Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw an exquisitely - dressed noblewoman walking towards them with two bodyguards.
The woman had a delicate appearance, and it was obvious that she must have been a stunning beauty in her youth.
What was even more astonishing was the pair of imperial - green jade bracelets on her hands. With their color and texture, they were worth at least 100 million yuan.
And the string of gemstones around her neck, as big as eggs, were the kind they had only seen in museums. How much must they cost?
Even the cheapest thing on her was the two - million - yuan Hermès bag.
Even though Jiang Zhi's group of socialite friends were from wealthy families, they had never seen someone wearing hundreds of millions worth of jewelry on their body.
However...
This lady looked so unfamiliar. They seemed to have never seen her in the upper - class circle.
Before those socialites could react, the noblewoman walked up to Chen Yuanyuan, who had been hurling insults just now, and unceremoniously slapped her.
"Is it you who's bullying my daughter - in - law?"
Everyone was stunned. "Daughter - in - law?"
Jiang Miaomiao was also shocked.
When did she become someone's daughter - in - law?
"...Madam, are you perhaps mistaking me for someone else?"
"No! I've been watching you for a long time. You're my daughter - in - law!"
"I'm not married. I really can't be your daughter - in - law."
Hearing this, the woman furrowed her brows in distress, then suddenly grabbed her wrist. "A future daughter - in - law is also a daughter - in - law. Anyway, I've decided that you're my daughter - in - law!"
Seeing this, the group of socialite friends exchanged glances and started to mock again.
"This lady looks rather unfamiliar. I've never seen you in the upper - class circle. I think those things you're wearing are all fakes, right?"
"If you want to show off, you should at least find out first. How could gemstones as big as eggs be real? You're just a naive and vain poser."
"That bracelet clearly looks fake!"
"Old woman, you wait. I've already called my dad. You dared to slap me just now. When my dad comes, he'll throw you out of Jing City directly!"
The woman furrowed her brows, looking displeased, and directly told the bodyguards to deal with it.
Although she was too lazy to argue with these people, they were too noisy. She didn't like the sound of barking dogs.
"Daughter - in - law, their constant barking didn't scare you, did it?"
Jiang Miaomiao was taken aback.
Although she also thought they were barking like dogs, but...
"Madam, I really can't be your daughter - in - law."
"Nonsense." The lady took out a photo from her bag, compared it, and became even more determined. "Look, you're definitely my daughter - in - law."
Jiang Miaomiao took a glance at the photo. It was actually her!
It was so strange. How could this lady have a photo of her?
"Never mind that for now. I have something important to tell you."
The woman pulled her into the adjacent dessert shop. The person who had looked so aloof just now suddenly started crying and biting her handkerchief.
"Please, please date my son. I believe you couldn't bear to reject an old woman like me, could you?"
Jiang Miaomiao: "..."
"Don't worry. My son is very handsome!"
As she spoke, she took out a photo from her bag. "Look, my son is so handsome. You two look so well - matched at first glance!"
In the photo, a man was leaning against the wall. His tall and slender figure was extremely elegant and upright. He had broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and incredibly long legs, making the ordinary school uniform on him look like a high - end custom - made one.
On the school uniform was the emblem of Jing University.
And that handsome face, Jiang Miaomiao recognized it at a glance.
It was none other than Fu Sihan, her sworn enemy in school!
In her previous life, she hadn't seen him since she graduated from school. Now, not long after her rebirth, she hadn't thought of this person for a moment.
However, although they were called sworn enemies, there weren't actually any major conflicts between them.
It was just that this person always opposed her in school, which really annoyed her.
The first day she wore a cool leather jacket and won the favor of other female classmates, the next day Fu Sihan wore the same style of leather jacket and stole all her limelight!
When she and her classmates were helping a scavenging old man and called on classmates to donate money, Fu Sihan directly took the old man to play cards. The old man won several million in one go, and due to over - excitement, his heart couldn't take it and he was sent to the hospital.
Also, when female classmates invited her to climb a mountain and she wanted to show off in front of them, Fu Sihan insisted on joining. As a result, she, who grew up in the mountains, couldn't out - climb this young master. She was exhausted, and when she looked up, she saw Fu Sihan standing on the mountaintop, smiling provocatively at her.
There were many other small things like these.
Apart from him disliking her, she couldn't think of any other reason for him to oppose her.
In short!
She and Fu Sihan didn't have any deep - seated hatred, but they just couldn't stand each other.
Now, knowing that the person sitting across from her was Fu Sihan's mother, Jiang Miaomiao was even more shocked.
"Your son and I..."
"Are a perfect match! Absolutely perfect! Like a match made in heaven!"
"..." They were sworn enemies!
Who could understand her shock?
The mother of her sworn enemy suddenly came over and asked her to date her son.
Wasn't this as strange as the sun rising from the west?
"Mrs. Fu, I really can't agree to this."
"Please... I won't let you help for nothing!"
Mrs. Fu said, handing her a contract. "Take a look at this first. Maybe you'll change your mind."
Jiang Miaomiao looked skeptical but still flipped through the contract.
With just a casual glance, she was left dumbfounded.
She could hardly believe her eyes.
Was this really a contract and not a charity act?
When she looked at Mrs. Fu again, she seemed to have a soft, shiny filter around her.
My goodness!
The God of Wealth had really arrived!
The content of the contract was simple. She just needed to pretend to be engaged to Fu Sihan and date him as an open couple for one year. The contract also thoughtfully noted that it was just a couple - playing act, and after one year, she could freely choose whether to renew the contract or not.
Moreover, the remuneration was extremely generous.
She could get a 20 - million - yuan deposit just by signing, and there would be a monthly salary of 5 million yuan afterwards!
If she chose to renew the contract after one year, not only would the remuneration double, but she would also be given a single - family villa in Repulse Bay and five properties in the city center.
In this way, wouldn't she have hope of acquiring the shares of Yingda?
However, something still felt off.
"Mrs. Fu, why would you agree to let someone pretend to be your son's girlfriend?"
If it were other parents, they would be lucky not to be angry when they heard their son say he wanted to find someone to pretend to be his girlfriend. How could they strongly support it?
Mrs. Fu rolled her eyes and looked sincere. "Well, Sihan has never had a girlfriend, so there have been a lot of rumors about him outside. I'm doing this for the sake of my son's reputation."
Oh, that made sense.
Jiang Miaomiao could understand.
But the question was.
"Does Fu Sihan know about this?"
"Yes, yes. It was he who asked me to come and propose this to you."
What?
This made Jiang Miaomiao rather suspicious.
Was Fu Sihan crazy?
Voluntarily asking his sworn enemy to pretend to be his girlfriend?
Thinking back carefully, she vaguely remembered that one of Fu Sihan's good friends had said that he was being pressured by his family.
So he was probably just trying to deal with his family?
But why choose her?
Could it be...
She got it!
