CHAPTER 859: CHAPTER 770: DISLOCATED LIVES 58

Thinking about the Fang Family’s intentions, Wen Shuangshuang couldn’t help but want to sneer. She really had no mood to play mind games with them right now because she was feeling quite frustrated these days.

Originally, Wen Shuangshuang had already agreed with Wang Xiao and Mo Siqi to go to university together. However, this time she was forced to break the promise because she was reserved as a student for several IT experts and entered the Academy of Sciences ahead of schedule.

Although Wen Shuangshuang found it easy to learn this knowledge, Wang Xiao and Mo Siqi weren’t the same. They had joined the IT university initially because of Wen Shuangshuang, and now she couldn’t attend university with them, which left them feeling empty.

Even though Wang Xiao and Mo Siqi expressed their understanding, Wen Shuangshuang still felt uneasy and was busy compensating her two friends recently by cooking delicious dishes every day, tutoring them in various ways, playing games together, and going on trips together.

Apart from these two, she also had to take care of Wen Jianyun and Liu Yun. The couple had been feeling some discomfort in their stomachs lately and suddenly became childish, refusing to drink the traditional Chinese medicine prescribed by an old doctor because it tasted too bitter.

Wen Shuangshuang was busy preparing stomach-nourishing yet delicious medicinal dishes for them. In the meantime, she was chasing Wen Jianyun and Liu Yun around daily, with a bowl in hand, trying to get them to take their medicine. She was extremely busy and had no time to pay attention to the scheming Fang Family.

But even though Wen Shuangshuang wanted to ignore the Fang Family, they wouldn’t let her off. When she ignored them, they would call her up to eight times a day to strengthen their relationship with her, sweet-talking her in hopes of getting her to come back.

Wen Shuangshuang was helpless against this constant harassment. Not responding wasn’t good for the reputation she had built, so she got fed up and went to the Fang Family with a team of bodyguards. With such a strong presence, she didn’t believe the Fang Family could pull any stunts.

The place where the Fang Family lived was not too new of a community, not particularly good, but not bad either. The area originally attracted many buyers because of a particularly well-designed garden.

This lovely little garden not only provided a place for the residents to cool off in the summer but also brought many benefits, such as fostering harmonious relationships among neighbors, as residents liked to come and chat here in their leisure time.

Interactions between people naturally start with conversations, and with all the chatting, everyone became familiar with each other, a refreshing change from the general indifference and coldness found in city life.

The Fang Family’s house was well-located, closest to the small garden. When Wen Shuangshuang arrived, there were many people lounging in the garden, and considering her gifts and help, the neighbors had a very good impression of her.

Although a full line of bodyguards followed Wen Shuangshuang, intimidating many people, a few brave-hearted individuals still stepped up to greet her. Naturally, Wen Shuangshuang wasn’t arrogant and responded warmly, even giving out gifts.

Seeing Wen Shuangshuang’s down-to-earth nature, not putting on any airs, those who had initially been wary of approaching because of her bodyguards also joined in to chat with her, and Wen Shuangshuang welcomed them all.

Wen Shuangshuang spent at least ten minutes downstairs chatting and joking with everyone, significantly boosting their goodwill toward her, until Fang Zhan, impatient at her not coming up, stepped out to find her. Seeing her chatting, he reluctantly greeted her, and only then did Wen Shuangshuang bid farewell to everyone and follow Fang Zhan into the Fang Family home.

Perhaps Fang Zhan was annoyed by Wen Shuangshuang’s dawdling. Being used to being flattered recently, he tended to show his displeasure by giving people the cold shoulder. Even when people were upset, they overlooked it considering Wen Shuangshuang’s gifts, which just spoiled him further.

Now, after making Fang Zhan wait a bit, he wasn’t happy and instinctively put on a cold face, though he still remembered his purpose today, refraining from tearing into her with harsh words. Nevertheless, he couldn’t manage a warm welcome for Wen Shuangshuang.

Wen Shuangshuang didn’t mind Fang Zhan’s attitude at all. She had no feelings for him or the entire Fang Family, so whether they gave her a cold look didn’t matter to her. If they wanted her to do something, it would only depend on her mood and willingness, and obviously, seeing the Fang Family didn’t put her in a good mood.

Hence, Wen Shuangshuang had already decided that no matter what the Fang Family requested today, she wouldn’t agree. If they had any ill intentions, they couldn’t blame her for being ruthless; she’d find a way to deal with this troublesome group in one fell swoop. She didn’t want to be entangled with the Fang Family indefinitely.

When Wen Shuangshuang entered the house with Fang Zhan, all the Fang Family members were present. Interestingly, in this lifetime, her encounters with them added up to no more than five times. The first time was when she first visited the Fang’s residence, and the rest were when they came to her, asking for money.

As for Fang Zhan’s parents, her grandparents, this was her first time meeting them in this lifetime. In her past life, these two elderly people and Fang Shaosheng caused Wen Shuangshuang the most trouble, continuously sneering at her for seeking wealth over love.

Back then, every time she wanted to leave the house, she would be taunted by these two seemingly kind old people, accusing her of looking down on the humble Fang Family and wanting to return to the wealthy Wen Family. Wen Shuangshuang eventually became numb to these harsh words.

The constant criticism from Grandpa Fang, Grandma Fang, and the particularly venomous-tongued young Fang Shaosheng trapped Wen Shuangshuang within the Fang Family. Afraid of being labeled as someone who abandoned poverty for wealth, she was completely discouraged from returning to the Wen Family.

Wen Shuangshuang had never understood why her parents in the Wen Family in her past life were unwilling to see her, but recently she found out the reason—Wen Jianyun was diagnosed with stomach cancer.

Wen Shuangshuang had just discovered this when she recalled Wen Jianyun complaining of stomach pains, losing his appetite, and refusing to go for a hospital check-up. Worried that Wen Jianyun might be ill, she used her powers to investigate, only to find multiple tumors had developed in his stomach, confirming it was late-stage stomach cancer without a doubt.

When she first reincarnated, Wen Shuangshuang used her accumulated power to enhance her physical condition. However, after finishing summer camp and achieving her fitness goals, she started saving up her strength to prepare for emergencies.

Now the situation had arisen, and using all her strength, Wen Shuangshuang managed to clean out all the tumors from Wen Jianyun’s stomach.

This revelation explained to Wen Shuangshuang why Wen Jianyun and Liu Yun had been so cold to her in her past life. They had always deeply loved their daughter. If Wen Jianyun discovered he had late-stage cancer that couldn’t be cured, he would surely wish to tell his daughter first, just to see her one last time.
