My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 744: Chapter 744: No Matter What, This Fact Can’t Be Changed

“The Rong family took me in for over a decade, and during those years, Mrs. Rong, you knew better than anyone what you gave me. Apart from a place to stay, it was just a meal. My life in the Rong family was no different from that of a servant. Oh wait, that’s not right. Before Rong Weiwei was fostered into the family, I was barely considered Mrs. Rong’s daughter on the outside just because you had to put on a show for Mr. Rong, at least you weren’t blatantly obvious about it.”

“After Rong Weiwei arrived, Mr. Rong had an illegitimate child outside and spent all his energy on that child, rarely coming home. You started to do whatever you pleased. Sometimes you didn’t even bother to keep up appearances. No matter what happened between me and Rong Weiwei, you always took her side. To outsiders, I was your daughter, but at home, I didn’t even have my own room anymore.”

When Rong Weiwei came to the Rong family in the first year, she had ‘poor health’, suffering from mild asthma. @@novelbin@@

Jiang Meiqi, without a second thought, had her give up her room on the pretext that it was the best-ventilated and most suitable for Rong Weiwei to recuperate.

Then a servant was tasked to prepare a small guest room for her, one with the worst lighting and location. That room used to be where the servants rested; from the age of 11, it became her bedroom.

Jiang Meiqi couldn’t stand to hear these things, her gaze shifting as she stressed, “At least I allowed you to go to school. Apart from not giving you enough attention, you were still considered Miss Rong. What about Weiwei? Weiwei is my daughter; you’re just someone I picked up from the hospital. I fed you, I clothed you, yet you took Weiwei’s identity. What’s wrong with me asking you to give way to her a bit more?”

Rong Yan took a deep breath and countered, “Rong Weiwei is your daughter, but is she Mr. Rong’s daughter?”

“…” Jiang Meiqi wished she could tear her apart with her glare!

This little bastard, why does she always have to poke at her sore spots?

“Miss Rong’s family name is Rong, not Jiang! If it were Jiang, I think Mrs. Rong wouldn’t have let me ‘usurp’ the identity of Miss Rong for so long. By the time I turned 17, you must have been impatient already, weren’t you? By then, Rong Weiwei had grown up. You also knew that she had secretly snagged Shi Mufeng. Only then did you and the outside…”

Rong Yan swallowed the words “grandmother” and closed her eyes, tired, then reopened them, “Only then did you and Old Madam Jiang plot together, crafting the scene where I pushed the old lady down the stairs. At that time, I was already a disappointment to Mr. Rong because of an accidental pregnancy. He was always concerned with appearances and favored sons over daughters. He never held me in high regard, and my disgrace only annoyed him further. It was when he was most irritable and least wanted to see me that you found the opportunity, using the stair incident to send me abroad. It was all to clear the way for Rong Weiwei entirely.”

“You didn’t pick me up in the hospital because you wanted to adopt me. It was solely because you wanted to marry into the Rong family and had to ‘successfully give birth to a child.’ But the child in your womb had already been lost, and in your desperation, you picked me up and brought me back, pretending I was your daughter. If it wasn’t for securing your position as Mrs. Rong and a pampered life of luxury, you wouldn’t have picked me up at all.”

Jiang Meiqi, having had her last shred of dignity ripped away, clenched her fists in angered shame and said coldly, “So what, regardless of my reasons, you can’t change the fact that I took care of you for more than a decade!”
