Chapter 702: You Want Justice? Look How Capable You Think You Are

~4 min read 726 words

Zhao Dujiao looked utterly surprised and said, "Cousin?"

Chuxue stood before her: "Yes, I am your cousin."

She did not say the words "genuine as can be," after all, they had not yet acknowledged each other.

Jiang Suqing, standing aside and protecting Zhao Lulu, sized Chuxue up and down: "My ex-husband's family is in Subei; they have no relatives in the capital city. Moreover, besides having a younger brother, he had no other sisters. How could you possibly be her cousin?"

Zhao Lulu also wore a look of mockery: "This is truly rare. There are even people rushing to be someone's cousin. What is your purpose?"

Before Chuxue could speak, Zhao Lulu added another sentence: "Could it be that you think my stepfather is a workshop director, and that by getting close to Zhao Dujiao, you can open a convenient door for yourself? That is truly laughable."

Yet the moment she said this, everyone who knew Chuxue's identity thought this girl must have lost her mind. The woman worked in the finance department; what convenient door could her stepfather, a mere workshop director, possibly open for her?

Chuxue's face was filled with mockery: "I entered the factory by my own merit through the exam; I need no one to open any convenient door for me. Please, Miss, mind your words."

Seeing the crowd gathering ever larger, Jiang Suqing felt it was too shameful: "Dujiao, Lulu, is there anything we can discuss when we get back?"

Zhao Dujiao shouted first: "No."

Before Jiang Suqing could say another word, Zhao Dujiao fixed her gaze on her own mother, tears streaming down her face as she spoke: "If only I had evidence, I would suspect that you knew about the baby swap from the very beginning. Otherwise, how could you have seen me come looking, heard the whole story, and remained so indifferent? She found someone to ruin my chastity, yet you still want to defend her?"

"Now that I have finally seized an opportunity and worked hard to get a job, you want me to give it up to her. Why are you treating me this way?"

With that final sentence, Zhao Dujiao screamed until her voice was hoarse, moving even the onlookers who heard it.

Someone whispered in discussion: "Yes, by all rights, now that her own daughter has returned, shouldn't her biological mother hate the cousin who swapped their children? Shouldn't she hate Zhao Lulu, the niece who stole her daughter's identity and enjoyed her daughter's treatment? So why is she protecting Zhao Lulu?"

"True. After all, that cousin of hers abused her own daughter countless times while she was young."

"Perhaps it is because Zhao Lulu was raised by her side since childhood; she is used to protecting her."

Chuxue stepped forward and patted Zhao Dujiao's hand: "Rest assured. From now on, what belongs to you, no one will dare to take even a fraction, unless you do not want it."

Hearing these words, Zhao Lulu immediately flew into a rage: "You really think you're something special. She doesn't even know you; what kind of cousin are you?"

Chuxue ignored Zhao Lulu and looked straight at Jiang Suqing: "My eldest uncle is named Zhao Dezhu, and my second uncle is named Zhao Desheng. Are you sure they have no other sisters?"

Jiang Suqing's face turned very ugly. Just now, she had indeed lied. While her ex-husband was alive, he had often spoken of a lost younger sister. But even knowing this, she had to dig in her heels and deny it: "I never heard my ex-husband mention it, so I will not believe what you say."

Chuxue swept a cold glance over her: "Very well. I will apply to the unit where my eldest uncle served before his death to have them verify our identities. I will also seek justice for my cousin. After all, the suffering and hardships my cousin endured these years cannot be in vain. Furthermore, everything that belongs to her must be returned to her intact. I believe the unit will restore justice to a martyr."

Hearing these words, Jiang Suqing's expression became extremely awkward. She wanted to say something, but Zhao Lulu beside her cut her off: "Who do you think you are? Is the unit run by your family? You want justice? Look how capable you think you are."
