Chapter 220

A few minutes later.

After everyone sat down, except for Jiang Ye, whose expression was still relatively gentle, Shu Xuan, Shu Chen, and Shu Hong all had cold and sullen faces.

Shu Xia looked very calm, showing absolutely no signs of anything unusual.

Only Lin Miao seemed very aggrieved, her eyes red; just as everyone had sat down, she insisted on standing up.

She bowed to Shu Xia to apologize, "I'm sorry, sister. It was my fault before. When I was at the Lin Family, I wasn't very good to you, thinking that you would take away everything that belonged to me. I was too panicked at the time, truly afraid of losing everything. After all, I have lived in luxury since I was a child and have never suffered any hardships, so when Mom asked me to come back, I refused. Because this environment was not one I was familiar with. Sister, it was all my fault in the past; won't you forgive me?"

"Mom, Big Brother, Second Brother, Little Brother, won't you forgive me too? I promise I won't be like I was before."

Lin Miao lowered her posture significantly.

She looked pitiful and endearing, very easy to feel sorry for.

There are levels to being a green tea.

The Lin Miao before them was at a high level.

She knew how to bend and stretch.

Shu Xia gripped the water glass in her hand; Lin Miao used the same trick for everything, and it worked every time.

The living room was filled with the aroma of food, yet it was so quiet it made one's heart beat with anxiety.

"Speak, what exactly do you want? Do you really think that what you did to Xia Xia can be forgiven with just a 'sorry'?" Shu Chen could see that Lin Miao was acting.

He was an actor himself, and he could see clearly whether acting was good or not.

She was just a green tea; he had seen plenty of them!

In the entertainment industry, there are plenty of people who apologize on the surface but are actually disgusting; Lin Miao's acting was a bit deliberate.

Do you think they are all easy to fool?

Shu Xuan had seen the video of Lin Miao and Fu Chenyan together; when they worked with the Lin Family to splash dirty water on Shu Xia, they hadn't hesitated at all.

He felt the same as Shu Chen: Lin Miao coming to their house was exactly like a weasel wishing a chicken a Happy New Year—she had no good intentions.

How could Lin Miao have imagined that the trick that worked perfectly in front of the Lin Family would be useless in front of these people?

Shu Xuan and Shu Chen did not care at all whether she felt aggrieved.

And Shu Hong was even sneering, looking like he was watching a show.

Even Jiang Ye was not particularly moved.

She certainly knew that Shu Xia would definitely not forgive her, and she didn't care whether Shu Xia would forgive her or not.

"I... I don't have any other thoughts; I just feel quite sorry for my sister. I was too ignorant before," Lin Miao immediately defended herself.

Shu Xia swept a calm glance at Lin Miao.

"My sister might even be younger than you; why are you calling her sister randomly? You look quite aged; if you look closely, you and my sister are a generation apart," Shu Hong sneered.

"You!" Lin Miao couldn't help but flare up at the sarcasm, "Shu Hong, I am your biological sister!"

"Look at that, she's showing her true colors," Shu Hong snorted coldly.

Shu Xuan stood up, "Lin Miao, you suddenly changed your attitude and came to our house; you must have some ulterior motive. I can tell you that no matter what you want to do, you will not get your way. If you were truly repentant, this would not be your attitude right now. The house does not welcome you at the moment; if you still have something to say, come back after some time."
