Chapter 3 Are You Trying to Be the Shang Family's Daughter-in-law

The glaring sunlight slowly seeped in through the window while Ji Yan opened her eyes from her sleep. Then, she realized that she survived another tough night.

The scenes from the previous night stung her mind so vividly.

There was a knock on the door. Then, a uniformed servant came in with an indifferent expression, "Madam, Mrs. Shang wants to see you."

Ji Yan's body trembled. She had been married into this family for so many days, and this was the first time Mrs. Shang asked to see her.

She closed her eyes and replied calmly, "I got it."

She got up to wash up and changed into clean clothes. There was nothing on the dressing table. She looked at the mirror and noticed a red hickey on her neck.

There were quite a few of them.

Her gaze deepened, and she bit her lips so hard that they turned white.

It was left behind by the man from the previous night.

She changed again into a high-collared outfit and carefully examined the woman in the beige jacket in the mirror. She felt that nothing was wrong with this. Thus, she walked out slowly.

Originally, she should have lived with the Shang family members in their main manor. However, she stayed in this dark house for seven whole days.

What kind of treatment was this? If she still didn't know her position in the eyes of the Shang family, it would be ridiculous.

Shang family sent a taxi to pick her up. Ji Yan remembered very clearly that the Shang family drove a limited edition Maybach to pick her up on the wedding day.

No, it was not to pick her up, but her elder sister, Ji Gui.

After half an hour's drive, Ji Yan only realized what it meant to be filthy rich when she arrived at the Shang family's manor.

The manor was about the size of seven or eight football fields. It takes about four or five people to open the iron carved gate.

At this time, the gate was tightly shut, leaving only a small door open.

She knew that this was for her to enter.

She pretended to look indifferent and calmly walked in. Under the guidance of the housekeeper, she entered the main hall.

At this time, Mrs. Shang was sitting on the leather sofa in the main hall. The maid knelt down and sat next to her to trim her nails.

As she saw Ji Yan entering, she still did not raise her eyes. Instead, she said slowly, "Oh, has the imposter arrived?"

Honestly, Mrs. Shang really did maintain herself well.

Although she was in her forties, she still looked like someone in her early thirties. Her skin was tender and her body figure was slightly chubby. She also exuded a noble vibe from head to toe.

The jewelry pieces she was wearing were probably priceless.

Ji Yan replied with a faint 'oh' and said casually, "Mom, it seems like you've forgotten me. You were the one who personally sent someone to pick me up on the wedding day."

"You asked someone to pick me up. Do you think you can blame someone else for picking up an imposter?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Shang raised her long and thin eyebrows and slammed her hand on the table. She stood up with an imposing manner, "Who is your mother? You have to address me as Mrs. Shang just like how they do here!"

Ji Yan stood there respectfully, neither humble nor pushy. Then, she said, "Yes, but I also remember that Shang Jinshen and I are legal couples who are under the national law protection, and I am not Shang family's servant."

"Are you trying to be the Shang family's daughter-in-law?"

Mrs. Shang knitted her brows with a cold expression. Then, she said, "Just look at yourself! Can't you tell what kind of person you are? Look at how poor your parents are!"

Ji Yan nodded and said, "My parents are quite poor. Otherwise, they won't let me marry into this family on behalf of my sister."

One couldn't point out any mistake from her indifferent look even after a long time!

Mrs. Shang turned pale and repeated, "You, you, you, you" for a long time. Yet, she could not explain herself.

At this point, there was a low and deep male voice heard from outside the door. He said, "Mom, since Ji Yan is already Shang family's daughter-in-law, don't you make things difficult for her anymore."
