Chapter 86 - Fang JunRong was very curious to see whether Li ShiZe would still be able to achieve the same level of success as he did in her previous life. (2)
Rebirth of the Evil Mother-In-Law
She knew that Li WangJin had been in a slump lately, which directly affected the quality of life of Jiang YaGe, the newly crowned Miss. That being said, everything was all relative. Her quality of life wasnât as good as the period immediately preceding it, but still much better than what her life was like before that. As much as Li WangJin didnât have a lot of money, heâd still give her some money. And that BBQ pork son of hers started calling her more frequently a few days ago. After picking it up the first time, she had blocked his number.
She wasnât dumb enough to be Li ShiZeâs ATM machine.
As she had divorced Li WangJin, many of Fang JunRongâs acquaintances informed her that Li WangJin was very determined to keep Wang Xiao in jail and had been pulling all sorts of strings and spending loads and loads of money over this.
Xu WeiWei said, âDo you remember Zhou Yang? She has been hosting an antique appraisal show lately, I think itâs called âThe Fate of Antiquesâ. Itâs quite popular for a show. She said to me that Jiang YaGe had applied to go on the show and wanted to have a piece of Xu FengWengâs work appraised. I seem to recall that you have given her a piece of Xu FengWengâs work as a gift when you first met her?â
âZhou Yang asked if they should stop her from getting onto the show?â As the host of the show and that Jiang YaGe didnât have many who backed her, all Zhou Yang needed to do was to say a word to stop her from getting onto the show.
Fang JunRong, on the other hand, was very happy when she heard the news. Her lips curved a happy arc. âWhy would we want to stop her? Let her onto the show!â
Then she asked casually, âIf she is going onto the show. Approximately when will it be aired?â
âIn a week, probably around the 6th?â
âThatâs great, isnât it? Itâs free advertising for me. We will be able to save so much. I am sure she is doing this behind Li WangJinâs back. If he knows about it, heâd for sure do everything within his power to try and stop her.â
When this blows up, itâd do wonders to Li WangJinâs reputation. Thinking about that day, Fang JunRong eagerly looked forward to the date that the show would be aired.
Xu WeiWei, after figuring out the intricacies behind it all, nodded and said, âThat works. Iâll let Zhou Yang know to make sure Jiang YaGe receives the best spotlight.â
Xu WeiWei was the vice president now. With Fang JunRong delegating most of the work to her, she was usually very busy. She needed to hurry back to the office after finishing her conversation with Fang JunRong. She did, however, enjoy her current lifestyle a lot.

Li XinYun, Fang JunRongâs daughter, came home not long after Xu WeiWei had taken off. She was frowning and looking very unhappy.
âWho upset you?â asked Fang JunRong.
She remembered that her daughter had picked up ice-skating recently and had been leaving the house early every day.
Li XinYun sat down next to Fang JunRong and leaned on her much like she used to when she was still a child. âBig brother called me today.â
âHe asked you to lend him money?â Fang JunRong asked right away.
Li XinYun sat up straight. Her eyes widened and looked even more round than usual. âHow did you guess, Mom?â
In a nonchalant way and without showing her emotions, Fang JunRong said, âHe never called me after the divorce to ask about my well-being but had been calling me frequently the last few days and wouldnât stop talking about wanting to start his own business and needing start-up capital. I had stopped answering his calls.â
What she hadnât expected was that her BBQ-pork son would turn to her daughter instead. That being said, XinYun has no shortage of money. She got pocket money from Fang JunRong every month and all the other red packets that she received were put away for her by Fang JunRong. Fang JunRong had also shown her some ropes on investments. Over the years, she should at least have tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions.
