Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Manman, I haven’t seen you for a while. You’ve become so beautiful.”
A high-pitched voice was heard. Jiang Manman suddenly turned around and ran away.
Jiang Li’s hearing was excellent. When she heard this voice, her cold face revealed a playful expression.
This was interesting.
The Xu family came to visit.
“Oh, Madam Xu, why didn’t you tell us that you were coming? Young Master Xu is here too… Ahem, after not seeing him for a few months, this child has become much more energetic.”
Mother Jiang tried her best to remain calm, but her voice was still a little shaky.
They even brought Young Master Xu with them?
This time, Jiang Man was going to meet her fiancé.
Jiang Li arranged for Elder Mo to stay in the guest room. As soon as She came out, she saw Mother Jiang knocking on Jiang Man’s room door.
“Manman, you can’t hide like this. Think about it, our family can’t do anything about it. We even asked the Xu family for help. That’s why we have to make things difficult for you.”
“Manman, just come out and see Young Master Xu. Just meet him and say hello. Don’t let others say that your upbringing isn’t good.”
Jiang Manman opened the door fiercely. The makeup on her face was all messed up from crying. She lowered her voice and roared.
“I don’t want to see that cerebral palsy guy. He’s ugly and scary. I don’t want to see him!”
Mother Jiang’s heart ached so much that she did not know what to do. When she turned around and saw Jiang Li, the hatred on her face became even stronger.
“It’s all your fault, you wretched girl. You were the one who should be marrying Young Master Xu!”
Jiang Li laughed in her heart.
“Mom, you must be regretting it to death when you brought me here.”
“You wretched girl, get down now and go see Young Master Xu on behalf of Manman!”
Mother Jiang was using this trick again to use Jiang Li as a substitute. Jiang Li was sure that mother Jiang would agree without any hesitation even if she were to let her own daughter die in place of the fake daughter, Jiang Man.
Jiang Li’s face was cold. Her mother’s idea was really interesting.
“What are you looking at? Go change into your sister’s clothes and put on some makeup. Otherwise, I’ll throw the old man you brought back out!”
Mother Jiang looked ferocious as if she was going to swallow her alive.
“Yes, mother.” Jiang Li smiled. Since it was their request, she would give them a good show.
Her slim figure looked a little loose in Jiang Man’s dresses.
Jiang Li and Jiang Man actually looked 70% similar, but their temperaments were completely different.
The flashy dresses that Jiang man usually liked were worn by Jiang Li at this moment. When compared to her cold face, there was a sense of contradiction and devilish beauty, which made her even more beautiful than Jiang Man.
Jiang Man was so jealous that her eyes were bleeding.
“Humph, if you weren’t useful, you country bumpkin wouldn’t be worthy of wearing my noble dress. You really don’t look like the crown prince even if you wear a dragon robe.”
“Yes, sister. Don’t worry. I will definitely put my usefulness to good use and help you negotiate the marriage.”
A faint smile appeared on Jiang Li’s face. She took out a comb and tied her hair into a braid that looked like Jiang Man’s. She put on the pink makeup that Jiang Man liked. Then, she turned her head and restrained the domineering and arrogant aura in her eyes. She looked exactly like Jiang Man.
Jiang Li walked down the stairs slowly with Jiang Man’s swaying small steps.
Everyone was stunned when they saw her. Even Jiang Man’s parents were stunned. They thought that Jiang Man had changed her mind and came down personally.
“Hello, Aunt Xu, Uncle Xu. I’m sorry for running away just now because I was too shy.”
When Jiang Li opened her mouth, her voice changed miraculously. It was no longer as cold as before. Instead, it became soft and weak like Jiang Man’s voice.

“Manman…” Mother Jiang could no longer tell what was real and what was fake.
When Jiang Li turned around and gave Mother Jiang a mischievous smile, Mother Jiang suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
It was too similar.
Father Xu and Mother Xu were pleasantly surprised.
“Sigh, Manman, it’s okay, it’s okay. Quick, sit down.”
As Mother Xu spoke, she came up and grabbed Jiang Li affectionately. “The Taoist priest said that Manman’s Four Pillars of Destiny are very beneficial to our Jian’er. As long as Manman marries him, Jian’er’s body will definitely recover.”
Father Jiang and Mother Jiang quickly declined.
“But Manman is still young and immature. We were thinking about only holding the wedding after a few years.”
