<h4>Chapter 1178: Trickery（1）</h4>


    “Then why were you spewing those words of jealousy? Do you think you’re Lina’s real daughter?”


    Xu Cheng was Huang Ying’s daughter. Bringing her up for so many years, Huang Ying knew her like the back of her hand. From the words she said, what she did, and how she felt, Huang Ying knew everything.


    When Xu Cheng said those words, she was clearly not thinking straight. She was obviously jealous of Ling Tianya, jealous that Lina had gifted her a ne. It was as if Xu Cheng already thought of herself as Lina’s biological daughter.


    As soon as she realized this, Huang Ying felt the need to remind Xu Cheng who her biological mother was.


    Upon hearing Huang Ying’s question, Xu Cheng tensed up,shing out angrily, “What are you saying, I don’t think that!”


    “If you don’t, why are you getting angry!” Her rage meant she had a guilty conscience.


    Instead, under Huang Ying’s inquiry, Xu Cheng indeed started feeling guilty. The more guilt she felt, the more she raised her voice to mask her guilt.


    “When did I get angry!” Xu Cheng shouted, “Besides, if not for you, I wouldn’t have pretended to be someone else’s daughter. If not for the ridiculous things you did back then, why would I have to take such a big risk?”


    Xu Cheng’s words made Huang Ying bite her tongue.


    It was true. She did agree to Xu Cheng pretending to be Lina’s daughter, she agreed to the idea massively. What Xu Cheng had to say when speaking to Lina was also something Huang Ying had taught her herself.


    But, she didn’t know why, based on Xu Cheng’s current attitude, Huang Ying started to feel uneasy. There was even a moment where she questioned if what she had done was wrong.


    However, as things were now, Xu Cheng had already presented herself to Lina as her long lost daughter. There was no turning back.


    Seeing how Huang Ying no longer spoke, how her expression was somehow filled with sadness, Xu Cheng’s rage, fueled by her guilt, gradually quelled. Comforting Huang Ying, she said, “Don’t overthink. Eric said that Lina is an intelligent woman. So, we’ll have to approach everything with great care, so we do not expose ourselves. You know me well. I have never told such a big lie before. It was also a first for me, pretending to be someone else’s daughter. If I don’t show my real feelings, I’ll be sure to expose myself easily. Furthermore, Lina didn’t show much care to me today. It feels as if she doesn’t quite believe that I’m her daughter, which is why I’m taking so much care now.”


    Upon hearing those words, Huang Ying appeared to lookforted, immediately saying, “Since you’ll be going for a DNA test on Monday, we should make sure to get our hands on Ling Tianya’s hair as soon as possible.”


    “Right, my exact thought. But, we were technically chased out of the Ruan Family. Without a good reason, it would appear weird if we just returned out of the blue. Even if we made our way in, it would be difficult to get our hands on Ling Tianya’s hair,” Xu Chengmented bitterly.


    Just then, Xu Cheng’s door was pushed open with great force.


    With the abrupt motion, Xu Cheng and Huang Ying, who were both in the room, got a big shock. Their faces, etched with fear, looked towards the olddy’s face filled with rage.


    “Grandmother...”


    “Mother...”


    They hadn’t mentioned any of this to the olddy yet. They didn’t know how she would feel, so they wanted to wait until everything was done, when Lina had imed Xu Cheng as her own, before telling her.


    As unrepressed rage spread across the olddy’s features, the duo’s hearts began to race, not knowing how much she heard.


    “Great! I was thinking about what both of you were up to, not at home the whole afternoon. So, it seems like you both were busy swindling others!”
