Chapter 345: Trouble in Paradise (1)

Of course, Meng Yanran knew, but what else could she do? She had nowhere to go and no one to rely on. Her husband betrayed her, her mother didn't love her. The only family she had left was her cousin, Lin Qianrou, who she had previously wronged. 

Was she supposed to seek Lin Qianrou's help after all the nasty things she had done to her when they were younger? Meng Yanran wished that she had been nicer to her cousin back then every time she thought of her predicament. 

When her family took Lin Qianrou in, Meng Yanran had foolishly thought that her cousin was trying to win her father's attention and favor for herself. She had been unreasonable and unfair to Lin Qianrou growing up.

After all, she was an only child and had never competed or shared her parents' attention with anyone until Lin Qianrou came to their home. She didn't want Lin Qianrou to get close to her father, and that was why she'd kept her distance from her cousin.
