After I awakened my inner voice, I became the treasure of my family.

Chapter 166 Jiang Mianmian's Sudden Enlightenment

"So...you mean, Mother just arranged for your mortal enemy to live in our suburban villa like this?"

Upon returning to the Marquis's residence, Shen Xiuyan immediately learned the details of the incident from Li Tingxue.

He had heard some rumors about the Xi family's scandals, but he never expected them to be so explosive.

Their family has both a real and a fake heiress, while the Xi family has both a real and a fake mother.

Li Tingxue nodded and said helplessly, "Yes, that's right! Mother has her eye on the other half of the Xi family's assets, but all of the Xi family's assets are still under Xi's father's name!"

Whether Xilin Yu will actually inherit the inheritance is still uncertain, yet Mother is so eager to fleece her. Doesn't she fear that in the end she'll have worked for nothing and gained nothing?

"Uh... do you think that with Mother's abilities, she's already made arrangements in advance, so why should she be afraid of not being able to squeeze money out of the Xi family in the future?"

"Hehe, do you think the Liu family will release her? The reason why Xi Linyu married Liu Wenrui back then must have been because she gave the Xi family a very important benefit. Otherwise, would he have been able to marry Xi Linyu?"

Moreover, not only has Xi Linyu not given birth to Liu Wenrui's child, she has also slept with his brother-in-law and gotten pregnant with his child.

Now the Liu family got nothing. Do you think they would let it go so easily after being humiliated like this, and let Xi Linyu leave the Liu family so easily?

And then there's Liu Wenrui. My mother said that in the original story, he always beat up Xi Linyu...

And regarding Celine's difficult childbirth, although her mother didn't explicitly say so, it was definitely sabotaged; it was probably done by that mother and daughter.

"If it was Simmons who did it, I could understand her motives. But if it was Xue Ningyue, it's still a bit much, isn't it? After all, Xi Linyu is her biological daughter."

Li Tingxue glanced at Shen Xiuyan and asked softly, "If your own mother were still alive, would you choose your own mother or your mother-in-law?"

Shen Xiuyan: "..."

"Isn't that right? Blood ties, while influential, aren't universally applicable."

Take Xue Ningyue for example. Even if she couldn't bring herself to kill her own daughter, what if that Simmons whispered in her ear and tried to persuade her with sweet words?

Or perhaps Simmons secretly took action behind everyone's back. After Xue Ningyue had already lost one daughter, could she really be so heartless as to personally send her only remaining daughter to prison?

Li Tingxue thoughtfully analyzed, "Anyway, Mother has already carefully read through all the plot details about the mother and daughter."

Celine died in the delivery room, and her heartless mother later received her just deserts—she tragically fell off a cliff and died.

Shen Xiuyan immediately reminded her, "If there is a suitable opportunity, we should try to persuade Mother to watch the storylines of the remaining characters as well."

Li Tingxue nodded in agreement: "After all, Mother is now obsessed with getting half of the Xi family's assets!"

Knowing her personality, she'll definitely find a way to create an opportunity. At that time, all I need to do is stick close to her.

Hearing this, Shen Xiuyan quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes, okay. But you must keep a close eye on Mother and make sure she doesn't act impulsively."

Li Tingxue readily replied, "Don't worry, no problem!"

…………

After returning home, Jiang Mianmian lay down on the bed as usual, preparing to sleep and rest.

However, just after she lay down, she suddenly opened her eyes and sat up abruptly in bed.

Jiang Mianmian suddenly thought of something, something very strange: it wasn't the first time she had been to Xi Linyu's place, so why was it that when she first met her...

Why can't I see any plot interpretation information above Celine Yu's head?

On the contrary, after this encounter, I actually saw the content in her plot interpretation?

"What on earth is going on? This is really strange!" Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"Could it be that I accidentally overlooked some crucial detail or condition?"

Jiang Mianmian began to try hard to recall the scenes of their previous meetings, not letting go of any possible clues.

But after thinking for a long time, she still couldn't figure out where the problem was.

Until one day, at a banquet held by the Liu family, when her gaze inadvertently fell on Liu Wenrui, she suddenly realized the reason.

Oh! I see, I finally understand!

So it turns out Liu Wenrui is just another unknown male cannon fodder character!

Moreover, he is one of the many admirers of the female lead, Lan Die'er! He fell in love with Lan Die'er at first sight and then launched a crazy pursuit, giving her houses, jewelry, clothes, and even large sums of money...

Thinking of this, Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

"Now I finally understand! It seems I need to pay more attention to these seemingly insignificant relationships between characters in the future; maybe I can discover more hidden plot clues!"

【I see. 】

Jiang Mianmian murmured in sudden realization, her doubts finally resolved.

[Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Liu Wenrui and Lan Die'er, the Gu-wielding heroine from the third brother's storyline. They've already met!]

[Ha, I knew it! How did I suddenly find myself able to see detailed information about Celine Yu's storyline out of nowhere?]

[It turns out that their encounter triggered Lan Die'er's storyline, which gave me the opportunity to learn about Xi Lin Yu's part of the plot, and even what happened to her family afterwards...]

[The tragic process of an entire family becoming cannon fodder.]

That's right, that's exactly what I was thinking.

In the second part of the novel "The Reborn Gu Girl is So Cool," this family is merely a background character, existing only as cannon fodder in the story.

The story is roughly about the female protagonist, Lan Die'er, who, after being reborn, displays unparalleled strength, overcoming all obstacles and dominating all sides.

As for Liu Wenrui, he was just one of the many fish in her pond.

Moreover, it's the kind of "fortune fish" that's extremely generous, its main function being to constantly "gift" Blue Butterfly with all sorts of precious items or wealth.

When the Liu family's own resources are insufficient to satisfy Lan Die'er, he will not hesitate to ask his relatives for help, trying his best to piece together what Lan Die'er wants.

This naturally includes his ex-wife, Xi Linyu, who had "deceived" him and even cheated on him, as well as his family.

In particular, the Xi family's enormous wealth became a target that Liu Wenrui was determined to acquire.

The Xi family's vast fortune did indeed initially fall into Song Lianshan's hands.

However, before these assets could even settle in Song Lianshan's hands, they passed into the hands of the Liu family.

An unexpected scene unfolded—these assets ultimately ended up in Lan Die'er's hands.

"..."

Jiang Mianmian stared at the dramatic development before her, speechless for a long time.

[Heh... How utterly ridiculous!]

After going through such a huge circle, we've ended up coming full circle.

I always found it strange how Lan Die'er became so rich! I never thought she made a living through her skills!

Unexpectedly, Lan Die'er didn't just make money by killing; she also had a large number of sycophants who constantly showered her with gifts.

[Thinking of how he had secretly reported Lan Die'er's crimes to the third brother, he eagerly anticipated that Lan Die'er would be caught and punished, and imprisoned.]

Surprisingly, this woman was still able to get away with it, casually strolling around town as if nothing had happened.

Jiang Mianmian trembled with anger whenever she thought about what they had done, and kept muttering to herself.

But the way he gritted his teeth made it seem as if he wanted to devour Gu Yunchen alive.

Thinking of this, Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but feel furious, and she cursed inwardly:

That good-for-nothing brat, the third son...

At the same time, Gu Yunchen suddenly started sneezing repeatedly without warning, "Achoo, achoo!"

This sudden turn of events caught him off guard. A servant nearby, seeing this, quickly stepped forward and asked with concern, "Young Master, have you caught a cold? Should we fetch a doctor?"

Gu Yunchen waved his hand, indicating that he was fine. However, he secretly wondered to himself: Could it be that someone is talking badly about me behind my back?

…………

In order to uncover evidence of Lan Die'er's and everyone behind her crimes, Gu Yunchen had to suppress his disgust and continue to maintain contact with her while pretending to be friendly.

They wanted to cast a long line to catch a big fish, and they wanted to catch a fish that would bring her to ruin.

Therefore, he is now like a cat, keeping a close eye on Lan Die'er's every move, not daring to relax for a moment, for fear that he might accidentally let the fish that has taken the bait break free of the hook and escape.

After all, for Lan Die'er, gaining favor with this ruthless villain was one of the most important things she had to do right now.

Therefore, she constantly tried to seduce Gu Yunchen, hoping to achieve her own goals.

Lan Die'er definitely wouldn't run away; she was still waiting to "win over" this big villain and had been trying to seduce him.

Gu Yunchen put on the appearance of a saint and gentleman, but he would waver from time to time, giving Lan Die'er a chance to get closer and keeping her hanging on!

Blue Butterfly has been quite busy lately, as she's keeping several of them in the pond!

Besides trying to win over Gu Yunchen, the other fish also need to be appeased.
