Rebirth of the Evil Mother-in-Law

CHAPTER 1-5

Thinking of that, Fang JunRong couldn't help but let deep hatred crawl into her eyes. Her teeth bit down so hard that her lips almost started to bleed. Finally, the pain helped her clear her mind. She let out a deep breath and did her best to calm the conflicting emotions within herself.

She had no idea why she went back to eight years ago after she closed her eyes. This was before Jiang YaGe had joined the Li's, and her family was still the model family in everybody's eyes.

She looked down reflexively and saw a jade bracelet on her pale wrist. The bracelet was uniform throughout and almost translucent in color. It was dazzling under the light. There was a darker shade of green on it that looked like the silhouette of mountains. This bracelet was given to her when her grandmother passed away. Worried that she might inadvertently nick or chip it, she had always kept it stored safely inside the safe and had never worn it. In her previous life, the bracelet has gone missing. She was enraged at the time and looked all over for it. Finally, her son was the one who told her that it was stolen by a maid.

The bracelet should be lying quietly inside the safe right now. This was a peculiar discrepancy from her previous life.

Or was her previous life nothing but a nightmare?

No, that couldn't be. No nightmare would have so many details and be so heartbreaking. Just recalling the past events was enough to make her body shiver from hatred.

"Mom, where is my favorite dress? The one that Aunty designed for me? Which closet is it in?" came a crisp and lively voice.

Fang JunRong, who was immersed in her own pain looked up abruptly. She saw a girl with slightly curly hair and still a little bit of childishness in her look. The tip of her hair was dyed a red color and made her look cute and playful. This was her precious daughter Li XinYun.

She looked at her daughter's simple and cute look rapaciously, as though she was in a dream. When was the last time she saw her daughter so lively? Ever since she was defaced, her daughter had locked herself up and never left her room, as though she had lost all will to live.

"Mom."

"Mom!"

A series of cries brought her back. Fang JunRong blinked and got rid of the moisture in her eyes.

Chapter 2 - Previous Life (2)

Fang JunRong tried her best to control her emotions as she asked, "Which dress? You dyed your hair?"

Feeling a little guilty, Li XinYun touched the tip of her hair before she defended herself, "I have already graduated high school. You said before that I can dye my hair after the university entrance examination. Mom, where's that dress that was given to me by Aunty? I can't remember where I put it. I want to wear it on my birthday."

Her daughter XinYun was the only thing that kept her going when she was in the mental institution. She had reminisce over every memory of her daughter and every little bit of it seemed like it had just happened yesterday.

"It's over on my side. You didn't want to misplace it so you put it over on my side specifically."

"Oh yeah! I had forgotten all about it!" said Li XinYun as she stuck her tongue out briefly, feeling silly. Then, wrapping her arm around her mother, she said to her affectionately, "Mom's the best. Oh, right, mom. Do you think I can invite my classmates to my birthday?"

Fang JunRong had never been able to resist puppy eyes from her daughter. Now that she had gone back eight years and knew what was installed for her daughter, how could she let any sadness touch that smile of hers?
