Chapter 26: Your Mother Has Arrived!

She opened her mother Lin Huihui’s chat window on WeChat.

She had just typed one word: Mom

A few emoji popped up above.

Jiang Sui, who had spent decades in ancient times and still hadn’t gotten used to playing with smartphones, accidentally tapped the first emoji with her finger.

It sent immediately.

When she saw what she had sent, she couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her mouth.

[Your mom is here! .ipg]

These smartphones are just too smart, damn it!

Wait!

She could recall it!

Her finger had just reached the recall button.

Lin Huihui: “?”

She calmly retracted the emoji.

Then she sent a message: My mom is here~

Lin Huihui: “……”

She began to suspect that her daughter was up to something again.

She hesitated about whether to block Jiang Sui.

Block her? She only had one daughter.

Don’t block her? She was afraid she might die prematurely.

While she was wavering, Jiang Sui sent another message.

Jiang Sui: “In a couple of days, should I come see you?”

Lin Huihui: “Huh?”

Even through the screen, Jiang Sui could sense her mother’s fear from that simple yet profound word.

Jiang Sui: “Ahem… I’ve just finished recording my show, and I don’t have much to do lately. I’ll come visit you.”

Lin Huihui: “No, no, I’m doing just fine lately.”

Jiang Sui: “Oh, you’re annoyed, tired of me, huh?”

Lin Huihui: What’s Jiang Sui planning now?

Jiang Sui: “It’s settled then. I’ll bring gifts for you all. Love you, mwah .ipg”

Lin Huihui: “……”

She now suspected Jiang Sui had come up with some new trick to stir things up at the Shen family.

She really couldn’t object, so in the end she just replied with a single word: “Okay.”

Then, treating it like a looming crisis, she hurried to tell her husband.

“Shen Xiangdong! What should we do? Jiang Sui says she’s coming to see me in a few days! She even sent me a mwah!”

“Clang!”

Something crashed to the floor in the kitchen.

Jiang Sui had no idea of the kind of havoc she wreaked upon the Shen family.

After all, many things weren’t explained in the original script.

Since Jiang Sui’s parents divorced, and she grew a bit older, she often showed up at the Shen house to make trouble, acting almost like a street rascal, to the point that the Shen family felt embarrassed in their neighborhood.

Her character grew rebellious after her parents’ divorce, and she wouldn’t listen to reason at all.

No matter how gently Lin Hui tried to talk to her, she wouldn’t listen. She stubbornly unleashed a barrage of negative emotions.

Obstinate and headstrong, with a dash of madness in her daily routine.

Jiang Sui didn’t possess much empathy, only learning about the original owner’s state of mind through the system’s data output.

Hmm… It was basically the literature of madness.

Her relationship with the Shen family was tense and adversarial.

The two Shen brothers were also annoyed by her, avoiding her like the plague.

Seeing her was like seeing a harbinger of disaster.

Honestly, if a distant relative came to your house every day to act out and go crazy, who wouldn’t steer clear?

“Aren’t I just a supporting character? Why is it that every time I transmigrate as a supporting character, I end up awakening strange plots and backgrounds? Supporting characters should accept their fate, be a bit sketchy. Why stuff in all this family background?” Jiang Sui protested.

The system replied, “Everyone’s life can be summarized in a few strokes, but beneath the sketches, how many moving stories lie hidden?”

Jiang Sui’s mouth twitched. “Can you shut up? Why is a system suddenly waxing poetic?”

The system: “……”

Just as Jiang Sui was about to argue with the system, her phone pinged with a message from Li Lan.

“Sister, how are you doing? I just heard you quit recording. Need any help from me?”

Jiang Sui: “No need for now, Sister Lan. Heart gesture.JPG”

Li Lan: “Alright, if you need anything, just let me know. I didn’t get by in this industry for nothing. That crooked director—I’ve been fed up with him for a long time. Didn’t expect he’d go this far. But you’re really brave, sis!”

Before Jiang Sui could reply, Li Lan sent another message.

Li Lan: “By the way, here’s some good news. This evening, the crooked director accidentally missed his footing and fell off the stage. He’s already been sent to the hospital.”
