Chapter 107: Light in Her Eyes!
Translator: Lordbluefire
No one knew of her despair at this moment.
Also, no one knew that the number on the display of the weighing scale was like a beam of light that shone its way into her world of darkness
95 kg…
She had lost another 2.5 kg in a single day!
From 100 kg to 95 kg. Although she was still a fatty in the eyes of others, the meaning of this weight loss to Bai Shanshan was different.
She suddenly touched her face and began crying on the sofa.
She released her suppressed emotions from last night fully!
She still had hope, right?
She wasn’t as bad as they made her out to be…
Yan Zijing actually eavesdropped on what Shen Ruojing had told Bai Jingjing yesterday.
This was why they had intentionally left her bedroom door open last night. They wanted to psychologically impact Bai Shanshan…
She and Yan Zihao had been mentally controlling Bai Shanshan for so many years, so they had to pay attention to their prey at every moment. This was why Yan Zijing had decided to come here so early today as she wanted to take the chance to continue mocking her, making Bai Shanshan unable to lift her head.
But who could have expected that the number shown on the weighing scale would become lower?
Yan Zijing narrowed her eyes.

Shen Ruojing went to the Chu Manor after she woke up.
Last night after the variety show ended, she didn’t go to the Chu Manor to pick up Chu Yu. This was because she had promised to accompany the children for breakfast.
During the meal, the three children were discussing the variety show last night fervently and were guessing who Shen Ruojing was.
“I think mommy is the one wearing yellow. That person looked the richest!” Chu Tianye guessed.
Shen Ruojing replied, “No.”
Chu Yu took the chance to add, “Are you the one in blue?”
That person didn’t seem like she was fond of studying, hence, Chu Yu drew this conclusion.
Shen Ruojing continued, “No.”
Chu Xiaomeng took the chance as the two were speculating to secretly pass a stalk of vegetable on her bowl to Chu Tianye. There was one more stalk remaining and after considering it, she secretly passed it into Matriarch Chu’s bowl.
After she was done, Chu Xiaomeng smiled. But when she lifted her head and saw Shen Ruojing’s look, she trembled. After that, Shen Ruojing passed her three more stalks of vegetables.
The little fellow’s face immediately turned bitter.
Matriarch Chu who was at the side saw her little movements and involuntarily smiled. Hehe, this granddaughter of hers was just too adorable!
“Sister, which of those do you think is mommy?”
Chu Tianye’s words also caused Chu Yu to turn and look at Chu Xiaomeng.
The three of them only knew that their mommy participated in this variety show as a participant, hence, they didn’t pay attention to the people seated at the judging table. However, why didn’t these participants seem like their mommy at all?
They were vexed for an entire night.
Chu Xiaomeng stared at the veggies in her bowl. “The one in green? Mommy is as loathsome as veggies~!”
“Nope.”
Shen Ruojing propped her chin up.
Luckily at this moment, Chu Cichen came down from above. After seeing him, Chu Tianye said, “Daddy, you were also watching last night. Which of the participants do you think is mommy?”
Chu Cichen looked at the few of them, and his phoenix eyes calmly swept past everyone before he casually remarked, “The one in white.”
Chu Tianye. “Haha, daddy you are wrong! There were no participants in white last night!”
Chu Yu took the chance to speak up, “Heh, daddy is very busy. How could he be free to watch a variety show?” The underlying meaning of his words was that their daddy basically didn’t care about their mommy!
Chu Xiaomeng lowered her head and ate, feeling as though she didn’t exist at all.
Shen Ruojing’s lips curled and she didn’t say if Chu Cichen’s guess was correct or not. She then looked at the three children. “We are almost late.”
The three children immediately started increasing their eating speed.
Chu Tianye lowered his head and only then did he realize that there seemed to be something wrong with the food in his bowl. However, he didn’t think too much about it.
After they were done, Chu Tianye and Chu Yu stood up and took their school bags. They then ran outside. Just now, they had chatted too much during the meal, and it was true that they were almost late.
After getting into the car, Chu Yu reminded, “Check your stuff, make sure that we don’t forget to bring anything.”
Chu Tianye immediately checked his bag. All of a sudden, he thought of something. “Oh no, I forgot to bring my phone!”
He immediately lowered his head and called Chu Xiaomeng. “Sis, I forgot to bring my phone. Remember to take my phone on the table to the study room and don’t let other people touch it. What if they use my WeChat to transfer my money out?”
“Why are you so stupid!” Chu Xiaomeng seriously spoke. “…How can you forget to bring your phone when you are going out?”
Chu Yu. “????”
He quietly pointed to Chu Tianye’s hand. “Isn’t your phone in your hand?”
“…”
Chu Family.
Chu Xiaomeng hugged her soft toy and went to the third floor to read after she was done with her meal.
Shen Ruojing was preparing to leave, but then she saw Chu Cimo enter the manor while yawning.
His thick eyebags indicated that he didn’t sleep through the entire night.
Matriarch Chu couldn’t help but mock, “I think you will die from sudden death due to staying up all night playing games!”
“Mother, how can you curse your son like this? Let me tell you this. Staying up all night means not sleeping, but my body clock is too attuned to the timezone overseas. 8 a.m. here is 8 p.m. there. Even you can’t force yourself to sleep at 8 p.m., right?”
Matriarch Chu. “??”
She suddenly felt that it was quite logical!
Chu Cimo sat on a chair at the dining table and took up a bun to eat.
All of a sudden, a blast of coldness drifted over. It was only then did he realize that Chu Cichen was here as well. Chu Cimo instantly felt awakened. He sat up straight and his posture of eating also became much more normal. “Big bro, you didn’t go to work today?”
Chu Cichen grunted in response.
Chu Cimo suddenly asked, “Oh right, bro. I heard my brothers saying that Dugu Xiao is coming to Sea City. He is an international hegemon, do you know what he is doing here? Should I go and try to forge a connection with him? Maybe he wants to work together with our Chu Family?”
As he said this, Shen Ruojing, who was in the midst of walking out, suddenly halted her steps.
Chu Cichen’s gaze also deepened. He coldly replied, “No need.”
Matriarch Chu added at the side, “You don’t know anything about our Chu Family’s business, so it’s best that you don’t act recklessly. Dugu Xiao is an existence that you cannot afford to provoke. Even our family cannot afford to provoke a major character like him. What you should do now is to look for a wife…”
“Mother, I’m full!” After hearing his mother mention this topic, Chu Cimo quickly fled up the stairs.
Matriarch Chu coldly laughed. “Is your body itching for a beating?”
Chu Cimo’s footsteps suddenly paused as he laughed awkwardly. “Oh, I just wanted to catch up on sleep because I have an alumni gathering to attend in the afternoon. My ‘white moonlight’ will be there as well!”
“White moonlight?” Matriarch Chu immediately grew interested. “Come come, tell me more about her…”
Shen Ruojing lost interest, so she turned and headed out.
When she arrived at the car park, another car coincidentally stopped there. Fang Panxia’s gaze flickered when she saw Shen Ruojing.
If she wanted to visit the Chu Family, she had to give Bro Chen advance notice. She could only enter after getting permission. However, Shen Ruojing could casually enter and leave as she wished…
She felt angry in her heart, so when she was passing Shen Ruojing by, she suddenly stopped and spoke, “Miss Shen, do you want to know who’s the woman Bro Chen loved so deeply?”
Shen Ruojing paused her steps and looked at her. “Who?”
