Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories - Chapter 253

Chapter 253: You Are In No Place To Compare To Me

Shen Lin widened her eyes and appeared ashamed. Her tears dropped down instantly.

But her heart was filled with hate.

It was exactly that feeling of superiority. When Shen Lin first stepped into the Shen Family, it was exactly that feeling of superiority that Shen Qianshu gave off, as if she was a princess who had everything in the world. Meanwhile, she had nothing at all.

Who is Shen Qianshu to deserve all of these? She snatched away the things that belonged to me and is acting all high and mighty. Why can’t I be like this too?

“I did not become a jewelry designer, but I am also a celebrity appraiser. My skills are highly regarded in this industry. Back then, you took away my designs, clearly trying to take away my career. You were afraid that I’d be better than you in the industry, but I did not become a jewelry designer. Instead, I am a top-rated appraiser in this industry now. I made it to where I am today in a down-to-earth manner. I don’t steal. I don’t rob. I won’t resort to being so shameless as to stealing other’s talents for my own benefits yet feeling no sense of repentance. Shen Lin, other than pretending to be obedient and vulnerable, you don’t really have any other true talents. What a big black heart you have. What a white lotus you are. If you had put in this much effort into working on your skills and basic foundations of designing, you would not have pretended to faint on stage. You thought I couldn’t tell that it was faked? You don’t even have the courage to compete with all the other professional and deserving designers. The others used their real skills while you’re just phony. You took away all my designs and have been living under glory that does not belong to you. So, stop being all pretentious and sh*t around me. I’m disgusted. And please, stop comparing myself to you. Regardless of the context, you are in no place to compare to me!”

Shen Qianshu could feel a headache approaching, so she turned around and left. When she entered the lift, Fang Xia ran up a few steps, wanting to yell at her to stop, but she pretended not to hear. The moment the lift door closed shut, tears began streaming down Shen Qianshu’s face. She raised her head up and widened her eyes, but the tears overflowed instantly. The mirror in the elevator reflected a sad and dreary face. She tried hard to hold them in, not letting the tears fall.

Yet when she blinked, the tears still streamed down.

Why could she not just get a little bit of trust?

Even if it was just a little.

She wanted the mother from when she was younger, the one who would do anything for her.

She wanted the mother who used to hug and cajole her whenever she cried. Qianshu, don’t cry. Here, have a candy.

She wanted the mother that she had before she was fifteen.

That was the best mother in the entire world.

Shen Qianshu went home and dreamed of her twelve-year-old self in her sleep. That year, Shen Xiong and Fang Xia brought her to America. The family of three were very happy. She was already grown up, yet Shen Xiong and Fang Xia were holding her hands in fear of losing her if she wandered away. Although she was not particularly good in her studies, she was still in an international school. The lessons were held in English, and her speaking skills were pretty good. She led her parents around the entire place. One day, she fell sick and wanted to have McDonald’s. Her parents went to buy some, but they did not return for long, even though the McDonald’s restaurant was just across the road.

Her young self was worried, so despite all the discomfort, she went out and saw that her parents, who had difficulties communicating with the cashier, were using a pen to point on the pictures of the food. They were all her favorite foods, and they did not know that they had actually ordered a lot of set meals.

The service staff packed out their food which was sufficient to feed over ten people.

Fang Xia and Shen Xiong were shocked beyond words.

She stood outside the glass door thinking: My mom and dad are so great. They’re the best parents in the world.

She woke up from her dream with tears all over her face.

Shen Qianshu washed her face and took a deep breath. All these years, she had grown to be accustomed to feeling sad and fearful. She was also used to hiding her feelings and pretending to look at ease. She washed her face and smiled. She was a happy Shen Qianshu again. She was still on holiday, so she did not go to Gubelin, but she went to Brilliant Entertainment to look for Lin Xiaojuan.
