Chapter 136 Beautiful Things Disappear Easily (1/2)

Weiwei saw the symbolic building of LV headquarters stand towering in the street and show out its nobility and pride!

The wall decorated with classic material of leather bags was so unique and luxury! Looking for far, the building itself looked like a big LV bag.

The national flag of France was flying proudly above the front roof of the building, which had a history of more than 150 years.

Weiwei had to lift her eyes high to get a full view of the building, which was so splendid.

However, its glorious history and bright aura were mixed with the lowliness and vanity of so many people!

Weiwei once heard that the branch of LV in Shanghai had a bag of limited edition delivered from France and priced it at over one million yuan with an intention to put on the dog.

Unexpectedly, a girl at 19 bought it with cash the following day.

The store manager was so excited and happy that she closed the door to count the money.

When Weiwei heard the story, she was so jealous of the girl in secret.

Now, she no longer needed to envy that girl.

At the moment, long lines stretched around the store for there were so many customers. However, the store had strict control of the number of the people that were allowed in.

About a half hour later, Weiwei finally came to the pink handbag with LV logos and classic patterns that she had come to see many times.

In fact, she was not that into the bag and preferred the pink cartoon-like backpack on her back more.

One could also say that what captured her fancy was the LV brand itself. If she showed up with the bag in front of her friends, they would be jealous of her.

She paid the money with her bank card for the handbag, as well as a suitcase with LV logos and classic patterns.

She could imagine that when she returned home and met her mother and friends at the airport, they would figure out she led a good life abroad once they saw the suitcase.

She then went to Chanel and bought sexy nightdresses and swimsuit. Besides these, she also bought an expensive perfume.

She knew she could rely on her natural beautiful appearance and sexy figure and that the dresses she bought would be her “battle suit” and “arms” and add her with value.

Right then, her cellphone rang. It turned out that her mother called her.

Weiwei’s bright smile froze on her face, and she was on the verge of tears with her shopping bags scattered on the ground.

After she answered phone, her mother said to her in a pitiful tone, “Weiwei, come back. Your grandma and I miss you so much. I just want your company, is that a pushy request? Why none of you has ever really cared about me? Why? I need to be taken care of as well.”

Weiwei’s heart went soft as she imagined her mother’s tearful look.

Her mother continued, “My dear girl, come back. No one cares about you more than me. I’m really worried that you’re so far away from home.”

Weiwei crouched down slowly with a blank look. Her arms around her knees, she seemed to think about thing.

She trembled like a yellow leaf teetering on the branch.

After a good while, she cried. “Mom, is my dad my biological father? Why he never shows any care for me?”

Her mother remained silent.

Both her mother and she were overwhelmed with the memory of the past.

Weiwei’s father was a man who preferred boys to girls. When Weiwei’s mother was pregnant with Weiwei, people all concluded that it was a boy from the looks of her belly, which made Weiwei’s father smile from ear to ear.

As a result, Weiwei’s father was quite disappointed at Weiwei’s birth and wanted to raise a boy. However, Weiwei’s mother had not gotten pregnant since then.

Weiwei’s father never showed Weiwei any love until the day he found her grow into a lovely girl. He saw the potential of becoming a cash cow in her and thus started to treat her well.

He was addicted to gambling, and everytime he lost, he would take solace in alcohol. As time went by, he took to drink.

After he went broke, he easily got upset. Once, he went to a bar for drink and got drunken and crashed a man with his car.

The man was injured and asked for a compensation of five hundred thousand yuan, or he would accuse him.

It was true that bad things always came in succession. At the point, the family was penniless as Weiwei’s father had lost all the money in gambling. They had no choice but to sell their house and rent a smaller one.

After that, Weiwei’s father became even moodier. He did not go to work and gambled and drank more often. Everytime he got drunk, he would be Weiwei’s mother to vent his depression.

Weiwei’s mother was a sound designer of films with a stable income. However, she was a wimpy woman and dared not to stand against Wiewei’s father and remained silent toward his violence.

One day in the afternoon, Weiwei’s mother had gone to work, and Weiwei was washing her hair in home.

Her father came back at the time.

No one knew whether he was overwhelmed by alcoholism or he had gone mad that he came up with some evil thoughts on his daughter

Luckily, he was a weak man and greatly drunk that Weiwei managed to escape from his grip after desperate struggle.

At that time, she only wore a thin T-shirt and long pants she used to wear at home, and her hair was dripping.

She wandered in the street without any idea of where to go.

She did not want to turn to her friends because she was such a proud girl that she did not want others to see her embarrassment or to know her family scandal. Moreover, she knew temporary help could not solve her problems in long term.

At last, she had no choice but to turn to her grandmother.
