After Being Cheating
Chapter 30 You're Just A Spoiled Child

After a moment of silence in the living room, Melody broke off the silence first: "Come to me, my dear great-granddaughter. Let me have a bite out of the cookies you bought." "My Jane is so great. She really can earn money herself and bring cookies for us."

"I haven't had the chance to eat this kind of cookies, let me have a taste, too," spoke her father.

"Ha ha ha, these are the most delicious cookies I have ever tasted in my life," said her grandfather.

Janet couldn't help but shed tears. She had now made up her mind that she had to work harder and harder to earn more money so that she could take care of the elders in the family.

In the evening, Ella was so deeply moved that she posted on Weibo: "My spoiled daughter got her first salary ever today. Though the salary was very low, she bought the most delicious cookies for her family. Jane's changed. My baby's so great!"

But some comments ridiculed her: "Isn't your daughter over twenty years old now? How come she can only earn money for cookies? How did the Shao family raise their daughter up anyway?"

When Ella saw this comment, Lola already had an answer for her: "Is it that wrong for a girl, who just graduated from college, to earn her first salary ever?"

But, among the few bad ones, there were also many comments that were positive and deeply moved Ella. She returned her thanks by replying to each, one by one.

"Jane is Mr. Shao's daughter, she can get any investment from her father if she wants. But she choose to work her way up from the bottom. What's wrong with that?" one comment read.

"The man who ridicules others is only just another sour grape, " another comment read.

Lola called Daniel, and although he said that the poor salary was because of Janet's mistakes at work, Lola still scolded Daniel for a good amount of time.

Then she called Ella, and explained to her why Janet's salary was so low.

Ella thought that it was alright, "It's OK, just give her the chance to learn more things. And again, there is no need to favor her in any way."

Now the child had finally stepped into the society, and learned about it and how it really worked. It was better to experience it for herself, rather than being under the careful guidance and protection of her parents.

But Janet was, in the end, Samuel's beloved daughter, and for the whole night his heart felt distressed at the thought of her daughter working, and so decided that she was not allowed to go to work any longer. Ella tried to persuade him, but failed in changing his mind. Finally, she said, "Let's ask Jane about her plans tomorrow. Isn't that a great idea?"

At Royal Mansion No. 9

The man, dressed in his white shirt, held a glass of red wine in his hand and, standing in the balcony, he looked at how the city was now unfolding in the distance under the cover of night.

His mobile phone screen was still lighted after he had finished talking with Lola. Then he took a look at Ella's Weibo post.

He found Janet's user account from Ella's followers on Weibo.

'Her mother Ella had posted on Weibo, but Janet, the chatty type, still kept her silence, ' thought Daniel.

But, soon enough, Janet also posted on Weibo: "I know how awful I look now."

Attached to this message was a selfie, in which she was wearing a pink nightgown, after she had just taken a shower, and she was covering her mouth with her hand, like she was in some sort of awe. The look in her eyes was pure, and indeed kind of nifty.

Daniel couldn't help but clicking on the pic and downloading it.

She seemed to be very popular around her fans, and soon received dozens of comments on her picture.

Daniel looked around through the comments and found only one which was negative: "Yeah, you're just a spoiled child."

Daniel browsed the man's Weibo page, and eventually found out that the owner of this account was a guy called Jeremy Su. He called Spark at once, and ordered, "Get Jeremy Su's Weibo account cancelled." He drank all the red wine left in his glass, clicked on the comment and then typed some words: "Everybody has his ups and downs; she also has some good, strong points.

Such as her loveliness, her purity, in some way..."

Thinking of what happened in the morning not that long ago, Daniel felt his throat suddenly becoming hot. He went back to the bedroom, poured one more glass of red wine, and drank it all in a gulp. He randomly threw the phone on the bed and then went into the bathroom.

However, because of Daniel's comment, Janet's Weibo was now stirring.

No one on the website had ever seen Daniel Si actively writing comments to others. He usually just forwarded his family posts or anything related about business.

"The CEO, Mr. Si, actually wrote here. Not a fake one, the real Mr. Si, " one comment wrote.

"Please, tell us what is your relationship with Mr. Si, " asked another comment.

"This is the Weibo of Samuel Shao's daughter, Janet Shao."

...

In less than five minutes, Janet's background information was instantly exposed by the horrible paparazzi internet users.

But, at this moment, Janet was still working on the design of her future shop at the computer, and didn't have a clue yet about what was happening on her Weibo.

Before Daniel had commented, Janet had only a few hundred of fans on Weibo. But now, because of his comment, the number was boosting in the thousands, and it was still growing by the minute. Soon enough, some of the employees from the SL Group gossiped online that Janet was actually Daniel's fiancee and future wife, a rumor which was confirmed by Lola herself.

Janet had now become famous because of Daniel.

Then, another group of internet users (that seemed to have sprung out of nowhere) told everybody that Daniel's girlfriend was actually Kate Song, the CEO of Changsheng Co., Ltd.

In just a shower's time, Daniel now became the bad, mischievous man, who had two girlfriends at the same time.

The media didn't dare to interview Daniel, and so they called Spark, but couldn't get any further detailed information out of him. Then they had to focus on these two girls and replace out what was really going on. Janet finally found out of Daniel's comment from a call of one of her former classmates from the university.

She was in shock for a while, but then immediately checked her Weibo. When she saw the amount of comments people had left, she was so startled that she nearly dropped her phone on the floor.

300 000... That was a lot...

They were so crazy...

'What had Daniel commented that made everyone go so crazy about?'

She didn't open all the comments; it was enough that she was reading the first top comment which, indeed, had come from Daniel's personal account.

What he wrote made Janet quite the happy girl, and her heartbeats instantly hastened in her chest.

'Is he really encouraging me? It seems he doesn't really hate me as much as I thought, and maybe I do have some advantages that he really likes about me. Is this what he meant?" she thought. Janet was indulging in her joyfulness for a little while longer and then she continued to read the comments below.

Why had Daniel become a bad man?

Then she found out why. Someone commented on her Weibo that Kate Song was his girlfriend and Janet was his fiancee.

'Now I see...'

Janet checked her messages and there were more than 99 messages waiting her to answer.

Many journalists and media men were now asking her if Daniel really had two girlfriends at the same time, and what was her relationship with Daniel like.

'What should I do?' 'What should I do?' 'Should I answer their questions?'

She was pondering on what to do when someone suddenly knocked at her door. Ella entered her room.

"Mom, haven't you gone to bed yet?" asked Janet. She sat up from her bed.

"Have you seen the comments on your Weibo?" asked Ella, "And a lot of people have also texted you, right?" Ella had experienced something like this before. Years ago, when the public found out about her relationship with Samuel, she also had received a ton of messages on a daily basis, asking her this and that.

Janet nodded.

"Ignore them for the moment. Let Daniel himself deal with this. If you do something wrong, you might bring even more trouble to Daniel, and it's not worth the risk."

Seeing what was happening on Weibo, Ella came to remind her daughter to be more cautious and not make the same mistakes as she did. Jane had been studying abroad these years and had kept a low profile, so few people knew who she really was. Jane had made her first steps into society and had never experienced something like this ever before.

"OK, mom, I understand."00
