“Yes, President Xu had always been very successful in business all these years, but I didn’t expect that you had relied on these means to get everything that you have now. This is too dark.”

Ning Qing saw that Xu Junxi was pretty furious. His chest began to fluctuate violently. In fact, she knew Xu Junxi was not aware of it. She had just said that to agitate him.

This man was too proud and conceited. He would never exchange his rights by marrying Ning Yao. That was his bottom line and principle.

Now that she has slandered him and questioned his achievements over the years, he wouldn’t be able to stand it!

Sure enough, Xu Junxi pulled out the groom’s flowers on his white suit and threw them on his mother. “The wedding is canceled, if you want a Xu to marry Ning Yao, you should marry her yourself!”

Xu Junxi strode towards the road and left.

“Junxi!” Ning Yao rushed to chase after Xu Junxi.

The bride and groom of the wedding were gone. Ning Zhenguo stood frozen at the side. Li Meiling and Mother Xu glared at Ning Qing viciously. Ning Qing gracefully tucked her silky hair on her cheek behind her ear, took her grandmother’s arm, and laughed. “Okay, Grandma, the wicked have gotten their retribution. We should go home too.”

“Alright, Qingqing, let’s go.” Ning Qing and Yue Wanqing helped Grandma along, and the family of three returned home victoriously.

“Sister Xu, what about the wedding? Let’s wait for Junxi to get a grip. Yaoyao will surely be able to get Junxi back,” Li Meiling said as she laughed apologetically.

Mother Xu pushed Li Meiling aside angrily. “Look at all the good you’ve done. Now it’s affecting our family! How can I not know my son? He’ll never come back. The wedding is canceled!”

The Xu couple walked out under the escort of bodyguards, got in their luxury car, and sped away.

Li Meiling was left on the spot. She looked at Ning Zhenguo and raised her foot to walk toward him. She tried to soften her voice. “Zhenguo, if you have anything to say, let’s go home and talk. There are so many journalists here…”

“Hmph!” Li Meiling hadn’t even touched Ning Zhenguo’s sleeve yet, and he had already walked away with a wave of his sleeves.

Li Meiling’s face turned red, then white. She was so full of hatred that she wanted to kill someone. They had all left her. Had she been forsaken by her friends and family?

But the reporters hadn’t let her go yet. Everyone rushed to surround her.

“Li Meiling, please say a few words. How do you hurt so many people? In fact, it is legendary that you’ve made it this far in life. We’ve seen a lot of bad people, but you are absolutely the master of them all.”

“Li Meiling, are you emulating the operas and dramas you’ve worked on? Are you not afraid of retribution? Now that your daughter’s wedding has been canceled, do you repent, and do you think you’re wrong?”

In just three months, the reporters’ had changed how they addressed Li Meiling, from “Madam Li” to “Mrs. Ning”, and now they’ve just called her “Li Meiling” directly.

Li Meiling did not know who pushed her, and then someone hit her. Although she had worked hard scheming for so many years, she had no fighting experience at all.

Being surrounded by so many people, she panicked and said. “Stay away, I don’t accept any interviews, and won’t answer any questions. Please go away!”

But no one went away. Instead, louder and louder cries could be heard from Li Meiling.

“Who pushed me? Who’s pulling my hair?”

“Ah, I’ve fallen down. Don’t step on my hand. It hurts.”

…

In the luxury business car, Ning Qing, Yue Wanqing, and Grandma sat in the back seat.

“Qingqing, you were too bold today, Grandma had obviously not recovered, but you were not afraid that she would give you away. You asked her to memorize and recite all those lines. I was scared to death watching it unfold!”

Ning Qing held her mother’s hand and laughed. “Mom, this is the only way we can win. It’s called adopting full measures and taking the necessary risks to win. Besides, what are you afraid of? I knew you’d be able to improvise. As soon as Grandma doesn’t remember her lines, you can just pretend to wipe her tears away. Now, these so-called nobles won’t embarrass an old lady. Just leave everything else to me.”

Yue Wanqing looked at her daughter’s bright little face and touched her head lovingly. “You little girl, using even your mother for your performance.”

“That’s necessary. Mom is the protagonist. You have been wronged for three years. Today, Qingqing had finally avenged you.”

Yue Wanqing’s eyes sparkled with tears of agitation.

Because Grandma had fallen down the stairs, she had been wronged for three whole years and had lost her marriage and family because of it. Now the truth was out there. Her daughter had helped her clean up her good name.

How could she not be agitated?

Then Grandma went near Ning Qing and asked her for credit. “Qingqing, was Grandma great today?”

“Grandma was great!” Ning Qing stuck her thumb up. “Later, Qingqing will take Grandma to pick out some toys. I promised you rewards yesterday, so Qingqing will buy whatever you want.”

“Great, great!” Grandma clapped her hands.

At this time, Zhu Rui, who was in the front passenger’s seat, looked at Ning Qing through the rearview mirror. The longer he interacted with her, the more he was impressed by Ning Qing’s tenacity and wisdom. His eyes flashed with admiration.

“Madam, you have won a very hard-fought battle today. What do you want to do next? Li Meiling is not a fool. Once she finds out that Grandma has not regained her sanity and that all this was a play directed by you, she will take action! As long as this person remains, you will suffer endlessly in the future.”

Ning Qing nodded. “Rest assured, I already have the countermeasures in place. I will take advantage of this victory to follow up with an attack, completely defeating Li Meiling. I have arranged a decisive blow that will put her in her proper place.”

Zhu Rui looked at her soft little face bathed in the brilliant sunshine. Her eyebrows were moving, and her youthful pride and vitality could not be concealed.

He laughed. “Madam, when the president comes back from his business trip, he will certainly praise you.”

Speaking of Lu Shaoming, Ning Qing’s heart bubbled with sweetness. He had been on a business trip for two days. She hadn’t seen him this whole time.

Every night, her feelings sunk away like a raging tide without him.

Zhu Rui looked at Ning Qing’s shy and girly appearance and thought it was interesting. She had just been aggressive and domineering at the wedding banquet. But when he mentioned the president, she instantly turned into an 18-year-old innocent girl and became incredibly shy.

Sure enough, women in love had no IQ.

“Madam, it’s best to call the president at this time. It’s probably night time where the president is now, and he’s probably close to falling asleep,” Zhu Rui suggested.

“No, it’s alright,” said a red-faced Ning Qing. She murmured, “I’ll call…call him again when I’ve completely settled matters with Li Meiling.”

He always watched her actions from a high pedestal. She wanted him to see her achievements, and she wanted him to look up at her with great surprise!

Girls loved to show off.

He would surely be happy for her.

Zhu Rui saw through the girl’s thoughts and just laughed but did not reply.

Ning Qing was a little shy. She changed the subject and asked curiously, “Secretary Zhu, don’t you have to go to the office? Are you here with me every day?”

She always remembered that Zhu Rui’s salary was very high.

“The president has gone on a business trip, but the president is still worried about Madam, so I must take good care of you and help you during his absence. To the president, Madam will always be more important than the company.”

Ning Qing hadn’t expected Zhu Rui to be such a smooth talker too. Lu Shaoming was indeed surrounded by talented people. Ning Qing laughed a couple of times in her head. Alright, she admitted that her heart was in full bloom.

…

The Ning family Villa

“Mom, what should we do now? Junxi is ignoring me and has turned off his cell phone. Junxi doesn’t want me anymore. I can’t get into the Xu family as Mrs. Xu anymore. And I’ve even become the laughing stock of the entire city now,” Ning Yao complained.

Li Meiling’s face was red and swollen. Ning Zhenguo’s slap was too powerful. She was applying medicinal liquor to her face now.

She had been surrounded by reporters and had fallen to the ground. Someone had stepped on her hand, while others had stepped on her foot. Fortunately, the hotel security came in time, otherwise, her life would’ve been in danger.

She had never been so pathetic in her life.

“Yaoyao, don’t worry. I still hold the equity documents in my hand. Xu Junxi’s mother is bound to want these equity documents. After Xu Junxi calms down, he will surely marry you and bring you into the Xu family.”

“But how long do we have to wait? Now everyone knows that we have exchanged equity documents for the marriage. I don’t think Junxi will forgive us in the near future.”

“What can we do then? We can only wait.” Li Meiling’s disgust bubbled up and her tone was heavy.

She had been abandoned at the cannibalistic wedding banquet, and nobody had helped her; nobody cared about her. She went home in shambles, and her daughter did not give her even a word of comfort. Everything she said was in regards to her own selfish interests.

She was also human and needed warmth and comfort.

Ning Yao was frightened by her mother’s snapping tone and appearance. She immediately stumbled back with tears in her eyes.

When Li Meiling saw that she was about to cry, her heart softened immediately. She reached out and held Ning Yao’s small hand and pulled her to sit beside her. “Yaoyao, the wedding has failed this time. We can only wait for Junxi to marry you, but you have to work hard. Some time ago, I gave you Chinese medicine to help you get pregnant every night. Have you bedded Junxi? Is there any news from your stomach?”

Ning Yao stretched out her hand and caressed her flat stomach. her eyes were full of joy. “Mom, I’m not sure. I did it a lot of times with Junxi previously, and my period has been late for a few days.”

“Really? That’s great. Mom will ask someone to buy you a pregnancy test kit later. You can have it tested. You have to know that mothers in noble families rise in status through their sons. As long as you are pregnant with Junxi’s child, you needn’t be afraid that you will not be able to enter the Xu family.

Ning Yao was confident, but she was filled with resentment. “Mom, it’s all that little b*tch Ning Qing’s fault today. Why does she have to come and ruin things every time?”

Li Meiling looked grim. “Mom hadn’t expected your grandmother to regain her sanity in time for the wedding. And she caught us unaware and massacred us. If I had known this would happen, I would’ve sent people to kill Ning Qing directly instead of raping her. Let me think about it; I will find a way to kill her!”

“Alright!” Ning Yao nodded heavily. She believed in her mother, who had helped her clear all the obstacles in her growth path all these years. She believed this time was no exception.

Ning Yao looked around the villa and asked, “Mom, where’s Dad?”

Speaking of Ning Zhenguo, Li Meiling’s expression became defeated. She knew that Ning Zhenguo’s heart would be hard to recover.

But she consoled Ning Yao and said, “Your father has gone to the office. He is still angry. Mom will coax him. You don’t have to worry about our affairs. As long as you marry into the Xu family, Mom will rely on you to take care of me.”

“Yes, Mom, you can rest assured that I will support and take care of you in the future,” Ning Yao said sweetly.

Li Meiling smiled a little. Her cell phone rang. “Hello.” She picked up the phone.

“Hello, Auntie Li.” It was Ning Qing’s voice.

Li Meiling’s eyes grew dark, and her fierce and vicious eyes seemed as if she wanted nothing more than to eat Ning Qing up. “What are you calling me for? You’re laughing at me!”

“Oh, Auntie Li, why are you so fierce? Now the entirety of T City is laughing at you. You haven’t been this popular after even years of acting, have you? I’m helping you.”

“You!” Li Meiling breathing was unstable. “Ning Qing, what do you really want to say?”

“Oh, I want to have a chat with Auntie Li. I’ll wait for you at the Java Cafe.” Ning Qing hung up.

…

Ning Qing took a sip of coffee; Li Meiling had arrived.

Her face was covered with a veil, her eyes were covered by sunglasses, and she kept looking around as she walked. The woman snuck around in fear that others would recognize her.

Ning Qing sneered.

Li Meiling sat opposite her. She took off her veil and sunglasses and looked at Ning Qing hatefully. “Talk. What do you want to talk to me about?”

Ning Qing looked at her red and swollen face and her beautiful lips curved up. “Auntie Li has come earlier than I had expected. You are a rat crossing the street now. I’m really afraid that you will be recognized by passers-by and everyone will yell and chase after you.”

“Hmph!” Li Meiling took a sip of her coffee and said, “Ning Qing, do you think you’ve won? I was careless this time. It won’t be long before I can gain the upper hand again.”

“Gain the upper hand again? Auntie Li, are you kidding? Will Xu Junxi marry your daughter? Their marriage had been tied to a business transaction. Even if they actually get married, they would not receive any blessings from anyone. You have an equity document, but I believe you know Auntie Xu better than I do. Once she gets the equity document, she would turn her back on you faster than she could flip a book. A wife of nobility is never free. Do you think she will give your daughter a good life? Stop dreaming!

“Let’s talk about your husband Ning Zhenguo. He has been playing with you for 20 years and is still not tired of you. Don’t tell me that you don’t know that a large part of the reason is that you used to be the goddess of the opera industry, right? Men are all like that. He married a goddess and would naturally look up to you. But now the goddess has turned into a street rat. He would surely kick aside a woman who has no value, who gives him trouble instead of prestige. Besides, Ning Zhenguo is only 45 years old. There are a lot of young and beautiful women in the company. What’s a haggard old woman like you to him?”

Li Meiling banged her coffee cup on the table and said grimly, “Ning Qing, have you’ve called me out just to taunt me today?”

“What do you think? Aren’t you and your daughter the best at being dependent on men? Aren’t you two the best at using them? I’m giving you a taste of what it’s like to be abandoned by men. Does it taste good? You’ve schemed for a lifetime, and eventually, you ran out of schemes and everything you’ve achieved has turned into nothing instantaneously. Does it feel good to lose things? You used my mother’s body as a stepping stone and gotten a title, and you swept my mother and me out of the house three years ago. Does it feel good to be defeated by me now?

“Li Meiling, you have been dreaming your entire life. Now that your dream has ended, you should wake up!”
