Nangong Ci’s eyes were steady.
Holy shit, what kind of look was that?
He looks so innocent yet so sly!
What evil idea is this old guy thinking of now?
His dark eyes squinted heavily, before he could react, Huo Jingshen had already withdrawn his gaze.
It all happened in less than five seconds.
Nangong Ci:
Okay then.
He coughed twice, crooked his finger, and the secretary immediately walked over.
Nangong Ci lowered his head, murmured a few words into the secretary’s ear and the secretary quietly left after receiving the instructions.
Inside the sickroom, the Xing Family elders were initially very angry. However when they saw how hard Jiang Yi slapped her daughter, each slap harder than ’ the previous one…
Slowly, their expressions began to subtly change.
Finally, Huo Qinyu couldn’t bear it any longer and rushed over, “Stop it already, she has already been injured, don’t hit her anymore!”
Xing Guozhi also tried to intervene, “Yes, although Yanyan did something wrong, but…”
“No!” Jiang Yi interrupted abruptly. “Actually, the main person who should be blamed for this is me. I spoiled her too much!”
She tightly clenched her right hand.
After Slapping so many times, the palm of her hand had already become numb with pain.
But…
This is not enough!
Jiang Yi gritted her teeth, and under everyone’s gaze, suddenly raised her right hand and viciously slapped her own right cheek.
With a loud, crisp “slap”, she had only caught everyone’s attention when she had already raised her other hand and viciously slapped her other cheek.
After two consecutive slaps, the swollen prints of her palms rapidly emerged on her cheeks.
One could tell from this how hard she had struck.
Su Wanwan felt a sharp pain just listening to the sound.
Such ruthless self-punishment…
Very harsh!
The others were obviously stunned as well.
Jiang Yi explained with great sorrow, “Originally, because Yuyun wanted to cancel the engagement, Yanyan was very upset. She cried every day, even contemplated ending her life…I had no choice but to suggest she pretend to be pregnant. I thought it would be easy to get pregnant after marriage, but then Yuyun was suddenly injured and admitted to the hospital…”
As she spoke, tears were already flowing down her face. “I have only this one daughter, and she has been spoiled since she was a child. I tried to give her the best education and life possible. But I didn’t realize that excessive indulgence would harm her. Today’s incident, Yanyan is in the wrong. Her fault is…she is too fond of Yuyun. She can’t live without Yuyun!”
She looked at Su Yanyan, “Yanyan, kneel down now and apologize to your Grandpa Xing, Grandma Xing, and your father-in-law and mother-in-law. Admit your mistake and promise that it will never happen again!”
Su Yanyan finally understood Jiang Yi’s intention.
She endured the pain on her face, and with a “plop”, she knelt on the ground and started apologizing through her tears. “I was wrong, grandpa, grandma dad, mom, I was really wrong. I shouldn’t have pretended to be pregnant to deceive you, and even more, I shouldn’t have intentionally said that my sister pushed me… but, could you please not separate me from Yuyun? We truly love each other. I swear, I will be a good daughter-in-law to the Xing family and I can’t live without Yuyun ah…”
“Old man, old lady, Yanyan is only eighteen years old. She made a mistake due to confusion…show me the child who never makes a mistake! If you must blame someone, blame me. It was because of my spoiling that she didn’t realize the gravity of her mistake!” Jiang Yi, kneeling beside her, sobbed. “However you want to punish me, it’s fine. But really, it’s better to destroy ten temples than to sever a relationship!”
There was an absolute silence on the scene.
Nangong Ci was taken aback.
Holy shit!
This Jiang Yi is really amazing!
Her act of playing the victim, has turned the situation around completely Su Yanyan, who was initially portrayed as a deceptive and evil woman, is now seen as a naive girl deeply in love.
In this way, no matter how angry the Xing family elders are, they have to consider Xing Yuyun’s feelings and can’t forcibly break up this marriage.
Tsk, tsk, tsk, he suddenly felt that it wasn’t easy for his sister-in-law to grow up safely in such a family.
This mother and daughter pair is simply the ultimate white lotus!
She’s quite formidable!
No wonder she, with her ordinary looks and common background, could marry Su Yuntang. How else could she successfully join our ranks without certain methods and intelligence?
“Enough! Everyone, stop crying!” Mr. Xing, the old man, finally spoke, putting an end to the weeping throughout the house.
He said, “If you’ve done wrong, admit it. If you’re punished, stand tall! Regardless of the reasons behind it, it’s undeniable that Yanyan has made mistakes and attempted to frame others. As for her marriage with Yuyun…”
He sighed, “Yuyun is now…”
I m here.” A low male voice suddenly resonated.
Old Mr. Xing was taken aback.
Nangong Ci shot a couple of suggestive glances at Huo Jingshen.
Well?
Brother, am I not efficient?
Huo Jingshen returned his gaze impassively.
Nangong Ci: ”…”
Hehe, maintaining a cold persona in front of outsiders is pretty solid!
The reporters and staff have already stepped aside, making way for the man outside to enter.
He’s still wearing hospital clothes. His face looks haggard after days of injuries, and his body has become noticeably thinner.
When the wind blows, his overly large hospital gown seems as if it could be carried away by the wind.
But his expression is cold, especially those eyes, which seem to hold a layer of frost.
Su Yanyan, meeting his gaze, was so frightened that her heart missed a beat and she became flustered.
Jiang Yi’s vision went black.
How could this be?
We were just one step away from success. Why would Xing Yuyun suddenly show up?
Huo Qinyu quickly stepped forward to support her son, “Yuyun, why did you come here?”
Xing Yuyun straightforwardly stated a few words: “I want a divorce.”
With a “bang” sound, Jiang Yi felt as if her mind had exploded, and she had to support herself with her hands to keep from falling.
But Su Yanyan wasn’t nearly as strong; she collapsed on the spot, shaking uncontrollably with fear and panic.
The next second, Yanyan crawled over to Xing Yuyun like a madwoman, reaching out her hands to tightly clutch his legs, crying, “Brother Yun 1’beg you not to divorce me. I really love you, Brother Yun, please don’t divorce me Brother Yun…”
Xing Yuyun stood there, closed his eyes, and finally, unable to bear it any longer, kicked her away.
“Ah!”
Su Yanyan let out a terrible scream, as her entire body was kicked backward and fell to the ground, unable to get up for a while.
“Yanyan!” Jiang Yi rushed over hurriedly.
Though Xing Yuyun was injured, he was still a grown man. He hadn’t held back when he kicked her.
When she saw her daughter clutching her stomach in agonizing pain, her face was pale, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat… Jiang Yi turned abruptly, anger burning in her voice, “Yuyun, must you be so cruel? Can’t we have a civilized conversation?”
“This is the mess she has forced me into!” Xing Yuyun roared angrily, coughing violently as his wound was agitated.
Huo Qinyu’s heart ached instantly, and she quickly moved to support her son, Yuyun, calm down, watch your injury.”
“Fine, let me take it slow, now that we’re at it, let’s just air out all the dirty laundry!” Xing Yuyun clasped his chest, took a deep breath, and then delved into the story, one painstaking word at a time. “The day I turned 17, she drugged my drink, deliberately seducing me into bed. Later, she had someone secretly take pictures of us together, pretending they were illicitly obtained by a paparazzi, and sent them to the Su family to coerce my uncle into agreeing to our engagement.”
“I was wrong, Brother Yun. Please stop, Brother Yun.”
Su Yanyan wept and tried to interrupt, but Xing Yuyun gave a cold laugh and relentlessly continued.
“I had hoped that after the wedding, you’d at least behave yourself, so I could turn a blind eye. I thought I’d just ended up with a pretty, yet empty-headed wife. But boy, was I wrong! You created a scene at the wedding, shamed us publicly, and now you dare to fake a miscarriage to frame Wanwan? How many more times are you going to stoop to such lowly strategies? Will you always play the victim every time you mess up? Or play innocent? Do you think everyone is a fool? If it weren’t for the child you were carrying last time, do you think I would have tolerated you?”
Having finally vented it all, Xing Yuyun, his eyes bloodshot, repeated once more, “Divorce! I want a divorce, right now!”
“Yuyun.” Huo Qinyu looked at her son with a troubled heart, “Why didn’t you say all this earlier?”
“You child.” The old Mrs.. Xing also sighed with frustration, “Why didn’t you confide in us about all of this sooner? Do you see us as unreasonable elders?”
