For the past few days, Mrs. Leng has been running over to Li Si’s house, not only to check on Leng Mochen’s injuries but also to gleefully gossip with Li Si about Zeng Qiuping.
Apparently, Zeng Qiuping eventually went to look for Leng Qianhan, hoping he could pull Leng Mohao out of trouble.
But Leng Qianhan refused to get involved and even declared that he didn’t have a son, only a daughter. He sternly warned her that if she kept ddling with that ungrateful son’s ss, he’d divorce her!
Zeng Qiuping was in tears, but there was nothing she could do.
And now, Leng Mohao has been implicated in a kidnapping case. This has escalated far beyond a re assault charge!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Leng felt a surge of satisfaction. Recalling the scene when Zeng Qiuping ca to their door, she still ground her teeth in anger.
"Serves her right! This is what karma looks like!"
Li Si munched on so fruit as she listened, finding Mrs. Leng’s words quite entertaining.
Today, Leng Ning returned from abroad, bringing along a birthday gift for Leng Mochen that Leng Qiankai had asked her to deliver!
After her trip, Leng Ning seed to have undergone a transformation. She looked much more vibrant, her eyes brimming with energy.
When the two t, neither of them brought up the na Lei Ming. Instead, they chatted about foreign cultures and customs. Li Si listened with envy, thinking that once she gave birth to her son, she absolutely had to travel too!
After chatting for a while, Leng Ning hesitated several tis, prompting Li Si to ask curiously, "Xiao Ning! Do you have sothing you want to tell ?"
Sothing about this girl seed off!
Leng Ning thought for a mont and decided there was no need to hold back with her sister-in-law. She asked openly, "Sister-in-law! While I was overseas, I happened to overhear two won talking. They seed to ntion your na during their conversation.
So, out of curiosity, I listened for a bit. Do you know anyone nad Xiao Xuan or Weiwei?"
Li Si paused mid-bite into her apple, pondering. Weiwei? Could it be Ye Duowei? No, wait! There’s also Ling Wei!
Overseas? But both of them seem to be in the country!
"I know two people with the character ’Wei’ in their na, but I honestly can’t figure out who it could be! What were they saying about ?" Li Si’s curiosity was piqued. Running into soone she knows abroad—who could it be?
Leng Ning took a bite of the apple Li Si handed her before responding, "Not much! They just ntioned that if you and Xiao Ge had been together, there wouldn’t have been so much drama!
Oh, right! They also talked about an engagent. From the sound of it, one of the girls is coming back to the country soon. Oh, and they even ntioned a child’s na—Beibei!"
Li Si, who was initially confused by the story, was startled when she heard the na Beibei. Could it be the Beibei she knows?
"What did the woman look like?" she asked.
Tilting her head, Leng Ning thought for a mont. "Hmm, one had long hair, the other short hair. The one with long hair seed to already be a mom—the child was nad Beibei! The short-haired one was called Xiao Xuan; that’s what the other woman kept calling her!"
Li Si deliberated. Yin Qi had long hair, so could Xiao Xuan be her sister?
Ah! She rembered now—she’d heard before that the Yin Family had a younger daughter abroad. Xiao Xuan? Could her na be Yin Xuan?
"So, sister-in-law! Did you figure it out?" Leng Ning noticed Li Si’s spark of realization and eagerly pressed her for details.
"If I’m not wrong, the long-haired lady you saw is likely Yin Qi, and as for the short-haired girl, she’s probably her sister Yin Xuan! But Xiao Ge’s engagent? The Yin Family only has one son, Yin Xian. He’s getting engaged? Did you hear about the big commotion recently, where the elder sister-in-law from that family punched a sister-in-law so hard it pierced her ear?"
Li Si found the situation developing far too quickly.
She’d only just heard about Yin Xian’s divorce from Ye Duowei a while ago, and now he’d found soone else to get engaged to? Wouldn’t Ye Duowei be absolutely fuming? Li Si smiled mischievously at the thought.
"Oh!" Leng Ning exclaid in realization. "I think I’ve heard about that family’s drama before; it’s all a ss! So, it’s them, huh? But sister-in-law, that woman I saw didn’t seem like a cruel person at all!"
"You can’t judge a book by its cover! I bet she must have been pushed to her limits. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have acted that way!" Knowing Ye Duowei’s temper, who knows what she might’ve done to provoke Yin Qi?
"True!" Leng Ning nodded thoughtfully. She vaguely recalled glimpsing the two sisters at the airport. Could it be that they were on the sa flight back as her?
...
The Yin Family, who were being dissected by the in-laws, was currently a lively scene, as their youngest daughter returned after years away!
Mrs. Yin couldn’t stop smiling! Especially when she saw the long-missed Beibei, who had co back with Yin Qi. Her heart was overwheld with joy.
After greeting his grandmother, Beibei followed Yin Qi upstairs to change clothes.
As he took in the familiar surroundings, a flicker of fear crossed his eyes, though it quickly disappeared. His mom had assured him that his uncle and aunt had separated and would no longer be here. He felt both relieved and a bit guilty. Could it all have been his fault?
He couldn’t forget the words his aunt had said, nor how his mom had fought with her in a frenzy at the ti!
Yin Xuan, grinning cheekily, hugged Mrs. Yin from behind and whined, "Mom! Did you miss a lot? Because I missed you sooo much!"
Mrs. Yin affectionately patted her daughter’s arm. "Of course I missed you! But did you miss ? If so, why didn’t you co back sooner? What, am I a monster who might eat you?"
This little daughter of hers—she had no idea who she took after. From a young age, she’d always been independent and headstrong! Once she made up her mind about sothing, no one could persuade her otherwise!
In Mrs. Yin’s eyes, perhaps only her eldest daughter Yin Qi could have any influence over Yin Xuan. Still, she couldn’t help worrying about her future!
"Oh, co on, Mom! How could you think that? I’ve just been too busy with schoolwork, you know? Don’t worry, I promise I’ll stay in the country longer this ti and spend quality ti with you, okay?" Yin Xuan squinted playfully, coaxing her mother into a cheerful mood.
"That’s more like it!"
Yin Xuan glanced around and pouted. "Where’s my big brother? Why didn’t he co to pick us up? That’s so thoughtless of him! I ca back just to help him, you know!"
Stepping onto her ho soil after getting off the plane, Yin Xuan found the feeling of being back wasn’t bad—if only her big brother had co to greet her personally.
Mrs. Yin pulled her over to sit by her side, explaining, "Your big brother is too tied up with work at his company to break away! Otherwise, how could he not pick you up? But he promised to co back early tonight!"
"Fine! Since he’s making an effort, I’ll forgive him this ti!" Yin Xuan murmured quietly.
Busy? As if his schedule was so packed that he couldn’t spare even a little ti?
Excuses, all of it!
Mrs. Yin then asked about her school and life abroad. Naturally, their conversation drifted to Yin Xian’s engagent to Wang i.
"Mom! What’s this new sister-in-law like? Is she better than Ye Duowei?" Yin Xuan asked nervously.
She couldn’t help thinking that if it weren’t for her ddling, maybe none of this would’ve happened. She regretted her impulsive actions back then.
Mrs. Yin didn’t notice her changing expression and sighed helplessly. "I think Wang i’s just like Ye Duowei—trouble! But your brother is determined to go through with this engagent, and I can’t stop him. So, I’ve just decided to let him do as he pleases.
That said, this ti we won’t have a grand celebration. It’ll just be a simple ceremony between our families!" (To be continued.
