It turns out that Zeng Qiuping, after hearing Leng Mo talk about encountering Yin Xian’s ex-wife that day, decided to go warn Ye Duowei, firmly telling her to back off.
Although she did have so past acquaintanceship with Ye Cheng’s family, when it ca to her own family’s matters, she had no intention of considering any old ties.
Besides, Ye Cheng and Ye Duowei’s mother had already divorced.
Why should she care anymore?
Zeng Qiuping found out that Ye Duowei wasn’t at ho but was at the hospital taking care of her mother.
So she seized the opportunity to confront Ye Duowei while she stepped out of the hospital to buy sothing, intending to have a talk with her.
After issuing her warnings, Ye Duowei promised she wouldn’t disrupt Yin Xian’s life anymore.
At the sa ti, Ye Duowei skillfully brought up her remarks at the dumpling shop that day, revealing to Zeng Qiuping that Yin Xian still had feelings for Li Si!
Zeng Qiuping was outraged upon hearing this.
Not only was Leng Ning’s ddling obnoxious, but now Li Si, a married woman, was still so adept at attracting attention?
Zeng Qiuping completely lost her temper!
She felt justified and decided she must confront them both face-to-face!
Why should her daughter Leng Mo, who had finally found a boyfriend, have all these people stirring up trouble for her?
That’s why Zeng Qiuping first went to Ouyang Yan’s house and, failing to find her, went straight to et Li Si.
Ye Duowei watched Zeng Qiuping’s furious ltdown and smiled smugly in secret! No matter if the issue had anything to do with Li Si, she was determined to redirect the bla onto Li Si.
After all, Yin Xian was involved with a Leng Family girl! Nobody should have it easy!
Zeng Qiuping never expected her impulsive actions would lead Mr. Leng Sr. to summon her back to the old estate and issue an ultimatum.
If Leng Mo continued her relationship with Yin Xian, not only would she lose any shares, but she also shouldn’t anticipate any annual dividends in the future.
Zeng Qiuping tried every approach—soft and hard—to persuade the old man but couldn’t change his decision.
She left the estate in a huff and angrily drove back ho.
Before stepping inside her house, she checked herself in the mirror again, carefully covering the wounds on her face.
In truth, as she stood at her front door, she felt a little guilty—if Leng Qianhan found out she had caused trouble at his nephew Leng Mochen’s house, he’d surely explode with anger.
Still, she figured the old man likely wouldn’t tell him about this incident, and as for Ouyang Yan, she wasn’t so sure.
With anxiety in her heart, she turned off the car ignition and went inside, only to be t with Leng Qianhan’s overwhelming fury.
Leng Qianhan coldly glared at her and grabbed a heavy ashtray from the coffee table, smashing it at her feet.
"Ah!" Zeng Qiuping shrieked and hastily dodged.
"Zeng Qiuping! Look at the ss you’ve made! Do you have a death wish? You went to Mochen’s house and acted out! Do you have no sha? You’ve disgraced completely! How am I supposed to face them in the future?"
Zeng Qiuping timidly tried to defend herself: "Qianhan! I was just too upset. Leng Mo and Yin Xian’s breakup was all caused by their family’s interference! And you have no idea—don’t be fooled by Li Si’s innocent appearance; she’s just as bad, sohow seducing Yin Xian to have feelings for her."
She still believed she was in the right!
Leng Qianhan pointed at her, extrely disappointed: "You can even say such things? Do you have no brain? Leng Mo breaking up with Yin Xian—so what? It’s a good thing! Why do you always place the bla on others? Fine! No need for any more chaos. Tomorrow, we’re going to deal with the paperwork!"
Leng Qianhan felt like he’d had enough!
How could he have ended up with a wife like this?
In the past, Zeng Qiuping wasn’t too bad—she carried herself well both at ho and in social settings.
But after their son was sentenced and imprisoned, she changed completely, turning into soone he could hardly recognize.
If it hadn’t been for Ouyang Yan’s call to him earlier, he wouldn’t have even known about his wife’s latest outrageous behavior.
As for Leng Mo and Yin Xian, he had expressed disapproval when he learned of it.
But seeing his daughter finally garner so social interest, he didn’t want to crush her efforts too harshly.
So, he adopted a wait-and-see attitude.
But now—what on earth was this ridiculous ss?
How could his wife, a supposed elder, go to Mochen’s ho, scream obscenities at the door, and fabricate lies?
How could he hold his head up anymore? How could he navigate society?
Zeng Qiuping was startled and dumbfounded, her mouth agape in disbelief. She had anticipated Leng Qianhan’s furious scolding after he learned of the incident.
While she had ntally prepared herself, she hadn’t expected him to ntion divorce.
She faltered for a mont, then quickly rushed forward a few steps, nervously clutching Leng Qianhan’s arm. Tears stread down her face: "Qianhan! I was wrong! I admit my fault—can’t that be enough? I was acting on impulse, and I’ll change! I promise I’ll change!"
Leng Qianhan shook her hand away in disgust, pointing angrily at her nose: "Do you think I still believe you? Zeng Qiuping, what has happened to you? How did you end up like this?
It was you who pushed our daughter’s involvent with that Yin Xian. Both our daughter and I were kept in the dark.
Our daughter barely concerns herself with anything beyond the hospital and ho; how would she know what’s really going on?
If our daughter knew who Yin Xian really was, do you think she’d be interested in him? Do you not know who Yin Xian’s ex-wife is?
And with Mochen’s wife’s scandal-ridden background, how the dia has portrayed her—do you not know either? Yet now you’re throwing dirt on her too!"
Zeng Qiuping sobbed as she tried to justify herself: "Wuwu... Qianhan! I just lost my head for a mont, but Yin Xian’s conditions really aren’t bad! You’ve seen it yourself; although Leng Mo’s own qualities are decent, she’s already thirty years old. At this age, what good matches can she still find?
Sure, a younger boyfriend might be less ideal, but how many older ones are actually good? And the good ones? They’re all looking for girls in their early twenties!"
Leng Qianhan sneered after hearing her explanation: "You speak so well! Zeng Qiuping, can you honestly say you didn’t have ulterior motives?
You knew full well what kind of grudges the second branch of the family has with Yin Xian’s family, yet you kept ddling.
What are you doing if not deliberately causing trouble for them?
Let tell you, Zeng Qiuping—I truly regret this. I regret not divorcing you sooner! You’ve hard our daughter, created chaos in our family, and robbed us of peace!
Don’t bother arguing anymore—I don’t want to hear it. First thing tomorrow morning, we’re going to the civil affairs bureau to process the divorce papers!
I’ll risk losing face entirely; what’s left to be afraid of? You’ve already dragged my reputation through the mud!"
"No! Qianhan! I don’t agree! After all these years of marriage, are you really going to end it over this?
I bore your children and managed our household inside and out, working tirelessly day after day—can’t you have a shred of sentint for ?
And, and..."
Panic-stricken, Zeng Qiuping desperately grasped for examples of her dedication and sacrifice; she was truly terrified!
At her age, with her youthful beauty long gone, what was the worst fear?
The greatest fear was that the successful man beside her would divorce her and abandon her.
If Leng Qianhan truly divorced her, it wouldn’t take long for others to introduce him to soone young and beautiful.
As for herself, the re thought of relying on her own family made Zeng Qiuping sob louder.
Leng Qianhan remained utterly unmoved, as if he were rely an observer. He stared at her coldly and dispassionately: "You say you’ve worked hard? Oh, you’ve certainly worked hard—for all those shady sches you’ve been secretly planning and plotting every day. Did you think I didn’t know?"
