Meng Yifei listened to Shen Guqing’s words and turned to look at Mother Meng, "Mom, what’s going on here?"
Mother Meng’s face turned cold as she pretended to be confused, "What do you mean by ’what’s going on’?"
No matter how foolish Meng Yifei was, he understood that he had been schemed against by his own mother and sister. But what could he say now? Even if he spoke, Guqing probably wouldn’t believe him.
Clearly, his mother said Guqing would return tomorrow, but Guqing mentioned she’d come back after work to discuss matters, while his sister brought Ling Keke back and hid away herself.
He glanced at Shen Guqing, "Guqing, do you really want to leave me that much?"
Shen Guqing responded with a cold face, "Yes, I want a quiet life, a normal life, and I don’t want to live in constant scheming. It’s too exhausting."
Mother Meng was displeased, "Shen Guqing, what do you mean by that?
What do you mean by ’living in constant scheming is too exhausting’? Explain it to me clearly."
As she spoke, she pointed at Shen Guqing, aggressively charging up to her, intending to hit her. Standing on the side, Xinyan stuck out her foot, tripping Mother Meng directly to the ground.
Mother Meng was even angrier, "Meng Yifei, you saw it yourself. Shen Guqing not only wants to ruin our reputation, but this woman she brought also dares to cause trouble and made me fall. This marriage must end."
For a moment, the Meng Family was in chaos.
Watching his mother cry with snot and tears, Meng Yifei felt compassion, but then he saw Shen Guqing’s mocking expression, nearly causing him to break down on the spot, "Enough, all of you are pressuring me. Has anyone considered how I feel?"
Shen Guqing coldly replied, "Isn’t it all your own doing? If you hadn’t indulged them from the start, this wouldn’t happen every time. You don’t need to be torn anymore. Let’s take care of the formalities, and no one will press you anymore. Wouldn’t that make everyone happy?"
At this point, Meng Yiran felt the matter had been settled, so she leisurely walked back over.
Seeing her mother sitting on the ground crying, she quickly rushed over, "Mom, what’s wrong with you? Who bullied you?"
Seeing the impatience on her son’s face, Mother Meng was worried that if she messed up the performance this time, the marriage wouldn’t be dissolved. She wanted to solidify the situation, binding her son and Ling Keke together so that Shen Guqing would give up completely, with no room for negotiation, "Your brother and Keke were hugging in the room and got caught by your sister-in-law. That’s why there’s a fuss."
Meng Yifei’s eyes were full of disbelief. To get him and Guqing to divorce, they were even willing to ruin their own reputation?
And Ling Keke kept her head down, tacitly agreeing with Mother Meng’s words.
Seeing the scene, Xinyan thought that her senior sister should quickly cut to the chase. Her in-laws were all abnormal; how did her senior sister endure until now to realize this?
Just as Xinyan was thinking this, Mother Meng pointed at her, "That junior sister of Shen Guqing’s is no good either. She was the one who tripped me just now."
Hearing that it was Shen Guqing’s friend who made her mother fall, Meng Yiran couldn’t tolerate it. She directly reached out towards Xinyan’s face.
There was no way Xinyan would let her succeed. As Meng Yiran came charging, Xinyan dodged to the side and kicked her, causing Meng Yiran to crash into Ling Keke in a dramatic fashion.
Meng Yiran, realizing she had missed, felt humiliated and crazily tried to scratch Xinyan’s face. Not wanting to cause more trouble for her senior sister, Xinyan avoided getting caught, yet felt a mischievous thrill inside.
After several turns, Meng Yiran hadn’t even touched Xinyan’s clothes and started recklessly charging around.
The result of her reckless charging was Ling Keke letting out a sharp scream as she was knocked to the ground, and Meng Yiran fell on top of her too.
Before Meng Yiran could get up, Ling Keke cried out, "Get off, my stomach hurts."
No one thought much of it, assuming she simply fell and got hurt.
However, as Mother Meng helped her daughter up, she noticed a pool of blood beneath Ling Keke, which frightened her, "You, you, you’re...bleeding."
Being experienced, she naturally understood what Ling Keke’s current condition implied.
