Do You Feel Pity for Her?
← Ch.0651 | Ch.0653 → |
After the training in the morning, Mu Qiqi went to Zhongteng and told Sheng Xiao about what happened in Huang Yao.
Sheng Xiao sat in his chair quietly. After a while, he raised his head and looked at Mu Qiqi.
"This is a problem that all companies face. Third Brother will know what to do."
"Then I must be the one who made too much fuss." Mu Qiqi put her hand on her chin and contemplated."But I have a feeling that this matter will lead to another bigger problem. Maybe I'm just being too sensitive that I always want to prevent Sheng Kai's revenge."
Hearing this, Sheng Xiao beckoned Mu Qiqi with his finger. When she came to his front, Sheng Xiao said, "It's my problem that you feel so insecure."
"It has nothing to do with you. This is the natural instinct of a woman. It's a woman's specialty to think too much."
Mu Qiqi sat on Sheng Xiao's lap."You go on. I'll sleep for a while." Then, she yawned, leaned her head on Sheng Xiao's shoulder, and closed her eyes.
When the secretary entered the office and saw this, he did not make a sound. He had gotten used to it, so he simply passed the document to Sheng Xiao and let him sign it.
...
In the afternoon, it was peaceful in Ye Mansion.
When Mu Tangxue saw Mama Ye was alone in the living room, she went downstairs and walked toward her. However, the Mu Tangxue who was standing in front of Mama Ye was completely different from the one that Ye Jingcheng knew.
"Bitch, you have been so good at acting since young. I'm never wrong about this."
"Even so, Aunt Ye, don't you still have to prepare for the engagement ceremony and accept me as your daughter-in-law?" Mu Tangxue sat beside Mama Ye and smiled."It can't be helped. I'm also a victim. Why won't your son just let me go?"
Mama Ye looked away silently.
"Since we're getting engaged, I will make my requests. As the parents of the bridegroom, you should at least give me something. I won't ask for much, just five percent of the shares of Ye Holdings, so that I won't be bullied after marrying into the Ye family."
Mama Ye had the urge to slap Mu Tangxue when she heard her request."You are out of your mind. It's your biggest fortune to be able to be engaged with my son. You still want shares of the company?"
Mu Tangxue covered her face and laughed, "It's fine if you don't want to give it to me. I can just ask your son for it. You know your son is very generous toward me, right? If I ask him to give me his heart, he might just do it."
Before Mu Tangxue could finish her words, Mama Ye grabbed Mu Tangxue by the hair and threw her to the ground. After that, she kicked her twice.
"You don't deserve it!" Mama Ye looked ugly. She had totally lost her poise as an elegant lady of a rich family.
Of course, she thought that anyone who met a woman like Mu Tangxue would go crazy.
Mu Tangxue did not struggle. She lay on the ground groaning in pain.
After Mama Ye left, the servant who had been hiding in a corner came to help Mu Tangxue up.
Mu Tangxue knew that she was hiding behind the screen. That was why she got Mama Ye all riled up.
She believed that the servant had recorded the whole incident clearly, and so she just had to wait for her to send it to Ye Jingcheng.
"Miss Mu, you're too pitiful. Why don't you tell Young Master about this?" The servant helped Mu Tangxue upstairs and to the bed.
"I knew from the beginning that his parents hated me. I just didn't know that it was to this extent." Mu Tangxue shed tears in silence."What can I say? It was me who insisted on being with him."
"Miss Mu, don't say that. You should rest. When Young Master comes back, he will come and see you."
Mu Tangxue nodded and lay on the bed.
As for Ye Jingcheng, he had received the video the servant sent him. In the video, he saw his mother beating Mu Tangxue.
So, he walked out of his office and rushed home.
"Why are you back at this hour?"
Mama Ye was drinking tea in the garden. When she saw her son, she was curious about his sudden appearance at home.
Ye Jingcheng slapped her without a second thought."Whoever bullies Mu Tangxue is considered as going against me. No one can bully her, not even you."
Mama Ye was dumbfounded by Ye Jingcheng's slap. It stunned her so much that it took a while before she could react."You're crazy. You bastard, how dare you hit me?"
"Mother, I warn you. If you bully Tangxue again, I will pay back ten times as much. Don't blame me then!"
Meanwhile, Mu Tangxue was in her room upstairs. The window was open and she was watching the incident in the garden, her arms crossed over her chest and the ends of her lips curled upward.
The game had just begun.
In the afternoon, Ye Holdings released the news about Ye Jingcheng and Mu Tangxue's engagement. It was even reported in the newspaper. This showed how much Ye Jingcheng valued Mu Tangxue.
Mu Qiqi frowned when she read the newspaper. She was unsure if Mu Tangxue was sincere, or if it was all an illusion in order to get revenge, or she had fallen for the taste of power and wealth once again.
Of course, she was more convinced that it was the second. However, she didn't expect that the heroine of the drama would come to the police station in person to answer her question.
"Are you here for my blessings?" Mu Qiqi was in the laboratory, wearing her white coat. She was called by the professor to come help with some experiments.
"Ye Jincheng would hope so, but..." Mu Tangxue moved closer to Mu Qiqi and whispered, "I'm inviting you to go for a good drama."
"How do I know this is not your trick to fight against me?"
"Sister, I love Mr. Lu the same way you love Brother-in-law. You must come next week. I said it already that I will avenge you."
Mu Qiqi did not give Mu Tangxue an answer, but she could feel the hatred Mu Tangxue had toward the Ye family and Ye Jingcheng strongly. Although Mu Tangxue was a sinful person, Mu Qiqi never hoped that Mu Tangxue would disappear in this world.
After that, Mu Tangxue left.
When she left, Mu Qiqi noticed that there were scratch marks on her face and that the way she walked was awkward. She might have been slapped or tortured.
Must she go this far?
Feng Shanshan saw Mu Qiqi standing at the entrance, so she leaned against the wall."What are you thinking about in such a daze?"
"I suspect that Ye Jingcheng is beating Mu Tangxue, " said Mu Qiqi.
"Didn't you say that a bad person will be defeated by another bad person? Do you feel pity for her now?"
Mu Qiqi did not say anything. She didn't know how far Mu Tangxue could go in order to destroy Ye Jingcheng. Although she was glad to witness the outcome, she didn't forget that Ye Jingcheng was someone who could do anything to achieve his goal.
"I think she has already prepared herself mentally when she made that decision. This was her choice. She should atone for her sins."
