Chapter 433 Something Happened Over Twenty Year Ago
Outside the door, Zhou Mengyao and Zheng Yao remain deadlocked. Zhou Mengyao stands in front of the door, insisting on refusing Zheng Yao to enter the room.
“Get d.a.m.n away!” Zheng Yao sees Xia Ning come out. She pushes Zhou Mengyao away and draws Xia Ning forwards suddenly, “Today, let everyone have a look at your true colors, b.i.t.c.h!”
Xia Ning loses her balance and falls towards the ground. She feels worried all of a sudden!
Luckily, Zhou Mengyao sees that and quickly holds out her hand to help Xia Ning stand stably!
“Zheng Yao, anyway, you are from a n.o.ble family. How can you be so rude? Do you want to fight?”
Zheng Yao screws her eyes, “Fight? I really feel like to beat the b.i.t.c.h to death!”
Xia Ning feels so surprised that Zheng Yao replies with these words. She purses her lips, feeling as if something stuck in her heart.
“Mom, I know you are angry. But, would you please tell me clearly what happened?”
“Don’t you feel ashamed to ask me…”
“I really don’t know!” Xia Ning freezes her eyes, “I was injured when I was a kid. I have a very vague memory of what happened when I was five years old! Mom, you call me b.i.t.c.h. You have to tell me why. Or, you are simply slandering me!”
“Slandering? Do I need to do that to you? Xia Ning, you were only a poor girl! You wanted to cling to the richness of Yi Family. You have been tried for over twenty years, don’t you? I was really blind that I couldn’t recognize you.”
Xia Ning frowns tightly. Zheng Yao is in a rage now and can’t speak rationally. It seems to be difficult to make her calm down and speak clearly.
Zhou Mengyao finds Zheng Yao keep scolding Xia Ning. She feels impatient with her, “Zheng Yao, you break into my home today. I can sue you for breaking into a private house! If you don’t explain reasonably, you may excuse me for telling you to meet in the court!”
“The court? Good. So that more people will know the true colors of the b.i.t.c.h! She looks like a kind person, while actually she is so evil that she is almost comparable to you!”
Zhou Mengyao hears Zheng Yao scold her. She bursts into a fury. She lifts her hand and slaps towards Zheng Yao’s mouth…
Suddenly, someone shows up in front of her. Her hand is stopped in the air and held tightly by Mei Ruo.
They stare at each other. After quite a while, Zhou Mengyao slightly lifts her lips, “You are the daughter of Chief of General Staff Mei, Mei Ruo, aren’t you?”
Mei Ruo hears Zhou Mengyao call out her name. She feels a little surprised and she loosens her hand a little, “Yes. President Zhou, please don’t use violence. We may talk rationally…”
“Talk rationally? Did Zheng Yao do that? And why do you bring so many soldiers here? Do you want to fight if talking doesn’t work?”
Mei Ruo slightly frowns. Zheng Yao who is standing beside her shouts loudly, “Today, we have to take the b.i.t.c.h Xia Ning with us! Those who dare to interfere in this will get no mercy from us.”
“To take her away? Fine. What’s the reason? And, Miss Mei, can you let go of my hand?”
Mei Ruo lets go of Zhou Mengyao’s hand. She turns to Zheng Yao, “Aunt, don’t be so angry. After all, this is President Zhou’s home. You may tell her the reason.” Then, Mei Ruo turns to Xia Ning, “Xia Ning, you may think carefully over. If Aunt Zheng tells the truth in front of so many people, you will feel very embarra.s.sed!”
Xia Ning clenches her fists. She nods, “Go ahead.”
Zheng Yao has never respected her and dares to make such a mess here now. Anyway, everyone will learn everything soon.
Zheng Yao stares at Xia Ning angrily. After quite a while, she takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
“Over twenty years ago, Xia Ning, you and your family lived in the governmental compound of B City. At that time, Xian and I lived in the military compound. There is only a street between the two compounds. When you were a kid, you often came out to walk around and made friends with a lot of complicated people.”
Kids are born to be kind and active. Wasn’t it common for her to go around with her friends? Zheng Yao speaks with obvious bias. It is imaginable that what she is going to say won’t sound nice.
“When Rui was a kid, he was very obedient! But he was seduced by you. I didn’t know when. He left home and went to play with you all day long. I criticized him several times and he controlled himself a little. Anyway, he still went to see you from time to time. Till one day, you took him to somewhere I didn’t know, and a car accident happened. I was shocked at that time. I finally felt released when I got to the hospital and found out that it was you who had the accident!”
Car accident?
Xia Ning can’t help remembering the scar on the back of her head…
“You deserved it. The G.o.d had its judgment. You wanted to seduce my kid? Even the G.o.d didn’t give you the break!”
Hearing this, Zhou Mengyao can’t help interrupting, “Isn’t it reasonable that kids have accidents when they play? You are mean to say so.”
“Mean? Hum.” Zheng Yao snorts, “Didn’t I know the family? Her grandmother had a very bad reputation. It was said that she had seduced a general and was abandoned. But she still didn’t give up! She must be insane for dreaming of becoming rich!”
“No. My grandmother wasn’t like that! You lie!” It is fine however Zheng Yao may judge her. But when her grandmother is judged, Xia Ning feels furious!
“Lie? You may do some investigation! Everyone in the governmental compounds said so! Your family planned to seduce my son Rui long before! Luckily, the G.o.d kept its justice. You were hit and broke your head. When I saw you lying on the bed, I was glad! And I kicked your whole family away from B City!”
Zheng Yao clenches her fists. She grits her teeth, “I didn’t expect that you still haven’t given up after over twenty years! You played tricks to meet Rui! No wonder I felt familiar with you when I met you. It turns out that you are the b.i.t.c.h! Listen carefully. Even though you succeeded in marrying Rui now, I won’t admit your ident.i.ty! If you don’t get divorced with Rui, you don’t blame me for being heartless!”
What happened over twenty years ago…Xia Ning feels headache again. Zheng Yao told the story. But obviously, it is not the truth. Xia Ning wants to remember what happened. But she only has some vague pieces of scenes. She can’t remember what happened at the moment!
“Ha. Ha. Ha!” At the time, Zhou Mengyao laughs, “I was wondering what a big issue it could be! Wasn’t it only about two kids who played together and had an accident? You are an adult and you have kept it in your mind till now! Zheng Yao, you are not young. You are still messing up with kids? Don’t you feel it ridiculous?”
“Zhou Mengyao, you are a b.i.t.c.h, too! At that time, you failed to marry Xian. Now, you come back and combine with Xia Ning to take the revenge, don’t you? Yes. You are a b.i.t.c.h, both of you are b.i.t.c.hes! Anyway, I warn you. Unless I die, I won’t give either of you a break!”
“How? You bring a group of soldiers here to kill us? Do you know what a society we are in? Do you think you can act unscrupulously as you like?”
“I predicted that you would be partial to the b.i.t.c.h! Zhou Mengyao, I respect you as my senior school mate. However, if you don’t let me take her away, you may not blame me to offend you!”
“I won’t allow you to take her away. Zheng Yao, if you don’t leave with your people, we may meet in the court! At that time, we will know who will feel humiliated!”
They stare at each other and neither of them gives in. It looks as if there is a bomb in the air going to explode anytime.
“Good. Mei Ruo. Let’s go!” Zheng Yao shouts, “Xia Ning, Zhou Mengyao, let’s wait and see!”
Then, Zheng Yao turns around and forcefully walks away in her high heel shoes.
Mei Ruo glances at Xia Ning. She says meaningfully, “Xia Ning, you should bear the responsibility for what you have done. Don’t get other people in trouble, especially those who are concerned about you. President Zhou, you are a respectable person. It is not worthy for you to get involved in such dirty cases for Xia Ning.”
Not waiting for Zhou Mengyao to respond, Mei Ruo leaves to follow Zheng Yao in a hurry.
Zheng Yao and Mei Ruo leave. The soldiers they brought with them also go away rapidly.
The villa resumes peace.
“Ning, it is OK. You may go back to your room to have a rest. I will ask Can to prepare some soup for you to calm down.” Zhou Mengyao gently pats Xia Ning’s back, “Shu, please take your Sister Xia back to the room.”
Jing Shu nods. She goes forward and tries to hold Xia Ning’s hand.
Instinctively, Xia Ning takes a step backwards!
Everyone feels confused about her reaction.
“Xia Ning, you should bear the responsibility for what you have done. Don’t get other people in trouble…”
Yes. She has brought enough trouble to other people.
She can’t even protect herself. She has to bother other people with everything. She is really useless.
Zhou Mengyao is aware of Xia Ning’s confusion. She takes a step forward and puts her hand on Xia Ning’s shoulders. She says word by word, “Xia Ning, listen to me. You have to remember what you have said. You said that you will never give up. Now, you have got happiness with you. Don’t ever give it up!”
Xia Ning feels her heart shake. Her eyes are blurred with tears. She says, “Aunt Zhou, I am really useless. Without me, you wouldn’t have been scolded by my mother-in-law like that…”
“You silly kid.” Zhou Mengyao strokes her hair. She says tenderly, “We all like you and are willing to protect you. You are just like my daughter. Zheng Yao is worried about her son while I am worried about my daughter. Zheng Yao wants to start the fight and I won’t give in. The most important thing is that you can’t give up. If you give up, all that we have done are in vain. Don’t forget it. You have got a baby with you. Have you ever thought about that if you don’t fight for yourself, what will happen to your baby?”
The last words of Zhou Mengyao are just like a needle with energy sticking into Xia Ning’s heart to make it stronger. Xia Ning clenches her fists. She grits her teeth, “I will ensure that my baby is fine.”
“That is right. So, listen to me. Don’t think about other things. Go back to your room for a good sleep. Leave other things to me to deal with.”
Xia Ning purses her lips and nods.
Zhou Mengyao sees Xia Ning enter her room. She thinks for quite a while. Suddenly, her eyes brighten. As if she remembers something, she calls Gu Luan.
“President Zhou…”
“Director Gu, Ning’s mother-in-law made a mess here just now. You may pay close attention to the negative news about Ning these days. If it is possible, please try to stop it.”
Gu Luan frowns. He didn’t expect that Zheng Yao would make a mess in Zhou Mengyao’s house.
“OK. I will pay attention to that.”
Xia Ning lies on the bed silently but there are waves of thoughts in her brain. It has been hours. No matter how hard she tried, she can’t remember what happened in the past. If she can’t remember that, she will be put in a disadvantage. She knows that Zheng Yao always keeps her words. In the following days, she is afraid that everyone will have a tough time.
