The Zhong Mansion was in a state of uproar.
Zhong Yuming wanted to strangle Zhong Mingzhu to create the illusion that Zhong Mingzhu committed suicide and apologize to the Xia family.
As a mother, Mu Denglan really refused.
She bit Zhong Yuming's ear hard, then raised her hand to scratch all over Zhong Yuming's face.
Zhong Yuming, who has always prided himself on being one-of-a-kind, was furious.
He picked up the whip and beat Muldenlan to a bloody pulp.
Later, Mu Denglan and her three daughters were all kicked out of the house.
Zhong Lingyu was standing by, watching all this with cold eyes.
Mu Denglan is eager to protect her daughter, and Zhong Yuming is at odds with her.
Zhong Mingzhu was afraid of death and huddled in Mu Denglan's arms, not daring to say a word.
Zhong Mingyuan is cowardly, but he is also afraid that after leaving the Zhong family, he will not be able to enjoy the glory and wealth.
So she lowered her stance and begged Zhong Yuming.
Zhong Yuming called her a beast and beat her mercilessly.
As for Zhong Mingyu, among the sisters, her performance can be said to be extremely calm.
After the mother and daughter left, Zhong Lingyu asked people to keep an eye on their every move.
If there is any abnormality, report it to her.
She thought this was the opportunity to avenge her mother.
Mu Denglan dug his own grave, Zhong Lingyu only needed one more push and everything would be solved.
Zhong Lingyu was very happy.
At this time, Zhong Yuming covered his bleeding ears, fell down on the sofa, and cursed angrily: "I really raised a bunch of beasts."
The third aunt was hiding nearby in fear, not daring to step forward to cause trouble.
Only Zhong Lingyu stayed quietly beside Zhong Yuming.
After Zhong Yuming calmed down, he said to Zhong Lingyu with a hint of regret in his tone: "If your mother was still here, the Zhong Mansion would definitely not be in such a mess."
He remembered the support Yun Suqing's natal family had given him.
I also remembered how considerate and gentle Yun Suqing was when she and he first got married.
At that time, his business was going smoothly, his wife was virtuous, and his daughter was filial. He was so high-spirited.
Later, he married Mu Denglan, and everything slowly changed.
Zhong Yuming felt that he was really blinded by lard.
Mu Denglan was obviously a bad guy, why didn't he see it?
He slowly fell into decline, all because of being fooled.
If his wife, Yun Suqing, was still alive, the Zhong family would definitely not be in this situation.
Hearing this, Zhong Lingyu's eyes overflowed with ridicule.
That's what Zhong Yuming is, selfish and cold-blooded.
In his heart, it seemed that everyone felt sorry for him.
Whenever something goes wrong for him, it's someone else's fault.
He felt that Muldenlan was responsible for today's situation.
Little did he know that it was his own ruthlessness, doting on his concubines and destroying his wife that caused the Zhong family to fall apart.
A villain who doesn't know how to reflect.
Zhong Lingyu said warmly and coldly, "My mother has always taught me that everything in our family will be prosperous. If my mother were here, she probably wouldn't want to see the Zhong family like this."
Seeing how well-behaved his eldest daughter was, Zhong Yuming stepped forward and took one of her hands, sighing: "You are the only one in the family who makes me worry the most. My good boy, my father will rely on you in the future, so you have to fight for me."
Zhong Lingyu smiled happily.
She is well-behaved and clever, which makes Zhong Yuming prefer her even more.
As the saying goes, those who are in authority are confused and those who are onlookers will understand.
As a person in authority, Zhong Yuming thought that his eldest daughter was innocent.
But the third aunt, who had been watching, was silently shivering.
Zhong Lingyu looked towards her. The third aunt's eyes flickered and she quickly looked away.
The third aunt had this look before.
Zhong Lingyu had a good idea, but he didn't reveal it.
She pretended to comfort Zhong Yuming with a few words and then went upstairs.
Zhong Lingyu was buried in the bookcase practicing calligraphy.
Practicing calligraphy can make people calm down.
However, her heart could not calm down no matter what.
Zhong Lingyu thought that Shen Huaizhou had been gone to Xiangcheng for almost half a month.
Wen Qingyu was seriously injured there, and Shen Huaizhou was probably her only support.
Thinking of this, Zhong Lingyu felt heavy.
That night, Shen Huaizhou sent another telegram.
Zhong Lingyu opened it and looked at it.
Shen Huaizhou probably knew that she was still angry about what happened on his birthday.
He also knew that apologizing to her was useless.
He briefly wrote down in the telegram what he had seen, heard, and whereabouts in Xiangcheng these days.
Although the content is plain and simple, his closeness and flattery are revealed everywhere.
Zhong Lingyu felt that she should be happy, but she couldn't be happy.
Wen Qingyu has always been a thorn in her heart.
However, due to the relationship between Wen Qingyu and Shen Huaizhou, Zhong Lingyu was unable to explain it clearly.
She was so irritated that she burned the paper to ashes.
*
Zhong Lingyu and Shen Huaizhou haven't seen each other for nearly half a month.
On June 2nd, Shen Huaizhou rushed back to Yuncheng.
That night, he climbed up to the window of Zhong Mansion to find Zhong Lingyu.
I happened to see Zhong Lingyu coming out of the bathroom.
The weather was getting hotter and she was only wearing a tank top underneath.
She was wearing a moon-white satin nightgown, exposing her delicate calves.
The thin ribbon was tied loosely and outlined her slender waist.
Her complexion is already fair, and when illuminated by the rich white light, she seems to be shimmering with pearlescent light.
Shen Huaizhou didn't even have time to take off his coat, he stepped forward and hugged her waist, kissed her soft lips, and said vaguely: "Lingyu, I'm back."
The fabric of his military uniform was rough and hard, carrying the chill of the night.
Printed on the warm chest, the ice is cold.
Zhong Lingyu couldn't help but tremble, and she avoided his kiss.
But he pressed her against the door and kissed her more fiercely.
Zhong Lingyu was forced to raise his head and bear it.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the confusion and confusion in his eyes.
The heat from his chest spread through his clothes...
Zhong Lingyu pushed him away with unsteady breathing.
Shen Huaizhou lowered his head and kissed the tip of her nose, "On the night of my birthday, I didn't mean to betray your kindness. Xiaoyu is my relative. She is far away in Xiangcheng and she had a car accident. I can't ignore her."
"Is her injury serious?" Zhong Lingyu asked, "You have been in Xiangcheng for half a month."
Her voice was calm, and Shen Huaizhou did not hear the dissatisfaction hidden in it.
He explained to her and told her the relationship between Wen Qingyu and Jin Shihong, as well as the fact that he was later left in Xiangcheng by Jin Shihong.
Zhong Lingyu's eyes darkened slightly.
The Jin family is a family that even the Shen family wants to win over. Wen Qingyu is actually the long-lost daughter of the Jin family...
Based on Wen Qingyu's disgust for her, Zhong Lingyu felt that this was not a good thing for her...
She was a little distracted.
Shen Huaizhou called her, "Lingyu?"
Zhong Lingyu came to his senses.
Without changing her expression, she walked to the bed and sat down, "Wen Qingyu is your sister. It's natural for you to visit her. You don't need to explain too much to me."
"If I don't explain to you, you will definitely continue to be angry with me. In the past half month, you haven't replied to any of the telegrams I sent you."
Shen Huaizhou put his arms on both sides of her, bent slightly, and looked at her level.
It turned out that he also knew that she would be angry.
Zhong Lingyu felt depressed in his heart.
She couldn't hold back, raised her eyes and stared at him, and asked forcefully: "Shen Huaizhou, if I give you another chance, back on the night of your birthday, if I don't let you rush to Xiangcheng to see Wen Qingyu that night, what will you do? select?"
