NOVEL NEXT Chapter 753 I'll Listen to You
Meng Xingzhi knew by her expression that she had once again misunderstood. He had never commented on her strained relationship with the Su Family before, because, after all, blood is thicker than water, and she would always be the daughter of the Su Family, an undeniable fact. But she had completely lost her senses, seriously damaging the Meng Family's reputation, and even slinging mud on Meng Fan, with which he could not compromise.
Meng Xingzhi forcefully suppressed his fury, picked up the newspaper, and handed it to Su Yun with an indifferent tone, "Stop crying, if you keep crying, don't blame me for not caring about the face of both families, or the regulations of marriage."
This truly frightened Su Yun, aware that Meng Xingzhi was a man of his word—if he said it, he would truly divorce her.
"I won't cry, I won't cry, you tell me, I will listen to you."
"Take a good look, could the photos on this newspaper be faked by someone else? Could someone have intentionally smeared her?"
"That... that..." Su Yun's face was covered in tears, her lips trembling incessantly, unable to utter the words that she had misjudged someone. She had been proud all her life, how could she have misjudged someone, being played by a young girl?
She didn't want to admit it, but Meng Xingzhi's icy gaze forced her to acknowledge it, or at least bow her head in submission.
"Bai Oulan really betrayed Meng Fan? That bitch, our family treated her so well, and she repaid our kindness with betrayal!"
"Yes! The whole district is now laughing at our Meng Family." Meng Xingzhi crumpled the newspaper into a ball and threw it on the ground, "I, Meng Xing, have never lost such face. After Meng Fan's sacrifice, I said we should break off the engagement and take back the engagement token. It was you, it was you who couldn't resist Bai Oulan's deception, letting her continue to climb up under the guise of the Meng Family, bearing the identity of Meng Fan's fiancée. Are you happy now? How can I face my son after my death?"
"I was wrong, I really didn't expect Bai Oulan to be so shameless."
"She's asking for death!" Meng Xingzhi's fist clenched tightly on the armrest of the chair, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes.
"I'll fire her right now, I will never let such a person off." Su Yun now hated Bai Oulan to death, wishing she could strangle her. To think how well she had treated her, how highly she valued and cultivated her. And she repaid Su Yun by slapping her own face, not only bringing shame to the Meng Family but almost causing Meng Xing to leave her.
"Forget it!" Meng Xingzhi said wearily, massaging his throbbing temples, "You really have poor judgment in people, Bai Oulan or Hai Lan, neither is good." Normally, a man shouldn't interfere in women's affairs, but Meng Xingzhi had completely lost faith in her and had no choice but to personally point it out.
"It's actually your own daughter who is smart and promising; you should cultivate a good relationship with her. That's how your father-in-law will forgive you."
"I can't do it!" Su Yun stubbornly said, "Don't you get angry when you see her? Isn't getting close to her just a reminder of my dishonorable past?"
Meng Xingzhi paused for a moment, "She is still your daughter, after all."
"I would rather not have that daughter, I only want you."
In the middle of the couple's conversation, the door outside was suddenly knocked upon. Meng Xingzhi's assistant strode in, followed by five or six burly comrades, escorting two people. It was Meng Ping and Du Xiaosong, brought in tied up and looking dejected.
"Report, President, we've brought the people."
"Good! Thank you for your hard work!"
