Chapter 1828: Give Her A Mother
“As long as you played your role well and Qingxuan liked you, I said I would treat your child as my own. But if you weren’t good to her, I told you that you would no longer hold the title of Madam Mu.”
Qi Huiyin’s face turned pale. She never considered that after being married for 15 years, her position as Madam Mu could still be taken away from her.
“Dad, how could you do this? Mom has been married to you for so many years. Can’t you see how much she has contributed to the Mu family? Yet you want to divorce her just because of one thing Chen Ye said? Are you aware that this man is a scoundrel? Even when he was young, he was always getting into fights and getting involved in various petty crimes. He took a liking to Sis when he was young. Now, he is even more eager to pursue her. He will do and say anything to marry into our family. Dad, please don’t divorce Mom over the words of a liar!”
Upon saying that, Mu Qingling looked at Chen Ye again. Although the suit he was wearing looked professional, when she heard that he was departing for a mission, she had immediately lost all respect for him and began to look down on him.
He was just a soldier. He could not even make decisions for himself. He had to follow orders. If he wanted to meet a woman, he would have to complete whatever mission he was on before he could come back to Jiang District to meet anyone. Perhaps his suit had been made by an ordinary tailor, or maybe it had been a gift.
In short, Mu Qingling firmly believed that a soldier would never be able to afford sophisticated clothes.
In addition, after he bumped into her just now, he went on to defend that b*tch Mu Qingxuan. Since then, Mu Qingling addressed him as Chen Ye rather than Brother Ye. She looked at him with a sense of disdain.
She did not want to be disowned as the daughter of the Mu family over such a trivial matter. That day, when she passed by her father’s study, she heard that her father was going to be transferred to Emperor District. Many rich and powerful families lived there. She could not bear to watch her parents divorce before she could even start looking for a good man.
“Uncle, this little girl is sensible. When I was young, I asked her why she didn’t tell you about her stepmother bullying her. She told me that it wasn’t easy for you to accept her mother’s death and find the strength to remarry. She didn’t want to make things more difficult for you. But a child without a mother is a lost one. Though the little girl might look like she has a good family, she doesn’t have a good life.”
“It’s not like that! You’re talking nonsense! Old Mu, don’t listen to his nonsense. He’s trying to tear our marriage apart!”
“Dad, I didn’t know that you married Aunty just to find a mother for me. If you married her just for that, I would’ve told you the truth a long time ago. Ever since this woman brought Mu Qingling into our house, she’s turned a blind eye to her daughter snatching my things away. I kept giving in, and Mu Qingling grew even more unscrupulous. She thought that my things were hers. Whatever I owned, she would steal—regardless of whether she actually liked them or not. This woman would merely watch her daughter take from me, never stepping in. If I refused to let her daughter have her way, she would immediately come over to ‘reason’ with me and convince me to give in to her daughter.”
“It’s not like that! Old Mu, Qingxuan must think it was Qingling who harmed her because of what happened last night. That’s why she has so much hatred for me. If she had been so against my presence since the beginning, she would’ve told you sooner, right?”
