Yue Lingsi held back the urge to pass out with a ton of effort before she inhaled deeply and looked at Xi Xinyi. “Xi Xinyi, how did you become like this? Anyone in the Xi family has a right to diss me, but not you! All these years, who have I been fighting for? How dare you say such things to me?” She stared at Xi Xinyi with disappointment and heartbreak.
However, Xi Xinyi just laughed coldly. She covered her burning cheek and said, “I was just reminding you to be clear about the truth. Haven’t you hit me today?”
“Be clear about the truth? What truth? I really didn’t expect you to be like this. Are you looking down on me? Do you have to compare me to that slut, Shen Wenna? Don’t forget that I gave birth to you, and not Shen Wenna!”
Yue Lingsi was so furious that her face turned beetroot, and her gaze was sharp as she stared at Xi Xinyi.
“Don’t compare you to Shen Wenna? That’s all because you think you’re far superior to her! Otherwise, Father wouldn’t have left us and not even take a second look at us. Instead, she returned to Shen Wenna’s side! Wake up! Look at yourself right now! You’re like a street shrew! Forget about how your reputation has been ruined. The debt collectors have even knocked on your door. Don’t you know how terrible your image is right now! Can’t you cause less trouble for me? Because of you, look at what we’ve become? We’re homeless and are left with nothing!”
The more Xi Xinyi spoke, the angrier she was. Since they were on the topic, she went all out and insisted on straightening matters. “I should have had so many things if not for you… How did I get a mother like you?”
Xi Xinyi gripped her face. It was as if her beautiful eyes were covered in frost. They were so cold that one could feel a piercing pain from her gaze.
“Enough! You keep saying that it’s all because of me! Have you seen your husband? Since your child was born, Han Yifeng didn’t even take a second look at you. You’re really capable, but you can’t even watch your own man now?”
Yue Lingsi hit her below the belt as she could not help but ramble on with her harsh criticism.
Upon hearing this, Xi Xinyi just chuckled coldly. “At least, I’m still Mrs. Han right now. I am the head lady of the Han Corp, and even bore a son for the Han family, so they have no way of ditching me, and you? You’ve got nothing! The Xi family is gone! Grandfather is completely disappointed in you too. What do you have now? What? You have nothing—”
Pa!
In the midst of Xi Xinyi’s sharp and cold shout, Yue Lingsi lifted a hand again and bitterly slapped the other side of her face!
Xi Xinyi shrieked and widened her red eyes furiously as she glared at Yue Lingsi. Her hands were twisted in a knot.
“Even if I am left with nothing, I am still your mother! I gave birth to you! This is karma for treating your mother this way! I can’t believe that you are my daughter! Does that mean that your obedience all these years was fake? Did you lie even to your own mother? You’re really daring now! Remember who raised you! I’ve really raised a thankless wretch!”
Yue Lingsi was so mad that the blood rose to her head. She shot Xi Xinyi a cold glare before getting up.
“Reflect on your own conscience!” she demanded and then turned to leave the ward.
Yet, Yue Lingshi had just opened the door when a tall figure greeted her sight.
In surprise, she subconsciously retreated two steps and then looked up to see, realizing that it was Han Yifeng!
At that moment, he stood coldly before the door. His handsome face did not reveal a hint of surprise at all. His dark eyes were filled with disdain as he looked callously at Yue Lingsi!
Yue Lingsi was shocked as if she realized something. Her heart started to beat really fast like a bullet train!
Could it be—?
That he had heard their conversation earlier?
How much did he hear?
Yue Lingsi was startled and started to feel uneasy as she looked at Han Yifeng.
Yet, Han Yifeng just looked mockingly at her. His gaze made Yue Lingsi’s heart sink. She wanted to say something when Han Yifeng bitterly averted his gaze and looked at the sickbed.
“Yifeng!”
When Xi Xinyi saw Han Yifeng, she quickly propped herself up from the sickbed. Her gentle expression was still pale and was very different from her menacing expression earlier. Now, she did seem quite lovely and moving.
With her head of messy hair, Xi Xinyi asked Han Yifeng a little weakly, “Yifeng, you’re here! How’s our child?”
Yet Han Yifeng only responded with a cold expression, his cold gaze went back and forth between her and Yue Lingsi, then a sneer curved on his lips, Xi Xinyi was a little alarmed by this, she felt uneasy, and she started to have a bad feeling she quickly explained, “Yifeng, earlier I, earlier those were all angry words, I, I don’t actually…”
“Whether it is or not, you know best. In fact, I’m not the one that needs an explanation.”
As Han Yifeng spoke, he glanced coldly behind at Yue Lingsi and mocked, “This seems like you, but whenever you make a mistake, apart from pushing away the responsibilities and putting the blame on other people, what else do you know? Without a doubt, that’s you, Xi Xinyi!”
“Yifeng, no! If it weren’t for her, we wouldn’t be like this. What do you want me, a weak girl, to do?”
Anger that was hard to conceal colored Xi Xinyi’s pale face as she stared at Yue Lingsi for a long time. There was a sense of her being wronged that could not be hidden in her voice as she choked on her sobs. “You wouldn’t understand that feeling of being so high at the peak and plummeting into a pit! If it weren’t for all those scandals, Yueying would at least still be around, and so would the Xi family. Grandmother wouldn’t be laying on the bed half-alive! You wouldn’t understand the feeling of being chased by those fierce debt collections. Everything is so horrible now! Can’t she just be more patient and let me have a few days of peace?”
Han Yifeng scoffed. “That’s your problem. I’m just here to warn you that just because you’ve given birth to a child, you can’t cover up all of that past. No matter what you do, if you want to move Grandfather, it’s all useless to me. I’m set on getting this divorce!” Han Yifeng cruelly said, not wanting to see her face anymore. He turned around to leave the ward, ignoring Xi Xinyi’s expression that had hardened.
The Han family had already planned to give the child a grand full moon banquet. In reality, they had already acknowledged Xi Xinyi’s identity. Obviously, Han Yifeng was very displeased about that!
