Wang Chungui didn't care about any of that. She felt hopeless about life and was crying and making a scene, cursing Jiang Tong wildly, with her complaints about her husband mixed in. Her son, however, only mentioned her briefly, complaining that he didn't want her as his mother.

"Go and call Jiang Tong over here right now! I want her to kneel down and apologize to me! I want her to repent! She has to kowtow and apologize to me, and she has to raise Peipei for me! Otherwise, I'll jump off this cliff! I'll make sure she never has a moment of peace again, and I'll haunt her as a ghost!"

Wang Chungui was extremely agitated and cried loudly at the edge of the rooftop, so loud that people downstairs could hear her. Everyone accused her of being mentally ill.

"Wang Chungui has gone mad, she's really gone mad! Jiang Tong is so unlucky to have run into such a family!"

"She's gone mad. Who would let her raise the child? She couldn't even take care of herself before; her house stank like a doghouse! How can she expect to raise a child like this?"

"That's right. I've only ever seen her take Peipei out to play before. If Peipei pees, she won't even change the diaper. She has to take it back to Jiang Tong!"

"She deserved it!"

"This person is so vicious! They actually tried to drag her former daughter-in-law down with them!"

Neighbors and onlookers alike expressed their condemnation, questioning what was wrong with this madwoman that she had to make her former daughter-in-law kneel down and apologize.

It was clearly her own fault.

The police negotiators, in an effort to calm Wang Chungui down after hearing her words, contacted Xu Huaiyuan and his son, as well as Jiang Tong.

The person who went to gather intelligence returned.

The rescue team members who wanted to talk to Wang Chungui immediately looked disgusted, as if they had swallowed flies, but out of humanitarian considerations, even a madwoman had to be saved.

However, some people replied that they had contacted Jiang Tong, but she refused to come forward.

Everyone said it was understandable.

Jiang Tong didn't care at all. To her, this former mother-in-law was outrageous, trying to threaten her with death to make her kneel down and apologize.

She simply asked the community workers who rescued Wang Chungui what wrong she had done to deserve an apology.

Since she did nothing wrong, she will absolutely not apologize.

Wang Chungui was willing to give up her life, so what does that have to do with Jiang Tong?

In short, don't try to morally blackmail her.

Jiang Tong isn't buying it now. If she were younger, she might have been a little foolish, but now she can't be bothered with people who seem mentally unstable.

Moreover, she knew in her heart that Wang Chungui, who was so afraid of death, was unlikely to jump, but she was capable of threatening others with her own life.

Jiang Tong did not appear.

A few people might murmur, saying that she doesn't need to kneel down and apologize, she could at least show her face.

The other group of people retorted, "What? Why should someone else's daughter have to suffer this injustice? If one day you have a relative who makes you kneel down and slap yourself, threatening to jump off a building if you don't, let's see if you kneel down and slap yourself!"

The others found it funny and chimed in, "Exactly!"

The remaining minority kept quiet.

Later, the community staff thought about it and agreed. Wang Chungui was so emotionally agitated right now, and if Jiang Tong came, it might really provoke her into jumping.

In the end, Xu Huaiyuan arrived first, and then the community staff urged him to go upstairs.

On the rooftop.

Wang Chungui sat on the edge of the railing, holding onto the railing. The others were not far from her, and some were trying to talk to her, but she was crying and wailing, demanding that Jiang Tong come over and kneel down to her. She even slapped away the water that was offered to her.

Everyone was extremely troubled.

Xu Huaiyuan's face turned pale. He had finally managed to save his career, but at the crucial moment, because his mother was about to jump off a building, all the goodwill he had accumulated with Ke Rou's distant relatives, who treated him like a lapdog, was gone.

He can still picture the other person's disdainful face and furrowed brows in his mind.

How should I explain this to him when I get back? How long will I have to keep trying to curry favor with him before he'll value me again?

Xu Huaiyuan himself didn't know.

There's also Ke Rou.

She had no idea why Jiang Tong divorced him. The young woman was understanding and forgiving, and she was willing to live a good life with him and start a new chapter in their lives. Although Xu Huaiyuan used her family's connections and money, he was initially somewhat moved.

The annoyance that followed was also dispelled by her spoiled princess attitude. Yes, she didn't care about his past, but her personality was really hard to bear.

She would occasionally complain about his age and make fun of their age difference, intentionally or unintentionally.

Forget about all of that.

Xu Huaiyuan remembered that he needed to rely on her family, so he endured it and tried to coax her in every way. He finally managed to keep his new wife on his feet, but then his mother caused him this mess?

He could hear his neighbors cursing him and his family of three as soon as he went upstairs.

His affair was also widely publicized.

Xu Huaiyuan almost lost his footing on the stairs and tumbled down. He wished he could just faint at that moment so he wouldn't have to worry about all this mess and what he would do afterward.

When a bunch of media reporters rushed over to take pictures, he excitedly said that this news could be used as a headline.

Xu Huaiyuan was also disheartened.

He was in the news today too, but it was the embarrassing kind. Jiang Tong is also on the trending topics list often, but hers are all positive ones that people envy.

Xu Huaiyuan felt dazed by this sudden change, as if the world was unreal. How did things get to this point? It really was a case of one wrong step leading to another.

He truly hated his mother the moment he saw her.

If it weren't for his mother being so difficult.

He doesn't have to live such a tiring life.
