Chapter 233 means divorce.

Seeing this, Liang Yanchuan forced himself to stand in front of his mother.

He was covered in injuries, and every movement caused him excruciating pain, but he still gritted his teeth and endured it.

Xie Lingfang's slap landed heavily on his back, causing him to cough up two mouthfuls of blood.

"Son, are you alright? Don't scare your mother..."

Lin Meizhen turned around and supported him.

Liang Yanchuan slowly shook his head, his voice weak but clear.

"Mom, that scumbag isn't worth your time. I've said everything I needed to say, let's go. I never had a father. We can't afford to offend the Liang family, but we can avoid them."

Liang Weiyue was startled and was about to speak to ease the tension when Lin Meizhen softly replied, "Alright, we don't want anything from the Liang family anyway. Let's leave now and get as far away from these people as possible."

After the mother and son finished speaking, they didn't look at each other again. Supporting each other, they walked step by step toward the elevator.

They were both wounded, but their backs were straight; every step they took was difficult, but they were also resolute, like two scarred but unyielding shadows.

Liang Weiyue was suddenly tormented by his conscience, and a feeling of unbearable pain rose in his heart.

Xie Lingfang scoffed, "A whore always tries to appear virtuous! A worthless bastard, born but not taught, dares to come and claim a father? Why doesn't he go and claim a ghost instead?"

"Watch your mouth!" Liang Weiyue said, suppressing his anger.

Xie Lingfang was incredulous. "You yelled at me for their sake? Don't forget, my son is the heir to the Liang family! If you treat me badly, what will become of him in the future..."

"If he's not satisfied either, he can get out of the Liang family with you!" Liang Weiyue interrupted her sharply.

Xie Lingfang was completely stunned: "What...what do you mean by that?"

Liang Weiyue stared at her, saying each word slowly and deliberately, "It means divorce. According to the prenuptial agreement, I won't take a single penny from the Xie family, and you can forget about taking anything from me."

Xie Lingfang panicked, "Honey, I was just being silly, can't you be more tolerant of me?"

“Yes, brother-in-law, this mother and son are clearly trying to sow discord, don’t fall for it,” Xie Mingxuan said.

"Everyone loves to sow discord, but your Xie family is the only good people. If you weren't working as someone's dog, you would have been in jail long ago!"

Xie Mingxuan was instantly silenced by Liang Weiyue's words.

After scolding him, Liang Weiyue turned to look at Xie Lingfang.

"How many heinous things have you done over the years? Now you're even corrupting our son! My tolerance for you has long been exhausted! You have women who can bear my children, but instead you're supporting this ungrateful mother and son. Let whoever wants to be the sucker have it; I, Liang Weiyue, am not putting up with this anymore! Just wait to receive the divorce papers!"

After saying that, Liang Weiyue turned and went to chase after Lin Meizhen and her son.

The Xie siblings were left standing there, stunned by the sudden turn of events.

Xie Lingfang was the first to come to her senses and turned to rush back to Ji Ying's ward.

"It was you! You did it all!" Her eyes were bloodshot. "You scourge! You seduced my son, then my brother-in-law, and even tried to drive a wedge between my husband and me. You're the one who deserves to die! Why don't you just die already?"

He was about to pounce on her and attack.

Jiang Ran stepped forward, using her shoulders and back to push her back, causing her to stagger backward. Fortunately, Xie Mingxuan caught her from behind.

Ji Ying's eyes were as pale as a frozen lake, without a ripple.

"Listen carefully, I will no longer cooperate with Liang Jian in treating my illness. If anyone dares to bare their fangs and test my bottom line again, don't blame me for chopping off their dog head."

Xie Lingfang was stunned by these words, then raised her voice and questioned, "You're threatening me with my son's life, are you even human?!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Ying's lips curled into a chilling smile.

"Threat?" Her icy gaze swept over the Xie siblings inch by inch. "If it weren't for the favor you owed Liang Jian in the past, do you think anyone would have the right to stand here and talk to me after what you've done to me?"

The sudden flash of murderous intent and determination in her eyes sent a shiver down the spine of Xie Mingxuan, a man accustomed to weathering storms.

A vague yet chilling guess suddenly surfaced in my mind: Could she be the missing Shen family heiress?

If she were a member of the Shen family, Liang Yizhi would have taken her back to the capital long ago, instead of leaving her in Kunming to be coveted by various factions.

Although Xie Mingxuan dispelled his doubts, his momentum had diminished by half. He restrained Xie Lingfang, who was on the verge of exploding.

"Sis, calm down. Now is not the time to argue with this bitch. Your husband only brought up divorce in a fit of anger. How can you just end your thirty-year relationship like that? The most important thing right now is to stabilize the situation. As long as you humble yourself and soften your stance, once this is over, you won't be afraid of not being able to deal with this slut."

Xie Lingfang calmed down because of his words, and a smug light shone in her eyes again.

"You're right. With her paltry tricks, she thinks she can fight me? Let's go back now. Tonight, I'll find a way to make Liang Weiyue obediently return to my bed. Ji Ying, when my son wakes up, I'll make him personally play with you until you're ruined and crushed. You'll be kneeling and regretting daring to oppose me today!"

The two left the hospital triumphantly, but both forgot to visit Liang Jian, who was still unconscious in the intensive care unit.

"Is this even human language?" Jiang Ran said, closing the ward door.

Ji Ying leaned quietly against the hospital bed, her shoulders relaxed, and her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of gray.

"She was right about one thing: I should have died a long time ago."

Nothing is more disheartening than being abandoned by one's parents.

Although Jiang Ran didn't know the reason, she was afraid that Xie Lingfang would feel guilty, so she quickly comforted her, "Xie Lingfang is just a shameless shrew. Don't take a single word she says to heart."

Ji Ying didn't respond. For a moment, she was almost overwhelmed by the overwhelming exhaustion. Just then, her phone rang.

It was Lin Meizhen calling.

A chill instantly dispelled the hazy mist in her eyes.

That's enough weakness.

Since she didn't die, then it's someone else who should have died.

Her journey has only just begun.

She hung up the phone and looked at Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran understood immediately, "I'll go buy you dinner. Call me if you need anything."

After saying that, she left the ward and closed the door behind her.

Ji Ying called back, and the other end answered in a second.

“Yingying, we went back to Minghe Hospital. Liang Weiyue chased after us, but I ignored him,” Lin Meizhen said.

Ji Ying remained calm. "It's up to you how to get him to divorce Xie Lingfang."

"Hmm, I don't know why, but although doing this is immoral, it makes me feel good. However... Yan Chuan warned you to be careful of Xie Mingxuan, who is close to Xie Lingfang. He still has designs on you."

Ji Ying raised the corners of her lips, "Coincidentally, I've also become interested in him. Let's see who gets rid of whom first."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ward door opened, and Liang Yizhi walked in carrying a food box.

Ji Ying felt a pang of fear and instinctively hung up the phone.

Did he hear that?

How much did you hear?

If it were the old her, she would never have said such ruthless words. Would he have become suspicious?
