Although Tang Jun is the illegitimate daughter of Tang Tianxiang and Cai Ya, Tang Jun has been with Mingsi since she was a child and was raised by Mingsi.

Tang Jun has called Mingsi "Mom" for more than 20 years, acted coquettishly around her, and accompanied Mingsi for more than 20 years.

Even if there is no blood relationship, it is understandable that Mingsi feels sad at this moment just because of the feelings of growing up by his side.

After all, the real culprits are Tang Tianxiang and Cai Ya. It was their selfishness that ruined Tang Jun.

I looked at Mingsi and couldn't bear to see her in such trouble and pain. If she was soft-hearted towards Tang Jun, I wouldn't blame her.

I was about to speak and find a way out when Mingsi suddenly opened his eyes.

Her expression was clear, without tears or the pain of struggling.

She said to Lu Zhiyuan solemnly, "We in the Ming family have a familiar criminal lawyer. Once we arrive in the capital, I will have the lawyer contact you directly."

I froze in shock and asked, "Mom, are you going to have a lawyer investigate this matter thoroughly and punish Tang Jun severely?"

Mingsi nodded firmly, looked at me, and said calmly, "You are my only daughter. I will not tolerate anyone who threatens your safety!"

After saying that, Mingsi deliberately glanced at Lu Zhiyuan. Although her expression was calm, I could sense a warning in her words.

Mingsi's words were not only a punishment for Tang Jun, but also meant for Lu Zhiyuan to hear.

Meeting Shang Mingsi's gaze, Lu Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes and nodded: "Yes, I understand what you mean."

I frowned slightly. What did Lu Zhiyuan understand?

Did you understand that Mingsi wanted to severely punish Tang Jun, or did you also understand the hidden meaning of Mingsi's words?

In the evening, the car arrived in Beijing and we first sent Lu Zhiyuan back home.

After getting off the car, Lu Zhiyuan was about to say "thank you" to Mingyuan, but before he could open his mouth, Mingyuan had already started the car and left.

I felt helpless. Judging from Mingyuan's hostility towards Lu Zhiyuan, Lu Zhiyuan must be very depressed.

Mingyuan turned around and warned me, "Even rabbits don't eat grass near their burrows! Lanshan, don't hang yourself on the same crooked tree."

I glared at him speechlessly. How could he have assumed that I was a love-sick nymphomaniac?

Mingyuan noticed my expression and asked, "Why? You look dissatisfied. If you were really that smart, you wouldn't have been cheated on for more than two years."

"Uncle Mingyuan!" I interrupted him, saying helplessly, "Can you please just focus on driving?"

Seeing the two of us bickering with each other, Mingsi smiled but said nothing, enjoying the fun.

The car stopped in the yard of the Tang family villa. As soon as Mingsi got out of the car and looked at the familiar environment, his face became a little gloomy.

The scene brought back emotions.

Everything here reminds Mingsi of the time when she was deceived by Tang Tianxiang.

Mingsi raised his head and looked at the doorplate hanging on the gate of the villa, which still had the words "Tang Mansion" on it.

She ordered the housekeeper in a cold voice: "Remove the words on it and replace them with 'Mingfu'."

The housekeeper did as he was told immediately. I stood at the door with Mingsi and watched the word "Tang" being scraped off the plaque.

Mingsi murmured, "When I first arrived in Beijing, I thought that the Huake Group's focus would shift to Beijing, and it would be a good opportunity for our family of three to be together again. I chose this place specifically because of its large yard and spacious villa. I also arranged everything here myself."
