Song Xia was completely stunned when she was chosen by the system; she couldn't understand it at all. She had never given birth, and her heart had long since turned to ice, so why was she chose...
"Okay, I can take Tianci far away, is that alright?" Zuo Shan looked extremely aggrieved, gritting her teeth and pretending to be strong.
Song Xia sighed with regret. If Xie Yuan saw her like this, he would be heartbroken. It was such a waste to put on this act for her!
"It would be best if you all left together. Anyway, I'm not going to want that piece of trash Xie Yuan anymore."
"How dare you call my son trash?" Zhang Yuefen said, and was about to attack, but was easily stopped by the bodyguard.
"They're either trash or scum. What, you dare to do it but not admit it? It's not just me saying this; netizens all think so."
This matter isn't widely known, and it's mostly discussed online by people in City A. After all, the Song family is quite famous in City A, and Xie Yuan has appeared on some local talk shows in recent years for the sake of prestige. At that time, people described him as a young, handsome, and outstanding entrepreneur.
These days, it's no wonder that outstanding entrepreneurs are exposed for living off their wives, blatantly keeping mistresses, and misappropriating company assets.
"Stop putting on this act in front of me. Do you really think Xie Yuan is some kind of treasure that I can't bear to part with? Lingling doesn't need such a disgusting father. I won't drop the lawsuit against you. Let Xie Yuan wait to go to jail."
"Aren't you afraid of affecting your daughter?" Zuo Shan said loudly as she saw her about to go inside.
"What impact? My daughter can inherit my company in the future. If she doesn't want to inherit, she can just take the money and travel around. I don't need her to do any other work. But your son..."
Song Xia raised an eyebrow and smiled maliciously, "Without financial support, he can only rely on his own efforts. Remember to cheer him on."
“My grandson will definitely be more successful than your daughter. What’s the use of having a lot of money? In the end, it will all belong to someone else.” Zhang Yuefen said fiercely, unable to contain her anger.
Song Xia smiled and said, "So my money has become yours? Yes, you spent quite a bit of it before, but I'll make you pay it all back."
She chuckled and said, "How pathetic. You're women, yet you don't even consider yourselves human. You insist on letting men ride roughshod over you. There won't be any money left for you to live a carefree life, Ms. Zhang Yuefen. Remember to take good care of the three emperors in your household. I have high hopes for you."
Zhang Yuefen straightened her back and said, "The men in my family will always be there for me."
Song Xia didn't even want to argue anymore: "Yes, you're right."
The words, though meant to be submissive, were delivered in a sarcastic tone, which infuriated Zhang Yuefen once again.
"In this situation, I hope your man will stand up for you, instead of letting you rush to the front lines."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and closed the door, ignoring Xie Chuancai's dark expression.
She truly couldn't understand how Xie Chuancai, such a useless person, could have Zhang Yuefen so completely under his thumb.
When Xie Chuancai was young, he couldn't earn money. Zhang Yuefen had to take care of the housework and work in the fields. She even borrowed money for Xie Yuan's tuition fees.
Xie Yuan finally became successful, but people said it was because of the Xie family's good genes, so Xie Chuancai did even less.
Zhang Yuefen is quite pitiful. Apart from the past few years in the Song family, she has never had a good day. However, she does not deserve sympathy because she not only manipulates herself, but also takes it for granted that she can make Song Xia's status lower than hers. She is really despicable.
"That little bitch dares to sow discord between us. People without mothers are just ill-mannered."
Zuo Shan considerately supported her, saying, "She's in a bad mood right now, so it's normal that you can't reason with her. Otherwise, I'll come back in a couple of days. Yuan-ge is such a good person, she definitely won't want to leave."
Zhang Yuefen was overjoyed by these words: "What you said is right. Where else can she find such an excellent man besides my Xiaoyuan? We can just come back in a couple of days. It's so pretentious and a waste of our time."
Zuo Shan forced a smile: "But Mom, you can't say that to her then. If you provoke her anger again, I'm afraid things will go wrong."
"Shanshan is right. You're too impulsive. If you had been more patient, you might have been able to persuade her." Xie Chuancai stood with his hands behind his back. He hadn't stepped forward before, but now he was lecturing.
Zhang Yuefen dared not refute, and could only nod in frustration.
Song Xia looked at the surveillance footage and was momentarily speechless at their attitude: "I'm sorry to have made you laugh."
"Not at all, Miss Song, you're the one who's had a hard time." The two bodyguards were also in great pain. They had handled so many cases, but this was the first time they had ever seen someone so shameless and blindly confident. It was truly astonishing!
I can't imagine how we lived together before. We met someone as good and outstanding as Miss Song. We should have treated her well, if not worshipped. Why did we do the opposite? Miss Song was too kind to them.
Song Xia was truly surprised that even at this point, the family was still so arrogant; they really wouldn't shed a tear until they saw the coffin.
It was her past indulgence that made them overlook their own real value, little did they know that if she turned against them, they would be nothing.
With all the evidence in place, Xie Yuan can no longer pull any tricks, and they will gradually get used to their life of falling completely from a high place.
Tsk, I'm actually quite excited. They used to bully her so badly, now is the perfect time to see them make a fool of themselves. Of this family, only Xie Yuan has any real skills. Once they're in there and have no more use to them, who will treat them well?
In fact, there's no need to wait until later; people in their family have already started kicking them when they're down.
When the police found her, Zhao Hui was unaware of what had happened. It wasn't until she heard that Zuo Shan and Xie Yuan weren't actually husband and wife that she burst into laughter.
"I'm not making this up because of a grudge, officer. People who often come down for a walk in the neighborhood all think they're a couple with a son. Xie Yuan's parents even come over often to take care of their grandson! It's unbelievable how bold mistresses are these days, with family members protecting them."
"Okay, Ms. Zhao Hui, thank you for your testimony. Would you mind testifying in court?"
"Yes, yes." Zhao Huiya grinned from ear to ear. How could she miss such a good opportunity to make Zuo Shan laugh at her?
Zuo Shan used to brag to her about how loving they were as a couple, but it turns out they weren't a couple at all; she was just a disgusting mistress!
She was still showing off her house, jewelry, and bags—all of which were probably bought with her ex-wife's money. Now that it's been exposed, shouldn't her ex-wife take them back? Zuo Shan, let's see how arrogant you can be now!
She hated mistresses more than anything in her life, and she was determined to make Zuo Shan suffer the consequences.
And Xie Yuan, isn't this a clear case of bigamy? After all, everyone in this neighborhood thinks they are a real couple, otherwise why would the in-laws come over so often to help the mistress take care of her child?
After thinking it over, Zhao Hui realized that her husband was also restless. Perhaps she should learn from the original wife, find evidence first, and then take the money back into her hands.
