Jiang Qing's face turned slightly pale. She opened her mouth to explain, "I didn't..."

However, Xie Li reacted quickly and hung up the phone.

Jiang Qingyu couldn't help but widen her eyes, glancing hesitantly at Xie Li, "It's Aunt Li's call..."

In fact, Xie Li had already recognized the voice; it was sharp and sarcastic, and it was none other than Madam Li's.

“She never says nice things, there’s no need to listen to her.” Xie Li said naturally. “You and the child need to keep a cheerful mood. Since she can’t speak properly, then just ignore her.”

I just got the call and thought Mrs. Li was calling to express her concern.

Perhaps it's feigned, or perhaps they're worried about their scheme being exposed.

In short, after learning of the training institution's crimes, as the victim's family, we should at least put on a show of doing something.

Who knew that Madam Li would have such a strange attitude?

Shen Lian wholeheartedly agreed. Having just overheard it, she was already furious: "Exactly! What kind of person is she? Xie Li hasn't even scolded her because he's too good-natured, okay?"

Madam Shen, unusually, did not scold Shen Lian for being so impolite.

"I see." Jiang Qingyu looked somewhat dazed.

Since they found out she was pregnant, no one has ever cared about her physical or mental health.

Madam Li would always look at her with disdain and use the most vicious words to speculate about her, saying that she was despicable and that she would not hesitate to seduce others in order to marry into the Li family...

They even sent her to this so-called socialite training academy under the guise of doing it for her own good, just to hone her skills.

"But if I hang up on her, she'll keep calling..."

Madam Li had a strong personality and never allowed Jiang Qing to ignore the phone or hang up first. If anyone dared to anger her, she would have her servants call incessantly, hysterically, in a deadly barrage of calls.

Jiang Qing is now in agony every time she hears the phone ring; she has developed a psychological trauma from being tormented by Mrs. Li's calls.

Sure enough, no sooner had Jiang Qing finished speaking than her phone rang again.

Xie Li hung up twice with lightning speed. The third time, he waited for the phone to ring for a while before answering and introducing himself: "This is Xie Li."

"Xie Li?!" Mrs. Li shrieked on the other end of the phone, "Did you hang up? Who gave you permission to hang up on me? Don't you have any manners?"

"Yes, I hung up." Xie Li didn't even blink. "This is your last warning, don't call me again."

Madam Li almost laughed in anger, "You're warning me? What gives you the right to..."

"Beep—" The phone was hung up.

Mrs. Li was so angry she was about to die!

The thing she hates most in her life is when people don't answer her calls or hang up on her. It makes her feel disrespected and even causes her great anxiety.

She came from a humble background and, in her youth, relied on her good looks to marry into a wealthy family. She took the initiative to climb into the Li family's bed and that's how she got married.

After marriage, no one in the Li family paid her any attention, and her husband frequently went to places of entertainment, making her feel even more insecure.

She would never answer phone calls to check up on him, and the more he didn't answer, the more she would call, creating a vicious cycle that became a source of anxiety for her.

Fueled by her anger, Mrs. Li continued making phone calls. She refused to believe that Jiang Qingyu would dare not answer the phone when it rang!

Isn't she afraid of being kicked out and losing all face?!

A woman becomes pregnant out of wedlock and is then jilted by the Li family—who would dare to marry her? Her life would probably be ruined!

Feeling emboldened, Mrs. Li, upon discovering that the phone call wouldn't go through, instructed the maid to try calling again from a different phone.

After calling for a while, the maid said with difficulty, "Madam, Miss Jiang's phone is probably switched off."

Madam Li: "!!!"
