Zhou Ling, who believed she had made the right bet
Completely immersed in the happiness of their own fantasy,
This scene was witnessed by Grandma Zhao as she pushed open the door. She saw Zhou Ling lying in bed in broad daylight, not cleaning the house properly, but instead letting her precious son go out to set up a stall to earn money.
Feeling sorry for Zhao Kun, Old Mrs. Zhao was immediately furious. She scolded him loudly, her eyes blazing with anger: "The sun is already high in the sky, and you're still not up! What kind of daughter-in-law is so lazy? You're a grown man, don't you know any shame?"
The two had argued and fought more than once before, and had long disliked each other.
When Old Mrs. Zhao came over and started talking sarcasticly, Zhou Ling's good mood instantly vanished. Her face darkened, and she retorted angrily, "Some old hags are so disrespectful. Don't they know to knock before entering other people's homes? Before you meddle in other people's business, please mind your own business first. If you can't stand it, don't come here. Nobody's begging you to come."
"You brat, who are you calling disrespectful to elders? This is my home, why can't I come here? You haven't even officially married into the Zhao family yet, how dare you talk to me like that? Let me tell you, I will not let my son marry you. You bastard who doesn't even know who your own parents are, you are not good enough for our Xiao Kun."
Grandma Zhao was so angry that she uttered words that were even more hurtful.
Originally, she had a great deal of resentment towards Zhou Ling, but ever since she learned that Zhou Ling was the adopted daughter of the Zhou family, she looked down on Zhou Ling even more. She didn't even know whether her biological parents were alive or dead, let alone a dowry, her family couldn't get a single hair from Zhou Ling.
When Zhou Ling was confronted with her biological parents and especially called a bastard, how could she swallow this insult? "I am a bastard, so what? Let me tell you, I, this bastard, am now pregnant with your Zhao family's child. What can you do if you're unhappy? It doesn't change the fact that I am a Zhao family child."
"You're so young, yet you have no shame!"
Grandma Zhao was furious that Zhou Ling acted with such pride rather than shame.
Zhou Ling had long since given up and showed no respect for Old Mrs. Zhao, continuing to retort: "You're just taking advantage of your age; your skin is thicker than a city wall."
"You..." Old Mrs. Zhao was so angry that her teeth itched, but she couldn't compare to Zhou Ling's sharp eyes and quick wit.
Instead of getting angry, Zhou Ling laughed, looking smug: "What do you mean, 'you'? If you have nothing to say, then shut up. Don't try to boss me around. You think you can make me do whatever you want? Old Mrs. Zhao, let me tell you, no way. Don't even dream about it. I, Zhou Ling, will never be ridden on by you. From now on, I'll be the one who calls the shots in the Zhao family."
"Ah...you've gone too far, you brat!"
Grandma Zhao was so angry that she sat down on the ground again, crying and wailing.
Zhou Ling crossed her arms, completely unconcerned, and sneered, "If you're so capable, then stay put. I'm not afraid of losing face; if I do, it's my reputation that's being lost. Brother Kun won't be back from his stall until tonight. I can afford to wait it out with you. Let's see who can hold out the longest."
Having said that,
Zhou Ling simply plopped back down on the bed, grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds from the bedside table, and started cracking them open.
This left Old Mrs. Zhao feeling rather awkward.
Seeing that Zhou Ling was completely unafraid, Old Mrs. Zhao knew that making a scene was useless, so she immediately stopped crying and shouting, and quickly got up from the ground.
"You little brat who doesn't know how to respect the elderly and care for the young, who has no love or filial piety, you're ruthless..."
"You wait, when my son Xiao Kun comes back, I'll teach you a lesson."
Old Mrs. Zhao left angrily after uttering those words.
Zhou Ling didn't take it seriously and shouted at Zhao Laotai's back, "Don't be in such a hurry to leave! Why don't you keep sitting on the ground and howling? Do you want Brother Kun to teach me a lesson? Let me tell you, Brother Kun wouldn't dare to hit me. I'm the mother of his son. I'll make you furious."
Grandma Zhao was indeed very angry, and she almost stumbled and fell to the ground.
Seeing Old Mrs. Zhao return defeated and flee in disarray, Zhou Ling snorted triumphantly, "Trying to fight me? I, Zhou Ling, am not afraid of you. I don't even care about my heartless elder brother, let alone you. If you want to manipulate me, Old Mrs. Zhao, you'd better cultivate for another hundred years."
Winning the argument didn't bring Zhou Ling much joy.
Soon, her thoughts returned to taking revenge on Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chuan stood up for her, but Zhou Chen got him arrested and he had to stay in jail for seven days before he could be released.
As the second eldest sister, Zhou Na didn't really want to get involved, and even thought it would be a good lesson for Zhou Chuan.
As the third sister, she couldn't let it go like this. Zhou Chen was so arrogant and didn't care about her threats, so she would do as Zhou Chen wished.
Let the whole world know about Zhou Chen's evil deeds.
If it weren't for Zhou Chen, Old Mrs. Zhao would never have known that she was an adopted daughter of the Zhou family, nor would she have known that her beloved parents were not her biological parents.
It's all Zhou Chen's fault. It was Zhou Chen who made her life like this.
Why is it that Zhou Chen is getting better and better?
They were valued by their teachers, became outstanding in sports, and received honors.
That's not fair.
You, Zhou Chen, should go back to the construction site and do the hardest and most tiring work, dedicating yourself unconditionally. As long as you continue to give silently, their family will continue to live in harmony and love each other.
It's all your fault, Zhou Chen, for being too selfish and unwilling to take on the responsibility of being the eldest brother.
You, Zhou Chen, are the culprit who destroyed the whole family; you are the biggest sinner of the Zhou family.
Filled with resentment,
Looking at the phone numbers sent by her old classmate Sun Tingting, Zhou Ling began to edit a text, listing Zhou Chen's various heinous 'crimes', and then clicked send.
Meanwhile, a female classmate several kilometers away suddenly received a text message from an unknown number.
I was shocked when I saw the contents of the text message.
Sending a phone number wasn't the end of the story. Zhou Ling copied the previous text message and sent it to the second person, the third person...
All the phone numbers of Zhou Chen's classmates that she collected all received the same message.
After doing all that, Zhou Ling felt it wasn't enough.
If Zhou Chen's classmates, out of consideration for their classmates' feelings, don't spread the word, then all her efforts will be in vain.
To ensure everything goes smoothly, we need to distribute the supplies to more people.
Zhou Ling immediately sent the text message to all her former classmates.
When Li Kaile received a call from a classmate asking if Zhou Chen's story was true or false, he was completely bewildered. After learning more, he discovered that someone was spreading rumors and slandering Zhou Chen.
How could Li Kaile tolerate such a thing? He immediately called Zhou Chen.
Tell Zhou Chen that someone is smearing him.
However,
As soon as Li Kaile dialed the number, he heard the message, "The number you dialed is currently switched off."
"Oh no, I can't get in touch with Brother Chen."
Li Kaile's expression changed, and he immediately got up and went to Zhou Chen's house.
Zhou Chen, whose phone was out of battery, had no idea that a text message would once again thrust him into the spotlight, making him the focus of public opinion across the entire school.
