Volume 1 Chapter 94 Crocodile Tears
When Zhu's mother heard this, she was stunned and a trace of panic appeared on her face.
Soon, she controlled her emotions and tried to calm herself down.
As the saying goes, don't hit someone who smiles at you.
Zhu's mother originally thought that she had done Zhu Sheng a great favor by saying so many nice things to her just now.
Even if there have been some conflicts in the past, there is no need to turn against each other now.
If Zhu Sheng is willing to cooperate with his mother, he can establish a sympathetic victim persona on the Internet.
Needless to say, the dark history of the past few years can be cleared up in an instant.
I thought Zhu Sheng wouldn't be so stupid as to waste such a good opportunity.
Zhu's mother put on a pitying expression again and pretended to speak earnestly.
"Zhu Sheng, I know that although you feel wronged, you are still a good child who cherishes the old times. You don't want to embarrass Mr. Gu, so you have been holding back on these things.
Even though I am not your biological mother and I neglected you a lot in the past few years, it is normal for you to complain. But I am still your family after all. If even I don't speak for you, who else can understand your suffering?
Don't worry about the Gu family's revenge. Although we in the Zhu family cannot compare to them, we will protect you no matter what."
As she spoke, a few crocodile tears squeezed out of her eyes, as if she was ready to perish together with the Gu family for Zhu Sheng at any time.
These words were said with such sincerity that people who didn't know her might really think that Zhu's mother treated Zhu Sheng as her own daughter.
Even some of the staff on the scene came out to speak up and support Zhu Sheng.
"Zhu Sheng, what Auntie said makes sense. This is originally a divorce program. If you have any grievances, just say it. There are still many netizens who can distinguish right from wrong. Everyone will definitely stand on your side."
"That's right. Some people look glamorous, righteous, and decent on TV shows. But they are actually two different things. Zhu Sheng, don't be afraid. Speak out today and let everyone judge."
In the blink of an eye, the whole situation was back under the control of Zhu's mother.
Zhu Sheng watched this farce and felt extremely disgusted.
She doesn't care about false reputation, and she doesn't want to be a victim.
Even if he was wronged, he would always seek justice in person and would not take Zhu's mother's lip service to his words.
She thought that the incident at the New Year's Eve party had completely severed the relationship between her and the Zhu family.
Unexpectedly, this family came over again and treated Gu Chiye in the name of doing good for her, but they were secretly plotting something unspeakable behind her back.
Zhu Sheng knew very well that although Gu Chiye was abominable during those three years, the Zhu family was even less of a good family, and he could not follow Zhu's mother's lead now.
Seeing that the situation was good, Zhu's mother moved closer and closer, intending to hold Zhu Sheng's hand and perform a touching mother-daughter show in public.
Zhu Sheng felt a chill and deliberately stood up to keep a certain distance from her.
He took the opportunity to shake off Zhu's mother's "dirty pig hands", and then spoke impatiently to the vicious woman in front of him who was acting the part.
"Mrs. Zhu, are you sure that if I tell you all my grievances here, you will definitely make the decision for me and help me get justice?"
Seeing Zhu Sheng walking away, Zhu's mother was a little panicked and thought that the play would not go on any longer.
After hearing Zhu Sheng's question, he felt that there was hope. He was secretly happy that this girl really wanted her family to support her, but she was too sharp-tongued and couldn't save face, so she deliberately put on a stern face to her.
Then, Zhu's mother returned to her kind and loving look.
She patted her chest and assured Zhu Sheng again and again.
"Don't worry, if you have any grievances, just tell mom. Your father and I will never let go of anyone who bullied you, even if it means sacrificing the entire Zhu family!"
Looking at Zhu's mother's righteous and solemn look, Zhu Sheng just found it funny.
Why do they think that just because they have the status of relatives, they can do whatever they want and make the victims unconditionally forgive the evil things they have done?
These so-called relatives are probably the ones who hurt the original owner the most.
Otherwise, the original owner would not have ended up homeless and died on the street just because of a divorce.
These are not relatives at all; they are simply enemies who are exploiting you to death!
Thinking of this, Zhu Sheng no longer had any concerns.
Since the Zhu family dares to fool the public on the show, they must be prepared to be backlashed by public opinion.
Zhu Sheng sneered and continued what his mother had said.
"Since Mrs. Zhu said so, I won't be polite."
Hearing Zhu Sheng soften her tone, Director Kong thought she was going to start accusing Gu Chiye.
He immediately signaled to the staff around him and ordered all the machines to aim at Zhu Sheng.
Several photographers nodded in understanding. If nothing unexpected happened, they would probably capture one of the most popular scenes of the show.
Everyone held their breath, expecting to hear a tearful cry.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Sheng did not look at Gu Chiye.
She looked at Zhu's mother and spoke slowly.
"Gu Chiye has indeed treated me badly in the past three years, but fortunately we have now reached a consensus to break up peacefully. I haven't completely forgiven him, but I don't plan to pursue the matter further.
His cold-blooded approach in marriage is certainly unacceptable, but at least he didn’t beat me up, nor did he ignore my wishes and push me in front of others like an object to gain more benefits.”
Zhu's mother felt something was wrong and interrupted him: "Zhu Sheng, some things may not be what you think..."
Ignoring Mother Zhu's panic, Zhu Sheng continued speaking.
"If Gu Chiye simply ignored me, then your whole family was clearly abusing me outright.
Before marriage, my status in the Zhu family was lower than that of a lowly servant. Ever since that marriage sold me for a good price, you guys have become addicted.
This time, before I even got officially divorced, you couldn't wait to send me to another boss' bed. Fortunately, I discovered it in time and didn't let your evil plan succeed. "
Zhu's mother was anxious and couldn't help but cover Zhu Sheng's mouth and explain to others.
"Excuse me, everyone. This girl has always been a nitpicker. When she gets emotional, her words are unpleasant to the ears. They are all exaggerated childish words. The facts are not like that at all..."
Seeing that Zhu's mother not only refused to repent but also tried to block his mouth, Zhu Sheng was completely infuriated by her.
She shook off Zhu's mother's hand fiercely, stood up, pointed at her nose, and cursed at her in an even angrier tone.
"You son of a bitch, you Zhu family are a bunch of inhuman vampires who can sell off my daughter at any time for profit, yet you dare to cry wolf in front of me.
Especially you, this vicious woman, who keeps saying that you want to seek justice for me. If you have the guts, kneel down and apologize now.
Bow down 100 times first, and then I’ll consider whether to let you go or not! "
