Zhang Shun was extremely conflicted. He had been angry with Zhou Yuting before, but now she was also a victim.
But now he is engaged to Ding Xiaohua.
It's impossible for him and Zhou Yuting to be together anymore.
After figuring this out, he said to Zhou Yuting, "I'm already getting married to Xiaohua, so you shouldn't come looking for me anymore, to avoid causing misunderstandings."
Aunt Li grabbed Zhou Yuting's hair and slapped her face twice more; "Zhou Yuting, I've been lenient with you before. You've challenged my bottom line time and time again. Don't you know what kind of person you are? You even dared to drive my daughter-in-law away. Today I'll beat you to death, you shameless bastard."
"Mother, let go first. We're not what you think."
Aunt Li got even angrier when she heard him speak. This troublesome son of hers had driven his wife away and was still defending her.
While pulling Zhou Yuting's hair, she angrily shouted at her son, "Aren't you going to go after your wife? Are you just standing there waiting to be a bachelor forever?"
Zhang Shun glanced at Zhou Yuting; "Then please release her first."
Aunt Li was so angry that she kicked Zhou Yuting, who fell to the ground.
She lay on the ground, looking at Zhang Shun with a pitiful expression.
Aunt Li wanted to kick her again after seeing the look in her eyes, but Zhang Shun quickly grabbed her.
"Mother, stop hitting her."
Aunt Li grabbed Zhang Shun's ear and twisted it, saying, "You clueless fool, how could you be blinded by her? Hurry up and go after Xiao Hua, or I'll disown you if my daughter-in-law runs away."
"Then stop fighting, I'll go after them now."
Seeing Zhang Shun about to leave, Zhou Yuting's eyes flashed with resentment; "Shun, my face hurts so much!"
Zhang Shun didn't turn around, but Aunt Li couldn't stand it anymore; "Zhou Yuting, if you keep doing this, believe me, I'll slap you again."
Seeing that Zhang Shun had left, Zhou Yuting got up from the ground.
"Auntie, I know you look down on me..."
Aunt Li interrupted her directly, saying, "It's good that you know."
"But Ah Shun and I are truly in love. Can't you think about your son?"
"Pah! You call that true love? Keep your true love to yourself! My son's happiness is already blossoming, so you'd better go somewhere else and stay out of the way!"
"Auntie, you..."
"Stop calling me 'Auntie,' it's really annoying. Don't ever show up in front of our little boy again."
Su Li watched Aunt Li's outburst from the side, a slight smile playing on her lips.
After they left, Su Li continued to work on the ground beneath her feet.
Beijing City.
The imposter Chen Shuling was frantic; she had mobilized all her connections but still couldn't find Chen Shujing.
She was filled with fear and was plagued by nightmares at night.
In her dream, Chen Shujing found Gu Huanian and his son, and they recognized each other.
Chen Shujing cried to Gu Huanian, "Huanian, do you know how badly that imposter has harmed your mother all these years? You must avenge me."
Gu Huanian nodded firmly; "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely find Chen Shuling and avenge you."
In the next scene, Gu Huanian and his son found her, holding knives.
As he approached her step by step, Gu Huanian suddenly thrust his dagger straight at her heart.
"ah!"
She was so frightened that she woke up suddenly from her dream, gasping for breath.
After a while, she recovered.
Where exactly is Chen Shujing hiding? She's already come to Beijing; could it be that she died out there?
If that's the case, why couldn't she even find a body?
Chen Shuling couldn't sleep at night, and to make matters worse, Murong Lan kept coming over these days.
After a night of nightmares, Chen Shuling decided to take a nap, since there was no one else at home except for Wang Ma.
Just as she was dozing off, Murong Lan's voice came from outside the room: "Auntie, are you up?"
Chen Shuling really didn't want to reply or get up; she was exhausted from searching for people these past few days.
She pretended not to hear while lying in bed, thinking that Murong Lan had come here simply to find Gu Huanian, but he wasn't there now.
There's not much point in her going out; she might as well get a good night's sleep and think about where Chen Shujing might run off to later.
Chen Shuling thought that if she didn't say anything, Murong Lan would know to leave.
To everyone's surprise, there was another knock at the door: "Bang, bang, bang!"
"Auntie, are you sick? If you don't say anything, I'm going to call Wang Ma to open the door."
Chen Shuling had no choice but to reply, "Lanlan, don't call me Aunt Wang anymore. I've just been feeling unwell these past few days and have been lying in bed for a while."
"Auntie, are you alright?"
Chen Shuling came out after getting dressed: "Auntie, you didn't sleep well last night. I see you have dark circles under your eyes."
She nodded, really not wanting to waste time talking to her about such pointless things.
"Lanlan, are you here to see Hua Nian? He's been away on a mission for the past few days and probably won't be back for another two weeks."
Murong Lan was somewhat disappointed; "Auntie, I want to ask you, do you really think that Brother Huanian and I can be together? I'm a little worried."
"Lanlan, your aunt will always be on your side. Don't worry, as long as I'm alive, I will definitely make sure Huanian marries you. Don't think too much, just get ready for Huanian to marry you."
Having received Chen Shuling's assurance, Murong Lan no longer hesitated. Originally, her grandfather had talked to her today, and the point was to introduce her to a better match than Gu Huanian.
But she only had eyes for Hua Nian and looked down on everyone else.
After Murong Lan left, a cold glint flashed in Chen Shuling's eyes.
I washed my face with cold water to calm myself down quickly.
