Madam Qin glanced at her and said, "Huai Yu, stop messing around. Now that you're back, sit down and have dinner."
Liu Shuangshuang glanced at her secretly and made a face at her that only she could see.
Qin Huaiyu's anger grew stronger and he almost exploded.
The four of them seemed to have become a family, but she seemed like an excluded alien, which made her body tremble with anger.
She looked around and finally fixed her eyes on the jade pendant hanging around Lingmeng's waist.
She clenched her fists, thinking back to all these years, how she had regarded Ling Meng as her biological mother, how she hated Sheng Yunrong, and even gave every object she had touched to Ling Meng. But in the end...
They abandoned her without hesitation!
Qin Huaiyu gritted his teeth, took a step forward, and pulled off the jade pendant from Ling Meng's waist.
Ling Meng stood there in a daze, almost unable to react in time, and was shocked by Qin Huaiyu's actions.
After a brief moment of daze, Qin Huaiyu's resentful gaze pierced her heart like a sharp arrow.
If it weren't for her, she and her mother would still be able to live in peace today!
My mother is still safe and sound at home!
It's all her fault! She destroyed her home!
"Qin Huaiyu!" Qin Wenyuan's angry voice resounded throughout the house, "You have become more and more unscrupulous recently! How dare you take your stepmother's property without permission?"
Qin Wenyuan's love for Ling Meng is strong and passionate.
Qin Huaiyu came back to his senses, trembling: "Father, this... I discovered this by accident."
"You discovered it by accident?" Qin Wenyuan sneered, "Doesn't every item in the Qin family belong to your father? Return the things to your stepmother!"
Ling Meng smiled and said gently: "It doesn't matter, since the child likes it... let her keep it..."
Qin Huaiyu looked at their expressions and finally understood that all this was not only because of Ling Meng, but also because of her father's favoritism.
She gritted her teeth, tightly grasped the jade pendant, turned around and fled quickly.
"Qin Huaiyu!" Qin Wenyuan called out from behind her, but she didn't stop at all.
A gleam of gloom flashed across Qin Wenyuan's eyes.
The little girl never disobeyed his orders.
He sat down and said slowly, "Mother, you are right. She is not my true blood, and she is indeed alienated from us."
Madam Qin smiled coldly: "What good can a daughter born to Sheng Yunrong be? Now that you have understood it, you should understand who you should value in the future. Lingmeng, don't you think so?"
Old Madam Qin always smiled kindly when facing Ling Meng.
"Mother is right..." Ling Meng lowered her head, feeling shy, but she couldn't forget the jade pendant in her heart.
She had seen the pattern on the jade pendant in a romantic place before! Its origin must be extraordinary!
It must be taken back!
Even if it is useless in the future, at least it can be exchanged for some silver!
Ling Meng gave Liu Shuangshuang a wink.
Although Liu Shuangshuang was reluctant, she felt great pleasure at seeing Qin Huaiyu's unhappy expression, so she said without hesitation: "Father, Grandma, I'll go see my sister."
Madam Qin glanced at her sideways and said impatiently, "Go."
No one knows when these two disaster stars will be kicked out of the house.
Qin Huaiyu ran back to his room, holding the jade pendant tightly, and held it like a hot charcoal.
She recalled Sheng Yunrong's words and felt that the jade pendant in her hand seemed to be as hot as fire.
But looking at the dazzling array of gold and silver utensils in the room, she felt reluctant to leave.
"Bang!"
The door was suddenly pushed open. Qin Huaiyu tightly grasped the jade pendant, his eyes wide open with anger: "What are you doing here?"
Liu Shuangshuang stared at the jade pendant curiously: "I just want to know, what is it about a small jade pendant that is worthy of your attention?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Huaiyu held the jade pendant tighter, as if it could bring her infinite power.
"Nothing more than that!" Qin Huaiyu retorted hastily.
There is really nothing special about this jade pendant.
She also didn't understand why Ling Meng always wore the jade pendant on her chest since she got it.
However, she knew clearly in her heart that this jade pendant... was a precious item that she had once given to her "mother".
At this moment, she was determined to take it back and return it to her real mother!
Liu Shuangshuang didn't give her the slightest chance and said coldly, "It's just a worn-out jade pendant. Why would you hide it? Hand it over!"
Qin Huaiyu widened his eyes and was extremely angry: "You are dreaming!"
Seeing her so angry, Liu Shuangshuang fanned the flames and said sarcastically, "What if you don't want to hand it over? At this point, you should understand that I am the only lady in the Qin Mansion!
Everything in your hand belongs to me!"
"You!" Qin Huaiyu was furious, but she had been taught by Sheng Yunrong since she was a child, and she still retained a sense of etiquette in her bones, which prevented her from being presumptuous.
She could only maintain her arrogance and say a few words angrily and curse.
But if she really wants to do it...
She can't do it.
"Give it to me!" Liu Shuangshuang stretched out her hand to grab it.
Qin Huaiyu was unable to dodge, and the narrow space left her with nowhere to escape. She could only jump out of the door and flee to the spacious courtyard.
In the distance, Old Madam Qin walked slowly towards them with a gloomy face.
Qin Huaiyu felt a glimmer of hope and shouted loudly, "Grandma!"
No matter what, grandma is still her grandma! And Liu Shuangshuang is just an outsider!
Old Madam Qin stopped and waited for her to run up to her, then slapped her hard in the face.
Qin Huaiyu was beaten so hard that he felt dizzy and fell to the ground, his cheeks swelling up rapidly.
She looked up in disbelief, tears welling up in her eyes.
She had never been treated like this since she was a child.
Madam Qin said in a cold tone, "For a mere jade pendant, you made a scene in the mansion and made the servants and maids laugh at you! If this gets out, will our Qin Mansion still have face? Will our Qin Mansion be short of money?"
"Give it to her!" Old Madam Qin gestured for her to hand the jade pendant to Liu Shuangshuang.
Qin Huaiyu lowered his head, and the light in his eyes went out and then rekindled.
She finally understood why her mother didn't want to stay here.
She decided to leave.
Qin Huaiyu stood up silently and brushed off the dust on his body.
Under Mrs. Qin's confused gaze, she walked past her and walked out the door silently.
Madam Qin shouted angrily, "Qin Huaiyu! How dare you turn a deaf ear to me when I talk to you? You are just like your mother, the Sheng family's style!"
The harsh words were like a sharp knife piercing his heart. Qin Huaiyu burst into tears and sobbed.
Qin Huaiyu felt a surge of sadness in his heart as he recalled that he had spoken to Sheng Yunrong in the same tone in the past.
She completely ignored the strange looks from people around her, turned a deaf ear to the whispers and pointing of passers-by on the street, and walked resolutely towards the abandoned old house.
Qin Huaiyu gently knocked on the mottled wooden door of the Sheng residence. The door opened and Sheng Yunrong's face came into view. Her emotions surged, making her eyes moist again and tears almost burst out.
She straightened her back slightly, trying her best to suppress the sadness in her heart, making her voice sound brighter and more determined: "Mother, I will follow your instructions. I will leave my hometown and go deep into the countryside."
