It would be better if Zheng Fangshu were beaten to death, and it would be even better if Chen Zhilan were to die as well, so that she wouldn't have to live with this feeling for the rest of her life.
That's what I thought, but killing someone means paying with your life. Li Yang and his team are young and promising; we can't let them fall into the hands of a scoundrel like Zheng Fangshu.
"Alright, stop fighting. If you keep going, you'll all end up in jail."
Li Yang kicked Zheng Fangshu again before stopping.
Liang Guiying waved her hand, telling them to leave quickly, lest Chen Zhilan and Zheng Fangshu come back to settle scores with them.
With the help of Chen Zhilan and his cousin Zheng Wenyong, Zheng Fangshu was able to stand up. He cried and asked Liang Guiying, "Mom, why! I'm your son!"
Chen Zhilan tenderly wiped the blood from his face: "Fang Shu, stop asking. Don't you understand yet? Your mother doesn't treat you like a son at all; she treats you like an enemy!"
"Mom, what kind of spell did Zhou Yue cast on you to make you hate me so much?"
“Zhou Yue didn’t try to sweet-talk me. I did all this purely because my conscience wouldn’t allow it. Also, Zhou Yue didn’t gain her confidence by climbing up to someone; she had that confidence all along.”
"Where does an orphan get her confidence from?!"
“She is an orphan, but her father is not.” Liang Guiying looked at Zheng Fangshu with amusement. “It is extremely difficult for an ordinary family to raise a pilot, let alone an ace pilot in a secret service.”
Zheng Fangshu's eyes widened, and then Liang Guiying's next sentence came.
"Zhou Yue was taken away by her father's side. In a few years, she will become an ace pilot and captain, just like her father. As for you? If you're lucky, you'll still be a section chief at the boiler factory. If you're unlucky, you'll just be an idle man without a job."
"If you had truly loved her from the beginning, you would have had a captain as your wife, and twenty years later, you might even have had a captain as your daughter. But now, the captain as your wife and the captain as your daughter are both things that have nothing to do with you."
Zhou Yue was picked up by her father's side of the family and will become an ace pilot in the future!
The daughter he didn't want might become a captain someday!
"No, that's impossible..."
"Her father's side of the family has never shown up in over a decade, not even at her wedding. How could they possibly come to pick up Zhou Yue suddenly?"
"You're lying, yes, you're lying, you're lying..."
Zheng Fangshu broke down, tears mingling with blood, looking utterly miserable and disgusting.
Liang Guiying ignored him and turned to look at Zheng Wenyong and Zheng Wenqing: "You two are grown up now, you should understand right from wrong. If you don't, then there's nothing I can do."
"Uncle, Aunt, we—"
"It's fine to want to get ahead, but don't have any crooked thoughts, or you'll be the next Zheng Fangshu."
"Uncle, Auntie—"
"Take your grandmother with you."
Grandma Zheng followed her grandson and granddaughter in a daze, while Zheng Fangshu slunk away amidst Chen Zhilan's curses.
The troublemakers left, and the onlookers gradually dispersed as well.
Liang Guiying sighed and met Aunt Wang's eyes, which were full of disappointment.
She opened her mouth, but Aunt Wang turned and left.
As the crowd dispersed, Liang Guiying turned and opened the door.
Just as he pushed the tricycle into the house and was about to go to the Zhong family to pick up Niannian, two unexpected people suddenly appeared.
