"How...how could you say that? I'm your own sister! Our parents have always taught us to respect and love each other, and to support one another. Now that I'm in trouble and I've asked you for help, how can you not help me?"
Liang Yueling looked at Liang Xunling with innocent eyes, her eyes red-rimmed, as if she had been extremely wronged.
She seemed to think that Liang Xunling helping her was a matter of course.
Upon hearing her words, Liang Xunling burst out laughing, as if she had heard a hilarious joke.
"Mutual respect and love, mutual support—how dare you say those words? As my older sister, when have you ever shown me any love or kindness?"
That's absolutely ridiculous!
In an instant, Liang Xunling's smile vanished, and she glared coldly at Liang Yueling, saying:
“From childhood to adulthood, your favorite thing to do is bully me. You take advantage of our parents’ doting on you and always hit and scold me without restraint. You dump all the tasks that our parents assigned to you on me. When you do something wrong, you always frame me and make me take the blame. If you see something that my friends give me and like it, you will not hesitate to snatch it from me! How dare you talk about mutual respect and love? Mutual support? When have you ever supported me?”
Because of her parents' favoritism, Liang Xunling has always been an insignificant presence in the Liang family since she was a child.
Her older sister and younger brother could bully her at will. Even if she told her parents about her grievances, they would side with her older sister and younger brother and never say a word in her defense.
The worst thing Liang Xunling heard most often was—
You are the younger sister, you have to respect your older sister. How can you argue with your older sister?
You're the older sister, you have to give way to your younger brother, after all, he's younger than you...
You should be a sensible and good child!
Thinking about all this, Liang Xunling felt extremely agitated, and she looked at Liang Yueling with increasingly cold eyes, saying:
"Luckily, I married better than you. If our identities and roles were reversed, you definitely wouldn't help me, and you would probably just stand by and laugh at me."
It was because Liang Xunling met Li Qirui and became the young mistress of the Li family that her life was able to take a turn for the better, and she gained a certain degree of influence in the Liang family.
But those people still treated her like a fool and kept sucking her blood.
Fearing that Liang Xunling really wouldn't help her, Liang Yueling quickly changed her attitude, seemingly sincerely apologizing to Liang Xunling:
"Xunling, I know I've done many things that have wronged you in the past. I know I was wrong. Please give me a chance to make amends, okay?"
"We're sisters after all, blood is thicker than water. Even for Mom and Dad's sake, you should help me!"
Upon hearing that she had once again invoked her parents to support her, Liang Xunling became furious and directly questioned Liang Yueling:
"Why should I help you? What right do I have to help you? Is there any law that says I have to help you?"
"you……"
Liang Yueling was speechless for a moment. She was about to open her mouth to make some excuses when Liang Xunling ruthlessly interrupted her.
“Gamblers don’t deserve sympathy. If you’re asking me for money because of your gambling husband, I advise you to give up! My money is earned by my husband through hard work, it didn’t grow on trees. You feel sorry for your husband not having money to gamble, but I feel sorry for him having his money wasted by a gambler!”
Liang Xunling gave Liang Yueling a look of utter disdain and warned her sternly:
"You are not allowed to appear near the Li Family Manor again! If you follow me like you did today, I will call the police immediately. If things get ugly, it won't look good for anyone!"
As soon as the words left her lips, Liang Xunling turned and left, leaving Liang Yueling with a resolute silhouette.
This time, Liang Xunling will no longer be held hostage by so-called family ties and morality.
She has completely seen through Liang Yueling's true colors and will no longer be foolish enough to be schemed against by her like before.
As Liang Yueling watched Liang Xunling's retreating figure, she unconsciously clenched her fingers tightly, her nails digging into her palms. She seemed oblivious to the pain, gripping even harder until her knuckles turned noticeably bluish-white. An endless resentment surged in her eyes…
In order not to affect the mood of Li Mujun and Li Xinyan, Liang Xunling went to the restroom to look in the mirror before returning to the private room, adjusting her expression and smile to be in perfect condition before she returned to the private room.
Upon seeing his aunt return, Xiao Yanbao hurriedly asked with concern, "Auntie, what did you go to do? Why did it take you so long to come back?"
The soft, sweet voice that reached my ears was incredibly soothing.
Liang Xunling's mood instantly brightened, and she smiled as she spoke to the children:
"I'm so sorry to have worried you! Is all the food served? Let's start eating!"
"The dishes have all been served. Yanbao said we should wait for Auntie to come back before we eat together, so neither of us ate a single bite. We just drank some beverages."
Li Mujun said something to her aunt, and then touched her already empty stomach with a hint of grievance.
If his aunt doesn't come back soon, he'll probably be so hungry he'll eat the cup that holds his drinks.
"I'm so sorry! Hurry up and eat something!"
Liang Xunling apologized to the two children again and then urged them to eat.
After eating for a while, Xiao Yanbao looked up at Liang Xunling and couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, who did you go to see?"
Upon hearing this, Liang Xunling paused slightly in her eating and asked curiously, "How did Yanbao know?"
"Because when my aunt returned to the private room, she had a different aura than usual, which she must have picked up from someone else."
Moreover, it was filled with a dark aura that carried bad luck, which wasn't a good sign.
Xiao Yanbao, with a serious expression, reminded Liang Xunling, "Aunt, if you encounter any difficult people or situations, be sure to tell everyone in time. Don't try to handle it all alone!"
The last car accident almost cost Liang Xunling her life, and she was worried that this time the chances of survival were slim.
Upon hearing Xiao Yanbao's words, Liang Xunling's expression also became serious.
The little boy was right; Liang Yueling and her family are indeed a very difficult group to deal with.
Her rational decision not to lend her the money this time doesn't mean the matter is over.
Given Liang Yueling's personality, she will definitely persist relentlessly until she achieves her goal.
But how exactly will she achieve her goal?
Liang Xunling didn't know either...
"You damn bitch! You're utterly useless! I asked you to borrow some money from your parents, and you couldn't even do that. What use are you to me? I might as well just beat you to death!"
When Liang Yueling returned home empty-handed, she was brutally beaten by her husband, Gao Ping.
This time, Gao Ping even used his foot, kicking Liang Yueling in the stomach and knocking her to the ground. Then, a hail of fists rained down on her mercilessly...
