I'll still put on a show of feigning injury for her.
Qiao Wanyue watched the mother and daughter with a calm and composed expression.
Unfortunately, the stalemate between the mother and daughter did not last long. Liang Yu regretted it when she saw the swelling on Wen Bing's face.
"Qiao Wanyue, we are sorry for what happened to you." Liang Yu bowed to Qiao Wanyue.
Seeing her bend over, Qiao Wanyue instinctively dodged away without even thinking. It was as if a discordant voice in her mind was telling her that she couldn't accept Liang Yu's bow, as it would shorten her lifespan.
Liang Yu's eyes flashed as she saw her dodge away.
Wen Bing crossed her arms and looked at her defiantly, her face swollen like a pig's head, yet she still maintained an air of superiority.
Liang Yu sighed and pulled Qiao Wanyue to sit down.
Where was the arrogance from just moments before?
“Wanyue, I was thirty-five when I got pregnant with her. At that time, I was busy with work and rarely took care of the child, which led to her current personality. She started liking Yunzhou a long time ago. We never expected that her obsession with Yunzhou would be so deep.”
Qiao Wanyue: "So, it was your daughter who wanted to destroy me?"
Liang Yu froze.
She met Qiao Wanyue's icy gaze, and her heart sank.
She opened her mouth, as if to say something.
But words seemed inadequate. Five burly men were bullying a weak woman. If she hadn't been quick-witted, she would have been stripped naked and humiliated long ago. In this era, although she didn't want to be humiliated, she was still pointed at and gossiped about. Liang Yu knew perfectly well what her final fate would be.
Liang Yu closed her eyes in pain.
She is a politician, very familiar with the country's laws, and has particularly strict requirements for the children of officials.
If Lao Wen finds out that this matter is related to Wen Bing.
Wen Bing might feel that Lao Wen felt guilty towards her, but as a married couple, they knew all too well that Wen Bing's persistent pursuit of Lu Yunzhou was just a minor fuss that might damage his reputation; he didn't care that much about his reputation.
If his daughter and Lu Yunzhou were of the same mind, he would naturally be happy to see it happen.
But Lu Yunzhou is dead, and his daughter has acted so cruelly. How will Lao Wen view this matter when he returns from the meeting?
She took a deep breath.
Liang Yu opened her eyes, her gaze clearing. "Wanyue, this matter is settled. Do you think you could..."
Liang Yu chose to protect her biological daughter.
"Comrade Liang, I haven't agreed to the verdict." She said with a smile, "I still want to see the culprit. I want to ask him what hatred or resentment he has towards me that makes him target me like this."
Qiao Wanyue already understood Liang Yu's choice.
She was probably a good person, and was heartbroken by her daughter's behavior the moment she learned the truth.
But she is also a mother, and when she knows her daughter has done something wrong, she will choose to cover it up.
Qiao Wanyue was not surprised at all.
How could Wen Bing have dared to do such a thing without the protection of Liang Yu and Wen Gaohan?
She turned to leave.
"Qiao Wanyue, you stop right there."
As Qiao Wanyue walked to the door, Wen Bing chased after her, trying to stop her. Qiao Wanyue raised her hand and slapped Wen Bing with all her might, sending her sprawling to the ground, her forehead hitting the stone table in the courtyard.
"Bingbing!" Liang Yu was terrified.
Blood instantly streamed down Wen Bing's forehead.
Liang Yu rushed over anxiously. As she passed Qiao Wanyue, she pushed Qiao Wanyue, who was on the steps, to the ground. Qiao Wanyue did not notice Liang Yu suddenly running over, lost her footing, and fell straight to the left.
Below the steps were several thorny roses.
She lost her balance and couldn't lean forward no matter how hard she tried. Just when she thought she was about to be stabbed, a pair of large hands caught her.
"Are you alright?" a deep voice asked.
