"You——" Wu Meng was caught off guard and didn't know how to explain, or perhaps he didn't have time to explain at all, as a slap landed on his face.
"Beast."
Wu Zhengxiong was so angry that his lips turned purple. He pointed his finger at Wu Meng's nose and hugged the woman tightly in his arms to comfort her.
The woman had an expression of having suffered a great injustice, crying heartbreakingly, crying in agony. Her delicate and pitiful appearance almost made Wu Meng have the illusion that he really was sorry for her.
"Dear, it's okay. I'm here. If he dares to touch you, I will kick him out of the house and pretend that I never gave birth to this rebellious son."
After hearing what Wu Zhengxiong said, the woman cried even harder.
Wu Zhengxiong pulled the sheet wrapped around her, trying to cover her exposed skin as much as possible, put his arm around her slender waist, and turned away mercilessly.
Wu Meng covered his burning face with his hands, his eyes filled with grievance.
Wu Zhengxiong actually believed the woman's one-sided story and without allowing him to explain, he was forced to commit such a shameful and humiliating crime.
Wu Meng had only seen such plots on TV. He never dreamed that it would happen in real life, and it would happen to him.
He was filled with hatred and despair towards this already broken home.
From that day on, Wu Zhengxiong was no longer the caring and obedient father he once was. Wu Zhengxiong hated him to the core, and would beat or scold him for the smallest of things. He never treated him kindly, and he almost kicked him out.
From then on, Wu Meng changed completely. He was no longer the good boy that everyone praised. He dropped out of school and started to wander around the society. He lived a life of drunkenness and dreams every day.
He no longer believed in family affection or love, and treated women as toys for entertainment.
Later, he learned that the woman had plotted to have Wu Zhengxiong drive her out of the house so that she could take over the Wu family fortune. Unfortunately, she failed to do so.
But although she failed to drive Wu Meng out of the house, she did succeed in driving Wu Meng out of Wu Zhengxiong's heart.
Wu Zhengxiong would rather carefully cultivate his younger son than whip his once perfect son who was stuck in the mud.
Qing Ke was listening intently. Her stomach was already full, and she didn't have the heart to interrupt Wu Meng.
She didn't expect that this seemingly cynical Wu Meng actually had such an unknown past.
After Wu Meng finished speaking, his expression became particularly heavy.
Qing Ke also felt very uncomfortable. She was angry at the woman and sympathetic towards Wu Meng. In short, her mood was very complicated.
"They say family disgrace should not be made public. I've never wanted to mention this to anyone, but for some reason, I somehow managed to tell you. Did it affect your appetite?"
There was a hint of sadness in Wu Meng's tone, something Qing Ke had never seen before.
"How could that be? I've already eaten."
Wu Meng called the waiter to settle the bill, and the two walked out of the restaurant side by side.
"Are you going back to the company or home? I'll take you there."
Wu Meng was probably still affected by the past and had not yet recovered. He was dejected and spoke weakly.
"Well, I want to give myself a half-day discount and go to a movie. Are you interested in going with me?"
Qing Ke didn't know whether she sympathized with Wu Meng. Thinking of her previous bad attitude towards him, she felt a little guilty and planned to compensate Wu Meng by watching a movie.
Wu Meng was instantly revived with full health.
"Okay! It's my duty."
Wu Meng drove the car and the two went to the cinema to watch a movie, and then went to the amusement park.
Wu Meng was as happy as a child.
He hadn't been so happy for a long time. It was Qing Ke's appearance that made him find hope in life.
From then on, Qing Ke's attitude towards Wu Meng took a 360-degree turn. She was no longer cold to him, and she often accompanied Wu Meng out to eat, go shopping, etc.
Wencai was injured and had no strength to bother Qingke anymore. This undoubtedly gave Wu Meng an opportunity to take advantage of him.
Time slipped away from our fingertips, and it was almost time for Shumei to collect her wages.
In order to have money to take Shuangning to find Shumei, Zhang Binglin planned to intercept the letter Shumei sent back.
In recent days, he has done nothing but stroll around the village chief's house every day and ask the village chief several times a day whether Shumei's letter has been sent.
Zhang Xiaoqin was still as lazy as ever. With the living expenses Shumei sent back, she lived a life of ease and comfort. In her current situation, she didn't want a life of luxury. As long as she had enough to eat and drink every day, she was content.
She could still use Shuang Ning to amuse herself from time to time, and her life was quite comfortable.
It was a sunny day today. Wu Ju found a pile of dirty clothes after lunch. Under Wu Ju's coercion, Xiao Shuangning squatted on the ground and used her little hands to help Wu Ju wash the clothes.
"Push harder. Didn't you eat? You're tickling her. Can you get the clothes clean?"
While rubbing the clothes in her hands, Wu Ju used her other hand to throw a handful of foam on Shuang Ning's face, roaring loudly and harshly.
Shuang Ning didn't dare to utter a sound. She wiped the foam off her face with her slender arms and continued to scrub the clothes in the basin. Tears of grievance fell into the basin like raindrops, merging with the laundry water.
She could find no other way but to suppress her inner fear with tears. She was helpless, too young to resist, and lived in fear every day, trembling with fear at the slightest sign of trouble.
