“You dare to deny it! I saw it with my own eyes!” Lin Wei was furious and raised her hand, delivering a powerful slap that turned Lu Ming’s head to the side.
Lu Ming was infuriated this time.
He didn’t care about the pain and struggled to get up from the ground. He shouted at Lin Wei, “What’s gotten into you? By what right do you have to control me? Don’t think I don’t know what you and Sheng Quan have been up to! Were you two close to having an illegitimate child?”
“Lu Ming, you!” Lin Wei was trembling with anger. Her exquisite makeup was distorted as she raised her hand and delivered another slap to Lu Ming’s face.
This time, Lu Ming didn’t endure it anymore. He didn’t even consider the fact that she was his biological mother. He pushed Lin Wei down and stormed out of the room, seething with anger.

To his surprise, he collided with Zhou Nan, who had been eavesdropping outside the door.
Lu Ming coldly snorted, “What are you doing here?”
Zhou Nan put on a fake smile, trying to please him, and said, “Auntie told me she had some work to introduce to me today. She asked me to come early and go out with her.”
“Who are you two going to see?” Lu Ming sneered.
Zhou Nan didn’t mind his disdainful expression and continued to smile, saying, “I heard it’s a meeting with a real estate tycoon, Mr. Wang. 1 just arrived here, so 1 don’t know anyone. 1’11 have to rely on Auntie to help me.”
Hearing that his mother was once again involved with a wealthy CEO, Lu Ming’s anger, which he had barely suppressed, flared up once more. “You’re hanging out with these dirty old men all the time. You don’t even consider how old you are! You’re getting old and you’re still trying to cuckold my dad!”
After hearing these words, Zhou Nan shifted her eyes cunningly and said, “Auntie does have her own way. Lin He’s conditions are pretty good, too. She’s still young and beautiful, and she could take Lin He out to see the world more often. She always stays at home and doesn’t go out. She’s become such a recluse!”
Being a man, Lu Ming naturally understood what he was getting at.
Suddenly, dizziness and nausea from the hangover hit him. His face turned waxen, and he pushed Zhou Nan away angrily. “Get lost. You’re a nuisance. Everywhere is filled with trash and sluts!”
Zhou Nan’s warm face turned cold at being called trash for no apparent reason, and he felt the need to settle this score with Lin He.
After all, Lu Ming was her relative, so she should pay for this!
Meanwhile, downstairs, Lin He, basking in the sun with Mei Shu, had no idea that her husband was contemplating how to beat her up again.
She had been keeping Mei Shu company while they did homework and studied together, and over time, they had become quite close.
Sometimes, Lin He would open up to Mei Shu about family matters, but out of pride, she stopped short each time, forced to leave her sentences unfinished by her own self-respect.
Mei Shu didn’t rush Lin He to tell her everything, she simply followed the process of becoming friends with her.
Putting aside Lin He’s infuriating weakness, she was indeed a good girl deserving of a man who loved and cared for her, rather than being married to someone like Zhou Nan, who subjected her to physical abuse.

From a distance, Old Wang spotted a familiar figure and walked over, frowning. “Lin He, who was that girl you were talking to earlier? She looked like someone I know.”
“The girl 1 talked to just now is our neighbor. We don’t know each other that well. She just accidentally dropped something and asked if I’d seen it,” Lin He instinctively defended Mei Shu.
She didn’t want Old Wang and Zhou Nan to target Mei Shu, bringing her trouble.
Old Wang didn’t think too much of it upon hearing Lin He’s explanation. She scolded her, “What are you doing? It’s nearly time to make dinner. My son will be back soon, what are you going to feed him? He’s working hard outside to earn money. Are you going to let him come home and not have a hot meal? Why did we marry you if you’re not even good for that? If you can’t even give birth to a child, can you even call yourself a woman?”
Lin He had been numb to the malicious words of this mother and son. Now that she heard these words, she was no longer as upset as she was at the beginning. “Mom, I understand. I’ll start making dinner now.”
“Why aren’t you hurrying up? Let me tell you, you’re a hen that doesn’t lay eggs. My son is the only one willing to take you in. If you don’t behave and serve both of us, we’ll kick you out, and you’ll have to starve to death.”
The landlady gave her a big roll of her eyes and turned to walk away.
Lin He looked up at the clear blue sky above her and, under the intense sunlight, a single tear rolled down her cheek. She didn’t say anything and had no intention to resist. She silently wiped away her tears and continued to return home, where she would continue to work like an ox and a horse for them.
When Mei Feng came to find Mei Shu, he saw her quietly doing her homework by the window.
He brought some fruits with him and washed them before offering them to her, saying, “Is it really worth it to do so much for such a weak woman? You even rented this house under her place..”
