“Wife of the Eastern Theater Command[China’s military warzones are divided into Theater Commands] A’s Commander-in-Chief, that’s not a position that just about anybody can take on! Why don’t you take a look at yourself? A single widow with a child as a burden? Dream on!”

“What do you have to compete against Shen Lingshuang with? She is someone with a strong family background and status who is prettier and has maintained herself better than you as well. You’re nothing more than an auntie in her fifties, and yet anybody would think that Shen Lingshuang is barely in her thirties just from her appearance. What makes you think that you can KO Shen Lingshuang and get married to that Old Man Lu? Why don’t you take a look in the mirror and see just who you are?”

Every single word of Yan Zi’s was extremely nasty as though they were invisible whips that were lashing out onto Su Liping’s face.

“Shut up!” Su Liping was riled. “What do you know! Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re trying to do…! You had better keep your thoughts to yourself, thinking about all those…!”

“Me? What am I thinking of?” Yan Zi interrupted her again. She rubbed her hair and scoffed coldly, “Oh, that’s right! I’ve taken a liking to her son and wants to get married to him. Because of that, I naturally can’t let YOU get married to that old man then.”

Su Liping ground her teeth. “Which of his son have you taken a liking to? You’ve only met one of his sons, that Lu Yanchen, and he’s already married! Ah Zi, everything that I’m doing is all for your sake.”

Yan Zi mocked her. “Isn’t that Old Man Lu married as well? Hell, he even has four sons! Why can YOU marry him then? It’s not as though his wife is dead yet. Also, if it’s for my sake, should I be the one to marry into the Lus? Or, unless you’re telling me that there’s a family that’s better than the Lus for me out there?”

Suddenly, as though she had recalled something, she continued.

“Oh… right, didn’t you tell me yesterday that Lu Yanchen wanted to divorce his wife? Wasn’t she the one who was sticking onto him shamelessly, begging him not to get a divorce? Furthermore, he seemed to be really cold to that wife of his during breakfast today as well. Clearly, he doesn’t really fancy her that much, and I doubt it’ll be long before they get divorced.”

Su Liping was gritting her teeth fiercely to try and stabilize her emotions. After a long time, she spoke up, “I’m telling you, you can marry anyone but the Lus. I know what you’re trying to do. It’s not that you’ve taken a liking to Lu Yanchen, you merely want to take revenge on the Lus. Haven’t you pestered that fiancée of Lu Yanchen back then to try and make use of her to take revenge on the Lus as well? Luckily, I brought you away. Why can’t you understand at all even after I’ve repeated myself so many times? The Lus have nothing to do with why my relationship with your father was so bad, and I’ve not let your father down either.”

Because she once wanted a divorce, her husband was constantly assuming that she could not let go of that first love of hers, and in his depression, led to the car accident.

Because of that, her daughter was convinced that she was committing adultery with Chief Lu on the sly and was filled with hatred and vengeance.

This was completely unreasonable!

Yan Zi looked at her with a dark gaze as she hollered, “Stop talking with such righteousness! It makes me want to puke! If not because of these Lus, my daddy wouldn’t have died! Even before he died, he even helped you to make a phone call! He loved you so much and yet you betrayed him! You clearly know that I hate the Lus down to the core, and yet you insist on bringing me to stay at their place! It’s clear that you just want to make use of me to do something wrong and cause troubles in this family so that you can take advantage of the situation and get married to that Old Man Lu!”

Su Liping’s heart clenched up as she barked, “I am your mother!”

Yan Zi was unmoved. “In my heart, my mother had already died 10 years ago!”
