Hearing Shuxin's words, Cao Guifang instantly recalled that Shu Mengling had been raped by a man. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She slammed her chopsticks on the table and looked at Shu Mengling with disappointment and anger in her eyes. "To think that I doted on you so much in the past. I thought that you would bring glory to the Shu family in the future because you were obedient and sensible. I didn't expect you to be so …"
Cao Guifang found it hard to continue. She paused for a moment to catch her breath before continuing, "I'm old and blind. I've misjudged you. I've spoiled you like a treasure for so many years. If I knew you were such a plaything, I wouldn't have let your mother give birth to you."
"Grandma …" Cao Guifang had always doted on her. She had never said such harsh words to her. Shu Mengling felt wronged. Her tears flowed down, but she didn't dare to cry out loud. She bit her lip and cried until her shoulders shook.
Jiang Tingrou's heart ached for her daughter when she saw how wronged she was. However, she didn't dare to say anything. The more she said, the more mistakes she would make. She could only cry at the side.
Shuxin stood up and walked behind Cao Guifang. She gently stroked her back to calm her down. "Grandma, don't be angry. What do you think about this? Why don't we let Ling 'er and Xiao Ruize get engaged before the news gets out? It's best for them to get married, but Ling 'er is only 17 years old. She hasn't reached the legal age for marriage yet. We let them get engaged first. Once their relationship is confirmed, no one will say anything. What do you think? "
Shu Mengling raised her head and wanted to disagree, but Jiang Tingrou grabbed her hand in time and shook her head at her.
Shu Mengling bit her lip hard and didn't say anything. However, the hatred she had for Shuxin in her heart grew deeper.
What did it mean to bring evil upon oneself?
What did it mean to lift a rock only to drop it on one's own foot?
It was referring to Shu Mengling, this kind of vicious person.
In the end, the matter was settled. They planned to meet Xiao Ruize's parents and choose a good day to hold their engagement ceremony.
Back in the room, Shu Mengling held Jiang Tingrou's hand and cried, "Mom, help me. I don't want to marry Xiao Ruize. I don't want to live a hard life with him. Why did dad oppose Shuxin dating Xiao Ruize? He was afraid that Shuxin would suffer with him.. I'm dad's daughter too. how can he be so cruel to me?"
Although Jiang Tingrou was angry at Shu Mengling, seeing her daughter cry so pitifully, her heart ached.
She was a son-in-law... and her status in the Shu family.. and she wouldn't have to be humble in front of her. Shu's daughter.. She wouldn't she then. and 'would's.. and she wouldn't have to be so humble and she..
Now that all of this had turned into a bubble, she was also very unwilling.
.... she. she...... she... she....... it.
That woman's daughter was the apple of her eye, the precious daughter of a wealthy family.
Her daughter... deserved to marry a poor guy?
Jiang Tingrou clenched her fists. Her eyes were full of hatred. "You got engaged with Xiao Ruize first …"
"I don't want to. I like Huo Jibai …"
"What are you mumbling about? Can't you hear me out first? " Jiang Tingrou interrupted Shu Mengling coldly. "The engagement is only a temporary measure. Let your grandma and dad cool down first. Then I'll think of a way to help you take on acting roles. If you become famous, everything will be easy."
