"It's fine if you did it once, but you've done it twice now. Do you really think that there's no one else in the Lu Family that you can trample on as you please?" Mrs. Lu's anger surged. This morning, she had seen those nonsensical comments on the Internet. They were all fabricated out of nothing and targeted Ye Zhen. They even compared Ye Qing to Ye Zhen to show off Ye Qing's excellence?
What a joke!
She knew very well what kind of person Ye Qing was. Before Ye Zhen had married into the Lu Family, she had dated Ye Qing for a few days.
Mrs. Lu had seen countless people. With just one look, she could tell that Ye Qing was a person with bad intentions. She wasn't a simple and kind person. She had the idea that she wouldn't give up until she achieved her goals. With just one look, people wouldn't want to have a deep relationship with her.
Father Ye and Mother Ye's faces stiffened. Although they weren't sure what had happened, Mrs. Lu was so angry that they could guess that it wasn't a small matter. Ye Qing's Family Ye parents knew very well what kind of person she was. She wasn't someone who would admit defeat. She was probably not convinced that she had lost to Ye Zhen and was secretly trying to regain some face.
Father Ye immediately laughed softly and said, "Mrs. Lu, drink some water and calm down. Right now, Zhen Zhen is the Lu Family's daughter-in-law. We wouldn't dare to casually trample on her. If Qing Qing did anything wrong, as her father, I can't absolve myself from the blame. I apologize to you on her behalf. Please don't take it to heart."
"It's the father's fault for not teaching his child well. Mr. Ye should indeed take responsibility for this. I hope that you, as Ye Qing's parents, can handle this matter well. I don't want to hear any more news about Ye Qing. Today, I came to you as Ye Zhen's mother-in-law. We can still sit at the same table and talk, but if you don't agree, I will take my own measures." Mrs. Lu pushed three bank cards to the two of them. "After all, you are Zhen Zhen's parents. The Internet says that Zhen Zhen isn't filial to you. These three bank cards are Zhen Zhen's way of repaying you for raising her all these years. I think this amount of money should be more than enough."
Father Ye's expression was ugly. Mother Ye's expression was even uglier. She finally understood what it felt like to have someone throw money at her head. However, two years ago, she had also done the same thing.
That was when she found out that Lin Zhan and Ye Qing were together. She had once thrown one million bank cards in front of Lin Zhan and asked him to leave Ye Qing. At that time, she was high and mighty, like a beggar who was casually giving alms to others. Now, she was like a beggar who was being thrown money at to break off her relationship with her daughter. An indescribable sense of humiliation made her tremble all over.
"Mrs. Lu, this … this matter, Zhen Zhen, she …"
"She doesn't need to know!" Mrs. Lu made a prompt decision. "Back then, you also said that a married daughter is like spilled water. She is now the daughter-in-law of the Lu Family, so she is a member of the Lu Family. As her mother, it's best for me to make the decision for her."
Mrs. Lu knew Ye Zhen's temper. She never cared about things that she didn't care about. She had reason to believe that Ye Zhen knew about the news on the Internet. She originally thought that Ye Zhen would at least complain a little in front of her mother-in-law or cry a little. However, she didn't see any changes in Ye Zhen's emotions for the entire day. All of her energy was focused on Zhouzhou.
Ye Zhen could take this lying down, but Mrs. Lu couldn't.
Moreover, this wasn't the first time!
Last time, there were rumors that Ye Zhen had stolen her sister's boyfriend and that Zhouzhou was the child of a mistress!
This time, no matter what, she couldn't let this hidden danger continue to exist!
"Mrs. Lu, forgive me for not agreeing with your words. Ye Zhen is the child that I gave birth to with great difficulty. When I gave birth to her, I almost …"
"You almost died on the operating table, didn't you?" Mrs. Lu sneered. "Don't keep bringing this up. It was your choice to give birth to her, not Zhen Zhen's choice. It wasn't her fault that you died on the operating table. All this time, you've been brooding over this matter and using this as an excuse to say that Ye Zhen owes you. Fine, as her mother-in-law, I'll repay what she owes you. Take this 30 million as a compensation for your mother-daughter relationship with her. Since you've never liked her since she was a child, you don't have to treat her as your daughter anymore!"
"Mrs. Lu, don't be rash! Don't be rash!" Father Ye tried to smooth things over. He glared fiercely at Mother Ye and said with a smile, "I know that we've mistreated Zhen Zhen, but Mrs. Lu, we have to give her a chance to make up for it, right? You see, we're really regretting it now. We shouldn't have treated her differently. Although we were biased, as parents, we still want the best for our children. The relationship between parents and their children, how … how can it be broken with money?! "
Mrs. Lu looked at Father Ye and said, "Mr. Ye, forgive me for being blunt, but when Old Master Lu came to you and asked your family's Ye Qing to marry into Beichuan, he wanted to support the Lu Family. Later on, Ye Qing broke off the engagement and you let Ye Zhen marry into the Lu Family. Why didn't you say that the relationship between parents and their children can't be measured by money? When you pushed your daughter into the fire pit, why didn't you consider that Ye Zhen is also your daughter?! "
"This …" Father Ye said awkwardly, "Mrs. Lu, you can't say that. Your Lu Family is a big family. How can it be a fire pit?! I didn't do it for my own selfish desires. I also did it for Zhen Zhen's future. "
"For the future?" Mrs. Lu's mocking smile deepened. "Back then, Old Master Lu clearly said that marrying into the Lu Family was for the sake of driving away bad luck! Moreover, Beichuan was in a vegetative state for nearly a year at that time. It was unknown whether he could wake up or not. Why? Mr. Ye, do you have the ability to predict the future? Did you know that Beichuan would wake up? "
She exposed him mercilessly. Father Ye's eyes were flustered. He didn't dare to look at Mrs. Lu.
"So," Mother Lu said, "Mr. Ye, Mrs. Ye, I advise the two of you to accept this money and draw a clear line between you and Ye Zhen from now on. Don't disturb her anymore. I think Zhen Zhen doesn't want to be disturbed by you."
"That won't do." Mother Ye shook her head. "I exchanged my life for Ye Zhen's. I have to ask her myself. Otherwise, I'll be her biological mother for the rest of my life!"
"Mrs. Ye, you can't just give birth to a child without teaching her. When you deliberately ignored her, you didn't deserve to be her mother." Mrs. Lu stared at Mother Ye. "I'm tired of saying these things over and over again. I don't want to say anything else. I hope that the incident on the Internet will be the last time it happens. If the two of you can't get Ye Qing to leave the entertainment industry and draw a clear line between her and Ye Zhen, then I'll use my own way to do it. When the time comes, I can't guarantee the dignity of the two of you."
Mrs. Lu pushed the three bank cards in front of Father Ye again.
This time, Father Ye didn't refute.
The 30 million yuan in front of him was a huge sum of money. With the low salary he received from the Ye Group every month, he couldn't make ends meet. Ye Qing hadn't made a name for herself in the entertainment industry yet, so she spent more than she earned. With such a heavy financial burden, Father Ye was really tempted by the 30 million yuan in front of him.
But what he hesitated about was that Ye Qing's future value in the entertainment industry would definitely be more than 30 million yuan.
Looking at the immediate benefits or making long-term plans was a choice that every businessman would make.
But now, hearing Mrs. Lu's tone, if Ye Qing didn't leave the entertainment industry, the Lu Clan would think of ways to make Ye Qing leave the entertainment industry. In that case, not only would his long-term investment not be repaid, even the immediate benefits would slip away from him.
Mother Ye was still shaking her head in refusal. "No!"
Father Ye tugged at her and silently accepted the three bank cards. "Mrs. Lu, as a father, I'm very gratified that Zhen Zhen has a mother-in-law like you who cares about her. I didn't treat this child well in the past, and I didn't make it up to her afterwards. It's my regret." He paused and said sincerely, "Since this child isn't willing to forgive us, then I won't force her. But Mrs. Lu, if Zhen Zhen changes her mind and is willing to come home one day, her mother and I will welcome her back."
Mrs. Lu wasn't too moved by Father Ye's words. "I'll pass on your message. Also, I hope that you, as parents, can deal with Ye Qing's matter as soon as possible."
