Chapter 342: Hu Liru, Do Not Think of Returning to Stir Up Trouble Again

~4 min read 659 words

Hu Jiaxiang now had a splitting headache; he had originally counted on his late wife's cousin-brother-in-law connection to climb even higher, but he never expected that wicked daughter to cause him such a huge trouble.

He was troubled, but his current wife's heart was bursting with joy: with this incident, let's see how Hu Liru dares to return to this family.

Before, when Hu Liru was caught in the act of adultery, it was already shameful enough; if murder weren't illegal, her own husband would have strangled that little bitch. She was kicked out without a single dowry item. If not for fear of people's gossip, she would have laughed out loud.

Now it was even better; the remaining father-daughter bond between her husband and stepdaughter was severed when they blocked the man's promotion.

Originally, she hadn't taken the stepdaughter seriously; now she could rest easy.

Before, she had reservations about Hu Liru, the stepdaughter, because she feared that cousin-aunt would come to demand justice. Now, the girl had dug her own grave and offended this very pillar of support.

From now on, this household would be entirely under her command; after all, she had borne Hu Jiaxiang four sons and two daughters, so her backbone was strong. Hu Liru should not think of stirring up trouble again.

When the group arrived at the Chen family, the Chens were all present.

Hu Liru, now showing her pregnancy, was washing clothes in the courtyard. Seeing the arriving crowd, she was momentarily stunned. When she saw Ding Surong, a hint of awkwardness flashed across her face, but she quickly covered it up: "Father, uncle, cousin, why have you come?"

She deliberately omitted her stepmother Wang Limei, intending to make her feel embarrassed.

Unfortunately, Wang Limei didn't care at all; a look of disdain flashed across her face: At this point, you still play those petty tricks. Do you think I care? You'll have your time to cry soon.

Hu Liru wiped her hands on her clothes and walked straight to Ding Surong, trying to take her arm, but Ding Surong dodged directly.

Hu Liru was stunned: "Surong, what is this?"

Ding Surong glanced at her belly: "Don't you have anything you want to tell me?"

Hu Liru didn't react immediately: "Tell you what?"

Ding Surong swept her gaze over her belly again: "For instance, the child in your belly."

Hu Liru looked down at her own belly, then raised her head with a smile in her eyes and brows: "Yes, I am pregnant. I just haven't had time to tell you yet."

Remembering something, she made a gesture of invitation: "Don't stand here. Come inside and sit."

After speaking, she walked ahead toward the room where he lived, but upon turning around, she found they hadn't followed: "Come on."

At this moment, Ding Youwen spoke up: "Where is your husband?"

Chen Weiping happened to come from the backyard: "Father-in-law, why have you come?"

He knew of Ding Youwen's existence but had never met him, so while speaking, he looked at the Ding father and daughter: "Who are these two?"

Ding Surong sized Chen Weiping up and down: "Are you Hu Liru's husband?"

Chen Weiping nodded: "Yes, who are you?"

A look of disgust flashed in Ding Surong's eyes: "You will know who I am very soon."

After speaking, she took out the prenatal checkup slip from before and slapped it onto Hu Liru: "Won't you explain this to me?"

Hu Liru lowered her head to take the slip: "What is this?"

But as soon as she finished speaking, upon seeing the words on it, her face instantly turned deathly pale: "This, this, this..."

She originally wanted to ask how this got into your hands, but her mind reacted quickly this time, and she forcibly cut off the words about to leave her lips: "Cousin, let's go inside and talk. It would be embarrassing for others to see."
