Chapter 68: Since it's a backing, the more the better

~7 min read 1,246 words

"You're the one who's Tang Tang's adoptive mother?" The Xie couple could hardly believe it; the woman before them actually claimed she was Xie Wantang's adoptive mother.

"Yes, I'm Tang Bao's adoptive mother. I'm usually busy with work, and this time I also came for a free clinic in Sijiucheng."

"That... the one from the countryside last time?" Mother Xie was so shocked her eyes went wide.

"That was Mother Wang, who usually takes care of Tang Bao's daily life."

……

Mother Xie was so annoyed she wanted to slap her thigh.

She looked at Xie Wantang, "Tang Tang, you said you—such a huge mess, why didn't you tell us earlier? Our two families…"

"Mrs. Xie, you should know why I didn't say it earlier. No matter who raised me, what you want is already in my hands. As for both parties, I think staying out of each other's way is best."

Xie Wantang has always been very cold toward them; she doesn't believe them, and they can't detect it.

They know, and they even deliberately try to curry favor, simply because they haven't taken enough advantage of her?

Now, knowing that Xie Ningmeng is her adoptive mother and that her adoptive father is Qin Siyuan of Haishi, the couple's eyes darted around like a weasel.

She already knows what they're trying to scheme.

But they don't understand her, let alone her adoptive mother Xie Ningmeng.

Xie Ningmeng publicly exposing their relationship shows she isn't afraid of them at all and won't give them a chance to scheme.

"Tang Tang, look at what you said—how is that called a disturbance? Dad thinks our two families can stay closely connected in the future, after all we're one family, right?" Mr. Xie was shameless to the extreme.

"Sorry, Mr. Xie, we are two families, not one family."

"By the way, if you leave now, you can take Tang Bao's bride price. If you continue to harass Tang Bao and me, I'll have Lawyer Qin demand the bride price that belongs to Tang Bao from you."

"Lawyer Qin is Tang Bao's big brother Qin Muyang; you can look him up online. It's said he devours people without spitting out the bones."

Qin Muyang: "Achoo…"

At this moment, Qin Muyang, who was working overtime, suddenly felt an itchy nose and couldn't help but sneeze.

There's no wind, it's not cold; why did he sneeze for no reason?

Very strange.

"Mrs. Qin, there's a misunderstanding between us," Mother Xie stepped forward, still trying to flatter Xie Ningmeng.

"Since this is our first meeting, there's naturally no misunderstanding. I still have business with Tang Bao, so I must take my leave."

Xie Ningmeng rejected Mother Xie's flattery and left briskly with Xie Wantang.

As the Xie couple tried to chase after them, a hotel security guard stopped them.

Xie Wantang's mouth curved slightly.

Truly overconfident; normally she is too lazy to bother with them.

Being polite and yielding to them was originally just for Lu Yanshen's face.

Now that she's completely done with Lu Yanshen, they are naturally insignificant.

Not only them, but everyone connected to Lu Yanshen is insignificant.

Once inside the room, Xie Ningmeng took on the task of helping Xie Wantang pack her things, then urged her to draft a new divorce agreement.

The mother and daughter each took responsibility for one task.

Downstairs.

Mr. and Mrs. Xie stared at each other, never having imagined that Haishi's Qin Family is Xie Wantang's real family.

No wonder; all this time they've felt Xie Wantang possesses an indefinable pride.

Previously, they racked their brains trying to figure out where this pride came from in a country girl like her.

Back then, how could they be so naive to think she truly grew up in the countryside?

An ordinary countryside couple couldn't raise such a proud daughter.

Now they finally understand, but unfortunately the daughter is completely gone.

Had they treated Xie Wantang better over these three years, perhaps today Xie Ningmeng would still look up to her.

But now, it's too late for any words.

After the couple's remorse, they remembered that today they originally came to persuade Xie Wantang not to divorce Lu Yanshen, so as not to implicate the Xie family.

Now it seems that even if Xie Wantang divorces, her future life won't be affected at all.

She has the Qin family as a great backing, which is enough.

The tragic ones are their whole family.

……

After packing their things, Xie Wantang and Xie Ningmeng left. The private butler stood at the door, watching them with suitcases, and stepped forward: "MrsLu, what's this?"

"From now on call me Miss Xie. I'm moving out today; I won't come back. By the way, there's a document on the coffee table inside; when Mr. Lu returns, remind him to sign it."

"…Yes."

At that moment, the elevator dinged, and Su Nianchu walked out.

She looked as if she'd just been socializing with friends; her face was flushed, and from a distance a faint sweet, cloying scent of alcohol lingered.

Su Nianchu wasn't drunk; when she saw Xie Wantang dragging a suitcase face-to-face, she couldn't help but curiously ask, "Miss Xie, what's this?"

"Oh, I'm moving to another hotel, Miss Su. Until we meet again."

"Okay," Su Nianchu nodded.

Soon, Lu Yanshen received a call from the private butler and Su Nianchu, but he didn't rush back immediately.

Late at night, Lu Yanshen finally returned from Old Cat Private Kitchen.

After entering the room, he sensed many things were missing; at a glance he saw the divorce agreement on the living room coffee table, already signed by Xie Wantang.

In the agreement, Xie Wantang still leaves clean, taking none of his assets.

As for the child section, she doesn't have to bear any responsibility.

No responsibility, accordingly, naturally also no rights.

Three years of marriage, it seems Xie Wantang is just to borrow his seed.

This time, Lu Yanshen did not hesitate, signed his name.

The three characters Lu Yanshen, dragon-flying phoenix-dancing, for this signature he practiced three months, finally practicing without a flaw.

After signing, Lu Yanshen took a photo and sent it to Xie Wantang.

Also attached a sentence: "On the day the child is born safely, on his birth certificate, don't write the three characters Lu Yanshen."

"Rest assured, absolutely not." Soon, Xie Wantang replied.

"Good."

After waiting a while, not waiting for Xie Wantang's reply, Lu Yanshen took a cigarette from the cigarette box, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, lit it, and took a deep drag.

In the night, that scarlet appears and disappears intermittently.

On that side, after Xie Wantang replied, she recalled Lu Yanze and Liu Shiyue wanting to have a child.

"Sure." Xie Ningmeng agreed to take Liu Shiyue's pulse, but didn't give Xie Wantang a number, "Anyway, this Lu Family, we at least need to go once, when negotiating with the Lu Family's two elders, I'll take the pulse then, no need to register."

Moreover, no need to go to the hospital, occupy someone's spot.

"Good."

"Your elder brother arrives tomorrow morning."

"Ah?"

"What ah? No, your elder brother alone isn't enough, I'll call your dad and second and third brothers too, since it's backing, the more people the better."

Xie Wantang: "..."

Xie Ningmeng is usually rational, but once she becomes emotional, no one can withstand.

For example, now she wants the whole family to come together, then each person must come.
