After Chen Meng’er finished telling the story, everyone in the room had different expressions on their faces.
Murong Ying’s face was pale as she leaned against her husband’s chest. At this moment, her eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Matriarch Murong.
Matriarch Murong had never thought that the incident from back then would be exposed by others. It had to be said that the incident back then was the secret that could not be touched in Matriarch Murong’s heart. As time passed year by year, the people who knew about the incident back then left the world one by one. The pressure that had been weighing down on her heart all this time decreased slowly. Just when Matriarch Murong thought that the incident that year would be buried together with those who knew about it, it was forcefully dug out by Chen Meng’er.
This was a piece of good news to Qu Yaobing. Matriarch Murong was not Murong Ying’s biological mother, but was the person who had caused her biological mother’s death. Then the Qu family’s previous worries would no longer exist.
“No wonder. I was just wondering why mother was so cold to Ying. When I was young, she even told me not to always get together with her.” Chen Meng’er did not know what to say.
“Murong Di, shut up. If you don’t speak, no one will take you for a mute.” Murong Qin looked at her mother, who already had a bad look on her face. Because of her brother’s words, she had become even worse. She could not stand it anymore and her face darkened. So she reprimanded Murong Di.
Murong Di was not happy. Ever since he was young, only his mother, Matriarch Murong, could reprimand him. No one else could even think about it. At this moment, his face darkened. “Qin, this is the Murong family. You are a daughter who has long been married off. You have no right to speak here.”
“You, you…” Murong Qin was furious at her brother’s words.
Murong Ying, who had been silent all this while, finally could not hold it in any longer. She stared straight at Matriarch Murong and asked, “Mother, is what Meng’er said true? Am I really your biological daughter?”
Matriarch Murong’s face was as white as a sheet of paper. She raised her eyes to look at Murong Ying. Then, without saying anything, she turned to look at Chen Meng’er.
Chen Meng’er calmly accepted the way Matriarch Murong sized her up. Her eyes were filled with hatred.
“What? Is Matriarch Murong regretting it now? Why didn’t she strangle me to death with her own hands back then? Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such a huge problem now, right?” Chen Meng’er looked at Matriarch Murong.
“Yes, I am regretting it. I regret that I did not kill you with my own hands back then.” Matriarch Murong was truly regretting it. She had been careless back then, and had actually left behind such a hidden danger like Chen Meng’er.
“But unfortunately, Matriarch Murong, there is still no medicine for regret in this world.”
“Chen Meng’er, why are you at my house? Get out of here.” Just as the atmosphere in the room had fallen to the bottom, a sharp and somewhat ear-piercing voice came from the door.
Chen Meng’er didn’t even raise her head, she knew whose voice it was.
