Chen Meng’er’s words really hit the nail on the head of Matriarch Murong’s current thoughts.
That was because she had told the man and woman who had taken Chen Meng’er to throw the child into some deep mountain forest and let her rot. She meant she wanted them to destroy the corpse and destroy the evidence.
“Matriarch Murong, no matter how much you think, you still can’t control the fate of that girl. At that time, the man and woman had followed your instructions and left me in the wasteland. The weather had already turned cold, and I hadn’t eaten for a long time, so I was extremely hungry. As long as no one found me, I would definitely have died if I had stayed outside for an entire night. However, unfortunately, the King of Hell didn’t want to take me in. Coincidentally, my eldest brother and second brother found me starving. My adoptive parents brought me home and raised me like their own daughter.” Every time Chen Meng’er said a word, Matriarch Murong’s expression became uglier.
At that time, she had bribed the man and woman to take Chen Meng’er away because she wanted them to send Chen Meng’er far away from the capital. Matriarch Murong was also afraid that the matter would be exposed and the Qu family would find out, so, at that time, she had given the money to the man and woman, telling them not to come back to the capital after they were done. Therefore, for so many years, she had always thought that the little baby from back then was no longer in this world.
Although, many times, she would wake up from her dreams at midnight because of the baby’s cries. However, she was not worried at all during normal times, because she had always thought that the little baby from back then was no longer in this world.
Otherwise, the Qu family had spent so much effort to find her. But for more than ten years, they had achieved nothing.
“You’re talking nonsense, how would you know? You were still a baby at that time.” Matriarch Murong was a little flustered. She pointed at Chen Meng’er and said to Qu Yaobing: “Yaobing, don’t believe her nonsense. She is not your and Yingying’s daughter, she definitely has ulterior motives.”
“Enough! Your heart is filthy, don’t think that everyone is like you. Meng’er is our daughter, this is an unquestionable fact. Moreover, it was never her who wanted to cling onto the Qu family’s reputation. It was our family who rushed forward and wanted to take her back to the Qu family.” Qu Yaobing could not tolerate anyone speaking ill of his precious daughter, especially this culprit who had caused their family to be separated from their flesh and blood for more than ten years. “Moreover, only the members of your family have been eyeing the coattails of our family. The coattails of our family are simply not worthy of Meng’er’s eyes.”
Qu Yaobing’s words were not shocking to Matriarch Murong. That’s right, the girl in front of them was already the head of the Liu family and the leader of the Green Gang.
“Since Matriarch Murong is so good to me, if I don’t give her a gift, I really won’t be able to show my face in public.” Chen Meng’er was here today to send the Murong family on their final journey.
“What?” No one would have thought that it would be Murong Di who would answer Chen Meng’er’s question.
Murong Di’s words were met with a glare from Matriarch Murong.
“Don’t be impatient. You’ll know once you return.” Chen Meng’er’s smile, no matter how one looked at it, looked like she was gloating over their misfortune. “Doesn’t everyone understand why Matriarch Murong would be so cruel as to take away her granddaughter and even take her life?” Murong Di nodded. “Hehe, I’ve already given you a hint. I’m not related to Matriarch Murong at all. In other words, she’s not related to Matriarch Murong at all.” Chen Meng’er pointed at Murong Ying and said.
Chen Meng’er still couldn’t open her mouth and call Murong Ying “mom”.
“You’re not my mother’s daughter?” Although Murong Qin asked this, she was probably already certain in her heart that what Chen Meng’er said was true.
“Yes. However, she is still your family’s daughter and she is still your sister. It’s just that she does not have the same mother as you.”
Actually, there was a story that was not known to the public.
Murong Ying was indeed not the biological child of Matriarch Murong. She was the child of a childhood friend of Elder Murong.
Originally, Elder Murong was in love with that childhood friend of his. Although the family background of this childhood friend was not comparable to the Murong family, but because the elders of the Murong family had watched her grow up, they did not object. At first, this should have hada happy ending.
But unexpectedly, in the end, Matriarch Murong jumped in and interfered. She fell in love with Elder Murong at first sight, and Matriarch Murong’s family background was similar to the Murong family’s, and the two families happened to be working together.
So, she forced Elder Murong to part with his beloved girlfriend and marry her.
Elder Murong, who was married to Matriarch Murong, never forgot his first wife. However, his wife disappeared after he got married. The heartbroken Elder Murong began to indulge in debauchery outside.
Later, by chance, Elder Murong met his ex-wife again. Then, a typical love story developed. The two of them rekindled their old love and were inseparable. Later on, Elder Murong’s ex-wife became pregnant.
When Elder Murong found out, he was extremely happy. After he returned, he was determined to divorce Matriarch Murong.
Divorce? How could the Murong family agree to it? Everyone was unanimously against it. Elder Murong’s marriage did not succeed.
However, from then on, Elder Murong moved out of the Murong family and went to live with his ex-wife.
When Matriarch Murong found out that her husband was the main culprit who wanted to abandon them and divorce her, Elder Murong’s ex-wife, his sweetheart, was about to give birth. She took advantage of Elder Murong’s business trip, and went straight to the place where Elder Murong’s sweetheart lived.
Matriarch Murong caused a big scene there. She almost smashed everything in Elder Murong’s sweetheart’s house. As for Elder Murong’s sweetheart, in order to stop Matriarch Murong from smashing his favorite ink slab, she had been pushed by Matriarch Murong and her stomach had hit the corner of the table.
At this point, the outcome was obvious.
Because of that hit, she had only managed to hold on to the child while that sweetheart lost a lot of blood and could not be saved.
If this matter had blown up at that time, Matriarch Murong would have gone to jail. However, those people from the Murong family had joined forces to pressure Elder Murong for the sake of the Murong family’s reputation. They did not allow him to blow this matter up. In the end, Elder Murong had no choice but to compromise. However, what he had managed to obtain in the end was to place the child born from his sweetheart under the care of Matriarch Murong.
Everyone knew very well that Murong Ying was the child who had survived.
