Chapter 338: Mother against Daughter
Chapter 338
"I originally wanted to find an opportunity to tell you, but Zheng Zheng was afraid it would affect you, so she had been holding back without saying anything," Yin Zhongjun said mildly, also with some apology.
Huo Mei Shu stared blankly at this man who had popped out from her mother's room, her mind a complete mess.
It wasn't that she couldn't accept her mother finding someone again, but there were so many scammers these days!
Just like that scumbag Gu Cheng Yan who pretended to be cultured but was actually a villain!
Besides, they hadn't seen each other for decades, right?
Who could guarantee the other person wouldn't change?
"Shut up!"
She yelled at Yin Zhongjun and went to pull Lu Zheng out!
"You're coming home with me right now!"
"I don't object to you finding me a stepfather, but you haven't seen this man for decades. You're so simple-minded to believe whatever anyone tells you!"
"Come home with me now! When my brother has investigated clearly, I'll agree to you two being together!"
"Otherwise, don't even think about it!"
Huo Mei Shu said while pulling Lu Zheng.
Jiang Xu was completely dumbfounded! He had always known Aunt Lu to be very gentle.
Yin Zhongjun was very dissatisfied at being scolded by Huo Mei Shu, but he couldn't show it. He could only pretend to be pained as he defended Lu Zheng, taking the blame onto himself.
Slap!
"Enough!"
In the pulling and tugging, Lu Zheng angrily slapped Huo Mei Shu's face!
"This is my own business. You have no right to boss me around! You can't even handle your own affairs properly, yet you want to meddle in this mother's business?"
"I've already made my decision. No one can change it!"
"Jiang Xu, take her home!"
Lu Zheng said coldly as she shook off Huo Mei Shu's hand and ordered Jiang Xu in a low voice.
Jiang Xu was also shocked by her sudden slap. In his memory, Aunt Lu had always been very gentle.
Huo Mei Shu grasped her cheek, staring at Lu Zheng in shock, puzzlement and confusion until Jiang Xu pulled her away. Only then did she react that she had been hit!
And by her dear mother who had never lifted a finger against her from when she was little!
Lu Zheng watched the two people leave. She turned around to push Yin Zhongjun away and slammed the door shut!
Tears rolled down immediately.
Mei Shu, mother is so sorry to do this to you.
Lu Zheng could only apologize to her daughter in her heart.
Slap!
But before she could grieve, her cheek stung sharply. Her whole body staggered and fell to the ground. There was a bloody taste in her mouth.
"Lu Zheng, you bitch! You're actually moving out of the Huo family?! Did you ask me for permission first?!"
Yin Zhongjun was furious. He slapped Lu Zheng and still wasn't appeased. Grabbing her hair, he dragged her onto the carpet next to the coffee table and slapped her several more times.
When had Lu Zheng ever suffered such treatment?
With just a few heavy slaps, blood was flowing from her nose and mouth. Her whole body was about to lose consciousness.
"What a bitch!"
Yin Zhongjun was extremely annoyed. Worried that he would beat her to death and then have no way to explain it to the Huo family, he stopped.
Lying on the floor, Lu Zheng felt like her soul had left her body, drifting hazily.
She hadn't expected that after living a smooth, easy life for over half a century, a momentary impulse would make her fall into such an abyss.
Yin Zhongjun ignored her after beating her enough. He turned around to go to bed.
Lu Zheng felt as if she had become a lifeless corpse.
She had not done anything bad her whole life. Why would such a devil appear by her side?
It was as if the elegant, gentlemanly Yin Zhongjun from last night had been purely imagined by her!
