Chapter 1184 - 1184 It Is All Because of You
1184 It Is All Because of You
“It’s none of your business where I’m going! Just get out of the way! Don’t block my way!” He Mei was so exasperated that she wanted to shove Qian’e to one side. Zheng Peng quickly pulled Qian’e into his arms and frowned at He Mei.
He Mei looked at Zheng Peng with some interest. She knew who this person was, but Zheng Peng probably did not know her. He Mei had studied painting for a few years after all. She often heard people say that a young master from the Zheng family had dared to drop out of school to study art overseas. Old Master Zheng was so angry that he lay sick in bed for a few months.
“How did the two of you get together? But it’s actually not that surprising. Trash will always look for trash. To a certain extent, the two of you are really a match made in heaven! An unfilial son and a crippled daughter are really a perfect match!” He Mei said mockingly.
Qian’e wanted to go forward to hit He Mei, but Zheng Peng stopped her. It was not worth it to quarrel with a crazy woman and get angry with her.
However, that was not what Qian’e was thinking. She did not care if He Mei scolded, belittled or admonished her. It did not matter to her what others said.
However, she could not allow the same for Zheng Peng. She could not accept others insulting him. He had clearly done nothing wrong, so he should not receive any unfair treatment.
“Say that again!” Qian’e roared furiously.
“Why can’t I say it? I’ll say it countless times! Did you also cut off your ears when you cut out your womb? Why can’t you understand what I’m saying? So what if I want to say more? What can you do to me? Ha, you should take a look at yourself in the mirror! Who do you think you are!” After saying that, He Mei spat on the ground.
Zheng Peng also felt like teaching He Mei a lesson, but he was brought up not to bully women. Even if a woman bared her fangs and brandished her claws, he still should not hurt the woman.
“Miss He, please speak with more respect,” Zheng Peng warned.
“Respect? As if the two of you are worthy of it! I’ll respect anyone! But not the two of you! An indecent couple asking me for respect! How shameless!” He Mei said disdainfully.
He Mei did not have any beef with Zheng Peng, but she would never let Qian’e off. If not for Qian’e, she would not have to live in that godforsaken place for so long! Other than fetching water, chopping firewood, washing clothes, cooking and doing other chores every day, she even had to go to the mountains to find food for herself!
There was even one time when she did not have anything to eat for two days and fainted on the path in the village. Even when someone saw her, they did not reach out to save her.
At that place, rations were very scarce. If anyone saved He Mei, it meant that the person’s family would not have enough food. No one was willing to let their family members suffer to save a complete stranger.
In the end, she had regained consciousness on her own and slowly crawled back to the house, saving her own life.
“Don’t argue with her. Let’s go and get the security officers. As long as the security officers can control her, it’ll be fine.” Qian’e grabbed Zheng Peng and was about to leave when He Mei went back on her word and reached out to hold Qian’e back.
“You want to leave? Who says you can leave! We haven’t settled our scores yet! Don’t even think about leaving!” He Mei said fiercely.
“Me and you? I have nothing to say to you! Let go of me!” Qian’e said.
“How can there be nothing? Aren’t you the one who told me that Qiao Mei had a miscarriage? So how can she have given birth! You’ve lied to me all along. You join forces with the Xia family to lie to me. You’re really vicious!” He Mei said resentfully.
“Ha, I’m vicious? Aren’t you the one who caused my health to end up like this!” Qian’e said agitatedly.
At the mention of this, He Mei laughed out loudly. This was probably the thing she was most proud of. Only a fool like Qian’e would believe her.
“You deserve it! That’s what you deserve! Why are you blaming me for it? You clearly reaped what you sowed. What has it got to do with me? Did I ask you to sleep with Ma San? Am I the one who made you pregnant? Is the child you had my child? Don’t pretend to be the good person here!” He Mei said.
