Chapter 685: Six hundred eighty-three, getting beaten

"Mom! What did I do wrong?" Li Zhenzhen looked at Gao Meiyun in confusion. Her mother-in-law had gone with her to Xiao Hui’s wedding banquet, so she should know why she came back at this time; why would she still speak to her in such a way?

Gao Meiyun snorted coldly, "You did nothing wrong? Then why were you so happy when you heard that others were saying I was pregnant? Were you trying to embarrass me or embarrass Yiqun?"

"I... I didn’t mean to," Li Zhenzhen shook her head in defense. When she had heard the news of her mother-in-law’s pregnancy, she really hadn’t thought much about it. She had long forgotten about the fact that her father-in-law was infertile. Now that she thought about it, she indeed had made a mistake.

With this realization, Li Zhenzhen quickly apologized, "Dad! Mom! I’m sorry! I really didn’t think that much at the time, and I didn’t mean to embarrass you."

Gao Meiyun stood up, walked over, and slapped Li Zhenzhen across the face, "You didn’t think much? I think you did it deliberately to embarrass us, to embarrass the Cheng Family. Do you think, that since you have someone powerful behind you, you’ve become something special, that you can disregard us?"

"Slap!" She slapped Li Zhenzhen’s face harshly again, "What do you think you are? Unless you divorce Junheng, I will bully you for the rest of my life! Aren’t you very upset? If you have the guts, go back and complain! Let’s see if the Li Family will stand up for you." The Li Family, now relying on Lu Hanmo’s power, had indeed risen in status, but overtaking the Cheng Family was not something that could be achieved in a short while.

They gave the Li Family face because they wanted to please Lu Hanmo and establish a connection with the Lu family. Without Lu Hanmo, the Li Family was nothing!

"Mom, please stop hitting me; I know I was wrong, I apologize! I will never do it again." Li Zhenzhen turned her pleading gaze towards Cheng Junheng, hoping he would speak up for her.

Cheng Junheng leisurely sipped his tea as if he saw nothing, completely ignoring Li Zhenzhen’s pleading gaze. This woman needed a proper lesson to clearly understand her place.

After hitting Li Zhenzhen, Gao Meiyun felt much better all over, and looked down on Li Zhenzhen, who was holding her head and squatting on the ground crying, "Give me back the things I gave you this morning, and if you cause any more trouble in the future, just get out of the Cheng Family!"

Li Zhenzhen didn’t know how long she had cried until she saw a little figure standing beside her, and then she stopped crying, slowly lifting her head and looking at the delicately beautiful little girl in front of her. Her heart was filled with intense guilt and heartache.

At that moment, she really wanted to give up everything, including her daughter, but seeing her little one, how could she have the heart to do so?

She stretched out her hand to hug the little girl into her arms, holding her tightly while tears silently fell.

"Mommy, don’t cry! You still have Xiao Ying, Xiao Ying will always be with Mommy," Cheng Xueying comforted Li Zhenzhen, patting her back with her little hand gently.

Li Zhenzhen sniffed hard and raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face, looking at her daughter, "Xiao Ying, be good! Mommy will take you to sleep." The Cheng Family disliked her so much, not only because her family background was inferior to theirs, but also because she had not given birth to a grandson for the Cheng Family.

"Mommy, does it hurt? Let Xiao Ying rub it for you." Cheng Xueying stretched out her chubby little hand to gently massage Li Zhenzhen’s swollen cheeks.

Feeling a twinge in her nose, tears once again uncontrollably slid down, Li Zhenzhen took Cheng Xueying’s little hand, "Xiao Ying, be good! Mommy isn’t in pain, let’s go upstairs and sleep." For her child, she had to endure.

After sending her daughter back to the room, tucking her in, and kissing her cute little face, Li Zhenzhen turned off the lights, walked out of the room, and softly closed the door behind her, heading to her own room.

Pushing open the door, Li Zhenzhen saw that Cheng Junheng had already taken his shower and was sitting on the bed watching TV.

Li Zhenzhen’s mouth moved, wanting to ask Cheng Junheng if he ever regarded her as his wife, but the words reached her lips and she forcibly swallowed them down. Was there any point in asking?

Walking towards the wardrobe, she took out her pajamas and stepped towards the bathroom.

"Ring, ring, ring!" The telephone by the bedside started ringing at that moment.

Cheng Junheng reached out to answer the call, "Hello!"

"Darling, are you coming over tonight? I miss you so much!" A sultry voice that could melt one’s bones came through from the other end of the line.

Li Zhenzhen halted her steps and turned to look at Cheng Junheng. Even though the TV was on, the voice on the phone was still heard clearly by her. She placed her hand on her heart, sneering at herself mockingly. Why does it still hurt? Hadn’t you known about this for a long time? Did you still have hope for him?

Glancing at Li Zhenzhen, Cheng Junheng said into the phone, "I’ll be there in a bit." How could a man like him, with such a powerful background and outstanding qualities, be content with just one woman?

"Then I’ll go take a shower right now and wait for you to come, alright!" The woman’s voice came from the other end, full of seduction and temptation.

Cheng Junheng felt a fire kindled by the other party’s allure, "You little demoness! Just wait and see how I’ll deal with you later."

Completely disregarding Li Zhenzhen’s presence, he flirted with the woman on the phone for a few more sentences. Cheng Junheng stood up, went to the wardrobe, and started changing his clothes.

Li Zhenzhen endured and endured, but ultimately, she couldn’t hold back anymore. She stepped forward, snatched the clothes from Cheng Junheng’s hand, "Cheng Junheng, do you actually consider me your wife?" In the past, he would at least restrain himself in front of her. Even if there were calls from other women, he wouldn’t have carried on so unscrupulously. Each time he would claim he had business matters and return the call from the study. She had always been well aware, yet she had to pretend over and over that she didn’t understand.

"What do you think?" Cheng Junheng said with a cold sneer, snatching back his clothes and started to dress.

"I want a divorce!" Li Zhenzhen blurted out. The thought had first occurred to her when his mother hit her and he pretended not to see, and just now, when she saw their daughter, she had dismissed the idea. But now, it resurfaced. Since his family held such disdain for her and her daughter, she would leave with Xiao Ying after the divorce.

Cheng Junheng let out a scornful laugh, "Then let’s go through with it tomorrow." Did she think she could threaten him? He had been fed up with her for a long time.

Li Zhenzhen was stunned! She hadn’t expected Cheng Junheng to agree so readily.

Cheng Junheng finished dressing and cast a disdainful glance at Li Zhenzhen before stepping out of the room and slamming the door behind him.

Li Zhenzhen collapsed to the floor, powerless, letting the tears slide down from the corners of her eyes, drop by drop, falling on the ground, blooming into petals of water that quickly disappeared into the red carpet.
