"This is your mistake as the mistress of the house," Mr. Meng pointed at Mrs. Meng and said, "When I asked you at that time, you said that Bai Meilan left a note and left quietly, and that even her family was not alone.
I've been there, but there's not even a soul there. I was so busy with business that I mistakenly trusted you, killing two people, madam."
"Everyone is dead. Master, what do you want me to do? Abandon your wife? Aren't you afraid of being scolded by the world?" Mrs. Meng didn't seem to be afraid of anything. In her mind and body, Mr. Meng would not make the matter a big deal for the sake of reputation.
"Abandoning my wife? I won't," Mr. Meng sighed. "It's a pity that my son Tianbo actually has a child without knowing it."
"Dad, don't be sad, Bo'er will have children in the future." Meng Tianbo 'comforted' Master Meng.
"Good boy," Mr. Meng nodded seriously again.
When Mrs. Meng looked at this, she felt quite uncomfortable. What was the master doing? Did he change his mind again and divide the family property to this stupid son?
"Sir~~" Mrs. Meng wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the voice from outside the door, "Sir, madam, someone has come from the Anyang Marquis' Mansion, and Manager Wang is waiting for them."
When Mr. Meng saw that he was from the Marquis's house, he said, "The matter is now over. I don't want to say anything more. It's just Tianqi. You can take matters into your own hands." After saying that, he strode out without even looking at Mrs. Meng.
"Madam, let's go too," Meng Tianbo hugged Xu Ruoshui and went out.
"Mother...my son has something to ask you." Meng Tianqi looked at Mrs. Meng blankly.
"What?"
"How did Mei Lan die in the well?"
"Tianqi, ask mother, how does mother know this?" Mrs. Meng turned her head and avoided the past, "Maybe she felt that she was pregnant with a fool's child, and the person she loved in her heart was you, so she felt resentful and couldn't think about it.
Bar."
"Meilan, you are so stupid~~"
As soon as they reached the winding corridor, Xu Ruoshui threw away Meng Tianbo and ran all the way to Ningxiang Hall. Yan'er couldn't even catch up. Meng Tianbo thought she was strange, so he didn't let her leave his sight and chased her to the door.
At that time, he grabbed her.
"Why are you so crazy, running so fast?"
"Leave me alone, let me have some peace and quiet." Xu Ruoshui's face was filled with tears. After holding it in Chunhui Courtyard for so long, she could finally vent her tears.
"Why are you crying?" Meng Tianbo pulled her to face him, "I felt strange just now. Every time dad mentioned Miss Xu, you couldn't help but tremble. You even asked Tianqi, what on earth does this have to do with you?
relation?"
Looking into his eyes as clear as water, Xu Ruoshui saw himself in late autumn. Even if he kept reminding himself that it was late autumn, so what, when he saw Meng Tianqi, he wanted to kill him with a knife.
"It doesn't matter, it's just that I don't think it's worth it," Xu Ruoshui's tearful eyes flashed with a trace of hatred.
"Come in." Meng Tianbo didn't believe it at all, and pulled Xu Ruoshui into the house with one hand. He grabbed her so hard that it hurt, but no matter how painful it was, it couldn't hurt, the pain of being torn apart by life.
"I believe you have nothing to do with her, because you never left the house before and didn't know Xu Ruoshui at all. So the reason why you are so sad is Tianqi, right?"
Xu Ruoshui looked at Meng Tianbo in disbelief, why did he know that he was because of Meng Tianqi.
"Do you like him? Are you sad because of his half-heartedness?" Meng Tianbo asked aggressively.
"No, I didn't~~" Xu Ruoshui lowered his head, his tears falling like broken pearls, clear and falling, "How could I still like him?" His voice was too soft to hear.
Meng Tianbo's heart was beating so hard that he could hear it clearly even just standing there, "I don't allow you to like him."
"I said I didn't. I don't like him. Do you understand that?" Xu Ruoshui raised his head and shouted loudly, "How could I like him? I hate him! I hate him!"
This roar made Meng Tianbo's heartstrings tighten even more. Only when you love too deeply can you hate. He grabbed Xu Ruoshui's hand and forced her to face his eyes again, "You hate her? Is it because you love him that you hate so much?"
Go deep."
"I don't understand what you're talking about," Xu Ruoshui replied stubbornly, "You can't ruin my reputation without evidence."
Meng Tianbo's eyes moved around Xu Ruoshui's face, and he intuitively told himself that this woman's words were not trustworthy. She cried so sadly that people couldn't help but want to hold her in their arms and love her, but when they thought of her,
Because of Meng Tianqi's sadness, anger surged in his chest, "Then give me a reason, otherwise I will torture you day and night to let you know that I am your husband."
Torture? Xu Ruoshui no longer cares about physical pain. What she wants most now is Meng Tianqi's life, otherwise living will be more painful than death. Her husband took the betrothal gift and gave it to another woman, and she kept saying
Marrying yourself is already a great favor, who can bear such an insult?
The cold treatment during life and the indifference after death made Xu Ruoshui gnash his teeth with hatred.
"Young Master, since we are in a cooperative relationship, there are some things you don't need to know. I only have one request. As long as you agree, I will do anything you ask me to do."
"Oh? What is it?" Meng Tianbo touched his chin and asked.
"I want Meng Tianqi to live a life worse than death, and a life worse than death." Xu Rushui clenched his fist and hit the table hard, so hard that the tea set on the table jumped.
How can such hatred be transformed by love?
Meng Tianqi could no longer ask why. He sat next to Xu Ruoshui, held her hand in his, and put his other hand on her shoulder, "I promise you."
"I know my duty. Since I am your wife, I will no longer act erratically," Xu Ruoshui said with choked sobs after crying bitterly.
"Stop talking." Meng Tianbo hugged her tightly. At this time, the reasons for hatred were no longer so important. What mattered was that she was by his side and her heart was by his side.
I don't know how much time passed, but the two of them just cuddled each other until Yan'er called out from outside the curtain, "Young Master, Young Mistress, I asked you to go to Wentao Tower because there is something urgent."
Xu Ruoshui quickly stood up and glanced at Meng Tianbo awkwardly. After tidying up his appearance, he said, "I'll go right away."
After getting off the kang, Xu Ruoshui was about to move when someone pulled her back. Meng Tianbo stretched out his hand to straighten the hairpin in her hand, "It's a little crooked and it doesn't look good."
Xu Ruoshui smiled and followed him out.
******Second Floor, Wentao Building*****
Mr. Meng sat at the table, looking at a red post on the table, thinking deeply.
