Chapter 273: Chapter 273: Liu Lili Can’t Bear It Anymore

"If it weren’t for meeting Xiao Xiao, who encouraged me and told me it’s not my fault, I might have really done something rash." Wu Yingying looked at Fu Xiaoxiao, her eyes full of gratitude.

Fu Xiaoxiao supported her, giving Wu Linlin a new playmate, making her no longer afraid to interact with others, and rediscovering herself.

Even though Fu Xiaoxiao didn’t acknowledge it, feeling she hadn’t done much, in Wu Yingying’s heart, she was her savior.

"This... this is just too vile." Qin Shuang couldn’t believe that Wu Yingying, whom she revered in her childhood, had also encountered a scumbag and nearly fell into depression and sought death?

"What happened to that bastard now?" Qin Shuang gritted her teeth, thinking that bastard deserved a good beating.

"Now?" Wu Yingying’s lips curled into a smile.

"I made him lose everything and end up in prison! If I’m not mistaken, he’ll be serving many years, and as for his lover, she was dumped by her fiancé and has been dismissed from the factory. And the bastard’s parents, after their house at the factory was taken back, skulked back to the countryside!"

Wu Yingying felt extreme satisfaction after venting her anger; the bastard’s comeuppance was long overdue.

Previously, she was too naive, blaming herself for everything, thinking she wasn’t good enough, unaware that those two had been planning to approach her all along, as Fu Xiaoxiao put it, she had been deliberately brainwashed.

Fu Xiaoxiao chuckled lightly. "After she let out the bitterness in her heart, she became full of energy again."

"Exactly, I now feel the world is too beautiful, and dying would be too much of a waste." Wu Yingying laughed, a stark contrast to her former gloomy self.

"That’s fantastic." Qin Shuang clapped. "Now that’s the Sister Yingying I know."

"And you? How have you been lately?" Wu Yingying looked at Qin Shuang.

"Ask Xiao Xiao! She knows better than I do. Recently, my family has been falling apart." Qin Shuang shook her head, feeling a headache.

"What happened?" Wu Yingying looked at Fu Xiaoxiao.

"Her sister-in-law couldn’t take it anymore, her brother finally came to his senses, and moved out with his wife and son. Now, her mother is flipping out at home! She doesn’t dare to go back and face the storm, so she ran over here to hide." Fu Xiaoxiao pointed towards the neighboring Qin Family, where Mrs. Qin’s angry yelling could still be faintly heard.

"Sister Yingying, I also want to move out, really, my mom is suffocating me." Qin Shuang lamented, constantly bombarded by her mother’s negative emotions; she desperately wanted to escape too.

But she wasn’t married, and her work unit hadn’t assigned her a room, leaving her nowhere to run.

"It’s no big deal, you can stay at my place." Wu Yingying said with a smile. "Anyway, it’s just me and Little Linlin at home. If you want to come over and stay for a few days, you’re more than welcome."

"Really?" Qin Shuang’s eyes lit up.

But after some thought, she shook her head. "It’s better not; I don’t want to trouble you."

"My mom has one foot out of commission, if I also move out, she’ll go crazy." Qin Shuang sighed; if she ran away now, her mom would definitely threaten suicide.

"Qin Shuang! Where the hell are you!? Trying to let me die of thirst? You come back now and don’t even bother to get me a drink! Where are you?" As soon as she finished speaking, there came Mrs. Qin’s shout.

Qin Shuang clasped her hands together, waved apologetically to Fu Xiaoxiao and Wu Yingying.

She hurried back home to tend to her frantic mother.

"This is far from over." Wu Yingying said with certainty after hearing Fu Xiaoxiao’s account.

"I think so too; it seems she’s gone mad." Fu Xiaoxiao agreed. "It’s the first time her son dared to defy her so openly, moving out with his wife and child, it’s a slap in her face, isn’t it?"

Sure enough, Fu Xiaoxiao and Wu Yingying’s predictions quickly came true.

The child, after all, had to go to school, and when Liu Lili dropped off her child, she saw the furious Mrs. Qin, who marched forward intending to slap Liu Lili.

Luckily, Fu Xiaoxiao was nearby and quickly pulled Liu Lili away.

Mrs. Qin missed hitting Liu Lili, fell to the ground, and spewed vulgarities in a fit of rage.

Fu Xiaoxiao glanced at the ashen-faced Liu Lili, clearly realizing she was no match for Mrs. Qin.

"Liu Lili, how could you instigate my son to move out of our home! You unfilial creature, give me back my grandson! Otherwise, I’ll have my son divorce you." Mrs. Qin pointed at Liu Lili, cursing.

"From the start, I disagreed with you marrying into our family, and you think you’re worthy of my son? You can’t even cook properly, and you’re just average-looking. My son must have been blind to fall for you. After marriage, you kept urging him to move out. My son is supposed to take care of us in our old age, he’s my most filial son. If it weren’t for you pushing him, would he have left us two old folks and moved out with you? You’re a jinx, a selfish scoundrel." Mrs. Qin publicly lambasted Liu Lili in front of everyone.

The parents dropping off their kids frowned upon hearing this. Though they didn’t know the details, publicly yelling and cursing at your daughter-in-law, humiliating her like that, surely she didn’t think it would make her look good?

It only made everyone think her family had poor manners, behaving like a shrew in public, degrading her daughter-in-law to nothing.

Fu Xiaoxiao gently supported Liu Lili, watching her with concern.

Liu Lili gave Fu Xiaoxiao a grateful smile, then took a deep breath; she’d kept it in for years, and today she had to let it all out. Having moved out of that suffocating home, she wouldn’t go back.

Liu Lili met Mrs. Qin’s gaze without flinching. "Mom, your ability to twist the truth is really something!"

"Your son is a grown man, does he need me to manipulate his decisions? It’s clearly you who’s been too controlling all these years, meddling in everything. I could hardly breathe at home. I wanted to move out, and your son, unwilling to leave me and our son behind, decided to go too! You say I don’t deserve him, but wasn’t he the one who persistently pursued me? As for the cooking, your son never lifted a finger in the kitchen. I’ve been the one managing it all these years, maybe not perfectly, but I’ve put in the work, haven’t I? And now it’s my fault? If you have the nerve, let your son divorce me, I’ll leave with the kid, sparing you the sight of my face you loathe so much, disrupting your life! After we divorce, you can do whatever you please!"

Liu Lili’s words drew everyone’s attention onto her.

"I, Liu Lili, have been married into the Qin family for years. I may not have treated you like my biological mom, but I at least treated you well, didn’t I? Bought you clothes, helped massage you, tended to your feet, what haven’t I done? When I married in, I wanted to treat you like my mom, but you! You’ve been nitpicking, disapproving of everything I do, wearing down my enthusiasm bit by bit. People have hearts of flesh; how can you be so heartless as to obliterate all my efforts with just one sentence?"
