Chapter 116: Beaten Up

After school, Ning Dong returned to the house with his head lowered.

When Su Tong saw her son, she could tell something was amiss. Hence, she pulled her son over and asked, “What’s wrong, son?”

Ning Dong tried his best to avoid Su Tong’s probing gaze and shook her hand off impatiently.

At this time, Su Tong finally saw the bruise near her son’s lips. She asked in shock, “What happened? Who did you fight with?”

Ning Dong pushed his mother’s hand that was on his cheek away before he said irritably, “No one. I’m to blame for this.”

“Nonsense! How’s that possible? Tell me who did it? I won’t let him off!” Su Tong said, clearly distressed.

Ning Dong smiled bitterly. “I’ve already said I’m to blame. After all, I’m the devil who caused a pregnant woman to miscarry.”

Su Tong was stunned into silence; she raised her hand and covered her mouth in shock. When she finally found her voice again, she asked, “Dongdong, what nonsense are you talking about?”

Ning Dong looked at Su Tong indifferently as he asked, “Mother, what can we do to atone for our sins?”

Su Tong’s tears streamed down her face immediately. She reached out and hit her son’s arm as she said, “Nonsense! You’re speaking nonsense! What sins do we have to atone for? We’ve not sinned! We’ve not sinned!”

Ning Dong retreated two steps before he raised his face, trying to prevent his tears from falling. “We’ve not sinned? Mother, there’s a ghost of a child here who’s crying day and night saying that I killed him and that he wants me to return his life to him.”

Su Tong reached out and touched Ning Dong’s forehead with an uncertain expression on her face upon hearing Ning Dong’s words.

Ning Dong avoided Su Tong’s hand and made his way to the stairs. He said without looking at Su Tong, “There are so many men in the world; why did you have to choose a married man? Why did you put me in such an embarrassing situation?” A hint of despair could be heard in his voice when he spoke.

Su Tong hurriedly chased after her son. She grabbed her son’s sleeve and asked, “Dongdong, tell me what’s wrong. What happened?”

Ning Dong stood on the stairs and fiercely shook Su Tong’s hand off before he said frostily, “Everyone now knows that you were a mistress who forced the former Madam of the Ning family out and took over the position of the Madam of the Ning family. They say that I, the illegitimate child, not only caused the miscarriage of the rightful Madam of the Ning family, resulting in the loss of a Young Master of the Ning family, but I also stole the position that originally belonged to the Eldest Young Miss of the Ning family and became the heir of the Ning family!”

Ning Dong turned away as he said without looking back at his mother, “Let me ask you one thing: when has he ever treated me like his heir? He pushed all the blame to us to cover up his sin of abandoning his wife and daughter. Look at the kind of man you love! Is he worthy?”

Su Tong fell limply to the ground; she had no strength to get up. She could only sit on the ground and cry. Naturally, she understood her son’s words, but what could she do? This was all clearly planned by Ning Zhe; he did even spare his innocent son! In order to get his daughter to return to the family, he spared no efforts at all.

Grim determination settled in Su Tong’s heart as she slowly rose to her feet like that year when she rose to her feet when she was still a mistress begging to be accepted into the Ning family. Now that she was the Madam of the Ning family, she would not let anyone snatch the position away from her. She would not let Ning Zhe get what he wanted! Her son was the heir of the Ning family, and she would not let anyone change that! She thought to herself as she gritted her teeth, ‘Ning Xia, let’s fight to the death then!’

…

Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the Ye family was gloomy as well.

Ye Xin had already broken everything that could be broken in the house. Her eyes were red and swollen as she sulked in the living room.

‘How can Song Ning be the Eldest Young Miss of the Ning family?! Why is the heavens being so unfair to me?’

Ye Xin felt as though Song Ning was her natural enemy. She had debuted under the title of ‘Little Ning Xia’, causing her to live in Song Ning’s shadow. Then, Song Ning snatched Mu Chen away from her. Now, it was even revealed that Song Ning’s background was not inferior to hers!

‘What else does she want? How can I let someone like her suppress me! I have to crush her! Whether it’s love or career, I won’t let her get what she wants!’

Meanwhile, Gao Wen’s heart was aching when she looked at her daughter. She paced up and down, constantly asking where Ye Chen was and why he was not back yet. She thought to herself indignantly, “All the men in this family are really useless! My daughter is being bullied to this extent, and yet, my husband and my son don’t even care!”

Gao Wen felt as though she was going to be angered to death whenever she thought about this matter.
