Su Lenghan frowned and said, “Meng Xinyan, don’t even talk about the past. Compared to your past self, do you have any idea how different you are right now? Can you even tell? I don’t even think that you’re the same person. You can take a look in the mirror and see for yourself.”
“Wow, Su Lenghan, now that you have a daughter, you’re abandoning me?”
“Meng Xinyan, I gave you so much money. What did you spend the money on? Tell me! No matter how much I give you and how much I care, you’ll only squander it away.”
Meng Xinyan clenched her teeth and answered in a high-pitched voice, “Your Su family is loaded, but you only gave me a pittance. You think it’s too much? Su Lenghan, you’re so shameless!”
Su Lenghan didn’t want to argue with Meng Xinyan anymore. He had been softhearted and had given in multiple times. When it came to her, he was at his wits’ end. He really didn’t know what to do with her anymore.
At the moment, his only priority is his daughter. Naturally, he was worried about her safety, so he turned to Xie Liu and said, “Please get her out of here!”
Xie Liu nodded and stepped forward to drag Meng Xinyan out.
Meng Xinyan began to scream, “Su Lenghan, you can’t do this to me! You can’t do this to me! I am the child’s mother. When she grows up, she’ll definitely hate you. She’ll find out how you treated her mother. Su Lenghan, you’re so cruel! I hate you! You’re so heartless!”
The vein on Su Lenghan’s forehead throbbed continuously. Facing Meng Xinyan’s rage and vitriol, he really didn’t know what to say.
When Meng Xinyan was finally taken out of the room, Su Lenghan sat on a chair, feeling helpless and worn out. His mind was in a mess, and he didn’t know what to do.
Seeing that Meng Xinyan had left, Xie Limo carried Yangyang back into the room. He said to Su Lenghan, “Are you okay? Stay strong and keep your head up. Don’t let a woman mess up your life. You still have a daughter.”
Su Lenghan raised his head and looked at Yangyang. After taking her from Xie Limo’s arms, his mood calmed down. After a while, he thanked Xie Limo and left.
Seeing Su Lenghan’s lonely and pitiful back, Xie Limo sighed softly. He couldn’t help Su Lenghan in any way and only hoped that he could manage his life well.
As for inviting the Meng family to the business meeting, he left this task to Yun Bixue.
…
Yun Bixue and Meng Xintong were sitting in a café. Before Yun Bixue could say anything, Meng Xintong smiled and said, “I know that the much-talked-about business meeting was arranged by you and Young Master Xie. My Meng family must join in.”
Yun Bixue raised her brows and smiled. She took the invitation card out and waved it in front of Meng Xintong. “Here it is. I came here to give you this. I’ll treat you to a cup of coffee too.”
Meng Xintong took the invitation and looked at it. She said happily, “Sure, I’ll accept Miss Yun’s treat this time around.”
Yun Bixue looked around her and said to Meng Xintong, “Do you still remember when we first met? You held yourself back in the past and didn’t dare to step out of the house. And if you did, you’d wear a cap so that no one will recognize you.”
Hearing Yun Bixue talk about the past, Meng Xintong felt rather emotional. She laughed and said, “Even I couldn’t believe that I was like that. I’ve really changed. The students who had bullied me back then even tried to suck up to me. Of course, I won’t say much to them, but I want to help those friends who had been genuinely nice to me.”
The two of them chatted freely, just like ordinary friends.
“Yes, you can really see a person’s true colors, especially during your hardships. It’s great that you have a reliable group of people to support you. Have you visited Zhou Pingyu in Zi Bei City recently?”
Meng Xintong shook her head. After sipping her coffee, she answered, “Him? He’s swamped right now. I don’t even know what he’s occupied with. He even forgot to call me.”
Yun Bixue teased, “Look at how sweet you’re smiling. Do you really care about a phone call?”
