Song Siting raised her gaze to look at Dongfang Shuman before replying softly—
“Much better. Thank you for your concern, Mother. It’s just that I really don’t know what Mother means.”
When Song Siting said this, her eyes darkened slightly. She thought to herself, this Dongfang Shuman is probably here to scold me as well, right?
Now that Dongfang Gan was not home, it was time for them to have a good chat.
“You know what you’re doing. There’s no need to hide it. You, Song Siting, have been married to our Dongfang family for decades. You should know my character. I’m afraid you’ve labeled me as an ‘evil mother-in-law’ in your books, right?”
Dongfang Shuman glanced at Song Siting disdainfully, her tone somewhat cold.
“I didn’t think of it that way.” Song Siting replied.
After thinking for a moment, she continued, “I know that Mother has never been satisfied with me. I’m afraid that it’s because I didn’t do well enough, that’s why…”
“You also have this self-awareness. I’m just afraid that this self-awareness of yours is just a formality. I don’t deny that you do make me very dissatisfied. You don’t have the qualifications to be the daughter-in-law of the Dongfang family and the wife of Ah Gan. I know that you will be very dissatisfied and unhappy after hearing these words, but this is the truth.”
Dongfang Shuman said coldly. She put down the teacup in her hand, and her elite gaze quietly locked onto Song Siting’s somewhat gloomy face.
“Mother’s prejudice against me is too deep, and I have nothing to say. Since you think so of me, there’s no point in me defending myself.”
Song Siting was naturally not convinced. She had worked hard step by step until now, and was also a famous figure in the legal world. She was not necessarily inferior to Dongfang Gan. She did not understand why the old lady was fixated on her background? Had she not put in a lot of effort all these years?
How could she, Song Siting, let the Dongfang family be humiliated because of her? As the chief legal advisor of the Dongfang Group, she had also done a lot for the Dongfang Group. Even if she had not contributed much, she had put in a lot of hard work. However, it seemed that no matter how hard she, Song Siting, worked, Dongfang Shuman was biased against her.
As soon as Song Siting’s words fell, Dongfang Shuman merely glanced at her indifferently before saying, “Do you feel that you have been wronged? Do you feel that you have already worked very hard? Do you also feel that your brilliance is enough to match up to Ah Gan?”
Dongfang Shuman was an extremely intelligent person. Naturally, she was able to capture the thoughts in Song Siting’s heart with a single glance. When she spoke at this moment, there was a deep glint in her eyes, causing Song Siting’s heart to feel uneasy.
Song Siting was silent. She did not respond to Dongfang Shuman.
“I do not deny your personal success. However, you keep saying that you care about Ah Gan and Liuyun. I will ask you what you have done for them all these years? Other than competing in your career, I don’t see you doing anything for them either. Not only did you not become their powerful assistant, you even caused endless trouble for them to handle for you and take the blame for you. Take this incident as an example, isn’t that the case?”
Dongfang Shuman was a person who spoke very straightforwardly and was used to directly hitting the nail on the head. This was because she knew very well that for a prideful person like Song Siting, she might not be able to listen even if you beat around the bush with her. She just needed to put the matter in the open.
As expected, Song Siting’s expression did not look too good after Dongfang Shuman’s words fell.
“You don’t have a sense of community at all. You only think about yourself. Do you think that the Dongfang family needs a daughter-in-law with a halo to glorify the family? You’re wrong! You’ve never realized this. What we need is a good wife, a daughter-in-law who can help support the family. We won’t mind her background for such a daughter-in-law. As for you, you only think about yourself! You think you’re so high and mighty, but in my eyes, you’re not even as good as the daughter-in-law of the Eldest Brother and Second Brother. You’re not even as good as a finger!”
Dongfang Shuman’s tone became colder and harsher, “I, Dongfang Shuman, don’t like people like you who think they’re so high and mighty but don’t do anything practical. I don’t care what happened to the Lin family back then. As the daughter-in-law of the Dongfang family, you shouldn’t have done that. On the surface, everyone is still on the same side, but you took the initiative to help the other party win this lawsuit. Later on, they treated Ah Gan and Liuyun the same way. Don’t you understand? Also, how many people who have a deep relationship with the Dongfang family have cut off all ties with the Dongfang family because of you?”
Whenever Dongfang Shuman talked about these things, she would feel a wave of frustration in her heart. She was even more disappointed and disgusted with Song Siting. If it was not for the fact that she was still her daughter-in-law, she would never have allowed her to continue being so arrogant.
“Don’t tell me that for the sake of some family, there’s no need to talk about right and wrong? I absolutely can’t do this!”
On this point, Song Siting disapproved of Dongfang Shuman very much.
“So you personally went into battle to talk about right and wrong? Talk about right and wrong, so you used the name of the Dongfang family to spread rumors everywhere? Song Siting, based on your thoughts, it’s impossible for you to become a qualified mistress of the Dongfang family in your lifetime! With someone like you, my Dongfang family, the Dongfang Group is not far from being destroyed! You think it’s straightforward? Have you thought about Ah Gan and Liuyun? How many enemies have you made because of these stupid things all these years? How can our Dongfang family have such a foolish daughter-in-law like you? Eldest Brother and Second Brother’s daughter-in-law both know how to protect the family and the interests of the family. Only you would abandon the family and abandon your husband and daughter!”
Dongfang Shuman could not control her anger with Song Siting’s attitude, “You probably don’t know who caused Ah Gan’s injury in Myanmar, right? Unfortunately, it was one of the sons of the defendant who was defeated by you. The Dongfang family is famous. It’s already not easy for us to be standing like this. It’s best if we don’t offend others. Liuyun can’t stand your way of doing things either. Shouldn’t you reflect on yourself?”
Dongfang Shuman’s cold and stern voice refuted Song Siting’s expression. Although she was a little unconvinced, she did not dare to say anything. Dongfang Shuman’s face was now dark with anger.
“There are many ways to uphold justice, but it shouldn’t be based on such a sacrifice. I, Dongfang Shuman, am doing this for the sake of the entire Dongfang family. You can think that I am not a good person, but I will tell you very clearly, whoever dares to touch the Dongfang Group, whoever dares to touch my child, will be making things difficult for me! I will definitely not let them off.”
“Think about it carefully. I have nothing more to say. There is no point in saying more. You are not a qualified wife, nor are you a qualified mother. You’re not qualified enough for me to accept you.”
