C4 Confrontation

"It's all right, Mom. I don't feel wronged at all," Yem Shiyun replied calmly.

Seeing that Yem Shiyun was so sensible, Zhou Jieqiong's heart ached for her even more. Ever since the day Yem Shiyun was carried here, she had been exceptionally obedient. No matter how Jiang Qingcheng bullied her, she acted as if nothing had happened.

Zhou Jieqiong let go of Yem Shiyun's hand, stood up and opened the lunchbox she had brought on the table.

The lunchbox was filled with pig's foot soup and porridge that she had personally cooked. Yem Shiyun had just woken up, so she could only eat some light food.

She picked up the bowl and spooned a spoonful of it into Yem Shiyun's mouth. Yem Shiyun quickly said, "Mom, I can do it myself."

Seeing that Yem Shiyun was so insistent, Zhou Jieqiong had no choice but to hand the bowl to Yem Shiyun.

Seeing Yem Shiyun eating the porridge, Zhou Jieqiong suddenly frowned and said, "Shiyun, I think you are good in every way except for being too thin. If this goes on, how are you going to give birth to Jiang Qingcheng's child?"

Yem Shiyun's face turned red and she almost choked.

"Mom, Jiang Qingcheng said the other day that he already has someone he wants to marry." Yem Shiyun had no appetite. She used a spoon to scoop up the porridge and played with it.

"What do you mean?" Zhou Jieqiong was so angry that her eyelids twitched, "What does that little brat know? You are the daughter-in-law that I have chosen after much difficulty, and he doesn't want to marry you just because he says so?"

" Besides, even if it's not you, you can't let that vixen outside take advantage of you! "Zhou Jieqiong cursed hatefully.

In Zhou Jieqiong's eyes, other than Yem Shiyun who was not a vixen, all the other women outside were!

Xia Shanshan, who was eavesdropping outside the door, clenched her teeth tightly, and her expression was extremely ugly.

Zhou Jieqiong kept calling her a vixen, wasn't she talking about her?

She liked Jiang Qingcheng in her heart, but the Jiang family's property also moved her.

Jiang Qingcheng was the only son in the Jiang family. As long as she could hold Jiang Qingcheng's heart, she did not believe that the Jiang family would give up their own son because of a bastard who came out of nowhere.

As long as she let Jiang Qingcheng fall out with her family, she did not believe that Zhou Jieqiong could still insist that Jiang Qingcheng marry a woman he did not love.

After making up her mind, the evil sneer on Xia Shanshan's face disappeared, and she returned to her original pitiful look.

She knocked on Yem Shiyun's door and whispered, "Shiyun, I'm sorry. I didn't know Jiang Qingcheng would come..."

Knocking on the door, Xia Shanshan pushed it open and pretended to be surprised when she saw Zhou Jieqiong sitting on the bed. Then, she pursed her lips and called out timidly, "Shiyun, Auntie Zhou, am I disturbing you?"

Hearing Xia Shanshan's sweet and greasy voice, Zhou Jieqiong couldn't help but frown. She glanced at Xia Shanshan and then asked, "If you know you're disturbing us, why aren't you getting lost? Besides, Shiyun, where did you get this sister?"

Yem Shiyun was carried from the orphanage, so she naturally did not have a sister.

When Xia Shanshan heard this, she felt a little awkward.

"Mom, this is Xia Shanshan, the girl Jiang Qingcheng likes," Yem Shiyun introduced.

Yem Shiyun did not say that Xia Shanshan was Jiang Qingcheng's girlfriend. She clearly denied their relationship.

Zhou Jieqiong looked at Xia Shanshan and realized that Zhou Jieqiong was looking at her. Xia Shanshan put on what she thought was her cutest smile.

Unexpectedly, after Zhou Jieqiong finished reading it, she said with a look of disdain, "What kind of taste does Jiang Qingcheng have? Is it my son?"

Zhou Jieqiong curled her lips in disgust.

The smile on Xia Shanshan's face instantly froze. Hearing Zhou Jieqiong's words, she didn't know whether she should laugh or not.

She subconsciously glanced at Yem Shiyun. She thought that Yem Shiyun would be very pleased with herself at this moment, but she didn't expect her to still be expressionless, as if she didn't care what happened.

Then, Zhou Jieqiong pulled Yem Shiyun and started chatting. The content of their conversation was nothing more than whether or not Yem Shiyun had taken a fancy to a bag when they were shopping last time. If she liked it, she would buy it for any amount of money.

Xia Shanshan was envious when she heard this. The Jiang family was indeed generous, but it wasn't to her.

These two people were obviously treating her like air. Xia Shanshan was even more unwilling to accept this, so she decided to go all out and directly knelt beside Zhou Jieqiong's legs.

She raised her small face, her eyes filled with tears. Anyone who saw this would feel heartache.

"Auntie Zhou, Brother Jiang Qingcheng and I really love each other. Please help us and let us be together, okay? I really can't live without him." Xia Shanshan raised her hand to wipe away her tears as she cried.

Of course, Xia Shanshan's performance was natural, and Zhou Jieqiong had also seen the wound on Xia Shanshan's wrist, but what did this wound have to do with her? What did it have to do with Jiang Qingcheng and Yem Shiyun?

Zhou Jieqiong's face instantly darkened. Just as she was about to flare up, she was pulled back by Yem Shiyun.

Yem Shiyun's face was as dark as water. She had been observing Xia Shanshan and noticed that she was indeed different from the other women. Jiang Qingcheng indeed loved her.

"Get up first. We'll talk when you get up." Yem Shiyun tried to smooth things over.

They were still in the hospital. If this matter really got out of hand, none of them would have any face left.

Xia Shanshan shook her head stubbornly and said, "If Aunt Zhou doesn't agree to my request, I won't get up and will kneel here."

Even though thousands of curses flew through Yem Shiyun's heart, the smile on her face was still generous and proper, and she was not moved by Xia Shanshan's words at all.

"If you want to kneel, then go elsewhere. Don't block my way!" Zhou Jieqiong said snappily.

Zhou Jieqiong felt that Xia Shanshan was more and more inferior.

At this time, Yem Shiyun sat up straight and said, "There are some things that I thought you would understand if I didn't say them. But now, it seems that I have overestimated you."

"You called me Shiyun and Mom and Auntie. You must have left yourself some leeway." Yem Shiyun smiled and looked at Xia Shanshan.

Then the smile on Yem Shiyun's face disappeared and she said seriously, "Your little tricks can be used on others or on Jiang Qingcheng, but not on me. After all, we are all women. Women are the best at judging whores."

After saying these words, the smile returned to Yem Shiyun's face. The demeanor of the mistress of the house was vividly displayed on her.

"You!" Seeing that Yem Shiyun was mocking her, Xia Shanshan's expression turned ugly, but in front of Zhou Jieqiong, she couldn't scold anyone, so she was speechless.

She noticed that although Yem Shiyun didn't show it on her face, her mouth was very sharp, and in just a few words, she had been disparaged as worthless.

Just as Xia Shanshan was about to say something to save her image, she heard a man's unhappy voice from behind her.

"Yem Shiyun, when did you learn to be so sharp-tongued?" Jiang Qingcheng asked.

When Zhou Jieqiong saw Jiang Qingcheng, she was so angry that her teeth itched, "Little bastard, your wife is in the hospital, and you only came to see her now?"

When she saw that Jiang Qingcheng was holding nothing in his hand, she immediately understood that if she hadn't come, Yem Shiyun wouldn't have had a mouthful of hot food.

This time, Jiang Qingcheng did not beg for mercy from Zhou Jieqiong as usual. With a cold expression, he helped Xia Shanshan up from kneeling beside Zhou Jieqiong's legs.

Xia Shanshan felt wronged by Yem Shiyun. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she still whispered, "Brother Jiang Qingcheng, don't do business with Auntie Zhou."

Hearing Xia Shanshan's words, Zhou Jieqiong shouted sternly, "Jiang Qingcheng!"

Jiang Qingcheng did not say anything. He raised his head and looked at Zhou Jieqiong, his mother, and...

The silent woman.

"Mom, since you don't like Shanshan, we'll move out. We won't be in your sight anymore," Jiang Qingcheng said calmly.

Xia Shanshan became anxious when she heard Jiang Qingcheng's words. She stopped crying and pulled Jiang Qingcheng's sleeve. "Brother Jiang Qingcheng, don't be angry with Aunt Zhou!"

Jiang Qingcheng smiled gently at Xia Shanshan. His Shanshan had always been so kind, so he naturally did not want Zhou Jieqiong and Yem Shiyun to bully her together.

"Unfilial son! Did I raise you to anger me to death? Jiang Qingcheng, you are really a bastard!" Zhou Jieqiong was so angry that she cursed.

Jiang Qingcheng was unmoved. His gaze was still glued to Xia Shanshan, but he said to Zhou Jieqiong, "If you want me to move back in, that's fine, but you have to drive Yem Shiyun away and agree for me to marry Xia Shanshan."

Yem Shiyun was stunned. Did he hate her that much?

"Impossible!" Zhou Jieqiong immediately rejected.

"In that case, we have nothing else to say. Jiang family, there is no need for me to go back!" Jiang Qingcheng helped Xia Shanshan up and dragged her out of the ward.

Zhou Jieqiong stood up and pointed at their backs as if she had forgotten her identity.

After cursing for a while, Zhou Jieqiong also felt that it was futile, so she shut her mouth and sat back down beside Yem Shiyun.

"Shiyun, don't worry. Mom will definitely not listen to that bastard Jiang Qingcheng. He was just bewitched by that little vixen. Look at her pretending to be pitiful. Disgusting!" Zhou Jieqiong comforted her.

"Shiyun, I only recognize you as my daughter-in-law. Happiness is something you have to fight for yourself. You won't let me down. You will bring Jiang Qingcheng back, won't you?" Zhou Jieqiong asked carefully.

Yem Shiyun had never rejected Zhou Jieqiong, and this time was no exception.
