312: The Dogs Bit Each Other III

The Dogs Bit Each Other III

Tan Shuangshuang could see a familiar person from the corners of her eyes. There was a flash of light in her eyes.2

"Lady Liu." She smiled slightly and walked toward Lady Liu slowly. She came to stand in front of her and used a voice which could only be heard by the two of them. "Your son cannot live without me now. I must be the young lady in this family."

"How dare you!"

Slap!

Lady Liu had raised her hand and slapped Tan Shuangshuang hard on her cheek.

Soon, Tan Shuangshuang's face was swollen and there were tears in her threatening eyes. She looked pitiful.

"Aunt, I'll leave if you don't like me. But, why did you humiliate me? I'll pack up my things and leave now. It's better than being humiliated by you."

Lady Liu was stunned. She did not understand why Tan Shuangshuang acted in such a way.

Lady Liu's facial expression changed when she heard an angry voice from behind her. 

"Mom, what are you doing?"

Liu Yuchen walked past Lady Liu and grabbed onto Tan Shuangshuang's hand. He seemed to be in great pain. He turned to look at Lady Liu. "You're my mother who has raised and taken care of me. I'll always be on your side no matter what happens. But, Shuangshuang has sacrificed a lot for me. It's fine if you bully her sometime. But, why did you hit her?"

He did not understand why the relationship between his mother and Shuangshuang had gone sour when they were on intimate terms before. 

'What has gone wrong?'

Lady Liu was so frustrated that she pointed her finger at Liu Yuchen and could not utter a word.

"Are you planning to take her side?"

"Mother!" There was bitterness in Liu Yuchen's voice. "Can't you respect her just for my sake?"

Lady Liu could not help but laugh out loud. There was anger in her laughter. "Fine, Liu Yuchen. I'll tell you now. There's only one of us who can live in the Liu family. It's either her or me. I'll never admit that she's my daughter-in-law even if you want to marry her as a concubine! You must go to the princess's manor now and capture Feng Ruqing's heart again."

Liu Yuchen's body froze after hearing this. There was an image of a beautiful person in his mind. The bitterness in his heart started to spread.

'I'm afraid that there's no more possibility between us.'

"Mom, do you think that I'm a suitable match for Feng Ruqing now?"

Tan Shuangshuang's eyes widened. It was unbelievable. She looked at Liu Yuchen.

Tan Shuangshuang might get angry if Liu Yuchen promised to go and pursue Feng Ruqing again. She might hate him and there might be some unreconciled emotions. But, it was not like that. Tan Shuangshuang was in despair.

It was because Liu Yuchen said that he was no longer a suitable match for Feng Ruqing.

Liu Yuchen was a man Tan Shuangshuang could not let go of. Now, he had said that he was not a suitable match for the woman whom he had humiliated before.

'Hmm… He said that he was not a match for her…'

Tan Shuangshuang was in deep pain and grief. She lowered her eyes and tried to hide the despair in her eyes.

"What are you talking about?" Lady Liu was infuriated. 

"Feng Ruqing was your wife no matter what. She's a woman who has gone through a divorce. How is she not a match for you? Now, you tell me. Is it because of this vixen that you're not going to pursue Feng Ruqing? Is it because of her?"

Lady Liu pointed at Tan Shuangshuang angrily. She gritted her teeth and asked Liu Yuchen.

'This vixen! If she knows any better, she should have left Liu Manor by now and not linger here anymore.'

"Mother! That's enough!" Liu Yuchen was calmer now. He scolded coldly, "I'll take care of my own business. Don't you ever mess with Shuangshuang again. This is what I owe her."

"You…" Lady Liu looked at Tan Shuangshuang. Tan Shuangshuang was hiding behind Liu Yuchen. Lady Liu was staring daggers at her. She stared really hard at Tan Shuangshuang. "I stand by my decision. Only one of us can live here. Tan Shuangshuang, I'll give you a few days. You better leave by then. If not, I'll definitely do something!"
