2053: Big Regrets

Big Regrets

She thought regretfully about how if she had just treated Sze Lingyun better, she would have been able to extort a large sum of money from the Wu family if they ever found their lost-long daughter.0

The more she thought about it, the sadder she felt.

When she saw that there was so much money being offered on that missing person notice, she knew that Sze Lingyun's father was not any ordinary person.

However, she could not hand over Zhou Hua. After Zhou Hua died, Zhou Menglu's jealousy overcame her. She wanted to see the brat that her sister had birthed live an awful life, so she treated the child extremely harshly.

If her jealousy back then had not been so intense, she might have listened to her mother's advice and treated Sze Lingyun better, giving her a sense of familial love. Would the Wu family really have investigated the cause of Zhou Hua's death?

If they had not investigated, she could have just said that Zhou Hua was her younger sister. Then, she could have used Zhou Hua's name and the favor of raising Sze Lingyun well to extort a huge sum from the Wu family. The Wu family would likely not have had any issues with that! 

She regretted her actions a lot!

"Yunyun, are you going to let your father bully your mother like this? Despite everything, I'm still the one who went through such great difficulty raising you!" Sob sob sob!

"Zhou Menglu, you're despicable! You dare call yourself my mother in front of my father? Are you trying to take advantage of him? You're disgusting!" Sze Lingyun was appalled by Zhou Menglu's poor performance.

When Sze Lingyun found out that not only was Zhou Menglu not her mother, but it was also likely that Zhou Menglu and Zhou Mengjing were the culprits who caused her mother's death, the pain from the years of abuse that she had suffered when she was young all turned into seething hatred.

When Zhou Menglu heard Sze Lingyun's words, she was forced to agree and face her guilt. This was truly all her fault. She immediately nodded and responded, "Yunyun, it's Mom's fault. I didn't take good enough care of you when you were younger, and I always treated your brother so much better. I-if you still want the love of a mother, I-I wouldn't mind taking care of you alongside your father to give you a brand-new family."

Everyone watching from the sidelines almost vomited hearing Zhou Menglu's words.

Sze Lingyun was so angry that she was about to walk right up to Zhou Menglu and give her two slaps. However, she suddenly heard Wu Jingzhong order the prison guard, "Arrest Sze Junyan immediately and interrogate him regarding the hit-and-run incident. Go through the usual legal procedures."

"Yes."

Seeing the prison guard agree, Zhou Menglu suddenly straightened up and shouted, "No! No! I'll talk! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything! Don't touch my son! Don't touch my son!"

"Zhou Menglu, don't be so shameless. Answer my question immediately. Otherwise, you may soon get the news that your son has been sentenced to death," said Wu Jingzhong.

Then, Wu Jingzhong looked at Sze Lingyun and comforted her. "It's okay. Don't waste your anger on scum. It's not worth it. There are other ways to deal with them—like making their lives a living hell. If you try to beat them up, all you're doing is staining your hands with their grime. You won't get anything out of it. Daddy will seek justice for you and your mother. Leave it to me."

Sze Lingyun's heart warmed, and she nodded. "I'll listen to Daddy."

Zhou Menglu watched Sze Lingyun and Wu Jingzhong talking. Her eyes were red with envy.

She wanted to be Wu Jingzhong's woman. She wanted to be Sze Lingyun's mother now.

It was a pity that the b*tch Zhou Hua was the one who saved Wu Jingzhong back then.

"Speak!" Wu Jingzhong's doting gaze instantly turned cold when his gaze shifted back to Zhou Menglu.

"I-I don't even know what to say! We really didn't see the missing person notice!"
