Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife - Chapter 227
Chapter 227: How Dare You Slap Me, Mu Qiqi!
Over the past few days, Shen Ruoyi had gone to see Lin Mu’an a few times. However, she was indirectly rejected by him every time she went to him.
Shen Ruoyi had a vague feeling that something was not right. Although half-heartedly, Lin Mu’an would still meet her for the first few times. But now, he was even too lazy to answer her calls or reply to her messages. Shen Ruoyi should understand what he meant by now even if she was stupid. But the Lin family and the Shen family were close friends and it was the elders that had made the arrangement. Even if Lin Mu’an was not satisfied with her, he should not have made it look like she was the one who was clinging onto him.
He should not have embarrassed her like this.
Shen Ruoyi was irritated and hired a man to follow Lin Mu’an. She discovered that he was very close with a woman lately. And that very woman was Mu Qiqi’s best friend. She was the young lady of the Lu family, Lu Qianqian!
Shen Ruoyi did not think much and went straight to Grandpa Shen. “Grandpa, you seem to support me to get together with Young Master Lin, but the truth is, you do not want to help me, do you?”
“Shen Ruoyi, is this the way you talk to your elders?” Huang Yu questioned Shen Ruoyi immediately. “You are always a young lady with good manners. But where are your manners now?”
“Second Aunt, Grandpa supports me to get together with Young Master Lin. But do you know that Young Master Lin has been ignoring me these days? Do you know who he is with lately? He is with Mu Qiqi’s best friend, Lu Qianqian, the one who had a miscarriage at eighteen!”
Grandpa Shen frowned after hearing this.
“You must feel embarrassed, right? I am, too! I am the young lady of the Shen family. Am I not good enough as compared to that cheap woman? Moreover, Lu Qianqian is Mu Qiqi’s best friend. Might I assume that it was Mu Qiqi who asked her friend to seduce Lin Mu’an?”
“Father, Qiqi is not someone like that.” Huang Yu backed Mu Qiqi up.
“Huang Yu, ask Qiqi to come here now.”
Grandpa Shen did not make up his mind yet. He was not aware of this before, so he would not side with anyone for now.
When Mu Qiqi received the phone call, she felt like trouble was coming. So, she hurriedly went to Shen Mansion.
When she stepped into the living room, all the elders were there. Cen Suyun and her daughter were crying. And Huang Yu looked irritated.
“Mu Qiqi, don’t you think that Ruoyi has had enough misfortune for you to do this to her?” Before Grandpa Shen could even speak, Cen Suyun shouted and blamed Mu Qiqi. Of course, Mu Qiqi was used to it already.
“Is it all my fault every time you and your family face a problem?” Mu Qiqi asked in return.
“Mu Qiqi, then tell me. Do you know about the relationship between Lin Mu’an and Lu Qianqian?”
“What’s their relationship?” Mu Qiqi asked. Lu Qianqian and Lin Mu’an were not at all in a scandalous relationship that they had imagined.
“Then do you know that Grandpa wants to matchmake me with Lin Mu’an?”
“When did Grandpa tell me about this?” Mu Qiqi asked the same thing back.
“Look at you! Pretending to be innocent and not know anything. You are Lu Qianqian’s best friend. Do you dare to say that you do not know she is with Lin Mu’an?”
“Grandpa, I was rejected by Lin Mu’an the past few days every time I asked him out. He pretended to be very busy and even ignored me. But on the other hand, he was always with Lu Qianqian. How would I not suspect Mu Qiqi?”
“Nonsense! You should ask the Lu family if Lin Mu’an is close to Lu Qianqian. Why do you come to me instead?” Mu Qiqi shouted angrily. “Lu Qianqian is my best friend. But how are you so sure that I would now about this?”
“Grandpa, you haven’t told me that you want to matchmake Shen Ruoyi with Lin Mu’an, have you?”
Grandpa Shen nodded. He hadn’t told Mu Qiqi about this.
But he could not say anything now because he felt unwell. Nobody seemed to notice.
“Okay, even if you do not know about this, then you should know about Grandpa’s plan now. As a member of the Shen family, shouldn’t you help your family and tell your friend to step aside? Shouldn’t you tell her not to mess up with somebody else’s matter?”
“First thing, I do not think that this is a contribution to the family. It was you who shamelessly went into somebody’s office and embarrassed yourself. Why must everyone help you to cover up your wrongdoing? Why must the other person step aside for you to pursue your happiness? Moreover, Qianqian is the young lady of the Lu family. She is no less than you.”
“But she is shameless enough to abort a baby at eighteen!”
“What about you? You went into a man’s office and was caught red-handed. Was that any better?”
Grandpa Shen was very angry upon seeing the two cousins arguing. “Shut up, you two! What kind of sisters are you quarreling like this?”
“Grandpa, I do not know what I have to do with this and what makes you call me here late at night. If the other party does not like Sister, you should find out the cause from her, not ask me for the reason instead. The Lin family is not stupid, of course they know how to tell right and wrong.”
“It is you who ruined this. Maybe, you have even told the Lin family about what happened in the Sheng family.”
“It looks like you want to blame me for this already no matter what.” Mu Qiqi stopped arguing after seeing that Shen Ruoyi unwilling to believe her. No matter how hard she explained, the mother and the daughter would still think that it was her.
“Do you dare say that it has nothing to do with you?”
“Alright, I admit it. It was me. I let Lin Mu’an ignore you. I make my best friend seduce Lin Mu’an. I destroyed any chance you have with him. Are you satisfied with what I say now?”
“Grandpa, she admitted it.” Shen Ruoyi pointed her finger at Mu Qiqi and yelled pitifully. “Grandpa…”
“Yes, I admitted it. Not only this time, I will do the same in the future. I will tell the whole world that you are someone that the Sheng family does not want.”
“I dare you!” Cen Suyun threatened Mu Qiqi. “Bastard child.”
Slap!
It was loud. Nobody expected that Mu Qiqi would slap Cen Suyun. “Say it again if you dare. Or I will spread gossip about your daughter in the whole of Jianchuan. Trust me I will.”
“How dare you slap me, Mu Qiqi!”
“If you two bully me again like this next time, I will slap you again.” Mu Qiqi shouted. “You look down on me because my father is sick and I did not grow up in the Shen family, right? Then let me tell you this. I, Mu Qiqi will not yield to you, ever.”
Cen Suyun was very angry. She wanted to slap Mu Qiqi. But, before she could, Shen Lin grabbed her hand. “Third Aunt, you cannot slap her.”
“Grandpa, I know you want to treat us fairly. You are not just my grandfather. You are also the head of the family. But I have told you that I will not make compromises for the sake of this family. I will only care for the people who really care about me. I just want to ask, who do you believe in? Shen Ruoyi or me?”
