The 99th Divorce - Chapter 1094

Chapter 1094: Did You Think You Could Be Comparable to Manting?

Jiao Ziqing was extremely discourteous in her speech. Each and every word displayed the disgust she had for Yu Lili.

Yu Lili checked her temper. She had reached the end of her patience and spoke up, “Auntie…”

“Who’s your Auntie? Did your mother never teach you to address people properly? Call me Mrs. Ou!” Jiao Ziqing’s words were harsh.

Ou Ming’s scowl deepened when he heard his mother’s words, and he barked out, “Mom…”

Jiao Ziqing did not give Ou Ming a chance to speak at all and cut him off mid-sentence. With her eyes fixated on Yu Lili and her voice tart, she declared, “Before Manting became my future daughter-in-law, she addressed me as ‘Auntie.’ Did you think you could ever be comparable to Manting?”

Obviously, in Jiao Ziqing’s eyes, she couldn’t!

Such humiliating words were clearly intended to scorn. These were the most degrading words that Yu Lili had ever heard in her life.

Even what Ou Ming had said previously couldn’t compare to the humiliating effect these words had on her.

Just when she was about to refute those statements, the voice belonging to the middle-aged man piped up. Whatever smile that was on Wen Fenglin’s face had long disappeared. “Xiao Jiao. You went overboard with your words. Regardless of what this lady did to obtain your ire, everyone should be of equal status. Classifying them this way is inappropriate, isn’t it?”

When Jiao Ziqing heard that, the memory of Wen Fenglin and her best friend then came to her mind subconsciously. She stopped her tirade and tried to explain herself embarrassedly. “Fenglin, I didn’t mean anything else. I just…”

“It doesn’t matter whether or not you meant anything else. Don’t you think it’s cruel for you to treat a child this way?” Wen Fenglin’s eyes displayed a moment of pain, and he continued, “This child looks much younger than your son. Xiao Jiao, regardless of what else you have to say, calm down before speaking.”

Because you have no idea… that what you just said could become a painful memory that would follow this child for the rest of her life. It even had the potential to evolve into a matter of life and death.

Jiao Ziqing saw the look on Wen Fenglin’s face and realized that she might have said the wrong thing. She reached her hand out in entreaty and said, “Fenglin…”

“Sit down. Discuss this calmly,” Wen Fenglin said. “I’ll get someone to make some tea.”

“That won’t be necessary, Fenglin…” But Wen Fenglin had already exited the lounge.

“That won’t be necessary, Mr. Wen.” Yu Lili shouted after him.

When Wen Fenglin heard Yu Lili’s voice, he stopped in his tracks and turned around.

Yu Lili continued, “I don’t think I have anything to say to Ou Ming’s mother.” As she spoke, she looked Jiao Ziqing right in the eye. “Auntie, to me, other than your identity as Ou Ming’s mother, there is nothing respectable about you at all.”

Her voice was sonorous, and as she looked at Jiao Ziqing, the anger in her words was delivered unflinchingly and without hesitation.

Jiao Ziqing laughed when she heard that. “What?”

Ou Ming was stunned, and he tried to stop Yu Lili. “What are you saying? Stop talking!”

Jiao Ziqing was a person who didn’t accept criticism easily. Even Ou Ming’s father did not dare to censure her at home. After all these years, Jiao Ziqing had become a little spoiled. On top of that, due to her rise in status, very few individuals dared to speak to her in such a manner.

Jiao Ziqing already had a load of opinions regarding Yu Lili. If that statement were to be repeated…

But when Jiao Ziqing saw Ou Ming’s action, she shouted in anger. “Let her speak!”
