Zhou Furong quivered with rage. In the past, her status could not compare to theirs. Now she had come to the capital and become a member of the Mo family. Why should she be afraid of them?

Zhou Furong’s face contorted with rage.

“Zhong Guangping, let me tell you once more. I’m now the Mo family’s young lady. You have no right to speak to me like that.”

Zhong Guangping snorted coldly. “The Mo family’s young lady? Just because you say so? My Zhong family has been in the capital for so many years, yet we’ve never heard that Old Master Mo has a younger sister.

“Besides, so what if your mother really is Old Master Mo’s younger sister? Is that a big deal? In Old Master Mo’s generation, only a few of the young masters are sons of the legal wife. There are no daughters. If your mother really is the Mo family’s daughter, then she is just a daughter of a concubine with little significance.

“You’ve been married for so many years, and you already have a child. Yet you still have the cheek to claim that you’re the Mo family’s young lady? Why? Does the Zhou family not want you anymore? Weren’t you very arrogant just now? Are you saying that your surname is Mo now?”

“You…”

Zhong Guangping was no pushover, especially when it came to Zhou Furong. She was bullying Zheng Lin. Since he personally witnessed it, he certainly would not let Zhou Furong off!

Zhou Furong was in a rage. What she loved most about Zhong Guangping was his aloof appearance. But it was also what she hated most about him.

What she loved was his competence and sense of responsibility. What she hated was that his protectiveness was not towards her, but towards the woman whom she hated the most.

She could not win an argument with Zhong Guangping, so Zhou Furong turned to Zheng Lin.

“Zheng Lin, I’m the Mo family’s young lady. The Zhong family cannot afford to insult the Mo family. For so many years, you have not only failed to give the Zhong family a son. You have even lost your only daughter. Because of you, Guangping doesn’t have a child at his age. What right do you have to remain with him? Haven’t you done him enough harm?”

Zheng Lin was rather pale.

Her husband was very good to her. Too good!

In this life, her greatest blessing was to have a husband like Zhong Guangping.

She also wanted many children. She wanted to give Zhong Guangping many children and please his parents. But she could not help it. Her health was damaged in giving birth to her daughter, and she never conceived again.

Then, her only darling daughter went missing.

Zheng Lin was panting with rage. “You… You…”

“What about me? Did I say anything false? You’re so useless you lost your daughter, and you don’t have the ability to have a son. You’re a jinx. You’re…”

“Shut up! Zhou Furong, are you addicted to meddling in other peoples’ affairs? I think you are not happy and can’t bear to see anyone else happy!”

Zheng Lin was a woman. For many years, she felt that she had wronged her husband, and she felt guilty. But Zhong Guangping was not so easily bullied.

“You yourself are so foolish and blind that you married that useless creature from the Sun family. You couldn’t have a son and the Sun family despises you, so you think that all women should share your fate? It’s your own fault that you were abused for so many years. You brought it on yourself. You’ve been ill-treated for so many years, but you, just like the others, think that you must have a son to carry on the family name. Serves you right!

“Why doesn’t that useless Sun Fugui beat you to death? Why should a jinx like you who can’t give birth to a son still live?”

“You…” Zhou Furong almost exploded with rage.

She could still pick a fight with Zheng Lin. If Zheng Lin had said this, it might not be so hard for her to accept.. But because the words had come from Zhong Guangping, she could not accept them.
