The stepmother control group counterattacked with cubs in the era

"Qingqing doesn't have many friends around her. It's rare for her to get along with you. I think you should know her preferences better, otherwise she wouldn't bother you specially."

In the car, Mother Zhong held Shen Mingzhu's hand with a smile.

Although Zhongmu is nearly fifty years old, she looks like she is in her early thirties when well cared for, and her hands are smooth and delicate.

However, Shen Mingzhu was not used to such intimacy, so she pulled her hand back by untying her scarf.

Mother Zhong’s smile did not change, “What do you want to eat? Is Cantonese food okay? A new Cantonese restaurant has opened in Liyuan, and the roast goose is very good.”

"it is good."

……

When they arrived at Liyuan, Shen Mingzhu called home while using the bathroom, told the hotel's address, and asked Pei Yang to pick her up around eight o'clock.

After that, she called Zhong Qing's office.

No one answered. At this point, Zhong Qing was probably off work.

She called Zhong's house again.

The call was answered by Zhong Qing's sister Zhong Yin. Knowing that Zhong Qing had not returned home yet, Shen Mingzhu left their passwords and phone numbers and asked Zhong Yin to convey them to Zhong Qing.

Although it was not clear that Mother Zhong had any ill intentions towards her, she always felt an indescribable feeling of discomfort in her heart.

When Shen Mingzhu returned to the box, a dazzling array of dishes and an open bottle of red wine were already placed on the table.

"I'm back, sit down now."

Zhong Mu greeted her with a smile.

Shen Mingzhu was a little surprised, "Mrs. Zhong, are there any other guests?"

"Just the two of us."

"Then you ordered too many dishes, and I don't drink."

"I heard that you also opened a restaurant. I want to order more of the special dishes in the store and try more other flavors. It may be helpful to you. Let's drink as much as we want. I don't have a good drinking capacity, so I don't dare to drink more."

While she was talking, Zhong Mu had already enthusiastically poured the wine for her.

But I didn’t pour much, just two small mouthfuls.

This shouldn't make anyone drunk, so Shen Mingzhu drank the red wine in the glass happily.

The food tasted really good, and the two of them had a great time chatting while eating.

……

Zhong Qing is visiting an elder who is recovering from a serious illness.

The gray-haired old lady held her hand and babbled, "...You are not young anymore. It is important to get married as soon as possible and have children. For this woman, getting married and having children is the top priority. With that, Only when a child is close to you can you have support and stability in this life..."

Zhong Qing subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand.

The old man was very strong and it hurt when his nails pinched the back of her hand.

She didn't know whether she moved too much or was scratched by the old man's nails. The moment she pulled her hand back, the bracelet on the hand bowl suddenly broke.

Seeing the amethyst beads dancing all over the floor, Zhong Qing felt inexplicably uneasy.

This bracelet was Shen Mingzhu's birthday gift to her last year.

She doesn't sleep well, and amethyst has a calming effect.

Zhong Qing borrowed the phone at her elder's home and called Pei's house.

When she learned that Shen Mingzhu was not at home but eating out with her mother, Zhong Qing suddenly understood why Zhong's mother had arranged for her to visit an unfamiliar elder alone.

……

"Mrs. Pei? Are you drunk?"

After calling several times and patting his shoulder, Shen Mingzhu didn't wake up. Chu Yuqing got up and called the waiter.

"She drank too much. Please help me help her go to the guest room upstairs to rest."

"Okay, Mrs. Zhong."

After the waiter put Shen Mingzhu on the bed, Chu Yuqing generously tipped her 20 yuan.

"She needs to rest and not let anyone disturb her."

The waiter nodded hurriedly, took the tip and left happily.

After staring at Shen Mingzhu on the bed for a long time, Chu Yuqing turned and left.Chu Yuqing did not leave, but went to the front hall to make a phone call, and then sat in the lounge area of ​​the front hall to wait.

Ten minutes later, a dark blue Volga parked at the gate of Liyuan.

Chu Yuqing stood up and went out, handing over the key, "I'm in room 510."

Zhong Jiping patted her shoulder with satisfaction, "Thank you for your hard work."

Chu Yuqing smiled and said, "Go up, I'll wait for you below."

Zhong Jiping said nothing more and walked into Liyuan. It was easy to see from his back that he was a little anxious.

Chu Yuqing touched the shoulder that had been patted by her husband, her expression showing sweetness and nostalgia.

She couldn't remember how long it had been since her husband had touched her.

Ever since she had a double mastectomy.

……

Zhong Jiping came to the fifth floor, found room 510, inserted the key into the keyhole and opened the door.

Click.

The door behind him also opened at the same time.

"Dr. Zhong, what a coincidence. Are you here to rest?"

"I made an appointment with someone to have dinner downstairs. He has something to do and will arrive late, so I'll come up and rest first."

"I see, I happen to be going down to eat, how about we eat first?"

"No, next time."

……

Ten minutes after Zhong Jiping stepped into Liyuan, Zhong Qing also rushed over.

In the private room, Chu Yuqing stood alone in front of the window, holding a wine glass in his hand and slowly tasting it.

Hearing the sound of the door opening behind her, she turned around and was a little surprised to see the person coming in.

Zhong Qing is no longer as elegant and calm as before, her expression is panicked, her hair is scattered behind her head, and her eyes are full of anxiety and panic.

She glanced around the box and didn't see Shen Mingzhu, so she immediately rushed to Chu Yuqing.

"Where is Pearl Man? Where is she?!"

Chu Yuqing looked at her calmly, "Don't you want to get rid of your dad and the Zhong family? Now is the best opportunity. If you feel really guilty, we can consider giving her more compensation."

Bah!
Zhong Qing picked up the red wine bottle on the table and smashed it into pieces. The sharp bottle fragments were pressed against Chu Yuqing's throat.

"Tell me! Where is Mingzhu? Is she upstairs? Which room?"

Chu Yuqing was not threatened, but calmly moved her neck forward, letting the sharp bottle cut her skin.

The red blood flowed down the snow-white neck into the collar.

She closed her brown eyes that were exactly the same as Zhong Qing's, "You go ahead, I don't have much meaning in living anyway."

Zhong Qing collapsed and threw away half of the wine bottle in his hand, "If you don't want to tell me, then I'll go find Yan Yi!"

Chu Yuqing grabbed her, "Are you crazy? Are you going to ruin your lifelong happiness for an irrelevant outsider? Your father has already agreed for you to marry into the Yan family. You will be the upright mistress of the Yan family in the future. , no one can get past you."

Zhong Qing turned around with a face full of sarcasm, "You are crazy. If you dare to touch a hair of Shen Mingzhu, it's not just me, you and dad, and the entire Zhong family. Yan Yi will not let you go!"

Meng Yuqing was shocked, "What do you mean by this?"

"Why did I become friends with Shen Mingzhu, as well as Sister Yan Su, Ning Yuan, Zhuang Xueqi, and Ning Yuan? Why do you think she can get everyone's care?"

"You mean... Yan Yi is against her? How is that possible!?"

"Mom, you choose for yourself, whether to stop all this in time, or I call Yan Yi and let's finish it together."

Although he had doubts about Yan Yi's love for Shen Mingzhu, Chu Yuqing didn't dare to gamble.

There are many women, but if Yan Yi is offended, it will be harmful to the Zhong family.

"She's at 510, but your dad has been up there for a while."

Hearing this, Zhong Qing's legs softened and she rushed out the door the next second. (End of chapter)
