Chapter 112: Just Wait

“Sheng Shulan, it was clearly your daughter-in-law who started this. She hit someone, and that’s just wrong—”

“I don’t care, you have to give me an explanation, or else—”

Before Zhao’s mother could finish, Qin’s mother cut her off. “Or else what? Hah, your daughter started something she couldn’t finish, and now you’re here to complain? You’ve got some nerve.”

“I’ll say it right here: your daughter has been picking on my daughter-in-law again and again—”

Qin’s mother was even more hot-tempered and furious than Zhao’s mother.

This really made the Zhao mother and daughter furious.

“Nonsense! My daughter just asked Tian Jia to invite your daughter-in-law over to talk about what happened last time. She started hitting as soon as she arrived. Tian Jia, tell them what really happened—”

Tian Jia’s expression froze.

She hadn’t expected to be called out so quickly.

She braced herself and stepped forward.

“—Auntie, it’s true that Sisi just wanted to invite her over to talk, but she kicked as soon as she came up—”

Zhao’s mother immediately puffed up with arrogance. “Sheng Shulan, did you hear that? My daughter just wanted to talk nicely, but your daughter-in-law started hitting. This time, she must apologize to my daughter, or I won’t let this go.”

Qin’s mother was about to speak, but Fu Mingxue beat her to it. “Are you done talking?”

Zhao’s mother glared. “You, you—”

She turned to Qin’s mother. “Sheng Shulan, listen to your daughter-in-law! Did you hear what she just said?”

Fu Mingxue sneered coldly. “Are you deaf? Didn’t you hear what I just said? If you didn’t, I’ll repeat it for you: are you done talking?”

Zhao’s mother’s face turned livid with anger. “You—you’re so rude—”

“Respect is for people who deserve it. Some people just aren’t worthy. They don’t have any manners themselves but expect others to show them respect. Do they really deserve it?”

“And besides, I’m right here. If you have a problem, come at me. Why are you talking so much to my mother-in-law?”

“Yes, I hit your daughter. She had it coming. Three of them ganged up on me, tried to beat me up—hah, now she’s the one who lost, and she has the nerve to play the victim? Shameless.”

“You think whatever you say goes? There were plenty of people watching and listening! This is Beijing, not somewhere your Zhao family can do whatever you want.”

“If you’re not happy, call the police! I’d like to see what’s wrong with self-defense. Honestly, I should’ve been rougher and knocked out a few of her teeth.”

“And another thing, I don’t go looking for trouble, but if someone insists on messing with me, don’t blame me for defending myself too harshly. Fists don’t have eyes, after all.”

“You, you—” Zhao’s mother’s eyes were red with rage.

She really wanted to slap this little brat a few times.

“Don’t ‘you’ me. If you’re not happy, call the police. Otherwise, stop whining here. Don’t you know how annoying you are? Now, get out.”

“You, you—” Zhao’s mother turned to Qin’s mother. “Sheng Shulan, you’re just going to let her talk to me like this?”

“I don’t think my daughter-in-law did anything wrong. If you’re not happy, call the police. Let them handle it however they want.”

Qin’s words made her stance clear.

She was firmly on her daughter-in-law’s side.

“Fine, I’ll call the police.” Zhao’s mother was furious.

Fu Mingxue sneered. “Go ahead.”

Zhao’s mother: …?

Not afraid, huh? Just you wait.

“Sisi, let’s go.”

Zhao Sisi was livid.

So she came all this way for nothing?

She shot Fu Mingxue a fierce glare, then followed her mother out.

Tian Jia and Li Hong hurried after them.

Both of them deeply regretted it—they hadn’t expected the Qin family to stand up for that woman so firmly."
