Chapter 58

"What's going on here? Meiyun, what's happening?" Zhou Nan stared in disbelief at the scene before him, and hurriedly went to look at her injured face.

Although An Jingzhi was not as flustered as she appeared, he also had a bad feeling in his heart, "Where are your sister-in-law and Wenqing?"

Upon hearing An Jingzhi's question, An Meiyun's expression instantly became panicked.

Knowing that summer had just walked to the door, she heard An Meiyun say, "Dad, mom, I'm sorry, I think... I've caused trouble again."

With her head lowered to the side facing Zhou Nan, the slapped half of her face was just exposed to Zhou Nan. It was hard for anyone to believe this was not deliberate.

"What exactly happened? Tell me quickly, where are your sister-in-law and Wenqing?" Zhou Nan was stunned for a moment, then seemed to realize something and anxiously asked.

"It was just after you left, Wenqing kept teasing me in front of me, I... I didn't mean to push him down, I didn't expect it to be so coincidental either. I just lightly moved my arm when he hugged me, and he just happened to fall on the corner of the table..."

Zhou Nan felt the world spinning around her. Looking around, fortunately there were no traces of blood. She was so angry that she slapped An Meiyun on the shoulder, "You idiot, aren't you looking for trouble? You're getting married the day after tomorrow and you're still causing such an incident. Wenqing is just a two year old child, not to mention his mother is still at home. Even if he teased you, you could have just called your sister-in-law over, why did you have to push him?" "I really didn't mean it..." An Meiyun's voice carried a sob, and she also looked frightened.

However, she was not lying about this sentence.

In fact, ever since Knowing Summer returned, her situation at home has not been good. Reborn once, how could she possibly repeat the mistakes of her previous life and offend everyone in the family, eventually ending up isolated and helpless? In this life, she has been trying her best to please them.

But this matter could not be blamed on her, it could only be blamed on An Jingzhi and Zhou Nan, this pair of incompetent parents.

She was getting married the day after tomorrow, and the chances of coming back would be few in the future. Yet they still came to her room to tell her to come back less in the future.

And they kept saying how hard it was for Knowing Summer, and told her to treat her well in the future.

It was really a joke. What difficulties did Knowing Summer have?

She had 18 years of companionship, but as soon as Knowing Summer returned, she took away everything that belonged to her. There was no existence of An Meiyun in their hearts and eyes.

And to what extent was she eventually forced? She was humiliated and rejected on her wedding night when she came back to get engaged. She got a divorce as soon as she got married, and eventually died alone in a rented room.

In contrast, although Knowing Summer's life was a little bumpy, she had parents, an elder brother, and even Elder Pei's favor. When she grew old, she still had a son who could support her.

She occupied all the benefits, yet they still said that An Meiyun owed Knowing Summer. On what grounds?

Having her identity changed was not her wish either. She had lived in this family as their daughter for 18 years since she could remember, but was suddenly told that she was not their biological daughter and was to lose everything. How could she not hate this?

She hated everyone, the An family, and even the Gao siblings.

And funny enough, the Gao siblings even had the nerve to come and threaten her, demanding that she arrange jobs and give them money. If it weren't for fear that they would interfere with her wedding, she wouldn't even bother to say a word more to them.

All the unhappy things piled up together, she was already very annoyed. But the little brat was still laughing gleefully in front of her, clearly mocking her.

An Meiyun didn't even think about it, or it was deliberate. A two year old child could hardly even speak properly, how could he understand anything?

"Now is not the time to talk about these things. Meiyun, I'm asking you, where are your sister-in-law and Wenqing?" An Jingzhi suppressed his anger and asked again.

"Wenqing's forehead was cut and bleeding. My sister-in-law didn't even give me a chance to explain before hitting me. I didn't dare resist either, then she took Wenqing and left..."

It was unclear whether An Meiyun's words were true or false, but the neighbors came over to inform them after seeing the An family return, saying that Liu Ling took the child to seek help from them, then helped bring him to the hospital. After An Jingzhi asked clearly which hospital it was, he called An Zhixian and went out. Before leaving, he also asked An Zhiren to get to the bottom of what really happened.

Although An Zhiren looked refined, he actually did not have much affection for An Meiyun. But he would not ignore her crying appearance.

However, Wenqing getting injured still made him quite upset.

Seemingly calm as he walked over, An Zhiren looked down condescendingly and questioned, "What exactly is the situation? I advise you to tell the truth, otherwise when your sister-in-law comes back and your parents find out what really happened, things will not bode well for you."

Having lived together for several years, everyone had some understanding of each other's personalities.

Sister-in-law was not the kind of person who would cause trouble for no reason. Usually when taking care of Wenqing, she tried to keep her distance from An Meiyun.

It was hard to believe that Wenqing had hugged An Meiyun's arm to tease her. He was more inclined to believe that An Meiyun disliked seeing Wenqing.

It had to be said that An Zhiren still understood An Meiyun quite well.

"I'm not lying. It really happened." An Meiyun pleaded for help from Zhou Nan, "Mom, I know I can't shirk responsibility for this matter, but you have to believe me, I really didn't mean it. I don't even know what happened. The Gao siblings suddenly came to find me today, insisting that I arrange jobs for them and give them money. I don't have that ability! But they said they would keep harassing me if I didn't agree, and wouldn't let me off easily. I didn't dare tell you and dad about this either. I was already feeling upset about this matter, then you and dad said those things to me. I know I shouldn't ask for too much, but I really can't help but see you as my parents. I was so heartbroken, I really only pulled my arm back from Wenqing's grasp. I didn't even see clearly how he fell. Then my sister-in-law rushed over to hit me..."

An Meiyun's flustered tone was somewhat incoherent. Coupled with her innocent eyes and overflowing tears, she really had a somewhat pitiful demeanor.

Unfortunately, this act could only fool Zhou Nan.

And now, Zhou Nan, who was worried about her grandson, felt heartache for her. She couldn't possibly say that she did nothing wrong.

"Let's wait until your sister-in-law and Wenqing come back before we talk about it. I don't know if Wenqing is badly injured or not. I pray to the heavens that nothing bad happens!" Zhou Nan anxiously prayed with clasped hands, and then instructed An Meiyun, "Later when they come back, you must apologize sincerely to your sister-in-law. No matter what really happened, you shouldn't have taken it out on a child."

"I understand, mom. You must also help me plead with my sister-in-law." An Meiyun said softly with her head lowered.

Zhou Nan sighed irritably, and didn't forget to have An Zhiang take Knowing Summer back to her room.

And today's incident also made Knowing Summer reflect deeply on herself.
