Free Web NovelChapter 1165: Chapter 1166: Vicious
They all say that blood is thicker than water, and perhaps that’s true.
The simple-minded Lv Guoqing kept shouting "child" when he saw the boy, while Wang Xinxia was already crying like a tearful mess.
However, because they were in the restaurant, they were not noticed by the child and the woman beside him.
The boy seemed to sense something, suddenly looked over at the restaurant a few times, then followed the woman in bewilderment.
"I..." Wang Xinxia wanted to chase after them but was stopped by Lv Guodong.
"It’s him." Wang Xinxia cried and said, "Guodong, did you see? He looks exactly like our Gu Qing."
Lv Guodong nodded.
"Mom, don’t worry. Tomorrow we’ll visit the Xue family." Lv Guodong said.
The woman who had walked away suddenly stopped and pinched the boy, "Why are you walking so slow? Every day I have to pick you up, just like I owe you from a past life."
"You just had to choose painting to learn, huh?" The woman pointed her finger at the boy’s head and said, "And you dared to say it in front of the old man? Are you intentionally making my life miserable?"
The boy pursed his lips without saying anything, but tears started rolling down.
"Xue Jinzhe, you still have the nerve to cry." The woman said angrily, "Let me tell you, if you let the old man know anything again, you better watch your skin."
This woman was astonishingly Dong Mei, who had cried her heart out in the hospital back then.
At that time, she gave birth to a stillborn, and it was a boy; Dong Mei nearly went mad.
But Wang Meili’s words gave her a glimpse of hope.
If she didn’t quickly find a way, her position in the Xue family was surely in jeopardy.
Getting divorced would be the least of her worries.
So when Wang Meili suggested swapping children, she agreed without a second thought.
But ever since she brought the child home and her crisis was averted, Dong Mei’s attitude shifted.
Especially whenever she thought of how her own son and Xue Jinzhe were born one after the other, yet her son died while Xue Jinzhe was alive and kicking, Dong Mei felt hatred.
She even thought, if it weren’t for Xue Jinzhe, perhaps her son wouldn’t have died.
Xue Jinzhe must have brought bad luck to her son.
And she still had to raise Xue Jinzhe to adulthood?
Just this thought twisted Dong Mei’s mind.
When Xue Jinzhe was young, she still treated him somewhat well, but as this thought increasingly affected her, every time she saw Xue Jinzhe, she thought of her unfortunate son.
It’s all Xue Jinzhe’s fault, if he hadn’t stolen her son’s luck, they wouldn’t be in this situation.
"Mom, I’m sorry, I won’t dare again in the future." Xue Jinzhe cried and tried to grab Dong Mei’s arm, but she heartlessly shook him off, "Don’t touch me."
Dong Mei walked ahead angrily, with Xue Jinzhe following behind, but his legs were still short and couldn’t keep up with Dong Mei, so he started to jog.
Who knew Dong Mei suddenly remembered something and stopped, causing Xue Jinzhe to bump into her.
"Are you looking to die? That hurt!" Dong Mei raised her hand and slapped him hard.
But she didn’t hit his face, instead landed a heavy slap on his back.
Then she spitefully twisted a few times on the inside of his arm.
"Wah..." Xue Jinzhe immediately burst into tears.
