A Business Woman’s Rebirth - Chapter 8 She Knows?

“Mother don’t say that!” Xuan Sanaa defended Li Qing, yet the person in question wasn’t moved by her act of kindness and stared with a blank expression. This lack of gratitude upset Mrs. Chu even more as she rebuked angrily, ” Don’t even know how to show appreciation!? I should expect no less from an orphan girl, it really was a mistake for father to even pair you with my son!”

“Your blood pressure Qing Luo!” Da Ori gave a timely reminder to Mrs Chu using her maiden name. It was a three man act with one person, Li Qing, as the audience, and she was not impressed.

“Li Qing, hurry and apologize to mother!” Xuan Sanaa instigated as she rushed to rub Qing Luo’s back, attempting to soothe her. “What is there to apologize for? If Mrs. Chu wants to kill herself when I haven’t done anything, then that is her problem.” Li Qing finally spoke, yet, she said such infuriating words!

“You!” Mrs Chu almost burst a blood vessel, she couldn’t help thinking that Li Qing really was bad luck, cursing her to die and trying to anger her to death. “How could you say that!?” Xuan Sanaa shouted in alarm, she couldn’t believe that the usually submissive Li Qing dared to talk back to her and to Mrs. Chu.

Li Qing just spent a few days in the hospital and changed, could it be that since she lost her baby she had lost her rationality? “If as a mother-in-law she doesn’t put me in her eyes, why should I care about her?” Li Qing calmly replied as if this was an obvious reason. ” They say that children should be filial to their elders yet in return, shouldn’t their elders take care of them?” Mrs. Chu ‘ s face paled hearing Li Qing ‘ s mentioning of her lack of nurturing her own daughter-in-law, who wants to be labeled as a lousy elder?

“Ahem….” Qing Luo cleared her throat and continued, “you are being too serious Li Qing, I am merely trying to educate you on what is right and wrong afterall you are an orphan.” Was this woman trying to change the past with a few words? If destroying someone’s confidence, causing conflict in their marriage and humiliating them at every turn is considered education, who would want it?

“Exactly, Li Qing, how could you misunderstand mother’s words so much, even though you would never be her daughter-in-law she is still your elder,” Xuan Sanaa supported Qing Luo while calling her ‘mother’ for a second time and not failing to mention Li Qing ‘ s divorce with Chu An.

“Yes, don’t misunderstand Qing Luo, this is for your own good. You will never be good enough for Chu An, but she will still help you be a better person,” Da Ori, getting the signal from Xuan Sanaa also defended Qing Luo.

“Mmmm,” Li Qing ‘ s lips hooked up in a smirk yet her eyes held no warmth. It had been a while since she met such shameless women, back when she had now began rebuilding her father’s company this type of woman came in droves only to be disgraced by her. When had she ever accepted a loss when others went against her?

“Li Qing, we understand that you are distraught from losing your child, but you shouldn’t take your anger out on others, it is your fault you fell down the stairs,” Xuan Sanaa seemed to try to placate Li Qing yet reminded her about the loss of her child. However, she saw a smile bloom on Li Qing ‘ s face, eyes sparkling as if she were a child who found a new toy. “Oh?” Li Qing giggled creepily, “shouldn’t you know about that little ‘slip’ better than me Sanaa-jie?” she continued, intentionally stressing on the word ‘slip’.

Xuan Sanaa hearing Li Qing ‘ s words, paled and bit her lips, could it be Li Qing knows?
