Cutesy Wife Sweet Like Honey: Mr. Mu's Nightly Dote!

Chapter 1159: Chapter 1201: Did You Already Know?

Seeing Ling’s mother clearly having done wrong yet still so self-righteous, Ling’s father was furious, ”You... you... how can you be like this? Do you know what the consequences are if you reveal the truth like this?”

”I don’t care about the consequences. All the money I’ve painstakingly saved is gone. It’s as if my life is over! Anyway, half of my life is already gone, what else am I afraid of!” Ling’s mother spread her hands, looking completely like she was being shameless.

”You... you...!” Ling’s father pointed his finger at Ling’s mother’s nose, stammering for quite a while before finally asking, ”I ask you, besides telling Yueyue, did you also tell Xiao Feng?”

”Since I told Yueyue, of course I told Xiao Feng! Since Ling Shenglan won’t let me live well and wants to take my life, I definitely want to take half of her life too! I want the two people she cares about most to hate her at the same time and not forgive her; that would make me feel great!” Ling’s mother didn’t hold back at all, honestly revealing everything to Ling’s father.

Although he had previously threatened her not to talk, now that she had spoken, she did not believe he would actually divorce her over something unchangeable.

Sure enough, after hearing Ling’s mother’s words, Ling’s father raised his hand in anger, intending to hit Ling’s mother.

Ling’s mother wasn’t afraid at all, raised her chin, and tauntingly said, ”Hit me, go ahead! I want to see if you have the guts to hit me! Let me remind you, when I married you, you had only a run-down hut that leaked on rainy days! Back then, I didn’t dislike you, and you promised me you would listen to me for life! And if you break your word today by hitting me, then our marriage is over! I want to see which is more important to you—the sister who doesn’t acknowledge you or the wife who has stood by you through thick and thin!”

”You...!” Ling’s father was too angry to speak, his hand suspended mid-air for a long time, unable to bring it down.

Ling’s mother seemed to be fueled by her words, looked at Ling’s father’s raised hand, and suddenly her eyes filled with tears. She started to cry and recount her grievances, ”Remembering back then, to give you a son, I hid all around, with not a grain of rice left at home, yet I persisted in birthing a son for you! Don’t you think of how much hardship I endured back then! When our fourth child was just born, I lived every day on thin rice porridge, without even a proper meal! I’ve suffered so much with you, and today you actually want to hit me for an outsider! Boo-hoo... if I’d known you were so heartless, I’d never have married you!”

Ling’s mother almost recounted all the grievances she had suffered with Ling’s father!

Listening to her accusations, Ling’s father reluctantly pulled his hand back, sighed helplessly, sat down next to her, and looked guilty, ”I’m not saying I don’t want you; after all, we’re family. Why make such a commotion out of it! Though Shenglan has done some wrong, in the end, she is my biological sister. Regardless of her faults, we can’t treat her this way! Now that you’ve told the truth to Yueyue and Xiao Feng, they surely won’t forgive her. How do you expect her to live the rest of her life!”

Ling’s mother wiped her tears while speaking self-righteously, ”She took all our money, did she think about how we would live the rest of our lives! She doesn’t care about our survival, why should we care about hers! She deserves this, it’s all self-inflicted! If she knew this day would come, why did she act like that in the first place!”

”...!” Faced with Ling’s mother’s words, Ling’s father couldn’t find words to rebut, only sighed repeatedly, ”Forget it, since things have reached this stage, let’s leave it at that! We’ll clear the accounts and return the money to Shenglan, and consider our ties severed! If she refuses to forgive us, then so be it.”

Ling’s mother sniffed hard, sobbed, ”What else can we do? It’s enough to have me and the children with you; that sister was unnecessary anyway!”

”Indeed, having you all is enough!” Ling’s father lowered his head, eventually choosing to compromise.

He couldn’t help it; he had been weak all his life, and what mattered most to him was his wife and four children! Since things had come this far, he’d quickly return the money to Shenglan, sever relations cleanly, and go home with his wife to live their own life, without any further ties with them.

Ling’s mother, knowing Ling’s father would compromise, felt triumphant in her heart, ”Alright, go on and sort out the list! I’m tired and want to rest!”

”Okay! Go have a good rest!” Ling’s father gently helped Ling’s mother to lie down on the bed, tucked her in with a light blanket, and then sat down at the only table in the room to continue organizing the list.

Watching Ling’s father’s earnest back, Ling’s mother clenched her hands tightly, her jaw set. Thinking about the fate awaiting Ling Shenglan, she was filled with excitement.

.........

On the other side, at the Huo Family Villa.

After Ling’s mother left, Ling Yueyue remained seated there, unmoving, her eyes fixed forward as if staring at something, yet her gaze was empty and unfocused.

Seeing her expression, Huo Junmo felt heartache, held her hand tightly, and said vulnerably, ”Yueyue, you should know well what kind of person your mother is. We absolutely cannot believe everything she said! She came here today with ill intentions; we mustn’t fall for it! I know my wife has always been a very smart person!”

After Huo Junmo finished speaking, Ling Yueyue still didn’t react, nor did her gaze return from afar.

Seeing her like this, Huo Junmo felt unbearable pain and got up, walked over to her, pulled her head into his embrace, and gently said, ”Yueyue, I’ve said before, we’re married, whatever happens, I will be by your side, I’m your support. Even if the sky falls, I’ll hold it up for you. If you’re sad, cry in my arms, I’ll always hold you and protect you!”

After hearing Huo Junmo’s words, Ling Yueyue finally spoke, ”Cry? Why should I cry? What’s there for me to cry about? My family is harmonious, my marriage is blissful, we have children, I’m the happiest person in the world, why should I cry?”

”You...!” Ling Yueyue’s reaction left Huo Junmo puzzled.

Ling Yueyue withdrew from Huo Junmo’s embrace, lifted her head to look at Huo Junmo’s strong jaw, and asked pointedly, ”Why was it that you knew about this beforehand? You just kept it from me and didn’t tell me?”

Otherwise, how could he have appeared so timely, and after hearing the whole thing, not show any surprise at all.
