Chapter 394: Chapter 395: Is my life even worse than a dog’s?

Liu Ruyan stared at the frozen, emotionless expression on Gu Qichen’s face, gritting her teeth in anger.

She let go of Xia Yangyang’s hand.

Approaching Xia Liangdong, she asked, “Aren’t you going to say anything? Regardless of Weiwei’s mistakes, she is still your daughter. Who in this world is without fault? Weiwei is only 19. Are you saying you won’t even give her a single chance for redemption?”

Xia Liangdong rose.

Turning his back to them, he said; “Weiwei’s mistake this time was too severe. I have no face to say anything.”

Xia Liangdong was sternly silent.

Liu Ruyan pointed with shaking hands at Xia Liangdong’s turned back, “Xia Liangdong, you are heartless. I was truly blind to have waited for you for ten years, risking childbirth complications to bear a daughter for you. You said you would always treat us well, but have you? Over the years, what have you done for our daughter and me? Weiwei is suffering in jail now, and you, her father, can just abandon her like this. Does it mean that in your heart, only a daughter from Tan Zhen is truly yours? Are the ones I bore less than dogs?”

Liu Ruyan cried out in denunciation.

Xia Liangdong seemed deeply pained as well.

Both Xia Yangyang and Xia Weiwei were his daughters.

The flesh of his own body.

But he had never expected Weiwei to do such desperate deeds, to say nothing of Qi Chen’s unique background.

Now Yangyang wasn’t just his daughter, she was the revered family’s young mistress.

He simply could not find words to speak on this matter.

However, Xia Yangyang could no longer stand by.

Xia Yangyang began, “Dad, there are a few things I’d like to discuss alone with Aunt Liu, could you all step out for a moment?”

Gu Qichen’s eyes flashed with suspicion.

But in the end, he and Xia Liangdong left the study room together.

Xia Yangyang closed the door.

Liu Ruyan sat down on the sofa, looking haggard, a far cry from her usually elegant demeanor.

Her eyes were red with undisguised anger and contempt.

Liu Ruyan began, “Xia Yangyang, have you made up your mind to bring down your sister?”

In Liu Ruyan’s eyes, Xia Yangyang was nothing special and she had never considered her a threat.

But she had clearly underestimated Xia Yangyang’s position in Qi Chen’s heart.

Now that Yangyang was holding her tongue, Qi Chen was resolved to send Weiwei to jail.

The power of the Gu family was formidable.

If Qi Chen wanted to imprison Weiwei, it would be impossible for her to get out a day early.

If Weiwei really had to serve three years in prison, she would lose the best years of her life. Her entire life would be ruined.

Xia Yangyang said straightforwardly, “Aunt Liu, as you know, it’s up to me whether Weiwei goes to jail.”

Liu Ruyan stared hard at Xia Yangyang’s calm face, her eyes filled with anger like hooked knives, “I knew you were doing this on purpose. Weiwei is so innocent, she stands no chance against you. You want to destroy her. Deep down, you resent me, don’t you? Resent me for stealing your father, for breaking up your family. In your eyes, I’m always the homewrecker, aren’t I?”

Xia Yangyang responded indifferently, “Indeed, Weiwei caused all of this. She is malicious, and I never intentionally framed her. I merely took advantage of what was already unfolding.”

“What exactly do you want, you little fox?”

“As long as you tell me the truth about my mother’s death, I will let Weiwei out. But if you dare tell a single lie, I assure you, Weiwei will rot in jail.”

Liu Ruyan laughed wryly, “So you were waiting for me here. Why do you ask me about this?”

“Aunt Liu, Weiwei is only 19. A child of her age would not be so cunning without guidance. If it weren’t for your manipulation, she would not be in this state today.. Isn’t this the result you were hoping for by trying to tear Qi Chen and me apart?”
