News media reported live on the accusations made by Wen QingCui against An Yanyuan and An Nuan.
Under the camera lens,
Wen QingCui appeared pitiful, breaking down in tears as she accused An Yanyuan and An Nuan of being heartless and driving her out of the house, leaving her to starve on the streets.
By her side was Liu Feng, playing the role of a dutiful daughter-in-law.
She continuously comforted Wen QingCui, urging her not to let anger harm her health. Liu Feng assured her that even if An Yanyuan ended up in jail, she, as his daughter-in-law, would never neglect her. She promised to take care of her for the rest of her life, even if Wen QingCui fell seriously ill.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law duo, captured on camera, successfully garnered the sympathy of onlookers.
Naturally,
An Yanyuan and An Nuan became the subjects of public criticism.
People remarked that regardless of one's capabilities, if filial piety is absent, morality is compromised.
There were even calls to boycott the An family's business conglomerate.
Some demanded that the police intervene and criminally detain An Yanyuan and An Nuan on charges of elderly abuse.
The entire internet rallied behind Wen QingCui, seeking justice on her behalf.
Until...
A video emerged out of nowhere.
At that time, Wen QingCui was still sobbing, recounting all the mistreatment she had allegedly endured from An Yanyuan and An Nuan. Unbeknownst to her, her own ugly and distorted behavior had been exposed.
"Madam An," a reporter interrupted her, "You've been repeatedly accusing An Yanyuan and An Nuan of abusing you. Can you clarify how they have mistreated you? Did they physically assault you? Did they verbally abuse you? Or is it a result of unreasonable demands from your side that led to conflicts?"
"I would never make unreasonable demands. I have always been tolerant towards them. Even when An Yanyuan was in trouble, I didn't unconditionally believe him. It was only because they pushed me to my limits that I resorted to this method of accusing them. I never intended to embarrass everyone like this, after all, we're family..."
"It seems that Madam An has made similar accusations against An Yanyuan and An Nuan in the media before," the reporter interrupted her again.
The reporter's attitude was noticeably colder this time around.
Wen QingCui paused for a moment, then hurriedly explained, "It's only because they pushed me to the extreme. Throughout my life, I have silently devoted myself to the family, to my children and grandchildren. Isn't everything that An Yanyuan possesses the result of my efforts as a mother? I painstakingly put in so much effort, only to be treated with such ingratitude. It's as if I can't even close my eyes in the coffin."
"Just now, Madam, you claimed that you never made any unreasonable demands to your son," the reporter questioned, "But asking for 10 million yuan right off the bat, does that not qualify as an unreasonable demand for an elderly woman like yourself?"
Wen QingCui was taken aback.
"And what about asking your own grandson to hit your granddaughter? Does that not qualify as an unreasonable demand?" the reporter continued.
Wen QingCui's face changed.
The elderly woman appeared abandoned and pitiful at first glance, but in an instant, she turned sharp and acerbic. She exclaimed fiercely, "Who told you that?! Don't accuse me here, or I will take you to court!"
"Madam, the video of your recent disturbance in An Yanyuan's office has been exposed." The journalist took out a phone and played the video in front of Wen QingCui with a clearly sarcastic tone. "Didn't you claim to have poor health? Looking at this, it seems that Madam An can easily live up to a hundred years."
Wen QingCui took a closer look.
Her emotions immediately became uncontrollable.
Liu Feng also saw it.
And he couldn't hold back either.
The appearance of the two on the screen was so ridiculously satisfying.
Perhaps Wen QingCui never expected that she would be publicly humiliated like this.
She never imagined that An Nuan would scheme against her like this!
"Madam, at your age, it's better to accumulate some virtues for yourself." The journalist, deceived by Wen QingCui, struggled to control his emotions.
"People say that a tiger does not eat its cubs. Madam, you are pushing your own son to his death! If the video hadn't been exposed, your son and granddaughter would have been truly ruined by you!"
"Those who commit unjust acts will perish by them. Hasn't the fate of your eldest son taught you a lesson?"
The journalists began to condemn Wen QingCui.
This was the first time in the history of Beiwen Kingdom that something like this had happened.
One can imagine the magnitude of the public anger towards Wen QingCui.
Anyway, on that day,
Wen QingCui and Liu Feng truly left the camera like rats crossing the street, their appearance too disheveled.
From now on,
No one would believe what Wen QingCui said anymore.
It was considered a solution to her trouble.
After all, in her reincarnated life, she never thought of wasting time on insignificant people.
Of course,
To be able to vent her anger like this and expose Wen QingCui's true colors, An Nuan felt quite satisfied.
An Nuan checked the time.
It was 6 p.m.
During this period, her work had basically fallen into place.
She didn't need to work overtime every day.
She got into Hu Feng's car and went home.
When she arrived at Ye Jinghuai's villa, Ye Jinghuai hadn't returned yet.
During this time, Ye Jinghuai seemed particularly busy.
Ever since he helped her win the lawsuit, Ye Jinghuai had been busy.
He always left early and returned late.
"Madam, we can have dinner now." Uncle Zhong respectfully approached and said.
An Nuan checked the time.
She said, "Let's wait for Ye Jinghuai."
"Young Master has been busy lately, and he usually comes back late." Uncle Zhong explained.
"It's okay, I'm not very hungry anyway." An Nuan sat on the sofa, picked up the remote control, and turned on the TV. "I'll watch some variety shows to relax."
"Alright." Uncle Zhong respectfully complied.
As he walked away,
he couldn't help but feel gratified.
He used to think it was the young master's wishful thinking.
But now it seemed that Madam cared a great deal about the young master.
The old lady used to always worry that the young master would grow old alone.
Now,
she could finally rest in peace.
An Nuan waited until after 9 p.m.
Before she saw Ye Jinghuai, dressed in a suit, return to the hall.
Seeing An Nuan on the sofa, he was still somewhat surprised.
An Nuan had already returned to her room by the time Ye Jinghuai arrived. "Young Master," Uncle Zhong hurriedly approached, "Madam has been waiting for you to have dinner."
Ye Jinghuai froze in place, his gaze fixed on An Nuan. An Nuan started to feel a bit uneasy under his intense stare.
She said, "I had something to discuss with you, it wasn't specifically waiting for you."
"Is that so?" Ye Jinghuai's lips curled up.
Damn it, this man's smile was unbelievably captivating.
Taking a few strides with his long legs, Ye Jinghuai approached An Nuan, his handsome face coming close to hers. His gaze locked onto her, and he asked, "Are you sure you're not waiting for me because you missed me?"
