Chapter 165: As the Water Recedes, the Rocks Emerge (3)_1
"You." Old Master Jia gazed at the seemingly innocent face, yet the words coming out of that mouth enraged him to the verge of blowing smoke out of his seven orifices. His lips quivered, and he finally let out a single word.
And upon hearing Situ Xin’s words, Jia Zhengce was so shocked, he stared at Situ Xin as if he had seen a ghost. He knew his reputation outside wasn’t great, but as for keeping a mistress and having an illegitimate child, nobody outside knew about that. Otherwise, how would his legitimate wife have let him off? You must know, his wife was born into a noble family.
"What’s the matter? Surprised that I would know about these things, huh? I’ll have you know that I have detailed records of all the deeds you Jia Family get up to behind closed doors," Situ Xin said, her innocent expression suddenly turning serious. "The slander you’ve fabricated against our Situ Family, I expect you to clear it up before tomorrow. If you don’t clear it up by tomorrow, then just wait for the Jia Family’s downfall." While saying this, Situ Xin’s eyes were filled with coldness, instilling fear into Old Master Jia, Jia Zhengce, and Jia Zhengxin.
Old Master Jia, who had been on the battlefield, felt fear for the first time in many years, a fear that welled up from the bottom of his heart. Unbeknownst to him, this was due to the imposing aura Situ Xin had intentionally released, prompting such an intense fear. This was, after all, the sorrow of the weak in the face of the strong.
After Situ Xin finished speaking, her family prepared to leave. But before they could take a step out, two individuals who shouldn’t have been there appeared in the hospital. Liang Yuemei, supported by her daughter Liang Ruobing, walked in.
And Liang Yuemei, who already had a bit of a Sister Lin vibe to her, looked even more frail after yesterday’s blow. But with her aged appearance, it was impossible to feel any pity for her.
Upon her entrance, Liang Yuemei locked her expressive eyes onto Situ Haoran, but Situ Haoran turned away and walked over to his wife Liu Qian, wrapping an arm around her slender waist.
Seeing this, mist began to form in Liang Yuemei’s eyes, prompting Situ Xin to inwardly comment that it was a pity Liang Yuemei didn’t become an actress.
Before Liang Yuemei could speak, Situ Che stepped forward, blocking the gaze she directed toward his father. He then said with a face as handsome as Situ Haoran’s, "Auntie, please mind your image." Although the paternity report was out and it was now clear there was no relation between Liang Yuemei and his father, he felt very uncomfortable seeing a woman looking at his father with that kind of gaze.
When Liang Ruobing supported Liang Yuemei as they walked in, everyone’s eyes turned toward them, including Jia Zhengce. His eyes widened the moment he saw Liang Yuemei enter.
