Chapter 166: As the Water Recedes, the Rocks Emerge (4)_1
At that moment, Haotian was seized by the arm by Liang Yuemei, and he was also shocked by Liang Yuemei’s mad actions, forgetting to dodge. As for Situ Xin, her mind was in disarray with concern, as everyone should know, her family is her Achilles heel—if anyone touched her family members, she definitely would not let them off easily.
When Liang Yuemei regained her senses, she said a bit crazily, "You’re lying to me, this is impossible, Ruobing is clearly Haoran’s child, how could it become Jia Zhengce’s child. You must be deceiving people."
"Humph, deceiving? You keep talking about that night, don’t you, so why don’t you tell everyone about what happened that night?" Although Liu Qian felt pity for Liang Yuemei after reading the investigation report Situ Xin had given to Old Master Situ, seeing this woman trying to entangle herself with her husband over and over again, she had had enough.
"Right, right, about that night, that night." At this point, Liang Yuemei was getting anxious, eager to explain herself, but the more anxious she was, the less clear she became.
It was Old Master Situ who, standing to the side, said, "Liang Yuemei, that night you’re talking about, is it when Haoran, Jia Zhengce, and others from their barracks were hosting a gathering to celebrate someone’s retirement?"
"Yes, yes, that’s the one." Liang Yuemei, no longer paying attention to who was speaking, heard someone voicing what she wanted to say and immediately nodded in agreement.
"Liang Yuemei, we have already investigated the events of that day. After you got drunk, the person who supported you and took you home wasn’t my husband Haoran, but Jia Zhengce. I think with this clarification, you should be aware of what happened that night," Liu Qian filled in the rest of the story.
Old Master Situ and Liu Qian’s words made Jia Zhengce’s gaze flicker and sweat broke out all over his body; he had wiped the sweat from his forehead countless times, and it seemed to be getting worse.
Old Master Jia and Jia Zhengxin were also aware of this matter, but the version they knew differed from the version Old Master Situ and the others knew. Of course, their version not something they had found out through investigation, but something they heard from Liang Yuemei’s mouth after they found out she might be related to Situ Haoran. Now, after hearing Liu Qian’s words and giving it more thought, they realized how foolish they were to have believed Liang Yuemei’s words without conducting their own investigation.
Why hadn’t they considered Situ Haoran’s character, whether he was someone who would do such a thing? In all likelihood, if Old Master Jia and Jia Zhengxin had heard Liang Yuemei’s words at any other time, they would have noticed something off, but at that time, they were blinded by joy. Obsessed with bringing down the Situ Family, they lost their reason.
"What, not Situ Haoran? How could this be, I, I clearly saw it was Haoran," Liang Yuemei was still living in the dream she had woven for herself.
