The Stepmother’s Counterattack: Raising a Child in a Bygone Era

Facing Chu Yuqing’s accusations, Zhong Qing smirked, "If there was a chance of getting caught, I wouldn’t have done it. I couldn’t possibly allow Yinyin and Xiaomin to have a sister who killed their father, and let them be criticized for a lifetime."

"As for how I did it, it’s actually quite simple. I soaked his underwear in high-concentration nicotine. The symptoms of poisoning are very similar to those of a myocardial infarction."

"Nicotine metabolizes and breaks down in the body in a few hours, of course, you wouldn’t find it."

"For the rest of your life, this place will be both your cage and your grave."

"I’ll have someone watch you closely to ensure you live a long, long life."

Chu Yuqing was so angry she wished she could flay Zhong Qing alive, "You ungrateful wretch with a heart of a beast, I should never have gone soft and kept you. If it weren’t for your existence, your dad wouldn’t have treated me like that!"

Zhong Qing was not angry.

She had heard such curses too many times that her ears had grown calluses.

"Do you think I wanted to be your daughter? You were the stupid one, seeking revenge for Zhong Jiping’s infidelity by sleeping with someone for one night and falling pregnant with me, a bastard child."

"You thought you could deceive everyone and let Zhong Jiping be a cuckold, but you didn’t expect my appearance to expose your affair."
