Soft-centered strawberry cake

Chapter 126 Do you have any shame?

Midday
Xu Ling strolled hand in hand with her son along the corridor of the aquarium.

Xu Jinghao couldn't understand everything in front of him, but he appreciated and was amazed by the different groups of creatures.

"Mommy! Mommy! Big fish!"

A swift and agile manta ray swam over, as if it were smiling at Xu Jinghao.

Xu Ling didn't care what Xu Jinghao was saying; she had already turned on the video on her phone.

In the video, the big dog suddenly pounced on Tong Ziyan, but Ming Weiyi pushed Tong Ziyan away. The person who was knocked down and injured by the dog was not Tong Ziyan.

Seeing this, a look of disappointment appeared in Xu Ling's eyes; she was not satisfied with this result.

But then she thought, she had plenty of time to continue playing with Tong Ziyan, since Tong Ziyan was in the shadows while she was in the open.

Today I'll take this as revenge on Ming Weiyi, since she said such unpleasant things last time.

Thinking of this, Xu Ling's lips curled into a smug smile, and she happily picked up Xu Jinghao.

"Haohao, Mommy is holding you so you can see the big fish. Come on, wave to the big fish."

The world before him was so new and exciting. Xu Jinghao excitedly waved to the big fish inside the glass.

Time flies in the hospital. After the doctor's careful treatment, Pei Ming led the pitiful Ming Wei out of the emergency room.

It was probably because she was dressed too lightly for summer that Ming Weiyi had several abrasions of varying degrees on her body. In addition, there was a deep wound from the dog bite, so to outsiders, she looked like she was covered in bruises.

The Pei family's driver slowly pulled the car up beside the two of them. When Pei Ming opened the car door, Wen Jiani was already sitting in the passenger seat.

"Why are you alone? Where are your brother and sister-in-law?" Pei Ming said as he gently helped Ming Weiyi into the car.

"After seeing that my second sister-in-law had been safely taken to the doctor, my sister-in-law said she was not feeling well. I think she was frightened and had a miscarriage. My brother is with her now while she is undergoing examinations."

The words "fetal distress" made Mingwei feel uneasy. Her sixth sense told her that what happened today might not be an accident.

"Your sister-in-law has had a miscarriage because of what happened today, right?"

Mingwei also confirmed what Wen Jiani had just said once more. At this moment, the three people in the car all looked at each other.

The three of them looked at each other with a sense of understanding, but also uncertainty.

"I bet! Could that bitch have done this today?" Wen Jianni was the first to blurt out, convinced that Pei Ming and Ming Wei must think the same way she did.

Mingwei wasn't sure if Wen Jiani knew the whole story, so she tentatively asked, "Do you know about Xu Ling?"

Wen Jianni nodded. "I know everything you two know. My mom told me everything."

Since Wen Jiani knew everything, Ming Weiyi decided to speak frankly.

“You think the same way I do. If that dog had pounced on my sister-in-law today, the fall, the shock, and the dog bite would have likely caused her to lose her baby.”

"It's suspicious that a rabid dog would suddenly appear in the city center in broad daylight."

Listening to Ming Weiyi and Wen Jiani's analysis, Pei Ming really wanted to curse Pei Cheng to death.

If it weren't for Pei Cheng's soft heart towards Xu Ling, Xu Ling wouldn't have had the chance to cause trouble in City C, and Ming Wei wouldn't have suffered today because of protecting Tong Ziyan.

"Damn it, she better not have done what happened today." Pei Ming's tone and eyes revealed a cold and ruthless edge when he said this.

This was the first time Ming Wei had ever heard Pei Ming swear, and he seemed genuinely angry. Ming Wei knew that Pei Ming wouldn't let this matter rest.

Of course, if Xu Ling really did what happened today, Ming Wei wouldn't let herself be bitten by a dog for nothing, and she definitely wouldn't let Xu Ling get away with it. Jiangcheng
Compared to City C, the heat in Jiangcheng is even more intense, so much so that people are reluctant to go out on the beautiful weekend.

These past few days, Du Lian hasn't had much to do, so he's been leisurely playing online games at home.
The phone always rings at the most inopportune times, and this time was no exception.

Du Lian glanced at the person who had called him, frowned, and hung up the phone.

Less than ten seconds later, his phone rang again; it was Zhou Sisi calling again.

"Hey, what exactly do you want?"

Du connected the call, but his expression and tone were very impatient.

"I really feel guilty towards you, and I want to apologize. Can you come out and meet me so we can have a proper talk?"

The damage Zhou Sisi caused Du Lian cannot be resolved with just an apology.

He decisively refused, saying, "There's no need to meet. I don't want to hear your apology either; it's pointless."

"Please, I'm begging you."

In the past, Zhou Sisi would never have uttered the word "beg" in front of Du Lian.

Du Lian backed down, saying, "A meeting is impossible. Say what you have to say now."

Du Lian's voice was resolute, and Zhou Sisi also chose to back down; otherwise, Du Lian would have hung up the phone without giving her a chance to speak.

"Du Lian, these past two years, although I've lived the life I wanted, the only person I love is you. Every time I wake up from a nightmare, I wish I had stayed with you from the beginning..."

Hearing these words, Du Lian's face darkened. "Enough. If that's what you're going to say, then there's no need to say it."

"Can you give me another chance? I really regret it now. You're the only one who's ever been the best to me."

As Zhou Sisi spoke, she suddenly burst into tears, which made her seem quite sentimental.

"No, I already have a girlfriend, as you can see."

“You’ve only been in Jiangcheng for two months. How much affection could you possibly have for her? We’ve been together for seven years.”

Hearing Zhou Sisi mention seven years, Du Lian sneered, "Heh, you know it's seven years, huh?"

This question left Zhou Sisi speechless. Two years ago, disregarding her seven-year relationship with Du Lian and the fact that their families had reached the point of discussing marriage, she resolutely cheated on Du Lian with his then-employer.

"You hate me, don't you?" Zhou Sisi asked another question in order to keep Du Lian involved.

"I don't hate you. On the contrary, I should thank you. If it weren't for the awful things you and he did, I wouldn't have changed jobs back then, and I wouldn't have met my amazing boss now."

Du Lian's words came from the bottom of his heart. Pei Ming had truly been incredibly kind to him over the past two years, not only giving him ample money but also granting him real power in the companies controlled by Pei Ming within the Pei Group.

“Since you’ve gained more from what happened back then, you haven’t lost anything. We can start over.”

Zhou Sisi's logic was so infuriating that it made Du Lian laugh. How come he never realized that Zhou Sisi had something wrong with her head?

Have you no shame?

"How could you say that to me?" Du Lian actually called her shameless, which was something Zhou Sisi never expected.

"That's it. From now on, bridges and roads are separate."

As soon as Du finished speaking, he hung up the phone without wasting a second.

He hoped that he had made himself clear enough today, and that Zhou Sisi would stop bothering his life.
