The fortune teller's daughter has married, and all the wealthy families in the city are spoilin

Song Qingge and Jiang Zhou were eating melon seeds in a corner.

He glanced at her twice and asked in a low voice, "Is she Chen Zheng's mother?"

Jiang Zhou was used to her abilities, and snorted, "Hmm."

The scene was silent.

Everyone knows that the old lady of the Chen family has never liked this daughter-in-law and has been targeting her at every turn.

The more her son protected her, the more trouble she caused.

It seems like things are about to completely break down.

Xu Ying glanced smugly at Wen Ya and raised one corner of her lip: "Old Madam Chen."

"Hmm," Chen Xianghong replied casually.

His imposing manner pressured his son: "Are you planning to completely sever ties with the family for this spendthrift woman? Don't forget, everything you have comes from the Chen family, Chen Zheng!"

After speaking, she looked around at her grandchildren.

Although her eldest son was idle and irresponsible, he did get married early and gave her a pair of precious twin grandchildren.

They won't have to worry about their vast family fortune having no one to inherit it in the future.

If it weren't for the fear that the Chen family would be squandered by the eldest son, and the fact that she had tolerated this vile woman all these years, she would never have agreed to let her younger son be with her.

"She ruined our family's relationship and sowed discord. Today, I want you to make a choice in front of everyone: either divorce her or return the Chen Corporation to the Chen family. From now on, you will have no further connection with the Chen family."

She felt utterly disgusted the first time she met Wenya.

There was not a trace of desire in those pure eyes.

How could someone like that be of any help to the Chen family?

If she stays by her son's side, the Chen family will never grow strong; they will only be devoured.

This is a world where the strong prey on the weak, and only the mighty survive.

Chen Zheng chuckled twice to himself.

Only then did he truly feel utterly disappointed in his mother and that family.

He had sensed before that his mother favored his older brother. If his older brother were capable, then it would be fine.

But my older brother had no interest in going to school or managing the company.

If it weren't for the fact that his elder brother almost bankrupted the Chen family business, he wouldn't have had a chance to inherit it.

That position will never be his.

Even though he had been in that position for over a decade, leading the Chen family to greater success and achieving numerous miracles, his parents still only exchanged a few words with him each time they met.

"It's a pity your elder brother isn't capable. Otherwise, with your intelligence, you could have been his right-hand man, and our Chen family would definitely have developed even better."

"Everything you have now originally belonged to your older brother; you should be grateful."

……

He had heard similar words countless times.

The achievements he worked so hard to win and the miracles he created were, in the eyes of his so-called "family," nothing more than him getting lucky and picking up what his older brother didn't want.

The greatest disappointment in the world is that your closest relatives will never accept you.

I've been constantly negating you.

They've made you feel utterly worthless.

Chen Zheng suddenly remembered what Master Song had said that afternoon, and looked past the crowd toward Song Qingge.

The moment Song Qingge met Chen Zheng's tearful gaze, she nodded calmly without hesitation.

How familiar this scene is.

She had also experienced the moment when her father impatiently kicked her out of the house.

Until this moment, she deeply felt that her vibrant heart was covered in dust and felt suffocated by heavy stones.

Then it dawned on me.

It turns out she wasn't as capable as she imagined of letting go of the trauma of being abandoned by her biological father.

It turns out she had never truly let go of the past.

Suddenly, she understood what the bottleneck she had been unable to break through was.

She has lost the ability to feel love.

Those who cultivate the Tao should experience all joys and sorrows, understand the myriad aspects of human life, and then treat everything in the world with equanimity.

She is trapped in the cage of "love," unable to break free or find peace.

In that instant of enlightenment, she felt the surging spiritual energy within her body roaring.

She clenched her fist and could feel the spiritual vein jade bracelet doing its best to gather spiritual energy and inject it into her body.

After a while, things calmed down.

She understood that this was Heaven's will, requiring her to truly let go and rediscover love before she could move on to the next stage.

But how can she love someone else?

Can she still feel love?

His dark eyes were dull.

Like a luminous pearl covered in dust, it has lost its original luster.

Jiang Zhou focused on the girl, capturing the fleeting sense of loss and loneliness that flashed in her eyes amidst the subtle changes in her micro-expressions.

He silently took a step closer and took her hand.

I gripped it tighter.

The warm temperature penetrates the skin and blood vessels, gradually flowing into the heart.

The heavy stones seemed to have been moved slightly.

The heart resumed breathing.

Song Qingge suddenly raised her clear eyes and looked at the man.

In those usually icy, hawk-like eyes, what she felt at this moment was actually the warmth of the winter sun.

It is the sound that, on a cold winter night, breaks through the heavy ice and stubbornly penetrates into the cracks.

A beam of warm light.

She didn't say anything and quickly looked away.

Fortunately, Jiang Zhou only squeezed her hand and didn't ask any questions.

Fortunately, he didn't ask.

……

Having received Master Song's affirmation, Chen Zheng took a deep breath.

After so many years, we've finally taken this step.

But this moment was the most relaxed he had been in twenty years.

He stepped forward to stand in front of his wife and held her hand tightly.

Face your mother squarely.

Bow deeply.

To straighten oneself.

His tone was calm, but his eyes rippled with emotion: "Since that's the case, then Mother, I, Chen Zheng, hereby declare that from now on, I have nothing to do with the Chen family."

"you!"

Chen Xianghong stared wide-eyed in disbelief, pointing directly at Chen Zheng: "You unfilial son! Fine, fine, luckily I still have sons and grandsons. Now that you've made your choice, leave the Chen family as soon as possible."

"impossible."

Chen Zheng had already wiped away his tears and straightened his back to protect his wife: "You and Father founded the Chen family and laid its foundation, but don't forget that you entrusted the Chen family to me because your elder brother, oh no, Chen Sheng, was about to bankrupt it and needed me to save it."

The Chen family no longer belongs to you; it belongs to me. If you want it, then let Chen Sheng, or your grandchildren, come and take it from me. If you have the ability, then take it from me.

The volume, neither too loud nor too soft, felt like a thousand pounds hitting everyone's eardrums.

Aftershocks reverberated.

The sound was deafening.

Chen Xianghong's fingers trembled: "You, you really are lawless..." She clutched her heart and staggered backward.

The grandchildren instinctively dodged, not wanting to be hit.

After realizing what was happening, he quickly turned back and caught his grandmother.

Xu Ying covered her mouth, feigning surprise, her shrill voice piercing: "Ah, Madam Chen, what's wrong? Did you faint from anger? Let me help you!"

They talk a lot, but they don't actually do anything.

Only after confirming that Madam Chen had been helped steady by her grandchildren did she take action, standing on the moral high ground to criticize Wenya.

"Now that you've married into the Chen family, you're their daughter-in-law. How can you just stand by and watch your husband fight with his own mother like this for your sake?"

It was quite some time after the last dinner party that someone told her they could hear her innermost thoughts.

Only recently, when the name "Master Song" became widely known in high society circles, did she realize what was going on.

It turns out that Song Qingge was behind it all.

She's going to settle this score today.

She feigned surprise, opening her mouth wide: "I heard that President Chen went to see Master Song this afternoon. Could it be that Master Song said something that you believed without thinking, which is why you treated your own mother like this?"
