章節 58: Blame Yourself and Your Barren Womb (2)
"Lady Li, I wasn't expecting to see you at the hospital. Are you sick?" Lin Meirong asked curiously, suppressing the fear she had at the moment.
After meeting her in the hallway, Li Xiuying invited her for a coffee which she couldn't deny since Li Xiuying was the main investor of the film she was working on with Lan Jinyao.
Li Xiuying was looking at her oddly. Did she know something?
Lin Meirong couldn't brush off this feeling that Li Xiuying knew about the affair between her and Mu Jianyu. She shifted in her seat uncomfortably. She couldn't wait to leave this place and run away from Mu Jianyu's wife.
Li Xiuying smiled humorlessly.
"No. I'm not sick. In fact, I'm good and healthy. What about you, Miss Lin? Did you come for a checkup? I hope you received my congratulatory gifts for your pregnancy." Li Xiuying traced the edges of her mug and smiled knowingly while Song Zexi sat at the other table paying close attention to them.
"I-I received it. Actually, I was surprised that Lady Li knew where I was living," Lin Meirong said with an awkward laugh.
Indeed, she received it the moment she and Mu Jianyu came back to their love nest, the apartment Mu Jianyu bought and shared with her.
When Mu Jianyu saw the card and read from whom it came from, his face instantly drained its color the moment he saw Li Xiuying's name on it. Lin Meirong argued with him that Li Xiuying knew but Mu Jianyu refused to believe her words and claimed it was merely a coincidence.
But what if the wife really knew about their affair? What now?
Mu Jianyu and Li Xiuying had chosen to part ways already. It could be possible that Li Xiuying would blame her for this, right?
Li Xiuying also wasn't expecting to see the woman who caused her marriage to fall apart. No… she corrected herself. Lin Meirong only triggered what was inevitable between her and Mu Jianyu. Their marriage wasn't strong enough to begin with, even before he met Lin Meirong.
"Ah, I see. I hope this time you'll be a good mother to your child." She commented, dropping the bomb right on Lin Meirong who was left speechless.
"You… you knew…" Lin Meirong had a hard time to calm down as Li Xiuying finally showed her true colors to her.
"Of course, I knew, slut. Didn't you think you could fool me for long?" She placed her mug back on top of the table while complex feelings surged within Lin Meirong.
Even Song Zexi who was eavesdropping on their conversation was shocked at the sudden change in Miss Ying's language. She had to do double-take to make sure that the woman speaking at Lin Meirong was her Miss Ying and not her Miss Chuntao.
What the heck? Did Miss Chuntao possess Miss Ying? Why did Miss Ying sound like the vicious younger twin instead?
This couldn't be her soft-spoken and kind Miss Ying! Li Xiuying would never speak so harshly like this.
"Do you think such betrayal could be easily hidden from me? I'm his wife, Lin Meirong. I knew whenever something is up with my stupid husband."
"So I was right all along," Lin Meirong laughed, dropping the mask of pretense as Li Xiuying revealed her true colors.
"You can't possibly blame me for Jianyu's decision to leave you." Lin Meirong smirked arrogantly at Li Xiuying, "Lady Li, you could only blame yourself and the barren womb that you have for not giving him what he wanted."
This was something Li Xiuying wasn't aware of. So Mu Jianyu cheated on her because he thought she couldn't give him a child. Oh, the irony. When he'd chosen to turn his back to her, she ended up being pregnant. Now, he had no ounce of right to be a father to her child. Her baby didn't need a father like him.
She let the shock wash through her and calmed herself down. She knew what Lin Meirong was trying to do but she wouldn't allow the slut to demean her. If only she was as good as her twin sister, this shameless slut wouldn't have left any faces left to show to the public.
"So this is the kind of woman he'd chosen to replace me?" She laughed as if Lin Meirong had just told her a joke. Lin Meirong's face darkened. She'd never been belittled like this since she arrived at the capital but Li Xiuying easily tore down her pride.
"Do you think a slut like you have a place in his heart? What if I told you that what he feels about you was just as shallow as your attitude? Mu Jianyu might have chosen you now, but what if he found out your deepest secret, Miss Lin? Do you know what he's capable of when he's mad? I do and you wouldn't like to be the one subjected to his anger."
Cold shiver ran down her spine as Lin Meirong continued to listen to what Li Xiuying had to say. Li Xiuying knew all along and yet she played ignorance. Why? Why did she do that?
"You're lying! You're just trying to sow discord between us! We love each other and he would never hurt me!"
"Can you say the same words when he found another woman to replace you?" Li Xiuying stared at her right in her eyes.
Lin Meirong opened her mouth to argue but none came out. Mu Jianyu would betray her?
"Gu Changge, do you think a countryside bumpkin like you could outsmart me? Anyway, since you've taken my man under my nose, you better keep that garbage I have no use of. But if I were you, I would try to clean up my own mess. It stinks that my nose could pick up the stench from afar."
