My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Little did she know, the man she wanted to secretly complain to merely glanced at her before saying, “So, Mrs. Rong, even though you knew your friend’s daughter stole your daughter’s boyfriend and spread rumors online about your daughter cheating and being kept as a mistress, you chose to turn a blind eye, even followed her to Dihor Garden, asking your daughter not to demand an apology from the person caught in the act—all out of a mother’s love?”

His every word was delivered in a stern, calm tone; despite not being loud, the oppressive atmosphere made it hard for Jiang Meiqi to breathe.

Her face felt as if it had been slapped, burning with pain.

“The rumors online are a misunderstanding. I already said that it was Weiwei’s team…” she still tried to whitewash Rong Weiwei.

Li Shengxiao ruthlessly cut her off, “Mr. Shi made it clear during an interview with reporters. That surely can’t be a misunderstanding! He’s a grown man; the words he said in front of reporters couldn’t possibly have been manipulated by someone’s team, right? It’s even less likely that someone forced him to make malicious accusations!”

“Mufeng said that because…” Jiang Meiqi almost blurted out that Mufeng had said those things because that little bastard was already kept by a man five years ago and even got pregnant by some old guy. But just as the words reached her lips, she remembered she still had to play the role of a mother. No matter what, a ‘mother’ couldn’t possibly declare her ‘daughter’s’ past scandals in public!

But it was that little bastard who was promiscuous in the first place, so why should Weiwei and Mufeng take all the blame!

Rong Weiwei, seeing what she was about to say, quickly pulled her aside to interrupt, “Mom, it’s Mufeng who was wrong. He saw some attacking comments online and thought my sister had bought trolls, and he spoke out of anger during the interview. On his behalf, I apologize to my sister. Sister, I’m sorry.”

Look at that, look at what it means to seem like you’ve said nothing when in fact you’ve vilified someone to the extreme. Rong Weiwei’s skills were getting more and more polished.

Directly in front of Li Shengxiao, she admitted that Shi Mufeng had said those things, but she emphasized that it was something he shouldn’t have said, not something nonsensical. In essence, she told Li Shengxiao that five years ago she had an ambiguous relationship with Huang Youde and cheated on Shi Mufeng, but Shi Mufeng should not have exposed her faults in front of the reporters.

What was remarkable about Rong Weiwei was that after saying everything, she had also apologized. It made anyone who wanted to criticize her seem as if they were being unreasonable. Rong Yan watched her performance coldly, not bothering to respond a single word.

“I said, I have no sister.”

Rong Weiwei bit her silver teeth so hard they almost shattered but managed to hold back, biting her lip and staying silent.

It was as if she had been wronged and didn’t want to speak about it.

Jiang Meiqi took a deep breath, suppressing the fury in her heart, and turned to Rong Yan, unable to help saying, “You’ve grown up together since you were kids, Weiwei is also your sister. Mufeng may have said things he shouldn’t have, but Weiwei never did.”

At this moment, Li Shengxiao suddenly stood up, startling both Jiang Meiqi and Rong Weiwei. Just as Jiang Meiqi was about to criticize Rong Yan, she stopped short.

“Mrs. Rong, let me say this once more, Rong Yan is my girlfriend, please remember that!”
