Chapter 663: Chapter 663
"Yeah, Mom, how did you find the second sister?"
Zhao Han chimed in, sounding a bit concerned. She, after all, was occupied with work and observing mourning at the Zhang family, so she didn't have much contact with Zhao Yan.
Of course, since Zhao Han now had Demon Liu, and he was Zhao Yan's husband, she felt a bit embarrassed deep down about facing Zhao Yan.
Lu Yumei, however, gave Liu Zhizhong and her eldest daughter a look, with a slight hint of mockery.
"You lot, always busy with work or observing mourning, running off to Provincial City or attending to leaders, when do you have time to think about these things? I'm the one who's free; just followed Zhao Yan in my car and found out, didn't I?"
At those words, Liu Zhizhong and Zhao Han were left speechless. It seemed to make sense, didn't it?
Of course, Liu Zhizhong had always been keen on catching an adulterer. Now, whether he knew or not, he pretended ignorance, as if he had never sought out Zhao Yan, and even said, "Ah, Mrs. Lu is right, it's you, the more experienced one, who thinks of the children! Always concerned about the kids' marital lives, little family harmony..." Follow current novels on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⟡𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕥⟡𝕟𝕖𝕥
This oddly toned praise left Lu Yumei caught between laughter and tears, feeling a bit shy, as she scolded with a laugh, "I'm doing this for your own good! How can I stand by when you and your wife are all day long? Ah..."
In the end, she just shook her head, sighing before continuing, "It turns out Zhao Yan is obstinate, unappreciative, and doesn't care about anything anymore. She said that her marriage to Liu Zhizhong was a mistake arranged by her father, that she doesn't accept it now, completely rejects and refuses it, and she'll never return to the Zhao family again."
"She again stressed that she's not my daughter and doesn't want to have a marital relationship with Zhizhong anymore. Just let it be a separation for now, and in two years, she'll file for divorce."
"At her home, things got quite ugly, and emotions ran high. I slapped her, breaking two of her vases, ah..."
Lu Yumei finally shook her head, still looking somewhat distressed, as she took a deep drink of her tea.
Liu Zhizhong and Zhao Han exchanged glances, not daring to say anything.
Zhao Yan had been hit...
Zhao Han remembered that as children, her mother had never hit her sister, but rather, she had been the one to receive more beatings.
How could she have resorted to violence if she hadn't been truly desperate?
But it looked like Zhao Yan was truly determined not to return to the Zhao family and not to have Liu Zhizhong as her husband anymore.
Zhao Han felt a mix of joy and worries in her heart. Women are just that complicated.
After putting down her cup, Lu Yumei said, "I feel going over to persuade her was a foolish act. In hindsight, I regret the violence. I've apologized through a message, but she hasn't replied, not once. Let it be, then. The mother-daughter relationship is at its end. You two drink up; I'm going back to my room..."
Saying so, she walked away without lingering, very much in her own style.
Liu Zhizhong and Zhao Han looked at each other again, neither knowing how to hold her back.
Perhaps, Lu Yumei needed time to heal her psychological wounds, which, perhaps, were beyond repair...
After she left, Zhao Han couldn't contain a little excitement; she immediately picked up her fruit tea cup and swiftly sat down on Liu Zhizhong's lap.
With this move, her fragrant and supple body, her round and bouncy buttocks, really stoked Liu Zhizhong's fiery desires.
However, Zhao Han, wrapping her arms around Liu Zhizhong's neck, whispered, "This is not too good now, huh? My mom, because of you, has really hardened my sister's heart..."
Liu Zhizhong laughed gloomily, one arm wrapped around her waist and the other caressing her snow-white thigh, said, "I really don't understand the actual situation with Zhao Yan's background. You're her elder sister, do you know? In light of what just happened, and with your mom in a bad mood, we didn't dare to say much or ask."
