he was naturally held by Lin Meng with red eyes for a while. Xiaoyouyou thought that his injury made Mommy worry, and he didn't know at all that he had just come back from the gate of hell, so he sti...When I think of it, I'll do it! This matter can't be delayed at all!

That afternoon, after much deliberation and weighing the pros and cons, Li Yiping took advantage of the excuse to buy clothes for Bingbing and went out. The driver drove the mother and daughter to the shopping mall and then sent them off. Instead of taking her daughter straight to buy clothes, she first took her daughter to a cold drink shop for a cup of cold drink. Then, holding her daughter's hand, she called two taxis and left.

"We can't use the driver from home, I'm afraid if she finds out, she'll stop her."

"Mom, where are we going!" Bingbing asked curiously, confused why her mom had taken her out of the mall when she said they were going shopping for clothes!

Li Yiping touched her face. "You'll know when you get there!"

She just didn't know why, but today Bingbing was unusually talkative, clinging to her and asking where they were going. She really couldn't stand her daughter's incessant questioning, so she could only helplessly explain.

"Mom's taking you to see Uncle Rong, are you happy or not!"

Saying that, he fondly tapped her little nose.

But Bingbing didn't smile. She frowned fiercely and lowered her face.

Li Yiping was taken aback, but she thought that her daughter's appearance was because she had been frightened by Rong Ling last time and was now a little afraid to see him. She didn't speak either; anyway, today was mainly her going to find Rong Ling, and her daughter was just an excuse for her to leave the house.

The car drove slowly toward its destination.

Originally silent Bingbing, weakly opened her mouth. "Mommy, we don't have to go see Uncle Rong, okay!"

"What's wrong!" Li Yiping didn't take it to heart. "Afraid of Uncle" Don't worry, Uncle definitely won't dislike you!"

Bingbing bit her tender lips and finally shook her head heavily, "No, it's not...it's..."

Li Yi-Ping smiled and waited for her daughter to finish speaking, but who knew that Bingbing would actually say something like that.--

"Grandma Zeng said, don't...don't you go looking for Uncle Rong!"

Li Yiping's face changed drastically, and she suddenly grabbed Bingbing's hand, squeezing it tightly. "Bingbing, is this what Grandma Zeng told you! When did this happen!"

Her stern expression made Bingbing shrink her shoulders timidly, but she didn't answer, only pleading softly. "Mom, please don't look for Uncle Rong, Grandma will be unhappy!"

After finishing her statement, she took matters into her own hands and told the driver to take the car back to the shopping mall where they had just been.

“Bingbing!” Li Yiping shouted, first instructing the driver to drive her car and not listen to the child’s nonsense. Turning back, she put on a serious face and held Bingbing's small face in her hands. “Bingbing, why don’t you answer your mother’s question! I am your mother, you should be closest to your mother. Tell your mother, what did Grandma Zeng say to you!”

Bing Bing didn't speak, and Li Yi Ping's face grew even darker. Her tone was always cold. "Bing Bing, so in your heart, Mom is untrustworthy, not as reliable as Grandma Zeng!"

After finishing her words, she suddenly let go of Bingbing, turned cold, and slumped onto the seat. She turned her head and fixed her icy gaze out the car window. Not even a glance was given to Bingbing.

Bing Bing is just a child. Which child wouldn't be afraid of their parents being angry, or of being ignored by their parents

She hurriedly finished explaining everything, but it turned out that Old Mrs. He had indeed started to suspect Li Yiping and chose Bingbing as her spy. She tasked Bingbing with keeping an eye on her mother. If her mother tried to contact Rong Ling, she had to call home immediately. If possible, she also had to stop her mother.

"Mommy, let's just not look for Uncle Rong anymore. Grandma Zeng will be angry. This...this..."

Bing Bing thought for a long time, but couldn't think of the exact words to express it, she could only childishly sum up. "This... is not good!"

Li Yiping felt resentment in her heart. She resented the old woman for using her own child even in such a state. By making Bingbing do this, she was intentionally creating tension between Bingbing and herself. Which daughter would secretly watch her mother, guarding against her mother This kind of thing, once it happens, will happen again and again. Mother and daughter interacting like this, how can they expect any maternal love in the future!

This is simply too much!

Furthermore, knowing such a thing, which mother would not be hurt!

How could an old woman do such a thing She just wants people to watch her, right She could have sent someone else! But why choose Bingbing!

A child so young could do such a thing. How can a child like that grow up healthy!

Her good girl, she's been corrupted!

"Hello Bingbing, Mommy is going to talk with Uncle Rong about something important for the family. Don't worry, Grandma Zeng won't do anything to Mommy, and she won't blame you."

Luckily, the daughter still leaned towards her and didn't keep it a secret all along.

Bingbing furrowed her brow and still looked at Li Yiping with worry. Li Yiping smiled and affectionately pulled her into her arms, holding her close.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

As they neared their destination, Bingbing suddenly covered her stomach and whispered to Li Yiping that she needed to use the restroom, seemingly a bit embarrassed. Li Yiping thought perhaps it was due to having eaten cold drinks earlier and had upset her stomach, not considering anything else. She asked the driver to stop the car for a moment and, with Bingbing, quickly entered a nearby small shopping mall to take care of business.

Bingbing had been in the bathroom for quite a while, but thankfully, when she came out, she just said she had a stomachache and was now fine. Li Yiping felt relieved, took Bingbing back into the car, and started driving again. Just as the car was about to reach its destination, Li Yiping's phone rang. When she picked it up, it was Grandma He calling.

Her heart tightened, she really didn't want to answer, but a phone call from her elders, not answering, she was afraid there would be trouble afterwards. There was no way out, so she answered. As soon as the voice came through, it was a roar.

"Li Yiping, are you trying to go find Rong Ling! What on earth are you thinking Did a donkey kick your brain!"

Li Yiping's heart skipped a beat. She didn't speak.

“Speak up!” the old woman roared there.

Li Yiping bit her lip, a sense of fear creeping into her heart. After all these years, the old woman's authority had always been undeniable. She ruled this house with an iron fist, commanding respect from every generation.

When Old Mrs. He saw that Li Yiping had remained silent for so long, she was furious and snorted coldly. "Come back here immediately! If you return, I won't hold this incident against you!"

Really not pursuing this!

Li Yiping doesn't believe it!

Gritting her teeth, enduring it for a while, she thought about it for a moment and let out a low sigh. “Grandma, I do this for our family!”

Since things have come to this, we both understand what the other wants. So, let's just be straightforward!

Old Mrs. He went mad over there. "Bullsh*t! It's all for our family, you're harming our family! You woman, we've raised you in the He family for so many years, it was truly a waste. When things get serious, you betray us, do you even consider yourself a member of the He family anymore! Li Yiping, I order you to come back immediately. Family matters are none of your concern, they shouldn't be your concern. You just need to behave properly as our young mistress!"

"Grandma—" After a pause, Li Yiping softly sighed, "Ai—." Then she murmured apologetically, “Sorry, Grandma!”

He hung up the phone as soon as he spoke.

"You, woman!" Old Mrs. He was exasperated. "Just going to him like that and saying... do you really think he'd believe you! Even if he did, when the time comes, he's going to retaliate against our He family! You are a member of the He family, so when that happens, there's no escaping it! You foolish woman, are you planning on ruining yourself!"

"I know!" That's why I said, it's better to sacrifice most of Ho's assets than to lose the foundation of the Ho family.

"You――" Old Mrs. He was taken aback. Unexpectedly, this daughter-in-law had thought everything through, and could even be so ruthless as to do something that would harm herself. This woman, she wasn't simple at all!

It's true, it's not easy. The old woman thought back to how Li Yiping, with her meager fortune, managed to marry her grandson back then. Just that alone proved her extraordinariness. At first, she had objected, but that woman was capable and made her grandson insist on marrying her. Ever since she entered the family, she has been careful and reserved, shrinking herself like a little bird. She does whatever elders tell her to do, seemingly without much of her own opinion. This way, years have passed in a blink. Slowly, she had put down her guard and forgotten that this young woman was actually quite capable!

Thinking of this, the old woman's eyelids twitched violently. Since intimidation wouldn't work, she could only coax and persuade her. He Yaya had already been sent abroad, and Rong Ling's sperm was also obtained early on. After planning for so long, how could she let such a young woman ruin her grand plan!

"Pingping!" The old woman suddenly softened her voice and changed her address to her nickname, with a kind smile and a sigh. "Perhaps it's true that Grandma went too far this time, but everything can be discussed. You are already part of the He family now, so you should always consider the interests of our family. Grandma did this not just for the He family, but also for all of you descendants. I am just an old woman, my foot is already in the coffin! What good are those empty titles and wealth to me Just try to understand Grandma's feelings. Even if you don't want Grandma to do this, you should discuss it properly at home! How could you be so reckless as to go find Rong Ling! That man is ruthless and cruel; what if he does something that ruins our He family! Alright, Grandma will put this aside for now. You come back first, and we'll all gather together to think of a solution. I'm sure we can always come up with something!"

Li Yiping fell silent.

The old lady was anxious, wishing she could beat this ungrateful wretch to death. But now she could only restrain her anger and make her voice softer. "Pingping, let's not talk about things far away. Just think about Xiaoshu and Bingbing. You, who are both a wife and a mother, have to think about your husband and daughter. Don't just push our He family into the fire pit like this! Come back. Grandma knows that what she did was a bit too hasty. Just come back first, and then I'll call your father, mother, and Xiaoshu over. We'll discuss it together properly, okay"

Li Yiping's eyes flashed, and after the old woman affectionately called her "Pingping" once again, she softly replied with an "um"!

The old woman's temple dripped with a bead of sweat, but it was due to her nervousness just now. She let out a long sigh, her breath carrying a hint of relief. "Then come back soon, grandma will be waiting for you at home!"

Li Yiping let out another "mm" and hung up the phone.

Baby Bingbing had been quietly listening with her ears perked the whole time. As soon as she saw her mother hang up the phone, she immediately clapped her hands and beamed with joy. "That's great, that's wonderful…"

Ke Li Yiping's face, however, showed not a trace of joy. She looked at Bingbing coldly, then suddenly reached out and swiftly snatched the small lady bag from her back.

"Mom!" Bingbing cried out in fright.

But then Li Yiping swiftly unzipped her lady's purse, reached in with a large hand, and rummaged through it thoroughly. When she pulled her hand out, there was a small smartphone in her palm!

Bingbing narrowed her eyes, a little scared, because Li Yiping's expression was very frightening.

"Wasn't it given to you by your great-grandmother!"

Bingbing didn't dare to nod or shake her head, she just looked at her mother with a little fear.

Li Yiping tensed her face and raised her hand, about to slap. But when the slap was about to land on Bingbing's fair and delicate face, she suddenly stopped.

The daughter, with red-rimmed eyes and a face full of shock, looked at her. Mother and daughter were connected by heart, how could she bear to actually strike her like that!

How did the daughter treat her again!

A pang of pain struck Li Yiping's heart. She withdrew her hand and leaned back against the car seat, exhausted. She let out a tired sigh. "Bingbing, you have really disappointed your mother!"

This remark was even more serious than slapping Bingbing in the face!

Bingbing's little mouth trembled, and she cried out "Wow," bursting into tears. As she cried, she rushed towards Li Yiping.

"Woooo, Mommy, I was wrong, I was wrong, Mommy, woooooo..."

Li Yiping, however, ignored him. Her heart was cold as ice. Her daughter had lied to her. She thought she had persuaded her daughter, but her daughter still stood by her great-grandmother's side. Even making up an excuse of a stomachache, she ran to the restroom. Li Yiping wanted to follow her, but her daughter complained that the restroom was smelly and drove her out, asking her to wait outside. At that time, Li Yiping felt a little sweet inside, thinking her daughter was thoughtful. But who knew, while huddled in the restroom, her daughter called her great-grandmother.

This daughter of mine, she truly is something else! Her schemes, her strategies, her artful diplomacy—they are truly remarkable! She's incredibly talented. But it’s just... there’s not a single thing about this that feels like what a child should do, what a good daughter should do!

Her heart aches!

My own daughter, who I carried for ten months and gave birth to after much hardship, was ultimately betrayed by her own design.

Ouch!

My heart aches!

She did not let the driver change course and continued driving forward as before.

On the phone, she had agreed to Old Mrs. He, but it was just to appease her and prevent her from causing a scene before Rong Ling arrived. Old Mrs. He's last words seemed heartfelt and touching. If this were said by an ordinary woman, she would have believed it and gone home obediently. But after staying in this family for so long, she knew very well that Old Mrs. He was always the kind of person who "said one thing and did another." Once she made a decision, she never changed her mind! She wasn't a three-year-old child who could be easily fooled by Old Mrs. He.

I'm afraid that once she goes back, it will be difficult for her to come out again!

By then, I'm afraid even communication with the outside world will be cut off!

Because, this is definitely something the old lady could do!

With a cold face, she sneered and curled her lips. Her daughter was still crying beside her, but she didn't comfort her. This daughter needed to learn a lesson; otherwise, she would end up like her high-flying aunt!

Being the child of a large family, Bingbing cried loudly in the car, heartbroken. But after getting out of the car, she tightly held onto Li Yiping's hand, biting her lip and snifling, trying hard to hold back tears. Only clear tears occasionally overflowed from her eye sockets.

Li Yiping still hasn't tried to comfort her!

As she wished, she saw Rong Ling.

Rong Ling first glanced at her, then his gaze fell on Bingbing's body, lingering for a moment, but then turned away. He—didn't even try to comfort Bingbing, nor did he ask why she was crying!

This completely different situation from before, falling into Li Yiping's eyes, made her even more certain that she had made the right decision!

Holding her daughter's hand, Li Yiping sat down. She didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point. Rong Ling didn't show any signs of shock, but the further she listened, the colder her face became. Her eyes were dark and unreadable, yet they sent a chill down one's spine.

Li Yiping swallowed nervously, forcing herself to continue. "I'm telling you this because I want a good future for Bingbing and her father. Rongling, I'm not going to beat around the bush. People are selfish, and I came here hoping that when the time comes, you'll let our family go and give us He family a way to survive! I know with your abilities, it would be no problem to bring down half of the He family. And I don't care about that. If the He family falls, I think the old lady will probably behave herself as well. That way, there wouldn't be much danger."

With wide eyes, she forced herself to meet Rong Ling's gaze, his black eyes seeming bottomless pits. "I'm telling you this for a way out, Rong Ling. Tell me, can this give the He family a chance at life!"

Rong Ling's lips curled into a sneer, revealing a chilling smile.

Li Yiping gritted her teeth fiercely and quickly increased her bet. "I came here with my grandmother's back, but later she found out. Grandma threatened and coaxed me to go back, but I still refused. I took the risk to tell you all this, first because it wasn't easy, second because my heart is sincere. After going back, my grandma will definitely not let me off. And there's Bingbing—"

She pulled Bingbing, who was still sobbing quietly beside her, closer. "Grandma definitely won't let Bingbing off easy. Rongling, I know Bingbing did some foolish things and disappointed you, made you heartbroken. But the child is still young, innocent. Those who are at fault are the adults! She came to me crying today because she was under a lot of pressure. Grandma always loved her, but in the end, her heart belongs to you, Uncle! Children will make mistakes, but deep down, she knows who's good to her!"

This is why Bingbing cried, but she didn't comfort her. Even worse, from beginning to end, she didn't give Bingbing the slightest bit of kindness! On the way in the car, she had already factored her daughter's tears into the plan. As long as there was even a slight possibility, this mother would always try to secure more opportunities for her daughter!

Upon hearing this, Rongling seemed a little moved. After all, Bingbing's eyes were red and swollen from crying, her tears were real!

But his moved, was only that!

He looked at Li Yiping coldly, and said unfeelingly: "Actually, whether you tell me or not, the old lady's plan will not be realized!" Because he had already arranged people around Lin Meng.

Li Yiping quietly clenched her back, hastily rebutting. "But in this world, it's not about fearing ten thousand things, but fearing one thing out of ten thousand! Isn't that right Old Madam has experienced so many years of wind and rain, when it comes to methods, she definitely has ways that are hard to guard against!"

She had to get Rong Lingcheng to accept her feelings, or else this trip would be a complete failure, and she'd end up losing everything!

Rong Ling's gaze flickered and she nodded slightly.

He's not clueless either.

"I've got it noted!"

Li Yiping gave a wry smile, no longer concealing her destitute state. "Rong Ling, give me a promise! You know that with my status, marrying into the He family was already somewhat ostracized. After doing this, I will face what, you should have an idea in your heart. So, give me a clear promise, just out of pity for me!"

For some reason, when he heard this, Rong Ling's mind flashed with Lin Meng. The pitiful look she used to have, the humble begging, the silent tears...

His heart felt as if it had been pierced by something.

The stabbing pain, it was only for a moment and then disappeared quickly.

He closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them quickly.

As you wish!

A low, yet chilling promise.

Li Yiping, as if a burden had been lifted, her eyes slightly flushed, with a single tear rolling down. She wasn't sure whether it was guilt or joy that caused the tear. She reached out suddenly and quickly wiped it away.

She seems unwilling to let people see her vulnerability!

"Thank you!" she stood up, holding Bingbing's hand, her head hung low, revealing a silent softness. Bingbing choked back tears and also lowered her round little head.

Rong Ling frowned.

"Let's go back later!" he said. "It should be better if Zhan Su stays with you."

Li Yiping smiled faintly and hummed softly.

"Bingbing, say goodbye to Uncle!"

Bīngbing raised her head, choked back a sob, and said in a shaky voice, "Goodbye." Rónglíng also replied with a "goodbye," but he didn't stay. However, as Li Yiping walked out of the room, she felt a sense of complete calm settle over her.

As expected, she revealed her background and her feeling of being out of place after marrying into a wealthy family, which won Rong Ling's favor. This wasn't because Rong Ling was kind-hearted and sympathized with her. In reality, Rong Ling wasn't a good person. He changed his attitude towards her and showed her a little concern, suggesting that she wait for her husband to finish work before returning home together. This was actually because she resembled Lin Meng.

Because Lin Meng's family is also poor, if she marries Rong Ling, the Rong family, that big clan and wealthy family, could it possibly be so easy to accept Lin Meng! Rong Ling is smart enough, he will inevitably see Lin Meng's shadow in her.

This man truly cares about Lin Meng! So, loving her also means loving everything around her. He should be more tolerant and show her some sympathy!

She boldly guessed it and went all in!

And finally, she -- won the bet!

She couldn't help but envy Lin Meng. She was just envious for no reason!
