Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 744 - 661: Making a Big Scene at the Door

"What?" Li Si was truly at a loss for words; how did any of this have anything to do with Leng Ning?

"Sisi, don’t you think it’s both infuriating and ridiculous?" Mrs. Leng vented indignantly as she continued to act out, "She thinks I don’t see through her little schemes?

Isn’t it just about trying to disgust our family, making us all uncomfortable? And who is Yin Xian supposed to represent? Let’s not even start with the things his sister has done!

Just talking about his ex-wife Ye Duowei—her relationship with you—how uncomfortable does that make people feel?

At Xiao Ning’s engagement party, Yan Xuefeng already caused a scene once. Do they think it’s funny for our family to keep being humiliated?

Do they really think we’re such pushovers? Who Cold Mo dates or breaks up with—what does any of that have to do with Leng Ning?"

With that, she pointed a finger at Leng Ning and reprimanded, "And what about you? Why are you meddling needlessly with Cold Mo? If not, could others have caught wind of these rumors?"

Leng Ning wriggled uncomfortably as she explained, "I just thought I’d have a chat with Cold Mo—it never crossed my mind it would lead to this chaos!"

Had she known in advance that she’d get entangled in these issues, she’d never have gone, no matter what!

Mrs. Leng cast her a disdainful glance but refrained from saying more to her, continuing her tirade: "The things she says—what kind of nonsense is this? Like some shrew yelling at the door, making passersby who have no idea think it’s all true!

That’s why I lost it. I’ve endured her for this long out of respect for your Uncle.

No matter what people say, even though Cold Mohao went inside, your Uncle never uttered a single word of opposition.

But look at the ridiculous antics Zeng Qiuping has pulled! During Mo Si International Furniture’s grand opening, that fiasco she caused—did she think I wouldn’t find out? I heard afterward that those schemes were prompted by Zhang Shan!

I just spilled everything out—let’s see how she tries to wiggle out of this one!"

Mrs. Leng spoke until her mouth was dry. After taking a sip of water, she continued, her tone laced with satisfaction: "Sisi, Xiao Ning, you won’t believe this coincidence! Zhang Shan’s mother-in-law just happened to be among the crowd watching the drama unfold.

She immediately went up and tore into Zeng Qiuping—utterly livid! Had it not been for her, Zhang Shan might never have been led astray in the first place. Now the situation has deteriorated: her son divorced Zhang Shan, and her mother-in-law is left caring for the child!

She really lashed out harshly—Zeng Qiuping’s face got scratched with several marks!"

"Zhang Shan got divorced?" Li Si hadn’t been following along, so it was all news to her.

Mrs. Leng nodded, "She did! I heard it from her mother-in-law shouting about it! After Zhang Shan was released, the two secretly got divorced. Her mother-in-law found out only later. A perfectly fine household is now broken up—the child looks so pitiable!"

"Wasn’t Zhang Shan’s mother-in-law always disapproving of her?" Li Si interjected, recalling how at the postnatal care center Zhang Shan’s mother-in-law seemed keen on criticizing her at every turn, like she was eager for her son and daughter-in-law to divorce.

Mrs. Leng held Li Si’s hand and sighed, "That was certainly the case back then! Her mother-in-law was openly dissatisfied with Zhang Shan! But, you know how elders are—what they don’t like, they love to nag about. But once the divorce actually happens, the adults cope, but the children are the ones who suffer. Her mother-in-law must feel awful deep down!" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Li Si arched a brow but said nothing—Mrs. Leng’s words were shrouded in deeper meaning.

"Afterward? Mom, how did you end up so enraged?" Leng Ning had been called over by Mrs. Leng after the crowd had dispersed.

She had only managed to ask a few questions before Li Si returned, so she hadn’t heard all the details yet.

Mrs. Leng grunted coldly, "That shameless Zeng Qiuping had the audacity to shout that our family wronged theirs!

But how could she even have the face to say so? If not for Mochen’s strong fortune, he’d have already been schemed to death by Cold Mohao.

So I seriously argued back with her. Then what really made me furious was her shouting..."

The thought of saying it made Mrs. Leng, as a mother-in-law, hesitate—it didn’t feel quite appropriate. But seeing Li Si’s calm expression, she paused for a moment and then decided to say it anyway: "She actually dared to claim that even if you dated Yin Xian in the past, it wouldn’t mean anything!"

Li Si was utterly speechless, seething with anger: "She’s outright slandering me! When did I ever date Yin Xian?"

The sheer audacity of such claims made Li Si grit her teeth in hatred. How could she fling around such baseless accusations?

When had she ever been romantically involved with Yin Xian?

Seeing Li Si’s reaction, Mrs. Leng felt a bit relieved—she hadn’t believed that Li Si and Yin Xian had ever dated.

Back then, her son and Li Si were constantly together during that time. She had even taken Li Si along to Yin Xian’s engagement party.

And then there was that odd moment with Yin Xian’s sister, Yin Qi—she had only learned of her identity later, but Yin Qi had out of nowhere come asking questions about her relationship with Li Si.

Mrs. Leng lightly patted Li Si’s hand in reassurance: "Sisi, don’t worry, Mom believes in you! That’s why I directly fought her over it. How dare she smear your name? Isn’t this just tarnishing our reputation? Moreover, she was outright bullying us at the door.

So I fought back! Before Xiao Ning arrived, I had already called your Grandpa.

I didn’t go into too many details—I was worried it might upset your Grandpa too much. I only mentioned that Zeng Qiuping came over causing trouble and that Yin Xian absolutely cannot be with Cold Mo.

The more I think about it, the angrier I get. It hasn’t even escalated yet, but she, Zeng Qiuping, dares to storm our doorstep spouting lies and stirring up trouble.

Should something definitive really happen, how would we face it in the future?"

Leng Ning pressed on eagerly, "What did Grandpa say?"

Li Si also looked at Mrs. Leng with concern, "Grandpa was okay after you talked to him, right?"

The elderly man had been dealing with elevated blood pressure recently.

Mrs. Leng smiled, "He’s fine! Grandpa definitely won’t agree to this! You can all stop worrying! Let’s see what Zeng Qiuping does next!"

Leng Ning clapped her hands with joy, "That’s the best outcome! Mom, otherwise I’d just die from how awkward this is!"

She couldn’t even begin to imagine what it would be like to become related to Yin Xuan.

Just the thought of being connected to those two made her feel unbearable.

Still, thinking of Cold Mo, she felt a slight pang of guilt. After all, to her, the reserved Cold Mo finally found someone she seemed to care about, only for the relationship to end.

"But Mom, won’t Cold Mo be deeply hurt by this?"

Mrs. Leng considered for a moment before responding, "Not necessarily! If Cold Mo really married Yin Xian, then she’d truly suffer.

Beyond that, didn’t Zeng Qiuping herself say it? It was Cold Mo who decided to break up with Yin Xian! Your Grandpa simply exerted some pressure!"

Li Si silently mused that Zeng Qiuping’s motives likely boiled down to two main points.

First, to annoy them all. Second, as Yin Xian’s overall conditions weren’t bad, if he did marry Cold Mo, not only would Cold Mo have settled down, but it would also give Grandpa a reason to assign stocks as dowry.

But Zeng Qiuping’s mistake was her arrogance—believing that everyone should operate based on her whims.

Then she dared to come storming into their home making a grand scene? The question lingered—how did she even come to the conclusion that Li Si had dated Yin Xian?

Li Si speculated it was likely someone had said something to Zeng Qiuping, which she twisted to suit her narrative. Given Zeng Qiuping’s disposition, upon learning Cold Mo had interacted with Yin Xian’s ex-wife Ye Duowei, was it even possible she’d let it slide? Surely she’d have gone to confront Ye Duowei, and perhaps Ye Duowei had spread the rumor out of spite.

This time, Li Si’s guess was spot on!
