Reborn as His Intellectually Disabled Wife-Chapter 700 - 701: A Slap

Regret, shame, self-blame.

Meng Yue was already weeping inconsolably.

"What, now that you know she’s not your daughter, you’ve come to blame me?" Bai Zhengyuan’s voice carried an unfamiliar jeer, as if he were a different person from the gentle and cultivated one he usually was towards her.

Meng Yue couldn’t accept such sharp words.

"It’s too late for regrets now. Over twenty years have passed, Yuejie is still alive, while that girl’s death only shows that she was simply unlucky!"

"But it was obviously you who harmed her, it was clearly you..." Meng Yue’s voice was broken, and her mind also brought up Tang Wu.

It wasn’t just Tang Xintian.

Even Tang Wu died at their hands.

Meng Yue hadn’t been sure at first, but now, she was almost certain that there must have been a conspiracy behind Tang Wu’s death.

And the next one would be Shi Mei, just mentioned by Uncle Liu.

Meng Yue covered her mouth, her gaze darting around, tears swirling in her eyes.

If they could create one flawless accident, they could manufacture a second one.

She couldn’t let them continue like this.

Bai Yuejie should have been dead long ago.

It wasn’t worth letting one healthy, happy person after another be sacrificed for someone with a disabled body.

Not worth it.

Bai Zhengyuan, noticing her distracted state, snatched her hand and instantly unlocked the phone with her fingerprint.

Just at this moment, Yuan’er’s call came in.

"Zhao Siyan?" Bai Zhengyuan’s eyes suddenly sharpened, "When did you start contacting her?"

"Give it back to me..." Meng Yue tried to grab the phone but before she could touch it, Bai Zhengyuan had moved it away.

Bai Zhengyuan warningly said, "Answer the phone."

The call continued to ring, and Meng Yue tensed up looking at the two characters ’Yuan’er’ on the screen.

Bai Zhengyuan, sensing the change in Meng Yue’s demeanor, said coldly, "Is that what you just told her?"

Meng Yue looked at him without answering.

Seeing this, Bai Zhengyuan answered the call himself and brought it to Meng Yue’s face.

"Hello?" Zhao Siyan’s voice came through, "Xiao Yue?" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Meng Yue said nothing, but kept her eyes on Bai Zhengyuan.

Bai Zhengyuan was also looking at her, his expression dark and ominous.

"Yuan’er," Meng Yue called out, "I’m sorry."

"What?" Zhao Siyan was confused by her apology.

"I’m now with Bai Zhengyuan, and we are discussing the affair of Tiantian from years ago," Meng Yue’s voice trembled, "I know I wronged you back then, and I’ve lived with guilt all these years, so there are some things that I still hope you can know."

"What?" Zhao Siyan asked instinctively.

Meng Yue closed her eyes briefly, then opened them and rapidly said, "Tang Wu’s car accident was Bai Zhengyuan’s doing, just for her heart, and the next one is Shi..."

She spoke swiftly, and by the time Bai Zhengyuan reacted, Meng Yue had already blurted it out.

Fury erupted, and he slapped her fiercely across the face, shouting, "Shut up!"

Bai Zhengyuan’s slap was powerful, sending Meng Yue crashing to the side with a solid smack.

In less than two seconds, blood appeared at the corner of her lips, and her fair complexion swelled visibly at an alarming speed.

The driver was startled, as was Zhao Siyan on the other end of the line.

"Bai Zhengyuan, you actually hit a woman! Xiao Yue, how are you, hello..."

The call was cut off, and Bai Zhengyuan’s face contorted. He grabbed Meng Yue by the collar and his hand tightened around her neck, the veins on the back of his hand bulging.
