The Stepmother's Counterattack: Raising a Child in a Bygone Era-Chapter 430 - 429: The Original Partner Catches the Affair

Chapter 430: Chapter 429: The Original Partner Catches the Affair

"Why did you come without telling me first? I could have picked you up."

Qiang Tai, with a guilty conscience, tried to close the bedroom door to prevent his wife, Fu Xianzhi, from seeing the woman in the room.

Fu Xianzhi came prepared, and immediately started scratching Qiang Tai, who was shirtless; his pale flesh soon bore over a dozen red marks.

"You bastard Jiang, I’m at home taking care of the kids and the elderly while you’re out having a grand time with your whores. I won’t let this go today!"

Qiang Tai howled in pain and instinctively tried to hide inside the room.

Sun Feifei realized that things were going south and wrapped herself in a blanket, jumping off the bed to find a place to hide, but it was too late. Fu Xianzhi and a group of strong-looking women had already charged in.

"You little slut, I’ve finally caught you. Go, beat her for me!"

At Fu Xianzhi’s command, the women who came with her immediately surrounded Sun Feifei and started hitting her with hands and feet.

Sun Feifei instinctively covered her head but didn’t expect the blanket covering her body to be yanked away, revealing her naked form.

She screamed, trying to grab the blanket to cover herself, but the next second it was thrown out of the window.

She climbed back on the bed to grab a pillow for cover but was pulled back by her hair.

"Filthy bitch, rotten whore, shameless slut, acting all seductive, luring my man. Keep behaving like a whore now!"

"Desperate for a man, huh? Shameless bitch!"

Fu Xianzhi aimed for the tender spots on Sun Feifei’s body, pinching and pulling.

The others joined in, pulling hair and slapping her face, their mouths filled with an assortment of dirty words.

Sun Feifei shrieked repeatedly, calling out for Qiang Tai and begging for help.

The more she screamed, the harder Fu Xianzhi hit her; her once pale body quickly started to resemble marbled meat, bruised in shades of blue and purple.

Meanwhile, Qiang Tai had long fled with his clothes in hand.

Just then, Sun Feifei’s relatives and friends also poured into the hotel room.

Seeing Sun Feifei naked and being beaten on the ground, they all stood there, dumbfounded.

They had received a message to come over and collect mooncakes.

"Stop, what are you doing? Stop it! You’re going to seriously hurt someone!"

A relative couldn’t watch anymore and stepped forward to intervene.

When Fu Xianzhi learned that these were all relatives and friends of the Sun Family, she immediately stood with her hands on her hips and publicly shamed Sun Feifei.

Now, the looks from the relatives and friends turned from sympathy to scorn and disgust.

Having an affair with another man, caught in the act by the wife, was utterly disgraceful!

Sun Feifei was overwhelmed with shame and embarrassment, scurrying under the bed like a rat to avoid exposing herself.

She was completely naked, not even wearing underwear.

Fu Xianzhi kicked Sun Feifei repeatedly, "You shameless, despicable slut, if you dare seduce my husband again, I’ll strip you naked and throw you on the street!"

After venting her anger, Fu Xianzhi left with her entourage.

The relatives and friends from the Sun Family also left, one after another.

They didn’t get any mooncakes, but they got their fill of drama.

Sun Feifei didn’t dare to crawl out from under the bed until the room was empty. She shakily picked up her clothes from the floor and started putting them on.

She wasn’t cold, but in pain.

Fu Xianzhi had been ruthless; her whole body ached everywhere.

When she finally got dressed and walked out of the hotel room, she found the corridor still crowded with people, including hotel staff and guests.

As soon as they saw her coming out of the room, everyone looked at her with contempt, whispering and pointing.

Sun Feifei covered her face with her bag, hurried towards the stairs, and tried to escape from this shameful place.

"Pah! After doing such a shameless thing, she still knows to be ashamed?"

Someone spat fiercely at her retreating figure.

...

Around the corner of the hallway, Pei Ziheng watched the direction where Sun Feifei disappeared with a slight smirk on his lips.

Shi Yizheng stood next to him, muttering softly, "Who knows who told his wife to catch the cheater—those old ladies beaten Sun Feifei pretty badly; they’ve nearly flayed a layer of her skin off."

"She deserves it. Those who bully my mother will never end up well."

Hearing this, Shi Yizheng couldn’t help but feel secretly glad that he was on Pei Ziheng’s side.

From the years he had known him, he understood too well how this seemingly harmless and handsome young man could be so scheming and ruthless on the inside.

Across from the hotel.

Through the car window, Zhuang Xueqi watched as Sun Feifei fled from the hotel in a disheveled state, driving away in a Xiali car, a hint of scornful disdain flickering in her eyes.

Seated beside her, Fu Xianzhi’s face was alight with satisfaction, "Mrs. Ning, I owe you a big thanks for tipping me off this time, otherwise I wouldn’t have known how long I’d be kept in the dark."

"Don’t mention it. Such shameless trash, ruining other people’s marriages and families, deserves to be condemned by everyone."

"Exactly! She can’t get a man of her own, so she goes around seducing others. Just wait and see, I won’t let her off so easily!"

Informing Fu Xianzhi to catch the adulterer in the act was Zhuang Xueqi’s method of teaching Sun Feifei a lesson.

As for the relatives of Sun Family showing up at the doorstep to witness Sun Feifei getting caught in the act, that was Pei Ziheng’s doing.

It just so happened that these two events coincided.

Pei Ziheng’s intention was to ruin Sun Feifei’s reputation and make it impossible for her to stay in Fengcheng.

As long as Sun Feifei left Fengcheng, she wouldn’t have the chance to bully his mother anymore.

...

Shi Yizheng parked his motorcycle and turned to Pei Ziheng, who had just hopped off the back seat, "It’s late; let me take you home."

"No need, it’s just a few steps away."

Pei Ziheng declined indifferently and hastened his steps toward his own house.

Shi Yizheng stood watching until Pei Ziheng entered the Pei Family’s gates; only then did he push his motorcycle into his own home.

He had moved to this neighborhood earlier this year, renting the house that Shen Mingzhu had bought for Pei Ziheng.

The two homes were less than a hundred meters apart.

This made it much more convenient for the two to meet and discuss matters regularly.

...

When Pei Ziheng entered the living room and saw the two large suitcases in front of the sofa, he paused, then ran excitedly to the master bedroom.

"Mom, you’re back?!"

Shen Mingzhu had just turned around when Pei Ziheng threw himself into her arms.

She put her daughter on the bed and bent over to hug her, "I just got back. Son, did you miss Mom?"

"Mhm, I did."

Although Pei Ziheng’s face still had a hint of shyness, his words were more abundant than before, showing a newfound ability to express his emotions.

"Mom missed you so much too!"

Shen Mingzhu lowered her head, gently touching her forehead to her son’s, her eyes brimming with a tender smile.

"Mom~ hug."

Feeling left out, Guoguo pouted and stretched her arms eagerly toward Shen Mingzhu.

Shen Mingzhu reached out to embrace her daughter, holding both children, one on each side, "Mom brought back gifts for you, shall we go to the living room to see if you like them?"

"Mhm."

"Okay~"

Guoguo clapped her hands joyfully.

Shen Mingzhu picked up her daughter and held her, the other hand being taken by her son, as the mother and children happily went to the living room for the presents.

...

In the night, a champagne-colored phantom car coursed along the Mountain Road like a ghost.

Yan Jing turned to look at Yan Su, her gaze teasing, "What do you think of the second young master of the Li family?"

"Sis, he’s not suitable for me; he’s much younger than I am."

Yan Jing raised an eyebrow, "Just four years younger, that’s nothing. Compared to family background and character, age is the least important factor."

Yan Su still shook her head, "I don’t feel that way about him."

Hearing this, Yan Jing didn’t force the issue and patted the back of her hand to comfort her, "Then let’s forget about him. I’ll help you look for someone more suitable."

After a pause, she added, "If you have someone you like, you can also bring him back for us to meet."

Clearly not wanting to delve further into the topic, Yan Su looked out the car window and seemed to recall something, turning back.

"Sis, thank you."

"Thank me for what?"

Yan Su replied, "Thank you for being willing to help Mingzhu."

Yan Jing smiled, "Ordering mooncakes from her had nothing to do with your favor."

Meeting Yan Su’s puzzled look, Yan Jing spoke in a composed voice—
