She Lost Memory Before the Divorce-Chapter 136 - 0

Chapter 136 -0136

Sheng Xueqin was completely baffled; she had never imagined that her beloved cousin would side with a stranger to scheme against her.

Huo Tingyang watched as Sheng Xueqin, overwhelmed with rage and at a loss, a cold smile on his face.

“Surprised?”

“No, it can’t be, Xueqian wouldn’t dare—”

“Then why don’t you go and ask your dear sister if she dares or not?”

Sheng Xueqin bit her lower lip so hard she was nearly bleeding.

“Huo Tingyang, I will figure this out myself, and don’t even think about trying to drive a wedge between us.

You’ve achieved your goal, now delete the photos and videos from your phone!”

Huo Tingyang’s face was the picture of innocence, as if he couldn’t understand what she was saying.

“What photos and videos? I don’t understand.”

“You—you want to keep threatening me?”

“I’m just giving myself a way out. Oh, I’d advise you not to waste your time on me; isn’t your grandfather still in the hospital undergoing emergency treatment? Aren’t you going to see him?”

Grinding her teeth, Sheng Xueqin glared ferociously at Huo Tingyang before heading to the hospital.

The Sheng family patriarch was out of danger thanks to timely resuscitation. When Sheng Xueqin arrived, Sheng Xueqian was sitting by the bedside, showcasing every possible considerate and filial gesture.

“Ah, in the past, grandpa always felt you were the troublemaker, always lecturing you. Now it seems, your sister isn’t as worry-free as you are.”

“Grandfather, please don’t take sister’s matters to heart. She just got confused for a moment, she… sister?”

Looking up, Sheng Xueqian saw her cousin standing at the door, wiping her tears as she stood up.

“Sister, are you okay? What exactly happened? How could you—”

With a “smack,”

Sheng Xueqian received a resounding slap.

“Xueqin, what are you doing?”

The Sheng family patriarch was startled, and Sheng Xueqian, clutching her face, looked at her cousin in disbelief, tears streaming down her face, pitiful and innocent.

“Sister, what’s wrong? Why did you hit me?”

Seeing her pitiful appearance only fueled Sheng Xueqin’s anger even more.

After all her calculations, she never thought she would raise an ingrate!

“You still have the nerve to ask why I hit you? Sheng Xueqian, I truly underestimated you!”

Just as the Sheng family members and Shen Zichu, who had just finished a consultation with several specialists, were approaching, they heard the quarrel inside the room and quickly entered.

“What’s going on here? What are you two sisters fighting about?”

Sheng Yunwen entered with a stern tone, and Sheng Xueqian seeing everyone, cried even more pitifully.

“Uncle, I don’t know what I did to make my sister so angry that she slapped me.”

Upon hearing his daughter had been slapped, Sheng Yunwu frowned involuntarily.

“Xueqin, what’s going on? Why on earth did you hit your sister? Is there something that can’t be discussed properly?”

Sheng Xueqin scoffed coldly.

“Discuss properly? You ask her what wonderful things she has done. She colluded with outsiders to scheme against me, making me lose all face in the Huo Family!”

Upon witnessing this scene, Shen Zichu quickly found an excuse to slip away. He had no interest in listening to this sort of thing. He couldn’t even attend the Huo Family elder’s birthday banquet today due to a very important surgery, so it was probably better to know less about such gossip—after all, curiosity killed the cat.

“Xueqian, what did you do?”

When Sheng Yunwu asked this, Sheng Xueqian became even more anxious to defend herself.

“Dad, I really didn’t do anything. I don’t know what sister is talking about.

Sister, what exactly happened? Did you hear something from someone else? How could I possibly collude with outsiders to scheme against you?”

“You still deny it? If it wasn’t for you, how could I have ended up in room 1808? If you weren’t in cahoots with Huo Tingyang, who else could it be? Who else could get close to me?”

“Sister, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Wasn’t it you who said you had arranged with Huo Tingyang to frame Mu Lan? I really don’t know why it ended up being you and him. How could I have the audacity to do that? Besides, I clearly left after taking you back to your room. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Uncle.”

Although he couldn’t grasp the ins and outs of the situation, Sheng Yunwen’s face was already looking extremely grim.

“Xueqin, what exactly is going on? Is what Xueqian saying true? Did you collude with that illegitimate child from the Huo Family?”

Sheng Xueqin’s face turned cold as she watched Sheng Xueqian cry with tears streaming down her face; she sneered.

“Well done, I’ve really underestimated you. At such a young age, you’re already so scheming. You’ve been lying low by my side, just waiting for an opportunity, and now you’ve seized it, haven’t you? Do you think that by doing this, you can change anything? Weigh yourself first; don’t think that you can replace me so easily.

Everything I achieved in the Sheng Family is due to my ability, something I fought for bit by bit up to this point! It’s not something a nobody like you can just step in and replace. You’d best recognize this reality.”

Sheng Xueqin was so furious that she spoke without thinking, not even caring that there were elders present, speaking in a way that couldn’t be more unpleasant.

This was especially true for Sheng Yunwu. Even if he knew that his daughter had no business talent, what father would allow others to speak of his child in such a manner?

To say nothing of the fact that the Sheng Family wasn’t even in Sheng Xueqin’s hands yet, and yet, she was so arrogant.

“Xueqin, weren’t your words a bit too harsh? Big brother, over these years, we may not have exhausted ourselves to death for the family, but we’ve been diligently serving nonetheless.

What do you mean by these words, Xueqin? Are you looking down on your uncle?”

Sheng Yunwen quickly tried to calm the situation.

“Second brother, Xueqin didn’t mean that. Don’t misunderstand, she was just angry in the heat of the moment.”

“Uncle, I really didn’t do those things, I swear, I really didn’t. I’ve always stood by my sister. How could I possibly do such things? Grandpa, Grandpa, you believe me, right? I really didn’t do anything.”

The elderly Mr. Sheng, lying on the sickbed, looked at the drama unfolding before him and felt his blood pressure rising, just when he had managed to get it under control.

“Xueqin, do you have any evidence that your sister did this? Grandpa always thought you were an independent person who knew right from wrong, but today you’ve disappointed me greatly.

Not only did you cause such a scene, but you’re taking your anger out on your sister? Everyone sees how much she has always looked out for you. How could she possibly have done such a thing?”

Sheng Xueqin looked at the elderly Mr. Sheng, disbelieving.

“Grandpa, even you don’t believe me? The only drink I had was the champagne she passed to me, then I started to feel uncomfortable, and it was her suggestion that I go upstairs to rest. Besides her, who else could do this? Moreover, Huo Tingyang himself admitted it was her.”

“Sister, would you believe an outsider over your own sister with whom you’ve grown up? Besides Dad and Mom, you’re the closest person to me. How could I possibly harm you? I even offended Tingxiao and Mu Lan for your sake. Yet you suspect me like this? Just because of a few words from someone else, you hit me.

My own parents have never hit me, and even when I was most willful, Grandpa never laid a hand on me! But you slapped me right in front of Grandpa. You went too far!”
