The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly-Chapter 1050 - 401: A Chance Encounter

He Shengnan’s husband is not in the Provincial City, but in the Earth-level city under their County.

However, this city is not very far from the Provincial City.

After He Shengnan got married, although she no longer continued to help her brother take care of his niece, she didn’t sever contact with her brother.

For over thirty years, He Shengnan often resented her parents for favoring sons over daughters, but unconsciously, she also accepted the idea of "having a brother in the maternal family, one’s back is reliable."

Especially since her brother isn’t one of those lazy, parasitic types; both he and his wife are public officials.

After nearly twenty years of hard work, her brother even became a minor leader at their unit.

He’s not a big shot who calls the shots, but he does hold some real power.

He Shengnan’s husband is in business, and at times, he really needs the care of He Shengli.

... Thus, there are many reasons why He Shengnan was able to marry her "patron."

Though He Shengnan doesn’t say it, she knows it very well in her heart.

Whether for having support or maintaining her marriage, after she got married, she became even closer to her brother and sister-in-law than before.

Originally, He Shengnan worried that she couldn’t help her brother raise He Tiantian, which might cause some trouble for him, and her brother and sister-in-law would blame her.

But then, He Shengnan discovered that dead girl Tiantian is really brainless, actually daring to threaten her real father and mother.

This directly enraged He Shengli and his wife, and they gave He Tiantian a sum for upbringing and severed their relationship.

It was also because of He Tiantian’s callousness and lack of conscience that He Shengli not only didn’t resent his sister but felt a kind of "sympathy" with her instead.

How clever He Shengnan is, she promptly joined He Shengli in denouncing He Tiantian.

Saying how she was disobedient since young, only cared about money, had a heart as cold as stone...

He Shengnan wasn’t deliberately slandering her, she had evidence, "Shengli, Xiao Wei, you don’t know, that dead girl He Tiantian knew I was getting married, not only was she not happy for me, she actually threatened me!"

"She forcibly took several thousand yuan from me... someone who’s never had a child, raised her through pee and poop, was that easy?"

"Raised her, only to be raised as an enemy! Tell me, isn’t this child innately callous?"

He Shengnan is the type who never likes to lose, even when raising her brother’s child, she doesn’t forget to ask for upbringing fees, her biggest grievance was probably being extorted by He Tiantian.

He Shengnan had bottled up her anger for so long, she finally had a chance to vent.

She didn’t even need to exaggerate, her words made He Shengli and his wife’s faces turn grim.

"What? Sis, she, she even asked you for money?"

He Shengli is a minor leader at his unit, prides himself on having status, values, appearance, and reputation most in daily life.

Moreover, He Shengli is deeply rooted in male chauvinism.

Despite having gone to college and lived in a big city for twenty-some years, he still harbors a serious feudal patriarch mentality.

Deep down, he considers his wife and children as his possessions.

He could abandon his daughter, but the daughter shouldn’t resent him, let alone be as rebellious and unfilial as He Tiantian.

And now, a girl he didn’t even like dared to threaten him.

Upon receiving He Tiantian’s call and digesting her words, the shock and anger within He Shengli were indescribable.

Originally, He Shengli thought it was disgraceful enough for his daughter to dare threaten her parents, but unexpectedly—

"Yes! She probably blamed me for getting married and leaving her alone in the County!"

"But I had no choice. I’m over forty, nearing fifty years old; I can’t remain unmarried all my life."

"Who’d take care of me when I get old, not to mention the gossip in the County, I don’t want to listen to it anymore!"

"I’m a divorced woman who doesn’t mind, but we can’t ruin the Old He’s family reputation—"

He Shengnan understands her brother very well, so with just a few words she shifted the conflict from herself to He Shengli.

As expected, upon hearing this, He Shengli’s face turned even darker, "Sis, don’t concern yourself with that little brat!"

"You getting married is the right thing to do, as family we all support it!"

Support? Of course, support is needed, although He Shengli doesn’t live in the County, he did pass out from the small County.

The Old He’s family’s roots are here.

This society might laugh at poverty but not at prostitution, but having a sister as someone else’s mistress is still not a glamorous thing.
