But who knew that as soon as Shi Wenqian would enter Zhang Renshu's home, she would immediately continue her plot to the next level just until she got what she wanted.
It was only when she got into his Josie that she revealed she had a daughter and having accepted her already, Zhang Renshu couldn't turn her away.
Finally after Shi Wenqian succeeded in ruining his relationship and upcoming marriage with his fiancée, Song Jujing, that was the end of Zhang Renshu's kindness and humanity.
The man was forced to learn a great lesson he was thought.
Having recounted the summary of the details of what happened back then, Shi Wenqian turned her attention back to Zhang Liling.
"So you see how I could easily get what I want?"
"I see you can go to any length to get what you want but how about you answer one disturbing question I have that's like a thorn in my flesh?" Zhang Liling queried.
Seeing the great joy her stepmother derived from making her worked up, she was forced to use her senses.
She was no longer going to give her that joy of wining.
"What is it?" Shi Wenqian asked with a proud smile.
Recalling the past reminded her of how formidable she was. Getting what she wanted at all cost and by all means was truly a talented and a tendency she had
Thinking that Zhang Liling was baffled with how she was able to make things happen, she decided to grant her one question.
"How come Zhang Mingyu has a blood disorder and my father doesn't have and neither do you?"
Suddenly, silence ensued in the room as the smile on Shi Wenqian's face froze.
As for her housekeeper, that one was shocked to learn of this and with the way she turned to glance at her mistress, it was obvious that this was her first time hearing about it.
"Why are you not saying anything, cat's got your tongue?"
Seeing those clear signs of her assumption being the truth, Zhang Liling couldn't help but want to punch her.
Somehow, her question managed to bring Shi Wenqian back to herself and immediately, she retorted.
"How dare you slander me and my son? Have you gone nuts?"
'This rat, how much does she know?' She thought to herself while glaring at her.
Seeing how strongly she reacted, Zhang Liling nodded.
"Slander? Am I actually slandering you? If you are asking if I have gone crazy, yes, I have!"
Scoffing, she pointed a finger at her.
"Don't you dare try to cover anything up because those times when you drew my blood every time Mingyu got injured, I noticed. It was all thanks to you that I managed to find out about the secret illness no one else apart from you, him and me knew of.
Seeing you try to deny this fact, I am now quite sure that you are a snake!"
"Shut your mouth!" Shi Wenqian said immediately, trying to shut her up.
"You don't know anything yet you can not stop assuming things."
"If I am wrong, then correct me, but you can't deny the fact that Zhang Mingyu has a bleeding disorder!"
Zhang Liling refused to let go off that point because she trusted her stepmother to be very good at twisting truths.
That was what she was born for.
Seeing that Zhang Liling was very smart and knew much to this level, Shi Wenqian knew that she couldn't deny this fact.
Knowing this, she quickly restrategized. "Fine! Mingyu has a bleeding disorder and the only reason I hid it from your Father was so he wouldn't leave faith in his only son! Apart from that, there is nothing else.
Yes, Zhang Renshu might not have that trait from his blood line, but what about mine? What do you know about me?!"
In essence, Shi Wenqian was trying to tell her that the bleeding disorder run's in her family and the only reason she hid this matter was so Zhang Renshu would not abandon Zhang Mingyu in the course to choosing a successor.
Although Zhang Liling did not believe her, she said before walking away.
"If Zhang Mingyu can bleed to death at any time, then he is not fit to sit on that Chair at Zhang Corp so you better quit your plots."
Letting out a deep breath, she added as her voice thined down. "Is Zhang Mingyu, truly my father's son?"
Zhang Liling left the room with that question but as soon as she opened the door, she saw the young woman that had been eavesdropping on their conversation.
Glaring at her, she turned toward her right and stormed off.
Seeing Zhang Liling getting away, Zhang Xiaoling immediately tried to control the shock on her face and immediately followed her.
Since they were still close to the room she had just walked out from, she couldn't shout her and ask her to slow down hence, she continued to chase after her till they had gone safely far from that place.
"Zhang Liling!" Pulling her arm, Zhang Xiaoling brought her to stop.
"What is it?" Turning her face to the side to face her, Zhang Liling posed a question while looking a bit irritated.
Earlier when she had stepped out of the room and had seen her standing there, she had been shocked, but as she was not in the mood to question her, she decided against it and walked away.
She really wanted to know much she heard and knew from the conversation she just had with her mother.
Slowly releasing her hand without being asked to, Zhang Xiaoling asked with her gaze on her.
"Does my brother really have a bleeding disorder?"
No matter how much she heard, Zhang Xiaoling still needed a confirmation.
"Did you not hear your mother admit to it or are you trying to pretend all of that didn't happen?" Zhang Liling retorted as she was to annoyed to explain things to her as if she was a lame child.
What was so hard to hear and understand?
