Chapter 252: Chapter 252: Brave Counterattack
At this moment, Liu Zheng’s face was also very stern.
"What do you mean? You run into someone’s house and still want to hit people, do you believe I can call the police right now and have you arrested?"
But the old woman was not about to show any weakness.
Even though her hand was being gripped tightly by someone, she still had that defiant look on her face, as if she was completely unwilling to admit her wrongdoing.
"What do you think you are, daring to confront me like this? Do you have any idea what you are doing? She’s with a man, and you, behaving this way, makes you the other woman! You’re so shameless. How can you live with yourself?"
"I knew you two were having an affair! Even though you’ve denied it all along, you can’t possibly fool a widow like me!"
After hearing these words, Liu Zheng found them utterly laughable.
What is she even talking about? Does she know what she’s saying?
What does she mean by ’with a man’?
Where is her man anyway?
He has been dead for so many years now.
The only reason he had taken care of this widow in the first place was out of respect for past affection.
And now she dares to use this against him.
Quickly, Liu Zheng fiercely let go of her hand.
Then, he immediately said with a mocking tone,
"Oh? Is that so? Then tell me, where is her man? Bring him here to meet me."
"I really want to see what this is all about."
When the old woman heard this, she naturally became even angrier; she had not expected Liu Zheng to be so audacious.
"What are you implying? You clearly know that he’s already dead!"
As soon as the old woman said this, Liu Zheng, not to be outdone, immediately shot back,
"Oh, so you do remember that your son is dead, huh? Do you expect someone to remain a widow for their entire life just because your son died? She’s already divorced, what are you still ranting about?"
"Don’t make me laugh; thinking just because you lost your husband, others should be without one too. Although she and I are just friends, I can no longer tolerate the way you keep treating her!"
"I warn you, if you bother them again, don’t blame me for not being polite!"
"You should know I’m a doctor, and if I wanted to make someone die quietly, it would be very easy."
Liu Zheng really was at his limit; otherwise, he wouldn’t have said such things to the old woman.
After hearing this, the old woman naturally became somewhat worried. She was well aware of Liu Zheng’s profession, and fear really started to take hold in her heart.
So even the way she spoke began to falter,
"You... don’t think... don’t think you’re so great, I’m telling you, I won’t let you off the hook!"
"Good, then I’d like to see who will live longer, you, an old woman, or me, a vigorous young man in his prime. Since you want to fight, then I’ll indulge you in a proper battle to the end!"
"This morning you ran to my clinic to make a scene; I let it go without kicking up a fuss, and now you’re still causing trouble here!"
After hearing this, the old woman was truly furious.
She never imagined that Liu Zheng could be so eloquent.
She had told him off so many times already, and it seemed she had not won a single argument against him.
How could this not make her angry?
But now that things had come to this, she knew that even if she tried to salvage the situation, it would likely be of no avail.
And at this moment, Xiao Kai immediately rushed forward to stand before her.
"I warn you, please stop bothering me from now on, and leave my mother alone, or else I might not be able to let you off either."
Never did she expect that her grandson, who used to be so obedient, would now say such things to her.
At this moment, she truly felt a great pain in her heart.
"If you don’t leave now, I’m going to call the police, this is my house now," she said.
Seeing Xiao Kai and Liu Zheng both standing up for her like this.
If that was the case, how could she remain indifferent?
No matter what, she had to make some changes.
Otherwise, she feared that later on, she might appear even more manipulative to them, and they might do something even more outrageous to her.
Seeing Li Yanling take a step forward at this moment and say those words, Liu Zheng truly felt overjoyed.
He had thought that Li Yanling would never fight back.
But now, it seemed that what he and Xiao Kai had done had indeed influenced her, and it helped her understand what she should and shouldn’t do.
Sometimes, some people just take advantage of generosity.
Once you give them a little benefit, they’ll just want more and more.
And as time goes on, they naturally become increasingly outrageous.
If they think you’re easy to manipulate, then they’ll manipulate you for a lifetime.
No matter what, Liu Zheng didn’t want things to continue like this.
He also hoped that Li Yanling would bravely stand up and say no to these unfair situations.
And now, she had finally managed to do just that.
This truly brought great relief to Liu Zheng’s heart.
If that was the case, then he also believed that their lives would definitely get better and better in the future.
Seeing that everyone had begun to speak up, the old lady naturally felt embarrassed to stay any longer.
And quickly, she could only leave while cursing under her breath.
Not only that, but she also took her belongings with her.
And when it was all over, Xiao Kai firmly closed the door.
At this moment, he noticed that Li Yanling’s complexion didn’t quite look good, and he immediately stepped forward to his mother’s side, asking with concern.
"Mom, what’s wrong, are you okay now?"
At this moment, Li Yanling was sitting on the sofa, breathing heavily.
To tell the truth, she never expected the old lady to show up at this time.
How could this not be a heavy blow for her?
But she was indeed very relieved.
The person she had been before truly did not have the courage to say no to all this.
But now, everything was completely different.
With the encouragement of the two of them, she had indeed changed a lot.
And that was truly something worth being happy about.
Everything had changed, and she had bravely stood up.
No longer quietly hiding behind these two.
After contemplating all this, a smile appeared on her face, and then she spoke to the child in front of her.
"It’s okay, Mom is very happy now."
