Chapter 292: Chapter 285: In-Law Relationship Broken
In the Leng Mansion, Xiao Meiās father stood in the upstairs hallway looking down. Below, a row of men dressed uniformly were standing at attention, watching the upstairs for any movement.
These men were called by Sister Liu to supervise the packing, and Sister Liu stood in the upstairs hallway overseeing them personally, her face constantly smiling. Clearly, she was very pleased and not at all afraid to be seen by these men.
Xu Juan and Yu Bin did not expect that Sister Liu could really find people, and each was well-trained. They had always regarded Sister Liu as a housemaid, but in fact, she was the housekeeper of the entire Leng Mansion. The operation of the Leng Mansion was all under Sister Liuās charge; you could say that she was the person who knew this house best, even more than Leng Yichen.
Xiao Meiās father paced back and forth in the hallway, occasionally shouting towards his wife who was packing in the bedroom, "Hurry up and pack the things, whatās the delay! Isnāt it shameful enough! Weāre being kicked out!"
He had never suffered such humiliation, having to pack up and leave while being watched. This feeling was as if he were on guard against those poor relatives from the countryside. He took a deep breath, stewing in his anger, and stormed into Xu Juanās bedroom.
When Xu Juan saw him coming, she hurriedly said, "In-law..."
"What in-law!" Xiao Meiās father roared, "Iāve never suffered such humiliation in my life. Now because of your Yu Family, our whole family is going through this! Anyway, I will never agree to let Xiao Mei marry your good-for-nothing son!"
Good-for-nothing!
The thing Xu Juan couldnāt stand the most in her life was someone insulting her son. Hearing Xiao Meiās father call Yu Bin good-for-nothing, Xu Juan immediately erupted, "Who are you calling good-for-nothing! I think your daughter is the useless one! Always playing the victim and seeking sympathy! Isnāt she completely useless? Leng Yichen and Bai Yiran never even paid attention to her! Does she really think being pregnant makes her valuable? If it werenāt for the fact that sheās carrying our Yu Binās child, a family like yours would never even step foot into our Yu house!"

Xiao Meiās father was so infuriated by Xu Juanās words that his breathing became uneven. At this point, he couldnāt care about anything else, and cursed, "You old hag! Whatās wrong with a family like ours? Do you think your family is any good? You started boasting to us, and it turns out Leng Yichen never considered you important! Do you really think youāre somebody?"
"You! You!" Xu Juan was so angry at Xiao Meiās father that she didnāt know what to say.
The quarrel quickly attracted Yu Bin and Xiao Meiās mother.
"Mom! What are you arguing about!" Yu Bin asked.
Xu Juan grabbed Yu Binās arm and said excitedly, "Son, weāre not marrying that woman! Mom will find you someone better in the future!"
"Mom, what are you talking about? Xiao Mei is already pregnant with my child, I must take responsibility! Donāt you want a grandson?"
Hearing Yu Binās words, Xu Juanās demeanor immediately softened at the thought of her grandson.
Xiao Meiās father was still fuming, shouting, "What do you mean your child! That child..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Meiās mother pushed her husband, signaling him to calm down.
"Whatās wrong with that child?" Xu Juan asked.
Xiao Meiās father hesitated, almost saying something he shouldnāt have. He changed his tone, "Iāll take Xiao Mei to get rid of that child later! Xiao Mei! Xiao Mei!"
Amidst the heated argument, they then realized Xiao Mei was never here.
The door to Bai Yiranās bedroom was gently pushed open from outside, and Xiao Mei tiptoed in, her eyes filled with uncontainable excitement; she finally had a chance to come in!
