Chapter 610 - 591: Shen Qing Encounters a Scumbag

"We don’t care for the benefits of the Mei Family. Mei Shuping, you better get lost."

A long-lost voice made Mei Shuping freeze for a moment. He looked up, wasn’t it Shen Qing? Over the years, Shen Qing no longer carried her original gentleness. How did she become so forceful?

Looking at the man by her side, Mei Shuping felt a moment of awkwardness.

"Mei Shuping, do you still have the face to come looking for your son? What do you think my son is? Throw him away when you feel like it, take him back when you want. A few years ago, you came to me saying you wanted to take him back, I disagreed. We parted unhappily."

Mom told me that in the past two years Mei Shuping often met Han Yi secretly, she struggled for a chance to meet him. This time, they could finally talk it over properly.

"Shen Qing, I’m just doing this for the child’s sake. Don’t forget, you’ve been married these years, and you haven’t fulfilled your responsibilities as a mother. You left the child with your elderly parents. Have you taken care of him?"

"My child, it’s not your place to dictate how I should manage. Let me tell you, Mei Shuping, in front of me, you don’t have the right to make any demands. Don’t forget, you owe me, not the other way around. In this lifetime, my child, don’t even think about taking him to your Mei Family."

"Absolutely unreasonable. Clearly, the child has a better future, yet you insist on being so stubborn."

"Better future? In your family?" Shen Qing scoffed, mocking, "With that dominant mother of yours, I would never let my son go to your filthy, dirty family. Get lost."

"Shen Qing, you have no right to be excessive. Xiao Yi is grown now, he’s an adult, he has the right to choose. You have no right to control his life. He’s just angry now. After a year or two, when he thinks it through, he’ll know where is best for him and for his future children."

"You said it right. I’m grown up now, have my own family, have children, so I don’t need you to support or raise me. I have my own life, please, don’t disturb our life anymore. Also, go home and properly train your son. If he tries anything backhanded, don’t blame me for being impolite."

"That’s your brother, can’t you just let him a bit? This time with the photos, is it you behind this?"

Mei Shuping’s words successfully angered Han Yi, and also annoyed Hu Bin.

"Is this what a father should say? Aren’t you supposedly a military man? Without clarifying things, you come and interrogate the child. You owe him a lot over these years. Do you know your son at all, coming from far away to question him? Why don’t you ask your own son what he’s done? Do you know, that during Xiao Yi’s illness, your son almost cut off his future. You are so irresponsible, only giving birth but not nurturing, a man totally unworthy of having children."

Hu Bin’s words first left Mei Shuping a bit confused, then furious at the latter part. "What qualifications do you have to scold me, you pathetic loafer who’s with a worn-out shoe."

Mei Shuping’s words instantly stripped Shen Qing of her dignity, leaving her in pain. Han Yi’s fists clenched tight, veins bulging.

"At your age, as a military man, to say such words, you’re truly despicable. Watch me teach a lesson to you, you brat." Hu Bin too was outraged, as he spoke, he raised his fist to strike at Mei Shuping.

Years of military training and career, Mei Shuping easily outmatched Hu Bin. In a few moves, he knocked Hu Bin to the ground.

"Uncle Hu?" Lin Wan saw the situation and hurriedly called out.

"Old Hu?" Shen Qing hurriedly stepped forward, pushing away Mei Shuqing who was about to strike.

Seizing Lin Wan’s distraction, Han Yi swiftly moved up and kicked Mei Shuping square in the chest, causing him to stumble back to the wall, clutching his chest, gasping heavily.

Pointing at Han Yi with icy eyes, for a moment he was speechless, "You... you... ungrateful son, dare to hit me! I’m your father."

"I have no father, never did, and never will. While I can still control myself, disappear from our doorstep, or I won’t be polite."

Han Yi said, supporting Hu Bin as the family entered the courtyard.

"Uncle Hu, are you okay?" Lin Wan looked at Uncle Hu, unable to straighten up.

Hu Bin waved it off, "I’m fine, I’m fine. Just old age, can’t endure a fall, will be fine in a moment."

"And you, why fight him? He’s trained for so many years, how could you beat him?" Shen Qing was both distressed and angry.

"It’s just too infuriating. How could there be someone as shameless as him?" Speaking of it, Hu Bin was meeting Han Yi’s biological father for the first time. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be such a scoundrel. A division commander, nonetheless, not sure how he got that rank."

"Uncle Hu, if you see him again next time, just ignore him. He won’t disturb you and Mom anymore." Han Yi helped Hu Bin to lie down on the bed.

Hu Bin nodded, "We naturally don’t see him often, but you, he probably won’t let go of you easily, there will be many times seeking you in the future."

"I can handle it."

"Xiao Yi, you just mentioned, that his son is causing you trouble too? Is that right?" Shen Qing wasn’t a fool, she could hear, "This issue at Xiao Wan’s home, was it his son who did it?"

"Mom, it’s nothing, don’t worry." Lin Wan hurriedly reassured.

"Nothing happened, there’s clearly something, Mom isn’t stupid, I can hear it." Shen Qing said, her eyes beginning to redden. "It’s all Mom’s fault, making you suffer. Mom is incompetent, completely unable to stand against them."

Han Yi’s expression turned gloomy, concealing the hatred in his eyes and said, "Mom, it’s not your fault for what happened. The past is past, now you and Uncle Hu are well, that’s all that matters. Don’t worry about other things."

"I’m doing well with your mom. You don’t need to worry about us, you young couple should just be well."

This family day, Shen Qing and Hu Bin planned to take Little Star home for a couple of days during their rest, but instead they ran into Mei Shuping.

Seeing Uncle Hu hurt like this, Lin Wan didn’t dare let them take the child home. Although she wanted Han Yi to accompany Uncle Hu for a checkup, both Uncle Hu and Shen Qing said it was fine, just rest for a while.

Lin Wan had no choice but to comply with them, hurriedly had Han Yi slaughter a chicken for lunch. After resting for a bit, Hu Bin finally recovered.

Seeing no serious injuries, Han Yi and Lin Wan were relieved.

As they sent off Aunt and Uncle Hu, outside, Mei Shuping’s figure was long gone.

Every encounter with Mei Shuping was never pleasant, afraid Han Yi would feel upset, Lin Wan and Little Star stayed by his side all afternoon.

Han Yi laughed as he held the mother and daughter, "I’m not a child that needs comforting."

"By your expression, it’s clear you’re unhappy."

"I’m just angry at Mei Shuping, you know that."

Lin Wan nodded and sighed, "Still disappointed, right?"

Having such a father, how could one not be disappointed?

This time Han Yi remained silent, hugging her and the child, in silence for a long time.

Mei Shuping wasn’t sure if he returned to the Capital City or to the S City’s military district, but he didn’t show up in front of them these past few days.

Lin Wan, after finalizing the autumn-winter samples, and Han Yi went to the market to choose fabrics.

In a few days, they will go to Z City together, speaking of which, Lin Wan was indeed a bit nervous.

"Last time in Shanghai, there wasn’t even time to shop around, heard there are quite a lot of good things there." She regretted to Han Yi on the way back.

"If we go to Z City and have some time, I’ll accompany you to visit once more."

"Really?" Lin Wan was overjoyed, since having Little Star, they’ve never gone out alone together. Actually, they never really dated alone either.

"Of course it’s true. We can leave the child with my brother, let him help take care for two days, we go for three or four days and then return."

Lin Wan agreed, nodding, "Hmm, I think that’s feasible."

After three days, Lin Wan finished things up with Yin Peibai and Su Ling. The brother also arranged for leave, the three of them took Little Star and got on the train heading to Z City. On the train, it takes two days to reach, Han Yi bought sleeper tickets. Three together makes it easier to take care of the child.

These days, venturing out faces a major fear of kidnappers. But things have improved recently.

Train food is much better than years ago, at least there’s some meals now. Though still really expensive.

During her visit to Shanghai to see Han Yi, Lin Wan had a portion, costing two yuan, so expensive. Despite that, many still bought.

There were always plenty of wealthy people, no matter the time.

"Bro, when do you plan to have the wedding with Sister Mu Qing?"

"How about the eleventh? She said she could apply for leave then."

"The eleventh sounds great, invite more people over then."

"Yes, we’ve planned to just invite some close friends and family, I have a few colleagues, and then Cong Nan and a few others."
