Chapter 989 - 798: Countermeasure

Ye Qing opened her mouth, eager to speak but stopped without the urge to argue. She didn’t know how to explain herself now.

She didn’t know when Mei Langchi discovered it or how he found these things.

Ye Qing’s face turned pale at this moment, knowing that if Mei Langchi didn’t protect her and exposed the matter, it wouldn’t just be that she couldn’t stay with the Mei Family—it could land her in jail.

"Langchi, I don’t know what you’re talking about; I picked these things up when I went home that day." Ye Qing still insisted stubbornly.

"You’re really lucky to have such a coincidence, Ye Qing. You said you went home to rest, to our place. Ha... unfortunately, that night, I also went home, and I slept there all night." Mei Langchi knew she would respond this way and immediately trapped her with her own words.

This left Ye Qing with no reason to argue "You..."

"Ye Qing, we both know what kind of person we are. You don’t need to pretend in front of me. I initially let you into the Mei Family to keep Han Yi’s group in check, but I didn’t realize you were so stupid, causing me so much trouble. In the end, even implicating me." Mei Langchi spoke angrily at this point. If Ye Qing weren’t so foolish, how would he have gotten into such a situation now? It had all been going well.

"I realized that agreeing to let you into the Mei Family was a huge mistake."

"Langchi, what exactly do you want? I admit my mistakes. Please forgive me this time; I won’t do it again."

"Ye Qing, I’m tired of hearing such words with the same tone every time. It’s time to change your approach." Seeing Ye Qing silently acknowledge, Mei Langchi smiled as he walked up to her, lifted her chin, his voice grew colder, "Have you already planned to take these things and run far away with your precious son? Have you already decided to divorce me?"

Mei Langchi suddenly laughed, squeezing Ye Qing’s chin a bit tighter, "Ye Qing, actually, I’ve thought about divorcing you too. But...tsk tsk, I’ve suddenly changed my mind. You want a divorce, but I won’t give it."

"It hurts..." Ye Qing felt as if her jaw was about to be dislocated. She tried to pull his hand away with both of hers, but she wasn’t as strong as he was.

"So you feel the pain, that’s good." Mei Langchi said, tightening his grip a bit more, leaning to her ear, "I usually don’t like hitting women, but you’re an exception. You didn’t learn from the last time I hit you. So don’t blame me in the future."

"Mei Langchi, what do you want to do? Since you don’t like me anymore, Hua Hua isn’t your son, why do you keep dragging us along?" Ye Qing thought Mei Langchi was terrifying at this moment. It reminded her of the time Li Kaiying controlled her.

"How has it become me dragging you now? You begged me not to divorce you back then. How come in less than a year, it has changed?" Mei Langchi finished speaking, flung her chin away, and directly tossed her to the side. Ye Qing staggered, almost hitting her head on the edge of the table.

"Since you’ve done it, you must face the consequences, right?" Mei Langchi finished speaking, a sneer formed on his lips, and he turned to leave the bedroom. Halfway through, he returned.

Disgusted, he grabbed Ye Qing’s collar and dragged her out the door, "From now on, you’re not allowed in my room. The Mei Family is so big, you belong in the hallway."

After speaking, he slammed the door shut, locking Ye Qing outside. From now on, he wouldn’t be merciful to Ye Qing.

Ye Qing felt panic rising inside of her to the point of insanity. Mei Langchi held the evidence and clearly had no intention of keeping her secret. If the Mei Family found out about this, the first to not spare her would be Old Mrs. Mei.

Mei Langchi knew about this, which meant he knew about Qu Liushou.

Tomorrow, maybe tomorrow, Mei Langchi would tell the Mei Family about this, and then Qu Liushou would definitely become a target for arrest by the Mei Family.

Realizing this, Ye Qing didn’t bother worrying about where she’d sleep, and hurriedly went downstairs.

Late at night, she drove off anxiously in a hurry.

Meanwhile, Mei Langchi watched from the upstairs window as her car sped away, a mocking smile on his lips. He knew all too well where she was headed without even thinking.

...

Qu Liushou had been observing near Aunt Wu’s house for several days, discovering that during the daytime, someone was always home, never going out, and at night, the family slept early. There was simply no chance to act.
