Chapter 5 Family

• "I don't, Lingrui. Let's eat somewhere else."
• Min Qing rigidly took Min Lingrui by the hand and turned to leave. Her gaze was full of hatred that could erupt at any time.
• But she didn't want to frighten her son.
• "Sister!" Min Shan'er exclaimed loudly.
• Min Qing frowned upon hearing that.
• Instantly, Min Lingrui could feel his mother's grip on his little hand tighten.
• Instead of crying out in pain, he cast a hostile glance toward Min Shan'er.
• His mommy never told him she had a younger sister.
• He Anzhou and the elderly couple turned toward them at the same time.
• An imperceptible longing arose in He Anzhou's heart as he gazed at Min Qing's flawless, porcelain face. She still looked as beautiful as she did years ago.
• Min Shan'er was next to He Anzhou, and even she could feel the slight change in his behavior.
• Jealousy filled Min Shan'er's eyes as her hatred for Min Qing deepened. It had taken so long for her to come this far with He Anzhou, but now Min Qing had suddenly appeared and captured his attention.
• Why isn't she dead? She shouldn't be here.
• "What are you doing here with this bastard child, Min Qing? Are you still trying to steal Anzhou from Shan'er? How shameless can you be? You fooled around with another man and gave birth to a bastard, but now you want the child to call He Anzhou father?"
• Shen Hongmei was Min Shan'er's birth mother. She exclaimed as though she wanted everyone to know that Min Qing had an affair and gave birth to an illegitimate child.
• Every guest in the hotel was a member of the upper-class society. Everyone turned toward Min Qing and began pointing at her.
• "I won't let you bully my mommy."
• Min Lingrui suddenly broke free of Min Qing's grasp and rushed over to punch Shen Hongmei with his small fists.
• "Ouch! The bastard child is hitting me."
• Shen Hongmei deliberately allowed him to punch her and played the victim card. When the little boy retracted his punch, she snickered and pretended to shove him by accident.
• But the little boy was no match for an old vixen like Shen Hongmei.
• With one push, he flopped onto the ground.
• "Lingrui!" Everything happened so quickly that Min Qing didn't have time to react at all. Seeing her son land with a loud thud, she rushed over to pick him up and noticed a bump on the back of his head. 
• "Does it hurt?"
• "No."
• The little boy didn't cry, but his eyes were red from trying to hold in his tears.
• Min Qing saw red as her heart was filled with pain.
• "Shen Hongmei, how wicked can you be to do this to a child?" Min Qing trembled in anger. If there were someone to protect both of them, she would undoubtedly charge toward Shen Hongmei to start a fight.
• "I didn't start it. Your ill-bred little bastard attacked me first. I only gave him what he deserved!"
• Shen Hongmei felt triumphant inside. This child wants to fight me? He's no match for me! Even his own grandmother died by my hands after trying to fight me.
• Shan'er is still young, so she wasn't skilled enough to kill Min Qing.
• Now, this b*tch and her little bastard son are here in front of me.
• She constantly referred to the child as a bastard.
• Min Qing wanted to rip her mouth apart.
• "And you think you're well-bred? You became my dad's mistress before even finishing college, gave birth to a bastard daughter and took my mother's life to claim your throne," Min Qing scoffed. "Now your bastard daughter is following your footsteps by seducing my ex-husband and nearly killing me along with my child. If anyone so lowly and ruthless is to be considered well-bred, I suppose you and your daughter were bred to perfection."
