Beat Up Every Man She Finds
"Yanxi, what's wrong?" Seeing how aggrieved her daughter looked, Zheng Minhong grew serious.
"Zheng Yanxin hit Little Ze, and she even said..." Crying, Zheng Yanxi told her how her sister had bullied Chen Ze.
"How outrageous! This is too much! How dare she bully my dear son-in-law! Yanxi, don't cry. I'll call that unfilial daughter over right now and avenge you!" Zheng Minhong said furiously.
Zheng Minhong took out her phone and dialed a number. Before long, a cold voice came from the other end.
"Hello, Mom. What do you need?" Zheng Yanxin said.
"Come to my office. Right this instant!" Zheng Minhong roared.
There was a pause on the other end. Then Zheng Yanxin said "Okay" and hung up.
"This is too much!" Zheng Minhong's anger hadn't subsided, but she turned to comfort Zheng Yanxi. "Don't worry, Yanxi. I absolutely won't let her off lightly this time!"
More than ten minutes later, Zheng Yanxin pushed open the office door and walked in.
"You unfilial daughter, get on your knees!" Zheng Minhong shouted angrily at the indifferent-looking Zheng Yanxin.
Zheng Yanxi was furious too, looking as though she wanted nothing more than to rush over and beat her up.
"Speak! Why did you hit Little Chen?" Zheng Minhong demanded.
Like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, Zheng Yanxin turned her head away without saying a word.
Seeing her like that only made Zheng Minhong angrier. She grabbed a ruler and struck Zheng Yanxin with it.
A smack rang out. Zheng Yanxin frowned slightly in pain, but still made no sound.
Zheng Yanxi rushed over and slapped Zheng Yanxin too. "Zheng Yanxin, ever since we were little, you've tried to snatch everything I had. It was bad enough when you hit me, but why did you hit my Little Ze? What did he do wrong for you to treat him like that?"
Zheng Yanxin turned and stared at Zheng Yanxi's face, red with anger. Looking aggrieved, she said, "It was all because of you!"
"Because of me? Ha! That's ridiculous! Chen Ze and I were doing just fine, and you hit him and say it was because of me?" Zheng Yanxi's lungs were practically bursting with rage. You hit my man, and you're saying it was for my own good?
"Yes! I hit him! He snatched you away from me! You belong to me, and he deserved it!" Zheng Yanxin seemed to have thrown caution to the wind and spilled everything in her heart.
Zheng Minhong froze. She still hadn't made sense of what was happening.
Zheng Yanxi froze too. Although Chen Ze had told her before that her sister liked her, she hadn't taken it to heart. She'd thought he was speaking in anger and hadn't expected Zheng Yanxin to come right out and say it.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Chen Ze and I were already a couple. What do you mean, he snatched me away?" Zheng Yanxi said, a little dazed.
Zheng Yanxin suddenly grabbed Zheng Yanxi's hand and said passionately, "He only approached you for our family's money. He must have ulterior motives. I'm the only one who treats you well with all my heart. Sister, you have to believe me!"
Zheng Yanxi finally came to her senses. She shook off her hand and said angrily, "What nonsense are you spouting? Chen Ze isn't like that at all. He's so kind and sensible. He won't even let me spend money on him when I want to. How could he be the kind of person you're talking about?"
"He won't spend your money because he wants even more! Sister, you have to believe me. I'm the only one who loves you most, and I'm the only one who can make you happy. He must have approached you for money!" Zheng Yanxin said urgently.
"Shut up! You're disgusting! I... I'll beat you to death!" Zheng Yanxi seemed beside herself with fury. She clenched her fists and swung at Zheng Yanxin.
"That's for talking badly about Little Ze! That's for spouting nonsense! To hell with your fucking happiness..." Zheng Yanxi's fists rained down on Zheng Yanxin, who seemed to lose her temper too. The two of them began to brawl.
"Oh my! What are you doing?!" a voice suddenly cried from the doorway.
Wang Ning stood there with both hands over his mouth, staring at the scene in shock.
Seeing the sisters fighting, Wang Ning hurried over to pull them apart. But he was too weak, and after tugging at them for a long time, he couldn't budge either one. He angrily snapped at Zheng Minhong, who was standing dazed to one side, "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and help!"
"Oh... oh, right!" Zheng Minhong finally came to her senses and hurried over to break up the fight.
The wife and husband each grabbed one of the sisters, and after a long struggle, they finally pulled them apart.
Both sisters were bruised and swollen now, but Zheng Yanxi still wasn't satisfied. She kicked Zheng Yanxin again, and their parents pulled them farther apart.
"Can someone tell me what happened?" Wang Ning asked.
"Dad, Zheng Yanxin..." Zheng Yanxi explained the whole story.
After listening, Wang Ning looked furious too. He reached out and kept poking Zheng Yanxin in the forehead as he said, "How could you behave like this as her older sister? Little Ze is such a good boy, and he's your brother-in-law too. How could you hit him? Today I'm going to teach you a proper lesson!" With that, he kept poking Zheng Yanxin in the forehead.
Zheng Minhong rolled her eyes and asked, "Yanxin, why must you make things difficult for your sister? You beat up the fiancé we found for her back then and drove him away. Now she's finally found a husband, and you went and hit him too. Are you trying to make our family line die out?"
Enduring the pain of being poked in the forehead, Zheng Yanxin stuck out her neck and said, "None of those men are any good. They all approached my sister for our family's money. I'm the only one who would truly treat her well!"
"What nonsense is that? Your dad is a man too. Does that mean I'm no good either?" Wang Ning grew even angrier, and the one finger poking her forehead became two...
"This is outrageous! She's your own sister. Don't tell me you want to marry her?" Zheng Minhong said angrily.
"What's wrong with that? Women marrying women is common these days. If you're worried about the family line dying out, Mom, we can just spend some money on IVF. It's not like our family can't afford it!" Zheng Yanxin looked like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water.
"Give it up. I'll never like you, and I certainly won't marry you!" Disgusted by her words, Zheng Yanxi spoke angrily.
Zheng Minhong said furiously, "You two are sisters! How am I supposed to show my face if word gets out? I'll never agree to it!"
Wang Ning stopped poking her forehead and said, "Your mother is right. Besides, your sister doesn't like you. She and Little Ze make such a good couple. You're not allowed to break up their family!"
"Fine, fine, fine. None of you agree, right? Then from now on, every time my sister finds a man, I'll beat him until he runs away. Let's see who still dares come near her!"
"Fuck you!" Zheng Yanxi flew into a rage. Throwing all caution aside, she rushed over, grabbed Zheng Yanxin, and started hitting her! For a while, the office was in utter chaos...
Meanwhile, Chen Ze was playing a game absentmindedly in the spacious apartment. Zheng Yanxi had told him to wait for her to return, so he hadn't gone anywhere.
"She's been gone so long and still hasn't come back. I hope nothing happened," Chen Ze murmured.
A little worried, Chen Ze took out his phone to call and ask. Just then, someone called him instead. He looked at the screen and saw that it was Shangguan Mingyue.
"Hello, Sister Mingyue. Do you need something?" Chen Ze asked.
Shangguan Mingyue had changed into a brand-new pink stepmother dress and put on exquisite makeup. Her red lips parted. "Chen Ze, are you free tonight?"
"Do you need something, Sister Mingyue?" Chen Ze asked instead of answering.
"It's nothing much. I just wanted to treat you to a casual meal," Shangguan Mingyue said.
Chen Ze thought it over. Zheng Yanxi was standing up for him right now; if he went out on a date with another woman, he'd be a real bastard! Besides, he still had injuries on his face, so it wasn't a good time to go out and see people.
"Sorry, Sister Mingyue. I have something to do tonight," Chen Ze said, turning her down.
Shangguan Mingyue was a little stunned. For all her calculations, she hadn't expected Chen Ze to refuse.
"All right, then. When are you free?" Shangguan Mingyue asked.
"The evening after tomorrow. I'm a little busy these next two days," Chen Ze replied.
Chen Ze couldn't quite understand why Sister Mingyue was so determined to treat him to a meal, even asking when he was free. Could she be plotting something?
Chen Ze thought back to the strange things Shangguan Mingyue had said that day and couldn't help wondering to himself.
"Oh, all right. I'll ask you out again the day after tomorrow," Shangguan Mingyue said.
Shangguan Mingyue touched her freshly made-up face, then looked at the several gift boxes lying quietly beside her. She couldn't help giving a bitter smile.
Everything was ready, but unexpectedly, the person it was all for wasn't free. Her confession plan had died in the womb before it even began.
"The evening after tomorrow? You'd better come, or I'll be angry!" Shangguan Mingyue murmured to herself.
"Hello! The plan originally set for tonight is canceled. Move it to the evening after tomorrow!"
"Yes!"
