The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

Meng Jinyao widened her eyes and looked at the scene in front of her with astonishment, as if time had frozen at this moment.

The brother who once cared for her and doted on her in every way, now pushed her to the ground without hesitation for another woman!

Her heart felt like it was ruthlessly cut by a sharp knife. The intense pain came like a tide, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

However, despite the devastation she suffered, her delicate face was still filled with disbelief.

"Brother, what do you mean by this?"

Meng Jinyao finally couldn't hold back the anger and grievance in her heart anymore, and questioned in a trembling voice.

But the city lord didn't even look at her. He turned his head away with an impatient look on his face, and his eyes fell anxiously on Xue Jinhua beside him, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

His action was like a heavy hammer hitting Meng Jinyao's heart. She could never have imagined that her elder brother would completely ignore her existence at this time, not even looking at her, but instead caring about that woman first!

At this moment, not only Meng Jinyao found all this incredible, even the city lord's wife standing beside her also found it difficult to understand.

She watched her husband openly caring for another woman in front of her, and she couldn't help feeling bitter and angry.

Xue Jinhua obviously noticed the hostile and questioning looks from Meng Jinyao and the City Lord's wife, but she just frowned slightly and said softly: "Lord City Lord, I'm really fine, but I'm afraid that this will cause misunderstandings from the City Lord's wife. It's better to quickly explain the relationship between the two of us."

After listening to Xue Jinhua's explanation, the city lord instantly understood the whole story.

However, to Meng Jinyao, Xue Jinhua's words seemed to be an act of complaint.

Meng Jinyao's eyes suddenly turned red. She pointed at Xue Jinhua with her eyes wide open and shouted with gnashing teeth, "You shameless bitch! It's obvious that you deliberately seduced my eldest brother, and you even have the nerve to act like a hypocrite here. It's disgusting!"

Anyone who is insulted as a bitch like this will feel extremely unhappy and angry deep down.

Xue Jinhua couldn't help but frown, and responded with a serious face: "Ms. Meng, please be careful with your words. Bad words will not solve the problem. I have repeatedly stated that your brother and I do not have the kind of relationship you think."

"Hmph! Stop pretending to be so noble! You're the only one who knows what kind of person you are!" Meng Jinyao was still relentless and continued to mock Xue Jinhua.

Xue Jinhua frowned again. She really couldn't understand why Meng Jinyao had such deep hostility towards her.

At this moment, the city lord finally couldn't hold back his anger, and shouted at Meng Jinyao in a stern voice: "Shut up! Third sister, I order you to shut up immediately! If you continue to be so unreasonable and reckless, don't blame me for not showing you mercy!"

Meng Jinyao was actually very afraid of her elder brother, so after hearing this, she simply shut up in grievance.

The city lord turned his head slightly and his eyes fell on the city lord's wife. He saw that the city lord's wife had a look of grievance on her face, her eyes were slightly red, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes.

She gently pulled Meng Jinyao's sleeve and whispered, "Third sister, let's leave first... If we stay here, I'm afraid it will only make the situation more difficult to handle."

However, Meng Jinyao had other thoughts in mind.

She thought to herself, if she just turned around and left, wouldn't that be the same as admitting that she was in the wrong and running away?

If you do this, you will definitely become the laughing stock of everyone present and will never be able to face others again.

Thinking of this, Meng Jinyao bit her lower lip tightly and shook her head firmly to express her refusal.

At this moment, Xue Jinhua suddenly spoke, her voice was clear and loud, but her tone was clearly filled with dissatisfaction and reproach. Her face instantly turned gloomy, and she said coldly: "You did something wrong and you want to settle the matter so easily. Do you really think it's appropriate to do so?"

Meng Jinyao was already dissatisfied with what had just happened, and now hearing Xue Jinhua's merciless words, the anger in her heart suddenly burned even more.

She widened her eyes, glared at Xue Jinhua, and raised her voice to ask, "What do you mean by that? Could it be that everything that happened today is my fault?"

Facing Meng Jinyao's questioning, Xue Jinhua did not back down. Instead, she raised her chin with a hint of contempt in her eyes. She chuckled and said, "Miss Meng acted rashly just now and bumped into me. I didn't want to argue with you too much for the sake of the city lord. But Miss Meng doesn't seem to appreciate it. In that case, why don't you ask Miss Meng to apologize to me and let this matter end here."

"otherwise………"

Having said that, Xue Jinhua deliberately paused, glanced at everyone present, and then slowly said: "I'm afraid that others will think that Miss Meng is too arrogant and rude, and she doesn't know how to repent." After saying that, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

However, these words were like a loud slap in the face of Meng Jinyao.

In an instant, Meng Jinyao felt an indescribable shame and anger surge in her heart, and her originally calm mood was instantly stirred into turbulence and difficult to calm down.

Her pretty face turned red with anger, her beautiful eyes widened and she stared at the person in front of her. She gritted her teeth and said, "Impossible! You want me to apologize to you? Unless I die, it's impossible!"

Seeing this, Xue Jinhua sighed inwardly.

She knew that continuing the stalemate at this moment would not benefit anyone, so she said softly: "Lord City Lord, since things have developed to this point, why don't I leave first. Perhaps this way, more unnecessary troubles and disputes can be avoided."

As she spoke, she raised her head slightly and glanced at the city lord, her eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and determination.

The city lord couldn't help but frown upon hearing this, and said with a worried look on his face: "Madam Xue, you have just woken up and your body has not yet fully recovered. How can you leave alone at this time? What if you encounter an accident on the way?"

Hearing the city lord's concerned words, Xue Jinhua shook her head gently, lowered her head slowly, and replied with a slightly bitter voice: "Thank you for your concern, Lord City Lord, but I don't like to be wronged. Besides, Miss Meng has a deep prejudice against me now. If I continue to stay here, I am afraid that more trouble will arise in the future. So... please allow me to leave here."

Although every word Xue Jinhua said was true, there was not a single falsehood in it.

But to Meng Jinyao, it sounded like a naked threat.

She became increasingly angry and shouted at the city lord, "Brother, don't believe her lies! She is clearly forcing you on purpose, don't believe her lies!"

"If Miss Meng continues to misunderstand me like this, I really can't stay here any longer!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Jinhua stood up suddenly and said solemnly, "Lord City Lord, in order to avoid any misunderstandings and disputes in the future, I think it is best for me to leave first."

After saying this, she turned around without hesitation and walked hurriedly towards the door.

Upon seeing this, the city lord's expression suddenly changed. He turned to look at Meng Jinyao with anger on his face and said sternly, "Why are you still standing there? Apologize to Madam Xue immediately!"

However, Meng Jinyao bit her lips tightly, turned her head away stubbornly, and said firmly: "I will never apologize!"

In an instant, there was a crisp "slap" sound, and the city lord didn't even think about it, he raised his hand and slapped Meng Jinyao hard.

This sudden slap shocked everyone present, and for a moment the whole scene fell into deathly silence.

After witnessing this scene, the city lord's wife's face instantly became extremely gloomy, as if water could drip out of it.

"Brother, you actually hit me for this woman! Could it be that the child in her belly is your own flesh and blood?"

Meng Jinyao widened her eyes and looked at her elder brother who slapped her in the face with disbelief. Her heart was instantly overwhelmed by grievance and pain.

All along, the eldest brother has been the one who loves and protects her the most.

When she was a child, no matter what difficulties and dangers she encountered, her eldest brother was always the first to rush out to protect her; when she grew up, her eldest brother also cared for her and obeyed her in everything.

But now, her elder brother slapped her mercilessly for an unrelated woman. How could Meng Jinyao accept this?

At this moment, Meng Jinyao felt so heartbroken that she felt like she was suffocating, tears welled up in her eyes and could fall at any time.

She bit her lips hard to prevent herself from crying out loud, but her slightly trembling body betrayed her inner sadness and despair.

At this time, Xue Jinhua also stopped and said, "Miss Meng, you must have misunderstood. This child has nothing to do with the city lord!"

However, her explanation sounded so pale and powerless to Meng Jinyao, who had already lost her mind.

Meng Jinyao was sure that Xue Jinhua was quibbling. How could she easily believe what this woman said?

Especially when she saw her elder brother standing beside Xue Jinhua without saying a word, the anger in Meng Jinyao's heart burned even more vigorously.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the city lord.

The city lord had a gloomy face and a frown on his face, as if he was thinking about how to deal with the chaotic situation.

Xue Jinhua stared at the city lord, her eyes full of worry; and the city lord's wife was so nervous that she clenched her hands tightly, and sweat oozed from her palms.

If it was true as Xue Jinhua said, that the child was not the city lord's biological child, then she might feel a little relieved.

After all, his failure to arrive on time that day could be attributed to an accident, or to his complete lack of knowledge of it.

However, things often develop unexpectedly.

At this moment, the city lord said solemnly: "No matter who this child belongs to, it has nothing to do with you."

Instead of offering any explanation, his tone became more serious. "I order you to apologize to her. Do you hear me?"

Meng Jinyao widened her eyes and looked at her elder brother in disbelief, tears instantly blurring her vision.

The grievances and pain that had been pent up in her heart for a long time finally burst out at this moment. She could no longer suppress her emotions, turned around and ran away crying.

Xue Jinhua frowned, "..."

Xue Jinhua frowned when she saw this, thinking to herself: The city lord's words are too vague. How can Meng Jinyao be convinced by such an unclear explanation? There is no doubt that she must think that the city lord is deliberately deceiving her.

Not only that, the mayor's wife was also present. If this matter could not be handled properly, then......

In short, Xue Jinhua didn't want to see such a situation at all.

So, he asked bluntly: "Lord City Lord, why don't you make it clear? The fetus in my belly has nothing to do with you!"

The city lord frowned tightly, forming a deep ravine. He remained silent, but cast his gaze at the city lord's wife beside him. The city lord's wife lowered her eyes slightly, avoiding the city lord's sight.

She bowed gracefully to the city lord and said softly, "I'll go see how the third young lady is doing first." After that, she turned around and left.

After the city lord's wife left, Xue Jinhua spoke again: "Lord City Lord, your explanation is so obvious that anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is clearly an attempt to cover up something, which will only deepen their misunderstanding of me..."

"But if you explain it clearly, won't you be subjected to all kinds of rumors and groundless accusations?"
