Chapter 10: Unblessed Relationship 3
"Why is it you?"
The atmosphere in the box dropped to freezing point. Father Qian held the back of the chair with trembling hands, looked at Father Pei and questioned.
Qian Mengmeng was completely confused. She looked at Pei Haochuan, then at her father, and asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"Mengmeng, come here," Mother Wen said coldly as she pulled Qian Mengmeng to her side. She looked at Father Pei and said, "I should have thought of it a long time ago. I heard from Yu Zheng that Mengmeng's boyfriend's surname is Pei. This city is not that big. How many people with the surname Pei have rich families? I didn't expect it to be you. I really didn't expect it to be you!"
"Auntie...what happened?" Qian Mengmeng stood next to Wen's mother. She had no idea what was going on. Why did her father and Aunt Wen get so angry just after she brought Pei Haochuan and his father to the box, and they were pointing the finger at Pei's father?
After being glared at by Qian's father and Wen's mother, Pei's father nodded and said, "Yes, I should have known it a long time ago. Mengmeng's last name is Qian, and she looks so much like her mother. No wonder..."
"Don't mention her mother!"
Father Qian suddenly became excited. He rushed to Father Pei and grabbed his collar. "Her mother was killed by you! She was killed by you, an ungrateful bastard!"
"What?" It was like a bolt from the blue. Qian Mengmeng looked at her father in disbelief.
Pei Haochuan was even more shocked: "Uncle, what are you talking about?"
Mother Wen grabbed Qian Mengmeng and glanced at Pei Haochuan: "What are you talking about? You said that Mengmeng's mother was killed by your father! The man who didn't pay back the debt and made Mengmeng's father a guarantor and shouldered a huge debt was your father!"
"how so……"
Qian Mengmeng's legs went soft and she sat on the chair in the box.
Pei Haochuan was shocked beyond words.
"I was wrong about what happened back then," Dad Pei was held by Dad Qian by the collar. He looked down at Dad Qian and said in a sad voice, "I'm sorry. I made you and Mengmeng suffer. I'm really... sorry."
"What's the point of saying sorry now?" Qian's father roared, "If you say sorry, will Mengmeng's mother come back? If you say sorry, can it make up for the suffering Mengmeng and I have endured over the years? It's all because of you! It's all because of you!"
"I'm sorry," Pei's father closed his eyes in pain, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I know it's useless to say anything now, but I'm really sorry."
"I don't need your apology!" Father Qian let go of his collar and pushed Father Pei, causing him to stagger. He took Qian Mengmeng's hand and said, "I will never let my daughter be with your son. Tell your son to give up on this idea!"
Father Qian pulled Qian Mengmeng and walked out the door. Mother Wen also glared at Father Pei and went out.
On the contrary, Wen Yuzheng walked slowly to Pei Haochuan, and before Pei Haochuan could react from the shock, he said sarcastically: "Will you appear in her life again in the future?"
Pei Haochuan looked at him speechlessly.
Wen Yuzheng smiled softly: "The photo in your father's wallet is exactly the same as the photo in Mengmeng's family album. Pei Haochuan..." Wen Yuzheng looked down at him with a scornful smile in his eyes, "It's really fate that you and Mengmeng can't be together in this life."
"You..." Pei Haochuan clenched his fists, his eyes gleaming with anger, but after a while, he gradually released his fists and looked at Wen Yuzheng with contempt and indifference, "You already knew all this, so you took great pains to call me and my dad over, just to break up Mengmeng and me, right?"
Wen Yuzheng's eyes condensed, and he pretended to be calm and said, "So what? Mengmeng's mother's matter is a knot in her heart. Even if I don't tell her, you and her will not have a good result."
"You like Mengmeng too, right?" Pei Haochuan suddenly said.
"You..." Wen Yuzheng's eyes flashed with a gleam of light.
Pei Haochuan looked at him knowingly, took a step back, and looked at Wen Yuzheng with pity.
"No," he shook his head gently, "Even so, Mengmeng won't like you."
"What do you mean?" Wen Yuzheng's eyes gradually turned cold.
"You don't know what she wants at all, and you don't really love her. If you really loved her, you wouldn't hurt her like this."
Pei Haochuan stepped back step by step. When he finished speaking, he turned around, opened the door of the box, turned his head slightly, and said softly: "Wen Yuzheng, you are really pitiful."
Pei Haochuan waited for Qian Mengmeng downstairs in the community where she lived. At this time, Qian's father was walking angrily with Qian Mengmeng. When he saw Pei Haochuan, he became furious. He glared at Pei Haochuan fiercely and was about to pull Qian Mengmeng over, but Qian Mengmeng's hand was held by Pei Haochuan.
Pei Haochuan had a pleading look on his face: "Uncle, I want to talk to Mengmeng for a few words, please, okay?"
"I won't let you be with my daughter! Give up on this idea!" Father Qian said angrily.
Pei Haochuan's eyes darkened, but he still said firmly: "Uncle, I just want to talk to Mengmeng for a few minutes, no, one minute, okay?"
"You..." Dad Qian wanted to scold again, but was stopped by Qian Mengmeng. She stood in front of Dad Qian and said coldly: "Dad, you go back first, it's okay."
"Mengmeng..." Father Qian looked at her.
"I'll be back soon." Qian Mengmeng said in a low voice.
Father Qian glanced at Qian Mengmeng, then finally turned away angrily.
When Qian's father's figure was far away, Qian Mengmeng turned around. She faced Pei Haochuan but didn't look at him: "Okay, my father is gone, just tell me what you want to say."
"Mengmeng," Pei Haochuan anxiously grabbed Qian Mengmeng's shoulders, but she pushed him away calmly. Pei Haochuan looked at her with heartache, "Mengmeng, I didn't know that was your mother. I'm sorry, really sorry."
"What's the point of you saying sorry now?" Qian Mengmeng looked at him coldly, her dark eyes devoid of emotion. "I will not forgive what your father did back then, and I don't think that a few simple words of apology from you can make up for the pain my father and I have suffered over the years."
Qian Mengmeng took a breath, and she looked at Pei Haochuan in a condemning manner: "Do you know what it feels like to be without a mother? Do you know what it feels like to go from heaven to hell? Do you know that for so many years, I have always wanted to ask why, why it was not us who did the wrong thing, but in the end it was us who suffered the consequences? It became my mother? And the instigator of all this is your father, it's all because of him!"
Pei Haochuan hugged her: "I know, I know everything." The boy's gentle words rang in her ears, and Pei Haochuan gently stroked Qian Mengmeng's back.
"My mother has been gone since I can't remember anything. Later, your mother came into my life. When I was little, although I didn't know who your mother was, she was very kind to me, and I regarded her as my own mother, Mengmeng, I know. I know how it feels to be without a mother, and I know even more how it feels to lose a mother..." He lifted Qian Mengmeng from his arms and looked at her with sincere eyes, "Mengmeng, I'm sorry, I apologize to you for everything my father has done. Please give me a chance to atone for my sins to you for my whole life, okay?"
"No."
Qian Mengmeng lowered her head and a cold voice sounded.
"Meng Meng?"
"My mother was actually at your house when she ran away from home, right?" Qian Mengmeng raised her head and looked at Pei Haochuan coldly, "Your father clearly knew where my mother was. He was my father's good friend. During that time, our whole family was looking for my mother like crazy. Why didn't he tell her? Because she did something wrong, he doesn't care about our lives, right? My mother was clearly at your house!"
Qian Mengmeng broke free from Pei Haochuan's embrace and yelled, "Is it because you want to make up for the missing maternal love for you? Or do you think that we have been deceived like fools once, so he doesn't care at all? I will not forgive you, and I will not give you this opportunity to atone for your sins."
Finally, she looked at Pei Haochuan coldly: "Let's break up."
"No!" Pei Haochuan growled in pain.
"Whether you agree or not," Qian Mengmeng said emotionlessly, "from now on, we will never meet again."
