Dongfang Mu was so angry that he wanted to kick the guy in front of him. It turned out that his daughter had suffered so many grievances over the years. What kind of thing was he? What right does he have to treat his daughter like this?

It turned out that if it wasn’t for the fact that he was still alive and didn’t want him to suffer and didn’t want him to suffer, she wouldn’t choose to live long and continue to suffer from neglect and humiliation. and dare not show it in front of him.

He was incompetent as a father!

Dongfang Mu sniffed and swallowed the sourness he felt, then he said: “Don’t talk nonsense anymore, let’s go to the Ministry of Revenue.”

Pei Qinghan bent his knee and knelt in front of Dongfang Mu: “Father-in-law, I was wrong. I really knew I was wrong. I used to be stupid. I was instigated by others but didn’t know it. Now I understand it. You can’t let me separate with Wan’er, you can’t! Father-in-law—I beg you!” He kowtowed in front of Dongfang Mu. He banged his head so loud which made his head instantly turned red.

Dongfang Wan frowned and took a step back.

The Pei Qinghan in her memory was a face-loving person. No need to mention kneeling and kowtowing on the crowded street, he would be unhappy even if someone spoke loudly to him.

Dongfang Mu was about to turn around and leave, but he heard Bai Zhi ask: “You said you were instigated and manipulated, who is that person? How did that person instigate you?”

Dongfang Wan, who had been looking away, also turned her head back and swept her eyes on the kneeling Pei Qinghan. This was also what she had always wanted to know. She once asked Pei Qinghan about this, but he didn’t say anything.

Pei Qinghan raised his hand, wiped away the tears on his face, and said while choking: “It’s Song Hexiang, she lied to me, she said, she said–”

There were some things he has held in his heart for more than ten years but has never been able to say them.

Dongfang Mu said angrily: “If you have something to say, just say it. If you don’t want to say it, then get out of here!”

Pei Qinghan didn’t dare to hesitate anymore and said: “She said, Wan’er gave birth to a full-term baby and not premature!”

Dongfang Mu didn’t react for a while, he didn’t understand his meaning. However, he saw Dongfang Wan staggered a step. Fortunately, the maidservant and Zhi’er were beside her and supported her.

Dongfang Wan was so angry that her chest hurts. She almost fainted. Her finger trembled as she pointed it at Pei Qinghan: “Just because she said that, you believe it?”

Pei Qinghan said: “She bought the midwife who delivered the baby. I asked the midwife. She also said that the child was full-term and was not born prematurely at all. At that time, I didn’t know how I was bewitched by her. I, I really should die!” As he said, he slapped himself severely.

“You really deserve to die. You have no basic trust in your wife. It is no wonder that we ended up like this today. Pei Qinghan, you are not innocent.”

Dongfang Wan then grabbed Bai Zhi’s hand and then said: “I only pity my child. You have separated us for 13 years. Do you know how much my child has suffered over the years?”

Dongfang Wan started crying as she talked, her tears couldn’t stop. These days, Zhao Lan talked a lot of things about Bai Zhi. Their sufferings, mother, and daughter over the years was something she didn’t want to think about. Yes, even Bai Zhi almost died several times.

She, Dongfang Wan’s daughter was supposed to live the same as the young noble ladies in the capital. No need to mention glory and wealth, but at least she would grow up healthy and carefree.

But her daughter grew up in hardship and endless torture. Even the children of the old maidservants in their mansion lived better than her.
