Sheng Xiaohong glared at Han Yuheng and shouted, "Don’t try to lie to me! Everyone saw that your brother brought my daughter away with him that day. It must be you who hid my daughter. Give her back to me!"
Bai Luyun was so angry that her eyesight went dark and she almost fainted. After she steadied herself, she gritted her teeth and said, "It was you who beat your daughter until she ran away. What does this have to do with my family?"
"I’m her mother, what’s wrong with me beating her? As long as you return her to me, this matter will have nothing to do with you. But if you insist on hiding her, then don’t blame me for reporting you to the officers for kidnapping my daughter." Sheng Xiaohong threatened.
Bai Luyun pointed her trembling fingers at her and asked angrily, "You have checked every place in my house. You have seen with your own eyes that your daughter is not here. What else do you want?"
Before Sheng Xiaohong could refute her words, Han Liling stood at the door of the bedroom and said, "My uncle took my cousin with him when he left for the county town that day."
Han Yuheng looked at his daughter, frowned, and said, "Liling, don’t talk nonsense. Why did your uncle take your cousin away with him?"
Han Liling shrugged and said, "I don’t know, but from what I heard, my uncle said he would bring my cousin to treat her ears."
Before the adults could comprehend her words, she added, "When I talk to my cousin, she can’t seem to hear me. Father, is my cousin deaf?"
When Bai Yulun heard what her daughter said, she glared at Sheng Xiaohong and said, "Listen to yourself. The person who took your daughter away is the second brother-in-law. If you want your daughter, go find him."
Sheng Xiaohong clenched her fists and said stubbornly, "I don’t care, it was your brother-in-law who took my daughter away. So, you must compensate me!"
Han Yuheng laughed angrily and said, "Sheng Xiaohong, how shameless can you be? Don’t forget that your husband had already been expelled from the Han family when he wanted to marry you. Logically speaking, we have nothing to do with you and your daughter. If it weren’t for my brother’s kindness, your daughter would probably be dead now, let alone get treatment. So, you’d better not push your luck."
Sheng Xiaohong snorted and said, "I never thought about marrying your cousin. That was his own decision. If it weren’t for him, I might have become Ling Yun’s wife now."
Hearing her words, Han Yuheng narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "We all know that the reason why my cousin married you was because he was a good man. That night, if he hadn’t taken a shortcut in a hurry, he wouldn’t have bumped into you taking a bath by the river and marrying a loose woman like you."
Han Yuheng looked her over from head to toe, with obvious disdain in his tone, he said, "He even had to raise a bastard’s daughter. If it weren’t for you, my cousin wouldn’t have died so miserably!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a loud slap sounded in the room. She touched her swollen face, looked at Bai Luyun with wide eyes, and said in disbelief, "You dare to hit me?" freewёbnoνel.com
