Rebirth of the Superpower Queen

Chapter 147 How to compensate?

Ming Shunde's hand holding the teacup froze for a moment, then he pretended nothing had happened and slowly put the cup down. "What happened last time?"

"Haha, it seems that Mr. Ming is really old and has such a bad memory!" Mingzhu raised the corners of her mouth and always had a sarcastic smile on her face.

Meng Zhiling and others next to her did not interrupt. After all, some things had to be solved by Mingzhu herself so that she could let go of all the knots in her heart.

"Do you want me to remind you? You clearly knew that I was still alive, but how could you wait until now to take action?" Mingzhu narrowed her eyes and looked at Ming Shunde curiously, hiding the hysterical pain in her heart, revealing only questioning and resentment.

"Mingzhu, maybe there really is some misunderstanding between us!" Ming Shunde paused, but still spoke calmly.

Meng Zhiling was observing his micro-expressions from the side. What amazed her was that even she couldn't see through Shunde.

"Misunderstanding? Apart from you, Mr. Ming, who else in this world could have slipped past Ming Yi's eyes, quietly found me, and brought me to Linhai City? But you miscalculated a little in the end. I'm lucky enough to survive! Hahahaha..."

Mingzhu widened her eyes and spoke excitedly, unable to remain calm any longer. Once these topics were brought up, how could she continue to pretend nothing had happened?

Her shrill laughter echoed throughout the building, which was frightening and made Meng Zhiling, Ming Yi and others feel distressed!

"Mingzhu, if I say that I have never thought of taking your life and never want you to die, will you believe me?" Ming Shunde's mouth twitched, and he wanted to reach out and hold Mingzhu's hand, which was clenched in a fist because of excitement, but he finally held back.

asked softly.

"I believe it, how could I not believe it? If you really want me to die, I would not be alive until now, and I would not be standing in front of you today. Even if I could still appear in front of you, it must be my ghost or wronged soul coming to claim your life!" Mingzhu said the latter part, her voice deliberately low, with stubborn tears in her eyes, and she refused to let a single drop fall.

"Hahaha... why are you not talking? Don't you always say that as long as you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door? But, has my mother ever knocked on your door?" Mingzhu saw that Ming Shunde didn't answer, and after a burst of laughter, she continued to ask.

But when she mentioned her mother, Mingzhu could no longer hold back her tears, which suddenly welled up in her eyes, and she could no longer suppress the anger in her body.

"Come on, why don't you say anything?" Mingzhu gave him a few seconds to answer the question, but Ming Shunde was still sipping tea leisurely. Then Mingzhu yelled hysterically, with veins on his forehead exposed and his fists clenched tightly.

What I was thinking was, if I could beat him, I would really want to rush up and kill him with two punches.

"Mingzhu, you are too excited. Let's talk about it another day!" Ming Shunde looked at him, sighed helplessly, and said.

"Just tell me, were you involved in my mother's kidnapping last time?" Meng Zhiling looked at Mingzhu's dejected and powerless appearance, feeling very distressed. She walked up to Mingzhu, supported her shoulders, narrowed her eyes slightly, and exuded a dangerous aura.

When their eyes met, Ming Shunde's pupils flickered slightly and a fierce light appeared in his eyes.

"Girl, how do you talk to your elders like this?" Ming Shunde gradually loosened his clenched fists and spoke calmly.

"Elder? Who is the elder? I have endured and not killed you until now, which is already enough to give you face. Don't pretend to be kind in front of me." Meng Zhiling slapped the table and glared at Ming Shunde.

"Since you are Mingzhu's daughter, I don't care about your initial offense to me. Otherwise..."

"What else? Will my daughter suffer the same fate as my husband? Ming Shunde, sometimes I really want to dig out your heart to see what color it is. How can you be so cruel to your own family?" Before Ming Shunde could finish his words, Mingzhu took over.

All she could do was complain and complain. This little bit of resentment was not enough to express the physical and mental suffering Mingzhu had endured over the past twenty years.

"Mingzhu, you know very well that I was forced to do this back then. Now that you are all back, I have decided to compensate you well. Is that okay with you?" Ming Shunde didn't want to say any more to them. So many people witnessed this incident today. If it was not handled properly, the reputation of their Ming family would probably plummet. It had already been a hot topic because of Ming Yi and the fourth brother.

"Okay, I'm back. How are you going to compensate us?" Mingzhu nodded in surprise and looked at Ming Shunde seriously.

"Mom!" Meng Zhiling didn't know why she agreed so readily, but she could vaguely guess her purpose and was very worried. Anyway, she was against returning to the Ming family, and she was even more worried that Mingzhu would return to the Ming family and suffer a second harm from them.

"Okay, I made up my mind when I came here. Now that I'm back this time, I must deal with the past affairs before leaving. Zhiling, if you are willing, you can stay with your mother. If you don't want to, I won't force you." Mingzhu seemed to have calmed down a lot. She held Meng Zhiling's hand, smiled slightly, and signaled Meng Zhiling not to worry.

Meng Zhiling bit her lower lip, but finally nodded firmly, "What daughter isn't with her mother? Wherever you go, I'll go."

Of course, everyone in the room, except Qiao Surong who had a gloomy face, nodded in satisfaction at the result.

"Okay, then I will arrange for Sister Lin to take care of your daily life, mother and daughter. After all, she is the one who knows you best. If you need anything, you can tell me, or you can tell Mingjian. Mingjian is the eldest grandson of your uncle, and he should be about the same age as Zhiling." Ming Shunde raised his eyebrows. This was also the result he was happy to see, and he said lovingly at last.

"No need. If you have any problems in the future, just come to me directly. I will move back starting tomorrow." Ming Yi, who had been sitting next to him, had not said a word before he spoke slowly.

"Ming Yi, actually, there's no need!" Ming Zhu knew how much Ming Yi didn't want to return to this house, and how much he hated living with Ming Shunde and Old Lady Ming. But now, he was willing to come back. Ming Zhu knew that it must be for her. Over the years, in this life, she would always owe Ming Yi too much.

"Don't say anything. It's a happy decision. I'll send you back now, and then I'll pick you up tomorrow and we'll move back together." Ming Yi took Mingzhu's hand and pretended to leave.

"Ming Yi, wait a moment." Ming Shunde spoke, his tone full of seriousness.

"I know what you want to say, but do you think I will listen to you? You have no right to interfere with anything I decide." Ming Yi said coldly without turning his head, and then pulled Mingzhu out of the study.

However, Meng Zhiling was not in a hurry to leave. She and Ming Shunde looked into each other's eyes, neither of them willing to give in, and neither of them spoke first.

"Girl, is there anything else?" In the end, it was Ming Shunde who asked first. His impression of Meng Zhiling was actually not bad. Perhaps it was really just because of the blood relationship, or perhaps he felt that Meng Zhiling's personality was just like Mingzhu's mother when she was young. Anyway, he was just dissatisfied with her arrogance and disrespect for the elderly. As for the rest, the more he looked at her, the happier he liked her.

He is indeed a hundred times better than his nephew whom he loves so much.

"It's nothing. We will all live under the same roof from now on. Please take care of me, Mr. Ming." Meng Zhiling smiled slightly, then turned around and left with the silent Qiao Surong.

"Mengmeng, are you really going to move here?" Qiao Surong pouted, his tone revealing his dissatisfaction with the decision.

Meng Zhiling nodded. "I'm sorry I didn't discuss this with you in advance, but this is Mom's decision. From their conversation just now, I can guess that something must have happened twenty years ago that we don't know about. Mom must have her reasons for coming back, and there's no way I'd let her take this risk alone. Whether it's for the truth or for her safety, I must live with her in the Ming family."

"It doesn't matter. Just spend time with me when you have time and let me feel that you still love me." Although Qiao Surong said this generously, he was still not very happy in his heart. After all, they have been living together since they started dating and are used to being together. Now that they are separated all of a sudden, he feels reluctant and uncomfortable.

"That's right. Remember, if you dare to cheat when I'm not at home, watch out for your life." Meng Zhiling said at the end, making a scissors gesture with her hand and speaking harshly.

Qiao Surong just smiled faintly, put his arm around her waist, whispered "silly", and then walked towards the gate. Mingyi and Mingzhu were still waiting for them.

"Oh, isn't this the legendary aunt's daughter? Why is grandpa in such a hurry to go somewhere on his birthday today?" When Meng Zhiling and Qiao Surong were walking hurriedly past a pavilion, a voice suddenly sounded. It was very familiar and the tone was very mean.

"Hey, isn't this the legendary person who survived being beaten by me several times? What does it have to do with you where I go?" Meng Zhiling retorted sarcastically without even turning her head.

But it is indeed a legend. Among those who were attacked by Meng Zhiling, he was the only one who survived, because usually, Meng Zhiling would directly take the other person's life.

"Brothers, come on!" Ming Jian quietly took two steps back. In an instant, several men in black armed with steel rods surrounded Meng Zhiling and Qiao Surong.

The grandeur of the scene was so great that Ming Yi was so frightened that he hid behind a big tree.

Meng Zhiling just curled up the corners of her mouth into a faint smile.

"Brother Rong, I leave it to you." After Meng Zhiling said this, she rolled over with lightning speed and escaped from the encirclement of several people.

He flew directly behind the big tree where Ming Jian was hiding and admiring.

"What? Do all the members of the Ming family like to play tricks like this?" Meng Zhiling grabbed the collar of the unaware Ming Jian and lifted up the squatting man. She saw Ming Yi was stunned at first and trembling at last. Meng Zhiling smiled with satisfaction and threw him back to the ground with a bang.
