Lord, give up! Madam has too many vests

Chapter 380 Deformed Love

When she saw Old Master Qin suddenly sit up, propping himself up on his arms, Madam Qin was stunned for a couple of seconds before rushing over, her voice trembling.

"Dad! You...you're awake? This isn't a dream, is it?!"

Qin Shi could not hide his astonishment. Over the years, they had searched for famous doctors everywhere, but none of them could wake up his grandfather. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a turning point had arrived.

At this moment, only Yan Lan and the old man knew the truth of the matter.

Back then, Yan Lan took Chaochao away from Singapore and settled down in a place abroad, but she always kept Qin's old master's illness in her heart.

While in Singapore, Madam Qin obstructed her at every turn. She didn't even know where the old man was, so she could only secretly inquire about his whereabouts.

Over the past few years, while taking care of her children, she traveled to many countries to investigate, and finally found Mr. Qin, who had been hidden by Mrs. Qin under the guise of "secret treatment," in a secluded private sanatorium.

At that time, the old man was unconscious, and his body was already extremely weak due to the long period of coma.

It took Yan Lan two whole years of careful treatment before the old man finally slowly woke up.

Upon waking up, Old Master Qin heard Yan Lan talk about the situation in Singapore and recalled Shen Yunzhong's various actions. He immediately decided to temporarily conceal the news of Su Xing's awakening.

He wanted to pretend to still be unconscious and follow Shen Yun back to Xingzhou to see for himself how many conspiracies this "filial son-in-law" and his deceived wife were hiding, and to wait for an opportunity to completely expose their true colors.

"Dad, since you woke up so early, why didn't you tell us sooner!"

Madam Qin held her father's hand, tears streaming down her face.

Grandpa Qin gently patted his daughter's hand, then turned his gaze to Grandma Qin, whose face had turned pale, his tone full of disappointment.

"If I had told you earlier, how could I have seen the true colors of some people? You were kept in the dark by Shen Yunzhong time and time again, and even helped him to attack me. If it weren't for Yan Yatou risking her life to secretly save me, I would have been in trouble."

I'm afraid everyone is still in the dark, and you've already ruined my old life!

Shen Yunzhong's smug expression instantly crumbled. He quickly glanced at Old Madam Qin, his eyes pleading for help.

As the saying goes, experience is the best teacher. Although Madam Qin was startled by the unexpected awakening of the old man, she quickly suppressed her panic and regained her composure within seconds.

Her usually dignified and elegant face instantly showed a hint of grievance, and her voice softened: "Old man, how can you say that to me? Did Yan Lan tell you something? I'm your wife who has spent her whole life with you, how could I possibly harm you? There must be some misunderstanding about tonight, let me explain it to you slowly."

She was absolutely certain that no matter how powerful the old man was in the business world, he always doted on her. In the end, Madam Qin's "love-struck" nature was all inherited from him.

Even if the old man wakes up, as long as she explains properly, he will believe her sooner or later.

As she spoke, Madam Qin pretended to be concerned and took a step forward, trying to take Mr. Qin's hand and soften him with her usual warmth.

But Old Master Qin just snorted coldly. Before she could get close, he slowly got up, supported himself on the bedside armrest, reached out and opened the drawer of the bedside table, and took out a bottle of medicine.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his arm, and the bottle of medicine slammed hard against Old Madam Qin with a "smack".

Madam Qin has enjoyed countless honors and privileges throughout her life. When has she ever been treated so rudely?

She gasped, stumbled, and fell heavily to the floor with a thud.

The bottle of medicine also fell to the ground, the cap popped off, and the pills were scattered all over the floor.

Do you still recognize the medicine in here?

Pointing to the pills scattered on the ground, Old Master Qin's voice trembled slightly with anger, and his breathing became rapid. "These are the blood pressure medications I've been taking for over ten years! But when I went abroad to see you last time, someone secretly switched them!"

He paused, his gaze turning icy as he looked at Old Madam Qin: "My private nurses, inside and out, were all arranged by you. During that time abroad, besides you, who else had the opportunity to tamper with my medicine?"

Seeing this, Yan Lan quickly stepped forward, poured a glass of warm water and a blood pressure-relieving pill from the first-aid kit, and carefully fed it to Grandpa Qin, gently comforting him: "Grandpa, don't get agitated, speak slowly, taking care of your health is the most important thing."

Everyone then realized what was happening.

Back then, Old Master Qin went abroad specifically to discuss Yan Lan and Qin Shi's wedding with Old Madam Qin. However, due to the long journey, his blood pressure was already unstable. To make matters worse, his life-saving blood pressure medication was switched, which led to his near-death experience.

If Yan Lan hadn't found him and taken good care of him, he probably wouldn't have woken up long ago.

"Mom!" Madam Qin looked at the pills on the ground, then at her mother who had collapsed to the ground. Her face was deathly pale, and her voice was filled with disbelief and grief. "Why did you do this? He is your husband and my father! How could you be so cruel to him!"

To think that one's own mother harbored such wicked thoughts.

When Madam Qin saw the scattered pills on the ground, her face instantly darkened to a point where it seemed like water could drip from it.

She had clearly ordered these medicines to be destroyed long ago, so how did one bottle end up in Old Master Qin's hands?

Seeing this, Shen Yunzhong quickly stepped forward and carefully helped her up from the ground: "Mom, are you alright? Did you hurt yourself?"

"Why? You ask me why?" Old Madam Qin stared intently at Old Master Qin, her resentment, which had been building up for a lifetime, finally erupting. "Because I have never loved you from beginning to end! If it weren't for the turmoil back then, when all my family's assets were confiscated and I was left with nowhere to turn, how could I possibly have wronged myself by being with the son of a servant like you!"

As she spoke, she suddenly turned to look at Shen Yunzhong, the coldness in her eyes instantly fading, replaced by an intense tenderness, and her tone softened.

"The person I've always loved is Shen Pian'an, Yun Zhong's father. You were the executioner who interfered back then, ruining my entire life's happiness!"

His affectionate demeanor was a stark contrast to his earlier harshness, which shocked everyone present.

In her heart, she was a noble lady from a prestigious family, but she could only give herself to the "vulgar" Old Master Qin. Even though he later became incredibly wealthy, he was never her soulmate.

"Mom! How could you say that!"

Madam Qin trembled with rage, her face filled with indignation. "If Dad hadn't married you back then, you wouldn't be alive today! And Shen Pian'an? He couldn't even support himself, and in the end, he abandoned Shen Yunzhong in the orphanage!"

Yan Lan stood to the side, listening with alarm.

It was only at this moment that she learned that Shen Yunzhong's father was a man who indulged in all sorts of vices, including drinking, gambling, and whoring, and died young from a sexually transmitted disease.

But not only did Madam Qin cherish this man her whole life, she also transferred this distorted obsession to her son-in-law, Shen Yunzhong.

Madam Qin even went so far as to harm her own husband for his sake; such an absurd thing was hard for her to believe if she hadn't heard it with her own ears.

"Shut up! I won't allow you to talk about my Pian'an like that!"

Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, Old Madam Qin shrieked at Madam Qin, "He was clearly framed by this old man! If he hadn't refused to give Pian'an money for her business, how could Pian'an have associated with those scoundrels? And how could she have died so young! It's him, it's all his fault. He killed Pian'an!"

The old lady's voice was full of hatred.

When she first married Old Master Qin, she was unwilling to accept it and even secretly discussed eloping with Shen Pian'an.

But just then, she found out she was pregnant with Madam Qin's child, and one of Shen Pian'an's suitors was also pregnant, so the two of them couldn't get away from each other for a while.

“Pian’an told me to give birth to the child first, saying that once the child is born, I can use the child to blackmail you for a large sum of money to start his business.” Old Madam Qin said bitterly, “With his abilities, he will become rich like you sooner or later, and then he can take me away.”

But to her utter surprise, as soon as Madam Qin was born, Old Master Qin took the child away and raised her himself, refusing to let her hold her for even a little while longer.

Madam Qin cried and made a scene at home, but Grandpa Qin showed no mercy. In the end, he sent her abroad on the grounds that she needed to rest after childbirth, completely severing her contact with Shen Pian'an.

Less than a year after arriving abroad, news of Shen Pian'an's death reached us.

Madam Qin was heartbroken and directed all her hatred at Mr. Qin and her daughter. In a fit of anger, she simply refused to return to China and stayed abroad for twenty years.

“Until I returned to Singapore and saw the boyfriend that Sheng Sheng’s mother brought back.” Madam Qin turned to look at Shen Yunzhong, her eyes filled with tenderness again, as if she had grasped a lifeline. “He looks exactly like Pian An when she was young. My life, which had been gloomy all my life, suddenly seemed to brighten up.”

It was around that time that Old Woman Qin discovered that Shen Yunzhong was actually Shen Pian'an's son from back then.

"I will help Pian'an's son achieve what he couldn't get or accomplish back then."

So even though Old Master Qin strongly opposed it, Old Madam Qin used every means to facilitate the marriage between Madam Qin and Shen Yunzhong, and even went so far as to help Shen Yunzhong scheme for the Qin family's assets, simply because he was Shen Pian'an's son.

"I've told you everything I need to say. I don't want to live with you anymore. Let's get a divorce!"

The old lady Qin's face had lost all its usual warmth, leaving only arrogance, as if the embarrassing moment when she fell to the ground had never happened.

She stared at Old Master Qin, her tone self-righteous: "I've been married to you for decades, accompanied you through so many years, and even gave birth to a daughter for you. If we divorce, it's not unreasonable for me to take half of the Qin family's assets, is it?"

In fact, she had her plans perfectly clear in her mind. She had previously thought of controlling Madam Qin, and then using Madam Qin to control the entire Qin family business. Even if Old Master Qin became a vegetable, it wouldn't affect her.

But unexpectedly, Old Master Qin suddenly woke up, and in recent years, Madam Qin has been relentlessly pursuing a divorce, so Shen Yunzhong has been able to get less and less benefit from the Qin family.

Since she could no longer pretend, she decided to tear off the mask and decisively file for divorce. As long as she got half of the family property, she could give it all to Shen Yunzhong, thus fulfilling the promise she made to Shen Pian'an back then.
