Confessing To The School Queen In Front Of The Whole School - Chapter 48

Xie Meng was still confined in the hospital.

During this time, CEO Xie had been in contact with lawyers. Initially, she only planned to fight for her rightful interests, but now, she wanted those despicable man and mistress to suffer!

Heaven knows how terrified she was when Tao Yun took Xie Meng to the hospital and then called her.

If her daughter hadn’t been saved in time…

According to the recording, the mistress had even previously arranged a car accident!

Just recalling it made CEO Xie’s eyes, despite being a strong businesswoman, turn red. How many things had Xie Meng, this little unfortunate girl, been hiding from her!

The affair with that scoundrel Xia was one thing, but she didn’t even tell the family about the car accident!

She couldn’t bear to scold her, and Xie Meng was currently lying in a hospital bed, unable to move. As a mother, she was heartbroken.

CEO Xie made time to visit her daughter in the hospital.

Tao Yun was peeling an apple for Xie Meng. The apple skin was peeled thinly and lengthily. This child was very patient and had been staying by Xie Meng’s side these past few days.

She was also the one who saved Xie Meng in time.

CEO Xie was a little curious about how Tao Yun knew. She was still at school but seemed to have a premonition.

This kind of mysterious thing made CEO Xie start believing in certain concepts.

She didn’t know that the end of theology… was science.

System.

CEO Xie is outside.

Tao Yun paused her hand after getting the alert and looked towards the door.

CEO Xie’s heart skipped a beat. She hadn’t made a sound, so how did this child discover her!

She calmly walked into the ward, and seeing her daughter’s leg in a cast and an IV drip in her arm, her eyes watered again, and her attention was successfully diverted, preventing her from thinking about those things.

It was good that her daughter was fine.

CEO Xie’s heart was still a little flustered, and she wanted to sternly lecture Xie Meng.

Don’t be so brave next time! How old are you! The mistress told you to follow her, and you went along? Why didn’t you call home!

In the end, she softened and said nothing.

She sighed and took the apple from Tao Yun, starting to peel it. However, CEO Xie had never done this kind of thing before. The apple peel was cut into segments, and in her hurry, she simply cut off a large chunk, including some of the apple flesh.

CEO Xie nonchalantly fed the apple to Xie Meng: “Eat.”

Xie Meng looked at the apple core.

She knew she was wrong; she truly knew she was wrong!

Next time, she would absolutely not be so brave as to have CEO Xie visit her in the hospital and inflict this kind of torture!

It was Tao Yun who saw the situation and peeled a new apple for her.

Xie Meng naturally chose Tao Yun’s. She ate bite by bite. Tao Yun was very considerate, cutting it into small pieces for her.

CEO Xie was a bit embarrassed. She threw the apple core into the trash can: “You haven’t thanked Tao Yun yet. If she hadn’t saved you, would you even be eating apples?”

Xie Meng blinked: “Thank you, darling~”

CEO Xie: “…”

Tao Yun accepted the gratitude well, but was more reserved in front of CEO Xie, merely nodding modestly.

Who would have thought how many tricks she had secretly pulled while using the opportunity to take care of Xie Meng recently? However, in both their hearts, these were just signs of affection~

CEO Xie looked at the exchanged glances between the two: “…”

Their relationship is genuinely good, CEO Xie thought.

“Tao Yun, could you please go downstairs and get a meal for me?”

CEO Xie found an excuse to send Tao Yun away.

Tao Yun understood and went downstairs, leaving the space for the mother and daughter.

CEO Xie awkwardly asked: “Does your wound still hurt?”

Xie Meng: “…Not too much.”

It didn’t hurt at all.

It was just being unable to move that was troublesome.

It was embarrassing to say, but helping her wipe her body was supposed to be done by the nurse, but Tao Yun insisted on doing it personally. In short, she had seen her naked.

Even though Xie Meng’s skin had been thickened by experience, she still wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

When Tao Yun is old, she must take revenge for today! Xie Meng ground her teeth. She was physically fit and healthy, so Tao Yun would definitely be the one lying in bed first in old age.

Then, hmpf hmpf~

The fantasy was interrupted by a slap from CEO Xie.

Xie Meng complained: “Mom, my injury hasn’t healed yet.”

CEO Xie said mercilessly: “I didn’t use any force!”

She lowered her eyes. Her face held the unique charm of a woman nearing forty, and no matter how complex her feelings were, she maintained the composure of someone who had seen big scenes.

CEO Xie continued to feed Xie Meng apple.

After feeding her two bites, she found it annoying and decided to let Tao Yun continue feeding her.

She truly was patient with Xie Meng. Her daughter was better off with her than with those other brutes.

CEO Xie turned her head away, holding back the moisture in her eyes.

She took a deep breath: “While you’ve been in the ward, many relatives couldn’t visit. After you’re discharged, remember to thank them all one by one and reconnect with them.”

Xie Meng nodded.

She could imagine what a commotion the news of her being stabbed and hospitalized by her father’s mistress would cause.

And how many people were watching them become a laughingstock…

Originally, the Xia family was so perfect: the siblings were good-looking and clever, the parents were capable, and life was only about enjoyment. How many people envied them and visited to curry favor and seize opportunities.

After the divorce, CEO Xie, a woman raising two children, was already looked down upon, with everyone thinking that Father Xia would be the successful one.

But then, Father Xia’s mistress harmed the ex-wife’s daughter and sent her to the hospital…

The happy family was broken, and the tree fell, scattering the monkeys.

Apart from immediate family, those distant relatives, who superficially expressed shock and concern, were secretly watching the show.

CEO Xie was a bit overwhelmed, feeling irritated: “Your grandfather has severed ties with your dad. The old man was too emotional when he heard you were hospitalized and was admitted himself.”

CEO Xie also had to take care of Grandpa Xia.

It was all the fault of that scoundrel Father Xia!

Xie Meng was calm: “It’s nothing. We’ll take care of Grandpa from now on and kick Dad out. Oh, has he been released from the police station yet?”

CEO Xie sneered: “If he doesn’t get out, I can’t finalize the divorce easily!”

“The house and the savings all belong to us. His company is not running smoothly; there’s nothing to look forward to, and taking it would just be trouble.”

“Tsk.”

The displeasure came from CEO Xie.

“He also tried to find your grandfather, wanting to apologize and beg for forgiveness, not wanting to sever ties. But your grandfather was already hospitalized, so he was shut out. The other old men in the elderly home also stood up for your grandfather, so he had no chance.”

“He hasn’t even bothered with the mistress lately. Heh.”

“Cheating? True love? Is this all it is?”

Once CEO Xie started talking, she couldn’t stop.

The emotions she had suppressed for a long time finally found an outlet and surged out.

“Actually, I met that scoundrel Xia through an arranged introduction; there was no real affection…”

“You did very well in this regard, finding someone you genuinely like.” Seeing her daughter happy, CEO Xie was somewhat emotional: “How could I have been so blind back then? I thought I was in my career’s ascending period, my family was pushing me, and I happened to meet your dad. He didn’t mind that my focus was on work, so I decided we could just be partners and live a respectful life.”

“It didn’t matter if he didn’t come home; there was no affection anyway. All I cared about was you and your brother.”

“Now that I think about it, getting married was a mistake…”

But if you hadn’t gotten married, my brother and I wouldn’t exist.

Xie Meng didn’t dare to say it.

That would be adding fuel to the fire, sticking a knife into her mother’s heart.

She was still a good daughter and knew better.

Tao Yun came up from downstairs carrying a lunch box.

CEO Xie had been very busy lately and hadn’t eaten properly. Smelling the food, she genuinely felt a little hungry.

After another period of time in the hospital, Xie Meng really couldn’t keep up the pretense anymore. She longed for freedom, the sky, the freedom to breathe on the street, and the school’s convenience store.

So, after staying in the hospital for half a month, the doctor noticed that the patient was recovering incredibly fast.

She had been so severely injured back then, and her rescue was simply a blessing from heaven. Who would have thought that after waking up, the self-healing speed of her wounds would also be so rapid!

It was practically a medical miracle!

The doctor, with a gentle expression, added Xie Meng as a friend, and the look in his eyes gave Xie Meng goosebumps.

She really didn’t want this kind of ‘special attention.’

Xie Meng was pushed out of the hospital entrance in a wheelchair by Tao Yun.

She… had been immobile for half a month and had somewhat forgotten how to walk.

Embarrassing.

To alleviate this embarrassing feeling, Xie Meng asked daily: “Has the System left?”

Tao Yun: “It hasn’t.”

Xie Meng’s discharge was timely. CEO Xie’s strong executive power meant that only half a month later, it was already time for the mistress’s sentencing.

Without makeup, this woman, whose features were vulgar, was not attractive and not even half as good-looking as CEO Xie.

She was escorted into the courtroom in handcuffs. Seeing Xie Meng sitting well in a wheelchair, she became emotional: “Why aren’t you dead yet! I clearly tried to kill you twice!”

The person holding her down tightened their grip, preventing her from struggling, so she could only stare intently at Xie Meng.

She had clearly tried to kill Xie Meng twice!

The first time was a fluke, but what about the second time!

This person must be a demon! A demon who crawled out of hell to seek revenge on her!

The mistress started to panic, more afraid than being sentenced. She struggled desperately: “Let go of me! If you don’t let go, I’m going to die!”

Her insane ravings made everyone frown, their expressions scornful.

Now she knows fear? Why wasn’t she afraid when she acted back then!

The victim was still a student! With such a vicious heart, didn’t she ever think that retribution would come for her that day! The act of harming the ex-wife’s daughter just to climb the social ladder aroused the anger of most people.

It was too shameless; was she even human!

They hoped the law would not let her off!

CEO Xie said coldly: “Don’t try to feign insanity to escape. I want you to give my daughter an explanation!”

“And all your other crimes!”

Justice has long arms.

Why was this woman, who had been so bold before, chickening out now! It was absolutely ridiculous!

The mistress’s movements began to slow down; she knew she couldn’t escape.

Since that car accident, no, even longer ago—it was because she had been arrogant for too long, thinking she could really be above the law!

She swallowed, thinking, Calm down. What is sentencing? As long as I can avoid Xie Meng, she… she is no longer human! Thinking this, the mistress began to anticipate the sentencing, which genuinely made her seem crazy.

But she couldn’t escape it.

Prison wouldn’t be her haven either; she would only spend the rest of her life in fear.

Well, the various crimes were too severe: life imprisonment.

May she spend the rest of her life in that place, consumed by fear.

The mistress’s emotional changes were being narrated by the System.

For some reason, it spoke significantly more with Tao Yun, only mentioning ‘System principles’ when with Xie Meng.

Pah, double standard dog.

Xie Meng asked her daily question: “Has the System left?”

Tao Yun: “Hmm, no.”

Xie Meng’s discharge was very timely. Thanks to CEO Xie’s strong execution, only half a month later, it was already the day of the mistress’s sentencing. The matter was concluded. Xie Meng successfully missed the sports day and couldn’t even go to school that day.

Seeing the various photos Su Hui posted, she was filled with regret—

Tao Yun returned to school for regular classes. The school pretended not to know or forgot about the broadcast room incident.

She became even busier with her studies and came to the Xie family after school to tutor Xie Meng.

Xie Ning came home from school: “Actually, I can do it too, really.”

Xie Meng, who had a girlfriend, forgot her brother: “I know you can, go upstairs.”

“Go back quickly! Don’t interrupt us!”

Xie Ning: “Then why don’t you go back to the room…”

He saw Xie Meng blush, and his intuition told him not to ask any more questions.

Xie Meng looked shyly at Tao Yun. Needless to say, if they went back to the room, it wouldn’t be tutoring anymore.

The two of them couldn’t help but kiss each other, and their minds weren’t focused on the textbooks.

The living room was better. Textbooks for various subjects were spread across a table, easily creating a study atmosphere. Even Aunt Zhang, seeing this, would quietly walk away, smiling to herself.

Be thankful, Xie Ning, that you didn’t ask more.
