Chapter 471: Chapter 471 Outburst of Acting Skills

Shen Mianmian blinked. "Sister Shiping, as long as you can take what I say to heart, that’s good. I was afraid you’d think I was stirring up trouble and didn’t dare say much."

As she spoke these words, she herself felt like a snake in the grass, but to help Li Shiping break free from the Wan Family and avoid the path she took in the past life, she had to do it.

"Mianmian, you’re not stirring up trouble, you’re looking out for me, and I know that. It’s because I’m too timid that my mother-in-law bullies me." At first, she thought her mother-in-law had had too many hard times, and suddenly having it better, she hadn’t adjusted, which led to her behavior.

Only now did she realize that her mother-in-law saw she was easy to bully and did so on purpose.

Only two years into the marriage, and she was already feeling so oppressed. If this went on, she’d go mad one day.

Even for the sake of her daughter, her parents, and her brother, she couldn’t be bullied anymore.

"Sister Shiping, I’m glad you’ve come to realize this. If you couldn’t see it, nobody could help you." Behind Li Shiping stood the Li Family, and she lived in her own house. If she could just be a bit tougher, who from the Wan Family would dare to bully her?

Even if they weren’t happy about it, they would have to treat her like a goddess on the surface.

Li Shiping nodded, glanced at the clock on the wall, and stood up. "Mianmian, my daughter is still at home sleeping. She should be waking up by now. I’ll come visit you another time."

"Okay." Knowing that Li Shiping was worried about her child, Shen Mianmian didn’t keep her. She walked her to the door and watched her go downstairs before she closed the apartment door.

Li Shiping’s situation couldn’t be solved at once; it had to be taken one step at a time.

When Li Shiping got home, she was just about to knock when the door opened from the inside. Wan Dongcheng saw her, looked startled at first, then hugged her tightly.

"Shiping, where have you been? I looked all around for you and couldn’t find you. Do you know how worried I was?"

This hug, Li Shiping couldn’t remember how long it had been since she last experienced one, was caught off guard by Wan Dongcheng’s sudden care, throwing her completely off balance, forgetting the plan she had thought through on her way back.

She gently patted Wan Dongcheng’s back. "I just went out for a walk. You went out looking for me?"

"After you left, I sent my mother away and have been looking for you since," Wan Dongcheng said with concern.

Li Shiping was moved. The grievances she had endured and the words he spoke, she put them all behind her, feeling like she could embrace the whole world in an instant.

"Dongcheng, what’s been happening with you lately? You seem like a different person, so unfamiliar. I feel like I don’t even know you anymore."

"It’s all my fault. I wanted so badly to build a career and impress my parents, to give you a good life." Wan Dongcheng let go of Li Shiping and slapped himself on the face, "I’m no good, I’m just a loser."

"What are you doing?" Li Shiping grabbed his hand and gently touched his face, "Does it hurt?"

She felt as if the old Wan Dongcheng had returned.

"My face doesn’t hurt, my heart does," Wan Dongcheng said, poking his chest with a pained expression. "Shiping, do you know why I’ve been like this lately? I see how you used to live carefree, looking pretty every day, but ever since we got married, we’ve been scrapping by. I’m self-reproachful, I feel guilty, my heart aches for you, I even thought about returning you to your parents, letting you go back to your former life."
