The sound was ear-piercing. Wu Mei couldn’t help but move her phone a little further away from her ear.
Her lips curled up coldly.
As expected, the Host’s biological father didn’t treat her as a human. He only treated her as a money tree.
It was said that with a stepmother, there would be a stepfather. Indeed, after marrying her stepmother, Wu Pang’s attitude towards her became worse. He rarely contacted her except to ask her for money.
As long as the Host went home alone, her family would hit and scold her. The Host didn’t dare to fight back or complain.
Thinking of this, Wu Mei couldn’t help but feel a little depressed. Perhaps the Host’s emotions were acting up.
“Speaking of good-for-nothing, shouldn’t you reflect on yourself?” Wu Mei mocked him mercilessly. “My maternal grandfather gave you the company in good condition, but you caused him to incur a loss of 50 million yuan. Yet you’re coming to me for money. Who’s the good-for-nothing?”
“You!”
Wu Pang did not expect her to talk back and was stunned.
There were a few seconds of silence on the other end of the line. Only Wu Pang’s laboured breathing could be heard. After a while, he finally snapped, “Get back home! We’ll talk then!”
“You think you’re all grown up. Don’t forget that your mother is still in the sanatorium!”
With that, he hung up.
Wu Mei narrowed her eyes. The Host did have a biological mother who had been sent to a sanatorium due to a mental illness.
Is Wu Pang threatening her with this now? Looks like she has to make this trip, be it to retrieve her ID or for something else.
…
An hour later, a luxurious Maybach stopped outside the Wu Family’s villa.
The car door opened and a long, straight leg covered in black boots stepped out first.
“Wait for me here.”
Wu Mei casually tidied her curly hair and fiery red skirt. “I’ll get my ID and come back down soon.”
Seated in the backseat, Li Nanchen nodded briefly.
Without further ado, Wu Mei entered the yard, raised her hand, and knocked on the door.
This was her own home, yet she still had to knock on the door. How ironic.
Soon, a servant opened the door.
At a glance, Wu Mei saw a few people in the living room. Her father, Wu Pang, her stepmother, Yang Shan, and her stepsister, Wu Yi.
Hah, everyone is here.
Hearing the sound, the three people sitting on the sofa looked at her with dark expressions, especially Wu Pang, whom she had just talked back to.
Wu Mei pretended not to see it and got straight to the point, “Where’s my identity card?”
Wu Pang clenched his teeth and narrowed his eyes dangerously. “What do you need your identity card for?” he asked suspiciously.
Before Wu Mei could answer, Yang Shan suddenly sprang up from the sofa and took two steps closer to her. Staring at Wu Mei’s neck, Yang Shan looked like she had discovered the New World.
“You slept with Li Nanchen, didn’t you?”
Seeing her hickey, Yang Shan turned to Wu Pang and said excitedly, “Hubby, this d*mn girl is sleeping with Li Nanchen! She must have gotten the money. Quick, ask her to save us, save our company!”
Wu Pang relaxed and said, “Now that you have the money, hurry up and hand it over.”
Wu Mei did not speak.
Wu Yi, on the other hand, was so angry that her eyes turned red. “Shameless b*tch! You slept with a man just to get money!”

She simply could not accept that her outstanding brother-in-law actually slept with this b*tch!
Soon, the three years of their contractual marriage would be over. At that time, she would be able to kick Wu Mei aside and take her place!

Wu Mei glanced at Wu Yi, who was unable to conceal the jealousy in her eyes.
Tsk, yearning for your brother-in-law?
Leisurely leaning against the door, she said, “How is it shameless for me to sleep with my own husband? On the contrary, it’s more shameless for some people to think about sleeping with someone else’s husband.”

Wu Yi’s thoughts were exposed and she wanted to slap Wu Mei. “B*tch, I’ll smash your mouth in!”
Wu Mei simply looked at her mockingly and grabbed her hand in one move.
She was extremely strong and Wu Yi cried out.
Loathing flashed across Wu Mei’s eyes. Then, she turned to Wu Pang.
“Li Nanchen has already signed a divorce agreement with me. Give me my identity card. When I successfully get a divorce, I’ll consider splitting some money with you. If you don’t take it, you can go and rob a bank if you want money.”

“You…”
Wu Pang was furious.
On the contrary, Yang Shan’s eyes lit up and she said, “Sure!”
She hurriedly pulled Wu Pang back and earnestly persuaded him, “Hubby, let her get a divorce! Let Yiyi marry him instead! Li Nanchen is such an outstanding man, how can she be worthy of him? Only our Yiyi is worthy of him!”
Wu Yi’s eyes lit up when she heard this.
However, Wu Pang frowned and said, “No.”
He was all too clear that this marriage was arranged by Old Master Li and that Old Master Li was only pleased with Wu Mei.
Wu Pang wanted to marry Wu Yi over, but the other side probably wouldn’t accept it.
“Why not?”
Wu Yi yelled in disappointment, “Dad, just let me go. I’m willing to marry Brother-in-law for the sake of the company’s funds! This b*tch is so useless. She didn’t get any money even after sleeping with Brother-in-law. If I go, I can definitely do it… Ah!”
She suddenly let out a blood-curdling scream.
This was because with a cold expression on her face, Wu Mei had raised her hand and ruthlessly slapped Wu Yi’s face !
