“Little bastard, you’re despicable.” She charged forward and grabbed the clothes fork, pulling it abruptly. Although she lacked strength, she managed to snatch the fork away.

With a swing, she aimed at the two little rascals.

“Xiaoxiao, be careful.” Coco immediately stepped forward and shielded Xiaoxiao behind her.

Wu Lili swung the clothes fork and struck him hard.

“Brother!” Xiaoxiao cried out in fear.

Despite the searing pain from his shoulder to his arm, Coco ignored it and shouted at Wu Lili, “Wicked witch, I’ll report you for child abuse, and you’ll go to jail.”

“Wow, little brat, you know quite a bit. Too bad, you three probably don’t have what it takes to bring charges against me.” Wu Lili sneered coldly, raising the clothes fork again, poised to strike Coco.

Suddenly, the door swung open from the outside.

Shen Ning walked in with a bag of fresh vegetables.

“Stop!” As soon as she entered, she saw Wu Lili raising the clothes fork to strike Coco’s head. Her heart nearly leaped out of her chest in terror, and her anger surged like a bursting dam. With a fierce shout, she charged forward, snatching the clothes fork and striking back at Wu Lili.

She could tolerate being hit herself, but hitting her child was crossing a line.

She’d rather die than let anyone bully her child even a little!

The clothes fork struck Wu Lili harshly!

Who cared if she was her second aunt? If she hit her child, she would be her enemy for generations!

“Shen Ning, you wretched woman! Didn’t you say you wouldn’t take a single cent from the Shao family? Take out the money your grandmother gave you, or else, I won’t let this go.” After taking several blows herself, Wu Lili finally seized the moment and aggressively snatched back the clothes fork. The two of them struggled against each other, and she cursed fiercely at Shen Ning.

Shen Ning hesitated, realizing the reason behind Wu Lili’s turmoil. It seemed she was after the golden card her grandmother had secretly given her—a million dollars.

She hadn’t even planned to keep that million; she was about to return it to her grandmother when the time was right.

“I told you, I won’t take a single cent from the Shao family. But since you hit my child, 1 won’t spare you.” Shen Ning, like an enraged lioness, was ready to tear the woman apart.

How could she bring herself to harm such a gentle and cute little family?

“You won’t take it? That sounds nice.” Wu Lili sneered, “During your time in the U.S., your grandmother sent you money every month. At first, 1 didn’t know who she was sending it to, but I realized it when you returned to the capital. However, after discovering this secret, I intercepted all the money on its way to you.”

Shen Ning was stunned.

So her grandmother had been sending her money every month while she was in the U.S. The first two years, she had indeed received the money. But afterward, she hadn’t received anything, and she had worked hard outside to support herself.

She never knew who had sent her that money during those two years. It was her grandmother!

“Shen Ning, you’re raising a wild man’s child. Why should the Shao family take the blame? It’s only right for me to claim the money. There’s nothing wrong with it.” Wu Lili asserted righteously, her tone aggressive and forceful.

Shen Ning’s heart ached, her eyes burning like hot coals.

She lowered her head, paused, and then spoke coldly, “Fine, wait here. I’ll get it for you.”

Dropping the clothes fork, she went to the study and retrieved the black document bag her grandmother had given her. From inside, she took out the gold card and walked back toward Wu Lili.

“Here, this is the gold card my grandmother gave me. There’s a million on it. I never used it. I intended to return it to her. But now that you’ve come for it, take it. This incident with my child, I’ll let it slide. From now on, we’re done. No more ties between us.”

She tossed the bank card to Wu Lili, speaking with icy detachment.

“The PIN is written on the back of the card.”

Wu Lili quickly caught the glittering gold card, her eyes gleaming as she caressed it..
