Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All Chapter 1362 - 1222_3

"Uncle, did Mother entrust you with any message for me?" The driver, Lu Sheng, was a handsome twenty-five-year-old man, yet it wasn’t unusual for the thirteen-year-old Ming Wei to address him as uncle.

Lu Sheng replied with a shake of his head, "Miss Kang only tasked me with delivering these items to you. She didn’t mention anything else."

Upon hearing this, Ming Wei's spirits immediately sank. "I understand. Goodbye, Uncle."

"Goodbye."

Lu Sheng uttered this as he opened the car door and settled into the driver's seat.

Ming Wei watched the elegant black luxury car depart. Turning, she lowered her head and walked into the courtyard. Just then, Han Qian's mocking voice reached her ears:

"Already feeling regretful, are we? Weren't you dead-set on being ungrateful, staying with your birth mother and leeching off our household? It hasn't been long, and now you miss your stepmother's tender care!

Serves you right. If I were your stepmother, I wouldn't want anything to do with you either. Your stepmother is probably celebrating at home right now, setting off firecrackers because you, the ungrateful brat, have finally departed."

However, Ming Wei acted as if Han Qian's words were mere air; she simply continued her path toward the living room.

"Are you deaf?"

Witnessing this, Han Qian grew incensed and stepped forward, blocking Ming Wei's way. "Didn't you hear me speaking to you?"

After gazing at Han Qian steadily for a moment, Ming Wei intended to walk past her. Unexpectedly, Han Qian's temper flared, and she spread her arms wide, physically preventing Ming Wei from moving forward. She glared fiercely and declared, "Why are you just like your shameless birth mother, insisting on freeloading in my home? Does my family owe you anything, for you and your mother to harm my father and me?"

"A good dog doesn't block the path."

Ming Wei directed this barb at Han Qian.

"Who are you calling a dog?"

Han Qian's face turned icy.

"Whoever responds is the one!"

Ming Wei met Han Qian's gaze with a calm demeanor, an attitude that only fueled Han Qian's rage further. Without hesitation, Han Qian raised her hand to strike Ming Wei's face. "I'm going to teach you a lesson, you shameless creature. You clearly have your own home, yet you insist on staying here with your birth mother in my house. You're both reincarnations of vixens, intent on exploiting my family. But I'm sorry, I won't let you succeed!"

She continued her tirade, but before Han Qian's hand could reach Ming Wei's face, it was caught firmly by Ming Wei. "I am not refraining from arguing with you out of fear. I am simply too lazy to waste my breath on you.

Now, listen carefully. It is not I who wish to reside in your house; it is my mother who wants me here with her. Since my mother and your father are married, her presence here is entirely legitimate.

If you find this disagreeable, have your father expel my mother. Then, we shall see if I linger here for even a moment longer!"

"Let go of me!"

Han Qian struggled fiercely but was unable to break free from Ming Wei's grip. She retorted angrily, "Your birth mother and my father are not actually married. My father hasn't legally wedded her; she shamelessly latched onto my father and moved into our home. With a mother like that, you're bound to become a cheap woman clinging to men in the future..."

"Slap!"

A sharp, clear sound echoed.

Ming Wei had slapped Han Qian. "Is vulgarity your favorite pastime?"

"Brother, this merely demonstrates Father's benevolence and doesn't confirm that Vivi and I are Father's biological children."

Ming Han felt an increasing sense of sorrow and uttered, "I am thirteen now, no longer an ignorant child. If everything I've heard is true, how can I possibly continue my studies?"

"Try not to dwell on such thoughts; these are all adult matters. They don't truly concern us," Min Rui said, a hint of guilt in his tone.

They are unrelated?

Are you certain?

If that woman is indeed as Luo Minghan described, gossip will soon surround them, and even his father will become the subject of whispers.

After all, to have children born by one's wife but belonging to another, and to foolishly raise them for over a decade, is a profound humiliation for any man.

Contemplating this, Min Rui experienced a sudden wave of unease, but he quickly shook his head. No, he refused to believe the woman would be so foolish as to betray his father and bear children who were not his bloodline.

As for the resemblance he and his brother Ming Han shared with another man, it was, as he had previously surmised, simply a case of many people in the world looking alike, which didn't imply any familial connection.

After a brief period of self-reassurance, Min Rui spoke to Ming Han again. "Alright, I've heard of instances where two individuals bear an uncanny resemblance, almost like twins, living in the same city yet having no relation whatsoever. You merely resemble another person's father from his youth, which signifies absolutely no problem."
