Chapter 728: Chapter 720 Unwilling to Reconcile Chapter 728: Chapter 720 Unwilling to Reconcile But the moment she stepped out and saw the man sitting inside, the joy on her face was instantly drained away.
“Why is it you?”
She shook her head in disbelief.
Yeah, why was it him?
How could it possibly be him, Tang Zhinian, and not Wei Tian?
Shouldn’t it have been Wei Tian who came over?
Shouldn’t it have been Wei Jiani who came over?
Why wasn’t it them?
Hadn’t they come to find her, to take her out yet?
“Are you thinking that Wei Tian will come to rescue you in a while?”
Tang Zhinian placed his hand on the table and gently started tapping.
The look of a successful person also made Sang Zhilan’s eyes almost turn red with jealousy.
Even though they were so wealthy at home, they still clung to that prescription and wouldn’t let it go.
So she hadn’t done anything wrong; even if she had beaten Tang Yuxin, she hadn’t done anything wrong, it was all Tang Yuxin’s fault.

Yes, it was all Tang Yuxin’s fault for not giving her the prescription.
Someone behind pushed Sang Zhilan, and she stumbled forward a great step, nearly falling to her death.
She barely managed to right herself, but one look at Tang Zhinian’s cold indifference, and she fully grasped that the Tang Zhinian of now was no longer the one she could mold and manipulate at will.
The old Tang Zhinian was naive, or one might say brainless, but now his intelligence was fully online.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to build those towering, profitable skyscrapers, and the amount in his hands was far more than mere millions or tens of millions.
So the current Tang Zhinian was someone Sang Zhilan envied and even hated.
If he had always been like this, capable of making money and providing a good life, why would she have divorced him?
Now that the divorce was real, her life had gotten worse, but why did Tang Zhinian’s life keep getting better and even seem younger?
She hesitated, moving forward step by step, not knowing quite how she felt.
It was like she wanted to turn around and leave, or maybe even twist off Tang Zhinian’s head.
No matter how she imagined it, in the end, she still sat down and drew her feet back in.
Sang Zhilan lowered her head, unable even to face Tang Zhinian now because every time she saw him, she felt a pain in her spine.
After all, Tang Zhinian was a good-for-nothing who couldn’t even support a child and a woman.
What good was marrying such a man?
A man like that was destined to grub for food in the dirt for the rest of his life.
But who could have known that the country bumpkin would transform into a real estate magnate, while she, who had been envious of the city folk at the time, was now stuck with a dead-end job that neither starved nor satisfied her.
The one she had discarded was now dressed in gold and silver, making money like water, while the one she had set her sights on had achieved nothing in half a lifetime.
Even the two daughters she had borne followed suit; the one she had discarded became a great doctor, nationally renowned, with countless phone calls, and now had children of her own.
But what about the one she had loved?
Now he had nothing, not even a job, and yet had to live at home, freeloading off his parents.
She sat down, daring not to fidget, her eyes not daring to wander about.
“Why don’t you ask how Yuxin, whom you pushed down, is doing?
Is she still alive?” Tang Zhinian’s cold voice seemed to carry tens of thousands of tiny ice cubes, each one striking Sang Zhilan’s face.
The fiery heat of Sang Zhilan’s face suddenly became a sheet of ice, even cold sweat followed, seeping out drop by drop.
“Sang Zhilan, what exactly is your heart made of?” Tang Zhinian clenched his fists tightly, or else he really didn’t know whether he would be able to stop himself from smashing his fist into Sang Zhilan’s face.
“She is your daughter too, you didn’t care for her when she was little, you didn’t want her, I don’t blame you for that, because you didn’t even care for me, how could you possibly care for my daughter?
When she was eight, you took her to be a servant in your house, had her live in a dog’s kennel, let her be beaten, what have I ever done to you?”
“You and your daughter freeloaded off my daughter, you lived in her house for free, and you expected my daughter to serve you and your daughter; I never laid a hand on you, because you are her mother, no matter how shameless you are, no matter how disgraceful, you are still her mother.”
“But tell me, what kind of mother does this?
When she refuses to give you something, you push her.
Are you blind, can you not see that she is pregnant?
Do you really want her to die with her child?
Sang Zhilan, there are two babies in her womb, with that one push, you took three lives; you really have the heart to do that.”
Tang Zhinian’s relentless questioning left Sang Zhilan speechless, unable to rebut or explain herself.
What could she explain?
This was the reality; these were the deeds she had once committed.
Tang Zhinian struggled to suppress the anger heaving in his chest.
His eyes were red with fury, and his fists looked like they could strike out at any moment.
The way Sang Zhilan acted, as if she didn’t fear scalding water like a dead pig, made Tang Zhinian lose even the last bit of patience he had.
Up to now, she still didn’t think she had done anything wrong, not a single word of apology, not a single “I’m sorry.” She had nothing; she was just playing dead, still thinking he would, as before, just scold her for a bit and then let it be.
Hah…
keep dreaming.
Tang Zhinian stood up and walked out with long strides.
Only then did Sang Zhilan finally lift her face, revealing a countenance full of gray defeat and regret.
Yes, she regretted it; she shouldn’t have pushed Tang Yuxin.
No matter what, it wasn’t right to do so.

She had never imagined that such a light push could turn her from an ordinary person into a criminal.
After Tang Zhinian left, she remained there, unable to go out, with no one coming to visit her again; she kept waiting for Wei Tian.
However, Wei Tian never came to see her, not even once.
Neither did Wei Jiani, the daughter she had cherished since childhood, who she had placed at the center of her heart.
She never showed up again either.
Because Tang Zhinian refused to reconcile and the evidence was overwhelming, Sang Zhilan was sentenced to two years of imprisonment.
It was fortunate that Tang Yuxin and the two children were lucky to survive; otherwise, Sang Zhilan would not only be serving two years, but her own life could have been left inside.
After being sentenced, Sang Zhilan was completely stunned.
She had never once thought that one day, she would end up in prison.
She desperately hoped that Wei Tian would come to see her, to comfort her, tell her to wait for him, saying that two years would pass quickly.
But she never got to see Wei Tian.
Only then did she truly realize, in the end, what had she missed in this lifetime?
