Time Travel: The Queen's Coronation

One day, while I was out, Aunt Wang called me hurriedly to tell me that several people had come to my house looking for me. She dismissed them as hostile, but they remained nearby and asked if I should call the police. From her description, I suspected they were Li Zhanwen's mother and sister. I dropped everything I was doing and rushed home, texting Rong Zixuan.

I drove back, and indeed, there were several black cars near the house. As soon as I parked, I could sense the rage rising from behind. Sure enough, as I got out, Mother Li yelled, "Bitch!" I turned around and saw her slap me hard. Li Zhiwen quickly grabbed her, and Aunt Wang, hearing the commotion, rushed out to block my way.

"Who are you? Why are you going to someone's house and beating them up? Believe it or not, I'll call the police and sue you for trespassing!" Aunt Wang held me and shouted angrily.

"You're going to take revenge? You bitch! What have you done to my son?" Mother Li accused me tearfully. "I went through so much trouble to give birth to him, and I even had a near-death experience. I've cared for him and loved him since he was little. I didn't want him to be great, I just wanted him to be safe. But I didn't expect to meet a little bitch like you, and be completely bewildered by you, to the point of falling ill! My poor son! I can't even get in touch with him now!"

"Why did you come to our house when you couldn't contact your own son? Why did you call the police yourself? Besides, can't you find him with so many people? Why did you have to come to our house and make trouble?" Aunt Wang said to Mother Li with her hands on her hips.

"Where did this old woman come from? I'm talking to this little bitch! You have no right to speak!"

"Who do you care who I am? This is my territory. If you act wild here today, I will definitely take care of you!"

I pulled Aunt Wang away and said, "You're here for Li Zhanwen today, right? Then please come in!"

"Why did you let them into the house? You should have chased them away!" Aunt Wang didn't understand my behavior.

"It's okay, I'll take care of it!"

I invited them all in. When Li's mother came in, she deliberately covered her nose with her hands and looked disgusted. When I asked her to sit down, she even deliberately took out a tissue from her bag to put it under her nose. Li Zhiwen tried to remind her, but she refused.

"Tell me! How much money do you want!" As soon as I sat down, Mother Li looked down at me arrogantly.

"I don't quite understand what you mean?"

"You seduced my son just for his money, didn't you? Name your price and leave my son!"

"How about I offer you 10 billion and you sever your relationship with your son? What do you think?" I crossed my legs and smiled.

Mother Li was furious and stood up and shouted, "This is unreasonable! You actually want my son to sever his mother-son relationship with me! Are you still human?"

"Then why do you want me to break off relations with your son?"

"Because I am his mother! Because he is my son!" Mother Li said righteously.

"It's true that he's your child, but he's an independent individual, not your appendage. You shouldn't control everything about him. He has his own circle, and you shouldn't purge him of people you deem unsuitable in the name of love!"

"I'm doing that for his own good! Look at how broke you are! You must have seduced Xiao Yuan to get this house! Or did you seduce Shen Junhui? How can a vixen like you be worthy of him?"

I was helpless. The old lady still didn't change. "I rented this myself! I snatched the Dalan Bay project from Yao Ning. This project made me a lot of money, so I can afford to live in a house like this!"

"Rob? How can you snatch Yaoning's project? You're probably going to ask Azhan to let his brothers give this project to you!" Mother Li said disdainfully.

Li Zhiwen pulled her aside and urged her to be quiet, "Mom, stop talking. That project was really someone else's doing!"

"What kind of magic did this woman use to make all of you support her like this?" Mother Li pointed at me angrily.

Aunt Wang was about to serve tea. "Aunt Wang, please don't serve it, or she'll splash it on me again," I said happily to Aunt Wang. Aunt Wang understood and took the tea back. I looked at Li Zhiwen and said, "You don't look thirsty, so it's okay if I don't serve you tea! If you get sick from drinking, I won't be able to explain it to you."

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Zhiwen gave me a smile.

Li Zhiwen pulled his mother to sit down, "Mom, don't get excited!"

"I met Li Zhanwen a few days ago. He's doing fine. I asked him to call you, but he refused! It's because your love is too suffocating, Mrs. Li! You've been controlling everything about him since he was born. You took away his favorite guitar and made him learn the more elegant violin. He likes to play football, but you made him learn that boring golf. He likes Chinese food, but you always force him to eat Western food... And you cover all this up with that disgusting phrase 'for your own good'! You've kidnapped his life for more than 20 years in the name of love!"

"He's my son! Everything I do is for his own good. It's not your turn as an outsider to comment on him!"

"I, an outsider, am speaking up for him, but you, the so-called relatives, are driving him into depression!"

"If you hadn't appeared, you would have bewitched him and abandoned him! Could he have depression? Would he have become like this? You slut!"

"Mrs. Li! Why do you always put the blame on others? Why can't you reflect on your own mistakes?"

"Mistake? What mistake did I make? I worked so hard to educate my son, what mistake did I make?"

"There's nothing wrong with educating your son! But you've deprived him of his freedom! He has the freedom to choose. He can choose his own friends, the things he likes, and even his own career. But you've made all the choices for him, not even letting him resist. Isn't that wrong? You can screen the good and bad of his friends, you can guarantee the success or failure of his career, but you can't choose everything for him!"

"This is my own business, it's none of your turn to talk nonsense here, you bitch! And don't think you can get away with it by putting all the blame on me! It's you who made my son like this! It's you who led him astray! He never lost contact before, he would tell me everything, which made me feel at ease, but everything changed after he met you, and it's all because of you!" After saying that, he picked up the apple on the table and threw it at me. I didn't have time to react at such a close distance, and the apple hit me directly.

I covered my forehead in pain. Li Zhiwen and another woman stopped Mother Li. Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhou were watching from the side and immediately rushed over to stand in front of me.

"You old lady! How can you be so arrogant and unreasonable! You hit people again and again!" Aunt Wang's figure was so strong in front of Mother Li that she suppressed Mother Li's momentum.

"You! Who are you talking about, old lady? Like master, like servant!" Mother Li shouted angrily, pointing at Aunt Wang.

"Mrs. Li, please don't be so rude! They are not slaves, they are the nannies I hired, and they are equal to us! They are also members of our family, you can't insult them casually!" I retorted to Mother Li firmly.

At this time, Li Zhanwen rushed in, put down the phone he was answering, walked up to Li's mother and tried to pull her away.

"Let me go! We haven't seen each other for several days, and now you protect this little bitch as soon as we meet!" Mother Li's expression changed from surprise to anger.

"Mom, I beg you, this is someone else's house. It is illegal to break into someone else's house in the United States!" Li Zhanwen said loudly.

"She asked us to come in, we didn't break in! And in just a few days, you've grown so powerful! How dare you talk to your mother like that? Did this little bitch drug you with some kind of magic potion?"

"Mom! Please stop blaming others for your mistakes! I heard your initial conversation! Wei Qing said to you what I always wanted to say but never dared to!"

"Finally you admit it! It was this little bitch who led you astray! Did she have something on you that forced you to submit to her? Tell mom and I'll help you solve it!"

"Mom! Why are you so stubborn? I'm almost driven crazy by your love! I've been suffering from depression since I went to study in the UK. I thought you would let me go after I went abroad, but I didn't expect you to follow me. I still can't get rid of your control! I want to commit suicide every day! But I dare not! I am a complete coward! I dare not resist you, nor do I dare to end my life! My life is full of darkness, and I can't see any hope! Until I met Wei Qing, I fell hopelessly in love with her. She is my hope, my salvation! You can't extinguish my hope! No!" Li Zhanwen yelled loudly at Mother Li, scaring her.

Li Zhiwen pulled Li Zhanwen away, "Zhan, you scared your mother!"

"You! You! You rebellious son! You blame your mother for a woman!"

"Mom! I'm an adult now and I have the ability to distinguish right from wrong! Stop interfering in my affairs!" Li Zhanwen continued to yell loudly.

"I did all this for..."

Li Zhanwen interrupted Mother Li, "It's for my own good! But why am I still in so much pain? It's all just wishful thinking on your part. You're forcing your own ideas on me to satisfy your desire for control. It's suffocating! I'm a person! A living person, a person with thoughts and a soul! You can't suppress my thoughts and control me like a puppet! You can't!"

"Look at you, you dare to yell and talk back now. You were not like this before! Did she teach you that?" Mother Li pointed at me viciously.

"No one forced me to do this. This is a thought I've suppressed for so many years. Whether you accept it or not, please don't interfere in my life anymore! This is my request as a son!"

Mother Li glared at me and walked out the door angrily, and Li Zhiwen quickly followed.

Li Zhanwen calmed down, turned around and apologized to me, "I'm sorry, Wei Qing, I've caused you trouble again!"

"It's okay, but you've taken the first step, congratulations!"

"Honestly, I feel much more relaxed after speaking it out."

"But aren't you afraid your mother will retaliate? Like asking your father to teach you a lesson, or asking your brother to educate you?"

"Actually, my mom is very strong in our family, so she's not very popular, but she's our mom, and as her children, it's hard for us to resist."

"Where's your father? He's not a henpecked husband, is he?"

"It's about the same!" Li Zhanwen said helplessly.

"How did you seven brothers and sisters get here?"

"My mom was just strict with my older brothers and sisters. As long as they had good grades and didn't do anything bad, she would usually turn a blind eye. But maybe she had a difficult birth when I was born. I don't know if she felt sorry for me or wanted to get back at me, but she paid extra attention to me, asking about every little thing, and ultimately controlling my life!"

“Are you financially independent now?”

"Uh, sorry, no. I'm still a prodigal son asking my family for money," Li Zhanwen said awkwardly.

"Then you might need to prepare yourself. Your mother will probably cut off your financial resources and force you to surrender. For example, she might freeze your bank account and take away your sports car."

"It's okay, I can borrow some from my friends."

"What if your friend has also been 'invited' by her? Don't you have any private money?"

"She takes care of all my affairs, so I don't have the opportunity to save any private money. If I have nowhere else to go, will you take me in?"

"Of course I can help you in an emergency."

“Then I’m not afraid anymore.”

"But I'm scared! Your mother has come to me time and time again, and she won't listen to reason. She always gets violent. Last time she threw water at me, this time she slapped me and hit my head. I'm really afraid she'll stab me with a knife next time!"

"Did she hit you?"

"nonsense!"

"sorry!"

"But your mother is a wealthy lady after all. Why does she like to curse and hit people like a shrew?"

"I don't know either, but next time she comes to see you, remember to call me immediately! I will come as soon as possible!"

At this time, Rong Zixuan also came back, "Wife, I'm back! What's going on? Where's that old witch?"

"gone!"

"You're here too! Tell your mother to stop bothering us, or we'll call the police!" Rong Zixuan shouted at Li Zhanwen rudely, then glanced at me and came over immediately. "Wife, what's wrong with your forehead? Did that old witch hit you?"

"She moved too fast, I didn't react in time, and she succeeded!"

Rong Zixuan was applying ointment to my forehead. Li Zhanwen felt a little uncomfortable and apologized to me before leaving our house. This incident today was really annoying! I don't know what I owed Mrs. Li, but I let her get away with it time and time again. However, her making such a fuss has given me the confidence to take action against the Yaoning Group! I won't offend anyone unless they offend me, but if they do, I will definitely fight back!
