Shen Buqing is dead!
There was a car accident half an hour before the date; the car was destroyed, and he died on the spot.
By the time I arrived, he was already unrecognizable.
Mistress Chen Minglu soon learned about this and rushed to my In-laws to cause a scene, demanding his entire inheritance.
She is carrying Shen Buqing's posthumous child, the only grandson of The Shen Family.
Shen Buqing even gave him a beautiful name, "Treasure!"
Haha! I coldly watched Chen Minglu flaunting her big belly, arrogantly drinking tea with my In-laws, calling him a good father and a good mother.
I felt nauseous and said, "I am legally married to Shen Buqing, and according to the law, my child and I have the right to inherit his estate. As for you, you have no right to inherit any property from The Shen Family!"
After hearing my words, she was clearly unhappy. She stroked her belly and smiled coldly.
"I am carrying The Shen Family's grandson; a mother is valued by her child~! Qing has long wanted to get rid of you; you're worthless for not being able to give birth to a son."
My In-laws raised their heads slightly and sighed, "Yin, this is the little grandson of The Shen Family, we cherish him! If you dare to have any thoughts, don't blame us for being rude."
With my In-laws's attitude laid out, Chen Minglu became even more arrogant seeing their support.
"This matter is settled then. Before my son is born, it must be arranged. My patience is very limited; if I get angry, the little grandson of The Shen Family won't have it easy either."
In-laws smiled and urged her not to get angry, saying that no one should bully their future grandson. I raised my head with a faint smile and said, "There’s no money! There’s only one way out, turn right when you leave!"

Chen Minglu unexpectedly laughed instead of getting angry. "Sure! No wonder Qing looks down on you!" Her tone was cold, strangely as if she were the legitimate wife.
I wasn't angry either; I was the legally protected original partner. Even if In-laws were confused, I couldn't let myself be at a disadvantage.
However, Chen Minglu was not an ordinary woman; she was particularly difficult to deal with.
With her big belly, she scanned the room with her pair of sly big eyes, landing on the 19th-century Roman painting in the living room.
Then she sarcastically asked me, "Is this painting authentic?"
I had no mood to engage with her because In-laws were planning to have me sign a property withdrawal agreement. I narrowed my eyes at her.
In-laws stood up and walked over to her eagerly. "Our family doesn't buy fakes! This painting is worth two million!"
Chen Minglu was extremely pleased. She understood what In-laws had just said and followed up with, "Qing has long stopped loving you! You’re just here hoping to get some inheritance, but unfortunately, you can’t give birth to a son. The Shen Family won’t give you any money!" She sneered and then lingered in front of me.
"This villa looks pretty good! Let it be a gift for my son!" She wasn’t asking for my opinion; she was informing me.
Chen Minglu's gaze turned to my In-laws, and their expressions darkened as if they had made a decision. They nodded and said, "Yin, Xiao Chen is having a hard time with the pregnancy. This place is closest to the hospital; why don’t you move there?"
I smiled calmly and said, "Wherever Yaya and I live is fine! I lived here with Shen Buqing for twelve years! Who would have thought that before his bones were even cold, you all would come knocking to bully the legitimate wife?"
The expressions of my In-laws instantly soured. I nodded at them and said, "Mom and Dad, you want me to sign a property withdrawal agreement, but everything here was built by me and Shen Buqing.
"Logically, I could call you Mom and Dad, my daughter's grandparents, but to be blunt, we can go our separate ways from now on."
Chen Minglu's expression stiffened as she walked up to Yaya, my daughter, and grabbed her by the collar, saying, "Little girl, is your mom really that impressive? Haha, looking all wrinkled and crumpled, how uncomfortable that must make Qing feel."
"This little country girl is just suited for living in the countryside. Lu Xiaoyin, don't you realize your own shortcomings? Why are you still trying to compete?" With that, she pinched my daughter's cheek hard.
The little one’s face began to swell as she cried out for me to hold her.
Chen Minglu triumphantly tossed Yaya back to me, leaving her with a red and swollen mark.
Chen Minglu was too rough.
No matter how good-tempered I was, I couldn't tolerate her bullying my daughter like this.
My husband had just died, and this Mistress revealed her true colors.
She truly had calculated everything so well; it was impressive.
I wouldn't let myself be bullied so easily.
I held my daughter tightly and gently comforted her emotions. The family was fighting fiercely over her father's inheritance, but the child was innocent.
"Yaya, this witch, I'll defeat her for you!" I whispered to my daughter, who clung to my shoulder with tears in her eyes. "Mommy supports you!"
She sobbed softly, not wanting me to feel troubled.
To prevent my daughter from suffering more harm, I came up with an idea. I picked up Yaya and said, "Xiao Chen, you’re tough enough that a pinch doesn’t hurt you. But Yaya is only four years old! You dare to mess with the granddaughter of the Shen Family!"
My in-laws frowned as they looked at Yaya's swollen face, while the person involved, Chen Minglu, appeared indifferent. She glanced at me, whose face was pale, and smiled even more joyfully.
"I'll give you half a month. When the time is up, I'll come to collect the house. If you don't leave, I will make your life unbearable!"
I have come to understand Chen Minglu's temperament very well during this time. They urged me to sign the property withdrawal agreement. Chen Minglu cast a sly glance at me, and my hand trembled slightly as I held the pen. I said, "I haven't read this agreement; I need to take a good look at it. Give me some time."
I knew that being tough wouldn't work. I agreed to let Chen Minglu collect the house when she took away the signed agreement.
My in-laws said, "You know very well that your connection with the Shen Family has come to an end; we can't give you anything!"
I was more astute than Chen Minglu, but their intentions were all the same.
They wanted me to walk away from this inheritance division with nothing.
They wanted me to be thrown out with my daughter Yaya.
I coldly glanced at them. I was not a weak person; after having Yaya, I became stronger as a mother. I would not let Chen Minglu inflict pain on me and Yaya without a fight; I would reclaim what was rightfully ours.
After sending my in-laws and Chen Minglu away, I made a phone call.
This was the most famous property division lawyer in the capital. I needed to obtain the property certificate for this villa first.
When I bought it back then, I paid half of the money, but only Shen Buqing's name was written on the deed.
Now Chen Minglu wanted to fight for the family fortune.
I know that the struggle between her and me has just begun.
My daughter, still feeling uneasy, hugged me and asked, "Who is that lady? Why is she bullying Yaya? Why is she being mean to Mommy with Grandpa and Grandma?"
Although Yaya is young, she sees everything. I don't want to hide the truth from her, but I also don't want to hurt her too deeply. I told my daughter, "That lady is not a good person; she's here to scam money! Grandpa and Grandma don’t know the truth and have been deceived by her."
Yaya hugged me, seemingly pondering something important. She then asked, "Where did Daddy go? I haven't seen him for several days. That lady is really bad; let Daddy come and beat her up."
My heart ached at her innocent words. In Yaya's eyes, her father Shen Buqing is a strong man who will protect her.
I held my four-year-old daughter tightly, not wanting this cruel inheritance dispute to leave any shadows in her heart.
"Yaya, Mommy wants to discuss something with you. Is that okay?"
My daughter nodded obediently, "Mommy, go ahead. Yaya listens to you the most!"
"Mommy will send you to Grandma's house for a while. Once Mommy finishes her business, I'll come to pick you up!"
Though my daughter was reluctant, she accepted my suggestion.
I took Yaya to a safe place.
Meanwhile, I communicated with Lawyer Wang in the capital to seek more legal assistance.
Two weeks later, Chen Minglu appeared at the villa again. This time, she was there to help me move.
"Why haven't you moved out yet? Hurry up and get lost! Move my son's things!" Chen Minglu flailed her arms in front of me as if she were the mistress of this house.
She stood in front of me, pointing at my nose and scolding me fiercely.
"Do you have no shame? Taking over someone else's home and refusing to leave! Get out now!"
Her voice was loud, and everyone in the villa heard the commotion.
I closed my eyes, my face pale, watching helplessly as the two women beside her started moving things around the villa.
But this is my home!
I made a phone call, and the butler along with several servants arrived within five minutes.
The group exchanged glances as they watched the arrogant Chen Minglu shouting in the villa's hall.
Chen Minglu placed her hands on her hips and declared, "This villa is mine from now on, and you all have to listen to me. Throw out her trash; it's too annoying to look at!"
She laughed arrogantly, her expression cold and domineering, giving off a sense of a petty person reveling in their triumph.
The butler and servants looked at me with questioning eyes; they wouldn't believe Chen Minglu.
I had spent twelve years here with Shen Buqing.
These elderly staff members were all hired by me one by one.
They would stand by me through thick and thin.
I didn't want to lose my home.
I coldly said to Chen Minglu, "Get this woman out of here!"
The butler and the servants were taken aback but quickly sprang into action, and within a few minutes, they had restrained the two women that Chen Minglu had brought with her.
The situation changed too rapidly.
Chen Minglu knew she was outnumbered, but she had more people than just these. She glared at me in anger, "Lu Xiaoyin, you worthless piece of trash! How dare you go against me! I'll have my parents tear you apart!"
The elderly members of The Shen Family present all frowned; Chen Minglu's hostility was overwhelming. When did The Shen Family produce such a person?
Butler Uncle Chen called the police.
He looked at Chen Minglu with a serious expression, "Madam has been here for twelve years. Even if the master is gone, it’s not your place to bully her."
Upon hearing this, Chen Minglu laughed instead of getting angry, "What is Lu Xiaoyin? Everything she has is given by Qing. Now all of Qing's assets belong to me! I am the mistress of The Shen Family."
As soon as Chen Minglu finished speaking, about six or seven strong men barged into the villa.
The scene was suddenly out of my control. Chen Minglu pointed at me and said, "Throw this woman out!"
The six or seven men rushed over, intending to restrain me.
Uncle Chen was startled but quickly reacted; the servants shielded me from behind.
"Who are you?"
I struggled to move my lips but swallowed my words. Uncle Chen turned back to look at me earnestly. I held back and finally said, "She’s here to scam money!"
Uncle Chen frowned, and the servants all understood, thinking that Shen Buqing had gotten into trouble outside.
"Am I here to scam money?" Chen Minglu sneered, "Why don't you tell them who I am to Qing? The child in my belly is the grandson of The Shen Family!"
My face darkened instantly, and the blood in my body felt like it was flowing backward. Chen Minglu only wanted to embarrass me.
Chen Minglu confidently said, "Qing only loves me; he has never loved you, Lu Xiaoyin. What meaning is there in staying in his villa?"
Uncle Chen couldn't listen any longer and pointed at Chen Minglu, scolding, "Where did this bad girl come from? Destroying Mr. Shen's family? The couple has been loving each other for over a decade; we don't believe what you say!"
The servants nodded in agreement.
Chen Minglu narrowed her eyes at me and said, "Mom and Dad want you to sign the property withdrawal agreement! Sign it and give it to me!"
I looked at her awkwardly; her smile was filled with mockery. But after more than a decade of investment, I couldn't just hand everything over to someone like Chen Minglu.
