Su Wan who was listening to Lin Che’s speech gagged if not for Lin Yan who hurriedly patted her back she might have vomited everything that she ate at the dinner. Really? Were all scumbags and bastards the same? When she was cheated on by her husband and half-sister, in a huff she stopped sending money to her father who ruined his company after gambling the stocks of the company here and there—— back then her father came to her door with a cheeky grin and what did he say? Ah yes, he blamed her for being an eggless chicken and said that it was her who wronged her ex-husband first by not giving him a child. Heh, how will that old man know that her body was completely fine, it was that idiot who ran amok spreading his love seeds here and there before marrying her that lowered the fertility rate of his sperm.
It was her husband who did her wrong but she was the one who was blamed, now Zhang Xiaohui was the one who was getting blamed. Though Su Wan wanted to help Zhang Xiaohui, she didn’t say anything—— this wasn’t her fight and she couldn’t do much in it, back then she somehow summoned the courage to slam the door on her father and learned the hard lesson that no matter who it was—- whether family or friends, biological or not, a person who let you down once no longer deserved to be given a chance to step in your life again.
If they cheated you once it was their fault but if you gave them a chance to cheat you again then it was yours.
The lesson was something that she learned the hard way and even spent many nights crying after learning it. However, after that, she was able to pick herself back again and even took such flawless revenge on her ex-husband and his mistress. Zhang Xiaohui has to learn the same lesson, even if it makes her sad for days.
Su Wan glanced at Zhang Xiaohui’s expression and shook her head. The wounds received from strangers doesn’t hurt as bad as the one received from loved ones did.
” So, you are saying it was my fault?” said Zhang Xiaohui, she didn’t scream or cry. She simply stared at her children who looked at her with a righteous air. Ah, where did she go wrong? But then she remembered how she raised the two of them and mockingly smiled, no she should ask what she did right while raising them. It was her fault that she lost herself and became as greedy and lazy as Lin Ze and his mother, it was her fault, if she was better a role model then maybe her children would have grown up properly. She sighed and shook her head. ” I heard what you have to say, but I am not coming back, you can leave.”
Seeing that their mother was going back inside the house, Lin Yunxi and Lin Che panicked. They looked at each other and hurriedly shouted, “Mother, even if we did something right. We are still your kids are you going to abandon us like that?”
The two of them didn’t want to use this tactic either. It sounded like emotional blackmail but now that the soft approach wasn’t working they could only do it the hard way.
Su Wan raised her lips in a mocking smile and leaned back on her chair as she closed her eyes. She knew this was going to happen back then when she cut off the financial support that she used to send her father, the old man said the same thing to her, he tried to pressurise her into giving into him by calling her unfilial and suing her in the court. At that time she was forced into her corner and if not for her quick wits, she would have been drowned in the spit of the netizens.
She lightly sighed and commented, ” Ah Yan, people can be really shameless.”
Her acidic words of course reached Lin Che and Lin Yunxi but they still stubbornly stood still. For the sake of their future, they have to persist!
Lin Yunxi saw that her mother has paused at Lin Che’s words and hurriedly followed up. ” Mother, are you sure you want to do this? If you do something like this wouldn’t people say that you were selfish and abandoned your children, no matter what we do and how we wrong you—— in the end we are still your kids how can you abandon us like this? Shouldn’t you be taking care of us until the end? I and Brother Che have not married yet and we are still young, you can’t leave us like this!”
When Lin Yunxi said those words she sounded extremely righteous. That’s right, they were her children so what if they wronged her? How can their mother leave them in a plight and live a good life alone? They were her burdens and she needed to take care of them until the very end! That was what parents were supposed to do.
She wanted to say something more but then something moved in her peripheral vision and before she knew it, she was doused with dirty water.
