Chapter 214 - 214: What Sin Have I Committed?
Yan Xin"s mother"s face turned sullen.
She let go of Yan Xin"s hand and sat down on the ground, wailing and punching the ground.
"Oh my G.o.d, what sin have I committed? I only have one daughter and was hoping that she could find a good job and marry a good husband so that she can provide for us when we retire, but her life has been ruined just like that..."
Yan Jinyi"s eyelids twitched. "This shrew is totally on par for Chen Yulian!"
"No, she might be even more shrewish than Chen Yulian."
In a flash, the attention of the pa.s.sers-by were all attracted by the commotion here, and they all took out their cell phones and started taking pictures.
Yan Xin"s mother was still crying, like the evil and shrewish mother-in-law shown in television dramas.
"My daughter is innocent and pure. We have taught her to love and cherish herself since she was a child, but she ended up falling for Huo Zihang, this heartless jerk. Now she"s pregnant with his child too!"
Yan Xin also did not expect her mother to suddenly bring that up and pull that trick. A look of annoyance flashed in her eyes, but she still looked pitiful.
She put one hand on her waist and was about to pull her mother who was seated on the ground. "Mom, cut it out, Mr. Huo has a reason not to want this child."
"Reason, what reason? Isn"t it just because they look down on our family? Apart from being poor, we did not do anything unconscionable, but we still deserve to be despised, right?"
Yan Xin pulled her again and said, "Mom, I did everything willingly."
"How dare you have the cheek to say that? Had I known earlier that you were pregnant, I would have dragged you to the hospital to get an abortion when I first found out about it. Now, your baby"s heart is already beating. How can I bear to... Ah, we can barely keep ourselves alive, how can we raise this child!?!"
As she went on, Yan Xin"s mother got even angrier and began strangling Yan Xin. "It"s your fault, you wretched brat. Of all people, you had to fall in love with Huo Zihang. Look, your father is so angry that he has collapsed..."
Yan Xin immediately shrieked in pain and exclaimed, "Mom, stop it, it"s all my fault, please stop, it hurts!"
Seeing the pregnant Yan Xin being abused by her own mother, the surrounding people couldn"t stand it longer.
An old lady with white hair walked over and said, "Stop fighting, she"s your daughter and she"s pregnant. If something happens to her, what are you going to do?"
Yan Xin"s mother sat on the ground again. "Oh G.o.d, what else can I do? Look at how she is now. Her baby"s father won"t acknowledge the baby, and he used to insist on winning her heart, but now that she"s pregnant, he"s so quick to shirk the responsibility. We"re barely surviving on a few thousand yuan each month. Once the baby is born, we won"t even have enough money to buy milk..."
Yan Xin"s mother made herself sound extremely pitiful and she was as dramatic as a typical character in television dramas.
Yan Jinyi rubbed her temples, finding it difficult to contain her anger any longer.
"What do I do? I really feel like beating her up. If I beat her to death, will I have to line up for another 100,000 years to reincarnate?"
The staff of the company were all gathered at the entrance to watch the show.
"Mr. Huo is so unlucky. He used to be able to brush such women off easily in the past, but this time things have blown out of proportion!"
With the appearance of Yan Xin"s mother, more and more onlookers spoke up for Yan Xin"s mother and her daughter by pointing fingers at Huo Zihang.
Some of the older ones were fearless and were even about to hit Huo Zihang.
