Chapter 439: Complaint
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Guo Jie scolded angrily, “Chen Ling is really insensible! I let her enter the entertainment industry to help you. If you didn’t keep giving money to the family, she would have dropped out of school long ago.”
Yu Miao sighed. “Mom, don’t be angry. She probably didn’t do it on purpose.”
She only said this to add fuel to the fire.
When Guo Jie heard this, she became even angrier. “I think she did it on purpose! Yu Miao, don’t worry. I’ll call her later and scold her fiercely. I’ll let her stay by your side and help you.”
The corners of Yu Miao’s lips curled up. She said proudly, “Thank you, Mom. I love Mom the most.”
The two of them chatted for a while more before hanging up.
On the other side.
Chen Ling had just finished work and was lying on the sofa to rest.
For the past few days, she had been busy filming advertis.e.m.e.nts. Ever since her performance on variety shows was not bad, many merchants wanted her to be their spokesperson.
Not long after she lay down, she received a familiar call.
Chen Ling hesitated for a moment before answering the call. “h.e.l.lo, Mom, why are you looking for me?”
She guessed that Yu Miao might have complained. Otherwise, her mother would not have called her.
Guo Jie’s voice was extremely stern as she questioned, “After you entered the entertainment industry, your wings have hardened and you don’t listen to your family anymore? Do you believe that I’ll get your uncle to ban you?”
Chen Ling bit her lip and asked, “Why did I not listen to my family?”
Guo Jie was still angry. “Then why didn’t you help your sister more when you partic.i.p.ated in the show? You even got close to the person who bullied her. Do you still have a conscience?”
Hearing these words, Chen Ling’s eyes were filled with disappointment.
Her mother’s att.i.tude towards her and her sister was becoming more and more different.
In her mother’s eyes, she was just a stepping stone for Yu Miao. She could not have her own thoughts and life.
Fortunately, Chen Ling was smart enough to know how to deal with this biased mother.
She said timidly, “Mother, I did this because of that uncle. He asked me to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry first and try my best to build a good relationship with Yu Su to gain her trust. I didn’t help Sister because I was afraid of exposing myself and making Yu Su suspicious.”
After hearing this, Guo Jie’s att.i.tude finally improved. “I see. Then listen to your uncle and work hard for him. Your uncle’s decision won’t be wrong.”
Chen Ling’s eyes were filled with mockery. “Alright.”
After so many years, she had long known that once she mentioned that uncle to her mother, her mother would seem to have lost her intelligence and could compromise infinitely.
Guo Jie thought for a moment and reminded her, “Chen Ling, if you’re free these few days, go and see your sister. She’s alone in Chinatown!”
“Alright, I understand.” Chen Ling’s gaze was cold as she casually replied.
Then, Guo Jie continued to mutter, “If it weren’t for your sister sending money home for so many years, you wouldn’t have been able to attend such a good university. You have to know how to be grateful, understand? I’m doing this for your own good.”
Chen Ling sneered, her eyes filled with fatigue.
All these years, Yu Miao had indeed sent back a lot of money, but Guo Jie had taken it and bought many branded bags and clothes.
Her father had earned the money for her school fees bit by bit. It had nothing to do with Yu Miao.
Now, it was as if she had accepted Yu Miao’s financial support.
Chen Ling looked out of the window and said calmly, “Alright, I’ll always remember it! I’ll take a plane to Chinatown tomorrow to see my sister and bring her some tonics.”
“Sigh! This is Mommy’s good daughter!” Hearing a satisfactory answer, Guo Jie was no longer interested in continuing the conversation. She reminded Chen Ling a few more times before hanging up.
Chen Ling lay on the sofa and looked out of the window.
She was still a little disappointed.
Not long after, her phone rang again. Chen Ling picked up her phone and saw that it was her father, Chen Xiang.
A smile instantly appeared on her face. “Daddy, are you doing well?”
On the other end of the phone, Chen Xiang’s honest voice sounded with love. “Daddy is doing very well. Chen Ling, don’t worry. Are you used to being in the entertainment industry? No one bullied you, right?”
Chen Ling smiled sweetly. “I’m doing very well! The luckiest thing is that I met a very good sister the moment I entered the entertainment industry. I’m working at her studio now. No one will dare to bully me. Don’t worry..”
