Ling Qi snorted. “So what if you’re marrying someone? What’s the point if you’re not marrying Ruan Zeyan?” At the mention of that man, Ling Qi’s eyes sharpened. “All thanks to Ling Tianya, that b.i.t.c.h. She’s the one that landed you on this state today. Everything’s her fault!”
When she was first rejected by Ruan Zeyan, she had heard Ling Qi say this often. Back then, she had agreed, so she had wanted nothing more but for Ling Tianya to fall.
But right here, right now, all these words were just grating on her ears.
“Mom, do you really think the person that landed me in this state today is Ling Tianya?”
“Who else!”
“It’s you.”
Ling Qi paused, her eyes wide and round as she looked at Guan Meiyi as she tried to determine whether she was hallucinating. “What did you just say?”
“I said, the person that landed me in this state today is you!” Guan Meiyi repeated.
“Oh my G.o.d! Is there still justice in the world?” Ling Qi’s emotions reached another peak. “I have raised you since young, given you the best of everything. I was the one that made you into the Guan Meiyi that everyone knew and love! You would have been nothing without me!”
Guan Meiyi’s face was ashen, her eyes filled with tears. “Mom, ever since you had given birth to me and realized that I was a girl, you have been lamenting why I wasn’t a boy. I’ve been hearing you say things like that since I was young.
You had raised me up just to satisfy your vanity. You had your mind set on making me Ruan Zeyan’s wife, so you molded me into the second w.a.n.g Yazhi just to gain the likes of Ruan Zeyan’s mother. You had never asked me what I liked, what my hobbies were. I could only like what w.a.n.g Yazhi liked, have hobbies that w.a.n.g Yazhi did too.
Then, I thought you were doing it for my good. After all, to marry Ruan Zeyan was the dream of many girls worldwide. You had left no other choice for me in my life other than to marry Ruan Zeyan. So, when Ruan Zeyan chose Ling Tianya, I was lost, I didn’t know what to do — and I redirected all my hate onto Ling Tianya.
I thought Ling Tianya was the one that had landed me into this state, and I ignored the fact that Ling Tianya was Ruan Zeyan’s first love.
But Mom, who was the one that forced Ling Tianya to marry Li Chenfeng to cover up her own adultery? It’s you! Who’s the one that threatened Ling Tianya with Ling Tianxin’s custody? It’s you too! I could never dream that my mom would actually commit adultery or even harm someone’s life.
Back then, I a.s.sumed that you let Ling Tianya marry Li Chenfeng for her own good, but Ling Tianya was blind to your true intentions, even creating so much trouble. So, I had never respected her too much. But I never would have expected that all this was the product of my mom trying to hide the evidence of her adultery…”
But even so, Ling Qi is Guan Meiyi’s mother. In order to regain her freedom, Guan Meiyi was willing to marry He Zhenxuan.
Guan Meiyi could understand what Ling Tianya felt six years ago. It really felt horrendous to be forced to marry someone.
But Guan Meiyi didn’t have Ling Tianya’s guts. All the setbacks that she had had rounded out all of her corners.
Hearing her daughter accuse her, Ling Qi cried, “I know now the Guan family doesn’t have a single good person! Even my own daughter has turned against me and followed after the Guan family, just as inhumane, just as heartless!”
