Chapter 261: Chapter 261: Am I Really Your Biological Child?
Ning Zitong paused as she was getting out of the car. She looked up and, sure enough, saw a short-haired, slightly overweight middle-aged woman pulling Yan Xinxin’s hand as they walked toward the back of the school wall.
Noticing the gloomy emotion on Yan Xinxin’s face, Ning Zitong glared unhappily at Ye Lirong’s retreating figure.
"I’ll go take a look."
"Madam, I’ll go with you."
Yan Xinxin never expected Ye Lirong to come to the school to look for her again, but this time, she came for money.
Ever since she started college, it had been the same every month.
Ye Lirong demanded her to give a household allowance on the twentieth of every month.
Understanding Ye Lirong’s purpose, Yan Xinxin didn’t bother to sugarcoat her words.
Yet the lump in her throat made it impossible for her to call out "Mom."
"I don’t have that much cash on me right now. I’ll go to the bank and transfer it to your account later."
"Xinxin, I’m not here just to ask you for money. Why are you talking as if there’s such a gap between us as mother and daughter?"
Ye Lirong looked at Yan Xinxin with apparent displeasure.
"I worked so hard to raise you, and now you’ve latched onto a young master from a wealthy family and tossed me, your mother, aside?"
She accused.
Yan Xinxin raised her hand to tuck her hair behind her ear and smiled bitterly.
"Mom, can I ask you a question?"
"What do you want to ask?"
"Am I really your biological daughter?"
Perhaps the suddenness of Yan Xinxin’s question caught Ye Lirong off guard, and her expression froze momentarily.
"Both Yan Zhirou and I are your daughters, so why is there such a big difference in how you treat us?"
Yan Xinxin pursued the matter, her gaze flickering slightly.
"If it weren’t for Dad loving me so much growing up, I would seriously think I was a child you picked up somewhere."
"You wretched girl, what nonsense are you spouting!"
Ye Lirong suddenly shouted angrily.
"Rou is your sister, and letting her have her way is only right! You’re fussing about that? Rou worked so hard to get into a big company like Di Jue, and just because you were jealous and petty, you almost got her sued. Yan Xinxin, how did you turn into such a terrible person!"
Listening to Ye Lirong’s rebuke, Yan Xinxin could only laugh.
"Yes, I’m terrible. Anyway, in your eyes, I’ve never been anything good."
"You—"
"Since that’s the case, why don’t you ask your sensible Rou to give you money then?"
After saying this, Yan Xinxin turned away. Facing a mother like this, her heart had already gone cold.
"You wretched girl! Now that you’ve latched onto such a big money tree, you won’t even give your mother a measly thousand yuan every month?"
Ye Lirong cursed as she stepped forward to block Yan Xinxin’s path, completely ignoring whether there were people around watching.
"Young Master Mo wanting you now is just your luck. Do you really think you can become the Mo family’s young madam? Yan Xinxin, let me teach you a lesson about life. If you don’t squeeze what you can out of that Mo CEO now, you won’t have another chance later!"
Ye Lirong’s words undoubtedly felt like mockery to Yan Xinxin, making her heart grow even colder.
Is that so? These people, one after another, or more precisely every single one of them, thought so little of her, Yan Xinxin. They all firmly believed that she would be played and discarded by Mo Chuxi!
Fine!
Yan Xinxin swore to herself that, no matter what, she would stick to Mo Chuxi in this lifetime! Even if it killed her, she wouldn’t let go!
"Xinxin, your mom won’t stoop to your level of pettiness. No matter what, you’re my flesh and blood. If you still acknowledge me as your mom and want to come back to this house, then show some proper attitude. Your mom may not have a fancy education, but even I know one saying."
Ye Lirong looked at Yan Xinxin with a sly, meaningful glint.
"’Greed doesn’t fatten the lone eater!’ Young Master Mo is such a big money tree—you know what you ought to do, right?"
"Ha! That’s hilarious!"
As Ye Lirong continued her string of thinly veiled hints to get money from Yan Xinxin, a woman’s mocking laughter suddenly broke through.
"How is it possible that someone like you exists as a mother? Absolutely shameless!"
