Chapter 2012: Resentment

“Of course it’s none of my business. As I said, Le Tian will thank me one day. She’ll thank me for keeping her away from someone like you—trashy good-for-nothing,” Mu Qi said as she walked past Dong Feng.

Dong Feng clenched his fists tightly. Le Tian had long disappeared into the distance, while Mu Qi’s words were like a sharp knife that stabbed straight into Dong Feng’s heart.

He was not a good-for-nothing, he was definitely not a good-for-nothing!

When Le Tian returned home, her parents were waiting for her.

The atmosphere resonated with its perceiver—it was not cheerful at all.

“Dad, Mom, I’m back.” Le Tian entered the door and changed out of her shoes at the door.

Le Tian’s mother went out to the entryway. When she saw that her daughter had returned on her own, she instinctively let out a sigh of relief. “Why didn’t you bring your suitcase back?”

She could not manage to bring her suitcase with her in time because she quarreled with Ding Junqi. How was she supposed to tell her mother that?

“Tomorrow, Ding Junqi will be heading out for an outdoor shoot, so I didn’t bother bringing my suitcase back,” Le Tian mumbled without much confidence.

“Le Tian, tell me the truth. What’s going on between you and Ding Junqi?” Le Tian’s father asked the second Le Tian passed through the entryway.

Le Tian paused for a moment and muttered, “Why does it matter? Yuejia likes me, so—”

“Ding Junqi told me that he likes you. I won’t believe you if you claim that you don’t know that.” Le Tian’s father sounded more and more grave as he spoke.

She had just gotten chewed up by Ding Junqi, then, angered by that idiotic Dong Feng. Now, she was getting questioned by her own father seconds after returning home. Le Tian’s anger was on the brim of exploding.

“It’s his business that he likes me. Do you think I can stop him from liking someone?” Le Tian cried in an aggrieved tone—the kind of grievance that you could get when you were welcomed by accusatory bullets the second you got home.

“Since you know that he likes you, you shouldn’t stay in his house and give him false hope! Why can’t you understand such a simple logic?” Le Tian’s father reprimanded her angrily.

“Le Tian’s dad.” Le Tian’s mother held onto her husband and looked at her daughter worriedly.

“What do I understand? My mom was the one who pushed me to take the job, so how is it my fault now? Why does everyone think that I’m wrong?” Ding Junqi was like this; her own father was also like this. Even Ding Yuejia questioned her why she could not admit that she was his mother.

She herself had no answers to that. In fact, she had no clue as to how her son existed. She had never experienced the process of pregnancy nor the pain of childbirth. Who could relate to how she felt to suddenly have a son out of nowhere? It did not fill her with the joy of being a mother, but dread.

Le Tian’s father’s anger flared after hearing Le Tian’s retort. “Look at it! Do you know what the news says about you? They accuse you of exploiting your job as a tutor to seduce him and that you got an abortion in the middle of the night. How much worse can things be?”

“I didn’t do any of that! You don’t even care about why I went to the hospital yesterday! You only know to yell at me!” Le Tian shouted loudly as tears streaked down the sides of her face.

“Le Tian and her dad! What’s going on with you two?” Le Tian’s mother stood between the both of them. Her heart ached for her daughter, but she did not know what she could say to her husband.

“If I tell you that I gave birth to Ding Yuejia myself, are you going to beat me to death? You—”

Slap!

Le Tian’s words were caught in her throat because of this slap. Le Tian’s mother cried out in shock as she hugged her daughter, trying to see her face.

“Le Tian, you disappoint me too much,” Le Tian’s father growled.

Le Tian’s face was numb from the slap. She could not solicit any form of reaction to that.
