Bai Xue continued talking to herself, noticing her daughter still silent, only staring intently at her. Only then did she realize sothing was wrong. Clearly, her daughter wasn’t worried about her, but about sothing else. Under such a gaze, her smile slowly disappeared.
"Qianqian, say sothing, won’t you? You’re making mom really anxious. What’s going on?" Bai Xue’s words carried an admission of guilt and an appeal.
"Mom, how could you do this? Don’t you know Ye Ling is about to get married? You just pushed her out like this, how will we face the Li Family in the future?" Ye Qian really couldn’t understand how her mother could beco so foolish.
Bai Xue let out a sigh of relief and smiled, "Are you silly, child? I divorced your father, but Ye Ling still has to call mom, right? Besides, and your father haven’t separated from you; you’re still our children. Don’t worry, we will still have a normal relationship with the Li Family, and no one can be closer to them than us."
Ye Qian laughed, but it was a mock laugh, "Mom, Ye Ling never respected you before, now that you’ve divorced dad, do you think Ye Ling will give you any face? Even if you go to the Li Family, she might embarrass you by bringing up the matter and breaking ties with you, she won’t help you, believe it?"
Bai Xue was stunned into silence.
It’s not just now, even before Ye Ling was like this, which is why Bai Xue increasingly looked down on her.
Ye Qian couldn’t understand how her mother could just push people away like this. What was she thinking? "Mom, why did you agree to it? At least when you’re with dad, soone will take care of you when you’re sick. Now you’re alone, what will you do if sothing happens? I’m at the company all day, how can I help you?"
"Ye Ling is getting married the day after tomorrow. How are you going to explain if soone asks?" Ye Qian felt worse the more she thought about it.
Not to ntion anything else, but just today, sohow the word got out; everyone knows the boss’s son is marrying her sister. They all ca around her, so even sucking up. Aunt Wu from the Liu Family even made a special trip to the company to see her, deliberately ntioning her and Brother Zhiyuan’s marriage. Now it’s like this, her mother pushed Ye Ling out, she hates having to rely on Ye Ling to be fawned over by people, but if there’s such an opportunity and you don’t use it, that’s foolish.
"Qianqian, don’t worry, you can relax. Tomorrow, mom will talk to your dad about remarrying." Seeing her daughter cry, Bai Xue was anxious too.
"Mom, are you three years old? Dad proposed so many conditions for the divorce, do you think it’s possible to remarry? What did I tell you when you first ca to ? I told you to humbly apologize to dad. But in just one night, you go and get divorced, does all those years of feelings with dad only equal two hundred bucks?" Ye Qian felt suffocated, completely giving up on her mother, "There’s still work at the company, I’ll head back now."
About to step down from the kang, she added, "If you have sothing, don’t co to the company for , just send soone with a ssage."
Bai Xue panicked, got off the kang and grabbed her daughter, crying, "Qianqian, I was wrong, you think mom would leave your dad for two hundred bucks? Your dad was determined to divorce . I thought if he dislikes so much, it would be better to leave his sight, so he might rember so good about , right? You think I don’t understand what you said? But I’m left with no choice; I’m this old, how can divorce not be humiliating?"
Ye Qian tried pulling her hand back a few tis but couldn’t, just stood where she was, wiping tears with her head down, while Bai Xue’s cries grew louder, "Speaking of Ye Ling, even with your dad around she wouldn’t care about . I thought it better to just leave him. If sothing does happen to and she doesn’t care, that would truly be unfilial. This way she might have so scruples, might give so face, doesn’t that make sense to you?"
Ye Qian knew her mother was just making excuses, but thinking deeper, it did make so sense. At ho, Ye Ling was fearless, but now that their parents were divorced, if she still didn’t care about her mother, she’d be unfilial. A soldier with such a reputation, the superiors wouldn’t ignore. Ye Qian’s dejected feelings finally eased a bit.
Bai Xue seeing her daughter not crying so heartbreakingly anymore, cautiously pulled her daughter back onto the kang, "Don’t worry. This ti with Ye Ling marrying into the Li Family, our family is also in-law with them, Aunt Wu would be happy to have you as a daughter-in-law. You aren’t young anymore, when the ti cos, mom will drop a hint."
"Mom, no need, let’s wait for the Liu Family first." Now that the parents are divorced, who knows if Aunt Wu will still take a liking to her. Ye Qian sniffed, "During the day, Aunt Wu visited the unit to see , congratulated on Ye Ling and Shen Bin’s marriage; she doesn’t know about you and dad getting divorced. Let’s see her reaction on Ye Ling’s wedding day after she learns of it."
Ye Qian is no fool, being too proactive might lead to not ntioning anything else, but if she truly marries into the Liu Family, she might have to humble herself. It’s better to wait and see, if things don’t work out, at worst, pick another family. This marriage isn’t just about marrying soone you like, living a good life long-term is what matters.
Ye Qian’s plans, naturally she wouldn’t tell her mom, knowing her mother’s behavior, even if told it would be pointless.
"Fine, we’ll listen to you, do as you say in the future." Bai Xue dared not anger her daughter anymore.
No husband, if estranged from her youngest daughter, she’d truly be all alone.
After such a fuss, Bai Xue wasn’t in the mood for drinking, simply ate a al with her daughter, Ye Qian said she wanted to visit her father, "With such a big matter, I can’t pretend I know nothing, it’s better to go and take a look."
Bai Xue understood her daughter was reasonable, sent her daughter out the door, and instructed, "Co back early."
Watched her walk away before returning ho.
Following her mother’s instruction, Ye Qian found her father at the first house in the third row behind the library. Seeing Ye Ling inside, Ye Qian nodded with reddened eyes, then looked towards her father, "Dad, now that you and mom are divorced, have I lost my ho?"
"You child." Ye He Ping saw his daughter cry and softened, "Co, sit down and let’s talk, it took you a while to find the place?"
Ye Qian obediently sat, while Ye Ling told her father, "Dad, I’m going to tend to the kang, you talk."
She didn’t want to see Ye Qian acting like a Bai Lianhua.
Ye Qian, however, bit her lip in grievance, "Dad, does sister dislike ?"
The matter between the two daughters was difficult for Ye He Ping to diate, he simply said a few words and changed the subject, "That’s just your sister’s personality, don’t dwell on it, did you co because you heard from your mom?"
