426 Don't Mess with Me (6)

"Mom… I know you're mad at me. You can yell at me or hit me, please let it out."

"Are you joking? What will yelling and hitting you do? Will it stop you from being with the kid from the Qin Family? I can't believe you ignored all of my warnings… Huo Mian… I've raised you for more than 20 years, did I raise an idiot?"

Uncharacteristically, Yang Meirong didn't scold Huo Mian this time. However, her seemingly calm words hurt Huo Mian even more.

"No, mom, Qin Chu and I, we're just..."

"I don't want to listen to you. You've grown up and I can't control you any longer. I just can't believe that you're with the person who caused your Uncle Jing's death. How ridiculous."

Yang Meirong turned away as she said coldly, her eyes avoiding Huo Mian.

"Mom, Uncle Jing's death wasn't directly caused by Qin Chu. We can't blame him. It's unfair."

"And someone from my family died. Where's the fairness in that?" Yang Meirong raised her voice.
