1238 Subukan mong sabihin ulit

"Si mommy ko," sabi ni Tang Tang.

"Kalokohan!" Biglang nanigas ang mukha ng babae. Naiinis siya nang kanyang sinabi, "Malapit nang pumasok si lola at mommy mo. Bakit walang katuturan ang mga pinagsasabi mo at parang isa kang brat na bigla ka na lang magsasabi na ang isang animal na gala ay ang mommy mo…"

"Who are you calling a stray animal?!"

"Sino yung tinatawag mo na galang animal?"

Nameless Nie snatched his phone out of Ye Wanwan's hands before that girl could finish speaking. He coldly stared at the girl and said, "Try saying that again?"

Kinuha ni Nameless Nie ang phone sa kamay ni Ye Wan Wan bago pa matapos ang sasabihin sana ng babae. Tinitigan niya ng masama ang babae at sinabi, "Subukan mo ulit sabihin 'yon?"

"Brother?" The girl looked at Nameless Nie with furrowed brows.

"Kuya?" Nakakunot na tiningnan ng babae si Nameless Nie.

"She took care of Tangtang in China for so long and she's my friend! If you run your mouth off again, I'm gonna slap your mouth raw when I come back!" Nameless Nie coldly berated her.

"Matagal niyang inalaagan si Tang Tang sa China at kaibigan ko siya! Kapag magsasalita ka na naman ng walang katuturan, sasampalin ko ang bunganga mo kapag nakabalik na ako diyan!" Pinagalitan siya ni Nameless Nie.

"How would I know?" The girl looked clueless. "As soon as I entered, I heard Tangtang calling this girl his mom. How would I know she's your friend? Are you an idiot?"

"Paano ko malalaman?" Mukhang walang muwang ang babae. "Pagkapasok na pagkapasok ko, narinig ko na sinabi ng batang ito na nanay niya daw ang babaeng 'yan. Paano ko malalaman na kaibigan mo pala siya? Bobo ka ba?"

"Is that so?" Nameless Nie turned to look at Devotee and Spray of Flowers.

"Ganoon ba?" Tumalikod si Nameless Nie upang tingnan si Spray of Flowers at ang Deboto.

"Probably…" Spray of Flowers nodded.

"Siguro…" tumango si Spray of Flowers.

The girl next to the Little Devil in the video was the third miss of the Independent State's Nie family, Tangtang's aunt and Nameless Nie's third sister.

Ang babae na katabi ni Tang Tang sa video ay ang third miss ng Nie Family na mula sa Independent State. Siya ang tita ni Tang Tang at kapatid ni Nameless Nie.

"Oh…" Nameless Nie muttered.

"Ah…" bumulong si Nameless Nie.

As he said that, an elegant-looking woman in luxurious clothing and a girl with exceptional looks entered the lounge shoulder-to-shoulder.

Habang nagsasalita si Nameless Nie, biglang pumasok ang isang babae na may enggrandeng pananamit at may isang maganda rin babae na pumasok sa lounge.

"Third Child, why are you shouting? Did you give Tangtang the food yet?" The elegant woman walked forward and looked at the third miss.

"Anong sinisigaw-sigaw mo, Third Child? Binigay mo na ba kay Tang Tang yung pagkain niya?" Naglakad at tiningnan ng eleganteng babae si third miss.

Before Third Miss Nie could say anything, the elegant woman suddenly saw Ye Wanwan in the video, and her expression instantly chilled.

Bago pa makapagsalita si Nameless Nie, biglang nagulat ang eleganteng babae nang makita niya si Ye Wan Wan sa video.

Ever since Tangtang returned to the Independent State, he had been in a terrible mood and even called for his fake "Mommy" from China in his dreams.

Simula noong bumalik si Tang Tang sa Independent State, lagi siyang wala sa mood at tinawag niya pa na "Mommy" sa kanyang panaginip ang pekeng nanay niya sa China.

"Tangtang… It's me who's your mommy…" The exceptionally looking girl walked up. Derision and contempt surfaced in her eyes as she glanced at Ye Wanwan from the corner of her eyes.

"Tang Tang… ako ang mommy mo…" may isang magandang babae ang biglang lumapit. Naging mapahamak at naging mapangutya ang naging mga mata ni Ye Wan Wan nang makita niya ang babae sa video.

"That doesn't prevent me from having one more mommy," Tangtang expressionlessly said with a glance at the girl.

"Hindi mapipigilan 'non na magkaroon pa ako ng isang mommy," manhid na tiningnan ni Tang Tang ang babae.

The girl's eyes turned misty and she sadly took a few steps back with her hands covering her mouth. "Mommy was wrong… I shouldn't have left you… I shouldn't have left home… I didn't fulfill a mother's responsibilities… and allow someone else to take advantage and sidle in. It's my fault… It's all my fault…"

Naging malamig ang mga mata ng babae at malungkot siyang napa-urong habang nakatakip ang kamay niya sa kanyang bibig. "Mali si Mommy… Hindi dapat kita iniwan… dapat hindi ako umalis ng bahay… hindi ko pinangatawanan ang responsibilidad ng isang ina… at hinayaan ko na may ibang tao ang gumanap ng responsibilidad ko. Kasalanan ko ito… kasalanan ko…"

"Worriless!"

The wealthy woman quickly went up to comfort her and glanced at Tangtang with mild reproach.

May isang mayaman na babae ang biglang lumapit para suyuin siya at bigla nitong tiningnan si Tang Tang.

The most pampered member of the Independent State's Nie family was their second miss, Worriless Nie. She was the true beloved member of the Nie family. Moreover, Madam Nie felt lingering guilt toward her because she left home when she was young, so how could Madam Nie bear to see her precious daughter suffering such a grievance?

Ang pinaka-inalagaan na miyembro ng Nie family sa Independent State ay si second miss, si Worriless Nie. Siya ang tunay na pinakamamahal na miyembro ng Nie family. At tsaka, nagsisi si Madam Nie dahil lumayas siya sa kanilang pamamahay noong bata pa lamang siya, kaya bakit hahayaan ni Madam Nie sa malungkot ng sobra ang kanyang anak na babae?

"Nameless Nie, let me tell you, don't accept it the next time Tangtang video calls you!" Madam Nie said as she looked at Nameless Nie.

"Nameless Nie, sinasabi ko sayo, huwag mo nang sasagutin kapag nag-video call pa ulit sayo si Tang Tang!" Sabi ni Madam Nie habang nakatingin siya kay Nameless Nie.

"How's it my fault? It wasn't me who initiated the call. You should tell that little ancestor yourself! You can't blame me…" Nameless Nie was unwilling to accept this.

"Paano ko naging kasalanan ito? Hindi naman ako ang tumawag. Sabihin mo 'yan sa munting ninuno! Huwag mo akong sisihin…" hindi ito matanggap ni Nameless Nie.

Madam Nie glanced at Nameless Nie before turning to Ye Wanwan. She sighed. "Miss Wanwan, I'm very grateful to you for taking care of Tangtang during the past few months… However, Tangtang's mother has been found, so I hope Miss Wanwan won't maintain any contact with Tangtang from now on. Miss Ye doesn't hope to see Tangtang at odds with his own mother, right? We can satisfy any requests or compensation that you want… but we hope Miss Ye can also understand us old people's feelings…"

Tiningnan muna ni Madam Nie si Nameless Nie bago niya tingnan si Ye Wan Wan, at bigla siyang nagbuntong hininga. "Miss Wan Wan, malaki ang pasasalamat ko sayo dahil inalagaan mo ng ilang buwan si Tang Tang… pero, nahanap na kasi ang tunay na ina ni Tang Tang, kaya umaasa ako na hindi mo na kakausapin si Tang Tang simula ngayon. Ayaw naman ni Miss Wan Wan na magkaroon ng igitan si Tang Tang sa kanyang tunay na ina, hindi ba? Pwede naming ibigay ang kahit magkano o kahit anong kahilingan na gusto mo… pero sana naiintindihan ni Miss Wan Wan ang pakiramdam ng matanda…"
