Chapter 73: Heartache

Life is not without hope nor without children.

A phone call from her mother made her gloomy sky glow slightly. She thought that she wasn't left with nothing. She had an extra burden, which made her feel the burden of warmth.

So, she got on the bus in a good mood and 20 minutes before punching the clock, she went to Yin's Building. She smiled as she looked up at the top floor, thinking what kind of expression Yin Mojun would be when he saw her?

"Snapped! She slowly opened her eyes and tried to touch with her hand, but her cold forehead was hit hard again.

Then, many things smashed into her face, although there were no heavy objects, but the whole body was mixed with bad smell in an instant.

Then she heard howling from all around. "Bastard! You're a fox spirit! I finally caught you! The shameless little three!"

Not to mention a fight back, even the parry became a problem. Xia Yuxi closed her eyes tightly, squatted on the ground and buried her head in her chest."

Xia Yuxi squatted on the ground, listening to the growing screams around her, her heart was terrified, as if the middle-aged women who yelled for the next second would rush to punch and kick her.

However, as soon as she was ready to be beaten, nothing was heard, and even the rotten things thrown on her body stopped.

Xia Yuxi shook her shoulders and slowly raised her head. She was still timid, always preparing to hide again. But when she looked up, she found that there was no one around her, as if what had just happened was an illusion, but her clothes were really thrown with dirty things.

She stood up and looked around blankly. Some colleagues at work walked past her, covering her nose with a disgusting look, because at this moment she had been smashed beyond recognition. It is estimated that no one recognized her.

Xia Yuxi looked into the distance again, and was seeing several middle-aged women dragging infront of her in black, withdrawing in different directions.

She stood in place, choked her throat, then lowered her head quickly. She did not expect that what happened to Liu Zhiyan really spread to herself, and it was far more serious than she thought.

In the eyes of the world, how much they hate Xia Yuxi. She did not show up for more than a week, there are still people who are guarding where she work. She should listen to He Yiwei's persuasion, otherwise she would not be so embarrassed.

She also knew that the person who avoided her was sent by Wei Zexuan. Even if she escaped from the villa, that person still protected her secretly.

It's just their relationship, based on the existence of Liu Zhiyan, their relationship is getting farther and farther apart, because it is also mixed with the pressure of public opinion. Sad things don't have to be bad things, Xia Yuxi thought, 'Wei Zexuan should not find her again of these pressures!'

Raising her hand, Xia Yuxi took off an egg shell hanging from her hair, and just headed into the Yin's building. Yin Mojun said that in order to celebrate Xia Yuxi's return, as a boss he has to reward her something. So during this day, the man took her to the shopping mall to buy new work clothes, asked her to take a bath, and even held a celebration before work and to let the driver take her home.

The kind person said a good-faith lie and gave her a lot of warmth. But Xia Yuxi couldn't get up, she entered the door with a cold face.

On the sofa, He Yiwei sat in the center, staring at her face tightly from the second she entered. Xia Yuxi pretended not to see, took off her shoes, and walked towards the room with the bag in her hand.

"Xiao Xi, why don't you listen to my advice and have to go out?"

Seeing that Xia Yuxi didn't mean to answer, He Yi only got up and quickly caught up and grabbed the woman's arm.

He found that Xia Yuxi's body was light like a feather today, and she saw that there was some embarrassment in her look. He Yiwei asked worriedly, "Is there anything happening?"

"No." Xia Yuxi said, earning his hand.

"Where did you go today?"

"Go to Work. "

He Yiwei chuckled a laugh, because he didn't expect it to be the answer, and going to work meant everyday, instead of going out when she was bored.

"Xiaoxi, not now. If you are lonely, you can call me. If you need money, I can give it to you. Can you please stay at home?"

Xia Yuxi didn't know why he was so vigorous, and suddenly flung off the man's arm, "He Yiwei, tell me when can I hide? I am doing nothing wrong, but am I going to be a turtle in my life? I can call you while in trouble, I can borrow money from you, but my interpersonal relationship can't just be you for a lifetime, and I can't always rely on you to support my mother, can I?"

"Your mother?" Xia Yuxi closed her mouth and said nothing.

During the quietness for three seconds, He Yiwei felt that his words were too heavy. He has always been someone who did not disturb Xia Yuxi too much.

Xia Yuxi also realized that she once again lost her temper to her people who help her, said. "Sorry."

"Sorry." The two spoke in unison. He Yiwei shrugged his shoulders awkwardly, trying to laugh and smile a little ugly, "So... Are you going out tomorrow?"

"Need. "

"Did you encounter any bad things?"

Xia Yuxi paused for two or three seconds, and then seemed to say lightly, "Nothing happened, I just didn't feel good about it first." Then she quickly walked into her room.

Xia Yuxi, sitting in her bed, took a long breath. Although this method is not right, after a few yells with He Yiwei, she really relieved her sullen day.

She felt that the day after the divorce from Wei Zexuan, it seemed that someone had deliberately cut off the marriage between the two. First, the child was gone, and then she realized that Liu Zhiyan would not fulfill it, and now public opinion has changed their relationship, farther. She didn't want to struggle anymore, just let it go over time.

At this time, the phone in the bag rang, and Xia Yuxi sorted out her mood and found out her cellphone.

"Mom, why are you calling this time? Did you have dinner?"

It's a little different from yesterday's tone. Fang Jinghua's voice is slightly anxious today, "Xiaoxi, would you like to see Mom tomorrow?"

"Ming... tomorrow?"

"Well, mom will be waiting for you at home tomorrow to make your favorite sweet and sour catfish."

Xia Yuxi lowered her head for a while, then agreed with a smile, "Okay, then tomorrow."

Originally, Xia Yuxi wanted to say a few more words to her mother, or to talk about the unhappiness in her heart today, but Fang Jinghua closed the line hastily.

She didn't think too much, and started flipping through her wallet after hanging up the phone. There is probably a thousand dollars. It is enough to buy a gift for her mother, but if this money is spent, it means that Xia Yuxi's living expenses have been spent for this month.

But what is more important than the mother? Even eating the instant noodles are fine.

Xia Yuxi's thoughts is very different from the actual situation on Fang Jinghua's side."

"She has money?"

Fang Jinghua sat tightly on the chair and froze her palms. She whispered, "My daughter has no money."

Seeing the complexion of the person in front of her, she was so frightened that she couldn't care about the consequences. "You know Wei Zexuan! It's the rich president. He is my son-in-law, and you have read the newspaper some time ago."

The two men looked at each other and seemed to remember something. One of them laughed and licked his lips. "I didn't pay attention to any newspaper before, but I read the news last week. Is your daughter the one who became the third party for others, Xia Yuxi?"

The words were hard to hear. The old man's face was a little ugly, but he didn't dare to refute, "Well, it's Xia Yuxi."

"MD, this is really a mother and a wife, and her mother. Gambler, has a daughter to make a small fortune for others, and now it's mixed up with everyone. Is your Xia family really a famous family?"

Fang Jinghua gritted her teeth, and her face was hot, and she whispered for a long time, "Give me a few more days anyway, my daughter is here, and Wei Zexuan will give me money."

On the afternoon of the previous day, Wei Zexuan came to visit Fang Jinghua and was catching up with a debtor who blocked her at home.

Wei Zexuan sent people to check but was blocked. He asked Fang Jinghua if she had any other debts. Isn't her gambling again today?

Those who lend money should be angry with each other. If one person gets the money, the rest will follow. Or someone will be chase tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and everyday in the future!

So Fang Jinghua had no choice but to rush to call her daughter.

Because when Wei Zexuan came here yesterday, he told himself about the feelings and contradictions between the two. It can be seen that the boy of the Wei family still cares about Xia Yuxi. Otherwise, in his current status, why would he come to see such a distressed mother. So Fang Jinghua simply thought that as long as Xia Yuxi came, her son-in-law would follow, and her remaining debt would be easily settled.

She swears that shame is only done once, because she can't stand the people who abuse her, and even her Xiaoxi is poked at the backbone, which is something that no mother can stand. After all, she still has some conscience as a mother.

The arrival of Xia Yuxi was an hour earlier as Fang Jinghua envisioned, so when her daughter entered the door, she also just entered the kitchen to prepare food. "Xiao Xi, you can sit down first. Mom will cook for you. The action is fast." Fang Jinghua let her daughter into the room, and then quickly walked to the small sofa, sweeping the dusty place with her sleeve.

Then she stood there, with some distress and timidity.

Xia Yuxi flushed her eyes as she walked all the way from the door. She knew that her mother had a bad life, but she didn't know she had been so bad. The house is less than 40 square meters, but it looks very empty, because there is no decent furniture in the room, and only a set of sofas and coffee tables are left. She was wearing a flower-cloth shirt when she was crouching, because she looked thin and dangling because of her thinness. The hard work in recent years had slightly bent her back. Her face was covered with many wrinkles and already has a handful of white hair.

If they are strangers, Xia Yuxi must think this is a 60 year-old woman, but if she remembers correctly, her mother is only 49 years old this year!

Xia Yuxi sucked her nose and held her mother tightly with her little hand. "Mom, you are still the same as before, and it doesn't change anything from my impression. It's good."

Fang Jinghua touched her white hair subconsciously, and smiled awkwardly, "Old."

 "Not old." Xia Yuxi said forcefully, "They all said that I look like you and inherit your beauty."

In a word, Fang Jinghua almost cried, and then quickly broke her daughter's hand and said nervously, "You sit first, sit first. Mom is going to cook the fish for you."

 Xia Yuxi didn't give up, and let the old woman into the kitchen. She knew that it was her mother who wanted to do something for her, although she was very meager, it was also her affection for her.

So, she was sitting quietly in the small sofa, looking at the back, waiting. What she thought was, 'if she worked hard for two months, she should have enough money to rent a small apartment, and then pick up her mother. Living together, she will return to 49 years old and live without stress.' Fang Jinghua's cooking was also very saucy. Within half an hour, two dishes were placed on the coffee table infront of the sofa. A fish and a plate of vegetables, the old woman passed the bowl, Xia Yuxi took the chopsticks.

It feels like many years ago, the family was sitting around the dining table. At that time, the Xia family was really happy!

Fang Jinghua carefully looked at the tabletop and felt that everything was ready, so she turned to get a small bench. When she was about to sit down, Xia Yuxi grabbed the things in her hand. "Mom, you sit on the sofa, I can just sit on this."

"No, Xiaoxi, you sit on the sofa, you are the daughter-in-law of the Wei family, a noble person, mother is used to sitting on a small stool."

Xia Yuxi's nose was sore, she gave up the stool and sat up. When she raised her chopsticks, she whispered, "I'm not the daughter-in-law of the Wei family anymore."

Fang Jinghua froze for a moment, and then hurriedly asked, "How is that possible? Aren't you not divorced?"

Xia Yuxi heard something from her mother's words. She slightly looked up at Fang Jinghua, who stood beside her, and then frowned. She did not divorce, but how did the mother know?

In the past two years, they seem to have only made two phone calls. The first time was after the newly-married Jinghua got the money and called her. The second time was asking for money, and they didn't mention their marriage at all.

"Mum... you."

Fang Jinghua suddenly realized that she had made a mistake, and then quickly explained, "I read the previous newspaper, and it didn't say that you were divorced."
