Tang Yuyan immediately ordered him to stop talking.
"Mommy, she always bullies you !"
Tang Yuyan glanced at her son, "If you don’t want to stay here, then go back."
Nangong Xi wanted to say something but opened his mouth and, in the end, remained silent, pouting as he turned and left the hospital room!
He was already ten years old, so Tang Yuyan wasn’t worried about him running off.
Anyhow, she hadn’t left, so he wouldn’t leave the hospital.
Watching her son’s retreating figure, she turned around and continued clean up the shattered glass.
But having angered Nangong Feifei, her son’s fury was naturally vented on her, his mother!
"Haven’t you always pretended to be so saintly? How come, a simple request for water is too much for you!?"
Crouching on the ground picking up the shards of glass, Tang Yuyan paused for a moment when she heard this.
She didn’t consider herself saintly; she just didn’t want her family to live like enemies.
She believed she had not neglected this non-biological daughter of hers in the slightest, believing herself to be beyond reproach.
Ignoring her nonsense, Tang Yuyan continued cleaning up the glass fragments.
The more she ignored her, the angrier Nangong Feifei became!
Finally, she glanced angrily, grabbed a bottle of traditional medicine from the bedside, and harshly threw it at Tang Yuyan’s body, cursing, "If it weren’t for you, my mom wouldn’t have died! It’s all your fault, why didn’t you die outside, why did you come back and steal everything that belonged to my mom and me!"
The medicine bottle struck the back of her head, causing Tang Yuyan to wince in pain!
Raising her hand, she touched the spot on the back of her head, which instantly swelled into a lump.
Taking a deep breath, she stood up, facing Nangong Feifei, her face seemingly fragile but now carried a few traces of newfound dignity.
"Feifei, I can tolerate your capriciousness, but I hope you understand one thing. Had it not been for your mother’s unscrupulous methods, Mingchuan and I wouldn’t have separated for over a decade because of that misunderstanding! You may not be my birth daughter, but for over a decade, I have treated you fairly! If not for the sake of your father and your grandfather, I wouldn’t need to tolerate your presence!"
Back then, if her mother hadn’t drugged Mingchuan’s drink during a social event, he wouldn’t have mistaken her mother for her, leading to disgraceful conduct under the influence of alcohol!
Soon after, her mother brandished a pregnancy report, flaunting it before her in triumph. Deceived and heartbroken, she had decided to leave, leading to their reunion with Mingchuan only decades later.
However, upon her return, she heard that her mother’s schemes had not succeeded; even though she carried a child of the Nangong Family, Mingchuan hadn’t thought of marrying her.
Only after the child was born did Nangong He decide to take Nangong Feifei back to the Nangong Family to avoid scandal and protect the family’s reputation.
Although she didn’t remember these things, Mingchuan would not lie to her.
With her words, Nangong Feifei was rendered momentarily speechless.
For over a decade, she had indeed never shown her anger toward her, but that did not make Nangong Feifei feel any fondness toward Tang Yuyan; contrarily, she despised her and her son!
Although Mingchuan also loved her, the affection he had for Nangong Xi was clearly much more profound, which made her always believe that they had deprived her and her mother of what was rightfully theirs!
