After being warned by Mr. Huo’s gaze, Mrs. Huo realized that she had been too anxious just now. Huo You had been very obedient when they had first acknowledged her as their daughter and they thought that she was a good person. Unexpectedly, that was just her disguise. After returning to the Huo Family, she gradually revealed her scheming and foolish side. At that moment, Mrs. Huo really regretted being bewitched by Huo You and kicking Huo Tian out of the Huo Family for her so-called biological daughter.
She took a deep breath and barely suppressed the anger in her heart. She eased her tone and said to Huo You, “Youyou, your parents raised Tiantian. To put it bluntly, there’d be deep feelings over 18 years, even if it was toward a dog. Moreover, Tiantian has been very dependent on us since she was young. Your father and I are not cold-blooded animals, so it’s impossible for us to not have any feelings for her. However, back then, in order to make you happy, we endured the pain and chased Tiantian away. We’ve done so much for you, so why can’t you empathize with us?”
Mrs. Huo’s expression was pitiful and she looked like a caring mother who was very worried for her children. However, Huo You knew that it was just a disguise. In her previous life, she had been deceived by her mother’s appearance. Many times, she had wanted to get a divorce, but her mother always put on such a difficult expression, telling her how difficult the Huo Family was, forcing Huo You to give up on the idea of a divorce time and time again.
After her rebirth, Huo You was no longer going to allow herself to be controlled by Mrs. Huo.
She lowered her eyes slightly and didn’t look at Mrs. Huo’s fake attitude. Looking at her, Mrs. Huo thought that she had convinced Huo You, so she continued, “Youyou, I know you have arrogance in your heart and you’re unwilling to lower your head to Tiantian, but you have to understand your parents. Our family is one now. If your father and I are taken revenge by Tiantian’s biological father, you won’t be able to get any benefits either, right?”
Huo You was silent for a long while. Just as Mrs. Huo was starting to feel a little anxious, she looked up and looked at Mrs. Huo calmly. “Mother, you’ve said so much only because you can’t put down your pride, so you asked me to lower my head for you. But Huo Tian isn’t a fool. She knows better than me why you chased her out of the Huo Family.”
She said coldly, “You guys are saying that you chased Huo Tian away in consideration of my feelings. But the truth is, you just despise her for being in a rebellious phase. Be it her dressing or her behavior in public, you all feel embarrassed. We know each other very well, so can you stop with the pretense?”
Mr. and Mrs. Huo’s expressions turned very grim. After their hypocritical appearances were exposed, they finally revealed their disgusting inner nature.
Mr. Huo looked at Huo You coldly. Mrs. Huo clutched her chest but forgot to breathe. She stared at Huo You with a murderous gaze for a long while, then suddenly stood up, strode forward, and raised her hand to slap her. Huo You didn’t expect Mrs. Huo to suddenly make things difficult for her. It was too late for her to back off, so she could only receive Mrs. Huo’s slap.
Mrs. Huo was probably too angry and used all her strength to slap Huo You. A few red marks appeared on her face.
Huo You covered her face and glared at Mrs. Huo angrily through her messy hair.
The muscles on Mrs. Huo’s face twitched as she forced the words out through gritted teeth. “Huo You, you damned ingrate. If we had known earlier, we wouldn’t have brought you back!”
Huo You pushed her messy hair back and smiled mockingly as if she really appreciated Mrs. Huo’s loss of composure. She said slowly, “Yeah, you guys regret letting Huo Tian and I return to our respective identities. Unfortunately, there’s no medicine for regret in this world..”
