Joining Huang Dawei smoking on the sofa, Huang Yuqing’s face was ugly, grimacing at the pair standing before the coffee table. “So what if your mom’s the one that paid for it? Don’t forget that my dad’s name is written in as a co-owner of this property. Now that your mom has one leg in the coffin, that means my dad dictates what happens here. If he says to chase you all out, then we will! Right, Dad?”
Huang Dawei was blowing smoke circles, his face cold, silently affirming what Huang Yuqing had said.
“You… you guys have gone too far… too far…” Yu Chenshi was old, and these kinds of events just exhausted her even more. She wanted to hang on for her daughter, to hold on to this home, but how are they supposed to do that with only her and Yu Luoluo?
Huang Dawei kept trying to use Yu Luoluo, wanting nothing more than to sell her off, and Yu Chenshi continued living in perpetual fear of that happening. When will this kind of life finally end?
Huang Dawei was getting even more pissed off at hearing the old lady cry. “Cry, cry, cry! What are you crying about! Your daughter’s not dead yet! Isn’t it too early to be crying!”
“You—!” Yu Chenshi pointed at Huang Dawei with a shaky finger. This man kept cursing at her daughter like that, crushing a piece out of her heart every time he did.
Yu Chenshi had two daughters. Her younger one was now nowhere to be found after running off with someone, and her elder one was controlled by the jerk Huang Dawei, not knowing whether she’ll live or die on any given day.
Yu Chenshi could feel her body giving up; she felt that she couldn’t hang on anymore.
“Granny!” Yu Luoluo scrambled to hold her up. “Don’t go leave us just yet! Please! Karma will avenge you!”
“Haha!” Huang Dawei scoffed. “Karma? I’ll see who dares touch me! The Ling family’s supporting me, and even brother Kui has to give way to me. What can the two of you do about it?”
Yu Chenshi sobbed silently, wondering how blind she must have been back then to have agreed to her daughter and this scumbag’s marriage…
Yu Luoluo’s anger got better of her, and the word flew out of her before she could even stop it, “Tianya—” The moment it left her mouth, Ling Tianya’s warning rang in her brain, and she shut up.
“Tianya?” Huang Yuqing chuckled. “You’re talking about Ling Tianya? She’s enjoying her luxurious life right now at the peak of her career and has forgotten who you were a long time ago! Don’t forget that Ling Tianya’s a Ling family member. You should know how much the Ling family hates the Yu family. Stop your daydreaming!”
Yu Chenshi’s already despondent eyes became even more depressed.
Huang Yuqing hated hearing the name Ling Tianya. If not for her, she would still be Ling Yuqing. She would still be the prized princess of the Ling family. And yet now, she could only stay in this lousy place, facing these lousy people every day, and it was horrendous.
“Daddy, I say to just chase them out. This place is not big enough for all of us in the first place, and the two of them take up so much space. I had wanted to transform the basement into my gym, and yet now they’re taking it up!”
The basement is without any air conditioning, without windows, with merely a vent. It was extremely hot in the summer, even freezing in the winter. Ever since Yu Qingzi ended up in the hospital and the house was taken over by Huang Dawei and Huang Yuqing, Yu Chenshi and Yu Luoluo were forced out of their original home and the two of them squeezed into the basement.
“You’re just taking advantage of us!” Yu Luoluo’s ears burned with the anger that Huang Yuqing’s words brought. She’s never seen someone so shameless!
With a loud slap, Huang Dawei’s hand slapped down onto the coffee table, the cigarette still within ger grasp. “So what! Let me tell you, Yu Luoluo, you’d better dress up all pretty and apologize to Kui tomorrow. Only then will I let you off. If not, I’ll chase all of you out, and I’ll pull the plug on your mother! A vegetable just lying in the hospital—what a waste of money!”
