She enjoyed the feeling of being cared for by Huo Zhenning. She could now feel that this man was hers entirely, under control.
“Dear, who would care for you if it’s not me? Take some good rest, you look pale.” Huo Zhenning laid a blanket over her lap.
Lu Zhaoyang watched on. Her mother had lost her baby, but she was still happy with her life.
“Dad, can I sleep with my mom tonight? I miss her. Don’t worry, I will take good care of her,” she asked softly, seeing that it was late at night.
“Of course. Yang Yang, you are so much more considerate and understanding than that little rascal!”
Huo Zhenning looked at Lu Zhaoyang, his eyes gentle. “You two must have a lot to tell each other after so long.”
“Thank you, Dad.” Lu Zhaoyang said softly while she held Xue Yuming as they were going upstairs.
Huo Zhenning’s opinion about Huo Yunting was just as bad as hers.
Had it not been for Huo Yunting, who drugged her mom, her mom would not have to endure such a catastrophe. She could have suffered some sequela.
The breeze made the leaves rustle at night. Lu Zhaoyang and Xue Yuming lay on the bed, but they did not feel sleepy at all.
After a long while, Xue Yuming suddenly said, “Yang Yang.”
“Yes Mom?” Lu Zhaoyang flipped over, facing her mom.
The room was dark. She could not see Xue Yuming’s face.
After a long while, Xue Yuming only said, “Well, I took the abortion pills myself.”
Her voice was soft and calm.
Lu Zhaoyang, who was initially drowsy, was jolted awake now.
What?
What did she just hear? Her mom took the mifepristone pill herself?
“Why… why?” Lu Zhaoyang’s voice trembled.
“Yang Yang, I am old. Even the doctors have said that I could risk my life to have a baby, and I have thought it over for a long time and decided not to gamble with my own life.” Xue Yuming paused before continuing. “It is a wile. He loves me more now. What’s more, his relationship with Huo Yunting has not been good all these while. Since Huo Yunting does not respect me, and he makes our life in the Huo family difficult, I might as well drive a wedge between them and take things into my own hands.”
Lu Zhaoyang’s stomach churned. She could not believe what she just heard. It was as if she met her mom for the first time.
“Having a baby was just as life-threatening as a miscarriage. I feel half-dead now, but it is all worth it!” Xue Yuming suddenly held her hand. “Yang Yang, this is all for the good of us both. Please remember, you should not have anything to do with the younger master, and both of us can only gain a foothold in the Huo family. You don’t want to see your mom out of here and relive the hard life, do you?”
“…okay.”
While Lu Zhaoyang spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.
Even tiger would not eat its own cubs; she could not believe what her mom had done—killing her own baby in the womb and pinning it on others—all for the sake of money.
The kind and gentle mom she knew had changed to becoming foxy.
“I am tired, I have to sleep first. I feel better now after talking to you, but please keep this just between you and me.” Xue Yuming said gently as she let off her hand.
Lu Zhaoyang did not respond. Her tears rolled down her cheeks, soaking her hair below.
