Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Liang Danyi stood in the cold wind for a long time until she was shivering from the cold. Then, she turned around stiffly and walked into the crowd. She took her phone out of her pocket and called Liang Xinyi.
The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered. She knew very well that Liang Xinyi must be dead drunk on the bed.
She touched the few dollars she had left in her pocket and gritted her teeth as she walked to the bus stop to take a bus. Then, she walked home in the cold wind for more than ten minutes.
The hatred in her heart grew with every step she took. She had never thought that she would be in such a pathetic state.
Once they reached home, Liang Danyi took off her heavy woolen coat and threw it at Liang Xinyi, who had fallen asleep on the bed. She squeezed herself into the noisy bus all the way back and was sandwiched between two men. She couldn’t take it anymore and felt extremely disgusted!
She ran back home, and when she saw the unconscious Liang Xinyi, she could no longer hold back her anger!
“You still have the cheek to sleep! Get up!” Liang Danyi grabbed her jacket and hit Liang Xinyi, while dragging her up from the bed.
Liang Xinyi had been working as a hostess and drinking the whole night. She was tired, hungry, and drunk. After Liang Danyi shook her back and forth a few times, the smell of alcohol rushed up and she vomited on Liang Danyi.
The sour smell of alcohol rushed to her nose, and Liang Danyi’s face instantly darkened. She was so disgusted that she almost vomited. She screamed and pushed Liang Xinyi onto the bed, running toward the bathroom.
“Liang Xinyi, you disgust me!” A grumbling voice came from the washroom. Liang Xinyi was slightly more awake now. She shook her head in pain and looked at the mess on the floor, her stomach churning.
She hurriedly got up and ran to the bathroom. The moment she entered, she saw Liang Danyi’s disgusted expression. She retched a few times before looking up.
“Where did you go? Why are you getting drunk every day? Do you still want to study abroad? Do you want to climb higher?”
“Who the f*ck doesn’t want to? But are we rich now? Do we have connections? Do we have a backer? We have nothing! Other than a useless mother, what else do we have? If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have followed her back then. I should have followed Dad! Then I wouldn’t have to suffer like this!”
If she had known earlier, she would have known better! She regretted going to the Su family with Chen Lixue the most. Not only did it all go to waste, she even lost everything! Her efforts were all for nothing!
At the mention of Chen Lixue, Liang Danyi snapped back to her senses. “Mom went to look for Dad today. She made a scene at the office building and even scratched the security guards. She was arrested by the police!”
“Where’s our father? Is he just going to watch her get arrested? Where did he go as the deputy director?”
“Dad has been overseas for the past few days and isn’t in the police station at all! We’ve wasted a trip!”
“You’ve been to so many places, but you couldn’t find anyone to ask for your father’s phone number?”
“The security guards won’t even let us in. After what we did today, everyone is consciously avoiding me. How am I supposed to ask? It was not easy for me to find out that Mom had been arrested! Do you think anyone can enter and leave the building like a market?”
“Idiot! You can’t even handle such a small matter!”
Liang Xinyi was also annoyed. She had not been able to contact her father. If she had not gone to work as a hostess to earn some money, they might not even have been able to afford their living expenses now!
“What should we do now? We have to bail Mom out of the police station, right? She only has the two of us left in Jingdu!”
“No! She asked for it herself! After living in Jingdu, she even brought her rural nature here. Does she think that just because she made a big fuss, people will compromise? She should take a look at where she is. If we don’t let her suffer a little, she won’t learn her lesson and will drag us down in the future! Besides, the bail is a large sum of money. We don’t have any money at all. Let her stay in the police station. She won’t starve to death anyway!”
“…” At the mention of money, Liang Danyi knew that she didn’t have any money, so she didn’t dare say anything.
