Chapter 1746: Giving Up Was Equivalent To Losing Her Investment
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After leaving the Su family, Chen Lixue felt as if she had fallen from heaven to hell and had woken up from a dream!
In all the years that had passed, she had never been as terrified of the future as she was now. The thought of tomorrow filled her with dread.
This was especially so after she had enjoyed the riches and honor of the Su family. She would never be able to live a life as difficult as her younger days in Muyang town.
“Mother! How can you not consider the future of your daughters at all? At the very least, you have to save up for our dowry, right? If you say that you don’t have money now, what about our tuition fees and living expenses?”
Liang Danyi hadn’t been in Jingdu for long and had seen the Su family’s wealth and status as a whole new world. She couldn’t believe that her mother hadn’t gotten a single cent after so long!
Chen Lixue was already upset in the first place, and her eyes turned red when she heard that her daughters did not care about her hard work at all.
“I did all of this for you and your sister! If it weren’t for the fact that all of my efforts were for you to marry into a good family in the future, I wouldn’t have to spend so much effort building connections. Why would I have to give up my life as a rich and powerful wife? And now, you’re blaming me!”
Chen Lixue turned to look at the indifferent Liang Xinyi and was even more furious!
“Look at what you’ve done. Who in Jingdu doesn’t know about you? With your current state, who in Jingdu would dare to marry you? You’ve really disappointed me!”
She had put in so much effort to nurture her for so many years, but in the end, it was all for naught. Liang Xinyi’s reputation was ruined, and she had even lost her innocence. In the future, she could forget about getting married into a wealthy family. It would be good enough if someone else wanted her!
She had thought that she would be able to enjoy her life after she married into a wealthy family, but now it seemed like she was just building castles in the air!
The stigma of being turned away by others has always been Liang Xinyi’s sore spot, and she still couldn’t accept this fact until now. To rub salt into her wound, her mother, Chen Lixue, didn’t comfort her and kept criticizing her. The grievances in Liang Xinyi’s heart, together with the frustration of not having money, got the better of her, and she exploded instantly.
“Isn’t it all your fault? If you had caught Yun Yuanfeng back then and let me be born into the Yun family, I wouldn’t have had to work so hard to climb up the social ladder. If I was born as the eldest daughter of the Yun family, I wouldn’t have to scheme so hard to get what should belong to me in the first place! Now that you see I have no value and can’t let you live a life of luxury, you despise me, right? Since you despise me so much, I’ll leave! I don’t want to be an eyesore to you!”
Even though she was angry, Liang Xinyi was aware that once she left this house, she might have to sleep on the streets.
Chen Lixue only had the two of them as her bargaining chips now. Even if she had lost her value now, Chen Lixue would not let her run away from home. After all, she had placed too much hope on her for so many years.
She knew her mother well. She had invested so much in her that she would never give up until she received something in return.
Giving up was equivalent to losing her investment, and her mother was not stupid.
She had to play her part well and be ruthless with her words. As Liang Xinyi packed her things, she thought about how to get her mother to get the money to go abroad.
Chen Lixue snapped out of her trance and hurried to stop her.
“What are you doing? Have you learned how to run away from home after getting upset? You don’t have much money on you now. Where else can you go? Back then, you chose to follow me and left your father behind. Now, even if you want to go back, he might not welcome you with open arms!”
At the mention of Liang Weimin, Liang Xinyi suddenly thought of something. She stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Chen Lixue, “You’re right! I still have my father! Mom, go ask my father for help. For the sake of your two daughters, he won’t ignore you! Even if he had given you the custody rights, he is still obligated to provide for Danyi before she becomes an adult. He will definitely give you money!”
