Chapter 338 Ye Qingâs Darkening
Hai Xue did not expect her son to speak so directly; how could a girl accept this?
Feelings that shouldnât exist, and yet he spoke so bluntly!
Tears suddenly streamed down Ye Qingâs face: "Brother Dongxing, but I have nowhere else to go now."
Gu Dongxing remained unmoved: "Who says you have nowhere to go? You have your own home. Even if your stepmother and stepsister treat you poorly, your father is still good to you."
Otherwise, he wouldnât have gone to such lengths to entrust her to him. Even pressing his stepwife to return Ye Qingâs motherâs dowry to her.
"Besides, you belonged to a unit before you were married. With your fatherâs position, returning to work there is not difficult, and you can start your own family, instead of coming here to my momâs place, wasting your prime years in this mountain village."
After learning that Ye Qing actually spoke ill of Xiao Meng in front of Mom, making Mom have a bad impression of her, he regretted bringing her to see his mother upon Ye Qingâs request.
The little thing was right; his lack of interest in her did not mean she felt the same way about him!
Since she couldnât guarantee her harmlessness, then he could only drive her away. Even if it made him appear heartless and ungrateful, he didnât care anymore.
He could not tolerate anyone who hurt Xiao Meng!
Hearing her sonâs words, Hai Xueâs heart was shaken. Yes, Ye Qing always emphasized that she had nowhere to go, making herself believe that without them, she couldnât survive, softening her own heart.
But she had forgotten that Ye Qing originally belonged to a unit, that her illness had healed, and she could completely go back to her own job.
Everyoneâs path in life can only be walked by themselves; no one else can take responsibility for it.
Hai Xue then remembered what was said about Jiang Mengyu running away from home.
At that time, although she didnât directly say that Jiang Mengyu left home because she had accepted her as her goddaughter, everything she implied led her to that conclusion.
But who knew, it was not about running away from home at all, but due to expending all her power treating her and suffering backlash, Jiang Mengyu was taken away by her master for treatment.
Even though just now, Hai Xue said that her dissatisfaction towards Jiang Mengyu was because her son had a hard time finding her and it affected his work.
From a motherâs perspective, she could understand her.
But from a fair standpoint, she did not agree with her behavior.
After all, exalted to the heavens, it was that Jiang Mengyu who had saved her life. Even if she only owed her son, she couldnât ignore the girlâs lifesaving grace.
Even if the person who saved you is your love rival, you canât be ungrateful after receiving someoneâs kindness, and certainly not deliberately guide others to have dissatisfaction with that Jiang Mengyu.
Such an unkind person, she would definitely not accept as her daughter-in-law!
Rather than tearing faces apart and becoming enemies later, itâs better to let her go now while thereâs still some sentiment left.
Thinking this, Hai Xue spoke up in support: "Yes, Qingqing, you should go back. The Ye Family is, after all, your home. Your mom is gone, but your dad is still there. I canât keep you here forever, causing misunderstandings.
You feel like you have no relatives now because youâve closed yourself off. Go back, go back to your job! Open your heart, find a good man, and build your own family, then you will have relatives."
Ye Qing, hearing Hai Xue say this, knew she could no longer stay.
She was filled with anger and hatred, screaming internally: When I was a child, you, Gu Dongxing, were so good to me; why now, as we grow older, am I no longer in your eyes?
Is it just because I said a few bad words about that Jiang Mengyu that you all hold on to it?
Why are you all only worried about Jiang Mengyuâs misunderstanding, yet disregard the hurt you caused me, repeatedly wanting to drive me away?
I have been careful and trying so hard to please you, why canât you see my efforts?
