YM778.TV Chapter 520: 520: You're not my real mother, are you?
Was it because she had insulted Qiao Yin, and this had elicited in him a deep-seated abhorrence and a reaction of rejection?
Or was it that his mother wasn’t really the kind-hearted woman he’d initially perceived her to be; rather, she was a mother with a highly strung personality and a malicious heart?
Lu Lingche realized that he barely knew the people around him. He had only ever seen the outward appearance, never really delving into their inner thoughts and motivations.
He spoke in a nonchalant manner, “I hope you don’t insult Qiao Yin anymore. Whether I allow her into my life or not is entirely my decision. If you need to vent, you can let it all out on me. This matter has nothing to do with her. Don’t tell me you thought she willingly returned with me?”
Madam Lu was speechless and wide-eyed, “What is the meaning of this? Did you force Qiao Yin to return with you?”
“Yes, I did force her to come back.”
“Have you lost your mind? Why would you force her to return? You have Yuyi now. You cannot touch other women! Let alone bring them into our home!”
Lu Lingche coldly stared at her, “Are you saying I should stay single for the rest of my life, never touch another woman again? Just how much do you despise me to say such a thing?”
Fearing he would discover he wasn’t her biological son, Madam Lu, quickly softened her tone and placated, “No son, that’s not what I mean. I believe you misunderstood me! I don’t want you to be alone for the rest of your life. We do have Yuyi, right? Isn’t she pretty enough to become your woman in the future?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Lingche felt sickened and disgusted, “She’s not my woman. How many times do I need to repeat this to you?!”
“She’s carrying your child now, how can she not be your woman? You owe her an apology. You should be responsible for her. How can you say such words and go out looking for other women to tease her?
Lu Lingche, with an indifferent look on his face, said, “I am fulfilling my responsibilities. I divorced Qiao Yin as per your wish, and carried out a wedding ceremony with Yuyi following your and dad’s preferences, thereby ensuring she retains her dignity.”
“Moreover, ever since Yuyi fell pregnant, you’ve given away billions in gifts. Isn’t that enough?”
“Do you want me to sacrifice my entire life for you to be content?”
“Who are you more partial to, your son or your daughter?”
“Do I need to undergo a paternity test? Don’t tell me, you’re not my birth mother?”
Upon hearing this, Madam Lu’s expression subtly changed.
Nevertheless, she was skilled at masking her thoughts. As soon as her expression slipped, she broke down in loud sobs, “You saying such things are as good as stabbing me in the heart! Yuyi was the girl I chose as your brother’s future wife. She’s the best, most virtuous child!”
“I asked you to marry her only because I cared about your well-being. What do you mean by ‘sacrifice your entire life?’ Is this how you see me? You think I’m a wicked mother, who doesn’t love her son?”
“Let me tell you this, only Yuyi truly cares for you. All the other girls out there, they’re only attracted to our family fortune!”
“You’re so ungrateful. I have paved the way for you, striving to protect you and Yuyi’s child. Not a single word of thanks is all right, but now you’re questioning whether I’m your birth mother? Aren’t you afraid of retribution?”
Lu Lingche watched her cry to the point of near-collapse. Her eyes were so swollen that he had to relent, “Fine, if you wish to live here, please do.”
Madam Lu stopped crying abruptly, and asked somewhat incredulously, “Lingche, do you really mean that? You really want me to live here?”
“Yeah, absolutely.”
“What about Yuyi? She also wants to live here. She quite likes your villa.”
“Let her live here too!”
Lan Yuyi couldn’t help but feel overjoyed, the happiness arriving so suddenly that she felt a little overwhelmed, “Lingche, you’re finally willing to let me live with you!”
