Chapter 203 - Heartache

203 Heartache

Ji Yue’s heart immediately ached for Ming Liuyi. Her son was too much of a scumbag! She did not know what method he had used to deceive Liuyi, this poor girl, to such an extent.

If Ji Yue had just gotten married and heard Yao Gui say this, she would have just chopped off his head.

Ji Yue frowned and said, “Liuyi, marriage is a two-way relationship. Both parties must be equal. You can’t spoil Zizhou like this.”

When Ming Liuyi heard the “Okay” at the beginning of the recording, she knew that Yao Zizhou was being sarcastic. She just thought it was too funny for his mother to catch him in the act, so she could not help but laugh.

!!

“Mother,” Yao Zizhou said helplessly, “you should’ve known from the recording that it wasn’t safe back then to speak my mind, so I was being sarcastic. I was afraid that someone would do something to Liuyi.”

When Ji Yue heard this, her expression became better. She said, “I knew it! There was no way my son would be such an irresponsible scumbag.”

Ming Liuyi said, “Th-thank you?”

Ji Yue smiled and said, “I really like having you as my daughter-in-law. If Yao Gui, that old man, bullies you in the future, just tell me. I’ll immediately come to back you up. If you have any grievances, just say it. Don’t bear it all by yourself. I haven’t even given you a bribe to call me mom, yet. Tomorrow, I’ll have someone transfer it straight to your card, and you can spend it yourself.”

Ming Liuyi was a little embarrassed. She said, “A-actually—”

Ji Yue knew what Ming Liuyi wanted to say and immediately interrupted her, saying, “Let the past be the past. I don’t care if you’re young and in love. You can also live well by yourself.”

The two of them chatted away happily, and ignored Yao Zizhou as if he did not exist.

“I’m going outside to take a look, you ladies can continue with your chat.” Yao Zizhou stood up.

“Hurry up and get out of here,” Ji Yue said. “You’re a grown man, and you do take up so much space.”

With that, Ji Yue pulled Ming Liuyi aside to look for Yao Zizhou’s childhood photographs and school projects, and opened them up for her to see. Ming Liuyi winked at Yao Zizhou, and he walked out, feeling assured.

“After you get married, don’t just focus on your husband,” Ji Yue said. “If there’s something you want to do, then just do it.” 𝐟𝚛e𝗲𝚠𝗲𝑏𝓃𝑜ν𝐞𝘭. c𝒐𝓂

Ming Liuyi looked at Ji Yue in surprise. Ji Yue’s words were the complete opposite of Yao Gui’s.

Ji Yue saw Ming Liuyi’s shocked expression and asked, “Why are you so surprised? Could it be that the old b*stard Yao Gui has brainwashed you? You can’t listen to him. What ‘taking care of the family after getting married’? What ‘be a good wife’? That’s all bullsh*t!

Ming Liuyi shook her head and said “…Mr. Yao thinks that I’m not qualified to be a good wife.”

When Ji Yue heard this, she immediately laughed and said, “Although the Yao family is relatively large, not everyone is valued. Look at me, I left them, just like that.”

“I understand,” Ming Liuyi said. “I won’t give up on what I want to achieve.”

The two of them chatted for a long time before they went downstairs together, where Yao Zizhou was waiting for them.

“Mom, are you coming with me to my place tonight?” asked Yao Zizhou.

Ji Yue said, “No, I’ll be staying in the area for a few more days. I’ll meet some friends first before I leave. You can send me off when the time comes.”

Yao Zizhou did not say anything more and nodded. Ming Liuyi held Yao Zizhou’s arm and said, “Mom, I’ll visit you when I have time.”

Ji Yue smiled and nodded, then left the Yao family’s main manor.

“Let’s go back, too,” Yao Zizhou said.

Ming Liuyi looked around and said, “Aren’t you going to let your father know?”

“…Dad became upset and left,” said Yao Zizhou.

Ming Liuyi was speechless.

The sky was dark, the lights were bright, and the night wind was blowing.

Yao Zizhou suddenly had an impulse and said, “Let’s go for a drive.”

Ming Liuyi smiled and said, “Okay.”

The skylight opened, and Ming Liuyi raised her head, only to see a sky full of stars.

With the crisis resolved, Ming Liuyi was very relaxed. When they passed by a burger shop, Ming Liuyi said, “I’m not full yet. I think I’d like to eat some fried chicken and fries, and a bottle of Cola!”

Yao Zizhou immediately drove Ming Liuyi to get some fast food. The two of them did not eat in the shop. Instead, they brought the food back to the car. Ming Liuyi ate a crispy french fry and immediately fed one to Yao Zizhou. Ming Liuyi said, “Try it. These french fries are just right. They’re quite crispy.”

Yao Zizhou opened his mouth and ate it. It was indeed crispy.

At the red light, Yao Zizhou looked at Ming Liuyi. Ming Liuyi also looked back at him, and her eyes were brighter than the stars.

Their eyes met, and the atmosphere instantly began to heat up.
