Chapter 559 – The More You Hate Them, The More I Will Like Them.
At the same time, in some silent corner of the school.
"Ms Zhen, can you give me the explanations of your action? What's the meaning of all this?" Feng Yi Lan asked, closing her eyes to restrict her tone. Her jaws already clenched tight in irritation and temper. Earlier, she has seen the lady on the stage but has never thought that she would be pulled by her like this to the corner.
Zhen Qinrou was at once disappointed with her daughter's tone. Though last time she saw the things messing up, she thought that after some time everything would come out well. After all, which child could remain mad at their mother for a long time? Probably no one!
"Yi Lan, what's with your attitude? Are you still mad at me? What I did before was for your benefit. I was thinking about your well-being. Do you think being your mother I would ever think any bad for you?" The woman said, slowly moving her steps to get near her daughter. "Okay, don't be mad at your mother any longer. Come, I will buy you something good later".
The lady tried to coax her daughter but it only brought a loud disdainful chuckle out from Yi Lan.
"Buy me something good later? Haha … Ms Zhen, you had busied yourself so much into the conspiracies that you didn't get time to notice. I am all grown up to not get tricked in your childish play"
Zhen Qinrou was instantly on the tough spot with those words. Her brows wrinkled into furrow as her eyes helplessly stared at the front. Though it was not false, still she did not want to accept the truth. How could she when in all these years, the only one she cared for was her? Her daughter.
"Yi Lan …" She started but before she could complete, Feng Yi Lan cut her off.
"Please don't make your words so boring. Instead, come to the point. For what have you cornered me here?"
"Yi Lan, don't behave like this with me. I am already having enough of it. I am your mother and you can't deny that".
Yi Lan pressed a forced smile on her lips, before making her handbag proper over her hands, perfectly rejecting the look of vulnerability on the face of the woman. "Fine, since you don't have any useful things to say, I would just leave". She said, turning around to leave but just before she could take a step ahead, she paused hearing the reckless words of her mother from behind.
"Yi Lan, why are you still with that scandalous friend of yours? Didn't I already say that she is of no use to you and with her there by your side, there would also be raising questions on your personality?" Zhen Qinrou said, pouring out all her venoms in one go.
At her words, Feng Yi Lan's brows went stiff while her jaws clenched enough to let the gritting sound audible to the woman behind. "And didn't I already say that her name is Li Xue and you better not involve her in anything? I might not be cool enough to take it."
The woman almost shivered at that voice. She never knew her girl was capable of such piercing coldness. Though she has seen her worst mood, that was until she has not come across her current state. Indeed, she has the blood of Fengs.
"Y – Yi Lan, now you are even supporting her. What's so good in that woman to make you oppose your own mother" she stammered out, not knowing any longer if even her saying will get anything useful from her. She never knew that Yi Lan was so influenced by her friend. Though she knew that she has been searching for her all these years, she never got an idea that the obsession with friendship was so hard in her mind and heart.
What type of woman was Li Xue to make people around her become so possessive for her? Zhen Qinrou never cared to know before but now after encountering today's scenes, she would no longer be able to hold herself back.
Feng Yi Lan turned on her heels to glare at her mother. This was the first time of her doing that. Glaring at parents was not something a child should do, so she never tried it before. But her mother was truly crossing all her lines now.
Did she have to control all her liking now? Wasn't separating her from Qi Shuai enough already? Why was she targeting the only friend she had now?
"Do you think I have any reason to let you know the good in her? If you want one then let me give you one. The most intriguing thing that is keeping me attached to her is your dislike. Since you dislike her so much, I like her more. Everything and everyone that you will hate would become something for me to love. Is it clear enough now?"
Zhen Qinrou's nerves got ached at her baseless words and tone but she could not help it. There seemed no way for her to make any changes. "Yi Lan … you …" she started but once again was silenced. This time it was not by Yi Lan but the foreign presence around.
"LanLan, you are here? I was searching for you everywhere"
Yi Lan's thoughts paused for some time. That voice … She at once turned behind with a befuddled face. Not understanding the things happening around.
"What? You are still staring at me? Did you forget that you have come here with me or were you planning on ditching me halfway?" Qi Shuai added more, as he made all his way to reach the woman.
Feng Yi Lan just blinked her eyes, lost at the sudden sight of him. Maybe she was not expecting him here. But then suddenly, she let out a low yelp, almost jumping out of the blue when felt something snaking around her. Her eyes snapped to look at her own small waist, only to find it all comfortably wrapped in the man's arms.
She was about to rebuke him on his audacity but then she heard.
"You are with him. Didn't I say I would never accept him with you? What are you thinking Yi Lan?"
And those words alone changed everything.
