Chapter 257: Yao YuanRegrets It
How was Yao Yuan supposed to know that Yao Tangwould be able to acquire a Tian Run MallMembership Card? Not only that, but she even got a perfect score in the Math Olympiad. All her achievements... started to make him regret his decision.
But it wasn’t as if he could do anything else.
Shaking her head in disappointment, Old Madame Yao gritted her teeth. “It doesn’t matter whether or not she’s powerful. What she is or what she could’ve been depends on her and her only, and not on whether or not you should mend ties with her. She’s your biological daughter, isn’t she?”
Yao Yuan bowed his head in embarrassment.
Just as Qin Man was about to say something, she caught sight of Yao Ranstanding in the street. There was an unreadable expression painted across her face. Could she have heard what they were saying?
Her heart ached at the sight, and she immediately invited her into the car. With a frown, Qin Man glanced at her mother-in-law. “You don’t understand. You have no idea how many timesYao Tanghas disrespected us. If you saw what she had done, you’d agree on how we had handled things.”
With a sigh, she gripped her seat. “For now, we have to take his conversation for another day. Ranran still has to go to her review school. We can’t let Yao Tangdelay our daughter again. Hasn’t she already done enough?”
This time, Qin Man raised her voice. Didn’t the old lady understand that Yao Ranwas far more important than that country bumpkin?
“Your daughter? Are you blind?”
The old lady fixated her eyes on Qin Man, and the sad expression on her face had vanished. Replacing it was a dark and twisted look in her eyes—one that would make anyone shiver and run straight for the hills.
The younger woman’s heart thumped in anxiety. She couldn’t dare find it in herself to refute—her eyebrows furrowed over at the sight.
As soon as Yao Ran saw this, she hurriedly tugged her mother’s clothes. “Grandma, please don’t blame my Mom,” she said softly. “She’s just anxious, that’s all. I could simply walk to my review school. There’s really no need to trouble the entire family.”
Old Madame Yao couldn’t even be bothered to look at her. “As long as you know who you are, it will be fine.”
After that, Yao Ran couldn’t speak. A thought crossed her mind.
At first, she had assumed that her mother didn’t like Yao Tang because her results weren’t as good as hers. Not only that, but the woman had absolutely no grace, being born straight from the countryside.
However, Yao Tang continually ranked first. Not only that, but she got full marks at the recent competition.
She had absolutely everything in her hands, yet Qin Man still wouldn’t recognize her as her daughter.
Instead, Qin Man simply told her to study hard and surpass Yao Tangthe next time around.
Why was she doing this?
..
Yao Tang had just left the school gate when she saw Meng Yangand Qin Jing walking toward her with school bags strapped on their backs. They immediately waved at her in greeting with large smiles on their faces.
As Lin Xin was on duty today, she wasn’t able to join them.
“Just because exams are over doesn’t mean we should relax.” Meng Yang grinned, nodding at her. “Are you busy? Why don’t we head back to my place and study together? Qin Jing, what do you think?”
Qin Jing nodded. “Yes, I still have a couple of questions I still haven’t figured out yet.”
“Hm.” Yao Tang walked to a parking spot and knocked on one of the car’s doors. Suddenly, to their surprise, Cheng Yanstepped out of the car with a smile. He ruffled her hair.
“Have you eaten well? How are you doing?”
Meng Yang’s jaw dropped. When did his Sister Tang become this obedient? If people like Xiao Pangwould touch her on the head, she’d probably cut his hand off! But this...
Cheng Yan was really a god!
Yao Tang tried to avoid him, but in the end, it was to no avail. Cheng Yancontained to ruffle her hair affectionately.
