Chapter 93 - The So-Called Family
Chapter 93: The So-Called Family
Huo You muttered to herself, not realizing that Mrs. Huo’s gaze was turning colder and colder. She only felt that her heart was empty as if a very important part had been cut off.
The truth was, Huo You had always known that, compared to her mother, Ding Rong was the one who had played the role of a proper mother in both her lifetimes. In the memories of her two lifetimes combined, Ding Rong had been the only one who had given Huo You unreserved love and warmth. Ding Rong’s figure had appeared in almost all the warming scenes she had been through…
Only at this moment did Huo You dare to admit that she had always treated Ding Rong as her real mother. There hadn’t been a day when she hadn’t missed the time she spent with Ding Rong during her childhood.
In the past, Huo You used to think that what she wanted was glory and splendor, that she wanted power and wealth. She had always thought that her goals were clear enough and that she would never be stopped by fragile, illusory emotions.
Only now did Huo You realize that she wasn’t as carefree as she had thought. The moment she found out that she had really lost her mother, she felt extremely painful and miserable…
Huo You was immersed in the palpitations and sadness of that moment, so she didn’t realize that Mrs. Huo’s gaze was turning colder and colder. It was filled with judgment and anger.
Mrs. Huo’s voice was filled with coldness as she spoke up, “Huo You, I remember that I had warned you before not to treat that woman as your mother anymore.”
Huo You only came back to her senses when she heard her mother’s icy words. Her face turned pale when she realized what she had just said.
She explained incoherently, “Mom, I was just too shocked and said it out of anxiety… Mom, you have to believe me…”
Huo You subconsciously threw herself beside Mrs. Huo, wanting to reach out to grab her sleeve and cover up the mistake she had made. However, Mrs. Huo dodged her touch, then raised her arm and slapped Huo You’s face.
After a crisp slap, the entire small living room was silent for a moment. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Huo You covered the side of her face as her thoughts raced. She thought of one reason after another, but none of them could explain why she still treated Ding Rong as her mother…
In the end, Huo You only muttered, “Mom, I’ve always placed your teachings in my heart. I really understand my identity and understand that I no longer have anything to do with the Ding Family anymore. I haven’t contacted them all this while. Earlier, I just, just…”
Both Mr. and Mrs. Huo looked at Huo You coldly. In their eyes, Huo You was like a clown who was anxiously trying to explain herself. They could see through Huo You’s thoughts at a glance, but they refused to give their biological daughter a way out.
When the atmosphere gradually became stagnant and anxious, Huo Feng opened his mouth to break the silence.
“Dad, Mom, don’t make things difficult for Huo You. Huo You has lived with Auntie Ding for more than ten years. How can the mother-daughter relationship between them disappear just like that? If Huo You can remain calm and indifferent when she hears that Auntie Ding was killed, it only means that she’s a cold-blooded person. Are you really willing to have a daughter like that?”
Unlike their cold attitude when facing Huo You, Mr. and Mrs. Huo were very tolerant and reasonable when facing Huo Feng.
Mr. Huo’s expression eased up as he nodded and said to Huo Feng, “You’re right. How could your mother and I not know this principle? Earlier, your mother was just a little sad. After all, she had always had high hopes for your sister. After your sister returned to our family, she had been carefully raising this daughter. However, your sister didn’t treat your mother as her real mother nor us as her real family?”
Mrs. Huo stroked her chest weakly like a mother who had her feelings hurt by her daughter. She was sad and melancholic as she heaved a long sigh.
“Your father understands me the best. Huo You, ever since you returned to the Huo Family, we’ve always agreed to whatever you asked. You didn’t want to see Tiantian, so we let her return to the Ding Family despite the years we spent raising her. We didn’t say anything even though you kept finding trouble for Tiantian in school…”
Mrs. Huo wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, her voice sounding a little choked up. “Your father even went to negotiate with Tiantian for you, wanting her to take the initiative to give up on being a student at Qingli High School. I think your father and I have given up enough for you, but I didn’t expect that in your heart, you still treat that woman with the surname Ding as your mother. Mom was really too sad just now…”
It was clearly also Mr. and Mrs. Huo’s idea to let Huo Tian leave Qingli High School. They had found their biological daughter, so how could they be willing to let Huo Tian, who was not a presentable adopted daughter, continue to stay in Qingli High School, which was filled with children from elite families?
However, Huo You’s first reaction wasn’t to push the blame away. She subconsciously looked at Huo Feng…
