Chapter 12 - I Should Have Listened To You (2)
Xi Qian was planning to buy a slice to bring to Su Xiaofei for her visit, however, she met Lu Qingfeng at the same bakery. The two were stuck in a conundrum as to who should buy Su Xiaofei's favorite dessert.
Lu Qingfeng ignored Xi Qian's fierce glare and passed the box of cake to Aunty Liu.
"Aunty Liu, make sure to ask the doctor first if Sister Xiaofei could eat it. I'm afraid that it will upset her stomach if she ate all the cake in one sitting." He told the old woman.
Aunty Liu smiled at that, her previous worries dispelled upon seeing that her young miss would be fine so long as Lu Qingfeng and Xi Qian were on her side.
Su Xiaofei huffed, feigning her irritation towards Lu Qingfeng.
"You are wasting your time. The doctor is allowing me to go home tomorrow." She then fell silent.
In her past life, when she woke up in this hospital room, she immediately had a heated argument with Mo Yuchen and he stormed out, leaving her in a crying mess. When she was discharged from the hospital, she chose to stay at her apartment near the school she was attending, not knowing that Ye Mingyu and her mother would arrive in her mother's home, causing a scene.
If she only had come home and accompanied her mother, Yun Qingrong wouldn't easily yield to Ye Xing's request for the Su family to take Ye Mingyu in. It was the start of her misfortune.
Other people said that Ye Mingyu had only claimed her rightful place and deemed her as the modern Cinderella, and she, Su Xiaofei was the vicious younger sister who wasn't able to tolerate her sister's presence, fought and snatched everything Ye Mingyu had, not knowing that it was the opposite of the truth.
"Feifei, are you alright? You look pale." She heard Xi Qian asked, which made Lu Qingfeng and Aunty Liu give her an inquisitive look.
Su Xiaofei forced a smile. They didn't need to know.
"I'm fine. I just didn't expect Mo Yuchen would come and see me today."
"If you don't want to see him, just say so." Lu Qingfeng said. "It's not like he wanted to see you anyway, so the feeling is now mutual."
"What do you mean the feeling is now mutual, Little Feng?"
All of them turned their heads only to see Yun Qingrong standing at the door with a confused expression on her face.
"Feifei, did something happen?"
Seeing her alive and well, Su Xiaofei didn't realize that her eyes had turned misty at once, her tears started to stream uncontrollably down her beautiful face, shocking everyone around her.
"Xiao Fei!" Yun Qingrong rushed to her daughter's side as Xi Qian gave way for the older woman to pass. She stood up and allowed Yun Qingrong to placate Su Xiaofei.
Su Xiaofei buried herself in her mother's embrace and continued to weep helplessly. When she thought about the past, the cold treatment she had given her mother and how Yun Qingrong died, Su Xiaofei felt deep regret and shame.
This woman, who took her in, loved her deeply as if she was her own child. How can Su Xiaofei not feel guilty for the things she had done to Yun Qingrong?
Unlike her brothers who eventually joined the army, as the only daughter of the Yun family, Yun Qingrong started her own business, Bluemedia, a small entertainment company in Guangshang. Since she and her mother resided in Qiying City, which was located at the upper part of the metropolitan, Yun Qingrong had to leave early for work as Guangshuang was at least two hours away from their home.
Yun Qingrong was a workaholic. Although she was beautiful, she had no interest in dating and ignored some of the advances and proposals she received in the past from her suitors. It was only when she was around thirty-one year old did she accepted Su Haoran's proposal for marriage, after he incessantly chased after her for over three years.
However, who would have suspected that Su Haoran was lying to her? At that time, Su Haoran had already been living with Ye Xing, his long time girlfriend.
Between his gentle and docile long time girlfriend and rich female superior, Su Haoran obviously chose the latter in order for him to climb up the society ladder. What's more, being related to the Yun family who had old money and influence, how can Ye Xing be compared to Yun Qingrong?
The only hindsight was at the time Su Haoran married Yun Qingrong, he had no idea that Ye Xing was three months pregnant and had given birth to Ye Mingyu in a few months. Ye Xing never sought Su Haoran for child support, however, because she was diagnosed with the early stage of cancer, she went to see him only to be confronted by Yun Qingrong in the end.
"Feifei? Why are you crying?" Yun Qingrong asked Su Xiaofei. "Tell Mama what upset you." She said in a familiar gentle voice, making Su Xiaofei cry even harder.
"Mama, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry." She cried out between her sobs. "I'll listen to you now, so please don't leave me again, okay? I won't oppose you from now on, so please don't be mad at me anymore."
Yun Qingrong glanced at Aunty Liu in confusion. "What happened?"
The old woman explained that the moment Su Xiaofei woke up, Mo Yuchen paid a visit and the two exchanged some words. She even told Yun Qingrong of her young miss intention to break her ties with Mo Yuchen.
Yun Qingrong had been worried sick about her daughter for the past three days.. When she heard that Su Xiaofei passed out and was rushed to the hospital for a possible alcohol intoxication, fear gripped her heart. Su Xiaofei was like a pearl in her hand, so how could she bear to see her daughter suffer?
