Chapter 1015 - 1057: Why Should I?
Even though it was over the phone, Ling Yueyue could still clearly hear the person on the other side screaming in her hometown dialect with a sharp voice, "I’m telling you, if you don’t give me an explanation today, or if you don’t give us some compensation, I’ll report your elder sister to the police station! I’m telling you, my son was fine, and for no reason, your elder sister broke his nose. What about my son’s future? Today, either give me the money, fix my son, or we go to the police!"
"Wah wah...!" Then came a burst of pitiful crying.
Listening to the voice on the phone, Ling Yueyue felt a throbbing pain in her temples!
At this time, Ling’s father’s voice came through the phone again, "Yueyue, did you hear that? They’re not leaving the house unless we compensate them, otherwise elder sister will go to jail! She’s still so young, about to graduate high school, she has to go to college, she has a beautiful life ahead, you can’t just let her go to jail like that!"
Ling Yueyue gritted her teeth and asked, "How much do they want?"
Hearing Ling Yueyue’s words, Ling’s father thought she agreed and hurriedly said, "One hundred thousand, just one hundred thousand will be enough! They say if we give them one hundred thousand, they’ll forget about it and not put elder sister in jail!"
"Ha...!" Ling Yueyue let out a cold laugh and continued, "If I remember correctly, two years ago, didn’t you sell me to a cripple for one hundred thousand? That money has always been in your hands! Just take that one hundred thousand and pay them!"
"No... that money...!" Ling’s father accidentally slipped and was about to continue when Ling’s mother snatched the phone and started scolding Ling Yueyue, "Ling Yueyue, you stinking girl, I’m telling you, if you don’t give us one hundred thousand today to save your elder sister, then don’t call us mom and dad anymore, and this house is not your home! For the rest of my life, I’ll pretend I never gave birth to a daughter like you! Go your own way, we’ll go ours!"
Hearing Ling’s mother’s words, Ling Yueyue only felt it was funny, "Sure! I can’t wait! You’d better publish it in the newspapers and sever family ties with me! Without you dragging me down, I’ll live a better life!"
"Ungrateful girl, you heartless creature, we raised you to this age, and I carried you for ten months, and today you say such heartless words, was your conscience eaten by a dog? You ungrateful thing! If I had known you’d turn out like this, I should have strangled you when you were born! Wah wah...!" Saying this, she started crying fakely, "Wah wah... heartless thing, if I had known, I’d rather have raised a dog than you, at least a dog knows how to guard the house and show gratitude! Wah wah... you ungrateful thing!"
"I’m ungrateful? Yes, you carried me, gave birth to me, I borrowed your stomach for ten months! But besides that, I haven’t seen any kindness from you! Since I was born, you threw me to aunt to raise, when did you care about me, when did you truly love me! After aunt went abroad, I raised myself! I didn’t just support myself, I had to fill your bottomless pit! Ask yourself, from high school, how much money I’ve given you in total? From high school to the first year of university, at least ten thousand yuan a year! Do you know that I saved that money by scrimping and saving? Do you know what I ate every day? At eighteen, you sold me for one hundred thousand! This year, I gave you another twenty-six thousand! Adding it up, I’ve given you at least two hundred thousand! Even if I borrowed your stomach for ten months, at two thousand a month in rent, I’ve paid it all back! I’m telling you, elder sister injuring someone is her own business, it has nothing to do with me; she’s already seventeen, she should be responsible for her actions! I’m not obligated to clean up her mess! If I knew I’d end up like this, I’d rather you had strangled me at birth! Then I wouldn’t be exploited all my life, never having freedom!" Ling Yueyue vented, letting out all the repressing pain and grievances of the years!
Back then, she started working and earning money before she was seventeen, sending them living money every month!
And elder sister? Now seventeen and still so immature, not only not helping the family, but also causing trouble everywhere! Now that something’s gone wrong, they want her to clean up her mess and cover for her!
Why, why must she bear all the pain and hardship, while they get all the benefits!
A hundred thousand, saying a hundred thousand just like that, do they really think she’s an ATM, withdrawing whatever they want! Have they ever thought about whether she has the ability!
Where is she supposed to get such a large amount of money?
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and her eyes involuntarily turned red.
Ling Yueyue had said too much in one breath, and Ling’s mother seemed unable to fully digest it, pausing for a few seconds before reacting, instantly flaring up, "You ingrate, do you know what you’re saying? You think two thousand a month for ten months is enough for staying in my stomach? Although you didn’t grow up with us, I still sent your aunt living expenses every month, that money came from me too! Now you say we don’t care about you; if we didn’t care, we would have just left you to starve! I’m telling you, you will pay that one hundred thousand for elder sister, no matter how, by selling yourself, singing, begging, you must get it together, or else...!"
Before Ling’s mother could finish, Ling Yueyue hung up abruptly!
If she listened any longer, she would surely smash the phone in anger!
Selling herself, singing, begging to pay for elder sister, is this what they call care?
Do they even know her hand was injured today?
Whenever they call, they never care about her! Not even a simple question like, have you eaten yet! It’s always about money, money, money! If she gives them another penny, then she doesn’t deserve to be called Ling Yueyue!
Feeling wronged, tears welled up and fell uncontrollably from her eyes.
At this moment, the phone that had just been hung up rang again! Ling Yueyue glanced at the caller ID and immediately turned off her phone!
She couldn’t take it anymore, she really couldn’t, she was on the verge of breaking down! With parents like this, she truly wished she were dead!
