Chapter 2010: Two Sisters Fancy Two Brothers (5)
Madam Hong, mindful that her daughter is getting married tomorrow and fearing it might affect the wedding, quickly pulled Hong Ling out of the room. As she closed the door, she coaxed Hong Ping, "Pingping, you should rest early today. I will talk to your sister."
Hong Ling, dragged out, was angered by these words. She freed herself from Madam Hong’s grip and stormed into the room next door. Madam Hong, seeing this, didn’t bother to continue coaxing Hong Ping and hurriedly followed Hong Ling inside.
As soon as Hong Ling entered, she threw herself onto the bed, refusing to look at Madam Hong.
Madam Hong, helpless, walked over to her, sat by the bedside, and said, "Lingling, your sister is getting married tomorrow. You should understand and stop making a fuss, do you understand?"
Hong Ling turned over and glared with reddened eyes, angrily saying, "How am I making a fuss? I just like him! Mom, we’re in the modern age now. How can you still be like an old relic, talking about sisters not marrying brothers? That’s all feudal nonsense!"
She sat up from the bed, looking at Madam Hong accusingly, "Mom, do you only love my sister? Don’t you care about me at all?"
"Nonsense, can’t you see who I care about?! " Madam Hong snapped, giving her daughter’s hand a light smack, her heart softening again at the sight of her pretty daughter. Gently coaxing, she said, "Lingling, be good, listen, okay? I’ll buy you the phone you’ve been wanting, didn’t you always want..."
"I don’t want, I don’t want!" Hong Ling shouted, "I just like him, I just want to marry him, Mom, I really like him, I’ve never liked anyone this much before. The first time I saw him, I knew I should marry him, Mom..."
Hong Ling finally held onto Madam Hong’s waist, lowly pleading.
Seeing Hong Ling refusing even the phone, incessantly claiming her affection, Madam Hong finally realized the seriousness of the situation. She bowed her head and asked, "Hong Ling, are you serious?"
