Chapter 129: You Owe Me!
"Mom." Ji Mo reached out to stop her. His black pupils stared at her. "You’re here for that orchid, right?"
"I don’t know what you’re talking about." Wu Tong’s eyes flashed with panic, it turned into anger. "I saw your favorite strawberry cake on the way here, so I bought it and wanted to give it to you. What about you? Are you going to malign your mother? You’re really my good son!"
"Mom!"
Facing Wu Tong, Ji Mo raised his voice for the first time. "Strawberry cake was the birthday cake I wanted when I was five years old, but I’m already seventeen years old now. I don’t like to eat it anymore."
When Ji Mo was young, he celebrated the birthday of his classmate in school. His classmate’s parents bought a two-layer strawberry cake and distributed it to every child in the class. Hence, he also wanted a piece of strawberry cake on his birthday. But instead of being satisfied, he was locked up in a dark room and locked up for an entire day.
His birthday had been spent in grief and regret. This woman, his so-called mother, had gone out to play cards and shop after locking the door.
"How, how would I know!" Wu Tong’s eyes drifted, and she raised her head proudly. "Why didn’t you tell me earlier that you didn’t like it? Did I force you to eat it?"
"Mom, it’s been so long. Are you done pretending?" Ji Mo’s eyes were filled with pain, his voice was choked with sobs. "Do you know that your acting skills are really bad? So bad that I need to lie to myself and tell myself that you really want to change. But I can’t lie to myself for a lifetime."
Wu Tong startled when she heard Ji Mo’s words.
