An Lanâs heart skipped a beat.
A few days ago, she had been scolded so viciously on the internet that she didnât even dare to go online. But it didnât matter, those people didnât understand her.
But her parents, who had raised her single-handedly, how could they think that of her.
She only felt a sharp pain in her throat, and tears almost burst out of her eyes.
However, pride wouldnât allow her to do that.
âDad, itâs fine if others think that about me, but donât you know what kind of person I am?â She said in a hoarse voice with difficulty.
âI used to, but now I canât understand you,â An Zhehui said with a bitter smile.
Ji Qian said angrily, âYou have a house and a car now. What are you not satisfied with? You like Nian Junting and cling to the past, but he doesnât like you. In the end, he married a woman younger than you. Look at you. Youâll be almost thirty next year, but youâre not married yet. When the neighbors ask, Iâm too embarrassed to say anything. No matter how rich you are, you canât compare to getting married and having children.â
âThatâs enough, Mom. Please keep your mouth shut. When did I cling to Nian Junting? Weâve always worked together,â An Lan was angered by these attacking words though she had to swallow her anger. âIâm your daughter. Why do you hurt me this way? I know that as a daughter, Iâm worthy of my parents. Iâve never let you eat and wear less than you...â
âAn Lan, what your mother said was harsh,â An Zhehui interrupted her. âBut we donât care about material things. We want a family in harmony. Dad and Mom have pension fund, and we donât lack your money. I just want you and your sister to be fine, but itâs obvious that I didnât educate you well. We as parents are responsible for your sisterâs plight today, but youâre too heartless as an older sister. Donât you feel any regret and guilt at all? Is it that scary to offend the Nian family? Iâm very disappointed in you, very disappointed.â
An Lan smiled bitterly.
Her parents would always stand at the highest point of morality and blame others.
Ji Qian continued to say angrily, âBesides, is it wrong to love someone? Your sister is wrong to love the wrong person. Before she went to university, she was quite nice and willing to help others. After all, wasnât Mo Liuxi responsible at all...â
âStop saying that.â An Lan really couldnât take it anymore. She took a deep breath and her eyes gradually became sharp.
She took a step closer to Ji Qian.
âWhat are you doing? Did I say anything wrong?â Ji Qian couldnât help but take a step back facing her gaze, but she still raised her neck high.
âDonât push all the blame on others.â An Lanâs tone gradually turned cold, âIf it werenât for your doting on An Nian over and over again, would she have become like this? She schemed to destroy other peopleâs relationships, and in the end, she never repented. If she didnât get the happiness, she also didnât let others get it.
Then she became a mistress. If you ask me, it was because of your doting that she became a gold-digger and unreasonable person. You didnât even have a bottom line. I donât know how you became parents.â
âShut up,â An Zhehui slapped her face angrily. âYou are an unfilial daughter.â
Xu Baohan rushed over and pulled An Lan behind him. He turned his head and saw five red marks on An Lanâs fair face. His gaze suddenly turned dark. âNo matter who you are to An Lan, you donât have the right to hit her.â
An Lan looked at the tall figure who had suddenly blocked her way. Why was he still here? Why was he always around whenever she had an argument with someone.
