Chapter 776 -776: Just pretend you don’t have a mother like me…_1
“We know everything we’re supposed to, we have both eyewitness testimony and physical evidence. With you as a witness, it won’t be difficult to expose Zhong Haoran’s real identity. Let’s go somewhere else to talk.”
Ye Qilan led the way, hand in hand with Su Hongxing.
Su Hongxing followed with her head down, remaining quiet like an invisible person until they had gotten into the car and arrived at their destination.
She finally got her wish, to see Jiang Chengyun again, but she wasn’t happy at all.
If they hadn’t met, perhaps she could still fantasize that Jiang Chengyun loved her, or that seeing her would make Jiang Chengyun cry.
But as it turns out, she was the only one who cared, the only one who couldn’t let go.
She should’ve realized this when Jiang Chengyun abandoned her to remarry all those years ago. Why was she still upset over a fact she already knew?
Su Hongxing stared blankly ahead, not really hearing Ye Qilan’s conversation with Jiang Chengyun.
An hour later, after Ye Qilan and Jiang Chengyun had finished their chat, they both looked at Su Hongxing who was still sitting there in a daze.
“Miss Jiang, don’t you have anything to say to Amou?” Ye Qilan couldn’t help but ask.
He had observed Su Hongxing’s anxiety and heard her say how much she had despised Jiang Chengyun in the past.
But Jiang Chengyun’s calm demeanor was truly hurtful.
“I’m happy that Amou has grown into a beautiful woman, and that she has you, such a remarkable man, to look after her. I need to leave now. Otherwise, Zhong Haoran will turn this city upside down to find me, and I don’t want him to see you. What we need to do now is catch him off guard!” With those words, Jiang Chengyun stood and prepared to leave.
Ye Qilan quickly took two steps towards her: “Amou misses you…”
“I don’t miss her.” Su Hongxing interrupted him.
But it was the truth. She missed the Jiang Chengyun from her childhood, who loved and spoiled her, not this unfamiliar, well-to-do Miss Jiang.
“Amou, you better pretend you never had a mother like me.” After saying that, Jiang Chengyun walked away briskly.
Su Hongxing remained rooted to the spot, watching Jiang Chengyun walk away, like she was turned to stone.
She should’ve believed a long time ago that Jiang Chengyun was the most heartless person in the world.
Ye Qilan pulled Su Hongxing into his arms: “Amou, you still have me. I will always be with you, wherever we are. Not only me, but Little Pudding too, we will all protect you for the rest of our lives. Forget about all those people who aren’t worth your pain and sorrow.”
It is better off without a mother like Jiang Chengyun. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Su Hongxing stared blankly ahead: “I may not remember much from my childhood, but I remember my grandma telling me that my nickname, Amou, was given to me by Jiang Chengyun.”
Everyone claims that she has beautiful eyes, but in fact, very few people know the nickname Amou.
But there is one thing she remembers vividly.
When she was a child, Jiang Chengyun would hold her and gently kiss her eyes, saying tenderly: “Amou, Mom’s little darling, you have to be a good girl…”
Many years later, even if Jiang Chengyun called her that way, she could no longer feel the warmth that was once there.
Ye Qilan’s heart clenched as he quietly held her: “Once things are settled here, we’ll go home. Little Pudding is waiting for us there, she is the one we love most.”
He wants to handle these matters as soon as possible, bring Su Hongxing home, and leave this heart-wrenching place.
