Chapter 7 Just Wait, He will Kneel and Beg
- Such a pair of deep-set eyes!
- But even though he had attractive eyes, this was not the moment to be distracted by them.
- “Sell me the bangle, I’ll pay you in installments, how does that sound?” An Shengxia took two large breaths and forced a smile.
- “How disgusting, you’re acting pitiful towards me!”
- Quan Yao smoothly brushed An Shengxia’s arm away.
- Shit! He actually brushed me off.
- With her back against the cold wall, An Shengxia was in such pain. They really didn’t see eye to eye on anything.
- “I can’t believe you are willing to spend 5 million for An Rumo. Fine, I guess money talks!”
- After a pause, An Shengxia continued disdainfully, “However, I’d like to gift you with these words: ‘Dumbass!’”
- Only a silver-spooned dumbass would be willing to spend a fortune just to win a girl’s smile.
- An Shengxia was steaming. As she turning to leave, she felt the someone pulling on the collar of her shirt.
- “How dare you scold me?”
- The tension in the air reminded her that he was not someone she should provoke.
- “Nope. I was scolding a dumbass, are you a dumbass?”
- With wide innocent eyes, An Shengxia emphasized the word ‘dumbass’.
- “Go to hell!” Quan Yao eyes were filled with apathy.
- It has been a while since he has met such a reckless woman!
- “What… What are you planning to do to me?”
- Did he just laugh? An Shengxia had a bad feeling about it.
- “Throw her out! Remember, throw!”
- As he gave the order, An Shengxia was grabbed and lifted up.
- “Bang!”
- “You assholes! Who gave you the right to throw me out!”
- She was thrown heavily against the ground. An Shengxia felt like her bones were about to break, any small movement brought her pain.
- Just you wait!
- A day will come when she will take back her mother’s possessions.
- Just wait, she will have this silver-spooned dumbass kneel and beg!
- …
- Her knees were grazed, her clothes were dirty, she twisted her ankle. An Shengxia limped her way back to her rented home and applied ointment to her injuries.
- However, she was unable to reach her back no matter how she tried. It hurt so badly that her tears would not stop.
- It was the same hopelessness she felt five years ago when she was giving birth alone.
- An Shengxia blew her nose and set the ointment aside. When she lifted her head, she saw her two sons.
- “Why are you crying? That’s so ugly!” An Dabai crossed his arms and sneered.
- “I’m ugly? No one told you to look!” An Shengxia looked at this face, so similar to the one that was bullying her. It just made her angrier.
- “Were you only taught to cry? Why didn’t you fight back?” An Xiaobai said as he enjoyed his potato chips.
- “But I can’t beat him, what other choice do I have? Can’t I just cry?” An Shengxia pulled on her blanket, upset and exasperated, “Ungrateful little shits, if I knew the both of you were going to be like this, I would not have given birth to you!”
- “Mommy, you were the one who broke into my coin bank without telling me! That was the first present you gave me!” An Xiaobai left his chips behind and ran off upset.
- An Shengxia shot up from her bed.
- She had forgotten, the first present she had given An Xiaobai was the piggy bank.
- She had been in a hurry to leave for the auction and the piggy bank was quite heavy when she lifted it, so she broke it and took what was in it.
- She did not think that the usually conscienceless An Xiaobai would get this upset.
- Was he upset with her for taking the money or that she had broken the only gift she had given him?
- Should she apologize to her son? An Shengxia could not decide.
- “Mommy, you also took the money that I had under my pillow.” An Dabai said with conviction. “I wanted to report you to the police but when I saw you crying, I decided to forgive you.”
- “Thank you, my dear son!” She was a failure of a mother, even her own son had wanted to report her to the police!
- “However, if I report you, maybe daddy will recognize you and bring me and Xiaobai home.” An Dabai hesitated.
- “An Dabai, just because I have not scolded you, do you think I won’t?” Preposterous! An Shengxia was shaking with anger.
- “If you keep talking rubbish, I’m not going to apply the ointment for you!” An Dabai was clutching the jar of ointment in his small hand and gently rubbing it into her skin. While he had many more questions in mind, he remained silent.
- “Dabai, tell mommy, why are you carefully helping me with the ointment?”
- While she was touched, she was also cautious. An Shengxia never thought that An Dabai would be this kind, as things were never this simple with him…
