Chapter 738: Surrender

When I returned to my long-lost hometown, I couldn’t help but feel emotional.

The housekeeper of Huanyuan, Sister Kong, hugged me and cried.

To them, I was resurrected from the dead. To me, it really felt like I had been reborn.

After settling everyone down, Mai Qi and I ran to the Jing family through the back door to see Auntie Lan and Auntie Bai Rui, whom we missed dearly.

They were still as beautiful as before, but Auntie Lan had lost some weight. I couldn’t help but feel a lump in my throat.

I ran over to hug Auntie Lan. Unexpectedly, she pushed me away.

She raised her eyebrows. She pointed at me and gnashed her teeth. “Who is this? I don’t know this heartless person! How many years has it been? She has left without saying anything, and she couldn’t even be found. She never took me, her mother-in-law, seriously!”

As Auntie Lan spoke, she felt so wronged that she covered her face and cried.

Jing Tian looked helpless, and Auntie Bai Rui was also at a loss.

I was stunned. Who could handle this situation?

Old Master Jing had doted on Auntie Lan all her life. He would give her anything she wanted.

In Old Master Jing’s mind, this world was ranked behind Auntie Lan. His sons and grandsons were all transparent in front of Auntie Lan.

Even Jing Tian was second compared to Auntie Lan.

Well, I’d be her daughter-in-law sooner or later, so I might as well get used to this.

I took off my high heels and sat down on the ground. Then, I covered my face and howled, “My life is so miserable! I lost my mother when I was young, and nobody loved me. It wasn’t easy for me to meet a mother-in-law who treated me as her own. But now, she despises me. I’ll be an unloved child again in the future…”

Sigh… Fake-crying is really tiring. But since I’ve started, I can’t stop now.

I didn’t need to look to know the expressions on Jing Tian and Auntie Bai Rui’s faces. They must be speechless. Mai Qi had already retreated far away. I also knew what she was thinking. She just didn’t want to admit that she knew me.

My voice drowned out Auntie Lan’s. The more I cried, the more I got into my role. I told her everything that had happened in the past few years with tears streaming down my face.

Auntie Lan stopped crying.

I opened one of my eyes quietly. She walked up to me with a shocked expression. “Is that true?”

I didn’t care about her and continued wailing, “My life is so miserable. So many people are fighting with me for my husband. I just want to ask my mother-in-law why she gave birth to such a wonderful man? She made so many women come knocking on my door to snatch him away. She makes me worry every day! Can’t she make him uglier?”

Auntie Lan laughed.

I seized her arm and said, “Auntie Lan, if you’re laughing, then you’re not angry at me anymore!”

Auntie Lan’s face darkened. “Who said that? I’m very angry! Very angry!”

“Auntie Lan, good Auntie Lan, Nanxing missed you so much. How about you beat me to vent your anger? I really miss you so much!”

“Really?” Auntie Lan could no longer hide her smile.

I nodded quickly. I used my sleeve to wipe my eyes and snot.

“Auntie Lan, I missed you so much!” I acted like a spoiled child.

“Humph! Will you disappear like this again next time?”

“No!”

I hugged Auntie Lan and refused to let go.

Jing Tian and Auntie Bai Rui were dumbfounded.

Perhaps no one in this world could handle Auntie Lan other than me.
