I am Leng Yejin! 2
Tong Lu hung up angrily. Fortunately, she had never yearned for her father’s love. People gossipped about widows all the time, so she was reluctant to let more people know that she was staying with her brother-in-law. She did not want to cause trouble for herself as well as her brother-in-law.
“Dad, did big sister really say that?”
Tong Juan was so upset that tears kept rolling down her cheeks. She leaned weakly against Shi Yang’s chest. She knew that her older sister would not know any powerful people.
‘As it turns out, it’s nothing but a false scare. But how dare that bitch take this opportunity to exact revenge on me! I definitely won’t let her off the hook this easily!’
Tong Juan wiped the tears off her cheeks. “Dad, it’s all my fault. I accidentally scratched my big sister’s face. Why don’t you stop scolding her? It’s not easy for her to raise a child. I pity her very much.”
“If she had shown even half your obedience and maturity, I would not have gotten angry at her.” The more Tong Guohua looked at his younger daughter, the more he felt that she was a caring person compared to her older sister.
Tong Juan leaned against Shi Yang. “Things really aren’t easy for my older sister. I should have been more considerate of her. I mean, even though she spoke some harsh words to me, I should have just endured it. It’s my fault for not being able to control my temper.”
Shi Yang’s eyebrows were no longer furrowed. He reckoned that this was indeed the case. She was merely a volunteer, and as the coordinator of one of the speakers, it was normal for her to get invited into a car.
Leng Yejin’s eyebrows were furrowed as he sat in the living room, and his expression was dark. He had heard Tong Lu’s conversation with her father clearly. It was not because he intended to eavesdrop, though. His hearing and eyesight was a hundred times better than ordinary people, and he would have heard the conversation even if he were trying not to. After hearing the conversation, a sense of pity rose in his chest. He never had the privilege of a father’s love either, so he could understand how Tong Lu felt like right now.
After Tong Lu returned nonchalantly to the living room, he did not offer her any consolation, and he merely pretended that he had not heard anything. Often, words of comfort were useless. Many people did not like it when other people talked about the deepest pain in their heart, Leng Yejin included.
“Young Master Jin, are you really not going to take my suggestion into consideration?” Beside Leng Yejin, Ji Yiming was still babbling away, offering what he thought was good advice.
Leng Yejin shot him a cold glance. “You can f*ck off now.”
Tong Lu composed her emotions and carried Shanshan upstairs to wash up and sleep. She was really tired today, both physically and mentally, and she really needed a good rest to recuperate.
However, as she lay in bed, she could not stop her tears from flowing down her cheeks. Her tears kept flowing non-stop, but she covered her mouth so that she would not make any sound as she was worried that she would wake Shanshan, who was already asleep, up.
Leng Yejin’s room was only separated from her room by a wall. Leng Yejin lay in bed after he was done showering, and he was unable to fall asleep even though he wanted to. He could hear the soft, dreary sobs of the woman in the room next door, and he could not fall asleep because of this.
What was there to cry about? She merely did not have the privilege to grow up in a family where she was loved by her parents. It was almost the same for him!
Tong Lu did not know why she was crying either, but her tears were flowing down her cheeks like a broken dam. She was unable to stop crying no matter what. She thought about her mother who had passed away when she was young, Shi Yang who was the only man she had ever loved in life, the hardships she had endured for the past few years, and how her father had always practiced favoritism. All kinds of emotions were flooding into her mind, and she felt tremendously upset.
Leng Yejin rolled over in his bed. He could not take it anymore and covered his ears with his pillow. But it was no help. Women were sentimental creatures, and the moment they started crying, it would be impossible to stop them unless you knocked them unconscious.
Tong Lu was still sobbing even after a long time. Leng Yejin rose abruptly and opened the secret door between the two rooms.
Tong Lu rubbed her eyes in disbelief when she saw a man walking out of the mirror. No, to put it more appropriately, he had pushed the mirror and walked out from behind it. What? The mirror on the wall was a secret door?
