A pleasingly plump secretary vs. a cold, abstinent boss.
This is a story where the seemingly dominant person in control of the entire situation ultimately gets pulled down from their pedestal...
Chapter 131 They Only Love Themselves
Gao Li was puzzled when he heard this. "So, Sister Yu Wei and the murderer should have had a good relationship. Why did the murderer kill her?"
Upon hearing this, my aunt sighed again, and this sigh was full of regret.
"If a person wants to live a good life, he or she can either be a completely honest person or a completely bad person. Being stuck in the middle is the most uncomfortable. Being good is not good enough, and being bad is not bad enough."
"Yu Wei is a very smart child. She knows exactly what path she wants to take and what kind of life she wants to lead in the future. Even though she likes the murderer, she never thought of ruining her future because of him."
"Two days before Yu Wei's accident, the two had an argument because Yu Wei told the murderer that she wanted to apply to a university in another province. The murderer disagreed, thinking it was too far away, and told Yu Wei to apply to a university in this city."
"Yu Wei disagreed. The university she wanted to apply to was the one she had always dreamed of attending since she was a child, and she was determined to go. The two of them argued over this, and Yu Wei didn't contact the murderer for several days."
"The murderer was anxious, so he went to look for Yu Wei at the place where the incident happened, and happened to run into Yu Wei who was out buying food."
"Yu Wei was worried that someone she knew might see her with the murderer, so she called him away and they went to the bridge where they often met."
"There, the two of them had another heated argument. The murderer said Yu Wei simply looked down on him and despised him for being a gangster. She was only with him to experience the thrill of rebelling against her parents."
"Yu Wei was also angry at the time, and quickly responded to what was said. She also said a lot of unpleasant things and broke up with the murderer."
"The murderer was enraged and wanted to rape Yu Wei so that he could have the matter settled. In the end, because Yu Wei's resistance was too fierce, the murderer became even more angry. His men lost control of their strength and killed Yu Wei."
"After the incident, the murderer ran away out of fear. He was not apprehended until Yu Wei's body was discovered and a case was opened for investigation."
After the aunt finished speaking, she looked at Yu Huan and said, "For so many years, we have never known the inside story. We all thought that Yu Wei was killed simply because she went out alone and was targeted by the murderer. Except for your parents and the police at the time, no one knew the truth."
"Over the years, your parents have taken out all their resentment on you. Everyone has tried to persuade them, tried to enlighten them, but nothing worked. Finally, I don't know how to persuade them anymore. After all, every family has its own problems."
"Ever since I found out the truth, I've been looking for an opportunity to tell you. This is clearly your parents' fault. If they hadn't put so much pressure on Yu Wei, how could such a clear-headed and intelligent child like Yu Wei follow someone else just because of a few barbecues? She must have been pushed to her limit to be deceived by even a little temptation."
"But instead of reflecting on their own problems, they blame everything on you and use you as a punching bag."
"I really am!" My aunt grew angrier and pounded the sofa. "How can there be such parents in this world? I just can't stand it!"
"Xiao Huan, I'm telling you all this today because I want to tell you that you should break up with your parents as soon as possible. Don't let them bully you anymore, and don't be sad because of them. Don't even bother collecting their bodies when you're old. Parents like that really deserve to die!"
Gao Li was also very angry and immediately agreed, "Yes! I used to think they were mentally ill. Even if Sister Yu Wei didn't know the murderer, it had nothing to do with you. You were only ten years old at the time. Why should they blame you for the mistake? Now it seems that they really are sick. It's disgusting!"
Compared to the anger of the mother and daughter, Yu Huan was very calm.
She wasn't sad, but she was a little sad. After all, what child wouldn't be sad when she found out that her parents didn't love her?
Even though she had no expectations of them, she kept finding excuses for her parents not loving her, so that her lack of love would seem reasonable.
Only now did she realize that his parents didn't just not love her.
"I originally thought that they just didn't love me. They just loved my sister too much, which is why they held such a deep grudge against her death, so deep that they had to find someone to shoulder their resentment."
"But I didn't expect that they didn't actually love my sister either. They only loved themselves."
"My sister and I are not their children. We are just tools. My sister is a tool they use to achieve wealth, and I am just a tool for them to vent their anger."
When my aunt heard this, her heart ached. She reached out and hugged Yu Huan, "Okay, it's all in the past. Now that you've grown up and have the ability, don't let yourself be influenced by those unworthy people."
"Think about it from another perspective. You should be happy and completely give up on them so that you won't have any illusions about them anymore."
Yu Huan buried himself in his aunt's arms, responded softly, put his arms around her, and whispered softly.
"Aunt, why aren't you my mother?"
When my aunt heard this, she couldn't hold back her tears. She patted her head and choked up, "I'm still your mother. I've always loved you."
Gao Li also spoke up: "Then you can be my mother's daughter. She likes you more than she likes me anyway."
Yu Huan buried himself in his aunt's arms, and a smile appeared in his eyes because of what the two of them said.
The family affection she had longed for was finally obtained at this moment.
Although it didn't come from a close relative, it was enough to warm her.
That night, my aunt was afraid that Yu Huan would still be sad, so she stayed to accompany him. The three of them lay on the same bed, talking about Yu Huan and Gao Li's childhood. The atmosphere was very cheerful.
Finally, Yu Huan held his aunt's hand and fell asleep with a smile.
The next morning, Yu Huan woke to the sound of a flurry of conversation. Gao Li's apartment was a one-bedroom, one-living room apartment with poor sound insulation, so the polite conversation could be heard clearly in the bedroom.
It was my aunt's voice, and she seemed to be talking to someone on the phone.
"Xiao Huan is living with Gao Li now. Let her stay by herself for a while and don't come looking for her."
"Why don't you listen to me? You coming here now won't solve any problems except a quarrel."
"She doesn't want to go back. Are you two going to tie her up and take her back?"
"What? I corrupted her? Haha, you guys are really good at turning the tables. Then go to the police and say that I corrupted your daughter. Let's see if the police will do anything about it."
Yu Huan knew who his aunt was talking to on the phone, so he got up from the bed and walked out of the bedroom.
When my aunt saw Yu Huan, she seemed to be worried that what she heard would affect her mood, so she immediately covered her phone and motioned her to go into the bedroom.
Yu Huan shook his head and reached out to his aunt.
"Give it to me, I'll tell them."
