Chapter 410: Begging for Forgiveness
Yu Meiqi walked forward and helped Ling Yao tidy up the sheets and quilts, "I want to continue my studies." She certainly couldn't go back home, but she didn't want to give up her studies. Now she was still in high school, and she wanted to continue her studies and take the entrance exam to a university in Beijing in the future. But now she was penniless.
"Sister Ling Yao! I want to find a temporary job first, and go to school while working." Sister Ling Yao had already helped her a lot, and she wanted to solve the money for her studies with her own efforts.
Ling Yao nodded, "If your parents come to find you, are you willing to go home with them?" She had let someone tell Yu's parents about Yu Meiqi's stay in Beijing, but she didn't know if they would cherish this opportunity.
Yu Meiqi smiled bitterly, "They only have Liu Qingqing in their hearts, how could they come to see me?" She was completely disappointed with her parents.
"What if?"
Yu Meiqi thought about it carefully and shook her head, "I don't know." Although she was very disappointed with her parents, she still cared about them in her heart. If they really came to see her, she didn't know whether she should forgive them, because she had been hurt by them.
Ling Yao reached out and patted Yu Meiqi's shoulder, "Have a good sleep, don't think about anything, tomorrow will be better."
Yu Meiqi nodded, "Thank you, sister Ling Yao!"
Ling Yao walked out of the room and closed the door for Yu Meiqi. Yu
Meiqi lay down on the bed, but she tossed and turned, and couldn't fall asleep. She really couldn't understand why her parents who loved her would become like that. They clearly cared about her the most before, but why did everything change after Liu Qingqing came? Now they always looked at her with disappointment, as if she had done something unforgivable. She clearly did nothing, and she was innocent, so why did they only listen to Liu Qingqing's one-sided words?
Thinking of this, Yu Meiqi couldn't help crying anymore.
Yu Meiqi fell asleep in a daze until she was tired of crying. When
she woke up again, it was already noon the next day.
Yu Meiqi looked around and remembered that she had left home. She pulled the corners of her mouth bitterly, her nose was sore, and tears couldn't help but fall down.
"Yu Meiqi, don't cry... You have to be brave, you can do it alone..." Yu Meiqi encouraged herself, but she couldn't stop crying.
After a long time, she calmed down. She wiped her tears, sat up, opened the door, and went outside to wash up.
When she passed the living room, she smelled the fragrance of rice. Yu Meiqi walked to the kitchen in surprise and saw Ling Yao cooking in the kitchen. "Sister Ling Yao!"
Ling Yao turned her head and looked at Yu Meiqi with a smile, "You got up? The food is ready, you can eat after you wash up." She wanted to go back yesterday, but when she heard the crying coming from Yu Meiqi's room, she was worried that something might happen to Yu Meiqi, so she stayed.
"Okay." Yu Meiqi smiled and walked towards the bathroom.
After washing up, Yu Meiqi came to sit opposite Ling Yao. She picked up the chopsticks, hesitated for a moment, put them down again, and looked at Ling Yao, "Sister Ling Yao, do you have anything to do today?" "
Nothing, what's wrong?" Ling Yao looked at Yu Meiqi with a smile.
"I want to find a job, but I'm not very familiar with Beijing. Can you go with me?" Yu Meiqi was a little embarrassed. She still bothered Sister Ling Yao.
"There's no rush to find a job, you eat first." Ling Yao picked up a piece of fish and put it in Yu Meiqi's bowl. Just received the news that Yu's father and mother had already boarded the train to Beijing.
"Oh." Yu Meiqi nodded obediently and started eating. She must find a job, she can't always rely on Sister Ling Yao. Sister Ling Yao has helped her a lot.
After dinner, Ling Yao chatted with Yu Meiqi for a while and then left. She was going to the Lu family.
The sun shone in the small courtyard, warm and peaceful.
Yu Meiqi was watering the flowers alone in the yard.
She hummed a song while taking care of each flower carefully.
Suddenly, a knock on the door broke the tranquility.
Yu Meiqi walked forward and opened the door. She thought Ling Yao had forgotten something.
Seeing Mother Yu and Father Yu outside the door, Yu Meiqi was stunned, and the kettle in her hand fell to the ground with a "clang!".
She widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief. How could they appear here?
"Meiqi!" Yu's mother looked at Yu Meiqi excitedly, tears welling up in her eyes.
Yu's father stood silently by, staring at Yu Meiqi tightly, his eyes full of joy and guilt. Yu
Meiqi came to her senses, her eyes became cold.
She quickly closed the door, sat on the ground weakly, covered her face and cried. Seeing them again, her heart was like an overturned palette, with all kinds of feelings intertwined.
There was shock, because she didn't expect them to find this place, and there was also a hint of joy, after all, they were her parents, and they could come to her, which showed that they still cared about her a little, but more of it was hatred for them, hatred that they didn't want her for Liu Qingqing.
"Meiqi, open the door. We want to have a good chat with you."
"Meiqi! Mom and Dad know we were wrong. Can you please forgive us? Open the door and let us see you."
Yu's father and mother kept begging outside the door.
Yu Meiqi covered her ears with both hands. She didn't want to hear their voices. She was afraid that she would be soft-hearted.
"Meiqi, mom and dad really know that we were wrong. We have sent Liu Qingqing to the police station. We will never take her home again. We will never disbelieve you again."
"Meiqi, we know you have been wronged these years. Mom and dad will never let you be wronged again. We know you like small animals. We have asked someone to buy a cat and put it at home, waiting for you to come back."
Every word pierced into Meiqi's heart like a knife, making her tears flow more fiercely. At this time, her heart was full of contradictions and pain. She didn't know how to face it all. She couldn't forget the pain in the past, but she longed for the love and warmth of her parents.
"Meiqi, please open the door and let mom and dad see you."
Yu Meiqi wiped her tears vigorously. She sat quietly on the ground, in a daze. She needed time to calm down and re-examine the relationship with her parents.
After a long time, Yu Meiqi slowly stood up, turned around and opened the door.
When Yu's father and mother saw their daughter finally opened the door, they hugged her excitedly.
"Meiqi, I'm sorry..." Yu's mother said softly, her eyes full of guilt and regret.
"Meiqi, can you please forgive us? Can you come home with us?"
Yu Meiqi didn't say anything, but just shed tears silently.
