Chapter 37: Outrageously Wrong
After changing into uniform, Weiwei went to work first.
Zhou Yunjie hesitated in the locker room for a long time, holding the phone, and then called his mother.
Although she was kicked out of the house, today was different from usual and she should call her mother no matter what.
I called for a long time, but no one answered.
She called her home phone, but it rang for a long time and no one answered.
She thought, maybe her mother was still angry, otherwise she wouldn't ignore the phone.
If she hadn't been so bad at judging people, she wouldn't have been kicked out of the house because of Cheng Hongwei. She felt a surge of regret and grievance in her heart.
She used to live under the protection of her parents and never knew how dangerous the world was. She also underestimated human nature.
If you think about it carefully, what your parents say may not necessarily be wrong.
After a long silence, she called her mother again.
Maybe my mother was busy just now and didn't hear it.
Still no one answered.
She called her home phone again, but it rang for a long time and no one answered. Just before her patience ran out, a voice finally came from the receiver.
"Hello!"
It was her family’s nanny, Sister Ying.
"Sister Ying, where is my mother?"
The voices on the other end faded away, and there was a sound of low conversation. Then a familiar voice came from the microphone, "Have you thought it through?"
"Happy birthday, Mom."
"Is that what you're calling about?"
Mother Wen Jingyi's voice on the phone was cold. Zhou Yunjie didn't know what to say next. "Mom, I..."
"What? You're already this old, yet you still have such a hard time speaking! I'm telling you, Zhou Yunjie, don't even think about asking me to accept that little internet celebrity. When you've thought it through and have completely cut ties with him, then come home!"
After that, he asked impatiently, "Is there anything else? If not, hang up. I'm in a hurry to catch a plane to go to Hong Kong City to watch the show."
After another lecture like this, the regret in Zhou Yunjie's heart was replaced by stubbornness. She was silent for a moment, replied "I know," and hung up the phone.
Looking at the photo of herself and her mother on the screen, she sighed.
Perhaps the reason why I chose Cheng Hongwei so firmly was not because I liked and loved him so much, but just to escape the discipline and constraints of my parents.
I want to live my life as I please.
But now it seems that
This choice was extremely wrong.
…
On the other side, in the Zhou family's luxurious mansion halfway up the mountain, Wen Jingyi leaned palely on the sofa, staring at the phone in a daze.
Sister Ying brought the water and handed it over, "Madam, why don't you tell Yunjie the truth?"
Wen Jingyi drank a glass of water, and then she said, "What did you say? I've said enough over the years, but in the end, she still went against me!"
"But when has she ever suffered any hardship since she was a child? Are you relieved?"
"What can I do if I'm worried? She hasn't been back for the past few months without bowing her head?" Wen Jingyi sighed. "You have to experience the journey of life yourself to learn how to grow. She should go out into society and gain some experience. Only then will she realize how wonderful the past days were."
Sister Ying also sighed, "But about you and your husband..."
"She'll find out sooner or later, and it's better to find out later than sooner. At least when she matures, she'll be able to face this matter more calmly, and maybe she'll understand my good intentions."
I don’t know if it was to cater to the mood of the Zhou family’s master and servants, but dark clouds gathered in the distance. In the blink of an eye, half the sky was dark, and it looked like it was about to rain.
