Seeing Gao Yang's look and his command, Caramel couldn't help but laugh. Did he really think that he would listen to him in everything as before?
That person said that the place she went to had a different flow rate than the human world, which means that she actually stayed there for a year.
What is that place? It's the City of Oblivion, also known as the City of Obsession, where the flow is incredibly fast. Those who enter are all burdened by obsessions, seeking answers. If they find the answers, they leave; if they don't, they never leave.
Caramel came out; her obsession wasn't about exalting herself, but about herself.
Her obsession was with that insecure self, that cowardly self she wanted to get rid of, the one who couldn't do anything. Caramel didn't let go; she picked it up again, rediscovered that former self, and became a new self.
"Gao Yang, I've made myself perfectly clear. We're breaking up. What? Didn't you tell your aunt?"
Caramel took a document out of her bag and placed it in front of Gao's mother.
"Auntie, look at this. This is the bill Gao Yang made me keep over the years, which represents our expenses for four years. Please check if it's correct. He said that since we're breaking up, he wants me to pay him back."
Of course, we won't discuss whether doing this is tasteless or not, but I personally think it's good to be clear about it.
I worked as his nanny for free for several years, so I won't ask him for my wages. After all, I've been happy all these years, and I won't treat our relationship like a transaction after we break up. Just consider me blind.
Mrs. Gao opened the door and saw that inside were just a few scallions with prices listed. She looked at Gao Yang in surprise. "My son, this is too much..."
"Tangtang, what are you doing? I only made you write these things down to save money. I know you're a little angry that I haven't contacted you recently, but I've been very busy. You have to understand me. I need to work hard so that we can have a better life after we get married, right?"
He stood up and tried to grab Caramel's hand, but Mo Yan grabbed it tightly, applying slight pressure. "You think you can bully my daughter in front of me? Don't you have ears? She said she wants to break up."
The pain in his hand reminded him that it was all real, and Caramel wanted to break up with him.
That won't do! He refuses, absolutely refuses!
"Auntie, Tangtang is just a little angry, so please..."
Upon hearing this, Mo Yan immediately retorted, her gaze towards him becoming even more disdainful.
"Pah, get the hell out of here! Who gave you the confidence to think you're so charming? My daughter is sick, and you haven't come to see her all day. Now you're here talking about marriage? What the hell?"
"Why are you swearing at me?" Mrs. Gao said, displeased. "Your daughter doesn't go to work every day; she just stays at home playing."
"Play?" Mo Yan grabbed the file and slammed it in front of the two of them. "Open your dog eyes and look carefully. Is this playing?"
What's the point of her keeping track of all these accounts? Don't tell me she bought these vegetables and let them mold. Cooking, washing clothes, doing housework—she's busy all day long. You're telling me this is a joke? You even go to the hospital every now and then, and my daughter has to be your caregiver. If you're so capable, tell me you didn't, and I'll send you a video in a heartbeat.
It hurts here one minute and there the next, why haven't you ascended to heaven yet?
When you treat my daughter like a nanny, don't you feel like she's not working? You feel comfortable and think she's not working, but where's your shame?
Mrs. Gao was somewhat speechless. Yes, she had Caramel take care of her every few days. How could she not work and not do any chores?
"I only let Tangtang play at home because I love her."
"Then you can stay home and play by yourself from now on. My daughter doesn't want to be with you anymore and wants to break up with you. Stop being so overconfident all the time, like the whole world loves you, like you are the whole world, and you are nothing, okay?"
She used to be blind, easily fooled by you. Now, if she's blind again, I'll drag her back. Marriage? Forget it.
Marriage is something that should be discussed and decided by both families. Do the two of them even have that intention?
No, they were all thinking about how to control the caramel.
"Auntie, it's been four years. I don't believe Caramel has lost her feelings for me so quickly."
"Your so-called relationship is just about ignoring everything, right? You say you want to discuss marriage. Have you shown your family's stance?"
"I'm sorry, but I really don't see any indication that you want to marry my daughter."
Mo Yan interrupted Gao Yang directly, saying that no one else would have done that.
“I’ve been here for a month, a whole month, and you’ve shown up even once? Did you catch up with me at the hospital that day? No, right? What right do you have to say you want to marry my daughter?”
My impression is that you don't care about Caramel at all; you want to ignore her, make her feel inferior, and control her.
A man who doesn't even know how to protect his own girlfriend, a man who doesn't value marriage—does he truly love this girl?
"Also, I don't like things getting messy, so you two had better settle this today."
Mo Yan rattled off a whole bunch of things, leaving Gao Yang and his mother speechless.
Not to mention them, even Caramel herself was stunned. She thought she was going to have a falling out with the mother and son, and maybe even have a big fight, but she didn't expect... her mother just scolded them into silence.
Caramel's eyes stung, really stung. Her mother kept saying she wouldn't care about her anymore, but no matter where she threw her, or even when she directly confronted Gao Yang and his mother today, leaving them speechless, she was just stubborn on the outside but soft on the inside.
