After crying for a while, Dong Siyue calmed down a bit. She wiped away her tears and continued, "There were a total of six people who bullied my sister. The ringleader is seventeen years old. His parents are very powerful in our hometown. The other five are his henchmen."
After the incident, the main culprit's parents spread rumors everywhere, saying that my sister was seducing men at a young age, and that because the parents were corrupt, all the children my mother raised were sluts..."
Dong Siyue gritted her teeth and said, "My mother has always been virtuous. Even though many people asked her to make quick money, she endured it for the sake of our sisters' reputation. She worked hard selling breakfast from dawn till dusk and rarely even spoke to men. Those people, for the sake of their sons, went against their conscience and smeared our family."
Ye Qingqing felt a pang of sadness; she never imagined that Dong Siyue, who seemed so carefree, had such a tragic past.
The most tragic one was her poor younger sister, who was just a budding flower that withered before she could even bloom.
Judging from Dong Siyue's angry expression, it seems that the murderers have not received the punishment they deserve!
But Ye Qingqing was still puzzled. What did this have to do with Dong Siyue becoming Li Hongming's mistress?
Furthermore, since Dong Siyue's father died when she was very young, who was the man at the start of the school year?
Dong Siyue took another sip of her drink, and said bitterly, "The school is also taking sides with those bastards, and they're threatening us not to talk about it outside. The mother of the main culprit even brought 50,000 yuan to my house... Hah... Do they really think they can do whatever they want just because they have money...?"
She started crying again, tears streaming down her face. "Money really does give you the power to do whatever you want. The law only serves the rich. The poor can never expect fairness and justice. I was so naive before. After my sister jumped to her death, those people and the school panicked and started bringing money to my house again..."
Dong Siyue's expression turned strange, looking at someone with a rash. Ye Qingqing looked around, couldn't help but rub her arms, and broke the silence with a sound.
"And then? Did your mom take the money?"
“I’ve accepted it. It’s exactly 100,000 yuan. My mom took it all, not a penny less.”
Dong Siyue's answer surprised Ye Qingqing. She originally thought that Dong's mother would definitely not accept the money, after all, it was her daughter's life-saving money!
"Don't you find it strange that my mother accepted my sister's money for risking her life?" Dong Siyue saw Ye Qingqing's confusion and smiled sadly. "At the time, I was even more confused. I even cursed my mother, calling her cold-blooded, selfish, and incompetent... I said a lot of nasty things, but my mother just listened and didn't defend herself."
"Your mother now?" Ye Qingqing had a bad feeling.
Dong Siyue looked grief-stricken and sighed, "Dead...gone three years ago."
Ye Qingqing was not surprised; it was within her expectations. If Dong's mother were still alive, she certainly wouldn't agree to Dong Siyue being an old man's mistress.
Dong Siyue continued to tell her story.
“My mom accepted 100,000 yuan. The main culprit’s parents and the school breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the matter was over. But no one expected it, not even me. My mom, who wouldn’t even kill a fish, would actually kill someone…”
Ye Qingqing was startled. Murder?
This was truly unexpected for her, but upon reflection, it made perfect sense.
With her beloved daughter murdered and the law unable to punish the killer, Dong's mother had no choice but to resort to her own methods.
Women are inherently weak, but mothers are strong!
