"Thank you, and..."
Seeing that Yu Sheng had stopped, Shang Yan asked, "What?"
"sorry!"
"Why are you saying sorry?" Shang Yan asked, puzzled.
“Because…” Yu Sheng pursed her lips, “I caused you trouble again tonight.”
Hearing Yu Sheng say that, Shang Yan felt very guilty and blurted out, "You didn't cause me any trouble, it was me..."
"Sheng Sheng, who are you talking to on the phone?"
The warning voice on the other end of the phone interrupted Shang Yan's words. Before he could say anything, he saw Yu Sheng hurriedly hang up the phone and then quickly press something on her phone.
Under the bright light of the phone screen, her small face was filled with panic.
She's probably deleting their call logs...
As Shang Yan was thinking this, Yu Sheng looked up at him, then turned and walked into the house.
As soon as Yu Sheng entered the room, she casually closed the glass door and curtains.
Before I could even turn around, Yu Jing asked, "Who were you talking to on the phone? And why did you go outside?"
What was Yu Jing thinking when she asked this question? How could Yu Sheng not know?
It's one thing for Gu not to trust her, but now even she doesn't trust her.
She's her mother!
Yu Sheng's pent-up grievances reached a breaking point in that instant, and her hand gripping the curtains tightened involuntarily.
Seeing that Yu Sheng didn't reply for a long time, Yu Jing became a little annoyed and raised her voice: "I'm asking you a question! Didn't you hear me?"
Yu Jing's raised voice pierced Yu Sheng's reason like a sharp sword. She turned around, looking at her with a wronged yet stubborn expression, and said, "Who do you think I'm talking to on the phone? My lover?"
Yu Jing had never given Yu Sheng the impression of a loving mother, but rather a domineering one.
She demanded absolute obedience to her words!
Even the slightest disobedience or reluctance from her resulted in verbal abuse and physical assault!
She doesn't seem like her daughter, but rather like her slave!
At first, she was too small to resist.
Later, when she grew up and had the ability to rebel, she used Xiao Cheng to control her.
Her control was like a chain tightly binding her neck; she wanted to break free, but she was powerless to do so!
Therefore, for the past ten years, she has been like an obedient puppet, completely at the mercy of her.
She just asked her who she was talking to on the phone?
She could just lie and say she called Sheng Ning, and the matter would be over.
But the suspicion implied in her tone made her feel insulted!
She is her mother, her family. How could she insult her like that?
Accustomed to authority, Yu Jing didn't realize she was insulting Yu Sheng. Seeing Yu Sheng's angry expression, she felt confused. "I'm just asking you, what's wrong with you?"
"Do you dare say that you didn't think that way when you asked me?"
Yu Sheng's whole body was tense, and her aggrieved eyes were red.
Yu Jing said irritably, "My thinking is all because of your actions. You dressed like that and went out to make a phone call, how could people not think too much?"
Yu Jing's words pierced Yu Sheng's already broken heart. She looked at her with sadness and disappointment: "Mom, I'm your daughter. Don't you know what kind of person I am?"
"Of course I know, but..."
Seeing that Yu Jing seemed hesitant to speak, Yu Sheng asked, "But what?"
What if you make a mistake for a moment?
Yu Sheng was amused by Yu Jing's words.
This is her biological mother!
If she could choose her own parents, she really wouldn't want to be her mother!
Yu Sheng choked back tears, "Mom... do you know? Sometimes I feel... you're even worse than... Qiao Weiyang..."
Upon hearing this, Yu Jing's face instantly fell, and she glared at Yu Sheng: "What did you say?"
“Qiao Weiyang hates me because of Xiao Cheng. At least he once fulfilled his responsibilities as a father, but you…” Yu Sheng sneered, “you haven’t even fulfilled your responsibilities as a mother for a single day. You treat me as a tool to continue your dreams, and you treat Xiao Cheng as a tool to control me!”
Yu Sheng's words ignited Yu Jing's anger. She rushed up to Yu Sheng and slapped her hard across the face!
Yu Sheng tilted her head, a burning pain spreading across half her face. Yu Jing said angrily, "What's wrong with you, acting crazy in the middle of the night? If I hadn't fulfilled my responsibilities as a mother, who raised you and Xiao Cheng?"
Overwhelmed by emotions, Yu Sheng felt a tightness in her throat. She clenched her fists and, with all her might, said, "Do you think... you've fulfilled your responsibilities as a mother by raising me?"
“I not only raised you, but I also nurtured you into a successful person and paid for Xiao Cheng’s medical expenses. In the end, in your eyes, I am not even as good as Qiao Weiyang… Yu Sheng, is this how you repay me?”
Yu Sheng swallowed the choked emotion in her throat and chuckled softly, "Did you raise your daughter to repay you?"
"you……"
Yu Jing was speechless after being confronted by Yu Sheng. She didn't want to listen to her nonsense anymore and asked, "Who were you talking to on the phone outside just now?"
Yu Sheng didn't answer her, but handed her the phone.
Yu Jing took the phone, looked at the phone case, and said, "Isn't this my phone? What are you doing with my phone?"
Yu Sheng replied directly, "Because my phone is with Gu Ye!"
"How come your phone is with him?" Yu Jing asked, puzzled.
"Because he plans tonight..." The last two words were difficult for Yu Sheng to say, but she gritted her teeth and guessed: "to rape me, and he's afraid I'll call you for help!"
Yu Jing looked on in astonishment: "What did you say? He was planning to rape you? Why would he do that?"
"Because he wanted to use that method to prove whether I had betrayed him."
How can you prove it?
Yu Jing asked, looking completely bewildered. After asking, seeing Yu Sheng's lowered eyes and silence, she instantly realized something and said incredulously, "You wouldn't be...and not yet with Gu Ye...?"
Before Yu Jing could finish speaking, Yu Sheng nodded with an embarrassed look on her face.
Even though Yu Sheng gave an affirmative answer, Yu Jing still couldn't believe it and exclaimed, "My God, you and Gu Ye have been married for so long, and you still haven't...why?"
Since things had come to this point, Yu Sheng naturally had no need to hide anything anymore, so she told Yu Jing everything.
Upon hearing this, Yu Jing felt as if her vision had completely blurred.
Seeing that she looked like she was about to fall, Yu Sheng quickly helped her up: "Mom, are you alright? Let me help you sit down."
Yu Jing was speechless and sat on the bed for a while before she recovered, her mind processing what Yu Sheng had just said.
She assumed they slept in the same room on their wedding night, but it turns out they've been sleeping in separate rooms ever since... and so on...
Suddenly remembering something, Yu Jing opened her eyes, pointed to the bathroom, and asked Yu Sheng, "You said you two have been sleeping in separate rooms since you got married, so why are his toiletries in your room?"
"He just said he came up to pack his clothes, but actually he just wanted to put his toiletries in."
As Yu Sheng finished speaking, Yu Jing's hand, which had been raised in mid-air, gradually fell down.
In an instant, her mind went blank, and she completely lost the ability to think.
Just then, she heard Yu Sheng say, "Gu also found me a psychologist a few days ago."
