"So you think Tong Zhihan won't get any benefits, so you start verbally abusing her, forcing her to have an abortion, and forcing her to marry another wealthy man who is over fifty years old."
Tong Zhihan didn't want to; she wanted to keep her unborn child. But you guys secretly drugged her, trying to cause her to miscarry.
She took a few sips, then realized she felt unwell and immediately poured out the bowl of medicine.
Fearing you might harm the child in her womb, she fled the Tong family in despair, but had nowhere to live. Because of her pregnancy, she couldn't find good work and endured ten months of hardship before suffering a difficult childbirth..."
At this point, Yi Tianran's gaze swept coldly over the three members of the Tong family, "If it weren't for the side effects of that medicine you gave her, perhaps Tong Zhihan wouldn't have had a difficult childbirth, and Huaihuai wouldn't have been born weak and sickly, fainting from time to time, taking medicine for so many years, and getting so many injections..."
If it weren't for the appearance of Zhuang Yizhan, the miracle doctor, who completely cured Huaihuai's illness, he would probably have grown up to be a sickly child.
As Yi Tianran recounted the truth in such detail, the three members of the Tong family felt a chill run down their spines, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
Unless there was a videotape recording everything, she would never have known.
"No..." Tong Zhiwei tried to argue, but the next moment, Huo Jinzhou rushed to her like the wind, grabbed her by the neck, and pressed her against the cabinet door, his eyes bloodshot as he said, "How dare you treat him like this!"
"Ugh—" Tong Zhiwei's face turned red with pain, and her desperate struggles were to no avail.
Seeing this, Tong's mother rushed over and desperately reached out to slap his arm, trying to remove his hand. "Don't hurt her! She didn't harm Zhihan! Let go!"
Huo Jinzhou's face contorted with rage, and he tightened his grip, squeezing harder and harder.
Seeing that Tong Zhiwei was about to be strangled to death, Tong's mother finally cried out, "It was me! I did it all!!! Let go of Weiwei! This was all part of my plan!"
Huo Jinzhou's pupils contracted sharply, and he suddenly released his grip, kicking Tong's mother away.
This time he used ten times the force, and Tong's mother was kicked against the wall. She was in so much pain that she saw stars and felt as if her internal organs were about to rupture. She was in unbearable agony.
"Say that again!" Huo Jinzhou walked up to her step by step and kicked her in the chest. "Why did you treat her like that? Say it again!!"
"Cough cough..." Whether it was due to internal organ rupture or not, Tong's mother coughed up a mouthful of blood on the spot.
Her face was contorted in pain, but she still held on, her voice hoarse as she said, "You ask me why? I also want to ask her why, why she can't grow up as I expected."
I suffered so much to carry her, teetering on the brink of death several times, and almost died in childbirth—all because of her.
I've suffered so much, my body is deformed from childbirth, and all I want is for her to grow up to be the elegant, well-behaved, and obedient lady I envision.
But she, from childhood to adulthood, has never done anything to my liking! She always goes against me and can't do anything right.
Compared to Weiwei, she's utterly useless and always makes me angry. Just thinking about it makes me want to strangle her when I was pregnant with her!
She had already given up entirely, her eyes filled with intense resentment as she vented her pent-up anger.
Yi Tianran found it utterly unbelievable.
How could a mother harbor such deep resentment towards her daughter, and for such an absurd reason?
Huo Jinzhou was so angry that he kicked her away again.
Tong's mother rolled to Yi Tianran's feet like a ball, her mouth full of blood, her expression ferocious, looking like a vengeful ghost crawling out of hell.
Yi Tianran showed no sympathy whatsoever, but instead said with contempt, "You're really ridiculous, hating your own daughter for such a reason."
No one can choose their own birth! Didn't you think about the risks and pain that pregnancy would bring before you gave birth to her?
But since you still choose to have the child, you have to take responsibility for her!
But you take out your pain from childbirth on your daughter, and you expect her to grow up according to your expectations.
Is she your puppet? She is a person, a human being with her own thoughts!
Because you harbor resentment, you've magnified her flaws to an extreme degree. Even the smallest thing seems like she's deliberately going against you. You're completely unfit to be a mother!!!
Faced with these resounding words, Tong's mother remained defiant, saying, "I gave birth to her, so I have the right to decide her life! It's her fault that she doesn't listen to me; she's unfilial."
Weiwei is different from her; she's my good daughter, so I'm willing to plan everything for her.
Yi Tianran wished she could slap her face to pieces.
However, violence sometimes cannot solve problems.
Her gaze suddenly swept over Tong Zhiwei, who was kneeling on the ground to the side, choking and trembling all over, and a glint of light flashed in her eyes.
"Really? You really think she's a good daughter?" she suddenly asked.
Without hesitation, the mother replied, "Of course!"
"Alright then! Tong Zhiwei!" Yi Tianran suddenly raised her voice and shouted, "I'll give you a chance. I can let either you or your mother leave here. Who do you choose?"
"What?" Tong Zhiwei raised her head warily, as if she had grasped a glimmer of hope. "You...you're telling the truth?"
“Of course, I’m a woman of my word.” Yi Tianran raised an eyebrow. “I’ll give you three seconds to make a choice. There’s no turning back. One, two—”
Before she could even finish counting, Tong Zhiwei blurted out, "Of course, let me go! I... I'm still young, I haven't committed a crime. My mom just confessed that she did it all, it has nothing to do with me, let me go!!!"
Hearing her answer, Yi Tianran was not surprised at all.
The mother, lying on the ground bleeding profusely, was struck dumb as if by lightning.
To save Tong Zhiwei, she took all the blame, willing to sacrifice everything for her daughter.
But now, the daughter disregards her own life and death, and is even willing to push herself into the fire to escape.
Is there anything more ironic than this?
"Ms. Tong, you heard it too. This is your dutiful and sensible daughter!" Yi Tianran glanced down at her, her eyes filled with contempt.
Tong's mother was so enraged that her eyes were bloodshot. She suddenly got up from the ground and rushed to Tong Zhiwei like a madwoman. She grabbed Tong's shoulders and hysterically shouted, "You said you liked Huo Jinzhou and that you had to have her no matter what, so I helped you!"
How could you do this to me? I sacrificed everything for you, how could you do this to me, you beast!
