He Jing easily grasped her hand.
Mother He snapped out of her shock.
She never expected He Jing to stand up for her, and in such a way. Wouldn't that mean she was...
Mother He opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a single syllable. Yet, the bitterness in her heart vanished instantly.
She really has a wonderful daughter!
real.
In the end, it was Mr. He who reacted quickly and hurriedly said, "Jingjing, how could you lay a hand on Madam Cheng!"
At the same time, a voice called out from behind Ye Shuping: "Mom."
A gentle voice suddenly rang out, like a fire extinguisher, instantly extinguishing Ye Shuping's flames.
Ye Shuping immediately broke free from He Jing's hand, turned around and looked back at Cheng Yi.
Cheng Yi was standing not far from her, clearly having rushed over as soon as he received the news, his forehead covered in sweat.
She glanced at her, then quickly looked at He's mother, before turning her gaze back and saying, "Mom, the He family can't make decisions about the marriage. What are you doing here?"
She quickly stepped forward and walked up to He's mother. Like a child who had done something wrong, she lowered her head and said timidly, "Mom, I'm sorry. My mom was just too impulsive."
Mother He did not respond. She picked up all the "corpses" of the diamond necklace from the ground and placed them in Cheng Yi's hands: "Thank you for the gift you gave me back then. I'm returning it to you now. Don't buy me any more in the future. I can't accept it."
Cheng Yi was stunned for a moment, and before she could speak, Ye Shuping asked excitedly, "Xiao Yi, what did you just call her?"
“I…” Cheng Yi paused, looking at Ye Shuping’s reddened eyes and fierce expression, and answered softly, “Aunt He.”
Ye Shuping then let her go, and turned to He's mother and said, "You dare let your daughter hit me? Let me tell you, this is not over. I will have my lawyer send you a lawyer's letter and sue your He family until they are bankrupt."
He Jing glanced at Cheng Yi and said coldly, "Let me correct you, I'm the one who hit you."
Cheng Yi was still looking at the diamond necklace in her palm. The necklace she had worked so hard to earn money as a personal shopper had been broken into several pieces. Ye Shuping swept the diamond necklace away from her hand and said loudly, "Everyone knows to protect their mother. Are you mute?"
Cheng Yi glanced at Ye Shuping's distorted face, then at the tear stains remaining on He's mother's cheeks, and finally returned to reality.
As if she had rehearsed it a thousand times, Cheng Yi smiled and took Ye Shuping's arm, saying sweetly, "Mom, how could I not know how to protect you? I was just organizing my thoughts. Once I marry Young Master Yan, what could be a more powerful counterattack than this? Sister He Jing has always been rebellious, so please don't be angry with her."
Ye Shuping was undoubtedly swayed by this, and her anger visibly subsided. She gave He Jing a haughty look, deliberately patted Cheng Yi's hand, and said, "This is my good daughter."
Cheng Yi then turned her gaze to He Jing: "Sister He Jing, no matter what, hitting people is wrong!"
He Jing replied lazily, "Really? Even if she hit someone first, it's the same?"
Cheng Yi's face stiffened instantly. She selectively skipped over that sentence, not daring to look at He's mother, and then said to Ye Shuping, "Mom, let's go. Let's not stay here any longer. Dad has been waiting for you at home for a long time."
Ye Shuping glanced at He's parents with a deliberately smug look and said, "Okay, let's go."
Cheng Yi and Ye Shuping walked away proudly, as if they had won a battle.
Mother He watched their retreating figures for a long time, and after a while, He Jing whispered in her ear, "Mom, don't be too sad."
Mother He immediately shook her head, gave He Jing a bright smile, and said, "Mom isn't sad at all!"
Because she already has the best daughter in the world!
