Chapter 921 Stop Pretending
After a while, she got up from the ground and opened the door.
What Ye Shuping saw was her daughter's disheveled hair and red eyes, looking as if she had been abused, and her heart ached.
She said softly, "Xiaoyi, Mom knows about what's going on online. Don't take those lousy netizens' nonsense to heart. We don't depend on them for food, so we don't need to pay attention to them. Your dad and I have been very worried about you these past few days. Why don't you come back with Mom?"
Cheng Yi stood silently for a while, then suddenly looked up, her beautiful eyes flashing with hatred: "It's you! You're the one who ruined me. Why did you instigate me to steal the exam papers? Why did you give me advice? Why did you make me unable to hold my head up in front of everyone now!"
If it weren't for the irrefutable evidence of her stealing the exam papers, she wouldn't have fallen into this predicament, nor would she have been afraid to face it, causing her hard-earned career to vanish in an instant!
It's all her fault!
It's all her fault!
What right does she have to say she's worried about me?
Cheng Yi was on the verge of going crazy: "I have nothing left, nothing at all, I don't want to see you!"
Ye Shuping never expected Cheng Yi to blame her, and stood there stunned for a moment: "Xiao Yi, I did it for your own good..."
Cheng Yi's expression was almost indifferent: "For my own good? I was young and ignorant back then, didn't you understand? It was clearly you who were afraid that my poor grades would be exposed and bring shame to the Cheng family."
Ye Shuping swears that when she gave Cheng Yi the idea to steal the exam papers, she never thought of it that way, but she never expected her daughter to think of her in this way.
She took a step back, heartbroken. Looking at Cheng Yi's frantic state, she wanted to get angry, but considering Cheng Yi's special situation, she suppressed her emotions and said, "Xiao Yi, it was Mom who didn't think things through. You can blame Mom if you want, but please don't get upset."
Cheng Yi gave a cold, sorrowful laugh: "It's too late to say anything now."
Since returning to the Cheng family, nothing she has done has been right or smooth; one wrong step leads to another.
She didn't know why things had turned out this way, but she knew she was ruined, utterly ruined.
Ye Shuping tried to comfort Cheng Yi, and tried to take her arm, saying, "Xiao Yi, you are the daughter of the Cheng family. You have everything you want. How could you have nothing? If you really want to be a star, I will persuade your father to let you be one. I will also take care of those things on the internet for you."
Cheng Yi looked at her sneer: "Settle it? How do you plan to settle it? Are you willing to go against the daughter you raised for eighteen years for my sake?"
Ye Shuping was furious: "Xiaoyi, there's a limit to how crazy you can be! Listen to the nonsense you're spouting! You're my own daughter, how can He Jing compare to you!"
Cheng Yi laughed, extremely contemptuous, and said, "Is that so? You think you can fool me like that? Actually, you've always regretted it, haven't you? You regret switching me back with He Jing! Oh, at first, you were quite sincere, but after you found out that I wasn't as good as He Jing, you regretted it and wanted to switch me back with He Jing."
"But what can you do? You were too harsh back then, and you hurt He Jing's feelings. You found out that He Jing doesn't want you anymore. Even if you want to get her back, she won't, and she doesn't even want to look at you."
"So you are angry and even resentful, wishing you could do everything you can to make He Jing suffer, cursing her day and night that she is unhappy, and wanting her to regret it and come back to the Cheng family to beg you."
"It's a pity. She's doing better and better. So many of her brothers are successful and dote on her, but she's never looked back. You have to put up with me, this terrible second-generation heiress, but you've never forgotten He Jing for a single moment. Am I right?!"
Ye Shuping's face paled, and she slowly said, "Xiaoyi, has this been how you've thought of me all these years?"
Cheng Yi's mocking smile deepened, and she casually tossed out a sentence: "Stop pretending, I'm your daughter."
A mother can easily know what her daughter is thinking, and the daughter can do the same. This is an unbreakable tacit understanding in blood and an innate connection of hearts.
Ye Shuping was really thinking about He Jing!
