Liu Jingsong glared at Xiao Jiena on the ground, then stormed out.
As she thought about it, she felt regretful. She realized how foolish she had been to offend her aunt for someone like that. She couldn't imagine what she would do in the future.
Thinking of life in Liujiatun, my heart trembled even more. I can't do this, I really can't do this, I absolutely cannot leave.
Instead of returning to his own room, he went directly to his aunt's residence, where the bodyguards stopped him at the door.
"I want to find my aunt, aunt, aunt!"
Zhang Hongmei didn't come down to eat; she had no appetite. But Zhang Xingguo knew what had happened and waved to Chen Xing.
Chen Xing went out and said, "Leave now, this is not a place for you to cause trouble." Chen Xing was now on the steps, and Liu Jingsong looked up at Chen Xing, only then realizing the difference in their status.
"Uncle Chen, I want to see my aunt."
"Go back now. Madam hasn't come down for dinner. Stop making a scene; it won't do you any good."
"But they're about to take me away, and I have to see my aunt."
"Liu Jingsong, you should know our methods. You don't want to try them."
Liu Jinsong lowered his head, turned around, and left dejectedly.
No, this can't be done. I need to go find my second aunt.
Thinking of this, Liu Jinsong took off running.
They found Er Ya and the others in the cafeteria. "Second Aunt, please help me. I don't want to go back, I can't go back. What will I do then?"
Er Ya put down her chopsticks and looked at all the children who were watching her. She had already told them about Jin Song's situation, but the children still didn't quite understand. However, they all knew that their eldest brother had angered their aunt. Now that everyone in the cafeteria was family, Er Ya spoke more freely.
"Jingsong, you have not only disappointed Hongmei, but I am also very disappointed. Do you still remember what happened when you were a child? You have probably forgotten what kind of life you lived. Who rescued you? Who gave you a good life? Who let you receive such a good education?"
Are you scared now? Ever since Zhenye and the others grew up, you've been dissatisfied. Everyone can see it, but they all put up with it. What kind of leader will you be in the future? Who do you think you are?
Jingsong, you always compare yourself to Zhenye and the others, but what do you have to compare yourself to? If it weren't for Zhenye and the others' mother, who knows what would have happened to you in Liujiatun? And how did you repay Zhang Hongmei?
You think today's events are trivial? But what's truly important to you? Is it not wanting to be sent away? Don't you think you're being too selfish? You're not like Ping An and the others. You're thirteen years old, almost fourteen.
I know you came to me hoping I would plead for you, but do you think that's possible?
Put yourself in his shoes. You've raised a child for so many years, and he's jealous of his own child. Right now, you're just jealous because you're young, but what if you actually do something to hurt them later?
Jingsong, leave with dignity. Perhaps you can still greet each other with a smile if you meet again. You know who they are; you should be grateful they didn't harm you. All these years of nurturing you have been more than worthy of your trust.
If you become capable in the future, then live the life you've always wanted.
"Second Aunt..."
"Okay, that's all I can say. It would be great if you could listen to what I've said. If you still don't listen, it will affect your life in the future."
All the children in the cafeteria were shocked by what their mothers and aunts said. It turned out that the eldest brother had always been jealous of Zhenye and the others. Ping An remembered that the third brother had never liked the eldest brother. So that's why.
But why be jealous of Zhenye and the others? They are people you can't even catch up to; this is just making yourself uncomfortable.
None of the children spoke; they all lowered their heads and continued eating.
"Second Aunt, are you really going to abandon me?"
"Jinsong, tell me, how am I supposed to manage you?"
Liu Jingsong remained silent, hoping that Er Ya would plead for him to stay.
"Second Aunt, I promise I will never do this again."
"Jinsong, why can't you understand? Even if Hongmei keeps you here, what can you gain? The three leaders have lost all patience with you. How can you be so foolish?"
"Second Aunt, please, I want to see you."
“I can’t do it. You’ve lived with her for so many years, and you still don’t understand her? Let’s go.”
With tears in his eyes, Liu Jinsong looked around at the children studying with him in the room. They were all eating with their heads down, and no one even glanced at him.
"Okay, okay, I'm leaving." Liu Jingsong ran out with tears in his eyes.
"Sister Er Ya, no matter how much you explain, he won't understand. How did the child I brought home turn out like this?"
Wang Ying suddenly stood up and said, "All of you, put down your chopsticks. I'm going to say a few words. You don't have to understand them, but you should remember them."
If you can't treat the children you live and study with as brothers, then you can go live your own lives.
Also, if anyone acts like an ungrateful wretch, don't blame me for being impolite.
You must remember Zhang Hongmei's kindness to you for the rest of your lives. Wasn't she better to you than any of us parents? Do you understand?
"I've got it."
"Alright, remember Liu Jingsong's fate. Don't be arrogant, know your own limitations."
Liu Jingsong ran back from the cafeteria, collapsed onto the bed, and hated himself. He hated Zhang Hongmei for being so heartless, hated Zhang Xingguo for being so good to him when they were children but then neglecting him after Zhenye and the others came along. He hated Er Ya for not helping him, and hated his so-called younger brothers for not helping him at this moment. He had been so good to them all along!
Basically, I'm filled with resentment towards everyone. I feel like everyone has wronged me.
Although I had all sorts of complaints in my heart, I still didn't have the courage to do anything. I had thought about leaving earlier, but I still couldn't bear to part with the things I had left in the capital. They were all the good things I had accumulated over the years, and I had a lot of money. Even if I had to leave, I wouldn't be too sad with these things. I would never stay in Liujiatun. I wanted to go to the city to study and go to university.
They'll regret treating me like this someday. I can support myself. I have to find a way to stay in the city. Otherwise, I'll be stuck farming in Liujiatun my whole life. How can I ever amount to anything then? I refuse to believe I can't succeed without them.
But two hours have passed and there's still no sign of them. What's going on? Are they not going to take me home?
Liu Jingsong excitedly paced around the room, but dared not ask. If they had forgotten, asking them would be a reminder.
