Chapter 127 She has never been a good child
Lin Zixia entered the house and realized that the atmosphere was a little strange.
Xu Youlin reminded him in a low voice, "Your parents called you but no one answered, so they called my mom."
Her phone was on silent, so when she took it out, she saw that there were indeed several missed calls.
In the living room, Ye Yinghui said in a slow voice, "The child has grown up and has his own ideas. Don't be so excited. Let's talk it over later."
Lin Zixia paused. She had a rough idea of what was going on and had long been prepared for the bloody storm. However, she had assumed they wouldn't know until the acceptance letter came out.
She pursed her lips, walked towards the living room, and said softly, "Aunt, I'm back."
Ye Yinghui turned around when she heard the voice and said softly, "Xiao Xia is back. It's your mother calling."
Lin Zixia smiled and reached out to take the phone.
"Hello……"
As soon as she opened her mouth, she was bombarded with questions from the other end of the line, "I called you so many times, why didn't you answer?"
Lin Zixia: "My phone is on silent, I didn't hear it."
Ye Yinghua didn't have time to pursue this. She asked, "What's wrong with your major? Did you really choose an unpopular major like the report said?"
Lin Zixia did not hide it, "Yes."
Ye Yinghua flew into a rage. "You're the top scorer in liberal arts, yet you chose a major like that? You chose to study finance and law instead. Did you listen to me and your dad? We've always thought you were obedient and sensible. How come you didn't even consult us on such a big thing?"
Lin Zixia bit her lip and said, "I chose the major I like."
"You like it? I tried to persuade you to study liberal arts when you were studying it. I only agreed because you said you wanted to study economics in the future. Now you're telling me you don't like it? Your dad and I have experienced more than you've experienced. Would we harm you?"
For Ye Yinghua and Lin Anhong, it was like a flash of heaven and a flash of hell. The joy of learning that Lin Zixia had won the top spot in the liberal arts exam turned into anger and confusion at this moment.
"You're just being naive now. You'll understand when you look for a job. Besides, as a girl, you're going to be exposed to the wind and sun, facing the earth. Can you handle it?"
"You disappoint us so much!"
Every word Ye Yinghua said was filled with questioning and confusion, as if she, the "good child" in the eyes of adults, had suddenly become a bad child.
Lin Zixia's fingers gripping the phone tightened little by little, until her knuckles turned white. She took a deep breath and said slowly, "This is my own life, my own choices. I will be responsible for them."
"You're responsible? What responsibility can you take?" Ye Yinghua's tone was high. Lin Zixia had never been so stubborn before, which made her puzzled. "You've always been obedient, why did you suddenly become so stubborn? Did you learn to be bad in Chengdu?"
Lin Anhong answered the phone. His tone wasn't as intense as Ye Yinghua's, but still full of blame. "Xiao Xia, Mom and I don't know why you suddenly became like this. You even learned to lie to us."
"You really disappoint us in this matter."
Lin Zixia felt a blockage in her heart, and all the emotions that had been accumulating for a long time suddenly flooded in. Her nose felt sore, but she bit her lips tightly to prevent herself from crying.
She turned on the hands-free mode directly, forced back the bitterness in her eyes, and said lightly, "Since we are talking about disappointment, let's talk it out once and for all today."
Ye Yinghui and Xu Youlin on the side were stunned.
Lin Zixia's reaction was very different from what they had imagined.
Lin Zixia took a deep breath, a mocking smile curling his lips. "You say you're disappointed in me, but what are your expectations of me? To be the good kid you call me, to do whatever you say, to satisfy your vanity and desire for control like a puppet?"
"You..." Ye Yinghua and Lin Anhong were both stunned. "What are you talking about?"
Lin Zixia ignored their reactions and spoke freely, "Why should I meet your expectations? From the moment I was born, I was destined to fall short of your hopes. I'm a girl, so you gave up on me a long time ago, didn't you?"
"Anyway, no one knows I'm your child. Even if I end up begging for food or going to jail, I won't bring shame to you."
"Lin Zixia!" Lin Anhong shouted angrily, not knowing whether it was because he had touched a sore spot or because this was the first time she had disobeyed him like this. "How can you talk to your parents like that? We've supported you all your life, and this is how you think!"
Ye Yinghui, who was standing by, saw that something was wrong and wanted to step forward to persuade them, but was stopped by Xu Youlin. He shook his head and signaled her not to speak now.
Lin Zixia chuckled, "You've supported me all this time? I grew up in my uncle's house. Besides living expenses, besides money, what else have you given me?"
"I was just a guest at my uncle's house, and now that I'm back in Qingjiang, I'm no different. That home was suffocating and oppressing me. I studied hard every day, hoping to escape from there one day, to have the right to choose, to be able to say no to you without hesitation!"
She had been holding these words in for a long time, and even though she knew they wouldn't understand if she said them, she still had to say them.
"Lin Zixia, do you really think that just because you've grown up and gotten into university, you can talk to us like this? You're truly outrageous!"
"Everything you eat and use now was earned by your father and I. Do you still have any conscience?"
Lin Zixia sneered. She knew that they would never think they were wrong and would always use their status to oppress others.
"I will account for every penny you've spent on me over the years and return it to you later."
"But from now on, you don't need to interfere in my affairs."
"I'm a girl, not a boy. I can't meet your expectations. Just treat me as if I don't exist."
After saying that, Lin Zixia stood up and returned the phone to Ye Yinghui.
Ye Yinghui was still in shock. She had never known that Lin Zixia, who looked well-behaved and sensible, actually thought like this in his heart.
Lin Zixia didn't know how to face Ye Yinghui at this moment. She was very nice to him, but this kindness was based on Ye Yinghua.
She no longer behaved well, she was rebellious, unfilial, and her body was covered with thorns.
How does she look like in the eyes of Ye Yinghui and Xu Youlin?
How could she stay in Ye Yinghui's house with peace of mind?
Ye Yinghua and Lin Anhong on the other side were furious, and Ye Yinghui hurried to appease them.
She looked up at Xu Youlin, smiled, and said softly as if nothing had happened, "Brother Youlin, I'm going downstairs for a walk."
