Shen Mingyue's disdainful words completely ignited Jiang He's anger.
Bang--
He kicked the door open, slammed the electric hot pot onto the table, and glared at Shen Mingyue.
"What right do you have to call me trash, what right do you have to insult me, and what right do you have to throw away my medicine?"
"This is my home. I didn't invite you in, so what right do you have to come in! Get out! I don't know you, so get out!"
Shen Mingyue was startled by Jiang He's sudden appearance.
He was initially a little guilty because Jiang He had overheard him calling him a cockroach.
But Jiang He's utter lack of manners, his yelling and cursing at her, also enraged her.
"I'm your mother! Why can't I come in?"
"Jiang He, is this how you talk to your mother? Where is your upbringing? Where is your filial piety? Is this how I taught you?"
Xiao Chen was startled by the argument that erupted between the mother and son.
Quickly close the door, block it with a stool, and then start trying to break up the fight.
"Calm down, Mingyue. Don't be angry, don't be angry. Mingyue, the child is just being childish. We can teach him slowly. Don't get yourself sick from getting angry."
"Don't forget, you came here to reconcile with Jiang He and to have her come home with you, not to argue with her, right?"
After persuading Shen Mingyue, he then persuaded Jiang He.
"Jiang He, speak nicely to Sister Mingyue. Sister Mingyue just has a bad temper; she didn't mean it."
"What grudge could a mother and child hold against each other overnight..."
"Alright, you don't need to say anything more!"
Jiang He now feels disgusted whenever she hears Xiao Chen's "family members don't hold grudges overnight" nonsense.
Impatient with listening any longer, he simply cut to the chase and asked Shen Mingyue.
"Speak up, what do you want from me? Say what you have to say quickly. I'll give you three minutes. Once you're done, get out of here."
Jiang He was only given these three minutes because Shen Mingyue was her biological mother and had given her life.
Shen Mingyue was enraged by Jiang He's attitude.
The anger that had been gradually subsiding because of Xiao Chen's persuasion surged again.
He also abandoned the idea of reasoning with Jiang He, and naturally, spoke to her in a commanding tone.
"Jiang He, your third sister said that she came to see you yesterday, and you hit her. She also said that you are an orphan and have no relatives, is that right?"
"How could you say such a thing? You're utterly disrespectful! You have no family, no parents, so what do you take me and your father for?"
Do you think we're dead, or are you cursing us to die?
"Don't think that just because you can write a couple of songs, you're some kind of genius or that you're all grown up now. Our whole family is begging you!"
"I'm telling you, Jiang He, you're coming home with me right now! Apologize to your third sister!"
"And that collaboration with Zhao Tiantian, call her immediately and cancel it. She's your third sister's rival, how can you side with an outsider and help her against your own people?"
Shen Mingyue kept talking, but Jiang He remained silent.
I thought he had listened and was reflecting on his actions.
So he patiently softened his tone, intending to save Jiang He's face and show his concern for him.
To avoid her eldest daughter accusing her of favoritism and unfair treatment of Jiang He and Jiang Bai.
She tried to soften her tone, as if she were considering Jiang He's feelings and caring about her.
But what he said had the opposite effect, carrying a strong sense of sarcasm.
"Jiang He, I'll give you another chance since you sincerely admitted your mistake. Later, throw away all this trash of yours and come back to the Jiang family villa with me."
"This room is as small as a pigeon coop, how can you live here? Sometimes, I even doubt if you're my biological child."
"Otherwise, why would you not only be mentally unstable, but also live in this dilapidated house? And what's with this talk of running away from home and cutting ties!"
"What a fool! He doesn't appreciate kindness. Let me tell you—"
"Have you said enough?!"
Shen Mingyue was talking incessantly when Jiang He suddenly interrupted her.
Jiang He took out his phone, which displayed a timer. The time was exactly three minutes.
"Three minutes are up. If that's all you have to say, then you can shut up and get out!"
Shen Mingyue was stunned for a while before she understood what Jiang He was talking about.
It turns out that Jiang He wasn't just reflecting on himself; he was actually counting down the days!
He had said he'd give her three minutes and then leave, and it turned out he wasn't joking or just saying it in anger; he really meant it!
Shen Mingyue broke down, feeling offended and humiliated.
"Jiang He! You beast! How could you humiliate me like this?!"
"I'm your mother, I gave birth to you and raised you, and this is how you treat me? How dare you treat me like this? Don't you have any conscience?!"
Jiang He also got angry.
"Shen Mingyue, you don't deserve to be my mother."
“You keep saying that you are my mother, always talking about how you gave birth to me and raised me, and about filial piety.”
"But ask yourself, are you worthy? Are you a qualified mother?"
“From the moment I was born, you have despised me for being an idiot and have never been willing to get close to me. When I was little, if I called you ‘Mom’, you would scream in disgust.”
"You told me not to call you 'Mom'? You don't have a stupid son like me. Telling me to call you 'Mom' is an insult to you!"
“After I was abducted by human traffickers, you only spent a month before you forgot about me and immediately adopted Jiang Bai, treating him like your own son and spoiling him in every way.”
"I endured ten years of hardship outside, and it wasn't easy for me to be found and brought back. And how did you treat me?"
