“Mom, I miss you both, I want to come home.” Tears rolled down Shen Xi’s cheeks when she heard that familiar voice.

The woman on the opposite end heard her sobs and could not help but weep. “Go be the Young Miss you’ve always wanted to be and don’t look for us again.”

“Mom, I’m right outside!” Shen Xi has just finished speaking and heard a dull thud on the other end of the call.

Next, the door opened.

A familiar figure stumbled out of the courtyard and ran towards her. The figure stood at the entrance and regarded Shen Xi. “Who told you to come back? Go away, we don’t welcome you!”

“Mom, they hit me,” Shen Xi complained and wept as she rolled up her sleeves for her mother.

Yun Jinping looked at her daughter who was in a total mess and covered in wounds. All of a sudden, she felt the urge to confront the Su family. She could not suppress her own emotions any longer, so she ran forward and hugged Shen Xi tightly. “Why did you come back? Why did you come back?!”

Shen Xi was her precious baby. Neither Old Shen nor herself dared to lay a finger on her, and to think the Su family had the audacity to hit her!

“Mom, I’m not leaving, I won’t leave you again. I was wrong, it’s all my fault, you and Dad mustn’t leave me.” Shen Xi embraced her and bawled.

Yun Jinping nodded and led her into the house. “Don’t leave us, come home. No matter how poor Mom and Dad are, we won’t send you away again. The most important thing is we are together as a family.”

After their daughter left, they did not hear from her at all. No one knew how Yun Jinping and Old Shen carried on with their lives. They spent each of their days in tears and they would cry whenever they saw their daughter’s belongings.

Yun Jinping took Shen Xi to the community hospital for treatment. After coming home, Yun Jinping grew sadder the longer she looked at Shen Xi and became angry. “Once your father’s back, we’ll head to the Su family and give them a piece of our minds. I bet they’ll be reasonable for once.”

Shen Xi was sitting on the sofa and chowing down on her mother’s beef noodles. She mumbled with her mouth full, “Mom, I’ve taught them a lesson. Do you think your daughter is the type of person who gets pushed around?”

Most of the time, Madam Yun was patient and soft-spoken. She would only become enraged when it was something concerning her daughter.

Yun Jinping sighed helplessly. She asked Shen Xi, “Can you still eat?”

“Why not?” Shen Xi smiled with her head cocked to one side. She stuffed herself with another mouthful of noodles. “Mom, they are just a bunch of nobodies. To me, they are unimportant and not worth getting angry with.”

To her, they were just her foes!

Yun Jinping said, “Are you absolutely sure that you won’t go back?”

She did not want her daughter to head back there. Regardless of how difficult their lives would be, she was happy that they would brave the hardships together as a family.

She and Old Shen were still in their prime and able-bodied. They would not starve to death.

“Mm.” Shen Xi patted her chest and accidentally touched her wound. She snarled as she grimaced in pain, “Whoever goes back is a b*stard!”

Yun Jinping hurried forward and patted her arm anxiously. “What did you do that for? What if you hurt yourself?”

Shen Xi laughed cheekily and hugged her mother around the waist. “Mom, you’re the best!”

With a frown, Yun Jinping tapped on her daughter’s forehead with the tip of her finger. “Don’t you stain my new outfit with your oily lips.”

Shen Xi replied, “That’s not new, you bought it two years ago. If it’s stained, I’ll buy you a new one.”

Yun Jinping displayed a contented smile. “My daughter’s all grown up and knows that she has to buy new clothes for her mom.”

Shen Xi quipped, “Your daughter’s adorable, responsible, kind, and she’ll make a lot of money in the future to repay you both. Are you willing to send her away to someone else?”

Yun Jinping answered, “No.”
