Chapter 438: You Don’t Need to Care for My Sake
Chapter 438: No Need to Do It for My Sake
When the classmates heard this, they couldn’t help but laugh; Jiang Huaiyu was too domineering, even forbidding Xiao Hua to follow Jiang Mengyu?
Jiang Mengyu laughed angrily: "Jiang Huaiyu, Xiao Hua is neither your property nor sold herself to you, what right do you have to control her?
She was blindly following you before, but now she sees your true nature and doesn’t want to play with you anymore. Naturally, she wants to hang out with whomever she desires; how can you do anything about that?"
Zhang Shuiyu also found it amusing: "It’s really funny, Jiang Huaiyu are you Xiao Hua’s mom? When Xiao Hua goes out, you shout—" she mimicked a woman calling out to her child: "I’m telling you, Xiao Hua, you better not play with so-and-so."
Upon hearing Shuiyu’s words, everyone around started laughing. Doesn’t every child have parents who restrict them from playing with certain people?
One classmate immediately mimicked, "Exactly, Xiao Hua, don’t play with so-and-so, don’t argue with others, or I’ll break your legs."
And then, another wave of laughter broke out.
"Haha, Jiang Huaiyu forbidding Xiao Hua from playing with Mengyu is just hilarious."
"When did Jiang Huaiyu become Xiao Hua’s guardian?"
"You know, Jiang Huaiyu really does have that village shrew vibe."
Jiang Huaiyu was so angry she wanted to speak but didn’t know what to say, after struggling for a while, she blurted out: "She’s a person who’ll recognize anyone as her mother if they care for her, she can betray me, naturally, she can betray you too!"
Mengyu laughed: "What does that have to do with you?"
Jiang Huaiyu clenched her teeth in anger, but with a grievance, turned to Jiang Mengyu and said, "I—I was just trying to look out for you—"
"You don’t need to do it for my sake!" Mengyu interrupted her: "When your parents didn’t let me study, you said it was for my good, said studying was too hard;
When your mom asked me to do chores, you said it meant I could handle all household work after getting married, that it was for my good;
Even when your mom didn’t let me eat, you said it was for my good, to make me remember next time to do things properly.
Oh, I remember now, on the night I received my university admission notice, when you handed me that bowl of sweet wine spiked with sedative, you also said it was because our parents were happy for me, it was for my good, so I should toast them a bowl of wine!"
Thinking of the past, Mengyu’s eyes reddened slightly; this Jiang Huaiyu, always under the banner of doing things for her good, had done many things that caused her to suffer.
"Jiang Huaiyu, every single thing you did ’for my good’ has left a deep mark on me!
So, Jiang Huaiyu, don’t come again telling me it’s for my good, because whenever I hear you say it’s for my good, I can’t help but remember all the bad things you’ve done!"
Jiang Huaiyu wanted to speak, but Jiang Mengyu suppressed her, not letting her talk.
"Besides, we no longer have any relation; if we have to define it, all that’s left is hostility. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have troubled me time and again."
"Jiang Mengyu, shut your mouth!" Jiang Huaiyu finally broke through Jiang Mengyu’s suppression and yelled loudly.
"Why should I shut up? Jiang Huaiyu, I know, you panic seeing Xiao Hua, who used to follow you around and let you boss her, now standing by my side.
Actually, you’re afraid of becoming a leader without followers, right? After all, the friends who you once attracted with little favors have now seen your true colors and no longer want to be your friends, so you’re desperate.
But what can you do? Who asked you to have such a terrible character?
Jiang Huaiyu, now nobody wants to play with you nor listen to you to help you with things, just wait to be abandoned!"
