Perhaps the accumulation of emotions was too much to suppress, and Xu Chunxia finally erupted: "How am I not having any self-respect or self-love? I told you clearly, I was deceived—why don’t you believe me? And since you think I’m no good, why did you accept me in the first place? Now you find me shameless and want to marry me off to an older man with violent tendencies—a big fool. You’re trying to put me in harm’s way, aren’t you?
If you want me dead, why did you save me on the street earlier?"
"You ungrateful girl!"
Fang Su stepped forward and slapped Xu Chunxia across the face, gritting her teeth: "The Hu family’s status even surpasses the Feng family. I put in a lot of effort to find this match for you!
Besides, what’s wrong with marrying a fool? The Hu family only has one son; if you marry him and bear children quickly, wouldn’t the Hu family treat you like royalty?
You don’t understand my intentions, yet you accuse me of wishing you dead. Now, you tell me, what good would it do me if you died?"
"You know it yourself! If it wouldn’t benefit you, why would you push me into the fire pit, why send me off?"
Xu Chunxia cried out: "You lost me when I was a child, causing me to suffer so much and endure hardships in the Xu family, yet I never blamed you for it.
Later, when you recognized me, I was uneasy yet happy. I thought I was the luckiest girl in the world, having a mother who would love me, not casually beat and scold me, and ensure I had enough to eat and wear. But how did you treat me?
You were nice to me for a few days, then started seeing everything wrong with me, thought I embarrassed you outside... To make you happy, I changed my bad habits, learned to dress and groom from others, yet you said I made myself look neither human nor ghost. Tell me, what did I do wrong?"
With tears in her voice questioning, Xu Chunxia felt deeply hurt by Fang Su, her biological mother. Her expression was pained: "Usually, when parents find matches for their children, they truly choose the best. But you?
You’re just focused on pushing me into the fire, afraid my life might be too comfortable. I want to ask, did you ever have good intentions for me? Or, from the moment you identified me as your long-lost daughter, you’ve been against my happiness?"
If she truly opposed her happiness, why would she send her to the hospital, treat her so well?
"I won’t marry him!" Xu Chunxia screamed amidst her tears: "If you think it’s good, then you marry into the Hu family yourself. Don’t even think about getting me to agree!"
"It’s not up to you whether you marry or not!"
Fang Su coldly said: "The date is set for the twenty-eighth of December, just the day after tomorrow. If you dare to act up, watch out, I’ll skin you alive!"
"I hate you! You’re not my mother!" Xu Chunxia cried desperately, then she ran upstairs, grabbed her bag, came back down, and under Fang Su’s fierce gaze, ran to the door.
"If you run out that door, don’t even think about coming back!"
Fang Su’s gaze was fierce enough to devour someone, yet Xu Chunxia didn’t stop, and in a blink, she was gone through the door.
