Mrs. Fu was stunned.
"Fu Mingya, what are you up to now?"
"I don’t care what you’re up to. Just leave. We don’t need you coming here to work."
Fu Mingya’s eyes were red-rimmed, her face a mask of hurt. "Aunt, I know you resent me for the mistake I made back then. I was just so scared, which is why I wasn’t thinking straight. Besides, at the time, my own mother kept saying Mingxue could go too since she was also part of the Fu family. I... I just had a moment of weakness."
"These past two years, I’ve suffered a great deal in the countryside. I never knew life there was so hard. I’ve been regretting my mistake ever since, and I’m so glad Mingxue didn’t have to go. Otherwise, my conscience would have tormented me endlessly. Aunt, since you’re leaving soon, please just let me help out for a few days. That way, I’ll know you don’t hold a grudge against me anymore—"
Mrs. Fu was stunned. "You have a conscience?"
Fu Mingya looked up in astonishment. ’Is that something an elder should say?’
’What does she mean, I have a conscience? Is she calling me heartless?’
"Look at you. You’re not a child anymore, but your acting is still terrible. All right, I don’t have time to watch your performance. After all, the things you get for free always end up being the most expensive."
"Hurry up and leave! Get out of my sight."
After saying her piece, Mrs. Fu slammed the main door shut. SLAM.
Fu Mingya’s face instantly twisted with rage.
’That mother and daughter are insane! How could they be like that?’
’And that old widow... serves her right she’s a widow for life.’
She stared at the shabby door with a venomous glare for a long moment before finally turning to leave—
She swore to herself that one day, she would make that mother and daughter pay for the humiliation she had suffered at their hands.
She would grind them under her heel.
The moment she got home, Bian Yuqiao peppered her with questions. "How did it go? Did you tell them? What was their reaction? Why are you back so soon?"
The barrage of questions slammed into Fu Mingya.
Fu Mingya’s fury boiled over. "I told them. That aunt of mine called me heartless and told me to get lost—"
