The middle-aged mother fell silent for a moment, overwhelmed by what the Immortal Fox had said.
After all, it seemed like she had gone through it herself.
Just because she went through it, does it mean her child must walk the same path for it to be complete?
No, that’s not right. It’s not that she wants her daughter to be unhappy after marriage. What if, just what if, she finds a good in-laws?
The middle-aged mother tried to convince herself, but deep down she knew the odds were very, very small.
She was so engrossed that she momentarily forgot about her daughter being tangled up in a mess of bad relationships.
Scarlett Jennings, watching from the side as the Immortal Fox fell silent, thought for a moment before suddenly speaking,
"Your daughter should be in the same city as you, right? It’s the weekend today; I suggest you take your family to see her."
The middle-aged mother was still a bit slow to react, and instinctively replied, "Then I’ll call her to come home."
It’s just right to ask whether those bad relationships are real.
The Immortal Fox heard her speak and became anxious instead,
"When the adults ask you to visit, you should go yourself. What does calling her home mean?"
Her voice grew heavy, losing the warmth from earlier, now carrying a sense of authority.
Both the middle-aged mother and the audience in the live broadcast paused, with the former nodding quickly, while the latter remained curious about what the Immortal Fox had just said—[Adults]?
[Did the Immortal Fox just call her Adults? Wow, my daughter is incredible.]
[Excited, does this mean Scarlett is a notable figure within the out-of-body fairy setting?]
[Is it possible that she’s not only prominent in the out-of-body fairy setting but throughout the Mystical Sect as well?]
The comment section buzzed with discussions; those familiar with Scarlett knew she never spoke nonsense.
Even though it was Amber Livingston’s spotlight, Scarlett suddenly suggested her to bring the matter home. There must be something she had perceived.
So, some netizens urged the middle-aged mother to keep the connection open.
They wanted to see more.
The middle-aged mother read the content in the comment section, feeling somewhat uneasy. Thinking of her daughter’s reluctance to confide in the family because she feared being pushed too hard into marriage, she felt both heartache and regret. Determined, she immediately called her husband and son’s voice messages,
"Where are you guys? If you’re not busy, come over and go with me to your sister’s place!"
...
Linn Woods has been quite troubled lately.
Her family constantly urges her to marry, and a newcomer at work often sends her ambiguous messages, asking her out.
Bound by work, she doesn’t want to make things ugly, but the other party is becoming increasingly overbearing, even deliberately getting off at the same station yesterday.
Linn Woods doesn’t want to change jobs, but she’s unsure of how to make him back off.
Distraught, she was heading home. Once she reached her community, she saw her colleague standing under her apartment block, causing her expression to darken, and she turned to leave.
The man quickly caught up with her,
"Linn Woods, why are you leaving? I’ve been waiting for you."
"What do you want? If you have something to say, talk at work on Monday."
Her tone wasn’t good, but the man seemed oblivious, continuing,
"I’ve asked you so many times, and you’re too shy to meet me. As a reserved girl, I had to bring myself here."
Linn Woods’ face turned unpleasant, her voice carrying an edge of agitation,
"I said I don’t want to go out with you, can’t you understand that? Please stop harassing me!"
"You don’t want to go out? Then I can accompany you at home, saying that I don’t even know where you live yet..."
The man reached to grab Linn Woods, whose face changed, just about to scold him, when a familiar voice beat her to it,
"What do you think you’re doing?! Let go of my daughter!"
Linn Woods was taken aback, turning to see her mom holding up her phone, charging towards them with determination, flanked by equally fierce-looking dad and brother.
The three stepped forward, pushing the man aside, firmly shielding her behind them.
"You didn’t want to just invite me, but were too shy, so you invited the whole department?
And when you greeted me, you smiled more brightly than with others! You’re thirty, isn’t it normal to want a relationship and marriage?"
He was just responding to those "signals"!
Now it wasn’t just Linn Woods, but even the viewers almost found his logic laughable out of anger.
[Is this guy sick?]
[Oh no, at that dinner, I ordered milk tea for my friend and her man, by this logic, her man might think I fell for him?]
[I make coffee, I smile at customers every day, am I in danger too?]
[Don’t say that, where is work without craziness, he must have reached an overwhelming point pressure hence hallucinations.]
The middle-aged mother was originally relaying the broadcast with seriousness, and though the phone avoided faces, viewers could clearly see the bodily movements.
Having heard the man’s words, she immediately dropped her phone and stepped forward to curse him,
"Whoever said thirty means you have to consider marriage and relationship? My daughter would never consider someone like you!
Get lost! Otherwise, I’ll go to your workplace and talk to your boss, and ask your family how they raised their son?!"
Perhaps her threats hit a sensitive point, as the previously righteous man seemed deflated, no longer daring to argue, sincerely apologizing to Linn Woods, promising not to message her privately again.
Seeing the man scuttle away, Linn Woods couldn’t hold back her tears, rushing forward to hug her mother, her voice choking,
"Mom..."
Her mother’s heart ached, but her mouth reprimanded,
"Enough, what’s there to cry about? How useless...."
Despite scolding, her hand holding the phone gently patted her younger daughter’s back for comfort.
Live viewers listened with empathy but didn’t forget to comment,
[A, Auntie... stop patting her, we’re almost dizzy from watching you.]
