Chapter 534: Yearning but Unfulfilled

Blind obsession!

Lu Shufen couldn’t hold back anymore, and a slap flew across!

Smack!

Chiang Qing’s fair cheek immediately showed the imprint of five fingers, as she covered her face in shock and looked at her mother.

"Mom!"

"Don’t call me!" Lu Shufen, in pain from anger, shouted, "I don’t have such a foolish and stupid daughter!"

She had said so much, used both hard and soft tactics, all just to pull this girl back from the edge of a cliff, but to no avail, as if everything she said was in one ear and out the other!

This daughter of hers wanted to follow in the footsteps of that cheap scoundrel and infuriate her to death!

"Your father and I put so much effort into raising and educating you, and it wasn’t to teach you to steal someone else’s husband. What’s so good about that boy that you don’t even care about your face anymore, huh?" Lu Shufen raged, "Does he have an extra pair of horns on his head that you’re so headstrong about him?"

The more she thought, the angrier she became. She went to the table to find the phone book, muttering, "I have to see what kind of creature he is to dare seduce my daughter. I’m going to ask his superiors, what kind of scum this is, fire him, get him fired!"

She pulled out the phone book, found a number, and was about to dial the phone beside the sofa when Chiang Qing rushed over and pressed her mother’s hand down, crying, "Mom, please don’t, I love him, I really love him!"

"Get lost!"

"Mom, I’m begging you. You were young once, your heart has raced before, how can you not understand your daughter’s heart? When you were lovesick and couldn’t have what you yearned for, the torment, you must know it better than anyone!" Chiang Qing cried, "In those difficult times, you and Dad made it through, now the times are so open, why can’t we make it through? If need be, we’ll fly far away, as long as he is with me."

The taste of unrequited love, how could Lu Shufen not know it?

Looking at her daughter’s tear-stained face, a pang of pain struck her heart, as the days and nights she spent weeping in the past suddenly resurfaced.

It’s too hard!

Lu Shufen dropped the phone, pulled her daughter close, and said, "Qingqing, that’s too hard, it’s not worth it, really not worth it! He doesn’t love you, it’s pointless. Qingqing, a short pain is better than a long one, listen to your mother, take your heart back!"

"Mom, I can’t, I just can’t!"

"How can you not? How long have you been with him to feel so deeply already?" Lu Shufen was incredulous.

"Mom, you don’t understand, some feelings, you know, last a lifetime at first glance, unrelated to time, my whole heart is full of him!" Chiang Qing wept.

Qi Taiguo’s coldness towards her, his heartlessness, and the smiles he once showed her, were all like poppy flowers, addictive to her.

It had nothing to do with how long they had been together; she just felt that the only person in her heart was him; no one else could enter!

"Mom, in here, it’s barren because of him, nothing else can grow!" Chiang Qing cried, clutching at her chest.

Lu Shufen was dumbfounded.

She had never imagined her girl would fall so deeply!

What could be done now? If Qi Taiguo had feelings for her, that would be easier to handle, but now, it was clearly just her daughter’s one-sided love. If a bull doesn’t drink water, can you force its head down?

Unrequited love, unrequited love!

Lu Shufen thought of herself in the past, then her current situation with Jiang Dafang being a thorn in her side nearby, and suddenly she was overwhelmed with sadness and embraced her daughter, crying together.

"Why is our mother and daughter’s fate so hard?"

Jiang Conghe was drawn from his study by their crying. Seeing the mother and daughter crying bitterly, he asked, "What happened? Has the sky fallen?"

Lu Shufen looked over, her gaze forlorn, Old Chiang, our excellent daughter, I’m afraid she’s ruined!
