C607 Happiness and Harm
Ma Guifaang didn't even need to ask anything. She only needed to look at the situation and she would understand it all!
Mo Qianni's heart skipped a beat when she heard her mother's words. Feeling that something was wrong, she forced a smile and asked, "Mom, have you seen Auntie Guo before?"
Ma Guifaang shot a cold glance at her daughter. With a stern look on her face, she said, "We've met before, and we even called each other sisters."
Mo Qianni felt as if she had fallen into an icehouse. Only when she was young did she encounter her mother in such a state. She had been caught stealing other people's melons when she was young. Her mother was as cold and fierce as she was now!
This was the state of anger that Ma Guifaang would show only when she was truly angered!
"Don't be like this …" Mo Qianni trembled slightly as she lowered her head, not daring to look at her mother.
Yang Chen also realized that something was wrong. Guo Xuehua had already known Ma Guifaang for a long time, and looking at his mother-in-law's fierce expression, could it be …
"Sis Ma, listen to my explanation …"
"Don't explain!"
Ma Guifaang cut Guo Xuehua off with a stern voice, "I was just saying, why are they so intimate, but they don't dare to talk about marriage, they don't even talk about family members. So it's because they don't dare to talk about marriage, they can't!"
Guo Xuehua wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say.
"Sister Xuehua, your son Yang Chen is already married. You still came to see me and discuss the marriage of our children. Are you messing with me?" Ma Guifaang's face turned red from anger. "I, Ma Guifaang, am not a woman from a wealthy family. I don't have any culture nor culture, but I know what the word 'shame' means. Don't you have any shame, no laws in your eyes!?"
"Mom, don't be angry. Actually, things …"
"Shut up!" Ma Guifaang immediately stopped Mo Qianni from speaking and said with her eyes wide open, "Mo Qianni, are you trying to anger me to death!? I gave birth to you, and raised you, so that you could be someone else's mistress!? What kind of man are you looking for that makes you want to steal a husband from another woman!? Do you know who his wife is!? It was Lin Elder President's granddaughter, Lin Ruoxi! The granddaughter of your benefactor! Your good sister Lin Ruoxi! You even want to touch Lin Ruoxi's husband, do you still have any conscience!? "
Mo Qianni's eyes reddened as tears flowed from her eyes. Ma Guifaang's words were like countless poisonous thorns that pierced the most tender part of her heart.
Of course she knew it was wrong of her to be a mistress, and of course she knew it was wrong to touch Lin Ruoxi's husband. She also knew that doing so would only disappoint her mother.
But she had already done so, hadn't she?
When love came, there was no way for her to stop it. She had tried her best and struggled, but by chance, she failed and thus, these things happened.
She had also asked herself, if Lin Ruoxi and Yang Chen weren't contracted to be married, if she had an excuse, would she have had a relationship with Yang Chen like a moth to a flame?
The answer was yes, she couldn't deceive herself about Yang Chen. She couldn't imagine what it would be like if Yang Chen rejected her.
If this happened, she would definitely suffer and be injured. However, she was more willing to believe that all of this was worth it.
This was how she constantly consoled herself and encouraged herself. Mo Qianni dared to bring Ma Guifaang to see Guo Xuehua, but... Before the conversation had even begun, Ma Guifaang had already exposed all of her beautiful fantasies!
"Mom, I know I'm in the wrong …" Mo Qianni sobbed as her body felt like it was about to collapse. "I know I let Ruoxi down, but I just …"
"You don't need to say anymore. Come back with me right now and I'll pretend like nothing happened. Otherwise …" Ma Guifaang showed no sign of softening her heart as she said, "You can choose on your own. Do you want this mother of yours or do you want to continue being a third party?"
The meaning of her words was that if she did not sever her relationship with Yang Chen — she would sever the relationship between mother and daughter!
Mo Qianni's face instantly turned pale, and her tears also stopped. She doubted that she had heard wrongly, but looking at Ma Guifaang's serious and strict expression, she knew that Ma Guifaang wasn't joking.
Yang Chen's heart was in his throat. Seeing Mo Qianni crying silently, he clenched his fists tightly.
Ma Guifaang was the one who made Mo Qianni cry like that. However, Yang Chen couldn't be like how he treated others to help Mo Qianni vent her anger — he beat them half to death or just removed their names from his list.
It was Mo Qianni's mother, her elder, and it was indeed his fault.
Yang Chen could only endure it. He walked up and said in a low voice, "Mom …"
"Don't call me Mom!" Ma Guifaang glared at Yang Chen fiercely, like an angry female leopard, "I'm not worthy for you to call me mother, I also don't want to have a son-in-law like you! Yang Chen, as an elder, I kindly advise you to be honest and live your life with your wife! Don't mess with other girls outside!
I know you may have money, I know you may be very capable!
But no matter how much money you have and how much ability you have, you can't give happiness to different women at the same time! Because when you accepted different women, you hurt the woman who was with you the most! "
Yang Chen was speechless. He couldn't say a single thing that he wanted to ask for.
Ma Guifaang had never read any books or seen much of the world. However, the vicissitudes of life she had experienced and the warmth she felt from others, allowed her to have unimaginable wealth in her life.
Her words were like a tranquilizer, extinguishing all of the hope in Yang Chen's head.
Guo Xuehua, who stood there without moving, could only silently lower her head. She was also a mature woman, and she knew that there was no way she could refute Ma Guifaang.
Guo Xuehua already had the worst feeling in her heart. Perhaps she shouldn't have come to help Yang Chen from the beginning, because this wasn't a matter of whether there was a phenomenon or not. It was just that everything was a mistake.
Ma Guifaang breathed heavily and looked at Guo Xuehua and Yang Chen meaningfully at last. She turned around and said to Mo Qianni who had lost her wits, "Girl, don't be so stubborn. Mom won't hurt you. Let's go, this place shouldn't have come."
Mo Qianni didn't say a word. She bit her lips tightly as tears flowed down her white face, and her makeup blossomed.
"What, you're not leaving, okay …" Ma Guifaang nodded and said mournfully, "It seems that you want to be someone else's lover — not even your own mother anymore. I'll drag you down, I'm an old woman who has no status, no status, and no money. Who would want me as their mother …"
"No!" Mo Qianni suddenly shook her head and quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Mom, that's not what I meant. Don't be angry, I'll go with you …"
Ma Guifaang then felt a sense of relief as she caressed Mo Qianni's face, saying with a pained expression, "Since things have come to this, let's call it quits. When we get home, I'll pretend like nothing happened. Even if you don't marry for the rest of your life, Mom won't want you to become a third party, you know?"
Mo Qianni numbly nodded her head. She couldn't figure out any other thoughts at all.
Ma Guifaang smiled and pulled Mo Qianni's hand before turning around and leaving.
Yang Chen wanted to ask her to stay, but he was stopped by Guo Xuehua who walked over to his side.
"Don't go." Guo Xuehua grabbed Yang Chen's hand and shook her head, "Sister Ma is a straightforward person, you being so aggressive will only make her angrier. We owe the mother and daughter a debt. Even if you want to save them, you can wait until Sis Ma's anger is gone. "
Yang Chen smiled bitterly, "Is there still a chance to save them?"
"I don't know." Guo Xuehua sighed, "It still depends on how much you can do. Yang Chen, I really can't get more involved with this or your relationship. I can be deaf and blind, but I can't help you. I hope you don't blame me."
Yang Chen nodded stiffly, "I am grateful for that."
