MINE ALONE - VOLUME 2 - Season 11 Episode 70

“Let’s go, Senior.” After he finished speaking, Fang Shiyun pulled Qiao Xi away and didn’t even bother to look at the Xia family.

At this moment, the private room was silent. The guests were all stunned for a long time. Yan Jun’s expression was ugly as he gritted his teeth.

As a member of the Painting and Calligraphy Association, he knew that Liang Pingchuan and his senior doted on this young apprentice very much. The two of them had given everything they had learned in their lives to this smart apprentice. Now, for the sake of Fang Shiyun’s fake apprentice, he had offended Qiao Xi.

Just Qiao Xi’s identity alone was enough to make him suffer, let alone Liang Pingchuan and his senior. If the two seniors found out about this, they would definitely expel him from the association.

Yan Jun’s lips were pale, and his back was drenched in sweat. He looked as if he had been fished out of the water. Old Madam Xia was chattering at the side, but he was not in the mood to listen anymore. He felt that he was too stupid. If Fang Shiyun really wanted to take in on apprentice, the people from the Painting and Calligraphy Association would have long received the notice. They would not have been so vague.

Xia Mengyan did not have any talent in calligraphy at all. Those works were probably copied from somewhere. She was not worthy to be Fang Shiyun’s apprentice at all.

He was careless and was actually deceived by the Xia family. If he offended a figure like Qiao Xi, his future might end here.

After a long silence, Xia Yunlou suddenly reacted. She took a deep breath and shouted, “She doesn’t acknowledge me anymore? I’m her biological mother! She dares to not acknowledge me? Bastard! Unfilial daughter! She has always treated Xia Yunqiu as her mother, but I’m the mother who gave birth to her!”

Xia Yunlou sounded like she was about to cry. Her eyes were red, and she looked very crazy. Everyone took a few steps back in fear, their eyes filled with disdain.

There were tears in her eyes as she ran out crazily. A trace of coldness flashed past Xia Ji’s and Old Madam Xia’s eyes, while Xia Mengyan fell heavily into a chair.

At this moment, a portion of the guests had already left. The Xia family could not even take care of themselves. No one cared about Xia Mengyan at all. Her pale lips trembled as she gritted her teeth.

Today’s matter would spread to the public sooner or later. She did not have the ability to make everyone shut up. After the guests left, they would definitely talk about this matter to their relatives and friends. Hence, it would not be long before this matter spread throughout Li City. At that time, how could she continue to stay here?

The apprenticeship banquet was not held successfully and her reputation was ruined. Was she going to watch her future be ruined?

On the other hand, Xia Yunlou ran out without caring about her image and shouted, “Xi Xi! Xi Xi!”

Qiao Xi continued walking forward and paid no attention to her at all.

Xia Yunlou broke down and shouted agitatedly, “Qiao Xi! I’m your biological mother! What right do you have to not acknowledge me?”

Qiao Xi stopped in her tracks, and Xia Yunlou hurriedly rushed forward. Even now, she still did not realize her mistake. She warned angrily, “Let me tell you, today’s matter can’t be spread. Otherwise, the Xia family’s reputation will be ruined!”

Fang Shiyun was furious. For the first time in his life, he had the urge to hit someone.

Xia Yunlou’s tone softened. “It was my fault in the past. When you get home, I’ll make it up to you and treat you and Mengyan equally. Previously, you were jealous that Anran and I had a good relationship. Now that she’s gone, no one will ruin our relationship as mother and daughter. You’re my only daughter. I’ll take care of you wholeheartedly to make up for all the regrets I’ve had all these years. Come back with me, okay?”

Looking at the almost crazy Xia Yunlou, Qiao Xi raised her eyes coldly. “Madam Xia.”

Hearing Qiao Xi’s distant voice, Xia Yunlou’s entire body could not help but tremble as a wave of sorrow surged in her heart. Then, she roared furiously. “Come back with me! You’re my daughter, so you should come home with me! Qiao Xi, you—”

“Do you think I’m a three-year-old child?” Qiao Xi looked at her with a serious expression as if she was sincerely asking Xia Yunlou this question.

“If I were a three-year-old child, I might have been deceived by your lies, but I’m already an adult. Don’t use your excuses to coax me! Only a fool will believe you!”

Xia Yunlou’s body suddenly stiffened. Her hand that was about to pull Qiao Xi froze in midair, and the muscles on her face twitched slightly.

Qiao Xi distanced herself from her, and a trace of disgust appeared in her eyes. She paid no further attention to Xia Yunlou and left mercilessly.

Xia Yunlou stood on the spot and was stunned for a long time before she suddenly broke down and cried. She and Qiao Xi must have been enemies in her previous life. Otherwise, why had she and Qiao Xi been incompatible since they met?
