Chapter 1415: I Only Want You (113)

Jing Chu, Qiao An, and Fat Lass could not believe their ears at all.

“Is Jing Chu the child you had with the man whom you had eloped with back then?”

Li Wanru admitted to it.

“You… you’re that mother of mine who sold me to those thugs for money? So you’re the one who abandoned me and left me to fend for myself, thus causing me to be subjected to torment and hardship ever since I was a child. You’re the one who caused me to almost lose my life after being set on fire by those people who wanted to sacrifice me as an offering! Why aren’t you dead yet? How are you still alive and well? Don’t you feel uneasy or guilty at all? You were the one who assisted Sis Qiao An’s ex-husband in framing her and sending her to prison, aren’t you? Have you finished serving your jail term? Why weren’t you executed to death instead!?!” Jing Chu snapped angrily, glaring daggers at the woman whom she resented greatly. She wished she could just kill her.

Li Wanru turned as pale as a sheet upon the sight of her eyes that were filled with fury and exasperation.

Qiao An never thought that Jing Chu would be her half-sister.

It had never crossed her mind at all.

She said, “She was initially sentenced to a two-year jail term. However, she was given credit for her good behavior in prison and was granted an early release.”

Jing Chu said coldly, “Is that so? I’m here to bid you goodbye, Sis Qiao An. We’ll meet again if fate allows.”

“Where are you going?” asked Qiao An, who was filled with a mix of emotions after finding out all of a sudden that Jing Chu turned out to be her sister.

“To a safe place.”

Li Wanru exclaimed, “I know I’ve failed as a mother and I don’t deserve to be called your mother either, but your father is far worse than I am! He was the one who abandoned us and left me with no choice but to get rid of you because I couldn’t take you back with me to R Nation.”

“How unlucky of Sis Qiao An and me to have a mother like you. There are so many great mothers in this world, yet we had to end up being born to one like you. Stop creating excuses for yourself. You’re just a selfish woman. I’ll never be grateful to you for giving birth to me because you didn’t perform your duties as my mother at all. You were irresponsible and self-centered. It’s destined that I’ll never acknowledge you as my mother for the rest of my life. As for that scumbag who abandoned you and me, I have no interest in finding out who he is,” Jing Chu said bluntly, feeling nothing but hatred for her mother.

Despite Jing Chu stating clearly that she did not wish to know about her father, Li Wanru still told her, nonetheless.

“Your father is no ordinary man. I hope you’ll understand that. He was a very charming man and you resemble him greatly. However, he was already a married man, and I eloped with him out of recklessness. He discovered only later that his wife and children mattered to him the most. Hence, he decided to abandon us because we didn’t have a proper status.”

Jing Chu found the two of them to be utterly shameless and obnoxious.

“What do you mean he’s not ordinary?” she scoffed.

“He can communicate with animals.”

“Such people actually exist in this world? Unfortunately, I didn’t inherit those superior genes from him.”

Li Wanru nodded and said, “You must have inherited mine, then.”

“Please don’t mention that so casually. It makes me feel so repulsed and it utterly disgusts me.” Jing Chu looked at Qiao An and said, “Sis Qiao An, may I speak to you in private?”

Qiao An agreed with a nod and brought her to the bedroom.

They closed the door.

Taking a close look at Jing Chu, whom she had not seen in a long time, Qiao An remarked, “You’ve gotten darker and healthier than before.”

“Yes, I’ve grown to like suntanning.”

“Are you leaving R Nation?”

Jing Chu explained, “I’ll be going to a faraway place. I haven’t been contacting you for such a long time because I was afraid that my status would affect you negatively and cause you to feel burdened. By the way, Pei Yi has decided to withdraw from DK and we’re intending to spend the rest of our lives uprightly in peace. I may never get to see you again from now on, so you and Mr. Su must continue to live in bliss. I hope you’ll give birth to a healthy baby too. I’ll live well myself. If you don’t hear any news about Pei Yi, it means we’re doing well in a safe place.”

Qiao An held her hand and said, “I feel so ashamed and guilty for failing to contact you first even though you’re so considerate toward me. Jing Chu, promise me that you will live well like you said you would. As for our mother, I’ve decided not to acknowledge her. I was intending to make things clear to her today. How about you?”

“Me too. Sis, I share similar sentiments as you. I don’t need a selfish mother like her who would sacrifice her own children for the sake of her own interests.”

Qiao An removed the gold bangle from her wrist and placed it inside Jing Chu’s hand. “This isn’t worth much but keep it as a memento. It’s a gift from me to you, Sis.”

Jing Chu accepted it. She was filled with emotions after finding out that her close friend turned out to be her half-sister.

However, she would be beginning life anew from now on.

“By the way, Sis Xiong Mingming who was our fellow inmate has also been released for a while now. She began life afresh with a man whom she had met at a blind date and is now married too.”

“Oh, that sounds great.”

The two of them exited the bedroom while Li Wanru was still in the living room.

Li Wanru stared at Jing Chu, seemingly trying to tell her something. However, Jing Chu ignored her and disregarded her presence completely.

Noticing the sullen expression on Li Wanru’s face, Qiao An said, “Leave. Don’t come here ever again.”

“I’ve already divorced Xi Changzhi’s father. There’s nowhere for me to go now.”

Qiao An said bluntly, “That’s none of my business. If you expect your children to be filial to you, you ought to behave and conduct yourself in a manner that’ll earn their respect. Don’t throw your weight around just because you’re an elder. You should really be reflecting on your own actions and mistakes.”

Despite feeling extremely regretful and knowing that she had committed grave mistakes in the past, there was no turning back for her and no way to redeem herself regardless of what she says now.

“Is Jing Chu leaving this place? Where is she going?”

“No idea. We might never get to see each other again. It all depends on fate. You should really leave,” said Qiao An, who was exhausted due to her pregnancy.

“Did you request for your assets to be returned to you from my account? I have nothing to my name and I’m penniless now. How am I supposed to continue living?”

“Like I said, it’s none of my business.”

“Qiao An, I’m your mother. Do you really want to see me ending up as a beggar? Do you want the media to report about your unfilial ways?”

Qiao An grabbed her wallet and handed her a wad of hundred-dollar bills before saying, “You’ve long overwritten the credit that you deserved for giving birth to me by committing all those misdeeds. This is all I can give you for the very last time. I don’t want to see you ever again. Whether you become a beggar or not in the future has nothing to do with me.”

Li Wanru left after accepting the money.

When she exited, she thought to herself, If only I had treated one of my daughters well. Had I done so, I definitely wouldn’t have ended up in such a sorry plight today.

However, I did not put in any effort to raise them at all. I even ended up harming them.

But what’s the point of regretting it now?
