“They are here to catch you!” Song Yiyan saw her jump excitedly and laughed gloatingly. “But how did your dad know that your mom was coming?”

Ling Sheng’s face darkened as she frantically put on her clothes. She gritted her teeth and glared at her. “How would I know?”

“Why are you glaring at me? Why are you being so fierce to me? Will your mother go back just because you’re angry at me?” Song Yiyan sat on the bed and crossed her legs as she scrolled through Weibo with interest. “I say, your father still has his sights set on your mother. It’s been so many years, but he knew immediately when your mother reached China. How do you think he found out?”

Ling Sheng was not in the mood to pay attention to her. She was angered by her incessant laughter. “Perhaps my parents have awakened!”

“Impossible!” Song Yiyan pouted with certainty.

“How do you know that it’s impossible? Only you’re allowed to awaken, but not others?” Ling Sheng rolled her eyes at her.

Song Yiyan laughed out loud when she saw how anxious she was. She scrutinized and pointed at her. “You’re the only one who hasn’t fully awakened after transmigrating through so many worlds. Do you expect your parents to awaken so quickly? Your family’s genes are the reason why they couldn’t have awakened yet.”

Ling Sheng used her death gaze again.

Song Yiyan was afraid of her and raised her hands in surrender. “If your parents have awakened, I am not the charlatan, you’re one instead!”

Sheng Sheng had lost her parents when she was young. She had brought up her younger brother alone, so she must have yearned for kinship. Huo Ci and Nangong Lengyu had truly touched her heart.

Song Yiyan was different. She had never experienced it before, so she was not afraid of losing what she never had and could be cruel to the Song family. It would be best if she never had the chance to experience it in the future.

When their phones rang at the same time, they exchanged glances.

Ling Sheng answered the call. “Mom.”

Song Yiyan hung up the phone without looking at it. Out of sight, out of mind. She threw her phone on the bed and watched with interest as Ling Sheng answered the call.

After Ling Sheng hung up, she raised her eyelids and asked, “Your mother called? What did she say?”

Ling Sheng said, “My mom said that she and Dad will come and pick me up immediately.”

This time, it was Song Yiyan’s turn to lose her cool. She almost choked on the water in her mouth. “Did your parents awaken?”

Ling Sheng nodded. “Yes.”

Song Yiyan looked at her with disdain and said ruthlessly, “So, you’re the most useless person in your family!”

Ling Sheng roared, “Can you speak nicely?”

What did she mean by her being the most useless person? Apart from the memories of the past, she did not forget anything else, unlike her.

“Why are you looking at me?” Song Yiyan felt a little weak under her gaze.

“You have selective amnesia. You forgot your man, while your man lost all his memory. You don’t remember anything, how are you better than me?” Ling Sheng smiled. Come on, let’s continue hurting each other!

While the two of them were quarreling with each other, someone knocked on the door.

Song Yiyan smiled. “Your parents are pretty fast. They’re here already.”

Ling Sheng frowned and was about to open the door. “My mom said that they’re still on the airport’s expressway. They haven’t even entered the fifth intersection yet. It’ll take at least an hour for them to reach!”

Song Yiyan’s pupils constricted as she pulled her back and shushed her, preventing her from making a sound.

After the house became completely quiet, the shouting at the doorstep became clearer. “Yanyan, Yanyan, are you home? Open the door, it’s Mom.”

Ling Sheng glanced at Song Yiyan and asked her to open the door. “Your mother.”

Song Yiyan smirked but didn’t say anything. Her gaze was cold and after giving her a warning look, she lay down on the bed.

Mom? What mother?

Was forcing her daughter to marry a man she did not love for the sake of the family’s interests something a mother would do?

They could not be compared with each other!

Although Ling Sheng had grown up with her adoptive mother, her parents had never forced her to do anything she was unwilling to do. They doted on her.

What about her? She had both parents, and she was their only daughter. She’d thought they loved her dearly and treated her like a precious gem, but instead, she’d been used as a pawn in a scheme.

Therefore, she had never had any extravagant hopes for kinship. It was best not to have any hopes, because after she tore off that gorgeous disguise, her dirty and naked desires would be exposed, bringing more disappointment and hurt.

Ling Sheng heard the person outside shouting and looked at Song Yiyan, who was pretending to sleep with her eyes closed. She did not know how to persuade her.

When she was still a little bunny, she was afraid of her father. However, from her words, she loved her mother very much and cared about her mother. Later on, she agreed to the engagement because of her mother.

But now, she could clearly feel that she was exuding a cold and indifferent mockery.

“Yanyan, I know you’re inside.” Mother Song placed all the things she had brought at the door. Her eyes were red and her voice was hoarse. “I’ve left everything at the door for you. I’m going back.”

She could not leave her house for too long. She did not dare to come out during the day as she was afraid of being discovered by her husband. She could only sneak out at night to see her.

She knew that her daughter hated her because she was useless. She dared not hope for her forgiveness, she just wanted to see her. Her personality was so weak that she had never left her before. She did not even have any money on her, how could she survive alone?

Ling Sheng stood at the door and listened to the sound of things being placed. The footsteps of the woman at the door were very soft and soon disappeared.

“Your mother left.” Seeing that Song Yiyan had no reaction, Ling Sheng leaned against the bed to play games and sighed.

When she opened the door, she saw an envelope stuffed into the gap of the door and there was a stack of money inside of about thirty to forty thousand yuan.

At the door, there were two large plastic bags filled with various snacks and a foam box. It was unknown what was inside.

Song Yiyan looked at Ling Sheng and said casually, “Throw it away.”

Ling Sheng brought everything in. When she opened the foam box, she saw that there were several layers of dumplings. They were frozen, handmade, and beautifully wrapped. “Why did you want to throw them away? I’ll eat them if you don’t want them.”

Song Yiyan smirked and said nonchalantly, “If you want to eat it, take them away later!”

“I am not lacking food.” Ling Sheng looked at her and asked, “You haven’t eaten yet, right? Shall I cook something for you?”

Song Yiyan agreed and continued playing her game.

Ling Sheng placed the money on the table. “Your mother gave it to you.”

Song Yiyan didn’t even look at it, her attention was completely on her phone.. “Got it.”
