Chapter 12: Not to be Mentioned Together

tly asked: "Ajing's socializing finished""Hmm! I have to finish my meal quickly, he'll be here later to pick me up and take me home!" Tong Yimo put down her phone, picked up her bowl and chopsticks, a..."You're overthinking it. I just can't stand He Mingxu." Ma Zhijie replied calmly.

Fang Haobo and Zhang Haichang smiled at each other knowingly.

Let's just be careful and discreet, okay

Home should be the warmest place.

But for Liang Yimo, her home was so cold.

When Liang Ma saw Liang Yimo trudging back from Linhai City with a suitcase, she wasn't concerned at all. Instead, she mocked her, saying, “With that worthless degree of yours, you think you can make it in a big city You’re completely overestimating yourself!”

"Mom, I haven't graduated yet, I don't have a diploma, that's why it's hard to find a job!" Liang Yimo retorted.

Liang Ma still had a look of disdain on her face: "I think you should just drop out after your sophomore year. Anyway, it's a waste of money to continue studying. Even if you get your diploma, so what It's just an associate's degree. Which company in the big city would even look at you"

Liang Ma's words were sharp, piercing Liang Yi Mo's heart. She didn't want to argue with her mother anymore. She grabbed her suitcase and walked upstairs, ignoring her.

She knew she shouldn't have come back!

"What are you so arrogant about You're not even half as good as Mengmeng! And don't expect me and your dad to pay for your sophomore year of college anymore!"

Behind her, Liang's mother poured cold water on the situation.

Mengmeng is who She's Liang Yimò's cousin, and also a rich heiress. She's very much loved by Liang Ma, even, Liang Yimò has the feeling that Tong Mengmeng is her biological daughter, while she, Liang Yimò, is adopted.

Liang Yimo slammed the door shut, tears welling up in her eyes. She didn't even feel like going out for dinner.

Outside the door, one could still hear Liang Ma nagging at Liang Ba: "This little brat Yimo is really a waste of raising! Look at our Mengmeng, she attends a top-tier university abroad and gets first-class scholarships every semester! She's both prestigious and respectable! That little brat Yimo isn't half as good as Mengmeng!"

“Yimò’s doing great in school, she gets first-place scholarships every semester! So honey, just hold your tongue. Mengmèng is Yimò’s cousin after all. Your sister married better than you, and her family is wealthier than ours. How can the two children even be compared” Liang’s father said impatiently.

Liang Ma retorted with conviction, "Why can't they be compared Yimo's scholarship from a third-rate university is no match for Mengmeng's from a first-rate one. Tell me, even though they were born on the same day, in the same month, and in the same hospital, how could there be such a huge difference"

But the difference is normal, after all, this girl Ai Mo isn't...

"Honey, in fact, Emi is not…"

Father Liang was about to speak but stopped himself, interrupting Mother Liang's train of thought.

Liang Ma was suddenly sensitive. Could her husband also know about what Yimo had done

Liang Dad immediately changed the subject, expressing his heartache: "Yimo didn't do poorly in her studies. It was the year she took the college entrance exam. She spent her study time taking care of me and working part-time to make money for my medical expenses because I fell ill. That's why she failed the exam!"

Liang Ma instantly felt relieved, answering nonchalantly: "Taking care of you is what she should do as my daughter! Otherwise, I truly would have raised her for nothing these eighteen years!"

Look, her mother is so indifferent to her.

During these days Liang Yimo spent at home, she was subjected to her mother's cold and sarcastic remarks every day.

No matter how hard she worked at home, doing laundry, cooking, helping out, and taking care of the family's medicine cabinet, her mother always had endless complaints and grievances against her.

That evening, during dinner, Liang Ma suddenly brought up Su Manxue.

"Yi Mo! Su Manxue and you are college classmates, right!" Liang Ma said while stuffing food into her mouth with chopsticks, "I heard that Su Manxue got a boyfriend in Linhai City who is incredibly rich. His monthly allowance to her is hundreds of thousands! Now, Su Manxue not only bought a three-story house with a storefront for her grandparents and grandmother here in our small town, but also built a four-story villa in our village. I heard it even has a garden and orchard in front and a pond and vegetable garden in the back!"

Liang Ma said with envy, her eyes were red.

Liang Yimo's eating motion paused for a moment, then she suddenly remembered something. She quickly put on a nonchalant expression and continued to eat as if nothing had happened.

She knew Su Manxue suddenly had a fiancé and was getting married, but she didn't expect that Su Manxue's fiancé was so wealthy, wealthy enough to give Su Manxue tens of thousands of yuan in monthly pocket money.

Su Man Xuehuaqian has always been extravagant. This monthly expense of several hundred thousand yuan must be easily spent by her, Su Manxue.

“I’m telling you, Yimo! You don’t look any worse than Su Manxue. How can your vision be so much worse than hers What’s so good about He Mingxu Isn't he just the only one in our village who got into Liming City University as an undergraduate His family is so poor that they are practically dying! The tuition for his university was even helped out by the village. He isn't even a fraction as good as Su Manxue’s boyfriend. I really don't know what you see in him, wanting to marry him after graduation and take care of his parents, and his aging and sickly grandparents!” Liang Ma started rambling again.

As soon as she heard the name He Mingxu, Liang Yimo suddenly flew into a rage and slammed her bowls and chopsticks onto the table, startling both Liang's father and mother.

"I've broken up with him, are you satisfied now!" Liang Yimo said through tears, her voice choked with resentment.

Liang's mother immediately flared up and angrily scolded Liang Yimo viciously: "You little brat! What are you yelling about You're so disrespectful! Your breakup is none of my business! What qualifications do you have to yell at me"

"Honey, just say less!" Dad Liang sighed and said earnestly.

Actually, compared to He Mingxu's family, her Liang Yimo's family wasn't much better either.

Her mother ran the family's small pharmacy on the ground floor of their house in this town. Her father had difficulty walking and stayed at home, helping out by sitting behind the counter in the pharmacy, collecting money and giving change.

Besides, because of Dad's leg injury, our family also owes some debts to relatives and friends.

As for her brother...

Although I work outside the home, I still have to ask my family for money every month.

When the topic reached this point, Liang Ma let out a sigh of relief, her tone softening slightly. She glanced at Liang Yimo and continued, "You're best friends with Su Manxue, aren't you Go talk to her, ask her to help you out financially, give you some money to finish your university studies."

"Mom, what are you talking about" Liang Yimo was instantly angry.
