Chapter 47 - Sowing Discord (1)

Su Xiaofei knew that her mother getting hurt today couldn't be avoided, no matter how much she tried to defend her from Ye Xing and Ye Mingyu earlier. It was destined for Yun Qingrong to discover her husband's betrayal.

When she was about to knock on her mother's door, she heard sobbing sounds coming from the inside, which broke her blackened heart. She knocked once on the door to get her mother's attention.

"Mama, it's me. Can we talk?" She asked in a solemn voice.

She heard a sniff and shuffling sound from the other side of the door before it was slightly opened, revealing Yun Qingrong with a pair of bloodshot eyes.

"Mama!" Su Xiaofei threw her arms around her mother and started crying along with her.

Yun Qingrong was forced to stagger back, allowing her daughter to step inside her room. It broke her heart to see her daughter crying like this, but she was also lost for words on how to placate her Feifei.

The pair chose to slump on the carpeted floor as Yun Qingrong resumed crying along with her daughter. It pained her to know that her husband had lied to her for years. Ye Mingyu was only older than her Feifei by a few months, which meant that she was conceived when she was still dating Su Haoran before.

How could she remain oblivious over the years of their marriage? Her Feifei was right, why did Ye Xing keep to herself and only waited until she got sick to reveal that she had her husband's child?

After crying for a long time, Su Xiaofei finally calmed down and looked at her mother.

"Mama, I'm sorry for what I did earlier. I know my attitude earlier didn't please you, but I couldn't stop myself." She started and with misty eyes, she looked pitifully at her mother. "Mama, I'm so afraid."

Yun Qingrong gave her daughter a weak smile. She suddenly felt exhausted after meeting that pair of mother and child.

"What are you so afraid of?" She asked her daughter gently.

"Mama, I don't want to overthink, but what if… what if that's the reason Papa is giving me a cold shoulder? If he knew about his daughter, perhaps he felt guilty whenever he looked at me."

Yun Qingrong gasped upon hearing Feifei's words. Since when did her daughter realize that her husband was treating her coldly? However, she should have known that Feifei would realize it. After all, her Feifei wasn't that dumb not to notice her father's constant absence.

What should she do? She didn't even have the slightest idea how to face her husband once he returned from his business trip.

"Mama, can I ask you something?" This time, Yun Qingrong noticed that something was wrong with her daughter's tone.

Yun Qingrong took both of Su Xiaofei's hands in hers and placed a gentle kiss on both of her knuckles.

"What is it?" She asked. "If Mama knows the answer, she will definitely tell you."

"Then…" Su Xiaofei chewed her lower lip and glanced at her mother with hesitation in her eyes. "Then Mama, is it true that I am not yours and Papa's real daughter?" She asked in such a low voice, that if Yun Qingrong wasn't next to her daughter, she wouldn't be able to hear it clearly.

The older woman's eyes widened as she stared at her daughter's face in shock.

"Feifei… this… where did you hear it?" She held her daughter's shoulders with both hands, wondering who the hell told her Feifei the truth about her birth.

Su Xiaofei lowered her gaze, hiding the sudden viciousness that appeared in her darkened eyes. She didn't want to lie to her mother, but she could only push the blame to Housekeeper Chen for daring to offend her today.

"Mama, actually the other day… After you talked to Aunty Chen about your decision to give them a chance to stay here, I overheard her conversation with Chen Li when I passed by their quarters. I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but when I heard Chen Li mention my name, I stopped and wondered why she brought up my name. So it turns out…"

This time, she sobbed and tried to dry the tears that escaped her eyes with the back of her hand.

"Aunty Chen and Chen Li were talking about me being arrogant despite not being a real Su. Chen Li said I was just an orphan that has no family in the world, an unwanted child that my own mother discarded and abandoned. Mama, am I really not a Su? I'm not really your daughter? Is that why Papa hates me?" She asked between her sobs.

"No, no, no!" Yun Qingrong shook her head. How could Housekeeper Chen and her daughter be so mean to her Feifei? "That's not true! You are my Feifei regardless if you came from me or not!" She cried out.

"So it's true…" Su Xiaofei laughed pitifully at herself, which broke her mother's heart.

"And now that Papa's real daughter is here, I have no place in this house anymore. No wonder, Chen Li has the audacity to take my things… this… I'm not a Su."

"Who said that I would allow that girl to live with us?! I won't allow anyone to look down on you! You are my daughter! If your papa really wants to support that girl and live with her, our doors are open for him to leave!"

As a person, Yun Qingrong would accept any nasty words being thrown at her, but she would never forgive anyone who demeaned her daughter in front of her. Whether it was her own husband or his relatives, they could all go to hell for all she cared, just leave her Feifei alone!

Yun Qingrong cupped both sides of her poor daughter and cried with her. No wonder her Feifei acted like that earlier.. She must have been really scared.
