Chapter 326 - What A Hoodoo
In the hotel room, Yu Luoluo was firmly tied to a chair to prevent her from not cooperating.
Yu Luoluo’s eyes burned with fire as she glared at Ling Tianya lounging on the sofa. “Ling, just what do you want!”
Ling Tianya watched Yu Luoluo as she fumed. “Speak! Just what had happened for you to hate the Ling family so much?”
Yu Luoluo scoffed, unimpressed, and remained uncooperative.
“Not speaking?” Ling Tianya smiled mischievously, taking a mango from the fruit plate. “I remember you were allergic to mangos. As soon as you touch a mango, you’ll break out in rashes all over and you’ll itch like crazy.”
Ling Tianya brought the mango closer to Yu Luoluo then, scaring her out of her wits and making her shake her head like mad. “As I said, everyone in the Ling family are devils!”
Ling Tianya put down the mango then. “You say that I’m the devil, but you should at least let me know what I did that was deserving of the name?”
Yu Luoluo raised her head, looking suspiciously at Ling Tianya. “You really don’t know?”
“I really don’t.”
Yu Luoluo stared at her, as though trying to determine whether she was lying or not. She eventually gave a weak sigh and began to explain, “Ever since Aunt’s, which is your mom’s, situation had blown up, the Ling family had broken off all contact with us. Granny had wanted to go look for you several times, wanting to know whether you were alright, but your father was extremely strict, and your old hag of a grandmother had been screaming at her too. Granny was too tired to deal with it, and she only got over it after many, many years. Granny had always kept you on her mind, wondering whether you’re living well, whether you were bullied. For all these years, you have been on her mind. But you? You didn’t come to see her once, not even once! Do you know how upset Granny is about it?”
Faced with Yu Luoluo’s accusations, Ling Tianya got a little choked out. She felt like her niece was taking a knife to her heart each time she thought about what her Grandmother looked like, screaming for her.
Seeing how Ling Tianya’s eyes turned red, Yu Luoluo scoffed. “Tch, just crocodile tears.”
“Continue!” Ling Tianya picked up the mango again, threatening Yu Luoluo.
Yu Luoluo again became afraid at the sight of the mango, and so she continued, “I wouldn’t call you guys devils just for breaking off all connections with us, it wasn’t horrible, since Aunt was the one at fault. My mom finally remarried a few years ago. This man had wooed my mom for a long time. My mom had been raising me by herself all these year, and she’d suffered through so many tough times and so much criticism. Finally, a man showed up that would woo her persistently and treat all of us well. So, my mom agreed to marry him.
But we didn’t expect for him to do a complete 180 after marriage. Drinking, prostitution, gambling, he’s done all of it. He’d even hit and screamed at my mother. This man is no one else other than your step-mother’s ex-husband, Huang Dawei!”
“Huang Dawei!” Hearing the familiar name, Ling Tianya was surprised too.
“Heh, my mom didn’t know about Huang Dawei’s real identity until after the marriage. It was only after their marriage did Huang Dawei convince my mother to sell away her house and for the two of them to buy a bigger one together. My mom had thought that Huang Dawei had done it genuinely for her own good, so she agreed. But the moment the new house was in their hands, Huang Dawei changed.
My mom wanted to file for divorce, and so he threatened to chase our family out just because his name was written as a co-owner. He even said that his ex-wife was your father’s current wife, and everything that he was doing was according to your father’s wishes, and if we were not happy with it, we could go fight it out with your father. Once, my mother couldn’t take it anymore and really wanted to find your father to hash it out. But the moment she stepped out of the door, she got into a car accident, and the driver that caused the accident is still unable to be found today. Huang Dawei said that the driver was hired by the Ling family, just to warn us!”
