Chapter 278: Domineering

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Huo You had lived with Ding Rong for many years. Even though she had long hated life in the urban village, Huo You had to admit that she knew Ding Rong very well.

Take this moment, for example, Huo You could sense from Ding Rong’s slight frown and her faint sigh that she disliked the Huo couple and felt pity for her.

Perhaps, that gaze still carried concern and worry for her?

At the thought of this possibility, Huo You’s heart ached and she subconsciously avoided Ding Rong’s gaze.

Ding Rong also understood the child she had raised. She had a strong personality. Even when her family was at the lowest financial stage when she was young, Huo You had never revealed her distressed side in school.

Therefore, Ding Rong didn’t say anything. She only shook her head slightly and said to Huo You, “Wait here for a while. I’ll go call Tiantian out. You can talk to her yourself.”

On the first day of the holiday, Huo Tian was fiddling around with things in her workshop. Her fair cheeks were stained with black motor oil, and her hair was messy. However, Ding Rong did not despise her child at all.

Huo Tian became wary and nervous when she heard that Huo You had come to look for her and had even met Ding Rong. She didn’t understand Huo You’s intentions at all. “Mom, why did she come to look for you? Did she regret staying in the Huo Family and want to come back to be your child? I definitely won’t agree with that. Mom, I forbid you to treat her well!”

Her hands were covered in dirt. She grabbed Ding Rong’s arm and stained her clothes too.

Ding Rong did not blame Huo Tian. She only looked at her dotingly and helplessly. “Tiantian, don’t let your thoughts run wild. The moment I knew that the two of you were brought back by the wrong families by mistake, I stopped treating her as my own daughter. When you took the initiative to return to my side, you became my only child.”

Huo Tian’s words just now were due to her possessiveness, but she had also come back to her senses now. Ding Rong was not a saint who would randomly spread kindness. She was kind but had principles. How could she possibly acknowledge Huo You, who only yearned for a rich life?

Because of her childish behavior just now, Huo Tian was a little embarrassed. She stuck out her tongue, shook Ding Rong’s arm, and said in a spoiled tone, “Mom, I just love you too much, so I’m worried that Huo You will snatch you away. It’s not that I want to occupy all of Mom’s love. If you and Dad give birth to another child, I’ll definitely be a good sister.”

Ding Rong smiled helplessly. “Don’t be ridiculous. I know you don’t like Huo You, and I won’t ask you to accept her apology. It’s just that I heard that she was forced by her biological parents to come and apologize to you. Thinking back to how you led such a life when you were in the Huo Family, I felt a little sad.”

The smile on her face disappeared and she sighed slowly. “Such people are not suitable to raise a child at all, but they chose to be parents. I’m really glad that Huo You took the initiative to return to the Huo Family back then, ending the torment you suffered in the Huo Family.”

Although Ding Rong sympathized with Huo You’s situation, she was more concerned about her biological daughter. After Huo Tian’s identity was exposed, she had left the parents who would only bring pressure and torment to their child. Huo Tian understood what Ding Rong meant and felt very happy. She no longer felt the strong aversion to meeting Huo You.

Huo Tian couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to her appearance just to see Huo You. She washed her hands hastily, didn’t even comb her hair, and walked out the door in a loosely-fitting sports attire that was neither new nor old.

Ding Rong had wanted to go shopping for groceries, but she had been held back by Huo You for a while. Therefore, she didn’t stay at home to listen to Huo Tian and Huo You’s conversation. More importantly, she didn’t want to affect Huo Tian’s attitude towards Huo You here.

As a mother, Ding Rong was unwilling to let Huo Tian suffer any grievances.
