Chapter 293 Apologize To Miss Tang (1/2)
Lu AnLing did not plan on staying with her mother for long, mostly after she noticed that she was easily beginning to forgive her mother for what she had done in the past.
It was strange and most probably wrong, but Lu AnLing did not want to forgive her mother. At least not quite yet. The woman should wallow a bit in her guilt and truly understand her wrongdoings. Due to Lu Xiaoling's actions, in the past, Lu AnLing had almost succeeded in killing herself, after all.
But the more Lu AnLing spent time with the woman, the more Lu AnLing's heart began to hurt when she saw her mom with a crestfallen expression.
Tired and sad of seeing it, Lu AnLing said, ”Uncle Shen and Jun were talking last time about Yuxi having a play date with Mei Xue, and Mingyu. I think we should do it soon. I want to get to know my daughter, and I'm sure Jun wants to also.”
Hearing this, Lu Xiaoling nodded. ”That's a good idea. I'll ask Shen when he will have time to take them to you. Or do you want to have it in the Lu family home?”
Lu AnLing shook her head. ”It'll be at Jun and my home. No offence but, I don't plan on stepping foot in that house ever again. This I promise you. I don't plan on getting close to the relatives either.”
As soon as Lu AnLing had said this, Lu Xiaoling nodded. She knew that when Lu AnLing made promises she always kept her word and there was no changing her mind.
Lu Xiaoling could not do anything but sigh. ”Alright, but what about your brother and sister? Will you never see them again?”
”I'll keep in touch with them, of course. Duyi is my heart and Shuya, will always be my sister...” Lu AnLing said as she looked down at the wine glass in front of her mother.
It was a blood red liquid which reminded Lu AnLing of blood. And in her mind, Lu AnLing couldn't help but think,
'I won't turn my back on my siblings... they're my blood....'
”I'm glad.” As she said this, Lu Xiaoling's expression softened. The woman was glad that her children had each other to rely on if anything happened and as the older sister, Lu Xiaoling hoped that if anything ever happened, Lu AnLing would take care of her siblings. Lu Xiaoling knew this was unfair to wish for, but she couldn't help herself.
In the end, she could not give them the love they needed but she hoped that they could give this to each other.
Hearing Lu Xiaoling, say this, Lu AnLing could hear a strangeness in her voice. It was as if Lu Xiaoling was washing her hands clean of Lu AnLing, Lu Shuya and Lu Duyi and the possibility of this, which Lu AnLing found in Lu Xiaoling's tone, annoyed the girl.
So Lu AnLing swiftly moved to point an accusing finger at her mother. How dare she think that she could just leave her younger siblings to her and not take responsibility as their mother?!
Lu AnLing was going to give Lu Xiaoling a pierce of her mind but then, without meaning to, Lu AnLing's hand hit the wine bottle on the table, which caused it to topple over.
As if the glass fell in slow motion, Lu AnLing and Lu Xiaoling looked at it with complete and utter horror as if came crashing onto the floor.
Then, they both heard a voice shriek.
Close to their table, a woman in a pale green dress who had been walking to the bathroom was staring down at the stain on her dress.
”Are you serious?!” Tang Yiling screamed with complete annoyance.
