Chapter 1039 - Engagement Ceremony (2/2)

Song Yiyan knew that she was right. She had thought about a lot of things recently too, but she just didn’t dare. She was afraid that her father and grandpa would take it out on her mother. “If I leave, what will happen to my mother?”

She didn’t care about anyone but her mother. If she was unwilling and left, she didn’t know what kind of methods her father and the Song Family would use to torture her mother. She could not bear to see her mother suffer because of her.

“What did your mother tell you?” Ling Sheng had known her for more than a day or two. She knew that other than her mother, who truly loved and doted on her, the other male creatures in the Song Family treated the girls at home as tools.

“My mother told me to do what I want and not worry about her.” As Song Yiyan spoke, tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably. Her voice became increasingly hoarse. “But I saw that there are bruises on my mother’s body. My father scolded my mother and hit her in front of me. He said she’s useless and had not taught me well. He also said that if I’m unwilling, he would beat my mother to death.”

Ling Sheng cursed aloud. Is this a father? This is a f*cking abusive scumbag, okay? He had even beaten his wife in front of his daughter to achieve his goal of intimidating her. It seemed like Little White Bunny had been rebelling a lot during this period.

Song Yiyan sniffled and wiped her tears. “Sheng Sheng, it’s not that I don’t want to fight back. If I leave, my mother will suffer on my behalf. I never knew that my father was such a person in the past. In the past, he was very loving with my mother. I don’t know why things have become like this. I think he doesn’t love my mother at all.”

“Don’t cry first.” Ling Sheng could talk about this, but she wasn’t the person involved. She would never be able to understand her feelings. What could she do about the Song Family even if there was domestic abuse?

For a wealthy and powerful family like this, there were so many perverted men that one couldn’t even imagine. When faced with a husband who had power and influence—be it at home or outside—and controlled everything, if one did not want to fall out with him, one could only choose to tolerate it.

Besides, the benefits and interests of such a union between families were complicated. Often, a slight move would affect the whole situation. It was not easy to resolve the conflict.

“Sheng Sheng, what should I do?” Song Yiyan really had no choice left. She wanted to rebel and leave that house forever, but she didn’t want to abandon her mother and watch her suffer in that house for her.

She had complained to Sister Xin Xin. Sister Xin Xin had said that Dongfang Fan was just young and immature. After marriage, he would return to the family. She had told her not to make a fuss and to listen to her family members. Like the people in her family, she wanted her to marry into the Dongfang Family.

“Does your mother’s parental family know about the current situation?” Ling Sheng sighed. As the saying goes, even an upright official finds it difficult to resolve a family dispute. She could only tell Song Yiyan her thoughts, but she couldn’t impose them on her to make her do something. “Yanyan, if I’m the one who encountered such a situation, I would not put myself at the mercy of others. I would leave with my mother, away from that house and that abusive father.”

Domestic violence only happened once or countless times. This kind of scumbag definitely wouldn’t repent. Little White Bunny had seen it now. But before, when she didn’t witness it, who knew how many times her scumbag father had abused her mother!

Ling Sheng made a comparison and suddenly felt very blessed indeed. No matter what, her mother and father were evenly matched. They definitely wouldn’t be so weak as to allow domestic abuse to take place. Although her father’s character was a little hot-tempered, he had never hit them.

“My grandma is still counting on my mother to help them. My uncle’s investment failed recently, so he comes to find my mother every day. My mother begs my father to help them out every day.” Song Yiyan also wanted to escape, but the reality of the situation did not allow her to..
