”You are accusing me. Tang Zhen, why don't you see who raised you up to this extent?”
Hearing Tang Zhen's words, Tang Zijun's heart filled with anger, she stared at Tang Zhen angrily, a ruthless look flashing past her eyes.
”Mom, that's not what I meant …”
Tang Zhen saw that his mother was angry, and was about to explain, but before she could finish, she was snatched away by Xu Miaomiao.
”Tang Zhen, you aren't wrong, why must you apologize? Now that I finally understand why you've been living such a bad life for so many years, it turned out to be because of this mother. Seeing her daughter injured, not only did you not ignore her, you even ridiculed her hundreds of times.
The more Xu Miaomiao said, the angrier she became. She flung Gu Yun, who was desperately trying to stop her away, and directly walked to Tang Zhen's side.
”If you could use half of your power to deal with Tang Zhen, she wouldn't have suffered so much at the Song Family for so many years, yet you pushed your own daughter into the fire pit with your own eyes, and now you are reprimanding her nonstop. What face do you have to say all this?”
Xu Miaomiao shouted all of the accumulated thoughts in his heart. She had never gotten to know Tang Zhen's parents before, and had only heard about them in university, but she had never seen her parents.
As expected, he did not know when he saw it and was shocked. Such a powerful mother, it looked like Tang Zhen had a reason for marrying his cousin.
”You … ”You …”
The haughty and arrogant Tang Zijun, when had she ever been scolded in such a way? She pointed at Xu Miaomiao in anger, her fingers trembling uncontrollably.
”Mom …”
”Madam …”
Seeing that Tang Zijun had fainted, Tang Zhen quickly walked forward. Aunt Li quickly rushed over, and the Tang Family was in a mess.
Tang Zhen called for the family doctor until the doctor told him that Tang Zijun was alright. Only then did Tang Zhen relax.
”Tang Zhen, I'm sorry, I... I didn't mean to. ”
Seeing Tang Zhen coming down from the stairs, Xu Miaomiao hurriedly apologized to him. She was always in a hurry to apologize, she didn't know how she managed to infuriate Tang Zijun to such a state with just these few sentences. She could not help but feel guilty in her heart.
”It's okay, I know you care about me.” Tang Zhen held her hand, causing her body to sway uncontrollably as she spoke, and she felt a wave of dizziness.
She had not completely recovered from the injuries on her head before being discharged, but now she did not even have time to properly recuperate before being called back by Tang Zijun, and she had already lost all her strength.
”Tang Zhen.”
Xu Miaomiao carried her to the sofa and quickly examined her wounds. Seeing that she was alright, he heaved a sigh of relief.
”I'm fine, just rest for a while, Gu Yun, send Miao Miao back first, it has been hard on you all these few days.”
Tang Zhen forced out a smile, his face as pale as a sheet of paper.
”But, with your current state, how can I be at ease and leave?”
Xu Miaomiao said as she held Tang Zhen's hand. This time, Tang Zhen's house was not just his home, it was clearly another fire pit. She did not feel at ease at all.
”I know, I'll send her away now. Rest well, I'll come see you tomorrow.”
Gu Yun said softly as he looked at Tang Zhen. He had wanted to reach out and caress Tang Zhen's pale white face, but he resisted the urge in the end.
Tang Zhen smiled and nodded.
