Chapter 508

The urgent sound of knocking on the door startled Jiang Ye awake.

Jiang Ye went to bed early, usually around eight o'clock.

Hearing the urgent knocking, she was given a great fright and woke up immediately; at first, she even thought she was dreaming.

After becoming fully awake, she immediately threw on a piece of clothing and went to the door.

Looking out through the peephole, she saw Lin Miao.

Jiang Ye was somewhat surprised; why would Lin Miao come over at this hour?

She knew about the things that had happened to the Lin Family over the past few days, Shu Xuan and Shu Chen had also told her some things, and there was also what she had seen with her own eyes before regarding how Lin Miao and the people of the Lin Family had forced Shu Xia to resign.

Thinking of this, she furrowed her brows tightly.

Lin Miao began to cry while standing outside the door, pleading, "Mom, please open the door, won't you? Let me come in first, won't you? Mom, I am your daughter; do you want to watch me stand outside like this?"

Hearing Lin Miao's words, Jiang Ye only then realized that Lin Miao's hair was disheveled, her clothes seemed a bit dirty, and her entire face was terrifyingly pale.

After hesitating for a moment, she opened the door.

The moment the door opened, Lin Miao rushed straight in and grabbed Jiang Ye in a hug, "Mom, I have nowhere else to go. The Lin Family has gone bankrupt, they don't want me anymore, and they even moved all my savings away to pay off debts. I have nothing left now, I only have you, Mom."

Jiang Ye's body stiffened; she could not bring herself to hug Lin Miao back.

Thinking of the things Lin Miao had done, she darkened her expression, "Choosing to stay with the Lin Family and not come back—that was your choice. Now that the Lin Family doesn't want you, there must be some reason for it. Lin Miao, don't think I'm easy to fool. There isn't enough room in this home to take you in; we are moving out of here very soon. You are already over twenty years old, and Xia Xia is already renting a place and working outside; there is no need for you to come looking for me. There is no bond between you and me as mother and daughter."

Then she pushed Lin Miao away directly.

And pushed her outside the door.

Lin Miao had not expected Jiang Ye to be so heartless, "Are you going to watch me starve to death outside? I am the daughter you carried in your womb for ten months!"

Now that Shu Xia is making money, and Shu Xuan and Shu Chen are all making money, is it so hard to give her money so she can continue living the life of a wealthy young lady?

Even Jiang Ye herself works as a cleaner at a hotel, making several thousand yuan a month, doesn't she?

How could they be so selfish?

Jiang Ye's expression turned cold, "With hands and feet, you won't starve to death. Go find a job and work in a down-to-earth way; supporting yourself is not a difficult task."

Although she felt a pang of reluctance, she could not be so selfish as to bring trouble upon her children just for the sake of her own bit of reluctance.

The Lin Miao before her had a twisted mind and had been thoroughly corrupted by Lin Guanda and the others.

Lin Miao was dumbfounded, "I am a wealthy young lady, and in the future, I am to marry into a wealthy family to be a young mistress; how can I go to work? I will not let myself be ordered around by others!"

The words had just fallen.

The door in front of her slammed shut with a bang.

Looking at the closed door in front of her, Lin Miao was furious: "Don't you think about your own future? With my looks and education, after I marry into a wealthy family, you could all benefit from it. Now, letting you pay a little for me and helping me out during my most difficult time—I am delivering an opportunity to you, yet you don't cherish it!"

"......"

All sorts of words that defied common sense kept reaching Jiang Ye's ears.

Jiang Ye sighed.

Immediately following that, she felt even more fortunate that she had made the right choice.

Shu Chen had sent her a video, saying it was a video on the trending topics, and now everyone in Jing City had seen it.

In the video, Lin Miao was acting like a lunatic, going crazy and taking off her clothes; such behavior made one's scalp tingle.
