"Ah, this time it was indeed Luoluo's fault. Auntie has already scolded her and advised her to divorce Lin Yulin as soon as possible."
"Auntie, do you think this is something that can be solved with a divorce?"
"Auntie has always regarded you as her own son. I only have Shalolo as my daughter, and she has grown up without a father. It's all my fault for spoiling her, so if you want to blame someone, blame me."
No wonder they are mother and daughter; Shalolo's mother started tearing up while speaking. If one didn't know better, they might think she truly didn't want me to break up with her daughter.
"Auntie, I remember your exact words on WeChat were to let Shalolo keep it a secret from me and to hold onto Lin Yulin tightly. Why are you now asking Luoluo to divorce Lin Yulin?"
"Also, that Agate Necklace in your hand was brought back by Lin Yulin from abroad, right?"
Shalolo's mother turned red instantly and stammered without being able to say a complete sentence.
To be fair, over the past five years, I have treated this future mother-in-law better than my own mother.
Whether it was gifts and red envelopes during holidays or daily care and greetings, I always chose well.
But it wasn't until I saw her chat records that I realized she and her daughter viewed me merely as a naive person with deep pockets.
She took a sip of water from her cup and continued: "No matter how you put it, this matter is still Shalolo's fault. But mothers and daughters share a bond; Auntie knows that Shalolo loves you."
"Please give her another chance, okay? Consider it Auntie's request."
"Auntie, if today the person getting married was me, would you advise Shalolo to forgive me?"
"I understand your bias towards your daughter, but I am also human. I have feelings too. Why should I easily forgive after being betrayed for five whole years?"
Shalolo's mother saw my firm attitude and, after finishing her last glass of water, got up to leave.
Before she left, she took back the gifts she had brought and muttered, "What a waste of money."
Haha, how amusing.
After seeing her mother off, I called a moving company to take away everything related to Shalolo, and then I blocked both her and Lin Yulin.
After thoroughly cleaning up, there was not a trace of Shalolo left in the house.
Looking at my refreshed home, I let out a long sigh. This time, I truly said goodbye to those five years.
I took out the professional books and materials from the corner of my study, dusted them off, and began to carefully flip through the pages.
In fact, my family had wanted me to study abroad for a long time and had even arranged for me to work at an overseas branch.
But at that time, I couldn't bear to leave Shalolo, rejecting several offers from prestigious universities and even getting into a big fight with my parents over it.
Now, seeing my former classmates achieving success while I remain stuck in place makes me wish I could go back five years and give myself two hard slaps.
But after calming down, I realized I was only twenty-eight; as long as I wanted to do something, it was never too late.
I immediately informed my parents of my decision to pursue a master's degree and set up a study plan for myself.
With my parents' help and intense training, I quickly scored high on the IELTS and successfully received an offer.
Upon hearing this good news, my parents immediately arranged a farewell banquet for me.
All my relatives and friends came, and they refrained from mentioning anything about Shalolo or Lin Yulin, only advising me to study hard and take care of my health.
Seeing everyone’s concern for me filled my heart with warmth.
However, just as the meal was about to end, my cousin Zhou Anran hurriedly urged everyone to check their phones.
When I opened mine, I was instantly dumbfounded; my name was all over the trending short video charts.
And behind my name were tags like " Pretty Boy " and "Third Party."
