Chapter 489: He Is My Life

Originally, Yu Meizi had some words that she wanted to say privately to Ling Tianya. She really didn’t like Ling Tianya’s mother-in-law with her naive expression, and the way she bemoaned the state of the universe and pitied the fate of mankind. They were both women, and they both married into a wealthy family. Why was it that she had suffered so much and had been ignored by everyone and yet Wang Yazhi lived so blissfully?

“Yaya, are you sure that you won’t speak to me privately?” Yu Meizi’s eyes flickered between Wang Yazhi and Ling Tianya.

Ling Tianya nodded. “I am certain.”

Wang Yazhi proudly lifted her head and sat down on the individual sofa in the study, pointing to Yu Meizi and motioning towards the sofa next to her. “Sit down and talk.”

Yu Meizi furrowed her eyebrows. “There’s no need. I’ll leave once I finish talking.”

Thus, Yu Meizi lifted her head and looked at Ling Tianya, a certain emotion evident in her eyes.

Ling Tianya recognized that emotion. It was one of disappointment.

At one point in her life, nearly everyone looked at her that way. However, she had sealed away those days six years ago.

Ling Tianya could guess Yu Meizi’s purpose for coming to her.

“Yaya…” Yu Meizi’s voice was heavy. “Were you the one who set up those men?”

“Which men?”

“Don’t act stupid. The ones that beat up Zhang Chao and Zhang Zihao!”

Ling Tianya’s eyes were firm. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Do you really not know or are you just pretending not to know?” Yu Mdeizi’s eyes brimmed with tears. “Yaya, I am very disappointed in you!”

“Disappointed in me?” Ling Tianya thought that it was hilarious. “Based on what? Based on your made-up ideas?”

Yu Meizi shook her head, still upset. “Yaya, I didn’t come here to argue with you. I only want to know. Were you the one who set up those men?”

Ling Tianya got up from the chair. With a laugh, she pressed her hand down on the table. “No!” Her voice was resolute and decisive, her expression firm.

Yu Meizi was momentarily distracted but once she thought about how Zhang Chao and Zhang Zihao were still laying in the hospital after being beaten up, as well as Zhang Zihao throwing himself into her embrace, accusing Ling Tianya, Yu Meizi’s heart remained biased towards Zhang Zihao.

Yu Meizi’s face darkened and she took a step forward. Upon seeing this, Wang Yazhi quickly got off of the sofa and walked beside Yu Meizi, grabbing her arm, afraid that she would hurt Ling Tianya.

“Since my Yaya said that it wasn’t her, then it wasn’t her! You are Yaya’s biological mother. Why don’t you trust your daughter’s words?”

Although Wang Yazhi didn’t know what happened, no matter what, she would always trust Ling Tianya. Right now, she was both angry and distressed. If she had a daughter like Ling Tianya, she would love her dearly everyday. How could she bear to treat her like this?

This Yu Meizi, did she not have a heart?

Due to Wang Yazhi’s intervention, Yu Meizi was forced to stay a table’s distance from Ling Tianya. She looked at Ling Tianya. “I know that you hate me and that you are unable to forgive me. In the past, I was the one who wronged you and this is not related to anyone else! If you want to vent your anger and get revenge, then you can direct it all against me. However, Zhang Zihao is my life. I won’t allow you to hurt him!”

“He is your life?” Ling Tianya dropped her gaze. A burst of chilliness emitted from her body. Her lower abdomen started to faintly hurt, and she hugged her stomach, her voice becoming a little choked. “If Zhang Zihao is your life, then what am I?”

Ling Tianya’s words appeared like the cold wind in the silent and empty wilderness, miserable and lonesome…
