Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 2096 - 2100: Fixed-Term Imprisonment and Life Imprisonment

Just now, outside the café, when Mother Jian threw the invitation at her face, she suddenly thought of her own mother.

What Mother Jian did was really excessive.

But in a way, she was thinking of Jian Ruzhou’s future.

Mother Jian hoped Jian Ruzhou would marry a woman of matching social status, allowing him to struggle less for decades.

Back then, her father, who wasn’t valued or pampered by his parents, was because he married her mother who came from an ordinary background. The two had no status in the Lin Family. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

They were looked down upon and mistreated by everyone in the Lin Family.

If her father had married a noblewoman, neither her grandparents nor her uncles and aunts would have bullied her parents so recklessly.

Her mother suffered because of her background, which is why she could understand Mother Jian’s rejection of her better than most.

Although Mother Jian’s actions were excessive, she undoubtedly had her son’s best interests at heart... it’s just that her approach was somewhat wrong.

Seeing Mother Jian’s protection of Jian Ruzhou, she thought of her own mother.

At that moment, she desperately longed for her mother’s embrace, her mother’s gentle voice, and her mother’s skillful cooking...

She thought it was time for her to go home.

She couldn’t be like Muu Qingwan’s father, who regretted when it was too late to fulfill filial piety.

While her parents are still young, she should go back and fulfill her filial duties... if her parents are still willing to accept her...

Ye Xingbei patted her arm, advising, "So much time has passed since then, your mother must regret it too; even a convict can be released after serving time. Your parents certainly made mistakes back then, but they shouldn’t be sentenced to life..."

"Right," Ho Yumeng chuckled with tears in her eyes. "Beibei, you’re right... they shouldn’t be sentenced to life..."

She took a long breath and smiled brightly, "Then tomorrow... tomorrow I’ll take a day off, first to attend Jian Ruzhou’s engagement banquet, to settle things with Jian Ruzhou, and then go home to see my parents..."

She had a premonition that going back to the Lin Family this time would be completely different from eight years ago.

Now, she was a member of the Gu Family.

She was no longer the fifteen-year-old Ho Yumeng of eight years ago, who had nothing.

As long as her parents still acknowledged her as their daughter, then after she returned, she could back her parents up, preventing the Lin Family from bullying them again.

Her only wish now was that her parents would not be as foolishly filial as they were eight years ago, being bullied but not knowing how to resist, only silently enduring.

If her parents were still like that... she wouldn’t stand for anyone bullying her parents!

If anyone dared to bully her parents or her again, she’d turn the Lin Family upside down and take back all the grievances she suffered there eight years ago with interest!

The next day, Ho Yumeng deliberately chose a beautiful outfit, applied light makeup, and arrived at Yueyang Hotel on time.

She dressed up prettily not for Jian Ruzhou, but because after the banquet, she was going to see her parents.

She wanted to present herself beautifully to her parents, hoping that when they saw her, they would feel the pride of "our daughter has grown up."

At the hotel entrance, she said to Fang Yao, "Brother Yao, don’t come in yet, I’ll go by myself. I’ll make things clear with Jian Ruzhou and will come out quickly. If he bothers me, then come over. If he doesn’t, then just leave it."

This was a matter between her and Jian Ruzhou, and she didn’t want to involve Fang Yao.
