Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss Chapter 052 Good Mother and Filial Child

52 052 Good Mother and Filial Child

Chen Yi was pushed, and she almost fell. She turned and looked at Tan Rou in disbelief as she screamed, “You! You are a rascal! How dare you lay hands on me?!”

Even if Tan Jing wasn’t happy with Chen Yi, she still had to side with Chen Yi. Plus, Tan Rou was disrespectful towards her foster parents in public! She would definitely have to add oil to this fire!

Tan Jing stepped forward to hold Chen Yi steady herself before she turned towards Tan Rou and said, “How could you push your mother?! She raised you for the past ten years. Even if you went back to the Tao family, you still shouldn’t hit your foster parent!”

Chen Yi felt today was a bad day to leave the house. She had humiliated herself. Just when she thought she could gain some pride from Tan Rou and leave once she satisfied her vanity, she didn’t think that Tan Rou would go against her in front of so many people, completely disregarding Chen Yi’s reputation!

Chen Yi held onto her chest and acted as if she was heartbroken, “Of course. You have wings now and found your family, which is why you can be disrespectful toward me. You’re dating Young Master Zhuang now, and you can be rude to me? You ungrateful child! b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”

Zhang Liu patiently listened to them, and he didn’t even frown. He was about to speak up and get Xiao Mo to shut them up and throw them into the ditches.

However, Tan Rou was the one who spoke up first. Her tone was monotonous as she was already hopeless, “I am being ungrateful? What a joke! Have you done anything for me? Is there anything that I should be grateful for? The moment I could walk alone, you sent me away and never cared about me for the past ten years. You would like it better if you could send me to the moon.”

Tan Rou looked calm, but her eyes still undeniably showed her sadness.

“Have you even cared about how my life was? When I needed my mother, you happily had a party with the others when I was sad. I have finally grown up independently, and I don’t need you to love me anymore but at the ball….”

Tan Rou looked at the people around her before she continued, “Everyone here was present at the ball as well. All of you would know clearly that it was Tan Jing who tried to harm me. The evidence was laid right before you, but you decided to side with her. I felt accused instead. From that moment, I was no longer in debt for your upbringing. I would have returned everything if I ever owed you anything!”

The rest of them nodded their heads. Some of them were present at the ball, and they knew everything that happened. The rest who weren’t present would have already heard of it since it was the gossip of the years. They were all surprised by how bia.s.sed Chen Yi was that evening.

Tan Jing didn’t think that with these, Tan Rou immediately received sympathy from the rest of the people around her. They also started blaming Chen Yi for it, and Tan Jing wasn’t happy with it.

“Tan Rou, is there anything wrong with mother wanting to love me more? As her daughter, we should be understanding. How could you be so mindless? You can hate me all you want, but you still must be filial towards your mother!”

When Zhuang Liu heard Tan Rou talking, his eyes were locked on her. He could no longer suppress the pain from how heartbroken he was. Zhuang Liu didn’t think Tan Rou had to endure so much pain when she was young.

Children would always admire and look up to their parents, but Chen Yi ruined it for Tan Rou. When Tan Jing returned home, Chen Yi pushed the last straw for Tan Rou, and this was why Tan Rou didn’t see Chen Yi as her mother.

Seeing how Tan Jing still had the audacity to speak up, Zhuang Liu’s face turned cold as he stared at Tan Jing, “The wise man used to say that it is bad mothers who raise unfilial children. If a mother isn’t a good role model, how would they have filial children? Miss tan, I think it would be better for you to reflect on yourself first. You would have forgotten how to spell the word’ filial’ when you abandoned the Tao family and ran back to the Tan family.”

Zhuang Liu sneered as he continued, “You are only filial towards money and fame. It doesn’t matter who your parents actually are.”

Tan Jing felt her head spinning when she heard what the man said. She always thought of herself as a brilliant and obedient child. Did the rest of them see her this way as well?

The rest listened to the conversation between them and each other, and they had interesting looks on their faces. It was obvious that they were judging Chen Yi and Tan Jing.

One of the women let out a cold laugh, “A heartless mother and a traitor for a daughter. Oh, Chen Yi! This girl really is your biological child. Both of you are indeed family.”

Chen Yi started screaming, disregarding her image, “Shut up!” Even if Chen Yi was arrogant, she still cared about her reputation. Without a good reputation, none of the wealthy families would be willing to socialize with the Tan family. It was fine that Tan Rou was speaking against her, but now, Zhuang Liu was speaking up for her too!

As for Tan Jing, she was already sobbing uncontrollably.

Chen Yi glared at Tan Rou as she said, “You sl*t! I sent you overseas to further your studies, but all you have learned was how to seduce men! Young Master Zhuang, you shouldn’t believe her lies! Daughters of low-income families like her would only be dying to have a luxurious life like the Tan family, which is why she’s trying her best to be married to a wealthy family!”
