Witnessing Ye Tian in this state, Ye Youyou suddenly felt her heart go out to her.

Regardless of how unreasonably Ye Tian had been, and how badly she had treated her…
At the end of the day, she was still Ye Youyou’s biological mother.
Ye Youyou gazed at Ye Tian and said, “The remaining sum isn’t much. I can cover it for you.”
Ye Tian looked at Ye Youyou, but her face carried neither the surprise that Li Jinnan had expected nor an ounce of gratitude.
Her face was contorted to present an ugly expression. Various emotions were evident. The look was a complicated one.
When she witnessed that expression on Ye Tian’s face, Ye Youyou suddenly doubted her decision and felt as if she might have said the wrong thing.
Ye Youyou wasn’t familiar with how exactly Ye Tian treated others.
However, when it came to Ye Youyou, she knew well that Ye Tian never knew better than to look a gift horse in the mouth.
Ye Youyou steeled her heart. The smile on her face faded away. With an emotionless face, she said, “I hope to never see you again.”
The expression on Ye Tian’s face changed drastically as she protested, “What is that supposed to mean? I am your mother!”
“You have never treated me as your daughter. Why are you even bothering to say these fake words now?” Ye Youyou looked at her with a tinge of pity.
“Ye Youyou, you cannot do this!”
“You don’t have to return the money that you owe Anan. I’ll repay it on your behalf. From now on, regardless of the reason, please do not come to find me. Take advantage of the fact that you’re still good-looking enough to find a good man to settle down with.”
Ye Tian’s breathing started to become unstable until it reached a point where it was labored and panicked. She suddenly broke down in sorrowful wails.
Ye Tian’s outburst was so sudden that Ye Youyou hadn’t expected it and was caught by surprise.
As she watched her mother in front of her, Ye Youyou’s heart began to soften.
However, she knew what Ye Tian’s nature was like.
It was easier to move mountains than it was to change Ye Tian’s character.
If she didn’t stick to her guns, Ye Tian would only grow more unreasonable as time passed.
Only if Ye Tian were on the receiving end of her heartlessness would she slowly learn to be self-sufficient.
In the future, after Ye Tian had gotten rid of her bad habits and changed her ways, Ye Youyou intended to take her back in her old age to take care of her and see her through.
This was the plan she and Li Jinnan had discussed and settled on during their way there.
Furthermore, she was the one who had proposed this plan. Li Jinnan supported her wholeheartedly. She couldn’t mess it up at this point.
However, Ye Tian was completely unaware of their plan.
Her wails grew louder with each passing moment, to the extent that her voice began to get hoarse. She screeched, “My daughter! Why have you become like that? I am your mother! Have you forgotten? When you were bullied in school when you were young, I took revenge for you! Everyone was mocking me back then for bullying another child as an adult! I did it all willingly for the sake of my daughter! Why has my daughter become like this now? Youyou! You’re mommy’s daughter!”
Ye Youyou leaned on Li Jinnan and she felt her eyes beginning to sting with unshed tears. She strengthened her resolve and said, “Let’s go. Let’s go back.”
Li Jinnan held her tightly and replied, “Alright.” With that, he looked toward Lawyer Ye and said, “Take good care of Madam Ye. We’re leaving now.”
“Sure, Mr. Li, I will do my best.” Lawyer Ye nodded his head and looked in Ye Tian’s direction with a hint of pity.
Pitiful people had their reasons for being in that position to begin with.
It was obvious from Ye Tian’s overbearing attitude moments before what kind of a person she truly was. Her current tears were nothing than a temporary show of weakness put up for Ye Youyou’s benefit.
