The pain in his arm brought Wang Peiling back to his senses.
Wang Peiling’s bewildered eyes refocused, falling upon her face, "What did you say?"
Mother Wang held her head, asking irritably, "How are things going with that Yue Yaer?"
"We broke up," Wang Peiling said woodenly. "I saw a man... that man likes her..."
Wang Peiling looked at Mother Wang, "Didn’t you always say that she cos from poverty and isn’t good enough for our family?"
"Exactly!" Mother Wang, still fuming that Wang Peiling hadn’t brought Yue Yaer to apologize, was full of resentnt, "Didn’t you yourself say that her parents are deceased, her grandfather is gone, she’s working as a school doctor at a noble school, has no house or property in Beijing, living at a friend’s house, and the inheritance left by her parents abroad was given to her uncle and aunt, leaving her with nothing? Isn’t this what you said?"
"Yes, yes... that’s all what I said..." Wang Peiling nodded painfully, "But, Mom, didn’t you say that for a rich family’s young master, apart from being blind and brainless, no one would marry a girl of Yaer’s background? Yet, the man I saw is even wealthier than , and he loves Yue Yaer!"
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Mother Wang didn’t believe it at all, "Are you trying to trick into accepting Yue Yaer again? I’m telling you, the only way I’ll agree for her to enter the Wang family is if she kneels before and begs for forgiveness; otherwise, don’t even think about it!"
"Mom, stop daydreaming!" Wang Peiling staggered back a few steps, laughing mockingly, "Mom, you know what? The man who likes Yue Yaer drives a custom-made luxury car, surrounded by over ten bodyguards, looks more handso than , has better poise than , and is more extravagant than ! Yue Yaer couldn’t care less about ; she said she’s breaking up with and hopes we won’t see each other ever again!"
Wang Peiling furiously waved his arms, spinning in place a few tis, "Mom, I’ve liked her for so many years! I’ve pursued her for so long and finally won her over, and she finally agreed to date ... Mom, why do you have to make things difficult for her? Didn’t we agree that when I bring her ho, you wouldn’t make it hard for her, you agreed to our relationship, so why did you drive her away?"
"You bla ? You’re blaming ?" Mother Wang was shaking with rage, grabbing a water glass at hand and flinging it at him, "It’s just a poor girl! You’re blaming over a poor girl!"
Wang Peiling didn’t dodge.
The water glass struck his forehead.
His body shook, the glass fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.
Darkness swept over his eyes as blood instantly began to flow.
Mother Wang was montarily shocked and blank, then tears fell as she struggled to get out of bed, staggering towards him, "Peiling, are you okay? Peiling? Mom didn’t an it! Why are you so stupid? Why didn’t you dodge? Help! Help!"
Doctors and nurses hurried in upon hearing the commotion.
After quickly treating Wang Peiling’s wound, they retreated again.
Wang Peiling sat motionless at the edge of the bed, devoid of any expression, as if he had lost his soul.
Mother Wang cried incessantly, "Wang Peiling, how can you be so useless? It’s just a woman! With your conditions, what woman can’t you marry? As long as you’re willing, you can have as many as you want! Why do you insist on being stuck on Yue Yaer?"
