Chapter 2385: Chapter 2385: Facing Your Former Self
The little bit of image I managed to restore was completely ruined by her mother!
"What are you doing again?!"
Just as Ding Rong was at a loss, unsure of what to do, an aged voice rose up from behind everyone.
Hearing this voice, Madam Ding was startled, involuntarily trembling a bit.
She turned her head and looked at the newcomer.
"Mother, why have you... why have you come?"
"This is a banquet I set up. Can I not come?"
Old Madam Ding glared coldly at her daughter-in-law, questioning her sternly.
"If I didn’t come, who knows what kind of trouble you would have caused? Aren’t you supposed to be reflecting in your own quarters? Who allowed you to come here?"
"I..."
Madam Ding opened her mouth, glancing at her daughter.
No one had told her to come, but her biological daughter was here today. How could she not come?
What if her precious daughter was bullied again, what then? Of course, she had to come and stand up for her daughter; she couldn’t rely on the Ding Family, could she?
She certainly couldn’t count on them!
"Since you’re injured and you’re supposed to be reflecting, why don’t you get back?"
Old Madam Ding left her no dignity whatsoever. Since this daughter-in-law could openly disgrace her guests at her banquet, why should she be courteous?
Since they wanted to see a joke, let them see the joke of the Ding Family!
"Mother..."
Madam Ding gritted her teeth, looking at her daughter once more.
"Mother, I’ve finally seen Rong’er, might I bring Rong’er back with me?" she asked.
"You..."
"Mother, please go back first. I haven’t seen Grandmother and Father for several months, I naturally want to be here with them." Before Old Madam Ding could speak, Ding Rong spoke directly to her mother.
Go back, go back with her mother to do what? Continue being brainwashed by her mother?
She really didn’t want to live like she used to.
She used to think she was at the Ding Family, her own territory; whoever she wanted to come, would come; whoever she wanted to drive away, would be driven away.
Just like her mother’s attitude.
But just now, seeing her mother’s face twisted in anger at Lin Baizhong and Liu Yuyang, why did she find that face so ugly?
She thought to herself, was she like this before?
How utterly shameful, she didn’t even want to face her past self.
"Rong’er!"
Hearing her daughter’s words, Madam Ding could hardly believe it was the daughter she raised speaking!
"Rong’er, I’m your mother, are you unwilling to spend more time with me upon your return?"
She had hoped Rong’er would help her finish what she wanted to do, so that Lin Baizhong would lose all face and that shameless woman who hit her would get what she deserved and become a disgraceful unfaithful woman!
But now, her daughter wasn’t even willing to leave with her and wanted to stay here!
How could she bear this?
"I’m your closest person!"
Her hands tightly grasped Ding Rong’s arm, speaking a bit sorrowfully.
"But I also want to be with Grandmother and Father, they are my closest family too," Ding Rong lifted her other hand, the one not being clasped, to separate her mother’s hand, then looked at her calmly.
She had many things to discuss with her father and grandmother, and if she returned to the inner chambers with her mother, she wouldn’t be able to do anything.
