Chapter 10
Tattletale
Ye Yao ran off happily. When she came to a corner, a stretched out leg suddenly appeared. After Ye Yao dodged it instinctively, she aimed a kick at it. Then, she heard a yell.
Ye Yao looked at Qin Jiao, who was kneeling on the ground, and raised an eyebrow. “I knew you hadn’t left. What do you think? Which hurts more? My kick or Huo Buyu’s?”
Ye Yao wasn’t sure how much force Huo Buyu had used in that kick. In any case, she hadn’t shown any mercy! That kick was to get back at Qin Jiao for the old and new grudges!
Qin Jiao’s leg was in pain. Struggling to get up from the ground, she glared at Ye Yao and said, “Leave Huo Buyu now! If you don’t, I’ll torture your mother to death!”
Ye Yao’s beautiful face was instantly filled with fear. She begged, “No, Qin Jiao, don’t bully my mother. I’m willing to do anything you want me to…”
Seeing this, Qin Jiao’s expression turned arrogant again. She snorted disdainfully. “At least you know what’s good for you! Break up with Huo Buyu now! Say it aloud that you’re not worthy of him!”
However, in the next second, the expression of the aggrieved and pleading Ye Yao vanished. She looked at Qin Jiao teasingly. “Why? Is this the performance you were hoping most to see? Did you think I’d care about my mother and be at your mercy? Do you think I’m still that innocent and ignorant girl from back then, Qin Jiao?”
The nature of the relationship between Ye Yao and Qin Jiao was significant. Because Ye Yao’s mother married Qin Jiao’s father, her mother was now Qin Jiao’s stepmother. In other words, the relationship between Ye Yao and Qin Jiao was similar to that between Ye Yao and Ye Sui. They were half-sisters. It was just that Ye Yao was more unfortunate. After her mother married Qin Jiao’s father, she doted on Qin Jiao, the stepdaughter. As long as Qin Jiao wanted something, she would think of ways to give it to her. She would even take something from Ye Yao to give to Qin Jiao. As a stepmother as well, He He would take from Ye Yao to give to her own daughter, Ye Sui, while Ye Yao’s own mother would take from her in order to please Qin Jiao. Therefore, Ye Yao was bullied both ways.
Qin Jiao glared fiercely at Ye Yao. “If you won’t do as I say, I’ll make sure your mother leads a miserable life in my house!”
Ye Yao smirked. “Is that so? What kind of threat is this? Look at my stepmother at home. What would I dare to do to her? I can’t wait to worship her every day. So what would you dare to do to my mother and your stepmother? Moreover, I can’t wait for you to treat my mother badly so that my mother can quickly return to my side and be my mother and no one else’s.”
Qin Jiao widened her eyes. “What do you mean? You don’t care about your mother anymore?”
Ye Yao shrugged. “What sort of philosophy is that? It’s parents who take care of their children. Why is it that when it comes to me, it’s the child who needs to take care of her parents? Don’t worry, I won’t break up with Huo Buyu for sure. I even wish to marry him and have children with him! I’ll anger you to death! Do you remember how you bullied me when you were young? Now, it’s finally pay back time!”
Many years ago, Qin Jiao’s father went to S City to establish a branch office. He stayed in S City for a year and hooked up with Ye Yao’s mother. From then on, Ye Yao’s mother became Qin Jiao’s stepmother. Qin Jiao was spoiled rotten. She didn’t like her stepmother, nor did she like Ye Yao, whom her stepmother brought along! Every time Qin Jiao caused trouble for Ye Yao, her stepmother would chide Ye Yao, and make her give in to Qin Jiao. During that period of time, Ye Yao almost had depression!
Now that she had run into Qin Jiao again, the tide had turned. Ye Yao expected to take back everything that Qin Jiao owed to her.
When Qin Jiao heard Ye Yao’s words, she rushed forward like a mad person. “Ye Yao, I’m going to kill you!”
The moment Qin Jiao pounced on her, Ye Yao shouted in the direction behind her, “Huo Buyu, help…”
As if someone had hit a pause button, Qin Jiao quickly turned around. “No, Huo Buyu, I didn’t hit her…” There was no one behind her. There was no Huo Buyu! She glared at Ye Yao. “How dare you trick me!”
Ye Yao crossed her arms. “When did you become so timid? Oh, I forgot. You love Huo Buyu very much, and Huo Buyu loves me very much, so you don’t dare to touch me. If you so much as lay a finger on me, I’ll complain to Huo Buyu and ask him to teach you a lesson!”
Telling tales was something Qin Jiao would typically do. In the past, her favorite thing to do was complain to Ye Yao’s mother. Then, Ye Yao’s mother would reprimand Ye Yao, and Qin Jiao would smirk by the side. Now, it was finally Ye Yao’s turn to tell tales.
