All Worlds Beg the Villainess to Act Like a Human
Chapter 420: The Formidable Boss Protects Her Daughter Online (12)
Qiann Yan didn’t explain much to Jiang Jinghan about "can’t beat" these words, after discovering that Jiang Jinghan wasn’t beyond rescue, she decided to say something more.
"Little Han."
Jiang Jinghan snapped back to reality: "Mom, what’s wrong? If you find it difficult, just forget it. I know Dad’s temper, he’ll likely take it out on you soon."
While saying this, Jiang Jinghan felt an inexplicable sense of despair.
It can be said that Mom is really good to her. As a child, she preferred to take a beating herself to protect her from injury. After she finished middle school, Dad wanted her to drop out, but it was Mom who fought for her. In high school, Dad thought it was useless for a daughter to study, as she’d just end up getting married, yet Mom endured several days of beatings, insisting on sending her to school.
Later, when she started working, she diligently handed over her wages to the family, keeping only a small amount for herself. She thought it was right; at least when she brought money home, Dad was happy, and Mom seldom got beaten.
Then she got married. She had a good relationship with Liu Wenbin and thought the future would be happy, but she ended up with a mother-in-law who was harsh to her, and a father-in-law who liked to direct from the side and put on airs.
Facing them, Liu Wenbin only told her to bear it.
She endured, and afterwards, Liu Wenbin would comfort her, say nice things, and buy her good food. She felt life wasn’t so bad. Her father-in-law and mother-in-law weren’t great, but at least her husband was good to her. No matter how bitter or tiring, it was all worth it.
The day she gave birth, she went through a near-death experience, and Liu Wenbin’s reaction greatly disappointed her. But he seemed to have always been like this. That’s just his personality. She should have expected this reaction long ago.
So, what was she expecting?
But without expectations, what could she do?
Separate from Liu Wenbin?
Now there’s a child, how would she support this child? She had no confidence.
Throughout their marriage, she never had money; Liu Chengxi managed everything. Therefore, she had no way of standing up for herself.
If it weren’t for Mom always being on her side, she might not even have the courage to walk out of this household.
Thinking of her own family’s situation, any hope that Jiang Jinghan originally had gradually dimmed.
Mom has treated her very well, has tried her best, but their fate isn’t good. If she followed, Mom would certainly be beaten, and she truly didn’t want to see that happen again.
Qiann Yan noticed Jiang Jinghan suddenly stopped, standing in place with her bag, her eyes red and about to overflow with tears.
Qiann Yan reached out a hand and pulled out a tissue: "The doctor said you shouldn’t cry during the post-birth confinement period, it’s bad for your eyes."
It would have been better if she hadn’t said this, but upon hearing it, Jiang Jinghan couldn’t help but cry. She quickly grabbed the tissue and wiped her tears messily.
She attempted to hold the child: "Mom, forget it. Isn’t life just worn away like this little by little? I’ll go back."
"Back to the Liu Family?" Qiann Yan studied Jiang Jinghan’s expression and could tell from her eyes that she didn’t genuinely want to return to the Liu Family.
This kept her from getting angry.
"What are you worried about?"
Jiang Jinghan sobbed, saying: "I don’t want to make things difficult for you."
Watching her mother get beaten while she couldn’t do anything made her feel miserable. She didn’t want to go through such helplessness anymore.
"Let’s go, come with me." Qiann Yan hugged the child and quickly walked towards the Jiang Family’s direction.
Jiang Jinghan couldn’t leave the child behind and return to the Liu Family alone. She could only follow, on edge the entire way.
