Evil Husband, Glutton Wife: Buy Miss Piggy, Get Free Little Buns

156 We Can’t Choose Which Family We’re Born Into 2

Why would she? Whenever she and her mother crossed paths, Zhang Wuying never missed the opportunity to taunt her and make her feel bad about herself. No matter how Tang Moyu tried to pretend that she was already immune to her mother's words, she still couldn't help but be disappointed.

Once she arrived, her mother was the first person to greet her at the front door.

"Oh, I thought Dad was just joking when he said you'll be visiting today. I guess I was wrong." Zhang Wuying sneered at her daughter the moment her eyes landed on her.

"I'm sorry for troubling you today, Mother. Don't worry. I don't plan on staying too long. I'll leave as soon as Grandfather and I finish our business." Tang Moyu replied nonchalantly before leaving her mother at the hallway and strode towards the study, where her grandfather was waiting.

She heard her mother scoff behind her.

"Everyone's joining. You can't possibly pretend that you truly care about this family, can you, Moyu?" Zhang Wuying sneered again.

Tang Moyu halted her steps and looked over her shoulder. Her eyes darkened from her mother's words.

"Mother, don't you think you are the last person who should be speaking about familial ties? I do not think you have the liberty to correct me when you yourself don't even know what being a mother means." She said before leaving the woman who gave birth to her there, seething in anger.

Looking after their kin? Could her mother even hear herself?

In this backstabbing family, Tang Beixuan and Lu Tianxin were the ones who truly cared about her as a person.

Others only looked at her as if she was some kind of asset that the Tang family could use to their devices. How many of them had taken advantage of her status as Feng Tianhua's fiance to gain favors from other people? Tang Moyu already lost count.

In her eyes, even Elder Tang wasn't any better. The old man had basically tricked her to come back from New York to save the company. Being the filial granddaughter that she was, Tang Moyu immediately came back with her little buns only to find out that the old man was nowhere near any danger.

Deteriorating health? Already on his deathbed? What kind of bullshit was that?

It was one of the reasons why Tang Moyu decided to acquire the family business herself! That should teach them a lesson not to mess with her!

Dare to trick her to come back and expect her to save their asses from the brink of bankruptcy? What do they take her for? A fool? A fool that they could take advantage of because she was a relative?

Weren't they the first ones who turned their backs on her when Feng Tianhua blacklisted her in Shenzhen?

She felt alone, but it didn't matter to her anymore. Since Lu Tianxin was currently doing a site inspection with Ye Xiaozu at Futian District, she wasn't able to participate today while her younger brother, Tang Beixuan, wasn't able to come too because he was currently finishing his master's degree abroad and wouldn't come back for another three months or so.

Elder Tang didn't seem too fazed that she had tricked her relatives to sell their minor shares to her and consequently gaining the upper hand in taking over the family business.

"I guess this is for the better. As long as the Tang Enterprise doesn't end up in the hand of others or suffer from total bankruptcy." He told everyone much to Zhang Wuying and others' chagrin.

Before Tang Moyu left the Tang Estate, her mother lifted her hand and gave her a loud slap, shocking everyone around them.

"You unfilial child! Is this how you treat your mother and your family?!"

Tang Moyu didn't say a word and only stared at her mother blankly. There were times she wondered if Zhang Wuying?was really the woman who gave birth to her.

Her eyes were misty as she drove back to Peach Blossom Garden.

When Feng Tianyi saw the redness on her face, he dropped the watering can in his hand and wheeled towards her.

"What happened to your face?" He asked, grabbing her hand with his.

Tang Moyu gave him a bitter smile.

"You aren't the only one with an abusive parent it seems."

His eyes darkened at those words, he could feel his blood boiling in rage at the thought of Moyu being hurt by her own family.

"Wow. Your family is full of shit if they can't cherish you. I think you should get a new one, Moyu." He said.

Tang Moyu shrugged and let out an awkward smile. She was already used to how her mother treated her unjustly, but that didn't mean her words didn't sting.

"Yeah. Well… that's impossible, right? We can't choose which family we're born into." She responded. Feng Tianyi was the last person she thought could understand her.

"Yeah, it's impossible to choose. But that doesn't mean you can't make one." Feng Tianyi grinned, pulling her wrist, making her sit on his lap.

Her eyes widening as she placed both of her hands on his shoulders to stabilize herself.

"W-what?" She asked incredulously. historical

"You can always start one with me." The devil said, as his eyes flashed at her with desire and longing.
