Don't Try to Run Away, Madam President: The Cute Triplets

Chapter 10: Completely Drawing the Line

I left the home I'd lived in for over a decade, and from then on, I was completely alone! Although I had my friend, Qin Niannian, I couldn't always bother her! I still needed a home of my own. Looking through my mom's things, I discovered a secret compartment in the box. I opened it and saw a letter and a key inside. I read the contents of the letter.

My dear daughter, by the time you receive this letter, I may be gone. I know you're not my daughter. I remember when you were little, you accidentally fell and punctured your abdomen, causing a profuse bleeding. When I went for a blood transfusion, the doctor told me you had the rare Rh-negative blood type, while I have the common B type. At that moment, I knew your background might be unusual. But I still choose to cherish you as my own daughter, because from the moment I met you, I felt a special bond between us.

Over the years, watching you grow up little by little, my heart is filled with joy and happiness. Although our lives have had their ups and downs, I have never regretted my original choice. I know you may have suffered some injustices in this family, but please believe that your mother has always loved you.

This key is a guarantee I left for you. It's the money I've secretly saved over the years to buy you a small apartment so you'll have a place to stay if your father kicks you out. My daughter, maybe one day you'll want to find your biological parents. But no matter what choice you make, I hope you'll be happy.

Yiyi, don't be sad for too long because I'm gone. You must face life bravely and pursue your dreams. Remember, no matter when or where you are, your mother will always be watching over you in heaven.

After reading this letter, I burst into tears.

I returned to my own apartment and looked at the things my mother had left behind, and memories flooded back. It was as if my mother's gentle smile and caring eyes were still before my eyes, though now she was gone. She clutched those things tightly, as if drawing from them a sense of warmth and strength from her mother.

Meanwhile, back at the Mo family, Mo Yurou's resentment towards Yi Yi intensified. She felt deeply humiliated, forced to apologize by Yi Yi and return things she had thought she had already taken. She lost her temper in her room, throwing things around, venting all her frustration and anger.

"Mom, I won't accept this! Why could Mo Yiyi treat me like this? I must make her pay the price!" Mo Yurou said gritting her teeth.

Seeing her daughter so angry, the woman felt heartbroken. She knew they were in the wrong this time, but she didn't want her daughter to feel wronged. "Yu Rou, don't be angry yet. We'll take a long-term approach and find a way to deal with Mo Yiyi," the woman consoled.

Mo Tianci fell into deep thought. He knew this incident had further strained family relations, but he couldn't allow Yi Yi to threaten the Mo family's reputation. He decided to talk to Yi Yi again, trying to ease the situation and find a lasting solution.

A few days later, Mo Tianci called his daughter. I answered the phone and said, "Hello, what's going on?" Mo Tianci hesitated and said, "Yiyi, do you want to go home? Your aunt has made your favorite sweet and sour spare ribs, braised pork, etc. When I heard this, my heart moved slightly, but I quickly regained my composure. "No, I don't want to go back. I don't want to disturb your family."

Mo Tianci was silent for a moment. "Yiyi, Dad knows you're still angry with us. But we really hope you can come back so we can sit down and talk it over as a family and resolve the problem."

Yi Yi sneered, "Family? Do you really consider me family? How did you treat me in the beginning? Now you are saying these hypocritical words again."

Mo Tianci sighed, "Yi Yi, we were wrong about what happened in the past. But we can't keep on being stuck like this. Your aunt knows she was wrong, and she wants to apologize to you in person."

I roared angrily after hearing this, "Apology? Can her apology bring my mother back to life? Can it erase the injustice I've suffered?"

Mo Tianci said helplessly, "Yi Yi, I know none of this can be made up for. But we must always look forward and not live in the pain of the past. Come back, and let's start over together."

I was silent for a long time after hearing this, but I finally refused. "No, I've decided to start a new life. You guys should live your life well. Don't contact me again."

Mo Tianci heard Yi Yi's decisive words on the other end of the phone, feeling lost and helpless. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what else to say to save the situation. After a long silence, he said, "Yi Yi, I know you've been deeply wronged by this incident. But we are family after all. Can you please stop being so confrontational?" Mo Tianci said.

I sneered, "Family? I'm just a child you picked up. I thought you adopted me, so I should be grateful and leave my mother's things to you, but you turned around and gave them to your mistress. If it weren't for her, my mother wouldn't have died. Now you come to me and talk about family. Am I your family? I'm just my mother's child. In fact, my mother has known about my life experience for a long time, but she never told me and always treated me as her own child."

Mo Tianci's face was filled with pain when he heard my questioning on the other end of the phone. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. He knew that he really owed Yi Yi too much in this matter.

"Yiyi, I know I've let you and your mother down. But your sister is innocent! I didn't educate her well. If you post those things online, won't you be harming her mother? Even if Dad begs you, okay?"

I couldn't help but laugh at myself after hearing this. She's my biological daughter! So I picked up my phone and said, "I can choose not to post this online, but she has to apologize and promise not to target me again. Also, I'm moving out of my registered residence and becoming the head of the household."

When Mo Tianci heard this, his body trembled slightly, and the phone he picked up was shaking slightly. He couldn't help but ask, "Yi Yi, are you really determined to do this? Moving out of the household registration and becoming your own head of household is not a trivial matter." There was a hint of worry in Mo Tianci's voice.

I nodded firmly. "Dad, I've made up my mind. I'm not your daughter, so I shouldn't stay in this house. I want to live my life, and I don't want to fight with Mo Yurou. If she doesn't target me in the future, I won't target her either. I believe I'm capable of taking care of myself."

Mo Tianci sighed, "Okay, since you've made up your mind, I won't stop you. But, Yiyi, no matter where you go, you will always be my daughter. If you have any difficulties, you must come back to find your father."

My eyes moistened after hearing this. "Dad, I understand. I will live a good life. As for Mo Yurou, I hope you can keep your promise and ask her to apologize to me and promise not to target me again."

Mo Tianci nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will let her do it. Yiyi, take care of yourself when you are alone in the future."

Dad, this is the last time I will call you Dad. Please pretend not to know me when we meet again in the future. I quickly hung up the phone, tears streaming down my face.
