My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 745: Chapter 745: This time, completely severed ties with the Rong Family

“I kindly took you in from the hospital, and how do you repay me? Do you want to repay me by sending Weiwei to jail? Rong Yan, I knew you were an ingrate…”

Before she could finish, Rong Yan interrupted, “You mean you should have drowned me in the toilet earlier?”

Jiang Meiqi was caught off guard by the interruption and choked on her words.

“If I had known I would be taken in by Mrs. Rong, I too would have wished I had drowned earlier.” She was incredibly calm, so calm that it made Jiang Meiqi inexplicably fearful.

“I’ve told you, I owe you nothing, and I owe the Rong Family nothing. My conscience is clear with regard to you and the Rong Family!”

Not to mention the things Weiwei had done, just the fact that Weiwei had almost drowned Little Baby — Rong Yan hadn’t killed Weiwei, and that was her showing restraint out of consideration for Jiang Meiqi’s feelings.

As for Rong Nanfeng, she had almost died for Rong Mu last time in the Dark Night, and she had already settled that score.

She had paid it back as if pulling muscles and bones out, giving it all back to these people of the Rong Family!

Therefore, she owed Jiang Meiqi nothing. And Jiang Meiqi didn’t need to keep bringing up the fact that she had raised her for over a decade, not to mention Jiang Meiqi had only done so unwillingly. She had done it because she was afraid of Rong Nanfeng finding out, and to maintain her status as a lady of wealth and rank, she had no choice.

Even if it weren’t for that, the near drowning of Little Baby and her own near violation by a group of ruffians — weren’t those enough to repay her?

And there was five years ago.

If she hadn’t met Li Shengxiao five years ago but someone like the old man Huang Youde, did they think she didn’t know what would have happened to her?

Why did they take it for granted that because they gave her food, she should allow them to frame her, to exploit her?

Even the greatest of affections can wear out over time, let alone that Jiang Meiqi never had any affection for her, just revulsion!

Rong Yan looked at her, already taller than Jiang Meiqi. Plus, having spent time with Li Shengxiao, she had unintentionally taken on some of his aura, putting intense pressure on Jiang Meiqi who looked extremely distressed, “The title of Miss Rong that you keep talking about — I’ve never cared about it, nor have I ever used it to gain anything. So, in the future, my Rong will just be the Rong in Rong Yan, with no relation to you, or to the Rong Family. Whether you want to acknowledge Weiwei again… that’s your business, and I won’t interfere.”

Jiang Meiqi, flustered and exasperated, furrowed her brows, “What nonsense are you talking about? I never said I wouldn’t recognize you. Even if you’re not my daughter, you’re still a member of the Rong Family and can still call me ‘Mom’.”

“I will have no further ties with the Rong Family in the future. Mrs. Rong, you should keep that term of ‘Mom’ to yourself!”

She had longed for a mother before, so desperate to be treated by Jiang Meiqi like she treated Weiwei, dreaming about it so often that it haunted her dreams.

Now that Jiang Meiqi was claiming to be her mother, it was truly unnecessary.

She had yearned, she had wanted, but now she no longer needed it. @@novelbin@@

Beyond family, she had that man. And she had Little Baby!

Little Baby was her family too. Even if her Rong Yan had nothing to do with the Rong Family, she still had her own kin.

She didn’t need Jiang Meiqi’s pity for familial affection anymore.

After saying her piece, she turned and walked away.

Seeing her leave, Jiang Meiqi’s heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively reached out to grab her, “Rong Yan.”

But she grasped at air, as Rong Yan left decisively, her back ramrod straight, not looking back, just as she had been when she was driven out of the Rong Family five years ago.
