Chapter 380: Her Daughter's Disdain

Bai Zhi finally agreed to go home after get off work the next day after being persuaded by her parents-in-law.

Lu Zheng'an and Xie Yun were finally satisfied and went home.

When they arrived at their doorstep, they ran into Lu Ya, who had just returned home.

Lu Zheng'an and Xie Yun were quite surprised that Lu Ya came home at this time.

It's really not safe for a girl to be alone.

It's cold outside too.

"Xiaoya, why are you only coming back now? Is your internship that busy?"

As far as they knew, the job that Lu Shaoan had arranged for Lu Ya was an insignificant, idle position, and she was only in the internship stage, so it was impossible for her to be busy with work until now.

It's already eight o'clock. This girl probably went to play wildly in the back after get off work.

Lu Zheng'an looked at her, his brows furrowed.

They worried about their daughter-in-law living alone, but at least Bai Zhi's family had a regular lifestyle. Lu Ya was the one who caused the most trouble.

"Uncle, I have a lot of work to do today."

Lu Ya didn't dare to look them in the eye, but fortunately the streetlights in the courtyard weren't very bright at night.

To avoid Lu Zheng'an and Xie Yun's questioning, she walked quickly ahead.

I almost bumped into someone when I got to my front door.

Lu Ya screamed in fright and took a step back before she could see who was standing there like a wall.

She patted her chest and complained, "Mom, what are you doing standing here? You scared me to death."

"Why are you so late? What did you do after get off work?" Wang Shufen tried her best to hold back and refrained from slapping the brat across the face.

She's been waiting for her to come home since 6 p.m., and she's still waiting now.

Lu Ya explained irritably, "Mom, I just started working and there's a lot I need to learn, so I'll definitely get off work late. Why are you making such a fuss?"

"Really? Are you sure you've been working overtime the whole time?" Wang Shufen stared at her and pressed her for an answer.

Lu Ya's eyes flickered slightly, but she didn't look at her. "What else can I do? I work hard all day and only just got home at this hour. I haven't even had a hot meal yet, and instead of feeling sorry for me, you're interrogating me. You really are a good mother."

Lu Ya's complaints and sarcastic remarks instantly deflated Wang Shufen's anger.

"Who knows if you're working overtime or out fooling around with someone?"

Just as Wang Shufen finished speaking, Xie Yun and Lu Zheng'an arrived at the door.

Wang Shufen, afraid that her elder brother and sister-in-law would hear her scolding her daughter, coughed lightly and changed her words a few seconds later, "Since you're tired from working overtime, go inside and rest."

After she finished speaking, she smiled and greeted Lu Zheng'an and Xie Yun, "Big brother and sister-in-law, you're back?"

Although Wang Shufen was furious, she didn't want her older brother and his wife to know about her daughter.

Because it's extremely embarrassing.

They're brothers, but the eldest brother's two children are so outstanding, making things so easy for them.

Then look at her house, it's simply indescribable.

But Wang Shufen immediately thought that Lu Shan's personal life had also caused her family a lot of worry.

Lu Shan is almost thirty years old, and her older brother and sister-in-law are even more anxious than they are.

Thinking of this, Wang Shufen felt a little more at ease.

But she didn't dare let her older brother and sister-in-law know about Lu Ya's situation.

After all, both of their children are focused on their careers and have never caused any trouble.

Objectively speaking, her family's "love-obsessed" mentality is on a completely different level from others.

"Sister-in-law, you have to talk to Xiaoya properly. She can't come home so late anymore. Things are not peaceful outside lately. It's chaotic even during the day, let alone at night. It's really worrying to see a young girl coming home at this hour."

Upon hearing Lu Zheng'an's words, Wang Shufen smiled apologetically, "Brother, I know. Xiaoya said she's working overtime today and will go home early when things aren't so busy later."

Lu Zheng'an and Xie Yun didn't say anything more and went straight into the door.

Wang Shufen followed, only to find that Lu Ya had already gone back to her room and closed the bedroom door.

Wang Shufen stood at her door, wanting several times to break in, grab her hair, and beat her up, but remembering Bai Zhi's words, she forced herself to hold back.

In the end, she couldn't resist and knocked on Lu Ya's door.

She can refrain from using violence, but she cannot pretend that nothing happened.

She is very anxious right now.

He was eager to talk to Lu Ya.

Hearing a knock on the door, Lu Ya asked irritably, "Who is it?"

"Who else could it be?" Wang Shufen said coldly. "Besides me, who else would care about you?"

Having a child is like coming to collect a debt.

So far, she hasn't been able to rely on anything.

And they're still such a worry.

Lu Ya reluctantly opened the door, looked at Wang Shufen standing at the door, and said, "Mom, I'm tired from work today and want to go to bed early. You should rest early too."

"Rest? What rest? How can I possibly sleep?"

Wang Shufen got angry when she saw her daughter's stupid face.

Who did they take after? How could their brains be so bad?

Although Lu Hai is also clueless when it comes to matters of the heart, at least he is capable at work.

Since he's a boy, he won't suffer any losses going out, so she didn't say much.

Of course, once a son grows up, he's no longer under his mother's control. He's now the second-in-command of the coal mine, and she, a sickly housewife, has no right to say anything to him.

But Lu Ya is different. She's a girl. If she's cheated out of a little money, her family can afford it, but if she's cheated out of something else, it would be devastating.

If a girl loses her virginity, her life is over.

Lu Ya had been in a bad mood these past few days, and seeing her mother's long face targeting her made her look even worse.

"I didn't do anything to you, why are you getting angry with me?"

Wang Shufen took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

She repeatedly told herself that now was not the time to lose her temper.

When she had free time, she subtly inquired about the extent of Lu Ya's relationship with that man.

She could only ask some trivial questions first, such as, "How's work? Are you happy with it?"

“I’m not happy with my job.” Lu Ya complained about her job. “I feel that job is not suitable for me, and the salary is low. I only get eighty yuan a month during my internship.”

“It’ll be fine once you get a permanent position.” Wang Shufen said with a long face and a heavy tone, “You’ve been supported by us all this time, and you’re used to spending money like water. Do you really think money is easy to earn? Look at you, you can only earn eighty yuan a month at work, but every time you ask your dad for a thousand or eight hundred, do you really think your parents’ money grows on trees?”

Wang Shufen felt heartbroken whenever she thought about how much money that brat had taken from home and given it all to that scumbag outside.

After Wang Shufen lectured her, Lu Ya retorted impatiently, "Mom, I asked my dad for it, not you."

"Isn't your father's money money?" Wang Shufen asked, barely containing her anger.

Lu Ya muttered, "That's money my dad earned, what does it have to do with you?"

Lu Ya's words made Wang Shufen's face freeze.

Her daughter's disdainful expression chilled her to the bone.
