Chapter 1395: Chapter 1395: No Presence at All

Ye Mingmei became more and more agitated as she spoke, and finally, she sat down on the nearby sofa, grabbed a cushion, and propped it under her chin, puffing her cheeks.

It seemed like she was the one being attacked by the media.

"I remember you didn’t like Youxuan before."

Su Yiru didn’t look at the newspaper, but folded it and put it aside.

She should have foreseen the media’s attacks when she decided to sue Qin Youxuan.

All of this probably still had something to do with the Yu family.

The guilt in Su Yiru’s heart was unspeakable; she could only choose to ignore it to feel a bit better.

But what Ye Mingmei said was rather unexpected.

"Before was before, now is now. She has changed a lot, and she’s no longer as fierce to me as before. I was naive before, everyone around me flattered me, and I acted like a princess. Now I realize that without mom and dad, I am nothing."

Ye Mingmei bowed her head, her tone somewhat melancholic.

Her fingers fiddled with the cushion, mumbling.

"Qin Youxuan is different, she lives a dazzling life. Even when she’s not Miss Ye, the confidence she carries makes me gnash my teeth in envy..."

That bright smile, that nobility radiating from her bones, really fascinated people.

"I’m glad you think this way, mom is very pleased."

Su Yiru sat next to her, took her hand, and placed it on her own lap.

With a serious and affectionate tone, "Mom always believed you are a kind child, so even if it costs everything, mom will protect you from getting hurt."

"Thank you, mom."

Ye Mingmei emotionally threw herself into Su Yiru’s arms.

Acting like a child, "As long as I have mom, I’m not afraid of anything."

"..."

Su Yiru’s eyes flickered, crossing a complex expression.

Looking at her daughter brimming with smiles, she couldn’t imagine what it would be like if she knew about the existence of those photos.

"Mom, you haven’t told me yet, why did you suddenly sue Qin Youxuan?"

Ye Mingmei sat up from her embrace and stared at her fixedly.

"If Qin Youxuan hadn’t appeared, those things originally belonged to you, wouldn’t you want them?" Su Yiru countered.

"..."

Ye Mingmei frowned slightly, nodded her head, and then shook her head.

Su Yiru looked at her puzzledly.

She bit her lip, then spoke, "What I want, is only mom and dad."

"..."

"I admit, at first I also thought those things were mine, so I disliked Qin Youxuan when she first appeared. But later, I slowly realized, I disliked her not because she was going to snatch the Ye Family’s inheritance, but because once she appeared, she became the most loved person by mom and dad. With Qin Youxuan around, everyone’s attention was only focused on her, and I felt utterly insignificant..."

Ye Mingmei’s eyes became melancholic.

Recalling herself back then, she felt like a Cinderella who had lost her glass slipper.

In an instant, all that was left was a gloomy room and a body clad in rags.

"It was mom’s words that enlightened me, not to fight for things that don’t belong to me, to live more easily, and besides, dad left us so much, even without the Ye family’s shares, I could live a carefree life."

Ye Mingmei laughed with relief and looked at Su Yiru with pure eyes.

"Moreover, I have hands and feet, and I’m a top student from GW, even if I go out to work, supporting mom and myself won’t be a problem."
