Chapter 513: 513 It’s too late!

After Lian Yinseng left, Shi Lan’s relatives from her maternal family all received the news and rushed to Lian Yinseng’s house.

A room full of people, young and old, all took seats on the sofa and pointed at Lian Qingyi’s nose, scolding, "What’s the use of having you if this is how you turn out? Do you want to drive your whole family to ruin before you’re satisfied?"

"Qingyi, go out and apologize, even if it’s for your brother’s sake," said Lian Qingyi’s maternal grandfather.

"You must go out and apologize. If you had done so earlier, none of this would have happened. If you refuse to apologize, we’ll stay right here and keep an eye on you. We’ll leave when you’re willing to do things for your parents," declared Lian Qingyi’s eldest uncle.

"Simply disgraceful. If you had apologized sooner, would any of this have happened? You’ve crushed the family!"

Shi Lan’s relatives from her maternal side, one after the other, drove Lian Qingyi mad in the living room.

Facing the accusations of her whole family, and their hatred, she could only scream hysterically, "I’ll apologize! Isn’t apologizing enough for you?"

Fearful that Lian Qingyi would regret it, Shi Lan took Lian Qingyi with her to find the journalists again that very morning, and they recorded an apology video at the newspaper office.

On camera, Lian Qingyi looked exhausted, her eyes red and swollen. Although the wounds on her face were specially concealed, traces could still be seen.

Standing against a white wall, she didn’t dare lift her head, knowing how humiliating it was.

"I am Lian Qingyi. I am here to apologize to Granny Chen. I should not have fabricated lies and slandered you on the forum. I was wrong. Could you please forgive me?"

The apology video was very short; Lian Qingyi herself felt wronged more than anyone else.

The journalists from the newspaper were speechless. Was this an apology, or just a task to be completed?

After these words, Lian Qingyi adamantly refused to appear on camera again. Who would believe this was a heartfelt apology?

In the end, the journalist also gave up, saying, "Sending this out, your whole family will only face more severe cyberbullying. Apologize sincerely if you want to apologize; if not, stop the pretense and don’t waste everyone’s time."

Shi Lan knew the other party made sense and asked Lian Qingyi, "Do you really want to apologize or not?"

"I don’t want to," Lian Qingyi said decisively.

"Fine, then don’t apologize. From today on, don’t come back home, and don’t acknowledge me as your mother. You’ve graduated years ago, it’s high time you supported yourself. Your father and I have done all we can," said Shi Lan, turning to leave.

Only then did Lian Qingyi realize the seriousness of the situation and tried to reach out to stop Shi Lan.

Shi Lan deftly stepped aside and raised her hands, saying, "Don’t touch me."

"Mom..."

"Scram!" After saying that one word, Shi Lan put down her hands and quickly left the newspaper office, leaving Lian Qingyi alone in the lobby, at a loss.

However, her pitiful appearance didn’t garner any sympathy because everyone knew that the situation had developed to this point through her own doing; no one else was to blame!

Lian Qingyi thought, Shi Lan was just angry. Once her mother’s anger dissipated, everything would be fine.

But when Lian Qingyi returned to the front door of her house, she found her luggage placed outside, and all her relatives looked at her coldly.

"Mom... what are you doing?"

Seeing her return, Shi Lan pushed the suitcase toward her and said, "From now on, you are no longer my daughter."

Saying this, Shi Lan moved to close the door, but Lian Qingyi blocked it: "Mom, don’t do this, I was wrong, I really realize my mistake, give me another chance. I will make a proper apology video, believe me."

However, Lian’s wife didn’t hesitate at all and directly kicked her out, "It’s too late!"

From now on, if anyone else causes any trouble, she could tell them directly that the Lian family no longer has a person named Lian Qingyi.

After Lian Qingyi was kicked out, she kept banging on the family door, but no one would open it for her again.

Lian’s wife then made a video saying, "That person has been kicked out, so, please don’t come to me or my son for anything in the future, as if I never birthed this daughter."

Lian’s wife posted the video on her social media platform, and then it garnered strong attention.

Not long after, journalists chasing the story found their way to the door of Lian Yinseng’s home.

Lian Qingyi, who was hiding nearby, saw journalists arriving and quickly left with her suitcase in tow.

But where could she go?

The world is vast, yet she seemed to have nowhere to go.

...

From the phone calls received and various news seen online, it was clear.

Lian Yinseng’s family had completely fallen apart.

Shi Lan didn’t have any sympathy for this family, because at the root of it all was Lian Yinseng, the rotten core; with the foundation crooked, all that laid upon it was unstable.

Old Madame Lian blamed herself for many days, as she felt she hadn’t properly taught Lian Yinseng and had let Old Madame Chen suffer such humiliation and harm, causing such a big impact and burden on society, wasting both public resources and time.

That’s why there was the last step from Shi Lan.

A letter written by Old Madame Lian herself, addressed to netizens.

The letter was divided into three parts: the first part mainly expressed her apology for the failure to properly educate her son, with Old Madame Lian’s beautiful handwriting and sincere diction bearing the brunt of all the negative consequences, even though it wasn’t her fault.

The second part primarily spoke of Chen Yunlian’s kindness towards Lian Yinseng and the ingratitude Lian Yinseng’s family had shown her. This was the first time the Lian family publicly disclosed the actual facts behind the scenes.

The third part was a plea for everyone not to associate the character of an individual with the entire Lian family, as there were still many descendants of the Lian family guarding their homeland without fault.

Old Madame Lian poured out the untold backstories of the secretive Lian family in a grieving tone and with the utmost sincerity, as if speaking as a heartbroken mother.

This letter provided a definitive closure to the whole affair.

Netizens, upon seeing the pictures and reading the letter, could feel the old woman’s anguish and guilt.

@Vin Sweetie: "Reading the letter made me cry, imagining the old woman wearing reading glasses, bending over the writing, it’s just too tear-jerking."

@Little Joe Striving for Strength: "You can tell from the old woman’s letter, she is truly kind, and so is Old Madame Chen; it’s a pity, the son is ungrateful, I apologize, it’s just a few ungrateful sons."

@Little Did I Know: "Although it’s a belated letter, it still puts a full stop to this matter. Even though Lian Qingyi never came out to apologize in the end, seeing her being kicked out of her home feels more satisfying than an apology."

@Stay in Autumn: "How heartbroken must the old woman be? Each word trembles. I also know some descendants of the Lian family, some of whom are truly serving in the military to protect our country, they are not all like Lian Yinseng’s family, so I hope everyone will be lenient with their words and let this matter pass."

@Chu Ci: "Old Madame Lian, indeed a person of dignity."
