Chapter 661: Chapter 658: She Noticed Something Was Wrong

Wen Yuci stepped into the Wen family villa, and Mother Wen came to greet her.

Seeing her mother’s emaciated and haggard appearance, the guilt within Wen Yuci’s heart deepened even more.

"Mom—"

She handed the gift to Mother Wen.

After Mother Wen took it, she set it aside and grabbed Wen Yuci’s hand, "You heartless girl, not coming back to see your mother for so many years!"

Wen Yuci’s eyes were wet, "Mom, I’m sorry."

She knew that when she fled her wedding years ago, she had turned her mother into a laughingstock once again.

Mother Wen gazed at her stunningly beautiful daughter, feeling a mix of pain and resentment in her heart.

She had hoped her daughter would stand out, but what happened?

She didn’t follow Mother Wen’s arrangements at all and instead, started a relationship with Fu Yunshen!

Mother Wen wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and thinking that Yuci would marry Fu Ziyuan after tonight, her mood somewhat improved.

Mother Wen pulled Wen Yuci into the dining room.

Seeing the table full of dishes, Wen Yuci’s eyes revealed a touched expression.

"Mom, everything you’ve made is my favorite."

"It’s been so long since I’ve had your cooking, you should eat more later."

Wen Yuci nodded, "Okay."

Mother Wen pulled Wen Yuci to sit down and brought out the soup.

"Try the soup I’ve been slow-cooking for hours."

Wen Yuci took a spoonful and tasted it, "It’s delicious."

Seeing the smile in Wen Yuci’s eyes, a flicker passed through Mother Wen’s gaze.

"If it’s delicious, drink more."

The dinner passed, and the atmosphere between mother and daughter was fairly harmonious.

Wen Yuci wanted to stay at home a bit longer, but thinking of Zhi Xia, she was eager to return to her apartment.

As she stood up, her head suddenly felt dizzy.

Mother Wen quickly supported Wen Yuci, "Do you feel unwell anywhere?"

Wen Yuci looked at Mother Wen, her vision slightly blurry, "I feel a bit dizzy."

"Mom will help you to your room."

Mother Wen helped Wen Yuci to her room, "Rest for a while, don’t leave tonight."

After Mother Wen left the room, Wen Yuci rubbed her head, feeling that something was amiss.

She was fine a moment ago, so why did she feel so dizzy?

Moreover, her mother was out of character tonight, speaking many heartfelt words, and she didn’t display her usual assertiveness.

Wen Yuci got up from the bed and went to the bathroom to wash her face with cold water.

A feeling of restlessness began to surge within her.

She quickly realized something was wrong.

Could her mother have tampered with the food?

At this thought, her blood ran cold.

Wen Yuci went to the door, pulled on it, and as she suspected, it was locked from the outside.

Her fingers braced against the doorframe, she felt the world spin around her.

Why would she do this?

She had prepared to deepen her guilt tonight and planned to repair her relationship with her mother henceforth.

Her mother’s sudden actions had plunged her back into hell!

Who did her mother want her to spend the night with?

Fu Ziyuan?

Why did she like Fu Ziyuan so much? Even if Fu Ziyuan was deeply in love with her, since she had been with Yunshen before and had embarrassed Fu Ziyuan twice, could he truly still treat her well?

Wouldn’t any man mind that?

Fu Ziyuan hadn’t shown it because he hadn’t gotten her yet. Once he had her, wouldn’t he give her the most humiliating shame?

Over the years, Wen Yuci had seen too much of the ugly side of human nature while outside!

Only her mother was still being bewitched by Fu Ziyuan!

Wen Yuci bit her tongue hard and tasted the metallic blood.

The rusty taste of blood gave her a moment of clarity.

She had to leave immediately!
