401: The Chuxiong couple wants to see their two daughters? Get them out!!!

Tang Family Villa.

The dining table was laden with mouth-watering delicacies.

The braised pork was a vibrant red, its aroma tantalizing; the steamed fish was tender and delicious, exuding the freshness of the ocean; the crisp green vegetables were fragrant, as if telling of nature's bounty... All kinds of delicious food, like a colorful painting, continuously emitted an enticing aroma, stimulating the taste buds...

“Come, Xiao Ling. (￣∀￣)Ψ Eat more nutritious fish, shrimp, and meat. You should be consuming a moderate amount of high-quality protein now to supplement your body's needs.”

“Yes, yes, yes! Also, drink more chicken soup and eat fresh vegetables; they are not only easy to digest but also easily absorbed by the body.”

“By the way, what fruits do you like? Kiwis, apples, bananas, or strawberries? I'll have Wang Ma wash them beforehand so you can get some vitamins later.”

“...”

Chu Ling felt a little uneasy, sitting at the dining table, being spoon-fed by Tang Guoan and his wife.

Looking at the large bowl of “delicacies from land and sea” in front of her, she softly said “thank you” and then gently picked up a piece of braised pork with her chopsticks, putting it into her mouth.

In an instant, the lean and fatty meat danced on her tongue, and the rich sauce filled her mouth. Chu Ling almost cried tears of happiness.

She chewed slowly, as if to keep this deliciousness in her memory forever.

Immediately after.

Chu Ling eagerly picked up another piece of fish. The tenderness of the steamed fish gave her an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.

Soon, she started eating with gusto again... This was the first time in her eighteen years that she had eaten so many precious and delicious dishes.

It formed a stark contrast to her past dark life.

In those days, she suffered abuse at Mr. and Mrs. Chu Xiong's house, often going hungry, barely able to achieve the most basic warmth and sustenance.

Her daily food was leftovers, sometimes even just some unpalatable coarse grains or pig slop.

Her stomach had long been accustomed to the bland, even somewhat spoiled taste of food.

At that time, her biggest dream was to have a normal bowl of white rice porridge, just like her peers.

Whenever she recalled that darkest period of her life, Chu Ling's heart would ache, and she would grit her teeth in anger at Mr. and Mrs. Chu Xiong!!!

“Ling'er, eat slowly, don't choke.”

“There's still a lot of delicious food in the kitchen. Eat slowly, and if it's not enough, I'll have the chef make more...”

On the other side.

Seeing his daughter devouring the food, Tang Guoan gently advised her, his heart a mix of emotions, both relief and guilt.

Xu Shuyun silently served her daughter a bowl of chicken soup, tears glistening in her eyes.

The couple sat quietly opposite Chu Ling, who was eating, looking at her frail body and pale face, their eyes filled with heartache for their daughter.

They could hardly imagine how much suffering their biological daughter had endured in the past years...

At this moment, Tang Guoan and his wife secretly vowed to spend the rest of their lives making up for their shortcomings towards their daughter, letting her feel the warmth and happiness of a family.

At the same time, their hatred for Mr. and Mrs. Chu Xiong reached its peak!!!!!

These two beasts... really deserve to die!!!!!

Perhaps feeling a little self-conscious from being stared at, Chu Ling blushed and put down her chopsticks, saying:

“Dad, Mom, you... you guys eat too. Don't keep staring at me, it's so embarrassing. (✿◡‿◡)”

“Hahaha... Wife, let's eat! Xiao Ling is getting shy because of us.”

“Alright, (❛ᴗ❛) eat, eat, eat! It's good to eat more! 18 is a time for growing!”

“...”

Just like that, the family enjoyed themselves, chatting happily.

In their harmonious interactions, Chu Ling gradually became more at ease, even starting to joke with Tang Guoan and his wife.

As they joked, her tears silently fell again, but these were not tears of sadness, but tears of happiness.

Looking at the smiles on the couple's faces, Chu Ling's heart was filled with gratitude and warmth, grateful that her biological parents had given her a real home, allowing her to rekindle her hope for life.

She finally experienced the feeling of being loved, finally no longer the poor girl who couldn't get enough to eat, but a lucky person with a happy family who could enjoy delicious food...

Only the quiet Tang Rou, who was silently eating with her head down, was in an extremely bad mood.

She looked at the harmonious family at the dining table.

For the first time in her life, she felt so superfluous, unable to find even a trace of family warmth.

It used to be her who Dad Tang and Mom Tang eagerly served food, but now...

Tang Rou never expected... that one day, these two would be so biased, heartlessly abandoning her, the daughter they had raised for eighteen years, after finding their biological daughter.

Eighteen years!

She had called them Dad and Mom for a full eighteen years!!!

Such filial piety and respect, yet it couldn't warm the couple's hearts???

Thinking back to all these years, how well-behaved and sensible she had been, excelling in both character and academics, bringing great honor to the couple when they were out; wasn't she a hundred times better than Chu Ling, that country bumpkin from the countryside?!!!

But what about Dad Tang and Mom Tang?

As soon as they found their biological daughter, they discarded her like a used tool, completely disregarding her years of hard work and dedication.

Hmph!

Is this what they call a prominent wealthy family? Truly cold-blooded and heartless!!!

Just because they are not biological, because of different bloodlines, they treat their two daughters differently, allowing that sickly girl to ride roughshod over her?!!!!

Sigh~~~

I even used to think... about taking care of this couple in their old age... Now I just consider myself blind, having misjudged people, damn it!!!!!

Two and a half minutes later, the Tang Family, each with their own thoughts, finally finished dinner and were sitting on the sofa eating strawberries when...

The white-haired old housekeeper walked over and respectfully inquired:

“Sir, Madam, news has come from the detention center. Mr. and Mrs. Chu Xiong are insisting on meeting Miss Ling.”

“What?! Those two scoundrels! They still have the nerve to make such a request? Want to see Xiao Ling? Are they even worthy???!”

As soon as the old housekeeper finished speaking, Tang Guoan's face was covered in frost, and he laughed in extreme anger.

Beside him, Xu Shuyun's smile also froze, instantly turning as dark as water, and she coldly replied:

“Tell them! No!!!”

The couple weren't fools.

Mr. and Mrs. Chu Xiong coming to see their daughter at this time was nothing more than an attempt to plead for mercy, hoping the Tang Family would show leniency and let them go.

But was that possible?! Ridiculous!!!

Didn't they have any self-awareness of how they had abused their precious daughter all these years?

And they still... have the nerve to ask for forgiveness??? Where do they get the audacity?!!! (•́へ•́╬)
