Chapter 1796: Reputation in the Ruins (3)
Fang Tongtong was momentarily stunned when she heard what her mother said. She turned to look at her mother. She felt a little unsure as she asked,
Why did she return and at such a point in time? Isn’t it as good as asking to be gossiped about?

At the same time, Fang Tongtong’s thought of another possibility.

Could it be that Ye Qianqian returned to get even with me?


Pooh!
Fury flashed across Mrs. Fang’s face as she replied,
To get even with you? She should count herself lucky that I’m not getting back at her for this. If she hadn’t brought you over to stay in her house, would such a thing have happened? That brat is really inhuman!


Mom…
Fang Tongtong felt a little awkward.
You know that that’s not the case. Now that you’ve put it that way, people are talking about us everywhere. Won’t everyone think that I’ve been toyed with then? Are you actually my mom?


What the hell do you know!
Mrs. Fang reached out her hand and stabbed her finger at Fang Tongtong’s head with a look of frustration over her failure to live up to her expectations.
If I hadn’t said so, would this incident have blown up? Don’t you like that lad? If I hadn’t blown this matter up, would you be able to be with him? Would he have broken up with Ye Qianqian? Aren’t you a fool?


Even if you caused things to develop to this state, how terrible my reputation must be!

The more Fang Tongtong thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She angrily scolded,
Why would I have a mom like you? Did you know that right now, others are pointing fingers at me the minute I step out of the house? Even if this incident wasn’t real to begin with, it would become real!


You foolish girl. I’m only doing this for your own good. Didn’t Ye Qianqian break up with that man?

Fang Tongtong nodded her head. Her eyes turned slightly red.

That’s right. Give that man a call and ask what is he going to do now that everyone knows about what happened between you.

When Fang Tongtong heard that, she pouted her lips. Aggrieved tears trickled down her cheeks. Nonetheless, she still nodded her head.

…
It was early autumn.
The sky began to drizzle, and the wind roared, causing one to feel sluggish and bleak.
It was rare for Ye Qianqian to see so many people in her house when she returned home. The atmosphere was lively.
Ye Youyou and Li Jinnan tagged behind Ye Qianqian and walked alongside each other in silence as they entered the house.
The people who came and went were all relatives whom they had not seen in a long time. When they saw Ye Qianqian, some of them began to whisper in hushed tones while others merely nodded their head slightly and smiled before they brushed past her.
In Ye Qianqian’s heart, she knew they paid special attention to her because of the recent rumors.
Furthermore, those were negative rumors about her.
Ye Qianqian turned a blind eye to it. After she entered the house, she made her way straight into her grandfather’s room.
Ye Qianqian’s father was attending to her grandfather as he rested on the bed. Her grandfather’s hair was as white as snow, and his eyes were so deep-set that it was quite ghastly to look at.
However, he still had his usual kind look in his eyes. When he saw Ye Qianqian enter the room, he called out in his hoarse voice,
Qianqian.

Ye Qianqian’s eyes instantly turned red. Walking over, she took his bony hands from Ye Zhenhua and called out,
Grandpa.

Ye Youyou, who was behind her, walked over.
She did not have many feelings toward this elderly man, but during times like this, she still felt a little depressed and forlorn.
When the elderly man saw Ye Youyou, he tried hard to form a smile on his face as he called out,
Hey, Youyou…

Ye Youyou’s eyes stung.
Grandpa, you still remember me.


Actually, Grandpa remembers everyone.
Ye Zhenhua stood up and walked over to stand next to Li Jinnan.
Jinnan, say a few words to Grandpa.
