"Let go!"

...

Thus, Ye Shiyu’s hand that had just been raised stiffened mid-air.

"Ding ding ding~"

At that moment, Ye Lan’s cellphone suddenly rang again.

This time, there wasn’t even a need for her to call Yan Huan; instead, Yan Huan called herself.

Looking at the caller ID "Xiao Huan" on the phone screen, Ye Shiyu showed a faintly panicked expression and shook her head at her own mother.

But Ye Lan just glanced at her and then answered the call.

"Hello, Xiao Huan, how is Bai Yi’s mother doing?"

Ye Lan turned on the speakerphone and greeted Yan Huan.

"Aunt Ye, I was just about to tell you. She’s physically fine; it’s just that she seems to have been frightened and keeps muttering something..."

At this point, Yan Huan paused briefly and softly said,

"’They will stay away from them’ or something like that."

...

Ye Lan looked up at Ye Shiyu, who was pale in front of her, and then listened as Yan Huan continued over the phone,

"We’ve already brought Aunt Zuo down and notified Bai Yi too..."

"Okay, I got it, Xiao Huan. And for now, I’ll have to trouble you with that end; Auntie has something to take care of here for a bit."

"Mm, alright, Auntie, then I’ll hang up first."

The moment the phone call ended, Ye Shiyu couldn’t wait to start explaining,

"Just now, my anger wasn’t only because of Xiao Huan, but also that person with the surname Zuo..."

Having said that, Ye Shiyu told Ye Lan everything that Zuo Jiangqin had said.

But after listening, not only did Ye Lan not soften up, she became even angrier and stretched out her hand to fiercely poke Ye Shiyu’s forehead,

"I think you’ve truly gone mad, Ye Shiyu!!"

Ye Lan poked Ye Shiyu’s forehead still unable to vent her anger and then stretched out her index finger and jabbed her countless times,

"Do you really think you’re some noble heiress? Haven’t learned anything of value at Lin Gate, but all these bad habits and the heiress’s foul temper you’ve mastered without a teacher!"

"Ugh..."

"Who do you think you are? Have I given you too many good days before? Is that why you’ve become such a freak who would infringe on your own brother and bully people less fortunate than you, a downright disgrace?"

Ye Lan clenched her fist and knocked on Ye Shiyu’s forehead over and over, with gritted teeth, the whole person both angry and sad, herself almost crying first.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do? Raise you through hardships, educate you, and in the end, you turn out like this...

"Don’t let me be the one to directly tell Xiao Huan; anyway, just now Xiao Huan saw you going upstairs with Bai Yi’s mother. Now that Bai Yi’s mother has become like this, do you think Xiao Huan is a fool?

"Or you can just go to jail, I can’t manage you anymore anyway. And no need to go to school, maybe sit in for a few years and see if it’s effective?"

Well, it looks like Ye Shiyu is on the way to a complete change, turning into "Prison Ye."

"I’ve told you what to do before, how can you not control yourself? Tell me, huh?"

Looking at Ye Lan, who was about to be enraged into a heart attack, Ye Shiyu couldn’t help letting a tear spill from her eyes.

Biting her lip, she raised her hand to wipe the corner of her eye and began to explain,

"Mom, I just... Whenever I think of someone else trying to take away Xiao Huan, take away you, take away anything from our home, I can’t help it... I really... I really can’t hold back..."

"You can’t hold back..."

Ye Lan bit her teeth, but when she raised her eyes to look at Ye Shiyu’s tearful eyes and her pained expression with her lips bitten, she suddenly thought of things from Ye Shiyu’s childhood. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

She suddenly remembered, when this child first moved houses with her, how she held onto the toy that no longer belonged to her and huddled in a corner unwilling to leave, her face filled with distress.

Perhaps it was because she had seen this pitiable state of hers that Ye Lan could understand the meaning of "possession" to her.

She thought, as long as she could better her own circumstances and give her daughter more and better things, she could make up for the loss of everything when her daughter followed her and left the family with nothing.

Now it seems it was all in vain.

Giving her more would not fill that void; conversely, taking away anything of hers would only continue to widen it.

Yet, Ye Lan also understood another truth:

Past hardships cannot be used as an excuse for her daughter’s wrongdoing now, nor can they be a reason for her own leniency.

...

Ye Lan’s raised palm gradually lost strength and rested on Ye Shiyu’s shoulder.

Feeling her daughter’s trembling body, Ye Lan lowered her eyes, sighed, and said,

"If you can’t hold back, then let me help you. I’ll make a plan to help you correct your bad habits. Later, I’ll have someone supervise your every word and deed.

"Before, I would consider your inability to control yourself somewhat understandable; it was my negligence in discipline.

"But after I correct it, if you still want to defy me, then I will assume you are beyond redemption..."

Ye Lan expressionlessly raised her eyes and stared into Ye Shiyu’s eyes, causing her to feel goosebumps,

"Since you also like handicrafts, get ready to go in and tread the sewing machine for me."

...

Ye Shiyu swallowed and averted her gaze slightly, stuttering,

"I... I understand, Mom."

From her voice, it was clear that Ye Shiyu had reluctantly submitted, but Ye Lan still stared at her expressionlessly.

After a second of silence, Ye Lan suddenly stretched out her hand and said to her,

"Give me your phone."

"Huh?"

"After a while, I’ll let professionals install a system on it. So I can monitor in real-time whether you’re harassing Xiao Huan, looking at strange things."
