If You Are A Dodder Flower Chapter 26 Part2

She let out a sigh and silently walked back to her room.

It turned out that a girl could put herself and her pride down just for her own greed, and it wasn't a pleasant sight…

Although she hadn't gone to the extent of having no boundaries, but… In the eyes of the Cao Family, it still didn't look good, right?

It didn't look good, which was probably why Cao Xiong didn't want to bother with her in her past life…

Hot water spilled from the showerhead, spreading the sound of falling water.

Xia Rou closed her eyes, raising her head to let the hot water run directly on her face…

And slowly, she lowered her head to cover her face with her hands…

The next day, Lady Fang, who had worked in the Cao Family for over a decade, resigned without a word.

He Lili thought this way: no matter how you put it, her mother had raised Cao Xing and Cao An since they were young. She had been working at the house for over ten years, and no matter what they would still be soft and be sentiment toward the mother and daughter. She had overestimated her mother's position in the household.

Just as Lady Fang had told her before, she worked under the Cao Family. They paid her well - much better than other places would. That so-called sentiment between Lady Fang and the Cao Family was He Lili's misconception.

In exchange for the bloodstain on the bed was only Cao Yang's cold laughter and disdainful gaze.

Inside Cao Yang's study, He Lili was so embarra.s.sed to be facing her mother's unamused face.

She had never thought Cao Yang's heart would be so tough.

In order to make it more realistic she'd even torn her own hymen. But all she got in return was a scornful disdain.

"If you want I can call someone from public security to examine. The bedsheet doesn't have any trace of sperm," he said coldly without any expression. The fact that he was facing a naked young woman with a helpless expression didn't seem to affect him at all.

He wasn't stupid; how could he not know whether or not he'd done it? He was drunk to the point of falling down and it wasn't like he was a violent man, to make her bleed so much in that kind of state.

A truly drunk man wouldn't be able to give any response. In situations with the so-called losing control after getting drunk - the man is definitely not the real person who was drunk.

Not to mention that he didn't even do it with her. If he had, it was just a matter of giving her some money.

Ever since Cao Xiong had sat on the position of the commander of the army, the crown prince of the Cao Family had encountered many women trying to seduce him.

When it came to a woman like her who had the courage to scheme like this, he wouldn't even compensate her.

But he did write a check and tried to hand it to Lady Fang. "This is to compensate your resignation. Thank you for your hard work during all these years."

There wasn't even a chance for them to redeem themselves.

He placed the check on the desk and left.

Lady Fang struggled internally for a long while, but in the end she still took it. She felt embarra.s.sed but she had just lost her job, and her daughter was just getting on her feet. She had no choice but to keep her head down.

She slapped He Lili across the face.

"Is this how you act, as my daughter?" She was so angry that her lips were quivering.

He Lili cried out sadly. Translated by The Novelst

She'd never imagined that Cao Yang would be so cruel to her.

She didn't dare hope for more. All she wanted was to follow him and be at his side. She didn't dare think about receiving a t.i.tle.

If she had a child by him then perhaps she could marry into wealth. But just by depending on her loss of innocence? In this day and age?

She had thought if she created this kind of situation, then Cao Yang would at least be kind to her. But he hadn't - a man as forceful as Cao Yang would definitely not allow someone to pull the wool over his eyes.

She discovered this when she'd looked into his eyes, but it was too bad that this realization came too late.

She was upset and regretful.

She regretted, and resented.

Cao Yang had found a position for her at a big company. Though the headquarters weren't in the city, the money was good, enough that her friend were jealous of her.

That evening, she'd stood in front of the window from afar, looking at the mesmerizing outfits… She realized she was too far from that world. A years' worth of her salary could probably afford only one of those dresses.

Not even to mention the accessories at the necks and wrists of the attendees, diamonds and pearls gleaming brightly under the lights.

Those glittering lights had blinded her eyes. Compared to them her salary was measly.

Did she really have to continue living this way?

And at that time she'd seen Xia Rou.

Xia Rou was wearing a decently pretty dress, and a gleaming light trailed her movements when her wrist moved.

She was nothing but a mistress' child!

But even when her position was that low, she had a much better life than any average woman.

At that moment the thought she'd had fleetingly in the past had returned with unprecedented strength.

When all the guests had left, her feet had led her to the empty banquet, only waiters remaining to clean up the mess.

She was a little disappointed as she walked into the main building. But then she'd seen a waiter supporting Cao Yang toward the washroom. Her heart had skipped a beat. She quickly chased after them, but they'd already entered the washroom.

So she waited in the corridor patiently for them to come out. Cao Yang was truly dead drunk. If no one supported him, he couldn't even walk by himself.

Her heartbeat thudded quickly and she quickly spoke out, "Why are you so drunk?" She then stretched out her arms to grab him.

The waiter didn't recognize her. His job was only to serve the guests at the banquet and he needed to tidy up.

So he'd handed over the guest of honor to the young woman who seemed to be very close to him, and promptly left.

This was how He Lili got her chance. Translated by The Novelst

In order to obtain that chance, she even sacrificed her virginity, but she'd underestimated the cruelness of that man.

She'd arrived to the Cao Family when she was young. She had no father and could only depend on her mother.

She always felt that Cao Yang had some tender affection for her and her situation.

In the end she finally understood. Cao Yang merely pitied her.

Only Cao Yang's feelings toward Xia Rou could be seen as tender affection.
