Before Zhaoyang could say anything, her mother dragged her upstairs . It was not easy as Zhaoyang struggled like a fish out of water . "Let me go! Let me go!" The more Zhaoyang heard the whipping, the harder she thrashed . Her mother moved rather hastily nevertheless . They had already gotten into the room as the door was slammed shut .
"I said—let me go!" Zhaoyang swept her mother's arms away .
"Lu Zhao Yang . Aren't you great? Hooking up with Huo Chen? Did you not know that he's your UNCLE?" Madam Xue glared at her .
"What's wrong even if he's my uncle? You haven't known your husband when we were dating!" Lu Zhaoyang made a fierce comeback .
Well, she technically was not bonded with Chen but the elopement was already a giveaway announcing their unusual relationship .
Madam Xue panted heavily as rage was boiling in her, "If that was the past, fine . What about NOW? You NOW know he's your uncle, yet you decided to run away with him! How can you be such a shameless child!"
If eloping with Chen would be labelled as being shameless, imagine if Zhaoyang's mother knew what happened to Zhaoyang and Huo Yunting .
"Well, and here I am, coming back home after a runaway so that you can stay here peacefully with your new husband . Regarding Chen and I, you need not to worry, it is nothing close to what you all imagined . Even if we *were* dating, what's the problem with that? Chen had made it clear . We aren't blood-related . So, there's no incest!"
I mean seriously, mom, stop being so dramatic . My nomical brother, Huo Yunting is already my husband . So what's wrong to date my nomical uncle?
"Chen? You aren't supposed to call that . You… You…" Madam Xue could no longer hold her forceful palm as it landed a hit right on Zhaoyang's face .
… Mommy?
As far as I could remember as a child, mommy and I had always been the friendliest, happiest mother-and-daughter in the neighborhood . She was gentle and forgiving—never once she had hit me before .

Not this hard…
It felt like a scorching imprintment on her sin .
"Can you be anymore shameless? What did I do to deserve all this? I warn you, Lu Zhao Yang, do not, I repeat, DO NOT see him anymore, TODAY onwards!" Madam Xue patted her pounding chests in pain . She never imagined things going like this before .
"Okay . You are done with your lecture . " Lu Zhaoyang stared at her mother, clenching her fist, "You can leave now . "
"Lu Zhao Yang!" Her mother screamed .
What attitude is this? What do you mean by those words? Do you think you could avoid responsibilities by chasing me away?

"Have I not been obeying you all? You wanted me home so I came . You wanted me to not take the whips for Chen, I did so too . What more do you want? Do you want me to have a talk-to with the law of Huo family as well?"
My own mother turning against me . When I chose to take all these agonies, when I chose my mother over my own freedom, she chose somebody else…
Who else could I rely on other than Chen?
"S-stay in your room! Do not have anything else going on with him anymore! You two can never be together . Granny would not allow it . I will not allow it either!" Madam Xue gave a last snort before leaving the room hurriedly .
Lu Zhaoyang froze there for the next few minutes, as she felt her cheeks sizzling in ache .

I knew we both can't make it . I don't need everyone else in this house to remind me .
She then heard more footsteps coming from the corridor . A few people hit upstairs .
Right! Chen's room is just next door!
Zhaoyang ran to the door so frantically that she nearly tripped herself .
I must see him! I hope he's alright!
The moment she peeked through her door, she saw a group of people entering Chen's room .
Chen was there too .
