Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

Chapter 465 Encounter with mother

Gu Yanxi understood one thing. Whatever had happened, it had something to do with An Xiulan. He could not understand what sort of mistake An Xiulan had committed and that An Qinyan was angry to this extent. It was not a secret to anyone that An Qinyan had a soft spot for An Qinyan for everything the little girl went through in her childhood.

It was rare when An Qinyan would scold An Xiulan. But the fire in An Qinyan\'s eyes was telling a different story.

He felt stuck. Not between the two women. But between the situations. He could not do anything to relieve the tensions.

As An Xiulan saw the angry look on her mother\'s face. She knew that her game was over. Her mother knew. It already took more than her mom more than a few days to find out her secret.

She could no longer lie. Actually, she should have confessed the truth a long time ago. But she was scared to disappoint her mother.

However, at this moment, she knew that she made a big mistake by hiding the truth from her mother. If she had come clean sooner, things would not have escalated to this extent.

However, she could not do anything more than regret at this time.

"Mom," An Xiulan whispered while lowering her head. She was scared to look into her mother\'s eyes. The look of disappointment on her mother\'s face will shatter her heart and she could not take it at this moment.

If there was one person that she never wanted to disappoint, it was her mother. She never forgot about the day that gave her the chance to live the life she was leading. This miracle was possible because of her mother only. She never wished to disappoint her mother.

"An Xiulan, when were you going to confess the truth?"An Qinyan asked. "Do you have any regret for lying to your family?"

She could not bear the fact that her daughter had created such a mess and could not come to her family and confess her wrongdoings. For a moment, she began to doubt her upbringing. Did she fail somewhere as a mother?

An Xiulan could literally read the thoughts going inside her mother\'s head and began regretting everything. However, aside from being apologetic, she could not do anything, "I am sorry, Mom."

"What do I do with your sorry now?"An Qinyan looked at her daughter and asked." What could I do with your sorry now?"

Tears pooled inside her eyes and she whispered once again, "I am sorry, Mom."

"An Xiulan, it is too late for an apology."

Gu Yanxi who was silently watching the scene felt too suffocated. He did not know what was going on but seeing both An Xiulan and An Qinyan hurting was too much for his heart. On one hand, it was his wife who was more precious to him than anything and on the other hand, it was his daughter. He could not take any side. Even if An Xiulan was wrong, he could not punish her. His love for her was biased. Meanwhile, he could not fault his wife either.

An Xiulan took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to say to her mother, An Xiulan mustered up the courage to say, "I am sorry that I could not tell you I was scared to tell you. I know it will sound like an excuse but I was scared how you were going to react that I lost my job."

The real reason why she could not confess to her mother why she lost her job was

The real reason why she didn\'t tell her mother the truth was that she was scared of this reaction. She knew that her mother was going to react like this. Her mom would not understand why she did what she did. And if she had to explain everything to her mother, she would have to tell the parts of Han Zixin\'s life that nobody was aware of. She could not tell her mother that Yang Zi was Han Zixin\'s birth mother who abandoned him for fame and was now back to his life for selfish reasons only. Her mother would not understand anything without any context.

Gu Hanxi was shocked to hear thi, "Xiulan, you lost your job?"

An Xiulan nodded at Gu Yanxi. Here was her sweet stepfather who was stuck between two women he loved.

Gu Yanxi took a step ahead and tried to mediate between the mother and daughter. "Yanyan, please don\'t be mad at Xiulan. It\'s just a job. She is capable—"

He failed to see that his wife was so heated that she was not going to listen to anyone. She was mad beyond words. No matter what he did now was not going to help this situation at all.

An Qinyan flashed him a look and asked, "Yanxi, do you think I\'m that unreasonable that I will be mad at her for losing a job?"

Gu Yanxi said with a sigh, "You are not."

An Qinyan explained to her kind husband, "Exactly. It\'s not that she lost her job but the way she lost it. Why don\'t you ask her why she lost her job?"

She turned to look at her daughter and said with a smile, "Xiulan?"

"Mom—"An Xiulan sighed. How does she tell the truth to her mom? Someone was going to be pissed by the end of this session.

An Qinyan said, "Are you ashamed to tell your Uncle how you lost your job?"

"Mom, please understand—"An Xiulan requested her mother to understand. Even though she knew that it was not going to happen, she was going to exhaust her efforts.

Her mother snapped, "Xiulan, how will I understand if you didn\'t even try to explain to me."

It was true that we could not ask someone to understand without trying to help them to understand. If she wanted An Qinyan to understand, she would have to explain everything. Since An Xiulan could not do that, An Qinyan\'s anger was not going to be cooled down any sooner.

An Qinyan asked her daughter, "Did you come to me and tell me that you are in trouble?"

An Xiulan had her head lowered.

An Qinyan said further, "If it was a small issue, I would not have caused a scene but it is a big issue. Your reputation could be smeared badly by the media. You have created a scandal for yourself and this family."

Why could not her good daughter understand the implications of her actions? It was not Chairman Li who was going to take advantage of this situation but everyone was going to benefit from it. They would drag Lu Zhaolin into office politics who had always maintained a position away from it but because of An Xiulan things were going to turn complicated for him too.

Once the matter leaks to press things worse than this would happen.

What was even worse was the fact that An Xiulan herself was a public figure.

This Scandal could potentially ruin her career.

Of course, as a mother, she would step down in this mess to take care of it to protect her daughter\'s future.

An Xiulan confessed to her mother, "I wasn\'t thinking much at that time."

An Qinyan said, "Yes. You were not. Do you know how impulsive your actions were?"

"I am sorry —"

An Qinyan was done with her sorries. It was hurting her ears to hear it more. It sounded like empty excuses to her. "You are saying sorry again and again. Tell me one thing, did you apologize to that lady?"

"I—"

Of course, An Qinyan knew about it. She received the report from Lu Zhaolin. "You didn\'t."

An Xiulan pursed her lips.

An Qinyan said, "It means you are not guilty of what you did."

An Xiulan couldn\'t say a word. Because it was true that she was not guilty at all. She did not see any reason for being guilty. Yang Zi deserved every slap she received.

An Qinyan said, "You are only sad because I found out about this matter, not because you beat up a woman in your office lobby."
