Qing Jiang Mei had a guilty look at his face, he really wanted to apologize to Li Lian for making her experience the unfair treatment that she received.
"About the audition... I'm very sorry."
With only those words, Li Lian could understand what Qing Jiang Mei was apologizing for. She shook her head gently. "No, it wasn't your fault, Mr. Qing. Someone else forced you into this."
Qing Jiang Mei looked up and blinked. "Someone else forced me... Ms. Yue, how do you know that?"
Li Lian gave a cold smile. "Because the one who did this is my family."
Looking at Li Lian's smile, Qing Jiang Mei could feel sorrow and sadness hidden beneath it. "My family..." The words stayed on his mind.
"Well then, Mr. Qing, I'll be taking my leave." Li Lian bid her farewell.
Although it was unlucky for her to not being able to sing in her idol's song, she had somewhat guessed that Qu Mei Xing and her parents would do something in order to stop her.
But something is still in question, her hunch was telling her that they didn't plan to only do this.
Because if they want to make the singer for the ending theme song to be Xie Hue Lin, why would they still hold the audition?
There's only one answer.
They are planning to confront her or perhaps drag her to a mental hospital...
Qing Jiang Mei quickly halted Li Lian. "Wait! Ms. Yue, I still have something to tell you."
Li Lian turned her face and asked. "What is it, Mr. Qing?"
"This...Please, try once again. " Qing Jiang Mei passed the paper to her hand.
Li Lian took a look at the paper in surprise. "This is...8th soundtrack audition paper?"
"Yes. The audition would be open tomorrow. I know that although it is not as grand as the ending them-"
"I understand, thank you very much. I will definitely come tomorrow." Li Lian quickly replied.
"Really? That's great!!!" Qing Jiang Mei's face lit up with a wide smile. She looked at Li Lian who was about to leave and thought that perhaps he had intruded her time and spoke. "Ah- Er... Then I will not be taking your time any longer!!"
Li Lian nodded and thanked him once again before leaving the hall.
Behind her, Xie Hue Lin who had been waiting for this day to come couldn't wait anymore and hurriedly walked to witness her downfall.
"Min- Ge, let's go now." Xie Hue Lin spoke.
"Mn, congrats, Xiao- Lin. Let's go home now and tell uncle and aunty about this news." He Chang Min adoringly answered.
"Yup! I couldn't wait to see he...- Their expression." Xie Hue Lin replied. ( Ta= you (female/ she/her). tamen= them. Xie Hue Lin said "ta" before completing her sentence with "men". )
He Chang Min nodded and walked toward the outside of the hall.
The same moment Li Lian arrived at the outside hall, Xie Hue Lin and He Chang Min also stepped out of the hall.
Seeing the two figures stopping her from advancing, Li Lian coldly looked toward them.
The person who stood in front of her was no other than Xie Xi Yong and Xie Chong Rang, Li Lian's blood-related father and mother.
Li Lian halted her step and faced up toward her parents. Just by looking at their expressions, Li Lian snorted at her heart. As expected, in Xie's household, no one has ever liked her presence except her grandmother.
With a sour, fierce face, Xie Chong Rang spoke sarcastically. "So you live quiet well after ditching your family, huh? What an unfilial daughter."
The first time Li Lian's parents asked wasn't about how she was, or how has she been living in, or even where did she go, but rather a sarcastic remark and belittling words.
Li Lian smiled. -'So this is what they are planning to do...'
"Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie, what can I help you with?" She asked.
Xie Chong Rang looked at her eldest daughter in deep disgust. "So you do know that you are not our daughter anymore."
Li Lian nodded. "Yes, it seems that I had never once welcomed as your daughter."
Xie Xi Yong's face twitched in anger. " Never welcomed? You are the one who has always let us down by being our daughter! Don't you know how much you have disgraced our family's name? And now? What are you planning to do? After a year disappearing and suddenly showing out of nowhere?"
"Whether I disappeared, dead, or alive, what would you people care about? Instead, wouldn't you feel better with my presence disappearing? So now, why do you have to care to where I had disappeared to?" Li Lian retorted.
