At this moment, facing the sea of reporters and cameras, Xia Yuling revealed the secret that she had kept in her heart for over 20 years.
She was no longer afraid of being embarrassed.
Between her daughter and her husband, she had made the wrong choice for so many years. Now, it was time for everything to return to normal.
"So, I would like to ask the media to stop slandering my daughter for being a mistress. I, Xia Yuling, am the rightful mistress and my daughter, Tangning, is a legitimate member of the Tang Family."
"If you have any questions, I can provide you with the evidence... none of this can be faked."
"I, Xia Yuling, hereby swear that from now on, no one will ever hurt my daughter."
The reporters continued to take pictures of Xia Yuling on stage. It seemed, they were even trying to capture Xia Yuling's facial expression.
It turned out, the Tang Family had a scandal like this.
It turned out, Tangning had a background like this...
As for Xia Yuling, after tolerating her husband for so many years, she finally revealed his wrongdoings for the sake of her daughter...
"Ms. Xia, aren't you afraid of revenge for exposing the Tang Family's scandal?"
Faced with the reporters' questions, Xia Yuling sneered as she wiped away her tears and replied, "Since I am standing here today, I have already prepared myself for my family to be torn apart. I want my daughter to be open and honest. From now on, whether she is on the runway or acting, she will be able to stand tall. Because as her mother, I have never done anything to embarrass her. "
"Revenge? As long as my daughter can live a good life, I have nothing to fear. "
"By the way, thank you all for coming today."
After hearing Xia Yuling's response, the reporters began to whisper amongst themselves.
"It must be because of the Tang Family's internal strife and Tangning's difficult situation that Ms. Xia decided to speak up."
"She fell from a high altitude. I originally thought it was a vicious competition in the industry. But, if it was really the Tang Family's doing, no wonder Ms. Xia stepped out to protect Tangning. This was a life threatening incident."
"That's right. Regardless of what happened, whether it was as a wife or as a mother, Ms. Xia is a great person. At least, I can't allow myself to be wronged and push my own daughter away for the sake of someone else's child."
"Either way, the truth has now been revealed. Everyone knows that Tangning is a legitimate member of the Tang Family. It seems, Ms. Xia not only needs to defend against the Tang Family, she also needs to defend against the Liang Family."
Revenge...
No matter whose revenge it was, she didn't care.
In this life, Tang Qinwen had betrayed her once, and she had betrayed Tang Qinwen once. Now they were even, right?
"Yuling, I never expected you to suffer so much." Her friend held onto her and sighed, "It's good that you've said it, Tangning will understand..."
After speaking, Xia Yuling's heart felt empty. She didn't know how she got off the stage. All she saw was Tang Qinwen appear at the entrance. But... as their eyes met, Xia Yuling quickly averted her gaze.
She didn't want her family anymore. All she wanted was her daughter …
Xia Yuling and Xia Yuling quickly left the ballroom and entered her room under the protection of the security guards. However, as soon as the door closed, Xia Yuling's emotions completely collapsed.
"It must have been hard on you, keeping this secret for so many years." Her good friend immediately held her shoulders and advised, "Since you've already made your choice, just move forward boldly. No matter how bad you are, you still have your daughter and son-in-law."
"I'm going to go wash my face..." Xia Yuling stood up from her friend's arms and stumbled into the bathroom. Even though Xia Yuling's friend was anxious, she knew she had to give her some time and space.
But, 10 minutes later, there was still no movement from the bathroom...
Her friend paused for a moment. Just as she was about to get up and check on the situation, she heard a hurried knock on the door. Her friend thought it was Tang Qinwen. But, after quite some time, Tangning's voice was heard...
"Auntie Xiao, open the door..."
Xiao Jie paused for a second before she ran over to the door and opened it.
Mo Ting and Tangning stood behind the door. They were so tall that people had to look up at them.
"Your mother is in the bathroom. She's been in there for a while. I'm a little worried."
Tangning looked behind her. Mo Ting immediately gave Lu Che a phone call. Two minutes later, the hotel manager handed Tangning the key card.
Tangning pushed open the door and entered. She saw Xia Yuling sitting by the bathtub. She almost broke down. If not for the man behind her giving her strength, she would have already collapsed.
"Mom..." Tangning gently called out.
As soon as Xia Yuling heard this, she turned her head slightly. As soon as she saw Tangning, tears immediately rolled down her cheeks, "You're finally willing to call me."
Tangning walked over to Xia Yuling's side and knelt down in front of her. She held onto Xia Yuling's cold hands, "It's all my fault."
"No, you're not wrong. You didn't do anything wrong. You've remembered everything I've taught you." Xia Yuling took a deep breath. She couldn't bear to part with Tangning. She had been waiting for Tangning to call her 'mom' for a long time.
"In that case, let's not talk about it anymore. Let bygones be bygones. From now on, let's live a good life together."
"No... I still need to get back what you deserve," Xia Yuling shook her head. Xia Yuling shook her head and refused. Originally, she had already prepared for the worst. But, if she was to leave forever, who was going to control the Tang Family? "You are the legitimate child of the Tang Family. You don't need to bow down to anyone. I was too selfish in the past and made your life suffer."
"Now, I've thought things through."
"I no longer plan to hide from the Tang Family. I will take back everything that belongs to us."
"Don't you like filming? You should continue filming. As long as you and Mo Ting are happy, I'll be satisfied, "Xia Yuling said as she held onto Tangning's cheeks. "Tang Xuan wants to harm you, but I won't let her. Let me be the head of the Tang Family!" Xia Yuling said as she held onto Tangning's cheeks.
"In the past, I was too weak. Now, I want to protect you..."
At this moment, Tangning felt like her heart had received a heavy blow.
All these years, she had never been kind to her mother. But, she never expected that Xia Yuling would endure so much.
"But..."
"This is your mother's choice. As a daughter, you should respect it," Mo Ting said as he lifted Tangning in his arms. "She has her own wish to fulfill..."
"Mo Ting is right," Xia Yuling wiped away her tears and stood up. She then took a few steps towards Tangning and Mo Ting. "From now on, you will not only have a husband, you will also have a mother."
Tangning burst into tears as she hugged Xia Yuling. Meanwhile, Mo Ting wrapped his arms around Xia Yuling.
"That's enough. How old are you? Why are you crying like this? If the media capture you crying like this, your image will be ruined. No matter how good your films are, no one will watch them."
"Tangning, I can rest assured handing you over to Mo Ting. But, I still have one more important thing to do," Xia Yuling's eyes were filled with determination as she spoke.
She suddenly understood.
In order to truly protect Tangning and let her do what she wanted to do... she had to seize power.
It was time for Tang Xuan, the child of a mistress, to step down from her position as Executive Director!
"Just in time, Elder Tang called to ask you to return to the Tang Family home," Xiao Jie said as she held onto Xia Yuling's phone.
