What's Wrong With Being A Salted Fish?

A Yellow Rose 14

In a coffee shop at a crossroads on a busy street, Ye Linfeng asked Ye Qinfen to talk here.

"Mom? Mom, are you listening to me?" Ye Linfeng took a sip of his coffee.

He looked at Ye Qinfen, who was sitting opposite him and seemed to have lost her soul. He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, trying to bring her back to her senses.

"Ah? What's wrong, son?" Ye Qinfen came back to her senses and smiled tiredly.

"Did Lin Zhuo abuse you? Why do you look like this?" Ye Linfeng looked at Ye Qinfen's dark circles and bags under her eyes that couldn't be concealed even by foundation, and felt puzzled. She wasn't going to Lin Zhuo to be a nanny, so why was she so tired?

Ye Qinfen shook her head and whispered that no, she was just having a nightmare.

Ye Linfeng didn't believe it. With Ye Qinfen's expression, he would believe her if she said she was beaten by Lin Zhuo.

Ye Linfeng looked at Ye Qinfen suspiciously. Could it be that she was helping Lin Zhuo cover up? No, when did she become so kind to Lin Zhuo? Could it be that Lin Zhuo gave her money?

Ye Qinfen was a little helpless. She was telling the truth, but looking at Ye Linfeng's expression she knew he didn't believe it.

Ye Qinfen had no choice. She couldn't tell Ye Linfeng that she had been dreaming about the past these days. Ye Linfeng probably wouldn't believe it if she told him.

If Ye Qinfen had experienced it from her own perspective, it would not have been impossible for her to accept it, but she happened to perceive it all from Lin Zhuo's perspective.

Ye Qinfen herself knew the "good things" she had done, but how could she accept that she, the abuser, became a victim?

In addition, Lin Zhuo would appear in her dreams in various forms, disturbing her and making her unable to fall asleep for a long time.

Ye Qinfen was already troubled by nightmares, and the gardener came very early these days. The crackling sounds in the garden always woke her up. She always thought that Lin Zhuo was holding a pair of big scissors and was going to cut her neck, which caused her mental state to be very bad.

It wasn't like this in the past. It was because of that dream that Ye Qinfen was worried all day long. She became suspicious at the slightest sign of trouble.

Lin Zhuo also asked her if he needed her to see a doctor, but Ye Qinfen shook her head and refused. The shock she had from the mental hospital in her dream was too strong, and she didn't want to see a doctor in a white coat at all.

Lin Zhuo didn't force it, but he never mentioned inviting a family doctor to come to his home, which made Ye Qinfen a little dissatisfied and felt that she was not taken seriously.

But she didn't dare to make a fuss, for fear that Lin Zhuo would ask her to pay back the money the next second. This happened repeatedly, and her appearance became visibly worse.

Ye Linfeng didn't want to argue with Ye Qinfen about this. He only cared whether Lin Zhuo gave Ye Qinfen money. He asked Ye Qinfen tentatively: "Why don't you move out of his house and rent a house?"

Ye Qinfen shook her head, she was reluctant to leave.

Although Lin Zhuo saw that she was upset, he did not treat her harshly. He had delicious meals every day, a spacious room, soft bedding, and she did not need to worry about anything. This was an experience she could not get if she rented a house now.

"Mom, if you don't do this for yourself, please consider me. I have no place to live, and I've been staying at a friend's house for a long time." Ye Linfeng pretended to wipe away his tears. He only had the apartment, and after it was auctioned off, he really had nowhere to go.
