Chapter 600 is too frequent, it's causing aesthetic fatigue.
Ning Duoduo sat in the closet until her legs went numb. She didn't know how much time had passed until a smell of food suddenly wafted into the room. She suddenly came to her senses, struggled to move her body, and tried to ease the numbness in her legs.
"Duoduo, come and have breakfast."
The floor was a huge mess that hadn't been cleaned up yet, but Ning Yao seemed not to notice it and simply placed the breakfast she had prepared on the table.
Before Ning Yao arrived, Ning Duoduo's heart was heavy, but after Ning Yao arrived, Ning Duoduo felt that the cold room and her cold body were gradually tinged with a layer of pale yellow light. This feeling was warm and peaceful.
Ning Yao didn't help Ning Duoduo up. After placing the prepared breakfast on the table, she sat down herself.
Ning Duoduo struggled for a long time to stand up and slowly walked to the seat next to Ning Yao. She seemed a little awkward. The mess all around her was her handiwork. The scenes that happened last night were displayed in front of her, making her feel extremely ashamed.
Seeing that Ning Duoduo still had tear stains on her face, Ning Yao ate two mouthfuls of noodles, then couldn't help but sigh. She got up to get a hot towel, bent down and gently wiped Ning Duoduo's cheeks clean.
"How old are you? Still crying like a child."
“When I was your age, if someone bullied me, I would either fight back on the spot, or if I couldn’t win, I would find a way to get revenge later and hide away and cry. If I never faced it, I would just be bullied to death.”
Ning Yao placed the hot towel on the table, her calm and unwavering eyes fixed on her daughter, her voice gentle.
Ning Yao knew that her daughter was hiding something; either she didn't trust her mother, or she felt she could handle it herself.
But now that things have come to this, Ning Yao has no choice but to intervene. Her daughter has been driven to depression, and the situation is getting worse. The previous improvement was just an act by Ning Duoduo.
“If you don’t want to talk about it, Mom won’t force you, but you need to know that Mom loves you and Mom doesn’t want to see you become like this.”
“There’s no need for such formality between mother and daughter. You’re still young, and you can ask your mother for help if you have any problems. There’s nothing shameful about that.”
Ning Duoduo was already experiencing severe emotional fluctuations, and now, hearing her closest loved one beside her, gently comforting her, every word of which was breaking down her defenses.
Ning Duoduo's eyes twitched, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. She immediately threw herself into Ning Yao's arms, her shoulders shaking violently.
"I acted in a movie before, and I fell in love with the male lead..."
"It's because I'm not good enough for him, I'm not good enough for him, we broke up, so he doesn't want me anymore."
"I know I'm terrible, and I'll definitely lose more people around me in the future. Sooner or later... you'll all abandon me."
Ning Duoduo cried her heart out, her voice broken and intermittent. Ning Yao listened carefully before she understood what had happened.
It turns out that the daughter was dating a boy, and the boy was an actor she had worked with before. They were together for a while, but then they broke up.
But why didn't she tell her mother when her daughter started dating?
Ning Yao's eyes revealed a hint of frustration, frustrated that she had truly failed as a mother.
Seemingly sensing Ning Yao's emotions, Ning Duoduo sniffed in Ning Yao's arms and mumbled, "It's not that I didn't want to tell you I'm in a relationship, it's just that he won't let me say it. He said it's not the right time yet..."
Ning Yao sensed something unusual in Ning Duoduo's words.
The man who is dating his own daughter doesn't seem to be a decent person. Recently, a scam called PUA has become popular. Some illegal organizations even charge men for training so they can master this PUA technique to deceive women's feelings and even make them do anything without any limits or moral boundaries.
The more Ning Yao looked at her daughter, the more she felt that she had been manipulated by those scumbag men.
Lacking self-confidence, feeling unworthy of the other person, feeling worthless, and even saying "he doesn't want me anymore" when breaking up.
What do you mean by "want or not"? Relationships are inherently about mutual equality. Breakups should be based on the understanding that "we're not compatible" or "I feel we don't get along. There's something wrong with him, and something wrong with me. We just can't get along."
Ning Yao became increasingly alarmed as she thought about it. Looking at her daughter, who was being tortured and crying uncontrollably, her expression suddenly turned serious.
Undoubtedly, her daughter was brainwashed using such despicable methods, which led to a series of subsequent psychological problems.
"Who is your boyfriend?" Ning Yao subconsciously pulled her daughter closer to her, increasing the strength of her arms, which unconsciously gave her daughter courage.
She needed to know who was responsible for harming her daughter, Ning Yao; this person was far too audacious.
Ning Duoduo shook her head with tears in her eyes, without revealing the other person's name or background. It seems she still felt that she couldn't tell a third party without the other person's permission.
Ning Yao was heartbroken. She never imagined that she hadn't noticed her daughter's abnormality, causing her to suffer so much.
Now is not the time to blame yourself. What's more important is to find the other party and teach him a lesson so that he knows what happens when he manipulates his daughter!
"Duoduo, be good. Mommy is helping you now. You must tell Mommy the truth." Ning Yao patiently coaxed her daughter, not daring to reveal her anger at all, so as not to frighten the child.
She herself is only in her early twenties, so it's not hard for her to know what kids her age are thinking. If this happened in an ordinary family, the parents would probably have already started scolding and beating her.
But she couldn't do that. Children are meant to be loved, not used as punching bags for their parents' tempers.
Besides, Ning Yao couldn't bear to do it. These children were her own flesh and blood. She would feel heartbroken for a long time if they were even slightly bumped or bruised. How could she bear to hit or scold them?
Besides, it wasn't her daughter who did wrong, but that bastard who used PUA tactics!
After much coaxing, Ning Duoduo finally revealed the other person's background, which Ning Yao then wrote down word for word.
Mai Jinghong is also a popular celebrity in the entertainment industry, but he is several levels below Ning Duoduo. Although he has been in the industry for a long time, he has no outstanding works. His acting skills are mediocre. His face is considered good among ordinary people, but it is just average in the entertainment industry.
This is the kind of person who has her daughter completely under his thumb.
"Duoduo, in Mom's eyes you are the best. No matter what others say, you must have a correct understanding of yourself and not just follow the crowd. Think about the awards you have won and your excellent grades. Are they all fake?"
Ning Duoduo looked somewhat confused upon hearing this. She had indeed won many awards, but did these awards prove that she was outstanding?
Seeing her daughter's shifty eyes, Ning Yao said nothing more, but simply asked her daughter to sit down and continue eating breakfast.
After settling her daughter in, Ning Yao called Cui Mengmeng.
"I remember you gave me a call sheet before, wasn't there an actor named Mak King-hung on it?"
Cui Mengmeng asked, puzzled, "Yes, there is indeed such a person on the list. Why is that?"
Ning Yao didn't answer Cui Mengmeng, but continued, "I think I rejected this invitation. Can you take it for me?"
Cui Mengmeng hesitated for a second before asking, "But the time of this announcement overlaps with your race time. Aren't you going to the F1 race?"
Ning Yao made her decline the offer because of a scheduling conflict. Moreover, the offer was for an entertainment variety show, and Ning Yao had just appeared on Peach Blossom Life, so there was no need for her to appear on variety shows so frequently, lest the audience get tired of seeing her.
Of course, Cui Mengmeng knew that the term "aesthetic fatigue" was not appropriate for Ning Yao. Her face was the kind that grew more and more beautiful the more you looked at it, and Ning Yao's personality was the kind that you liked more and more the more you got to know her, so there was no such thing as 'fatigue'.
“I’m not going. I have more important things to do. Please accept this offer for me.” Ning Yao said without hesitation.
