"Since you want to kick me out of the house anyway, I want to see a public declaration in the newspaper severing our relationship within a week," Deng Yuyuan said.
Publishing a declaration to sever ties wouldn't completely sever their legal parent-child relationship. However, if they ever ended up in a familial lawsuit in the future, having this statement would make things much easier for her. She would also only have to pay the absolute minimum in alimony for her parents.
"No! You can't!" Mrs. Deng suddenly crawled toward her. "I can't bear to let you go. When I gave birth to you, it was a difficult labor, and I even had to be cut open for you..."
Deng Yuyuan sighed helplessly and helped her mother up from the floor. Just as Mrs. Deng thought there was a glimmer of hope, her daughter's words were cold and piercing. "So you're blaming me for not being obedient enough when I was born?"
