It's now the peak of rush hour, with a lot of people around.

They kept pointing at me and cursing, attracting quite a crowd to stop and watch.

I told Lu Xinyue to go back first, but she held onto my hand and refused to leave.

In the end, I coldly interrupted the couple, "Enough, stop arguing here, it's embarrassing."

My mom seemed to suddenly grasp onto some key information, waving her hands towards the crowd:

"Come and see! We raised our daughter for eighteen years, put in all our efforts to send her to high school. As soon as she graduates, she runs away from home, now making big money, living a good life, and finds us embarrassing! What kind of world is this?!"

"Back then, to give birth to her, her younger brother was suffocated to death!"

"She's ungrateful! Just asked her to work, but she refused, directly ran away from home, making us worry for years!"

After saying that, she collapsed on the ground.

Her shouting voice reached the residents near the gate of the community, and one by one, they stretched their necks to look over.

Lu Xinyue had never seen such a scene before, and she was so scared that she hid behind me.

I addressed the onlookers who were pointing and whispering, "Sorry everyone, my parents are a bit confused."

I pointed to my temple, and the onlookers immediately understood, looking at my parents with a hint of pity in their eyes.

I then pointed to the vehicles blocked by the crowd, "Please move aside, the vehicles can't come in if you block the way."

After the security guards dispersed the crowd, my mom stopped shouting and glared at me fiercely, "Yang Xing, what do you mean by this!"

I had no intention of dealing with them, so I walked straight into the community. However, my mom grabbed my hand, "Today, if you don't give us money, we won't leave!"

I shook off her hand, took a few steps back, and said, "Then you can stay here."

My mom blocked my way with her hands, "Even if you want to leave, you have to settle the accounts first. We raised you for eighteen years! You must pay us back."

I sneered, "Fine, if we're settling accounts, then you should first return my first paycheck from six years ago. You said you were just holding it for me, now it should be returned to me. Give me that money first, and we can talk about the rest later."

Upon hearing this, my mom burst into tears, "You owe us a life, what's wrong with spending some money on your brother!"

I nodded a few times and said, "You gave birth to me, raised me, it's your duty. Since I turned eighteen, I haven't taken a penny from you, so I don't owe you anything. Also, what about the money my brother owes me, are you going to repay that with your lives?"

My parents were both angry and anxious, refusing to let me go no matter what.

My dad said, "You also have the responsibility to support your parents. We are both old now. If you don't support us, we... we..."

My dad hesitated for a while, then finally said he would sue me in court.

I remained calm, "Then go ahead."

They could only talk but wouldn't actually go through with it.

In the end, the couple couldn't say anything more, and my brother stepped forward.
