"They can't control their mouths and make up stories, so I'll control it for them."

As Lu Huaiyan spoke, he turned his head and looked around, as if he was going to grab someone and question him in the next second.

Jiang Xiachu was shocked when he saw his posture.

Is he really going to catch everyone and question them one by one? The society now is different from the past. There can't be bullies running rampant!

This guy is really crazy.

Jiang Xiachu complained silently in his heart, then walked forward with big strides, just wanting to stay away from him and cut off all ties with him.

You're crazy. Do you really think of her as your own sister?

She doesn't need such a brother.

As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Xiachu strode into the main room.

Cheng Nianhua was sitting on a chair in the main room, holding a small embroidery stand in her hand, embroidering something.

When she heard the footsteps, she immediately raised her head, "Huai Yan..."

But after seeing the person coming, she was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked the person to sit down, "Oh, I thought it was Huai Yan, Xia Chu is here!"

From a distance, she began to wave to Jiang Xiachu, and she couldn't stop smiling.

She had always liked this girl.

Just as he was greeting Jiang Xiachu cheerfully, the figure of his adopted son suddenly appeared in his sight.

When Cheng Nianhua saw clearly, his face immediately turned cold and his smile disappeared.

What a good child! When Huai Yan wanted to marry Jiang Xiachu into the family, God knows how happy she was.

Jiang Xiachu was the daughter-in-law she had always dreamed of. The more she looked at her, the more she liked her. But when the day of their engagement came, Lu Huaiyan ruined it again, and now the marriage could not take place.

What a pity! The more I think about her, the more sad I feel.

Jiang Xiachu strode into the main room, walked up to Cheng Nianhua, held her hand, and said with a smile: "Aunt Cheng, I applied the medicine you gave me yesterday, and it worked well. Thank you for your concern."

In her previous life, after she married Lu Huaiyan, she seemed to know that Lu Huaiyan owed her, so she, as the mother-in-law, was particularly good to her.

After Suisui was born, he took special care of her.

She is a very gentle person, so Jiang Xiachu was willing to come to her specially and talk things out with her.

Cheng Nianhua smiled and nodded, looking at Jiang Xiachu with tender eyes, "As long as it's useful, it's fine. I heard that you hurt your face, and I was worried about you. How are you now?"

Jiang Xiachu said gently: "It's no big deal. It will be fine after some rest."

"Aunt Cheng, I was in a hurry yesterday and had a lot of other things to do, so I didn't have time to tell you in detail what happened. I want to explain it to you today."

When talking about this, Cheng Nianhua felt a little depressed.

The daughter-in-law who was about to come in was gone just like that.

But she still hid some of her emotions on her face so that Jiang Xiachu wouldn't notice anything was wrong.

"Xia Chu, come, sit down and talk." Cheng Nianhua took Jiang Xia Chu's hand and let her sit on the chair.

Seeing this, Lu Huaiyan, who was standing by, was about to sit down when he received a glare from Cheng Nianhua.

He immediately stood up again and stood aside silently.

Jiang Xiachu sat next to Cheng Nianhua and spoke softly, "Aunt Cheng, I figured out something yesterday. It's useless to force a relationship. Even if you get married, you won't be happy."

As she spoke, she looked up at Lu Huaiyan and said, "Brother Lu and I don't like each other, and we don't have any feelings for each other. If we stay together, it will bring pressure to both of us, so I plan to cancel the engagement. I know this decision is very sudden, but I hope you can understand me."

"We won't hinder each other, and he will find someone more suitable. As for the two of us, forget it."

If we don’t like each other, we won’t hinder each other.

When Cheng Nianhua heard what Jiang Xiachu said, his face turned pale and his heart broke into countless pieces in an instant. The more he thought about it, the more heartbroken he felt.

Does Xia Chu actually not like her son?

This is really the sky falling.

Originally, she thought there was room for redemption, and wanted to persuade Jiang Xiachu to change her mind and get along well with her son.

After all, since people have said so, she can't force Jiang Xiachu to be with someone she doesn't like, right?

She glared at Lu Huaiyan with a look of disappointment on her face, and was extremely angry.

She walked to the gate and closed it, still muttering, "I'm so mad! Oh, I'm so mad!"

How could his son be so disappointing? He couldn't even coax a little girl, and even caused someone to cancel the engagement!

After closing the gate, she walked to Lu Huaiyan, rolled her eyes at him, stomped her feet in anger, and slapped his arm.

I'm so angry.

It must be this unfilial son's doing. He secretly made the girl unhappy, and that's why she was so angry that she wanted to cancel the engagement!

Cheng Nianhua's face turned red with anger, but the man who was punched by her several times didn't react at all, and his eyes were a little vague.

Lu Huaiyan was in a daze, his mind full of what Jiang Xiachu had just said.

Don't like each other...

He glanced sideways at Jiang Xiachu beside him, lowered his eyes to study the expression on her face, and kept thinking about what she had just said.

Wouldn't I be happy with him?

He exhaled and tried to judge the truthfulness of Jiang Xiachu's words from her expression.

Does she really dislike herself?

She clearly didn't say that before, why did she suddenly change her mind?

Jiang Xiachu felt the man's gaze and looked up. Her clear and bright eyes immediately met the man's.

The three words "Really?" were almost engraved in Lu Huaiyan's pair of dark starry eyes.

She curved her eyes, and her slightly raised fox eyes looked even more charming and lovely. She smiled and said, "Don't you believe it?"

Lu Huaiyan frowned slightly, and the meaning of that expression was self-evident.

I really don't believe it.

Over the years, Jiang Xiachu has always loved to follow him, and he has always known that she likes him.

Jiang Xiachu put away his smile and answered seriously, "I'm not kidding. I really don't like you. I know you don't like me either, so we don't have to force it."

Cheng Nianhua heard these words again and felt as if someone had suddenly stabbed him in the heart, causing severe pain.

Jiang Xiachu let go of Cheng Nianhua's hand, looked at Lu Huaiyan and said seriously: "It's true, but it's a pity that I didn't understand my heart until yesterday. For so many years, I have always regarded you as a brother."

"Before, I liked being with you because I thought you were my brother and wanted you to accompany me. Gradually, I misunderstood this feeling and thought I loved you."

"But now I understand that between us, this is just a brother-sister relationship. It has nothing to do with love at all, let alone marriage. But don't worry, after the marriage is cancelled, we will still be family in the future."

Her statement should be perfect, right?

I guess Cheng Nianhua won't persuade her anymore.
