After seeing Liu Meiling off, the two of them slumped into their chairs.
"Darling, do you have any medicine? I feel like I haven't thrown up completely."
Bai Yajing waved her hand, went back to her room, opened the medicine cabinet, and began preparing the medicine herself.
She was feeling nauseous and her stomach was churning. She couldn't even imagine how strong Uncle Liu's stomach was...
After leaving the room, the uncle took the medicine bag and dragged his heavy steps to the kitchen.
Bai Yajing followed them inside.
One person tends the fire, another reads the medicine, and he also gets up to go to the bathroom every now and then.
Only after taking the medicine did the churning in my stomach stop.
"Next time...next time, don't let that girl lay a hand on you..."
Bai Yajing nodded; she would never let that girl lay a hand on her again!
Just by looking at the resistance on her uncle's face, everyone knows that Liu Meiling made a terrible move!
She's just not cut out for being a virtuous wife; I'd advise her to give up on that path...
"Uncle, I'm going to sleep now. You should get some rest too."
The two slept soundly through the night.
However, things were not peaceful in the Liu family.
Liu Shenglin returned home looking dejected. His parents were extremely anxious, but he wouldn't say anything when asked. He then locked himself in his room.
When Liu Meiling returned, she was greeted by a joint trial by her parents.
Liu's mother pulled her daughter into the room.
"What's wrong with your brother? I've never seen him like this before."
"Did someone abandon you? That can't be right, there's no chance of anything happening between him and that Bai family girl yet."
Liu Meiling shrugged. "It's nothing, I just got rejected after confessing my feelings. I'll be fine after a good night's sleep."
Mrs. Liu's heart skipped a beat, and she raised her hand to slap her on the forehead. "Damn it, a good night's sleep will do the trick. Your brother is really heartbroken this time. He genuinely likes that girl. What happened? How did he get rejected?"
Her son is handsome, gentle and considerate, and has a good job. What went wrong?
Mr. Liu, who was standing to the side, also looked nervously at his daughter, waiting for her answer.
"Hey, you all know my brother. To put it nicely, he's kind, gentle, and considerate; to put it bluntly, he's a pushover! He's nice to everyone, even girls, without any sense of responsibility as a man! He deserves it!"
Then, he recounted the conversation he had overheard between the two of them.
She didn't want her friend to be misunderstood by her family.
Mr. Liu understood immediately. There was nothing he could say about it; his son had always been this way since he was little.
Mrs. Liu looked regretful.
"Oh! What a pity. That girl was truly the epitome of the perfect daughter-in-law in my mind. It's precisely because your brother is so gentle that he needs a strong-willed wife, so he won't suffer any losses."
Mr. Liu waved his hand and said, "Wouldn't that be too much of a burden for that girl? Every girl wants someone to rely on when she gets married, and at the very least, she shouldn't cause trouble. Let it go, don't drag that girl down."
Mrs. Liu thought about it and agreed.
"Sigh, I originally wanted to become in-laws with Weiwei to strengthen our family ties, but unfortunately, my son is a disappointment."
The family of three were all sighing and complaining.
There was a noise coming from the next room.
The three exchanged a glance and quickly left the room.
Mrs. Liu looked at her eldest son cautiously, "Son, are you... are you hungry? Should I ask your dad to cook you some noodles?"
Mr. Liu was decisive; he rolled up his sleeves and left, saying, "Wait here, I'm coming right now."
Liu Meiling slapped her older brother on the shoulder and said, "Brother, I know you're very sad right now, but don't be sad. Ya Jing and you really aren't a good match."
I know you and her well; your personalities don't match.
It's better to end it quickly than to suffer for a long time. She needs to cut off her brother's hopes so that the two of them don't end up not even being able to remain friends.
