Jiang's mother was a little happy to hear these words. It was uncomfortable that the child had been sick these days and didn't say or pay attention to anything. The fact that he could take the initiative to say these words proved that he was beginning to recover. But was this recovery because he met Hao Yuanchao or because he broke off the engagement?
There was nothing a mother couldn't ask her daughter, so she asked, "Did you hear in the hallway that Hao Yuanchao came to break off the engagement?"
Song Shuyao paused holding the chopsticks, "I heard it when I was almost at the door."
"Then you can't just go up and slap someone. That would be too embarrassing for a man."
"I didn't want to fight, but when I saw his face, I couldn't control myself." Song Shuyao said in a light tone, as if she was talking about the weather conditions.
Jiang's mother was confused. What's the reason?
"So what are you thinking now? Breaking off the engagement with Hao Yuanchao... Forget it, forget it. He took the initiative to come to our house to break off the engagement because he was thinking about us. He doesn't need to make things difficult for us. Don't be unhappy. Four children are really a burden. As a mother, I won't cheat you. Let alone raising them for others, even raising four children by yourself is hard enough. Hao Yuanchao is not a good match right now. Love can't be eaten. If you want to live a comfortable life, you can't just consider men. You have to take care of the situation at home. You are still young..."
Jiang's mother kept on nagging and didn't want to ask Jiang Shuyao whether she was happy or unhappy. After all, marriage is a lifelong matter. Even though people now emphasize freedom of marriage, there are still many divorces. But she loves her daughter and still hopes that she can find a good man to spend her life with, so that they can grow old together and live a happy life.
Song Shuyao just listened without saying anything and ate quietly. Finally, she replied, "I understand." Then she let Jiang's mother go out to eat.
Jiang's mother thought that the children had listened to her and stopped making a fuss. The matter was over, and she felt relieved. The two children did not look heartless just now, especially her own daughter, who even hit someone. How could she say that she didn't care? But it didn't matter if she cared, she was just afraid that she would be stubborn and insist on being together. Fortunately, she listened to her, and slowly their feelings faded after they stopped contacting each other.
However, Jiang's mother didn't expect that the matter was far from over.
Not to mention another day, Hao Yuanchao came to the house again after dinner that night, this time with a big bag of food. He came and said he came to see Jiang Shuyao to see how her illness was.
Jiang's father and mother looked at each other in confusion. Isn't this a cancellation of the engagement?
Hao Yuanchao was shameless and resolutely did not mention the issue of breaking off the engagement. He insisted on coming to visit the patient. He did not smile or laugh, but looked very serious. He seemed to be able to fool people more than usual.
Unfortunately, no matter how good Jiang Shuyao was at fooling people, she didn't come out to see him.
Hao Yuanchao was not annoyed. Before leaving, he walked to Jiang Shuyao's door and told her that he would come to see her tomorrow. He asked her to take her medicine on time, rest early, and get better quickly.
Are you clearly planning to go back on your word?
Jiang's father and mother were worried again when they went to sleep. Why was there no determination and they could go back on their word?
His old roommate was still confused. This morning he said he wouldn't burden the girl by bringing gifts to her house, but when he came back he got a slap on the face, and he was asked to find the tickets for the cakes and fruits. How could he keep coming to her house?
"Aren't you reluctant to leave the girl after seeing her?"
Hao Yuanchao lay on the bed, supporting his head with his hands behind his head, a smile in his eyes, "Yes, I can't bear to leave."
If you are willing to give it up once, you will not be able to give it up a second time.
After that slap, it was no use calling him Comrade Hao.
But those tears really pierced my heart, and it still hurt.

The spacious room held a large bed. On the left wall was a built-in wardrobe, where clothes were hung in various categories, and next to the wardrobe was a full-length mirror. On the other side stood a dressing table, also with built-in cabinets, housing various cosmetics and skincare products. The bathroom was on the opposite wall from the wardrobe, further away from the bed. The room was otherwise devoid of unnecessary decorations, a minimalist design. Pulling aside the curtains revealed a row of floor-to-ceiling windows. The glass was one-way, allowing for clear views from inside, but obscure views from outside, effectively protecting privacy.
Song Shuyao knew the layout of this room very clearly, because she was the one who chose and decorated it. There was a time when the man's things were mixed in here, but since they broke up, all the items that did not belong to her were cleared out, and the entire bedroom was filled with only her things.
This is her villa bedroom, which has two floors. The decoration style is a blend of Chinese and Western styles. The most notable feature is probably the lush vegetation on the outside and the minimalist decoration of the rooms inside. There is a large open kitchen on the first floor. The living room is connected to the kitchen. One wall is also a floor-to-ceiling glass window, which faces the swimming pool. Outside the swimming pool are tall trees, which block the view from outside.
The second floor was her private territory, rarely bringing anyone up. Each room was decorated differently: a study, a darkroom for developing photos, a studio, etc. The villa also had a small wine cellar, which contained some of her own wine collection, as well as wines she had bought while traveling or had been given as gifts, both expensive and cheap.
There is a garden in the backyard of the villa with a grape rack. After she had wandered enough and was ready to settle down, an area here was cleared to grow some seasonal vegetables. There were only a few varieties, and it was also a place to kill time.
At this moment, Song Shuyao was standing in the bedroom of the villa, feeling a little dazed. Was she back?
Song Shuyao stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling glass window. She suddenly pulled open the curtains with force. At that moment, sunlight shone in, and tiny dust particles flew in the light. The familiar green trees were still in sight, but she could not see further. The land of the villa that did not belong to her was covered with white mist, as if separating it into two worlds.
