Chapter 217 Yan Li's Guilty Feelings
After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he walked into the kitchen without hesitation, leaving Yan Li alone in the living room.
She peeked into the kitchen.
Once she was sure no one was coming out, she quickly took the contract out of her bag and put it in Xiao Ran's laptop bag.
Then, pretending nothing was wrong, he turned and walked towards the window.
If my estimation is correct, he should have seen the contract after he got home.
Once the contract is successfully obtained by him, it proves that the company belongs to him.
That means I've repaid the debt I owed him.
After being so busy for so long, she can finally get some rest.
The weather is nice today; the trees outside are lush and green, making it a very pleasant place.
Yan Li was lost in thought when her eyes suddenly caught sight of a white Audi A4 slowly driving into the residential area.
Her brow twitched.
If I remember correctly, that car should belong to Xiao Ran's mother.
It looks like my ex-mother-in-law and ex-father-in-law have arrived.
I should get ready to open the door.
Qiu Yuru parked her car in a public parking space in the community. Instead of getting out of the car, she looked at Xiao Shengrong next to her with a worried expression.
"Do you think Yan Li will be angry with me for that phone call I made last time?" she asked hesitantly.
Although I don't think I did anything wrong, there's always some affection between us when we meet, and since I'm an elder, I can't help but feel awkward.
She's always been a person with a sharp tongue but a kind heart.
Seeing Qiu Yuru's conflicted expression, Xiao Shengrong couldn't help but laugh.
"What? You, who fears neither heaven nor earth, are actually afraid of a mere ex-daughter-in-law?"
Qiu Yuru rolled her eyes at him. "How could I be scared? I just feel embarrassed."
Although I scolded her, it was her fault first. To be honest, I really didn't do anything to wrong her.
Xiao Shengrong retorted, "Then what's there to be embarrassed about?"
Now that I've already said it, what's the point of thinking about it now?
Besides, if an elder scolds a younger person, even if they feel wronged, there's nothing they can do; they can't exactly flip the table.
If that were the case, I probably would have already gotten into a fight with Qiu Yuru's mother.
Besides, what else can be done after the insults have already been hurled?
Qiu Yuru still hesitated, "Mainly because I feel that Yan Li has had a tough time, and besides, she's Yan Xici's older sister. You said this..."
Xiao Shengrong sighed helplessly. He opened the car door and glanced at the dawdling Qiu Yuru. "Alright, stop nagging and hurry upstairs. Don't keep Lao Yan waiting."
Since we're already here, there's no reason not to come in.
Seeing this, Qiu Yuru had no choice but to open the car door as well. The two of them took out all the things they had bought yesterday from the trunk, carried the bags upstairs.
Yan Li had been waiting there for a while. After hearing footsteps in the hallway, she opened the door and went out to greet them.
Qiu Yuru was still hesitating about what to say when she saw Yan Li, but when she looked up, she saw Yan Li standing at the door with a smile, and she felt a little embarrassed.
Yan Li, on the other hand, smiled warmly, "Dad, Mom, you..."
Realizing her mistake after saying that, she quickly and embarrassedly corrected herself, saying, "Uncle and Aunt."
Her tone was very awkward and hesitant.
Now, the person who should call them Mom and Dad is no longer me, but my younger sister.
Despite her calm demeanor, she was actually incredibly nervous inside, worried that Qiu Yuru wouldn't forgive her.
She had even planned that if the topic came up later, she would apologize profusely and she would never talk back, no matter what hurtful things the girl said!
As long as she is sincere enough, she will surely be able to move Qiu Yuru.
If all else fails, then write a guarantee yourself!
In short, for her sister's happiness and to make up for her past mistakes, she felt it was worth it to do anything!
Xiao Shengrong felt embarrassed when he heard "uncle" and "aunt".
To be honest, after all these years, he had gotten used to Yan Li calling him Dad and Qiu Yuru Mom. Now that she suddenly changed her address, it just felt a little strange.
He pursed his lips and forced a smile.
"Um, you're here pretty early."
"Okay." Yan Li nodded, then quickly made way for them. "You two go in first, let's talk inside."
After saying that, she sensibly took the things from her mother's hands.
He smiled gently at Qiu Yuru.
"We're already so happy that you came, and you've brought so much stuff, it's really too much trouble."
Although she always acts superior at work, she is actually very polite in front of her parents.
He just doesn't like to talk, so he seems a bit cold.
Qiu Yuru was surprised that Yan Li didn't hold a grudge against her at all and was instead so enthusiastic towards her.
Humans are truly strange creatures, especially when it comes to emotions; they are simply inexplicable.
When she was his daughter-in-law, he always thought she was cold and unapproachable, but now that the relationship is over, he suddenly feels that Yan Li is actually a pitiful girl.
Xiao Ran is already getting married, while she's still single.
Without Yan Li, the Yan family's circumstances would not be what they are now.
