Since that incident, Tang Yanyan has become a completely different person.
He never mentioned his experience of staying at the Xia family's house again.
Although Xia Che later contacted her, Tang Yanyan guessed that he probably realized he had spoken too harshly and wanted to win back her as a friend... or rather, he wanted to get this hardworking cash cow back.
In Tang Yanyan's opinion, Xia Che didn't come because he was worried about losing her; he came for the money.
Sometimes, words can hurt more than a sharp knife.
Not all words spoken can be taken back. At least in Tang Yanyan's eyes, Xia Che has already caused her harm. So even if he comes back to her, Xia Che does not deserve to be forgiven.
This guy was so realistic that he was impossible to even get angry with. Whenever Tang Yanyan thought of him, all she felt was disgust.
She had thought Xia Che was the light that appeared in her dark world.
However, she discovered that the reality was not what she had imagined at all.
No one knows how Tang Yanyan recovered; she only knows that she changed completely after that day.
Do you hate it?
It should be hatred.
Tang Yanyan thought about it all night and finally decided to change.
The first thing to do is lose weight.
Tang Yanyan has been chubby since she was a child and is prone to weight gain. Although she doesn't understand why two slender parents would give birth to a chubby baby girl, it's obviously pointless for Tang Yanyan to worry about this now.
However, Tang Yanyan's tendency to gain weight easily, even from drinking water, means that she has to put in two to three times more effort than the average person to lose weight.
This is clearly more difficult than the average person losing weight.
If the difficulty of losing weight for the average person is 10, then what lies before Tang Yanyan is a mountain called 100.
She must conquer this mountain.
But to do this, Tang Yanyan needs a motivation.
Losing weight can be very boring and tests one's willpower, so motivation is very important.
Motivation can be a goal, a promise, or for a person.
Tang Yanyan understood this as well.
At first, she also wanted to find a goal, something unique to herself, something that could become the motivation she needed to conquer the mountains.
But soon, Tang Yanyan realized that she didn't need it anymore.
Xia Che was all she could think about.
It's not that Tang Yanyan's feelings for Xia Che are particularly deep, or whether she still harbors any fond memories from the past...
It is hatred.
His hatred for Xia Che was so intense it was like that of a vengeful ghost.
The light and darkness were brought to her by the same person. Xia Che, who once led her out of the abyss, was also the one who kicked her back into the abyss.
The road to weight loss is extremely tedious; it's a painful and thorny path.
Whenever Tang Yanyan wanted to give up, Xia Che's face would appear in her mind, along with the experiences they had shared. Her depleted energy would instantly be replenished. Her legs, which were already drenched in sweat and unable to take a single step, seemed to be reborn, and she felt an inexhaustible strength.
Hatred is more loyal than love, more reliable than friends, more steadfast than goals, and more enduring.
Hatred is inexhaustible.
Only when the day of true revenge arrives will the hatred disappear.
But before that, it was the biggest driving force.
Supporting Tang Yanyan's body, she walked step by step through the thorny road to success, until she successfully lost weight, pursued her studies, and gradually became the outstanding person she is today, receiving countless admirers.
hatred!
Tang Yanyan's eyes were filled with coldness.
Xia Yuxin was still wondering why she had canceled the engagement.
It would be a miracle if they didn't cancel it!
Although the hatred that has sustained me to this point is simply the annulment of the engagement, this kind of revenge seems somewhat weak...
But Tang Yanyan really couldn't think of a better way to get revenge on the other party.
She is still that kind-hearted little girl at heart.
Shaking her head in slight frustration, Tang Yanyan decided to put these things aside for the time being.
Anyway...
For that hypocritical guy who uses gentleness as a mask, publicly canceling the engagement must be a huge blow, right?
If there was no better way to vent her anger, Tang Yanyan thought that leaving it at that seemed alright.
"...What's wrong? You look so pale. Is it because you can't stand me talking badly about your brother? Hehe, I'm so sorry I hurt your feelings."
Tang Yanyan then noticed that Xia Yuxin's expression was becoming increasingly unpleasant as she spoke.
Black with hints of white, and a faint touch of crimson...
It did seem somewhat like he was feeling guilty.
Tang Yanyan thought she had misread it, after all, she couldn't think of anything that would make Xia Yuxin feel guilty.
"No...nothing like that. I can't believe you went that far, brother! I'm speechless...as a woman, I totally sympathize with you!"
Xia Yuxin finally came to her senses, her gaze darting away, her insincere behavior obvious even to a blind person.
But it wasn't what Tang Yanyan guessed, because her expression was bad because she had said bad things about Xia Che.
In fact...
Xia Yuxin was indeed feeling guilty at this moment, and Tang Yanyan's eyes were not wrong.
Why would I feel guilty?
The reason is that the words that hurt Tang Yanyan so much were not actually said by Xia Che.
It was herself...
Yes……
The culprit that Tang Yanyan had hated for over a decade was not her older brother, but Xia Yuxin!
Upon hearing this, Tang Yanyan raised an eyebrow, crossed her legs, and a playful glint flashed in her eyes. "Is that really what you think? You empathize with me?"
"Um... you've finished your tea, haven't you? I'll go get you a refill, don't go yet!"
Catching a glimpse of Tang Yanyan's ambiguous smile, Xia Yuxin panicked even more. She realized that if she didn't find an excuse to leave, the clever Tang Yanyan would definitely see through her. "Let me process this. I can't believe my brother did something so outrageous. I understand you now..."
Then, Xia Yuxin muttered to herself, picking up her teacup and walking to the other side, continuing to mutter, "That's too much, absolutely too much..."
This time, Tang Yanyan didn't stop her. After thinking about it, she figured it was still early and wouldn't delay her flight, so she picked up the magazine again and started flipping through it with great interest.
"Is it too much? Heh..."
Tang Yanyan chuckled softly and shook her head.
Her inner strength has been forged through years of trials and tribulations.
Even if bringing up old issues might cause a brief crack in her stable mindset, that would be the extent of the damage and wouldn't affect her for long.
If she had been so easily defeated, she wouldn't have been able to grow into the person she is today.
