They realized that simply canceling the engagement wouldn't be enough to vent their anger.
Unless Tang Yanyan is the kind of person who is easy to talk to, only cares about the result and doesn't care about the process.
However, according to Xia Yuxin's judgment, the other party was able to get to where she is today entirely because she always remembered the harm Xia Che had caused her, and with a heart full of hatred, she gradually became the outstanding person she is today.
"Logically speaking, for someone who has come out of hell, facing the culprit who caused him so much suffering... simply canceling the engagement seems too lenient. Perhaps I could start from this angle?"
Xia Yuxin touched her chin; this was a shared habit between her and Xia Che, the brother and sister.
When I'm thinking, I always like to touch something.
Gradually, Xia Yuxin came up with a new plan.
"This method is a bit unethical... Forget it, the most important thing now is to save my brother's life. As for when this misunderstanding will be cleared up... let's talk about it later, let's get through this period first."
Xia Yuxin shrugged helplessly.
She is still under house arrest.
Moreover, even without the lockdown, he couldn't leave New York City, let alone return to China.
What happens next...
Let's talk about it later.
The primary task now is to persuade Tang Yanyan to allow the Tang family's armed forces to protect her brother.
It's a bit irresponsible, but that's just Xia Yuxin's personality; she only cares about the present.
Xia Yuxin gradually came up with an idea, brewed the tea, picked it up, and walked back.
"Actually, I was just about to say that drinking too much tea is bad for your health, and my sleep quality is very poor. Even if I drink tea during the day, it will affect my sleep at night."
Hearing the noise, Tang Yanyan put down the magazine in her hand, looked up at Xia Yuxin, and said lightly, "Thank you for your hospitality, but let's call it a day. I want to sleep for a while on the plane, so I won't drink this cup of tea."
These words were not a lie.
Tang Yanyan had to catch her flight back to China soon, and she happened to have a habit of sleeping and resting on the flight. If she drank tea now, she definitely wouldn't be able to fall asleep.
"Do you have any plans for the future?"
Xia Yuxin asked curiously.
"No, I need to catch a delayed flight, maybe I'll grab something to eat?"
Tang Yanyan thought about it; today was a rare day when she didn't make any specific plans.
She had become accustomed to performing various precise and accurate activities every day, almost mechanically.
For example, Tang Yanyan's daily routine includes reading for the first half hour and exercising for the second half hour. This kind of activity, which is so precise that even an hour is divided into several parts, is a common practice.
Like today, when there are no plans at all, only a general direction...
Very rare.
So Tang Yanyan didn't know what to do next.
"Since you don't have any plans, why don't you listen to my thoughts?"
Xia Yuxin's eyes gleamed with an inexplicable light. She sat opposite Tang Yanyan, a confident smile playing on her lips.
"What are your thoughts?"
Tang Yanyan repeated herself, still not understanding what Xia Yuxin was up to.
"If you want me to stay in Jiang City for a few more days, I advise you to give up that idea as soon as possible. My schedule is very full. Being able to spare a few days to go to Jiang City is already enough."
Tang Yanyan gave Xia Yuxin a light tap.
"Don't you think that simply canceling the engagement is a bit too simplistic for your and your brother's situation?"
Xia Yuxin didn't waste any words and hit the nail on the head.
Upon hearing this, a slight ripple appeared in Tang Yanyan's eyes.
She had indeed thought about that question.
The damage Xia Che inflicted on me has never healed in over a decade. The only punishment the culprit who made me suffer all this received was the annulment of the engagement.
It is indeed a bit too light.
I feel a little sorry for the past when I worked so hard to become better.
"Go on."
Tang Yanyan placed the magazine on the coffee table, but the cup of tea that would keep her awake and prevent her from sleeping, which she had originally not planned to drink, was now held in her hands again.
Because she had a premonition that what Xia Yuxin was about to say might be very explosive.
"Think about it, your brother did that kind of thing to you, gave you hope and then made you despair. Simply canceling the engagement is too easy. Since this engagement means nothing to you, why not let your brother experience what you felt back then?"
Xia Yuxin's lips gradually curved into a smile, a smile that was confident and full of wisdom.
"You mean... you want me to take revenge on him? To give him hope?"
After thinking about it for a moment, Tang Yanyan admitted that Xia Yuxin's suggestion did indeed tempt her.
It's too easy to simply cancel the engagement.
After all, it was just a verbal engagement, and canceling it was just a formality. In reality, even if she didn't go to Jiang City, she could simply pretend it never happened.
The thought of the harm Xia Che had caused her made Tang Yanyan feel a tightness in her chest. She took a deep breath, and her eyes gradually hardened.
All right……
It seems she really needs to seriously consider Xia Yuxin's suggestion.
"Bingo, you can stay in Jiang City for a few more days. During this time, go after your older brother, make him fall for you, and then dump him. Wouldn't that be much more satisfying?"
Xia Yuxin chuckled and revealed her entire plan: "With your current looks and the status of your fiancée, I can't imagine why you would refuse me. How about it, do you want to consider it?"
"In this way, I can take my revenge and settle my past grudges. At the same time, I can also protect Xia Che with the security forces of my Tang family, just as you wish. Moreover... after I truly get rid of Xia Che and am no longer bound by the marriage contract, that's probably what you really want to see, isn't it?"
Tang Yanyan followed Xia Yuxin's words and said calmly, looking at Xia Yuxin with some amazement: "Killing three birds with one stone, you won't lose out no matter what, but will make a huge profit... You're actually that smart."
Xia Yuxin's thoughts are not hard to guess.
But what's remarkable is that even though he guessed her thoughts, he still intended to carry out the plan she gave him.
Because Tang Yanyan is not at a disadvantage.
Whether Xia Che likes someone or not is something Tang Yanyan doesn't care about at all.
They even took their own thoughts and feelings into account...
It seems that not only has Xia Yuxin made progress over the years, but she has also grown considerably.
"Oh dear, what's the secret to my intelligence? Doesn't everyone already know that?"
Xia Yuxin smiled with her eyes narrowed, pressing her hands together lightly, clearly pleased with Tang Yanyan's praise.
Then, looking at the beautiful girl in front of her, Xia Yuxin silently apologized in her heart.
If it weren't for her meddling back then, things would definitely have turned out differently, right?
But right now, all she wants to do is protect her older brother; Xia Yuxin doesn't have time to care about anything else.
After this matter is over and the truth comes out, Xia Yuxin doesn't care whether she will be scorned or lose her brother because of it.
Xia Yuxin's only thought now is to protect her older brother and save his life.
All she wanted was for her brother to live.
