I thought my rejection of He Xiaoyu that day was clear enough, but when I got home that afternoon, He Xiaoyu came looking for me again.
To be precise, he was waiting at the intersection, and when he saw Xu Genshan's carriage return, he followed it.
"Brother Genshan." She had barely uttered a soft word when Xu Genshan took a step back, looking at her warily.
I finally managed to explain this to Liu Fang a few days ago, and now when I see He Xiaoyu, I feel disgusted with her from the bottom of my heart.
Liu Fang was about to lift the curtain and get off the carriage, but upon hearing this sound, she stood up and sat back down.
"Fang, get off the carriage." Xu Genshan ignored He Xiaoyu and turned to call out to the carriage.
He Xiaoyu was surprised to find Liu Fang still inside the carriage. Damn it, that woman didn't come out at first, making her think that Liu Fang had already gone inside.

Finally, Liu Fang lifted the curtain, and Xu Genshan helped her down, saying, "Be careful." These words of concern sounded particularly grating to He Xiaoyu.
Liu Fang got off the carriage, glanced at He Xiaoyu, and didn't say anything. She herself disliked this woman very much, this woman who coveted her man.
In that one glance, He Xiaoyu felt that Liu Fang was provoking and showing off. She clenched her hands at her sides and said, "Brother Genshan, I have something to say to you."
"There's nothing to say between us." Xu Genshan said indifferently, leading the carriage toward the back door.
He Xiaoyu, emboldened by some unknown source, stood in front of Xu Genshan, and in the blink of an eye, she had transformed into a tearful figure.
The speed of her actions left Liu Fang speechless. This was He Xiaoyu's specialty. Back when she was at Master Li's house, she would cry like this and Master Li would soften his heart and give in to her every whim.
"Brother Genshan, I was ignorant back then, I was wrong, please don't be angry, I already know I was wrong."
This tearful plea might have worked on Master Li back then, but for Xu Genshan, it only elicited impatience.
"What happened back then is in the past. You don't need to apologize to me. You didn't do anything wrong. Don't come to my house again."
That night, Liu Fang asked Xu Genshan if he was upset that He Xiaoyu had chosen another man.

It would be a lie to say he wasn't upset, but Xu Genshan quickly recovered from his distress. He couldn't give He Xiaoyu what she wanted, so he stopped dwelling on the issue.
Now, when he sees He Xiaoyu, he no longer feels the same anger he once did. He chose this path himself, and he is very fortunate that he made the right choice. He feels very lucky to have married Liu Fang.
“Brother Genshan, you’re just saying that out of anger. Tell me, what do you want in return for your forgiveness?” He Xiaoyu walked towards Xu Genshan, crying. She didn’t know where she got the confidence from.
"You're angry about what I did back then, Brother Genshan. Even though I've been with the Li family all these years, you're always on my mind. I regret what I did back then every single moment."
The commotion outside had already attracted the Xu family. Fu Man'er ran the fastest, and oh, it was that annoying woman.
Xu Yi hadn't heard what they were saying yet, but he immediately covered Fu Man'er's ears, not wanting her to hear anything more.
"Ugh, I can't hear you." Fu Man'er tugged at Xu Yi's hand unhappily, but Xu Yi didn't budge. Not only did he not let her hear, he also carried her back.
That's really bad. Fu Man'er was using both her hands and feet. If Xu Yi hadn't had some martial arts skills, he probably would have been injured today.
Xu Genshan, standing at the door, grew increasingly irritated. "Why can't this person understand me?" he thought. "Don't do it in front of my house." With that, he turned the carriage around, not even glancing at He Xiaoyu.
He Xiaoyu wanted to chase after him, but Liu Fang stepped forward and blocked her way. "He Xiaoyu, Genshan has already made himself very clear. Save yourself some face."

He Xiaoyu looked at the woman in front of her. She had heard that she had been sent to the kitchen of a restaurant to learn how to make chopping blocks since she was a child. Such a woman should be big and burly, but Liu Fang was extremely delicate-looking.
She was confident that she could outshine a big, burly woman and win back Xu Genshan's heart, but Liu Fang was actually prettier than her.
"What do you know? Genshan and I were already in love when we were young. You're just a woman that Genshan married casually later. What right do you have to interfere in Genshan's affairs?"
He Xiaoyu had no idea that Liu Fang already knew about what happened back then. Since Xu Genshan was now completely unresponsive, she decided to try and persuade Liu Fang instead.
The couple had a good relationship, so she had to say things like that to make Liu Fang overthink things, hoping to create a rift between them so she could take advantage of the situation.
Liu Fang's gaze darkened. Had He Xiaoyu gone mad? "I don't want to get involved in your affairs, but you shouldn't have any more illusions about Genshan. We're living a good life."
"Impossible. Brother Genshan has me in his heart. He definitely has me in his heart. You just don't know it. Let me tell you, once Brother Genshan figures things out, he will definitely marry me."
Just as she was thinking that, she heard a sharp slap, and He Xiaoyu's head was knocked to the side.
Liu Fang turned her head to look and saw that it was Old Mrs. Xu. She was still wearing an apron around her waist, obviously having just come out of the kitchen.
Grandma Xu was furious. As soon as she came out of the kitchen, she heard what He Xiaoyu said. Without thinking, she rushed over and slapped her.
"Fang, don't worry, I'll stand up for you. Genshan will only marry you in this life. This crazy woman is talking nonsense, don't believe her."
Old Mrs. Xu didn't want to talk about what happened back then because she was afraid it would damage the relationship between the couple. She thought it was better to avoid trouble. Who knew that this shameless woman would come knocking on their door?
The pent-up anger in Old Mrs. Xu's heart suddenly burst forth. The way the He family had acted back then had already made Old Mrs. Xu extremely disgusted, but Xu Genshan had persuaded her for a long time.
She gradually let go of the matter, even treating it as if it didn't exist. Her children and grandchildren had their own lives to live, so she didn't care so much.
Afterwards, they started to associate with the He family without holding a grudge. They thought the He family was aware of the situation, but now it seems that not making a scene back then only emboldened them.
"You son of a bitch, have you no shame? You don't even know what kind of person you are, yet you dare to come to my house to cause trouble. Today I'm going to see just how shameless you really are, and see if your He family will still care about you."
As she spoke, Old Mrs. Xu grabbed He Xiaoyu's hand and dragged her toward the He family's house. She really dragged her, because He Xiaoyu had no strength to resist at all. While dragging her, Old Mrs. Xu also cursed the He family's ancestors.
"Wow, Grandma is awesome! Grandma is awesome!" Fu Man'er's cheering voice came from the doorway.
Xu Yi went to pour a bowl of water, and when he turned around, Fu Man'er was gone. When he looked towards the door, he saw Fu Man'er run out.
By the time he caught up to the door, Fu Man'er was already happily following beside Grandma Xu.
Well, I didn't keep an eye on her again. This girl will probably talk to him for half the night again.
