Upon hearing Yang Qiaoqiao's words, Tong Xuejiao showed a hint of hesitation.
Yang Qiaoqiao continued, "Sister Xuejiao, don't worry, I might say something hurtful. If you really never want to see Brother Yan again, I'll be the bad guy for you."
"I'm going to say the harshest things I can think of, I guarantee I'll make him so ashamed he'll never dare to see you again."
Hearing Yang Qiaoqiao's confident words, Tong Xuejiao's lips twitched, and she subconsciously said, "There's no need to be so harsh. After all, we grew up together since childhood!"
What annoys me about him is that he keeps guarding my door, and if I don't let him in, it makes me seem like I'm being heartless.
“Every day when my parents come home, they nag me about how heartless I am and ask me how badly I want to torment him before they stop.”
They said if I keep causing trouble, they won't be able to face Uncle Yan and Aunt Yan anymore. But Qiaoqiao, tell me, is this me causing trouble?
I didn't ask him to guard my door, right?
Yang Qiaoqiao suppressed a laugh and nodded solemnly, saying, "Yes, it's not your fault that you caused this trouble."
She finally understood that Tong Xuejiao did have feelings for Yan Heqing.
Tong Xuejiao herself couldn't get over that hurdle in her heart, and Yan Heqing's pursuit was too intense, which put Tong Xuejiao in a difficult position, leaving her with no way to back down.
So when they left the Tong family, Yang Qiaoqiao told Yan Heqing, "Brother Yan, Sister Xuejiao is not willing to accept you for the time being. Why don't you stop guarding here and go back to rest for a while?"
Yan Heqing looked at Yang Qiaoqiao with some confusion.
Yang Qiaoqiao couldn't be too explicit about this matter, so she could only say to Yan Heqing, "Everything should be done in moderation!"
When pursuing a woman, you can't just relentlessly chase after her; you need to give both of you a chance to relax.
After saying this, Yang Qiaoqiao didn't explain further and got into the car with Huo Beixiao and left.
Yan Heqing watched Huo Beixiao and Yang Qiaoqiao's car leave, pondering what Yang Qiaoqiao had just said.
As darkness fell, he glanced at the Tong family's old house and finally made up his mind.
When Tong's parents returned with their granddaughter, they were somewhat surprised not to see Yan Heqing at the door.
Then came a secret sense of smugness.
They thought that Yan Heqing had finally moved their daughter, and that their daughter had finally let Yan Heqing into the family.
The elderly couple looked at each other, their eyes filled with indescribable joy.
They absolutely hoped that Yan Heqing could become their son-in-law.
Yan Heqing is good-looking, capable, and comes from a good family. Moreover, they have watched him grow up since he was a child. The Yan family has good upbringing, and Yan Heqing's character is impeccable.
Such a good son-in-law is hard to find even with a lantern.
Not to mention that he's their granddaughter's biological father.
The elderly couple were overjoyed, thinking they could finally celebrate their daughter's wedding. They returned home with beaming smiles.
But they found that there was no one else in the huge house except for the two aunts and Tong Xuejiao.
Unable to contain herself any longer, Tong's mother couldn't help but ask, "Jiaojiao, where is your brother Yan?"
Tong Xuejiao was stunned for a moment. Could it be that Yan Heqing was no longer guarding outside the door?
Has Yan Heqing finally given up?
The moment this thought popped into her head, she felt a sudden emptiness in her heart, as if a piece of it had been emptied out.
"Oh, he probably went back." Although Tong Xuejiao felt uneasy, she said calmly.
Seeing her daughter's expression, Tong's mother couldn't help but ask cautiously, "Jiaojiao, you didn't say anything to Xiaoyan today, did you?"
"What could I possibly have to say to him?" Tong Xuejiao said with an arrogant expression.
Tong's mother couldn't help but mutter, "That's strange. Why isn't Xiao Yan outside today? He never left this early before!"
I even asked the housekeeper to buy his favorite seafood today so I could make him seafood porridge!
These days, Tong Xuejiao has ignored Yan Heqing.
However, Tong's mother viewed Yan Heqing with the typical mother-in-law's eye on her son-in-law, growing to like him more and more the more she looked at him.
Naturally, she couldn't bear to see her ideal husband suffer.
So, Tong's mother tried every day to find ways to feed Yan Heqing.
Seeing that his daughter's face was calm but her eyes betrayed disappointment, the father quickly tried to cover it up, saying, "Perhaps Xiao Yan had something to do today and left early."
They own several large factories and companies; it's not right for them to be working right outside our door every day.
As he spoke, Tong's father gave Tong's mother a wink.
Tong's mother glanced at her daughter and immediately understood what Tong's father meant. She quickly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Xiao Yan must have had something to do today, so she left early."
Tong Xuejiao: ……
"What does it matter to me whether he leaves early or late? He'd better never come back, so you won't keep nagging me all the time."
After saying that, Tong Xuejiao went back to eating in silence.
After dinner, she and Tong's parents played with Xiao Piao Liang for a while, then she made an excuse that she still had work to do and went upstairs.
Upstairs, from the balcony of her room, she could see the place where Yan Heqing used to wait every day.
After entering the house, she habitually went to the balcony.
His gaze habitually drifted to the place where Yan Heqing spent his days.
The place was completely empty; there wasn't a soul in sight.
She realized what was happening, and unconsciously frowned, patting her forehead in annoyance. "I'm really obsessed. Isn't it good that that bastard Yan Heqing is gone?"
I'll never have to see him and feel annoyed again.
After saying that, she turned around and went back to her room. After closing the door to the balcony, she drew the curtains.
Since Xiao Piao Liang was born, her maternal grandmother has always taken care of her, so Tong Xuejiao doesn't have to worry about the child.
She threw herself onto the bed and forced herself to sleep by closing her eyes.
But I just couldn't fall asleep.
I was even so irritable that I wanted to get up and have a drink.
She forcefully suppressed her urge to drink.
But she couldn't fall asleep until the next morning, so when she woke up, she had big dark circles under her eyes.
Just as she reached the stairwell to go downstairs, she overheard Yan Heqing's parents talking to her parents downstairs.
