Qiao Xiufen watched him try to get her out, and panicked. Forgetting everything else, she knelt down on the ground with a thud.
Not to mention Duan Jingwei and Geng Ling, even Qiao Chen was shocked. He tried to step forward to pull her away, but Qiao Xiufen pushed him away.
Qiao Xiufen: "Father-in-law, I know this is our fault. But can you let your child resolve this on their own? After all, it concerns a major life event like marriage! You don't want to break up such a good family, do you?"
Qiao Chen's eyes were moved, and she couldn't help but shout towards the direction of the house.
“Sisi, I know I was wrong. What I said yesterday was just a moment of anger, not what I really meant. Come out here, let’s talk this out. Don’t let our parents, who are so old, suffer with us. Their health isn’t good, and if anything happens to them, it would be our fault.”
Upon hearing this, Geng Ling quickly glanced in the direction of Duan Sisi's room, fearing that Duan Sisi might not be able to resist running out again.
She rushed over and pulled Qiao Xiufen along.
"Qiao Chen's mother, you already said that the two children should handle their own affairs, so what are you doing here? Whose life are you trying to shorten?"
"That's not what I meant! I meant..."
Before Qiao Xiufen could explain, Geng Ling hurriedly said to Duan Jingwei, "Honey, hurry up and help Qiao Chen's mother up!"
Duan Jingwei and Geng Ling used brute force to pull Qiao Xiufen up, throwing her along with the things they had brought.
Qiao Xiufen looked at the closed door and slapped her thigh in frustration.
"Sisi is immature, so why should her parents be immature too! Why do they have to meddle in the two children's affairs! Will it be better if they ruin everything?"
Qiao Chen patted Qiao Xiufen on the shoulder to comfort her: "Mom, don't get involved. I'll handle this. Don't worry, I'll definitely handle this well and bring Sisi back to you!"
His boastful words brought trouble to Duan Sisi.
Not only did they stay by Duan Sisi's side constantly, but they also insisted on living right outside Duan Sisi's house. This made it inconvenient for Duan Sisi to go to the hospital for a check-up, and it also made it difficult for Duan Jingwei and Geng Ling to go out.
In a fit of anger, Duan Jingwei called the property management and had the security guards forcibly kick him out, finally bringing him peace.
But Qiao Chen didn't give up. Since he couldn't block the road at home, he blocked the road at Duan Sisi's coffee shop.
Wenrou watched as Qiao Chen came repeatedly, causing her immense distress and making it impossible for her to continue her normal work.
"Brother-in-law, please don't make things difficult for me, okay? I still have to go to work, and there are so many customers waiting!"
Qiao Chen tiptoed and peeked into the room inside. She then took out a pack of sanitary napkins and a bag of brown sugar ginger tea from her bag and placed them on the front desk.
“I didn’t come here to make things difficult for you. Your sister Sisi’s period is coming soon, and she always has pain when she gets it. Please give this to her and make sure she drinks it.”
After giving her instructions, Qiao Chen waited for Wenrou to agree before leaving, turning back to look at her several times.
No sooner had he left than Duan Sisi and Su Yan emerged from that small room.
Wenrou handed the things to Duan Sisi, saying, "Sisi, your brother-in-law gave these to you. It's not so bad that he still thinks of these things for you."
Duan Sisi sneered and casually tossed the things onto the table.
“If he were pursuing me, I believe he would have remembered my period schedule. But now, he probably just happened to look at my calendar.”
Su Yan picked up the brown sugar ginger tea and looked at it. "Is it very painful for you? Should I find a doctor to take a look?"
"It's nothing." Duan Sisi waved her hand casually. "It's just that ever since I started taking those weird medicines, my periods seem to have become even more irregular. I didn't get my period last month, let alone this month."
Su Yan said with a serious expression, "Then you should take a look even more carefully. You can't take this lightly."
Duan Sisi nonchalantly hugged her, "Oh, it's better if you don't come. I'd be even angrier if you did."
Afraid that Su Yan would bring it up again, she took the initiative to change the subject: "Wu Lili invited you to that class reunion too, right? Come on, let's go see what kind of trouble she's up to this afternoon."
Su Yan had no interest whatsoever. "Why go anywhere else when you could be doing that kind of free time!"
“I’m going to calm down,” Duan Sisi said excitedly. “I’m going to listen to how they complain about their husbands. Maybe after I hear it, I’ll calm down.”
She completely misunderstood the meaning of a class reunion.
When they arrived at the agreed location, Su Yan went to find a place to park first, while Duan Sisi went in alone to take a look.
This is hardly a class reunion; there are only three people there.
Wu Lili looked at her enthusiastically, waving her arms outstretched.
"Sisi is here!"
Duan Sisi, who was about to sneak away, had to turn back and forced a smile as she walked over.
"Why are there only a few of you? Where are the others? Haven't they arrived yet?"
Wu Lili waved her hand, "The main reason is that you didn't come to the last class reunion, so I was thinking of finding an opportunity to get together with you again."
She tilted her head to look behind Duan Sisi, "Where's Su Yan? Didn't she come with you?"
"She's parking downstairs, she'll be up in a bit."
Upon hearing this, Wu Lili immediately clapped her hands excitedly.
"I've finally managed to get Su Yan, this big shot, here! We haven't seen her since her divorce!"
Her words were echoed by two other female classmates.
How did you know she was divorced?
Duan Sisi remembered that even Su Yan's biological mother didn't know about this news, let alone these old classmates who kept in touch every year.
“A year ago, at the class reunion you didn’t attend, we ran into Su Yan’s ex-husband, who was with a woman.”
Wu Lili spoke with a hidden meaning, and then glanced at the direction of the stairs. Seeing no one in sight, she immediately leaned over and asked Duan Sisi with a face full of curiosity.
"You two have always been close, so why did Su Yan get a divorce?"
Hearing this, Duan Sisi had already grasped the significance of the gathering. Leaning back in her chair, she casually replied, "I don't know either, she didn't tell me."
A hint of disappointment appeared on Wu Lili's face. "Oh dear, then she must be having a hard time, otherwise she wouldn't be hiding it like this."
She made a definitive judgment on Su Yan's life.
Wu Lili sighed deeply, "Sigh, speaking of which, she was considered the most beautiful girl in our class back then. Besides her, you were the only other one. The line of men chasing after her could stretch all the way to the school gate. But I never imagined she would end up like this."
As Duan Sisi listened, she couldn't help but sense a hint of schadenfreude in his voice.
She almost laughed, and was about to speak up for Su Yan when a commotion arose behind her.
Duan Sisi and Wu Lili turned their gazes in the same direction and saw a slender beauty bump into a waiter.
The beautiful women had long, flowing hair, and from this angle, their faces were not visible. Although their faces were not visible, one could guess at their beauty from the admiring glances of the men at the other tables.
Wu Lili sized up the beautiful woman, a hint of jealousy uncontrollably showing in her eyes.
The female classmate pointed to the bag the pretty girl was carrying and asked Wu Lili in surprise, "Lili, isn't that bag she's carrying the French brand you always carry? I remember you carried it once at the last class reunion."
