Faced with such an aggressive Su Man, Jiang Yuan's face also turned cold.
"Do you have to say such harsh words? You contradicted my parents in front of so many people today, and I didn't say anything to you. Why are you still harping on such a small matter?"
Su Man was so angry that she laughed at being blamed like this.
"You and Longlong had a conflict, and your mother put all the blame on me without saying a word. Your father even used this as an excuse to break off the engagement with me. Wasn't it because I'm no longer a member of the Xue family that he was anxious to get rid of me?"
Jiang Yuan found this harsh and denied it without a second thought, "My parents aren't that powerful. They're just pissed off by you."
"Oh, not feeling powerful, huh? Then I have to ask you something. It was Longlong who hit you, so why weren't your parents mad at him? Do your parents get angry differently depending on who they are with? I get angry all the time, but Longlong never gets angry at all?"
"you!"
Jiang Yuan was speechless.
Before, Xue Man always followed his lead and listened to him in everything.
At this moment, Su Man was like a kitten showing its claws for the first time, and Jiang Yuan was scratched before he could even prepare.
It was not until now that Jiang Yuan realized that Xue Man also had a temper.
The two parted on bad terms.
Jiang Yuan was in a bad mood. After returning home, he locked himself in the room and sulked.
After an unknown amount of time, he heard some movement downstairs, as if some guests had arrived.
Jiang Yuan's eyes lit up. Could it be that Xue Man knew he was wrong and came to apologize?
Soon, there was a knock on his door.
"Brother Jiang Yuan, are you there?"
When Jiang Yuan recognized it was Xue Xiaoxiao, he was extremely disappointed and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
If she hadn't talked nonsense, the relationship between him and Xue Man wouldn't have become so awkward.
The knocking only lasted for a moment before silence returned outside.
He thought Xue Xiaoxiao had left tactfully, but not long after she was quiet, there was a knock on the door again.
"Son, Xiaoxiao, come over to play, come down quickly!"
"...knew."
Jiang's mother came to call him, and Jiang Yuan had no choice but to answer and went out reluctantly.
-
Downstairs, Jiang's father was holding Xue Xiaoxiao's hand and asking about her well-being.
At this moment, Xue Xiaoxiao was sitting in the seat where Xue Man usually sat. Jiang's father treated her as he treated Xue Man in the past, gently and lovingly.
This scene stung Jiang Yuan's eyes, and he couldn't help but start thinking about Su Man's words.
Maybe his parents are indeed the kind of people she described...
"Look at you, kid. What are you still standing there for? Come and greet the guests." Jiang's mother urged as she came over with a fruit plate.
Yesterday, she was in a state of panic and anxious to break off the engagement with Xue Man, which offended Xue Chongshan and his wife.
Early this morning, they received news that Xue Chongshan wanted to check whether their catering services met the standards.
Is this a joke? Xue Chongshan has been turning a blind eye all these years. Now he wants to investigate suddenly. Isn't this retaliation? It's really petty.
So she discussed it with Jiang's father, and the two of them invited Xue Xiaoxiao to their home to play. They thought that if they could bring Jiang Yuan and Xue Xiaoxiao together, all the problems would be solved.
Thinking of this, Jiang's mother smiled and said, "Is it because we are here that you young people can't talk easily? Old Jiang, let's step aside."
Father Jiang also smiled. He supported his knees and stood up. "I just happened to have a video conference. Jiang Yuan, please take good care of Xiaoxiao."
...
The ticking of the clock in the living room makes the room even quieter.
Xue Xiaoxiao looked at Jiang Yuan, who was a few steps away from her, and said timidly, "Brother Jiang Yuan, why don't you say anything?"
Whenever Jiang Yuan saw Xue Xiaoxiao, he would remember how Su Man coldly told him not to look for her when they parted just now.
If I spoke again, I would inevitably feel a little more resentful. "Why should I speak?"
Xue Xiaoxiao choked up and whispered, "But Uncle Jiang just said that you should treat me well."
"The fruits and tea are on the table. Eat them slowly and call me when you're done."
After saying that, Jiang Yuan turned and left.
"Hey, Brother Jiang Yuan!"
"That's right."
Jiang Yuan turned around and said, "I already know that Xue Man has been working in that restaurant. I also know that she stayed at the Xue family's house because Aunt Xue asked her to celebrate her birthday at home before leaving. Next time you lie, remember to cover it up better."
After saying that, Jiang Yuan left without looking back.
Xue Xiaoxiao watched Jiang Yuan's back disappear at the door. She gasped and her eyes became angry.
Xueman, Xueman! It's Xueman again!
Why is she always haunting me like this!
-
Xue Xiaoxiao was furious and went back to Xue's house without even saying goodbye. As soon as she arrived near her home, she saw Xue Chongshan and Chen Wanli standing at the door bidding farewell to Su Man.
"Xiao Man, if you don't get used to living outside, just come home. This will always be your home."
"I know, Mom."
Xue Chongshan scolded her as usual, "Look at you, with just these few things, how can you go out and have a good time?"
Su Man didn't take the suitcase, but carried a travel bag in one hand, which only contained a few intimate clothes.
Although Xue Chongshan said this, his eyes were red behind his back. He always criticized Xue Man, but he also loved her sincerely.
Su Man hugged Xue Chongshan's shoulders with one hand and said, "I will take good care of myself. Thank you, Dad."
Chen Wanli was already in tears, and Xue Chongshan kept sniffing and tilting his head back, fearing that his tears would fall.
...
Xue Xiaoxiao sneered in her heart when she saw this scene.
Haha, it seems that they can never forget that bastard. In this case, she should find a new way out.
