Seeing that Xie's mother was still standing there in a daze, Xie's father shouted again in exasperation, "Hurry up! Do you want to stand here and spend the night here?!"
"oh!"
Mother Xie was still unable to recover from what had just happened, and she blankly took out her phone and started dialing.
After the call was connected, Xie's mother took a long time to explain what had happened that day.
Xie Chen almost lost his temper when he heard that his son had been beaten by Xie Xinran, that good-for-nothing.
He immediately told the two elderly people to find a hotel to stay in, and he and his wife would find a car to go there right away.
Xie Ming and Xie Xinran only burst into laughter after driving the car far away. It was so satisfying to see shamelessness defeat shamelessness.
The father and daughter are staging a family drama about filial impiety, while Xie Nian is also putting on a melodramatic show of loving him and him loving her.
Xu Liyang and his childhood sweetheart got engaged.
As the two grew older, they came to realize their own feelings for each other. In addition, the two families' cooperation deepened, so they decided to arrange an engagement for them first, as a way of telling everyone not to have designs on the two children.
This didn't happen in the previous life, because Xie Nian went back to her biological mother's side when she was in her second year of high school, around the time Xie Ming had just returned.
After moving into the Xu family manor, she didn't rush to appear frequently by Xu Liyang's side. Instead, she flicked her snake tongue at his childhood sweetheart.
Using her connection to the same school, she learned about Xiao Qingmei's background and discovered that she had a fear of water. During a dinner party, she used Xu Liyang's identity to lure Xiao Qingmei to an empty swimming pool, where she pushed her in and drowned her.
After losing his childhood sweetheart, Xu Liyang was overcome with grief and almost committed suicide. His mother tried various methods, but none of them worked.
Later, Xu's mother learned by chance that the housekeeper's niece was Xu Liyang's classmate. Helpless, she asked Xie Nian to take care of and comfort Xu Liyang.
Xie Nian frowned, embarrassed, saying she was afraid people would misunderstand and dared not agree. In the end, Xu's mother promised to send her to study abroad, which made her "reluctantly" agree.
After that, Xie Nian appeared openly by Xu Liyang's side, constantly encouraging him to move forward with his and his childhood sweetheart's ideals.
She was like a ray of light shining into the Xu family. As Xu Liyang gradually came back to life, everyone attributed the credit to Xie Nian.
Later, when they were preparing to take the entrance exams for universities abroad, the Xu family planned to arrange for them to attend the same school.
Xie Nian even argued with Xu's mother about this, saying that Xu Liyang was not her responsibility, that she had already fulfilled her obligations, and that Xu's mother should not interfere with her future path, and that her dream school was another university.
Xie Nian's actions were risky, but at that time, Xu's mother only trusted her with the person in her care. It wasn't until Xu's mother promised that this was the last time and that she would not be disturbed in her life again.
Having succeeded, Xie Nian then tied herself to Xu Liyang in the best possible way.
Xie Ming and Xie Xinran are still alive and well in this life, but Xie Nian can't get close to her biological mother, and her situation at school is also very bad. She doesn't understand why she has become a transparent person.
Almost everyone can completely ignore her existence!
At that moment, Xie Nian clenched the invitation in her hand, feeling as if a raging fire was burning above her head. Xu Liyang was hers; how dare that bitch dare to do that?
Stubbornly holding her breath, she grabbed the invitation and rushed out of the school dormitory.
She hadn't changed out of her school uniform into a formal dress yet, and she didn't want to care anymore.
She didn't care whether there were cars on the roadside heading to the Xu family manor.
All she knew was that she was going to go to the Xu family and kill that bitch, so she wouldn't be seen by Xu Liyang's side anymore.
Sitting on the bus, Xie Nian watched the sky outside gradually darken, her anxiety growing.
When she arrived at the destination, she ran wildly towards the deep grove of trees that she had walked through countless times in her memory.
It was dark and quiet all around, but she wasn't afraid at all. Only one thought echoed in her mind: Faster, faster, faster!
Upon reaching the manor, Xie Nian was stopped by the tightly closed gates. The faint sounds of music and laughter emanating from inside, however, filled her with a sense of unease.
She needs to go in! Now, immediately, right now!
Perhaps heaven heard her call, for a car slowly drove toward the manor from afar. Xie Nian seized the opportunity and slipped inside as soon as the gate opened.
The main banquet hall was magnificent and filled with guests, all dressed in elegant and appropriate formal attire, their faces bearing polite smiles. Even the waiters were dressed in high-end uniforms, moving among the crowd.
Xie Nian looked at her disheveled school uniform and felt lost. She should have changed her clothes before coming; she regretted being too hasty.
Feelings of inferiority and sadness rose from the soles of her feet and slowly spread throughout her entire body.
Seeing that no one around her was even glancing at her, Xie Nian felt her face burning even hotter.
She hid in a secluded corner, pulling hard on her clothes and fixing her hair...
"Ladies and gentlemen!"
A familiar voice rang out, officially kicking off the engagement banquet.
Upon hearing the voice, Xie Nian recognized the person on the other end as a well-known local host. As he spoke eloquently about the past of the golden couple, Xie Nian could no longer contain her jealousy.
As the process progressed, Xu Liyang appeared on the spiral staircase, leading his childhood sweetheart.
Xiao Qingmei wore a purple off-shoulder dress, the skirt studded with crystals, making her look as delicate and beautiful as a porcelain doll.
Looking at Xu Liyang standing beside her, so full of affection, Xie Nian felt a shattering sound in her chest.
That's not true! She should be the one standing in the spotlight.
Xie Nian shook her head frantically.
Unable to contain the overwhelming jealousy, she rushed out of the crowd and charged at Xu Liyang with all her might, until she passed right through his body without any obstruction. She was completely stunned.
Xie Nian slowly turned her head and saw that the person behind her was completely unaware and continued to hold the hand of the person she cherished, and all the guests were applauding the couple with blessing in their eyes, as if she didn't exist at all.
