Han Yixian heard a young woman call his name and turned around to see Jian Chunhua. His face immediately darkened.
Wasn't Jian Chunhua deliberately trying to cause trouble for the He family by calling out to them at their doorstep, making them unhappy?
It seems the Jian family hasn't given up on those inappropriate thoughts. He made himself so clear that day, yet Jian Chunhua still kept trying to get close to him, as if he thought Jian was easy to talk to.
Jian Chunhua had been thinking about Han Yixian these past few days, and she even cried bitterly after hearing that Han Yixian was going to get engaged to He Yuhan. She was extremely unwilling to accept it.
She had inquired and learned that the He family's youngest daughter had only been found recently and had previously lived with her adoptive parents in the countryside. She refused to believe that she was inferior to a village girl who had grown up in the countryside.
She wanted to see who this He Yuhan was, that she could bewitch such an outstanding man as Han Yixian.
She knew the He family was going to hold an engagement banquet for Han Yixian and He Yuhan, and her father had been invited. But only her father was invited; neither her mother nor she were invited.
She knew the He family was cleaning the house today, Han Yixian had come, and He Yuhan had also come home. She had taken the day off from work because she wanted to see what He Yuhan looked like and also meet Han Yixian.
Han Yixian's image was already imprinted in her heart; how could she forget him so quickly? She was extremely unwilling to give up on Han Yixian just like that.
She's not young anymore, and having missed out on such a suitable candidate as Han Yixian, she doesn't know when she'll meet another suitable one.
Even if you were to meet someone decent, they wouldn't be as outstanding as Han Yixian.
She had been keeping a close eye on the He family's movements, afraid of missing Han Yixian.
After dinner, she wandered around the He family's neighborhood, hoping to bump into Han Yixian.
Han Yi came out first, but he was accompanied by a young woman, who should be He Yuhan.
She watched as He Yuhan exchanged a few words with Han Yixian before entering the courtyard.
If she didn't step forward, Han Yixian would get into the car and leave. She had no choice but to call out to Han Yixian, even if it was just to say a few words to him.
Jian Chunhua had just seen He Yuhan's face under the lamplight. Suddenly, she felt much smaller.
He Yuhan was not only younger than her, but also prettier. Although the lighting was dim and it was difficult to see clearly, it was still evident that He Yuhan was very beautiful and had a great presence. No wonder Han Yixian liked her. What man wouldn't like such a beautiful woman?
However, good looks alone are not enough; one must also have talent.
She believed that, apart from her appearance, she was in no way inferior to He Yuhan. Besides, He Yuhan was quite beautiful herself, so she had to fight for herself.
Jian Chunhua said with deep affection, "Brother Han, my dad has been talking about you a lot. It's been a long time since you've visited our home. My mom said she's going to cook you something delicious. I really liked the gift you gave me last time."
Han Yixian felt a surge of anger upon hearing Jian Chunhua's ambiguous words. Why were there always people who couldn't stand to see him doing well? Why were there always people who wanted to ruin his relationship with Yuhan?
He would never allow anyone to sabotage his relationship with Yuhan again.
Han Yixian's chest heaved violently a few times as he said coldly, "Comrade Jian, please watch your words. Those gifts of mine are for Uncle Jian, not for you. I hope you won't take what I gave to Uncle Jian. Otherwise, I won't dare to give him anything again."
You liked the cigarettes I gave to Uncle Jian. What decent young woman smokes like a man? Unless she's not a decent person.
Also, stay away from me from now on. I promised my fiancée I wouldn't let any other woman near me. Especially not a woman like you who's older and still single. I need to be extra careful to avoid any impropriety, so let's not talk unless absolutely necessary. Anyway, we've only met once, we're not close, so please call me Comrade Han from now on.”
He Yuhan chuckled as she listened to Han Yixian's sarcastic remarks to Jian Chunhua in the courtyard.
Jian Chunhua tried to block Han Yixian's path to build a relationship, but Han Yixian gave her a merciless thrashing.
Han Yixian recognized He Yuhan's voice as soon as he heard the laughter coming from the He family's courtyard; she must have heard everything. He wondered if Yuhan was angry.
Hearing Han Yixian's words, Jian Chunhua, who was already feeling wronged and on the verge of tears, couldn't hold back anymore. When had she ever been scolded like this before? She cried and said incoherently, "Brother Han, I don't smoke. I'm a decent person. I was just happy to see you give my father a gift. I, I, I just wanted to be your friend."
Han Yi snorted and activated his sarcastic tone, saying, "I don't make friends with women other than my fiancée, especially older single women like you. I dare not get involved with you; I'm afraid I'll get stuck and won't be able to get rid of you. So stay away from me from now on."
Jian Chunhua, a young woman, could not bear such a blow. She couldn't stay any longer and ran away crying.
He Yuhan, who was listening to the commotion outside, covered her mouth and laughed in the yard. Han Yixian was really good at hurting people, he didn't give them any face at all.
He Yuhan had also heard her mother mention that the Jian family wanted Han Yixian as their son-in-law, and she also knew that the Jian family's daughter, Jian Chunhua, had not married because her standards for a partner were too high, and now that she was getting older, the whole family was anxious.
This is because they saw that Han Yixian was a person with good conditions in all aspects and wanted to snatch him away.
Hmph, don't they even know who Han Yixian is? Do they think the Jian family can control him?
It seems Jian Chunhua doesn't want to give up. Does she think she's blind?
However, Han Yixian took care of it before she could even make a move today, which was quite satisfying.
Han Yixian quickly entered the He family's courtyard and saw He Yuhan standing not far from the gate.
Although He Yuhan didn't seem angry, he was still nervous and worried that she might misunderstand, so he quickly explained, "Yuhan, don't misunderstand. Last time I visited the Jian family, I gave Uncle Jian some tea and cigarettes, but I didn't give his daughter a gift."
He Yuhan smiled and said, "I know about what happened last time. My mom told me. You even went to my dad to report it, just so I wouldn't misunderstand. Don't worry, I won't misunderstand. I believe you."
Ignoring the fact that they were outside, Han Yixian grabbed He Yuhan's hand and said, "Thank you for believing in me, Yuhan. No matter how outstanding other women are, they can't catch my eye. You're the only one in my eyes and heart. There's no room for anyone else."
He Yuhan said, "I believe you. To be honest, with your qualities, you're a perfect catch in other people's eyes. How could you not be coveted? Jian Chunhua is obviously a hypocrite, with high aspirations and high standards. It's her own fault that she can't get married."
I don't care if she's eyeing other people, but she can't be eyeing you. Stay away from her from now on; people like that are like leeches that you can't shake off once you get on them.
