Yan Yan just kept crying.
Su Xueli whispered to Shao Jiang, "She's drunk and can't make any decisions right now. Let's wait until she sobers up."
Shao Jiang was so angry that he let out a long sigh and said, "I'm so damn angry, I wish I could make Yan Yan cut off all ties with them right now."
Yan Yan leaned softly against Shao Jiang's shoulder, sobbing as she spoke. Her voice grew softer and softer until she fell silent. Somehow, her arms wrapped around Shao Jiang's neck.
Shao Jiang looked at Su Xueli with a blank expression, "Yan Yan, she..."
Su Xueli said calmly, "She's asleep."
Shao Jiang quietly lowered his head and turned her face to look at her. He looked at Su Xueli and said in a hoarse voice, "She's really asleep. Then... what should we do?"
He's a complete novice when it comes to girls.
Su Xueli shrugged: "She's asleep, what do you suggest we do?"
Shao Jiang asked, bewildered, "Then, can I put her in my bed to sleep?"
Su Xueli retorted, "Are you going to send her to her house?"
Shao Jiang said "Oh," looked at Yan Yan who was leaning on his shoulder, then at Su Xue Li, and wanted to ask a question but then closed his mouth. He gently picked up Yan Yan and put her on the bed behind him.
He took off her shoes, covered her with a blanket, and handled her with utmost care and gentleness, as if Yan Yan were made of glass.
He was covered in sweat after finishing all of this.
Su Xueli was very satisfied with his series of actions and performance: it showed that this young man was extremely nervous because it was his first time meeting a girl.
Shao Jiang wiped his sweat, sat down, and began cursing Yan Yan's parents through gritted teeth. He said firmly, "When Yan Yan wakes up, I will definitely take her to my house to find my mother and make her sever ties with her heartless parents. She will live in my house and be my sister."
Su Xueli said, "It also depends on whether her boyfriend is willing. She's getting married in a few months."
"Oh, what... her boyfriend. Oh right, how could I forget that? At her age, according to the customs of us rural people, she should have been engaged long ago. So... where is her boyfriend from, and what's his name?"
“You know his girlfriend too, it’s Cui Huabiao who works at the grain depot,” Wei Mingshen said with a look of disdain.
"Damn, that guy is Yan Yan's boyfriend!" Shao Jiang was so excited that he dropped his chopsticks.
After throwing the chopsticks, he nervously looked back at Yan Yan. Seeing that he hadn't woken her up, he bent down to pick them up, rinsed them with water, and put them on the table. Then he whispered to Su Xueli, complaining about Cui Huabiao.
"That short, ugly fellow, Gu Shupi, isn't even worthy of carrying Yanyan's shoes. He's not even as good as Wu Dalang. Wu Dalang was only ugly on the outside, but his heart was just as ugly as his body. He was a sycophant, always flattering the powerful and belittling the weak. In reality, he was just a wagging-tail dog..."
Su Xueli thought to herself: You're absolutely right. I'll drop another bombshell on you.
She then told him about how Cui Huabiao had coaxed Yan Yan to accompany Secretary Zhang of the town before the Lunar New Year so that she could be successfully transferred to work in the town.
This time, not only Shao Jiang was angry, but Wei Mingshen also swore.
Su Xueli shook her head and sighed, "Xueli is also heartbroken and wants to break off the engagement with him, but she is ultimately isolated and helpless. There is pressure from her parents, the world's judgment, and Cui Huabiao has come to apologize to her again. She is hesitating."
Shao Jiang's eyes reddened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm determined to take care of Yan Yan's matter. I won't allow her to be exploited by her parents anymore, nor will I let her marry that scumbag."
Su Xueli looked at Shao Jiang seriously and said, "Yan Yan is my best friend, and of course I don't want her to jump into a fire pit, but do you have a way to get them to break off the engagement?"
Shao Jiang grinned, a cold glint in his eyes: "Solutions are devised by people."
