Yan Yan lowered her head and said, "His character isn't great, but we've been engaged for five or six years..."
"I can't accept a scumbag even if we're engaged for a hundred years. If you keep crying and whining, we're breaking up. I can't bear the shame of being sisters with such a worthless person!" Su Xueli was truly angry.
Yan Yan stopped crying after being scolded, wiped away her tears, and comforted Su Xueli: "Okay, okay, don't be angry. It was too sudden, and I can't accept it right away."
Moreover, and most importantly, I felt ashamed, and the way my parents scolded me was awful; it felt like being stabbed in the heart.
Su Xueli sighed and said, "I can understand that. How about this, you move in with me. You won't have to put up with your parents' temper, and it will save my parents from worrying about me. My mother even comes over to stay with me at night."
Yan Yan looked up and around the spacious courtyard, which had several rooms. She asked excitedly, "Xue Li, is it really okay?"
Su Xueli asked, "Why not?"
Yan Yan said excitedly, "I can't stand living in my family anymore. My dad says I'm a disgrace, and my mom says I'm a jinx. I've made them both ashamed to go out. They scold me for not being able to keep a man. What's the point of me living? I might as well hang myself at their house... Xue Li, I think if this continues, I really will hang myself."
Su Xueli stroked her braid tenderly and said, "Yanyan, move in right away. Go back and pack your things today. It'll be convenient to go to the market if you stay here."
Yan Yan cried again, choking back tears as she said, "Xue Li, you're such a lifesaver. I'm going home to move my things right now; I don't want to stay in that house any longer."
After Yan Yan left, Wei Mingshen came over. He was very happy to hear that she was going to stay here. "That's good. With her staying here, your mother won't come anymore, and I won't have to worry about her. Also, it provides an opportunity for Shao Jiang."
Su Xueli said, "Yes, we can have Shao Jiang come here to see her, and the two of them can develop their relationship."
Wei Mingshen looked at the half-finished figurine in her hand: "Hurry up and finish it, your crush is coming to pick you up."
Su Xueli glanced at her watch and said, "No, it's still early, but I need to hurry up and finish writing."
After saying that, he looked at him and declared, "His name is He Yujie, he has a name."
Wei Mingshen picked up the scissors and said, "Okay, okay, he has a name."
Then she added, "I was wrong. He's no longer your secret admirer, he's your pursuer. Look, he's invited you to his birthday party."
Su Xueli looked at him defiantly and said, "I'm divorced and he's unmarried. We're both single, so it's normal for him to pursue me."
Wei Mingshen shrugged: "I didn't say it was abnormal."
Su Xueli was speechless; he hadn't said anything was wrong.
The two fell silent for a moment, the only sound being the noise from their work.
Su Xueli suddenly asked Wei Mingshen, "By the way, didn't you go to see Lin Meizhi again? She must be waiting anxiously for you to come to her."
Wei Mingshen paused in his grip on the scissors: he had promised to go to the store to find her.
But when he thought about her behavior that night, his heart felt like it was stuffed with straw.
Su Xueli didn't hear his response, so she asked again, "What's wrong? Tell me why you didn't go to see her. I'm curious."
Wei Mingshen stopped what he was doing, looked at her seriously, and said, "I simply don't want to see her."
Su Xueli shook her head: "Then I don't understand. We're divorced. Shouldn't you rush into her arms like a swallow returning to its nest?"
Wei Mingshen said, "I used to think the same way, but now that it's really come to this, I don't feel anything at all. Do you think I don't love her anymore?"
Su Xueli stared at him intently, then turned her eyes to the window and said, "That's impossible. Maybe you just didn't realize it at first."
What do you mean by "didn't react in time"?
Su Xueli snapped out of her daze, tossed her hair, and said, "I just said it casually; I have no experience with this."
Wei Mingshen fell silent again.
"Okay, see if it's pretty!" Su Xueli showed the pair of little figures she had made to Wei Mingshen.
