"What is she jealous of me for? Just because I'm prettier? She's jealous of me for that, and that's why she's making trouble for me. Do you think that's reasonable?"
Song Lan smiled, clearly not taking Qin Yaxin's words to heart. She continued, "From Comrade Han's perspective, I am her sister-in-law!"
They're not rivals in love, why are you so jealous?
“Sister-in-law, some people are just inherently unreasonable. You can’t use your own values to judge everyone as being like you. If that woman surnamed Han wasn’t jealous that you’re prettier than her, why would she want to make things difficult for you? Have you offended her?”
Hearing Qin Yaxin say this, Song Lan shook her head: "I have not offended the other party."
"Then let's not settle it. It must be what I said. She's just jealous of your good looks, so she doesn't like you and is making things difficult for you!"
The more Qin Yaxin talked, the more she felt that what she said made sense, and she even nodded seriously to show that she was definitely not wrong.
“I agree with what Sister Yaxin said.”
Song Guoqing's voice rang out: "Sister, you look like a fairy. It's hard for those narrow-minded women not to be jealous."
"That's right."
Qin Yaxin agreed, and then said, "This jealousy undoubtedly caused her to lose her composure, and she immediately started thinking about seeking balance."
"But where does she find this balance? Without a doubt, she finds it in the people she is jealous of. Under this psychological influence, it is natural for her to attack them with words."
This is Song Guoqing's voice.
"You two are quite well-coordinated, singing in unison!"
Song Lan burst out laughing.
"I don't think I said anything wrong."
Qin Yaxin uttered a sentence.
"I'm just stating a fact."
As Qin Yaxin finished speaking, Song Guoqing began to speak.
"You little devils! Alright, all of you, focus on your studies. Don't try to guess what's going on in adults' affairs." Song Lan shook her head with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, I'm not a child anymore. You know I'm already sixteen, and I'll be seventeen soon. I'll be an adult soon!"
Qin Yaxin was a little unconvinced.
"I'm not a child, sis. Don't describe me as 'precocious and childish.' It makes me sound like I'm just a little kid, which is kind of embarrassing."
Song Guoqing's cheeks were flushed, and his gaze toward Song Lan carried a hint of grievance.
Upon meeting his gaze, Song Lan couldn't help but burst out laughing. She said, "Don't be silly. You're a boy. That kind of expression doesn't suit you."
Before Song Guoqing could react, Qin Yaxin looked at him and burst out laughing: "Haha... Guoqing, you look like a little wife, haha..."
Upon hearing this, Song Guoqing's cheeks turned bright red, and even his neck and ears became noticeably red. Seeing this, Qin Yaxin laughed even louder.
"Sister Yaxin, can you please stop laughing? I'm a guy, not some little wife!"
Song Guoqing looked at Qin Yaxin with resentment and said, "If you keep laughing, it will distract you. If you accidentally ride into a ditch, what will you do then?"
She was still laughing non-stop when, unexpectedly, Qin Yaxin suddenly exclaimed, "Ah!"
Be careful!
Song Lan gave him a helpless warning.
"It was my brother Guoqing who cursed me!" Qin Yaxin puffed out her cheeks and glared at Song Guoqing, saying, "It's all your fault, I almost fell to the ground along with the car."
The dirt road was uneven, and she was just a little careless when the front wheel landed on a clod of dirt the size of an adult's fist, causing the bike to lose its balance instantly. Fortunately, she managed to brace herself with her feet, and luckily she was riding a women's frameless bicycle, otherwise she would definitely have fallen and scratched it!
After all, a 28-inch bicycle is not something a small woman like her can easily handle.
"Sister Yaxin, don't wrong me. I was just trying to remind you. There was no cursing you."
Song Guoqing was very serious; he didn't want to take the blame.
Song Lan ignored Qin Yaxin and Song Guoqing and asked Song Qingbin, "Have you been in contact with Comrade Han recently?"
"No."
Song Qingbin shook his head.
"What about her family?"
Song Lan asked again.
"Uncle Han is my boss. He has invited me to his house for meals quite a few times, but I have always made excuses to refuse... Do you think my behavior is impolite?"
Song Qingbin glanced at Song Lan, and upon hearing this, Song Lan replied without hesitation, "If your excuse is reasonable and does not disrespect the other party, then there is naturally nothing impolite about it."
"To be honest, Uncle Han and Aunt Han are nice people, and they have always been very good to me. But since I have made up my mind to break off the engagement, I was thinking... I was thinking of gradually keeping my distance from their family, so that if Uncle Han and Aunt Han say a few words, I won't be able to resist my soft heart and the matter will be over again."
With a sigh, Song Qingbin continued, "I actually feel quite sorry for the two elders. During the time I spent with Han Bailan, Uncle Han and his wife truly treated me like their own child!"
"Marriage is a lifelong commitment. You can't just marry their daughter into your family and suffer unhappiness after marriage just because they treat you well."
Song Lan comforted them, saying, "I think they know what kind of person their own child is. If we have a valid reason for breaking off the engagement, they might feel regret, but they certainly won't blame you!"
"Let's not talk about me, let's talk about you."
Song Qingbin changed the subject.
What do I have to say?
Song Lan smiled and said, "I'm either at work or at home. My life is regular and simple, and nothing strange has happened."
How is your brother-in-law treating you?
Song Qingbin asked.
Upon hearing this, Song Lan first glanced at Qin Yaxin, then responded to Song Qingbin: "Brother, how am I supposed to answer that question?" Her tone was tinged with amusement: "Yaxin is riding her bike right next to us, and you're asking me how Qin Yanzheng treats me? How could I possibly say he's bad?"
“Sister-in-law, please tell me. I promise I won’t tell my brother.”
Qin Yaxin chuckled, her gossip practically written all over her face.
Song Qingbin was undoubtedly embarrassed at this moment. He had forgotten about Qin Yaxin; otherwise, he would never have asked that question in front of her.
Imagine this: someone's sister is right in front of him, and he asks his own sister if her husband treats her well. What could be more embarrassing than that?
Needless to say, the "family" in Song Qingbin's mind undoubtedly refers to Qin Yanzheng.
Noticing Song Qingbin's unease, Qin Yaxin said with a smile, "Brother Song, you don't need to feel embarrassed. In our family, I'm on my sister-in-law's side. As for my brother, he's not as important to me as my sister-in-law!"
If your older brother hears what you said, he'll definitely feel hurt.
Song Lan smiled helplessly, then said to Song Qingbin, "Brother, do you think your brother-in-law would treat a girl as good as me badly?"
Before Song Qingbin could respond, Qin Yaxin and Song Guoqing burst out laughing.
"What? Did I say something wrong?"
