Chapter 121: Neither Side Is Good
"Xiao Wan, go back to the house first."
Kang Zhimiao winked at Xu Wan, who glared at Xu Xun fiercely and ran back to her room.
"Old Xu, you'll only push her away."
Kang Zhimiao poured Xu Xun a cup of tea and said, "Calm down yourself. I'll go see Xiaowan."
Xu Wan returned to her room and cried bitterly. She found the previous class photo and stroked Chen Can with her fingers over and over again: "A Can."
"Xiao Wan?"
Kang Zhimiao knocked twice and then came in. Xu Wan grabbed the book on the bedside table and threw it over: "Who let you in?"
"Xiao Wan, I came to see you."
"I don't need you to watch. Just go!"
"Xiao Wan, I will help persuade your elder brother."
Kang Zhimiao bent down to pick up the book on the ground and put it back on the table. She patted Xu Wan gently and said, "If you can always like Chen Can, then he must be right."
"Your elder brother was angry because he heard other people gossiping about him."
"Chen Can has a family. Besides, the time when he approached you made us suspicious."
"Xiao Wan, a girl's reputation is the most important thing. I know you don't care, but as your family, we can't help but care."
"Listen to my sister-in-law's advice. If you really want to be with Chen Can, then be patient and see if he is sincere or not."
Xu Wan said without hesitation: "Of course he is sincere!"
"Xiao Wan, it's one thing for you to believe him, but it's another thing for him to think about it. Don't you want to know whether he really wants to be with you or is just trying to get a promotion?"
Kang Zhimiao looked into Xu Wan's eyes, and Xu Wan fell into a dilemma.
Seeing that she was wavering, Kang Zhimiao immediately added fuel to the fire: "Xiao Wan, this is a matter of your life. We are not afraid that he has ulterior motives, but we are afraid that he will betray you."
Xu Wan frowned: "Sister-in-law, how can I know whether he really wants to be with me or just for promotion?"
"It depends on whether he will divorce for you. I know he will definitely say that he will divorce, but you can't just listen to what a man says. You have to see if he can do it. It's so easy to say. Who doesn't know how to say nice things, right?"
"If he really gets divorced, then he has you in his heart."
"Xiao Wan, as long as he has you in his heart, everyone in the family hopes that you will be happy, do you understand?"
Kang Zhimiao spoke well of Xu Xun: "Your elder brother has loved you the most since you were a child. He is so angry because he is afraid that Chen Can will let you down and make you sad."
"But he hit me." Xu Wan touched her face, still angry: "He hit me so hard."
"Xiao Wan, your attitude just now was not good either."
Kang Zhimiao stood up and said, "I'll go and boil you an egg. You can apply it on the wound."
Xu Wan held Kang Zhimiao's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, give me some more brown sugar water. I have a stomachache."
"Come for that?"
Xu Wan nodded. She didn't dare tell her family that she had eaten shaved ice with Chen Can, for fear that it would make her family have a worse impression of Chen Can.
"Wait, I'll be here soon."
Kang Zhimiao left Xu Wan's room and as soon as she went downstairs, Xu Xun looked at her anxiously. Kang Zhimiao waved at him and they went into the kitchen together.
"I have persuaded Xiaowan not to have much contact with Chen Can recently."
"I told her to see if Chen Can would divorce before deciding. This would be better for Xiao Wan's reputation."
Xu Xun waved his hands vigorously: "No! Even if Chen Can gets divorced, Xiao Wan can't be with him."
"I strongly disagree with what they are doing."
"If you don't agree, Xiaowan will stop liking Chen Can? You don't understand your sister's personality. She is stubborn."
Kang Zhimiao advised Xu Xun: "Old Xu, we can't keep this daughter. If we keep her, we will end up with an enemy."
"Xiao Wan just likes Chen Can. If you don't agree, who knows what she will do. It's better to just go along with her."
"You are now..."
Before Kang Zhimiao finished speaking, Xu Xun interrupted her angrily: "Kang Zhimiao, you are saying this lightly. Xiaowan is not your biological sister. You can't just stand and talk without any pain in your waist."
"If one day Zhixin also falls in love with a married man, I wonder if you will still say that it is better to just go along with her."
"Old Xu, I was trying to persuade you and coax Xiao Wan, but it ended up being a mess, right? She threw a book at me, and you were pointing your finger at me and scolding me."
Kang Zhimiao was so angry that her face turned pale: "Okay, you siblings can do whatever you want, I am meddling in your business, you are a family, I am an outsider."
"Xiao Wan has a stomachache. She wants to drink brown sugar water and apply a boiled egg on her face. You can do that for her."
After saying that, Kang Zhimiao put the pot aside, turned around and was about to leave.
Xu Xun quickly grabbed her arm and apologized softly: "Okay, okay, I was the one who said the wrong thing, don't be angry."
"I don't know how to do these things. You have to do it."
Pushing Kang Zhimiao to the stove, Xu Xun continued to talk about Xu Wan: "What you said does make some sense, but the problem is that even if Chen Can is divorced, he is a second marriage with a child. Xiaowan is a virgin, so what a loss."
"I still say the same thing. Xiaowan only likes Chen Can and wants to hang herself on him. What can you do?"
"It's not like you guys haven't arranged other blind dates for her before, but what happened? She didn't like any of them. She only had Chen Can in her mind."
"She doesn't mind Chen Can being married for the second time, or having a child. She just wants to be with him."
"If you don't agree, then either Xiaowan breaks off her relationship with you and insists on being with Chen Can, or she listens to you but doesn't get married and becomes an old maid."
Kang Zhimiao's words were unpleasant to hear, but they made sense.
Xu Xun knew Xu Wan's personality very well, and she might really do the two things Kang Zhimiao mentioned.
Feeling extremely helpless, Xu Xun grabbed his hair hard and said, "This is so fucking frustrating!"
"Old Xu, Chen Can's family background is not bad. They are all from big compounds, so we know him well. He is much better than the ones you found for Xiao Wan."
"He will have to rely on our Xu family in the future, so he will have to treat Xiaowan well. Xiaowan can't stand being wronged."
Kang Zhimiao's words touched Xu Xun's heart. He just needed to find a suitable reason to accept Chen Can.
"If he can really treat Xiaowan well, I won't mind those details."
"As long as he can get a divorce and be with Xiaowan, he will be a member of my Xu family. Dad, my second uncle and I will support him."
"But if he dares to treat Xiao Wan as a fool, then he will never be able to survive in the future! He is not like the kid from the Yue family. Even without General Yue's protection, his own abilities are not to be underestimated by others!"
At the same time, Chen Can changed his clothes and came to an alley.
After touching Xu Wan, he felt uncomfortable and needed to vent.
