Chapter 304: Pain I Don't Want to Mention
As soon as Zhou Zhi finished speaking, the air around them seemed to freeze in an instant. The pen in Yin Dong's hand was still "tapping" against the marble table, but Yin Dong did not give any response for a long time.
Zhou Zhi felt a sinking feeling in his heart, thinking that something was wrong and he had made some trouble.
"Get out."
His anxiety was broken by Yin Dong's words.
Yin Dong's tone was as calm as boiled water, without any anger in it, but Zhou Zhi had been with him for so many years and knew him very well. Given his current situation, the calmer he was, the more abnormal it seemed.
Zhou Zhi actually hoped that he would lose his temper like he did a while ago. It was better than being half-dead like now, suppressing all his emotions in his heart.
Zhou Zhi sighed in his heart and turned to leave the office.
Jiang Yuan suddenly returned home, and her mother Yang Xue was naturally very surprised. The mother and daughter happily had a reunion dinner.
Jiang Yuan: "Mom, no one has come to cause trouble recently, right?"
Yang Xue rarely smiled. "No, my family has been very peaceful lately. Since the Chinese New Year, the neighbors have come to help with the business, and the store is doing much better than before. I saved some money. Take it with you when you leave and give some back to Yin Dong first."
Jiang Yuan stood up and lowered her head to clear the table while saying, "Don't worry about the money, keep it for yourself."
"Of course you're not in a hurry. Two million is no small sum. Even though you two are in a relationship, we still have to pay him back as soon as possible. Otherwise, you'll always be in his debt and will naturally feel inferior to him. Pay him back some first. At least it will show him our family's attitude. You're not following him for his money."
Jiang Yuan lowered his head and replied calmly, "Yeah."
She turned and went to the kitchen with the plate.
Yang Xue looked at her and asked worriedly, "How have you two been lately? Did you have a fight?"
Jiang Yuan stood in front of the kitchen faucet, her back to her mother. After a few seconds of silence, she said, "We've broken up."
Yang Xue was stunned for a long time, then slowly walked into the kitchen. "How did they split it up? Wasn't everything fine during the Chinese New Year? Did his family disagree?"
Jiang Yuan didn't know where to start. The wound in her heart that she had deliberately forgotten seemed to be pierced. She didn't want to touch it, but she couldn't avoid it.
"Well, after thinking about it, I think we should break up soon. I've changed jobs and no longer work for his company. The new job is not bad either, I earn tens of thousands of dollars a month, and my colleagues are all very friendly."
"Mom, don't mention him anymore. It's all in the past."
Yang Xue looked at her slender back as she refused to turn around, feeling distressed.
Her own daughter knows her best. During the Chinese New Year, Yin Dong came to her house and the two were very close. She could see clearly how much Jiang Yuan cared about Yin Dong. But now they broke up just like that, and even changed jobs. She was not even allowed to mention it. She could feel that Jiang Yuan was still hurt.
"Okay, it's all in the past. Mom just doesn't want you to feel bad. Look how much thinner you've become since you came back this time..."
Yang Xue suppressed her sobs and stopped talking. "No matter what, Yin Dong has helped our family and is our benefactor. Even if his family dislikes us, you shouldn't hate them. Parents are all thinking about their children. It's understandable. Okay, it's okay to break up. Find a more suitable boy in the future and get along well with the goal of getting married."
Water was flowing from the faucet. Jiang Yuan lowered his head and said "hmm" softly.
