But Nianxue still has to live here!
She had also lived in the countryside and knew the power of gossip.
Therefore, to prevent any unpleasant rumors from spreading in the village.
She decided to strike first and seize the moral high ground.
Even if people bring it up later, it will only be Su Jianguo's fault.
She explained the matter in just a few words, and the villagers sighed with emotion after hearing it.
Nianxue is such a pitiful girl.
How did she end up with such an unreliable father? Isn't he ruining her life?
Su Nianxue glanced at them and strode away.
Soon the group returned to the Gu family home.
Looking at this familiar house, her heart finally felt at peace.
She turned around and looked at the two people behind her. "You should leave too. I really don't have time to entertain you."
The two men were speechless; she was practically telling them to leave!
"Sister, are you trying to send us away?"
"But didn't you say this morning that we could stay at your house for a few days?" Lin Xiaoxue asked with her big, bewildered eyes, not knowing what had happened.
Lin Tiancheng quickly shook his head at her, signaling her not to speak.
Han Jingru felt a sharp pang of sadness in her heart. "Nianxue, I'm so sorry. If only I had known..."
"How many 'know-before's' can there be in this world?"
People who say these things are just trying to put their minds at ease afterward.
Strictly speaking, you and him are about the same.
"Who is more noble than whom?" Su Nianxue said coldly without turning around.
She felt more exhausted than ever before after making this trip today.
Watching the two of them bickering and shifting blame, she suddenly realized that family ties are really just that—nothing special.
Both of them had their own stance and felt they were innocent.
Moreover, they all felt that they had their own unavoidable difficulties.
But no one has ever truly considered things from her perspective.
“Yes, we are all equally despicable. Nianxue, Mom was wrong, I apologize to you.” Han Jingru burst into tears again.
She's right, she's no different from Su Jianguo!
"There's nothing to apologize for?"
So many years have passed, I've long forgotten about these things.
Today, my relationship with Su Jianguo and his daughter has come to an end. So, for the sake of fairness, let's also end our mother-daughter relationship here!
From now on, I am just myself, no longer anyone's daughter.
"No, Nianxue, I disagree! You can scold me, but you can't deny me." Han Jingru stepped forward and tried to take her wrist.
Su Nianxue suddenly took two steps back, keeping a distance from her, as if she were some kind of monstrous flood.
Seeing her resistance, Han Jingru had no choice but to give up. "Alright! Since you don't want to see me, we'll be leaving now."
"Wait a minute."
“Nianxue…” A glint of light flashed in her eyes.
"Take all these things with you, we don't need anything." She said, pointing to the pile on the table, which she hadn't yet put away.
Han Jingru and her family of three did not move.
Su Nianxue called out to Gu Yanliu, "Yanliu, help them pack their things into bags."
Then...send them out.
After saying that, she walked straight into the room and slammed the door shut in front of them.
"Oh, okay." Gu Yanliu paused for a moment, then followed her instructions and stuffed all the items into their bags.
She looked at the family of three and said, "Let's go, I'll see you out."
"Sister Yanliu..." The little girl looked at Gu Yanliu with some reluctance.
She didn't understand why her sister had been talking to her happily while they were eating.
Why did your attitude change so drastically after you went out for a while?
Lin Tiancheng took her small hand, sighed softly, and said to Han Jingru, "Let's go, let her calm down."
Han Jingru turned around, glanced at the closed door, sniffed, and then followed them.
Su Nianxue stayed in the house with the child for the entire afternoon.
She only went out in the evening, ate a small bowl of rice, and then closed the door again.
Gu Yanliu was full of doubts and wanted to ask what exactly had happened at the Su family.
But seeing that her sister-in-law didn't want to talk about it, she had no choice but to keep quiet.
The next day, Su Nianxue had just finished lunch and was dozing off when she felt someone walking towards the house.
She opened her blurry eyes and saw a tall figure sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Gu Yanbai, why are you back?"
"By the way, when did you get back? I didn't hear you." She rubbed her eyes and tried to sit up.
"We just arrived. Sleep a little longer, I'll sleep with you." The man pulled her back down to lie down.
She snuggled closer to him, "Gu Yanbai, you smoked! You smell strongly of smoke!"
"Tsk tsk, your nostrils are almost as big as a police dog's now."
"Get lost, you dare call me a dog? Well, you do smell like smoke." She gave him a light pinch on the waist.
"It seems I was being conservative with my words just now."
"Your nose isn't just as good as a dog's, it's even better than a dog's!" He raised his arm and sniffed it, but there was no smell.
I wonder where she smelled it from?
"I knew I smelled, so I washed up before coming in. How could you smell that?" Gu Yanbai was speechless.
"Oh, so now you know how to fool me?" She pretended to sit up, looking at his face with a serious expression.
