It turned out that Ruan Xinyue had already fallen in love with Yang Yong after hearing his repeated consolation and comfort. She accepted Yang Xue's advances these days just to piss him off.
She could clearly feel Yang Yong's suppressed feelings for her, but despite her deliberate intimate outings with Yang Xue, Yang Yong never expressed his feelings.
So one night when Madam Yang took her daughter to the temple to worship Buddha and Yang Xue was sent out by her to visit a friend, she put on a thin white shirt and, under the ambiguous moonlight, gently knocked on Yang Yong's door...
Yang Yong, who already had a hard time controlling his emotions, couldn't stand such temptation...
After one night.
As soon as Mrs. Yang, Miss Yang and Mr. Yang returned home, they were gathered together by Yang Yong, who announced in front of everyone that he would take Ruan Xinyue as his concubine. Mrs. Yang fainted on the spot from anger.
Young Master Yang had originally believed that he and Ruan Xinyue were in love, but he had never imagined that he would suffer such a double betrayal that he was driven mad. He rushed forward to grab Ruan Xinyue and demand an explanation. But he had never imagined that his father, who had always loved and respected him, would suddenly become a completely different person. He was extremely indifferent to him and immediately ordered his servants to lock him up in the room and ignore him.
After waking up, Mrs. Yang naturally cried and made a fuss, and wanted to release her imprisoned son. However, Yang Yong was as hard-hearted as iron, and did not care about the previous relationship between husband and wife at all. He even scolded Mrs. Yang for being "jealous and ruining the family" and wanted to divorce her on the spot.
The commotion in the Yang family was so loud that the clan leader was alarmed. With the clan leader's persuasion and mediation, Yang Yong reluctantly did not divorce his wife, and Mrs. Yang was forced to accept the fact that Ruan Xinyue became Yang Yong's concubine.
In this way, Ruan Xinyue entered Yang Yong's house. Yang Yong no longer cared about his wife and children. He just played and had fun with Ruan Xinyue every day and no longer took care of the family business.
Yang Yong's absurd behavior left Young Master Yang devastated. A promising young man, he drowned his sorrows in alcohol, his life on the brink of becoming a cripple. And when Miss Yang reached marriageable age, no one dared to approach her, as no one wanted a disgraceful relative like Yang Yong. Six months later, unable to endure the situation, Mrs. Yang resigned, leaving the Yang family and Yongyu County with her two children. To this day, no one knows the whereabouts of the three.
Yang Yong, far from being saddened by the departure of his wife and children, instead made a grand ceremony to marry Ruan Xinyue the very next day, a move that everyone in Yongyu County despised. After Ruan Xinyue became the wife of the Yang family, she became arrogant and extravagant, and Yang Yong was completely obedient to her. Soon, the Yang family's wealth was completely depleted.
It was only then that Yang Yong finally remembered to properly manage his family business. However, his actions made the merchants in Yongyu County unwilling to do business with him, and the business naturally failed. However, Ruan Xinyue kept asking for money to spend. In desperation, Yang Yong sold his shop and his house until he had nothing left to buy...
Yang Yong optimistically thought that even if he lost all his money, at least he still had his beloved and confidant, Ruan Xinyue, by his side, and that his life would be without regrets. However, he had no idea that when Ruan Xinyue discovered that Yang Yong could no longer afford to support her, she seemed to become a completely different person, cursing and despising him. A few days later, she abandoned him, taking the last of his money and leaving.
When Yang Yong woke up, he found his house empty and his confidante nowhere to be found. He had gone mad. He thought of Xinyue every day and wandered around Yongyu County, trying to flirt with any young woman in white he saw. He was eventually beaten by one of the woman's family members and died on the street from his injuries.
The merchant helped to collect the body. After all, he was once a good friend. Seeing his miserable end, he at least didn't want to leave his body exposed in the wilderness.
When Tunan's story ended here, the atmosphere in the room became dull. The three of them stared at the teacups in front of them quietly for a long time without saying a word.
