Chen Shuning's words caused quite a stir.
Yang Wanqiu stared at Chen Shuning in disbelief. She never dreamed that Chen Shuning, who was always taciturn and dared not express her feelings, would admit in front of so many people that He Chaoyang was her boyfriend.
If Chen Shuning had dared to be so bold back then, she wouldn't have had the chance to sow discord behind the scenes, and Shen Hongmei wouldn't have had a chance at all.
Actually, Dong Weiguo liked Chen Shuning at first, but Chen Shuning didn't dare to express it, plus she also liked Dong Weiguo at that time.
So some minor conflicts were created between the two, which eventually led to the two, who were originally on good terms, drifting apart and eventually reaching the point where they didn't even dare to speak to each other at school.
So when Chen Shuning revealed that He Chaoyang was her boyfriend, the most shocked person was not He Chaoyang, one of the parties involved, but Yang Wanqiu.
Moreover, the boyfriend Chen Shuning mentioned was the one she had been longing for but could not have, which Yang Wanqiu, who always felt that she was better than Chen Shuning in every way, could not stand.
She no longer cared about maintaining a gentle image in front of He Chaoyang, and shouted in a sharp voice, "Impossible! You've only known each other for a few days, how could he be your boyfriend?"
Chen Shuning was truly fed up with Yang Wanqiu, who was always watching her whether there was anything to do or not.
Chen Shuning realized that she had indeed been a bit impulsive in saying that He Chaoyang was her boyfriend.
Although she could guess He Chaoyang's feelings for her, he hadn't said it outright. If she misunderstood, wouldn't she lose face big time?
So Chen Shuning regretted it as soon as she said it. After secretly observing He Chaoyang's reaction, she saw that he didn't seem angry or want to expose her, and then she felt relieved.
Hearing Yang Wanqiu's exasperated tone, Chen Shuning felt quite comforted. He suddenly found it rather amusing that Yang Wanqiu would come to him all the time to make her presence known, and then get tormented by him.
So he said slowly, "Even if you haven't known each other for very long, it's still longer than you've known Shen Wenge. Besides, Brother He and my brother are classmates, so they know each other quite well. Unlike you, Yang Wanqiu, do you think the Shen family knows about your family situation?"
Yang Wanqiu already resented that her family had dragged her down; otherwise, she wouldn't have envied Chen Shuning so much.
So whenever someone mentions her home, Yang Wanqiu reacts like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, instantly bristling with anger.
"Chen Shuning, how could you be so vicious? We grew up together since we were little, and I've always considered you my best friend. You just throw away our friendship of over ten years because of my parents' situation."
Now that I've finally found someone who treats me well, are you going to sabotage it? Can't stand to see me doing well?
Chen Shuning was so angry at Yang Wanqiu's words that she laughed. She actually admired Yang Wanqiu's shamelessness to some extent.
She probably could never learn this skill of blatantly twisting the truth, while others do it effortlessly without even blushing.
He turned his head and looked at Yang Wanqiu, who had a wronged expression on her face and tears welling up in her eyes, but couldn't fall.
Then, seeing the shadows of people over the roof of the old house, and quite a few of them, Chen Shuning said with a pitiful expression.
"Yang Wanqiu, how can you twist the truth like this? Brother He and I were just cooking at home, and you came up to us like a clown and said those nasty things. How can you turn around and say that I can't stand to see you doing well?"
I know you're upset because of your mother's status as a capitalist's daughter and your father's extramarital affair with the factory accountant, but you can't be so jealous of others just because your own family isn't happy.
Yang Wanqiu, your thinking is very dangerous.
As expected, Yang Wanqiu's face turned deathly pale. He continued, infuriatingly, "Wanqiu, I know it's hard for you to accept the blow from this sudden change in your family, but it's already happened, so you have to try to think positively."
At least you still have money. Not to mention the box of gold bars your mother left you, the three thousand yuan savings account she left you is enough for you to live on for a while. Also, with your father's accident, all the family's money has fallen into your hands.
Your dad was a workshop director for so many years. Not to mention his salary, the 2,320 yuan of public funds that your stepmother embezzled when she was an accountant is still supposedly still missing.
Wanqiu, no matter what, you are your father's only biological daughter. You're the only one who will leave all this money to you.
Wanqiu, listen to my advice. Although family ties are important, there are many things you can't undo. With this money in your hands, your future won't be too difficult.
So you should try to think more positively.
After saying that, she ignored Yang Wanqiu, since she had already said what she wanted to say.
Pointing to the sliced pork belly on the cutting board, Chen Shuning said to He Chaoyang with a hint of guilt, "Brother He, blanch that meat for a bit, we'll make braised pork later."
Looking at the little girl who didn't even dare to look at him, He Chaoyang found it amusing, but also felt that such a little girl was really too lovable.
However, there were still outsiders present, so He Chaoyang didn't want to tease her. He simply smiled and agreed, then quickly began to blanch the meat.
If it were the old Chen Shuning, he would have valued their friendship of more than ten years and would not have revealed Yang Wanqiu's family background.
Yang Wanqiu's arrogance in bullying Chen Shuning stemmed solely from this.
