Xiang Nanzhi patted her back, his eyes also a little moist, "It's okay, it's okay."
Jiang Yao's mother passed away early, and her father didn't care much about her, which was already heartbreaking. Then Song Ze abandoned her at this time. Actually, it wasn't Jiang Yao's fault in the end.
"It's okay, don't cry, don't cry."
Jiang Yao cried for a long time, then took her medicine and fell into a deep sleep. Ma Xiaorong said unhappily, "Why didn't you cry then? Weren't you very arrogant? The last time we met, she said those things to you. Now she's changed her tune all of a sudden. She's really something. Anyone who didn't know better would think she studied opera."
When Xiang Nan heard Ma Xiaorong say that, she glanced at her and said, "Don't talk to her like that next time. I know you're straightforward and say what you think, but she's quite sensitive."
"She's so sensitive, she's just making a fuss. You've been so good to her, and she still turns against you for another man. Why didn't you do this sooner? Now you're saying 'I was wrong, I was wrong,' but what's the use?"
"This kind of thing is just like a man cheating; once it happens, it will happen again."
"Xiaorong, why do you think so badly of people? Can't people admit their mistakes and correct them?"
"Admitting mistakes and correcting them... sounds nice, but many people are simply forced into a situation where they have no other choice. So they choose one with a relatively good reputation. Because they made mistakes in the past, it becomes a positive term in the eyes of others. Admitting mistakes and correcting them sounds so good."
Xiang Nanzhi: ...
"Anyway, don't say those things in front of her anymore."
"You really intend to forgive her?"
Xiang Nanzhi walked a few steps downstairs. "Was I harsh and a bit unreasonable before?"
Ma Xiaorong sighed, "You're just as straightforward as me, I don't think it's a big problem."
"Even minor flaws are unacceptable; this is wrong and needs to be corrected."
Xiang Nanzhi walked in front, with Ma Xiaorong behind her.
She's like a completely different person since she came back from Saigon. Before, she was always making a fuss about having an abortion and causing all sorts of trouble, but now she's stopped and is living a peaceful life, taking care of her pregnancy, and occasionally going to Shen Shixun's place.
People used to have some sharp edges, but now their tempers have become better.
"Nanzhi, don't be a pushover, that's not good."
"I saw a book in my dad's study the day before yesterday. It said that you can't see your own shortcomings. If you want to correct your bad habits, you have to learn to accept things you don't like and spend time with people you don't like. You'll gain some experience and learn to be more open-minded..."
"You don't go and save all living beings."
"But I want to become a better version of myself."
"Miss, the master asked me to make bird's nest soup for you."
Is there anything else?
"There's one more thing."
"Take it upstairs to Miss Jiang."
Ma Xiaorong's eyes widened, "You..."
"Okay, stop talking. Everyone has their own difficulties. I've been friends with her for many years."
We can't completely turn a blind eye; we should still help her if necessary. If she were born into Jiang Yao's complicated family, her situation wouldn't be much better.
After Jiang Yao finished eating the bird's nest that Xiang Nanzhi had sent, she lay on the bed feeling drowsy. She really had a high fever, but Xiang Nanzhi didn't get angry at her at all, which was something she hadn't expected.
She had thought that Xiang Nanzhi would be soft-hearted towards her, but she didn't expect him to be so kind to her. Moreover, he didn't mention a word about Song Ze.
They didn't even ask.
This is so strange.
During dinner, Xiang Ciyuan heard that Xiang Nanzhi had brought Jiang Yao to his home to recuperate, and his expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant. However, Xiang Zhengyi cleared his throat and smiled, "As friends, it's only right for Zhizhi to help her out."
Xiang Ciyuan and Xiang Jing remained silent for a moment. Xiang Nanzhi cleared his throat and said, "Dad, there's something I want to tell you."
"Um?"
“Shen Shixun has changed construction sites. I guess he may have encountered some problems at his previous construction site.”
"He didn't encounter any problems."
Before Xiang Zhengyi could speak, Xiang Jingyi suddenly said, "He is now working under Zhang Yandong."
"Zhang Yandong?" Xiang Nanzhi looked surprised. "You mean the place he's working at now is a project under Zhang Yandong?"
"you do not know?"
Xiang Zhengyi and Xiang Jingyi were both looking at her, and even Xiang Ciyuan was looking at her. She didn't even know that Shen Shixun and Zhang Yandong knew each other.
“They’re old friends, Shen Shixun didn’t tell you.”
No, no.
Xiang Nanzhi was taken aback. "You all knew?"
Xiang Ciyuan lowered his head to eat, and Xiang Jingyi remained silent.
"Shen Shixun didn't tell you about this."
If an ordinary person knew a big shot like Zhang Yandong, and even had saved his life, wouldn't they want to brag about it?
"What exactly happened?"
"Jing Yi..."
Xiang Jingyi put down his chopsticks and gave Xiang Nanzhi a general account of what had happened. "That's how it is. I don't know much more. You'll have to ask him."
"Zhang Yandong appointed him as the person in charge of that construction site?"
"Um."
This is a good thing; he earns much more than before. So why does he still need to work two jobs, and why is his living place even more dilapidated than before?
So Zhang Yandong also knows about my relationship with him?
"Know."
After a moment of silence at the dinner table, Xiang Nanzhi suddenly said, "Since Zhang Yandong knows, then a small number of people must also know. The truth will eventually come out."
Xiang Zhengyi had said the same thing before, but Xiang Nanzhi was too proud to let anyone know about her relationship with Shen Shixun, so she didn't want a big celebration and ultimately only compromised by getting a marriage certificate. Xiang Zhengyi couldn't do anything about it.
