Even if Xu Qinghe snatched the engagement away, what would happen?
Without true love, a forced melon will never be sweet.
She swore that she would take back everything that belonged to her and make happiness belong to her again.
After a confrontation, both seemed satisfied on the surface, and each set off on their way home with their own thoughts.
Sun Youfang held the three heavy coins in his hand, feeling secretly delighted, thinking to himself: Su Qifen is really generous. Why don't I take this opportunity to get more benefits before I step into the Yin family's door?
She had already planned one plan after another in her mind. As long as she could make Su Qifen's hatred for Xu Qinghe deep-rooted, when she became the daughter-in-law of the Yin family in the future, she would naturally regard Xu Qinghe as a thorn in her side. Then she could hide behind the scenes and reap the benefits.
As for Xu Qinghe, he will never have a peaceful day in this life!
Just thinking about this, Sun Youfang felt in a good mood. Even when she faced Xu Qinghe again, the face that once disgusted her no longer seemed so annoying - anyway, someone would teach Xu Qinghe a lesson.
As soon as Xu Qinghe saw Sun Youfang's smug look when she walked in, he keenly smelled the scent of danger.
Alarm bells rang in her heart, knowing that this person had no good intentions, so she secretly vowed to remain highly vigilant against Sun Youfang and not give him any opportunity to take advantage of her.
Su Qifen, on the other hand, returned home feeling very aggrieved. She had no appetite for dinner and went straight into her room.
Fortunately, because she found a job, the Su family did not blame her too much. Instead, they thoughtfully saved food for her.
But this didn't alleviate Su Qifen's complex emotions. From childhood on, she had always been compared to Xu Qinghe, accused of being ungrateful for her blessings. Compared to Xu Qinghe's diligence and resilience in the face of adversity, she seemed so ungrateful...
The resentment accumulated over the years weighed on Su Qifen's heart like a heavy stone.
Whenever Xu Qinghe encountered setbacks, she would always have an inexplicable sense of superiority, enjoying the illusory sense of satisfaction of being superior to Xu Qinghe.
However, Xu Qinghe unexpectedly got such a happy marriage, and it was at the expense of Su Qifen's happiness.
But now, since the relationship between Yin Yunjie and Xu Qinghe has not yet been finalized, there is still room for recovery.
Su Qifen's gaze hardened, and she had a plan in mind—it was time for the key figure of the Yin family to play his true role...
Having made up her mind, she gently tidied up the scattered hair on her forehead, slowly pushed open the door, stepped into the warm sunshine outside, and headed towards the restaurant where she would have her meal.
In the next few days, whenever the sun set and the factory whistle announced the end of a hard day, Sun Youfang would hurriedly change out of his oil-stained work clothes and walk straight to the slightly shabby tool shed.
There, Su Qifen was waiting for her.
Every time they had a brief reunion, Su Qifen would never forget to hand over a few crumpled coins. Although the amount was insignificant, it stirred up ripples of gratitude in Sun Youfang's heart.
With Sun Youfang's constant encouragement and praise, Su Qifen gradually became upright and confident.
She began to draw up a beautiful dream in her mind, imagining that she had become the most dazzling pearl in the countryside, and even the well-known Yin Yunjie was attracted by her.
This dream was so gorgeous that she couldn't help but suspect that the reason why Yin Yunjie rejected Xu Qinghe was perhaps because he had reserved a unique place for her in his heart.
This idea spread like wildfire, making her eager to find Yin Yunjie.
However, Sun Youfang seemed to see through her impulsiveness. With a hint of anxiety and worry in her tone, she advised, "Qifen, you come from a decent family. Don't follow the lead of those rash women and rashly go to Yin Yunjie and say irrelevant things. Yin Yunjie is a man who values his reputation very much. If your actions cross his line, I'm afraid the situation will become awkward, and his words might be too sharp for you to bear."
Sun Youfang's words were like a wake-up call, instantly extinguishing the desperate passion in Su Qifen's heart.
She suddenly realized that her behavior was indeed too hasty. If she really angered Yin Yunjie, wouldn't that be the same as what Xu Qinghe had done before?
After a fierce ideological struggle, Su Qifen finally decided to adopt Sun Youfang's advice.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. Since they're living with you now, any news will naturally be hidden from you, so please be sure to tell me. But since they've each started their own families, Auntie, although I feel sad, I can only try to let it go slowly."
There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
Seeing this, Sun Youfang cleverly used her emotional offensive: "During these days of getting along, I really treat you like my own daughter, which is why I say these heartfelt words. Please don't mention this to outsiders."
Her tone was gentle and sincere, making it impossible to refuse.
Su Qifen nodded vigorously, her eyes firmly fixed on her response: "I understand, Auntie, don't worry!"
On the way home, Sun Youfang unexpectedly met Xie Di, who looked worried.
Xie Di crossed her arms in front of her chest and leaned against the outer wall of her house, obviously getting a little impatient.
Seeing this, Sun Youfang immediately adjusted her expression, put on a smile, and tried to step forward and hold Xie Di's arm to resolve the awkwardness.
"Hey, Sister Lin, come in and sit down. We can talk slowly."
Sun Youfang invited enthusiastically, trying to change the topic and ease the atmosphere.
However, Xie Di didn't seem to buy it. She looked slightly annoyed and stared at Sun Youfang sharply, her tone full of dissatisfaction and questioning.
In this small village, the news of Sun Youfang and Su Qifen's recent frequent interactions has already spread like wildfire, especially their long talks in the warehouse every night, which made Xie Di worry involuntarily, fearing that Sun Youfang would ignore her request.
At this moment, Xu Qinghe, who was about to call Yin Yunjie for dinner, overheard this conversation. She immediately stopped and hid aside quietly. Curiosity drove her to continue eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.
The two parties involved were completely unaware of this. Sun Youfang maintained her amiable smile and patiently explained, "My dear sister-in-law, I'm paving the way for you. If you want to take action against Qifen, how can you do that without building some ties with her first?"
Xie Di's expression softened slightly, but she still held a hint of dissatisfaction. "But you're too slow. Don't let it drag on until the very end, or someone else will snatch the duck from your hand."
Sun Youfang quickly waved her hands and soothed him, "It's almost done. Please give me some more time. We've been friends for so many years, don't you still not believe in my abilities?"
"Don't think too much of the bad stuff. Good things take time. Who can predict which petal the wheel of fate will stop on this time?"
There was some philosophy in her words, trying to calm Xie Di's anxiety.
