…
After buying the pizza, Lin Xiaohe returned to the car, but no one came out for a long time.
Just as he was about to go up to look for someone, his phone rang, and Fang Henian's anxious voice came from the other end: "Evan, has May returned to City A?"
"Isn't she taking care of you in Hongcheng?"
"We had a fight yesterday, and she disappeared. I've been looking for her in Hong Kong all day and can't find her. Can you help me find Yao and get some information?"
"Okay, I'll go ask for you. But what were you fighting about? May has always been a steady person. How bad of a mess did you have to make to make her so angry and leave?"
Fang Henian let out a long sigh.
"The Li family specifically asked me to marry their youngest daughter to them before they would cooperate with the Fang family. My dad has already agreed, and the news was published in the tabloids yesterday."
Lin Xiaohe hissed, "So you agree too?"
"I knew about this a few months ago. I didn't want to do it, so I started a gambling and racing car competition with them, hoping to give the Fang family a chance of survival... but I ended up screwing it up."
The pleading voice continued: "Evan, I really don't want to break up with Xiaomei. Please help me. Tell me as soon as you have any news..."
-
In the room, Xu Mengyao was running wildly with righteous anger.
"Is she fucking crazy?! Usually, wealthy wives throw money at women trying to break up with their sons. But she's actually dragging her own daughter down on her knees, begging you. Are you using a penny for money and not using moral blackmail?! She's acting like a concubine and she wants to be the principal wife!"
The more she spoke, the angrier she became. She continued, "And Fang Henian's father. We warned them from the beginning! The Lin family's losses were minimal, so why did the Fang family have to sell their son to save their family?"
In ancient times, princesses who were married off for foreign purposes couldn't guarantee peace for more than a few years. How could he expect to spend the rest of his life selling his children to ensure his wealth and glory?!"
Seeing her so angry, Xiaomei tried to persuade her instead.
"Don't be angry. His mother was honest and didn't belittle me at all. What she and Henian said was insignificant and could not determine the future of the Fang family."
Xu Mengyao was so angry that she poked her head.
"Are you stupid? You're still speaking for others. Doesn't Fang Henian himself not want to do that? Why do you care about the Fang family's life or death? Haven't they paid much attention to Fang Henian in the past few years? Now you want to push him out just because he's useful? How can such a good thing happen? In my opinion, you two should just live your lives in City A."
Xiaomei shook her head slightly.
"He's unwilling now, but if he were asked to give up his entire family, he would definitely feel bad. After all, the Fang family has given him a comfortable life for over 20 years, not to mention the ties he has with his mother and two sisters."
"I myself would feel uncomfortable being separated from parents like that. I don't want him to follow the same path, and I don't dare. I'm afraid that sooner or later, he will hate me, and he will hate himself..."
"You..."
The doorbell rang, interrupting their conversation.
Lin Xiaohe looked at the anger on his girlfriend's face that had not yet completely subsided, and realized that she must have heard about Fang Henian.
Raise the pizza box in your hand.
"What's taking you so long? The pizza is getting cold. Eat first and then go back."
Xu Mengyao directly used the door to block the person who wanted to come in, and apologized softly:
"I'm sorry, Xiaomei is back. She's in a bad mood, so please don't come in. I won't be going over there for the time being."
He was just about to ask a few questions in a pretentious manner when the thing in his hand was taken away and a perfunctory kiss was quickly passed over his cheek.
"Thank you for the pizza. I will enjoy it. Love you, bye-bye."
Then there was a loud "clang".
Lin Xiaohe, who was locked outside the door, shook his head helplessly and began to inform his good brother.
-
"Xiaomei, come and eat your pizza while it's hot. Man is iron and rice is steel, no matter what happens next, you have to eat well. Seeing you so thin makes me feel bad."
Xiaomei was dragged to sit at the dining table by her.
"I just heard Lin Xiaohe's voice. How could you not even let him in? That's so rude."
"It's okay. Sisters are like siblings, and men are like clothes. My siblings are feeling uncomfortable right now, so how can I have the time to take care of clothes?"
Xiaomei was amused by her words, and Xu Mengyao continued, "That's right, you look better when you smile. You're not as good as Wenxia in this regard. She continued to eat and drink even after her relationship with Cheng Xin broke up, and even came to City A to play during the holidays. You should learn from her then."
"Ah? How come Wenxia and Chengxin broke up?" Xiaomei was also shocked.
"You can't believe it, right? Life is like an electrocardiogram with its ups and downs. Ups and downs are normal. Besides life and death, everything else is trivial. Eat quickly, then take a shower and have a good sleep. I'll watch over you."
The next day, Xu Mengyao found a lot of comedy movies, and the two of them watched them on the sofa without going out.
When the doorbell rang again and Fang Henian appeared at the door, the smile on Xiaomei's face disappeared completely.
The silent atmosphere and the cheerful laughter from the TV formed a sharp contrast.
"You guys chat first, let's go out for dinner." Lin Xiaohe broke the silence first and pulled Xu Mengyao away.
"Hey, why did you drag me out? I want to be with Xiaomei." Xu Mengyao glared at him in dissatisfaction.
Lin Xiaohe took the person into the elevator.
"My dear lady, please don't worry so much. They both need to have a good talk now."
"Okay, you already knew about their affairs, didn't you? You came up to deliver pizza just to tip off Fang Henian."
"It's unfair! You asked me to go buy pizza. We were always together before. If I had known earlier, I would definitely have told you."
