Chapter 213 When the White Moonlight Overturns the Plot 20
Xiao's father now finds everything about Xiao Yichen displeasing, but since he is his own son, he manages to find some of the things he finds displeasing somewhat agreeable.
Then he saw Xiao Yichen drive up in that car filled with the phrase "May your descendants last for generations."
Xiao's father exploded: "Wait, you're going to drive this car?"
Seemingly recalling some unpleasant memory, Xiao Yichen pursed his lips and nodded slightly awkwardly.
He didn't know that Xiao's father would come to arrest him, so he was completely unprepared, which left a bad impression on Xiao's father.
I don't know what the future holds...
Stop!
Xiao Yichen stopped his dangerous thoughts and warned himself, "You two have no future. You need to go find Sister Xiaoyan now. She's been my white moonlight since high school."
Shouldn't he be happy? But why can't he be happy? There's a strange bitter feeling in his heart.
Xiao's father reluctantly got into the car. Seeing Xiao Yichen looking dazed and confused, he frowned and patted his shoulder with a bit of force, bringing him back to the present.
Xiao's father had a bad feeling.
This kid... won't he cause him trouble, will he?
No, no, no. Although my son is a bit dim-witted and got scammed by a gold digger, he's impeccable in every other way except when it comes to feelings.
But he didn't know that his son was clinging to the Fu family because he wanted to find affection.
As soon as the car came to a stop, Xiao Yichen quickly got out. Seeing that he had already walked away, Xiao's father also hurriedly sped up.
How come this kid is so fast? He didn't even wait for his dad.
Father Xiao watched as Xiao Yichen ran far away, then suddenly stopped in one place, motionless, his slender body even trembling slightly.
what happened?
Xiao Yichen never expected to actually run into Sister Xiaoyan here. She was still the same as before, with relaxed eyebrows, a gentle smile, and a pair of watery autumn eyes that were soft and tender.
He was so happy he was dizzy with joy, both surprised and delighted; this grown man actually put on an expression of being overjoyed and about to cry.
He took a step forward, handed over the jasmine, and said in a hoarse voice, "Sister Xiaoyan."
Wen Yan was stroking the delicate flower petals in front of her, immersed in her first meeting with Fu Rong.
Fu Rong took a liking to his niece-in-law almost at first sight, and he kept praising her for more than ten minutes without repeating himself.
He was much more straightforward than Fu Chen. Fu Chen would be considerate of her delicate skin, but Fu Rong didn't care about any of that. He was all about how she was unique in the world, intelligent and kind-hearted, well-dressed, and had a great temperament. Most importantly, she played the zither so well...
Wen Yan blushed upon hearing this, but she was indeed relieved.
She was always worried that Fu Chen's uncle wouldn't like her, even though Fu Chen firmly and confidently told her that her uncle would definitely like her, she still lacked confidence.
Even her blood-related parents rejected her, let alone an outsider.
But this situation is something she didn't expect.
Fu Chen noticed this and nodded secretly, giving Fu Rong a thumbs-up.
Fu Rong was delighted. He reached into his pockets and found a jade bracelet, which he then gave to Wen Yan.
“This was passed down from Fu Chen’s grandmother. It was given to Fu Chen’s mother before, and now it’s for you. Oh, and this too…” Fu Rong turned slightly to the side so that Wen Yan could see the pile of gifts behind him: “This is the gift I prepared for you.”
Under the light streaming through the window, the jade bracelet radiated a soft glow, crystal clear, like a piece of solidified moonlight, its delicate texture making it irresistible.
Wen Yan liked it, but it was too expensive. She wanted to refuse, but then she happened to see a bunch of gifts on the ground.
Is this... the Fu family tradition?
Gifts were being given out everywhere.
She roughly estimated that there were more than twenty items, stacked up to a meter high.
She was a little flustered, but Fu Chen took the jade bracelet and put it on her slender wrist. The touch of green on her fair wrist had a unique beauty.
Fu Chen's gaze was deep and intense: "You suit this jade well, accept it."
Wen Yan looked at the jade with delight, then listened to his words and looked up blankly: "Did you say something wrong? Shouldn't it be that this jade complements me?"
Fu Chen shook his head and affirmed, "No, you are the perfect match for this jade. Even the finest jade is useless without the right person. It is your appearance that gives this jade its value."
He looked serious, as if he were talking about something important.
Wen Yan revealed a faint smile, like a delicate flower in its first bloom, pure and beautiful.
"Sister Xiaoyan?"
The sudden sound interrupted Wen Yan's recollection. She frowned and looked toward the source of the sound, where Xiao Yichen was holding the pot of jasmine and crying tears of joy.
His expression was as if he was about to get married.
Wen Yan's voice turned several degrees colder: "What are you doing here?"
"Sister Xiaoyan, I've come to see you... to see how you're doing."
"Without you disgusting me, I'm much better off, and my appetite is even better than before. Thank you."
Xiao Yichen panicked: "I'm not... Sister Xiaoyan, please let me explain... I have my reasons, I have my reasons! But you won't listen to me, and even now you're just denying everything..."
Wen Yan coldly interrupted him: "Go on, you speak."
Xiao Yichen was stunned. This wasn't going to follow the expected pattern.
Shouldn't it be that I refuse to listen, then he pesters me relentlessly, using every trick in the book, until he begs for my pity, and finally I forgive him?
This always worked for Qianqian, so why doesn't it work for Xiaoyan?
"Tell me, you've been staring blankly for so long, haven't you made up a story yet?" Wen Yan glanced at him indifferently, walked quickly towards him, snatched the jasmine, and retreated a few meters away as if avoiding something dirty.
Xiao Yichen, who inexplicably tensed up when she got closer: ! ! ?
"Sister Xiaoyan, I just did something wrong, but that doesn't mean I won't change. I'm too young, and I miss you so much that I... that's why I... that's why I used Qianqian... no, that's why I used Ye Qianqian as a substitute for you to ease my longing. You don't know, without her as a substitute for you to support me, I simply couldn't survive."
"Sister Xiaoyan, how could you just leave like that, abandoning everything? If you hadn't left, how could we have ended up like this..."
With red eyes, Xiao Yichen spoke with a trembling heart, finally venting the bitterness and suppressed love he had endured for seven years.
"Stop, stop, stop!" Wen Yan interrupted his shameless words, shocked that someone in the world could be so shameless: "So, you're saying it's my fault that you went to find Ye Qianqian?"
Xiao Yichen didn't say "um," but his face was full of an expression that said, "You're also at fault."
"Hehehe, Xiao Yichen, you really broadened my horizons. You make it sound so legitimate that you're the victim and Ye Qianqian and I are the oppressors."
Her eyes flashed sharply, and with each step she took, she forced him back a step: "Did I force you to sign a lover agreement with Ye Qianqian? Did I force you to have a relationship with Ye Qianqian? Did I force you to get together with me as soon as I came back? Did I force you to do any of this?"
“Xiao Yichen, I didn’t know you when I went abroad. Oh no, I knew you. You forced me to go abroad.”
Wen Yan had become a completely unfamiliar person to Xiao Yichen. She was cold and sharp, and her aggressive aura made him feel ashamed, but he still remembered to ask her a question.
"You said you don't know me, so how could I force you?"
"You still know that we didn't know each other back then?"
Xiao Yichen's expression changed; he'd fallen into her trap. "What I mean is..."
"Shut up. Didn't you want to know why you forced me to go abroad? Didn't your dear Qianqian tell you that I didn't want the marriage between the Wen and Xiao families four years ago, and I'm even less willing to accept it today? No, I'm not just unwilling, I'm disgusted!"
Xiao Yichen was shocked and staggered back a step.
The engagement four years ago... was something he begged and pleaded with his parents for...
