Xia Yangyang stealthily pulled her hand from Liu Ruyan’s grasp, saying: “Aunt Liu, I understand. I won’t tell my father about these things.”
Regarding Liu Ruyan, Xia Yangyang had always addressed her as Aunt Liu, even though she’d been part of this family for ten years.
All these years, Liu Ruyan was never severe with her in their daily life, but Xia Yangyang hadn’t felt at home since the woman had married her father. free(w)ebnovel(.)com
Just as Xia Weiwei had said, she had become the third wheel in this otherwise happy trio.
Liu Ruyan said, “Your father is back, let’s go to the dining room to eat.”
Xia Liangdong was pleased to see Xia Yangyang, he knew she was visiting and had purposely bought her favorite durian mille-feuille.
But then, Xia Weiwei took the opportunity while Xia Liangdong was absent to throw the mille-feuille cake in the trash. When Xia Liangdong discovered what she had done, she pointed out innocently, “Dad, it smells so bad. I get a headache when I smell it. Look around this house, you don’t like durian, and mum and I don’t either. We shouldn’t have to suffer just because my sister likes it, I still have homework to do.”
Just as Xia Liangdong was about to scold her, Liu Ruyan came over and said, “It’s just a mille-feuille. I’ll buy another one tomorrow. I cooked so many delicious dishes today, it’s not worth upsetting the child over a cake. Yangyang, you don’t mind, do you?”
Xia Yangyang said lightly, “I don’t mind.”
That was her way of surviving in this family, it was best not to concern herself with everything.
Xia Liangdong felt guilty seeing Xia Yangyang’s indifferent attitude.
Because he remembered that Yangyang was lively and cute when she was little, not like this.
Indeed, he had failed her.
During dinner, Xia Weiwei intentionally stirred up trouble, saying to Xia Liangdong, “Dad, you probably don’t know, Sister has broken up with Brother Haotian.”
Xia Liangdong was quite surprised, “Yangyang, is this true?”
Speaking of which, Xia Yangyang really had to thank Xia Weiwei for her gossipy nature, otherwise, she wouldn’t know how to broach the subject.
Xia Yangyang said calmly, “Yes, we broke up.”
“Why? Weren’t you two doing fine? I was just discussing with Uncle Lu about letting you two get married right after graduation. Did something misunderstand between you and Haotian?”
Xia Yangyang said, “Dad, there’s no misunderstanding between us. You know Gong Xue’er, right? She’s pregnant, and the child is Lu Haotian’s.”
Xia Liangdong was furious, “That rogue Haotian, how dare he do such outrageous things! Yangyang, rest assured, I’ll go to the Lu Family and demand justice for you.”
Xia Weiwei added fuel to the fire from the side, saying: “Isn’t Gong Xue’er your best friend? The one from that poor family who can’t make ends meet? Even such a poor thing has poached your boyfriend. Sister, how can you be so useless? Even Brother Haotian chose a girl from such a family background over you, it’s obvious how terrible you are!”
Xia Liangdong was angry, “Weiwei, shut up.”
But Xia Weiwei wasn’t done, she persisted, “What I’m saying is true. Does Yangyang even look like the daughter of the entertainment tycoon Xia Liangdong? She’s so unsophisticated, she looks like she’s from a village. Brother Haotian is no fool, he’ll despise her sooner or later.”
Just as Xia Liangdong was about to lose his temper, Xia Yangyang put down her chopsticks and said, “I’m full now. You all enjoy your meal.”
With that, Xia Yangyang returned to her room.
When it came to Lu Haotian, Xia Yangyang still felt heartbroken.
He was her first love, a boy she had earnestly loved for ten years.
If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, Xia Yangyang wouldn’t have believed that Lu Haotian would cheat.
After a while, Xia Liangdong entered the room.
“Yangyang,” Xia Liangdong called her.
