Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 954: Chapter 566: Jiang Yang’s Thoughts / Commitment (Part 4)

"Thank you for giving me face, but I don’t like you." Jiang Yang smiled at Luo Ye, "Ye’er, sister knows you mean well, but this time, I want to fight for myself. Just now, facing Little Fengzi, my heart actually sped up. This is the first time it has happened to me, so I must fight for myself."

Luo Ye’s eyes flashed with disappointment: "Sister Yangyang, if you do this, I can only choose to distance myself from you, and let my brother stay away from you as well."

Jiang Yang looked at her in confusion: "Ye’er, is that friend so important to you?"

"Yes, she is as important as my parents, my brother, and all my family." Luo Ye apologized as she held Jiang Yang, "Sister Yangyang, if it were something else, I would definitely help you, but not this. She is particularly important to me."

"I see." Jiang Yang looked at Luo Feng, "Do you like her because Ye’er made you like her, or because you yourself like her?"

"At first it was because of Ye’er, but later it was because of myself. Now, I can be sure, I like her." Luo Feng said without hesitation.

Little Pumpkin gave a thumbs up: "Brother Fengzi, I truly admire you, being fought over by two women, that’s so cool."

"Don’t be silly!" Wen Ke slapped him, "Look at the time, stop talking nonsense."

Luo Ye looked at Wen Yan: "By the way, why did all of you come to the hot springs, doesn’t Uncle need our help with the engagement preparations?"

"Grandpa, Grandma, and Second Uncle are helping with the preparation, coming to the hot springs was instructed by them, saying everyone must be energetic to visit the Hua Family tomorrow, because, well, the Hua Family is a medical family and they hate people who lack vitality."

Jiang Yang looked at Luo Ye: "In that case, should I also have a soak?"

Luo Ye waved in the distance, and a young girl about twenty years old came over with a bag, bowing to Jiang Yang: "Miss, this is your swimsuit, please follow me."

Faced with the situation, Jiang Yang lost her previous carefree attitude, hesitantly looking at Luo Ye: "Ye’er, how about you come with me, is that okay?"

Luo Ye understood immediately from her expression, lightly patting her: "Sister Yangyang, it seems you really like my brother, sorry, I really can’t support you."

"I know, do you really have to expose me again and again?" Jiang Yang’s eyes began to glisten with tears.

"I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, Sister Yangyang, don’t be upset." Luo Ye carefully wiped the corners of her eyes, jokingly saying, "It’s really surprising to see Wang Xifeng turning into Lin Daiyu."

"Annoying!" Jiang Yang slapped her, laughing through tears, "Forget it, I won’t soak either, don’t worry, I still have some moral bottom line. Even if I like Little Fengzi, I absolutely won’t ruin his relationship."

"Brother, you really are popular now." Luo Ye leaned close to Luo Feng, poking his chest, "Tell me the truth, when you arrived in Beijing, were there any girls who pursued you?"

Luo Feng squinted at her: "What do you think, Ye’er?"

Luo Ye scratched her head in conflict: "I’m so conflicted, I kind of hope there was but also hope there wasn’t, what do I do?"

Everyone: "..."

...

The next morning at eight o’clock, the Wen Family set off in a grand procession to the Hua Family to confirm the engagement, which is also referred to as the dowry delivery, and to set the marriage date.

By the roadside, a lot of people gathered to watch the excitement. Some admired, some envied, some offered blessings, and some mocked.

On a street, all aspects of life were on display.

At the corner of the road leading to the Hua Family, a woman in her forties was standing desolately by the wall, staring blankly at the crossroad ahead, her gaze seemed filled with anticipation, yet also seemed to have nothing.

She was Wen Tong’s ex-wife, Yu Miao.

Yu Na, who had been following behind all along, couldn’t stand it anymore, and appeared by her side to persuade: "Aunt, don’t watch anymore, okay?"

"It’s fine." Yu Miao forced a smile, "This is the only time I can openly see him, let me fulfill my wish."

"Aunt, even if Uncle marries, when you really want to see him, you can still ask him out. If you can’t be husband and wife, can’t you be friends?"

"It’s different. He has a wife now, asking him out would be wrong." Yu Miao smiled bitterly, "Nana, heed your Aunt’s advice, in matters of love, don’t listen to Grandpa, just follow your heart."

"If you like someone, don’t let go, and absolutely don’t sacrifice them for the Yu Family’s interest, otherwise, only you will suffer in the end."

"And the Yu Family, it will be just as it has always been, nothing will change. Look at me, and you’ll understand."

"Aunt..." Yu Na held her, unsure how to continue, Aunt was right, Mr. Yu never treated the girls of the Yu Family as people. It might sound extreme, but it’s not overstated.

Just like today with Wen Tong’s engagement preparations.

If Grandpa hadn’t intentionally leaked it to Aunt, how would she have known? Grandpa’s actions were meant to make Aunt lose control and cause trouble for the Wen Family.

As Aunt said, the ultimate result is that if it succeeds, the Yu Family benefits; if it fails, the Yu Family loses nothing, only Aunt suffers the loss.

"Nana, if there is a next life, I wish to be born into an ordinary family and live a simple, happy life." When saying this, Yu Miao’s eyes were full of longing.

"Aunt, once you let go, everything will get better." Yu Na hugged her tightly, "Once I start working, I’ll live with Aunt. In the future, I’ll take care of Aunt in old age, okay?"

"It’s really touching that you think this way, Nana, you’re such a kind child, you will definitely be happy in the future." Yu Miao closed her eyes briefly and continued, "Aunt also knows, you might have always had Ye Xuan in your heart, take Aunt’s advice, let yourself go."

"He doesn’t belong to you, and if you continue to hold on, you’ll only hurt yourself. Only by freeing your heart can you possibly come to like other boys."

"Actually, if it weren’t for the situation between the Yu Family and the Wen Family, Wen Yan and Wen Su would be great choices, unfortunately..." Yu Miao trailed off, saying no more.

"Aunt, thank you." Yu Na looked at her sincerely, "Aunt is the only family who truly treats me well, I understand it all."

"Silly girl, you’ve liked sticking close to Aunt since you were little, of course, Aunt will be good to you." Yu Miao’s eyes suddenly shone, "Here they come."
