At that moment, Helan Fangnian thought that he would not be able to face Yan Qingsi ever again.
What exactly did he do? Demanding for favor with his good deed in the past?
By using his kind act as a bargaining tool, he knew he had totally lost his chance to fight for Yan Qingsi’s heart.
What did he have to fight for it?
Moreover, he knew very well of the situation within the Helan’s family. Instead of taking over Helen’s family business, he would rather be a lawyer. Surely he would not want Yan Qingsi to face his family dirty issue.
“Thank you…” Helan Fangnian could not think of any other words to say besides these two.
Helan Xiuse wiped the tear off her face. “Thank you Sister Qingsi, thank you…”
She reached out her hand to tug Mrs. Helan’s sleeve. “Mom, Sister Qingsi is not a bad person. I’ve told you that the negative news online was fake and deceitful. Please don’t take it seriously. If Sister QIngsi were really that bad, why would both my brother and Brother Tingfeng fall for her? Someone that could be loved by both the brothers shouldn’t be that bad.”
Yan Qingsi looked quizzically at Helan Xiuse. She was not sure if she was overthinking.
Why did she think that Helan Xiuse was emphasizing that how both Yue Tingfeng and Helan Fangnian adored her? Why did she not feel that Helan Xiuse was defending her? Instead, she could sense that Helan Xiuse was actually mocking her, calling her a ‘vixen’ that was toying the men.
Yan Qingsi darted her eyes around. Besides Yue Tingfeng that was still wearing an ugly look on his face, the others were… not showing any abnormality.
Yan Qingsi analyzed Helan Xiuse’s expression again. She still had the youthful and blossoming look of the youngsters. She had a beautiful face with some baby fat like a round apple. Her eyes big and dazzling, they were still red and teary from crying a while ago.
Yan Qingsi suppressed the doubt in her heart, maybe… she was just overthinking.
Finally, under the persuasion of Helan Xiuse, Mrs. Helan said to Yan Qingsi, “Sorry, Miss Yan, I… was indeed being biased. Just like many people, I hate mistresses. Back then… Back then, someone told me that you found out that Yue Tingfeng and Yan Ruke had a relationship. On top of that, Yan Ruke and you are related. Hence… I was being judgemental. Please forgive me.”
Mrs. Helan sounded like she was really regretful.
However, her words carried a hidden message that sounded like this, ‘I was at fault but that was because I saw you as a mistress. And indeed you are a mistress, so it is perfectly normal for me to dislike you.’
Yan Qingsi felt like cursing Mrs. Helan after she figured out the true message. ‘You n*mbnuts, I’d smear your face with old cooking oil.’
Mrs. Yue cleared her throat. “Oh, sounds like you speaking from your experience. That was an eye for an eye, for someone that used to be a mistress. I remember that when you married Helan Chongwen, he had a fiancee.”
Mrs. Helan’s face that had started to look a bit better turned into dark indigo red of a pig’s liver instantly.
Yue Tingfeng had his mouth zipped up. He thought that his mom, the old lady was quite nasty when she attacked others compared to when she attacked him.
Yan Ruke was silent all the time as if she had blended in with the air, being unnoticeable. She finally said something, “Sorry, I think I need to clarify a few things. Everyone must have misunderstood, back then… I was obsessed with getting married to Yue Tingfeng, so I made up this story. That time I helped Mrs. Yue with something and Yue Tingfeng was thankful. Hence, he did not expose my lies. My lies had brought so much inconvenience to all of you, I’m really sorry.”
