"Even if he didn't have feelings, what he did hurt you. That's the truth."
From beginning to end, they weren't angry at Huo Shaofeng because his feelings had changed, but because of his self-righteousness.
He did not consider Su Yayan or the Su family to be on the same level as him.
He looked down upon the marriage. Even when breaking off the engagement, he had a condescending and aggressive look.
Originally, even if the man was at fault for breaking off the engagement, the woman would definitely be hurt. Otherwise, no one would say things like "you're not good enough to keep a man and deserve to be abandoned".
Those people, especially Yayan, had their faces trampled on the ground.
Huo Shaofeng's actions back then had practically trampled on their family's reputation, especially Su Yayan's.
Cheng Xiuqin did not find it strange at all that Su Yayan was provoked because of this.
