...
The secretary quickly brought over the clothes. When the secretary arrived with the clothes, Song Huanyan hid under the blanket, too scared to see anyone.
Yun Jianchen went to take a shower in the bathroom.
Seizing the opportunity when he was showering, Song Huanyan hurriedly changed her clothes. In fact, she felt sticky and uncomfortable all over her body. She wanted to take a shower too, but Yun Jianchen had monopolized the bathroom.
By the time Yun Jianchen finished his shower and came out, Song Huanyan had already changed into her clothes and sneaked back home.
Yun Jianchen, after his shower, unsurprisingly, didn't see Song Huanyan. He raised an eyebrow nonchalantly, thinking she could escape?
...
Just as Song Huanyan arrived at her doorstep, she was blocked by someone.
She saw Song Xiaoyu, with tears brimming in her eyes, looking at her.
Song Xiaoyu, her eighteen-year-old cousin, her second uncle's daughter, was a crybaby!
A true crybaby, indeed.
Song Xiaoyu was the youngest child of their generation in the Song Family, beloved by everyone as the little cousin. Just turned eighteen, as the youngest in her generation in the Song Family, she was showered with affection! Every single person adored her, and logically, such a pampered young lady should have developed a spoiled temperament!
But this cousin of hers, for some reason, had always been timid from a young age and was very prone to crying. By the age of 25, she had not seen any woman who loved to cry more than Song Xiaoyu.
Just a single word of criticism could make her eyes fill with tears.
"Cousin…" Song Xiaoyu called out to Song Huanyan timidly, tears swirling in her eyes, looking as if she was about to start crying.
"Stop!" Song Huanyan yelled at Song Xiaoyu.
Song Xiaoyu looked at Song Huanyan with wide eyes, tears sparkling in them.
"Song Xiaoyu, don't you dare cry! I don't blame you for what happened with Yun Zuoyi! You don't have to feel sorry for me, I will break off the engagement with Yun Zuoyi," Song Huanyan said quickly.
She felt uncomfortable all over and just wanted to go back to her room, take a nice bath, and then get a good sleep... She had been tormented badly by Yun Jianchen last night and this morning, even walking hurt.
In such a state, she really didn't have the energy to talk about emotional issues with Song Xiaoyu.
Now that Yun Zuoyi and Song Xiaoyu had been intimate, it was impossible for her to continue the engagement with Yun Zuoyi. Breaking off the engagement was inevitable, and as for how Song Xiaoyu and Yun Zuoyi would develop… That was no longer her business.
"Wuu wuu… wuu wuu…" Song Xiaoyu broke down and started crying. Her tears flowed uncontrollably like a breached dam.
"…" Song Huanyan felt a headache coming on.
Song Xiaoyu, the crybaby!
"Enough!" Song Huanyan shouted, glaring at Song Xiaoyu: "Song Xiaoyu, why are you crying? The one who should be crying is me, okay? My fiancé and my cousin betrayed me! I'm the one who should be crying; I'm the victim! I haven't cried, so what are you crying for?"
"…" Song Xiaoyu continued to cry as she looked at Song Huanyan.
Song Huanyan gave Song Xiaoyu one last look and then strode into the villa.
Behind her, Song Xiaoyu was crying with tears welling in her eyes.
Song Huanyan returned to her room, prepared hot water and essential oils, and took off her clothes… Yun Jianchen, that beast!
Song Huanyan took a hot bath, put on her pajamas, and got into bed. Soon, she fell asleep.
She was truly exhausted.
Song Huanyan slept till it was time for dinner. The maid called her to get up and eat.
Indeed hungry, Song Huanyan got out of the bed, freshened up, changed her clothes, and went downstairs for dinner.
