Chapter 1688 - 1105: Seeing Clearly (2)
You should be very clear that no matter what I do to Brother Hanliang now, it won’t change the fact that he doesn’t like me, so if you’re worried that I’ll ruin your brother and sister-in-law’s relationship, there’s no need.
Even if he were here, it wouldn’t make any difference how much effort I put in. I’m just fond of Tiger because of his association; I just want to be involved in his life to satisfy my own wish.
"We’ve been friends for years, and this is the first time I’ve noticed how skillful you are at lying with your eyes wide open. Just now, your hand was clenched like that, and the way you looked at Tiger, it was like you wanted to strangle him. And now you’re acting like you care so much about him? How stupid do you think I am to believe you?
That’s right, I am stupid, otherwise, I wouldn’t have been friends with you for so many years, nor would I have let you betray me time and time again but still remain friends.
And what if I didn’t have friends? Think back, why don’t I have any friends? Haha..." Zhou Hanying chuckled softly, shaking his head, "If it weren’t for your meddling, how could it be that I have no friends besides you?"
Before, I really hadn’t thought about it this way. I just thought it was my personality issue, that others didn’t want to hang out with me, not realizing it was all because you were causing trouble behind the scenes, sigh..."
"Hanying, is it because of what happened with Xiang Tao that you haven’t forgiven me?" Li Yuxiang frowned, grabbing Zhou Hanying’s arm, "You know very well that being with Xiang Tao was just to save you.
You’re too honest, how could you withstand the sweet talk from Xiang Tao? And your nature is to stick to something once you believe in it, without ever turning back. I was just worried that if you really got together with him, he would ruin your entire life.
So I took the initiative to approach him and lure him. The facts show that my worries were justified. With just a little friendliness from me, he turned to my side.
Do you think he broke up with me because he didn’t want me? The truth is, I realized you were already disappointed in him and had moved on from that relationship, so I intentionally angered him to make him propose the breakup.
Does it sound good for a girl to be dumped? But for you, I bore such a reputation. Not only do you not appreciate it, but you also resent me, Hanying, you’ve really let me down!"
Zhou Hanying rubbed his forehead helplessly: "Yuxiang, do you even know when you’re telling the truth anymore?"
"Hanying!"
"You don’t need to act like you’re especially wronged. I’m not falsely accusing you. I met Xiang Tao the other day, and he told me everything.
Don’t be in a hurry to argue or say that his words can’t be trusted. I can still distinguish who’s telling the truth and who’s lying.
Inviting you to Tiger’s hundred days feast was my last chance for you. After all, we’ve been friends for so many years. I cherish this friendship. Unless it was absolutely necessary, I wouldn’t want to give it up.
Unfortunately, you’ve let me down so much. Alright, you’ve attended enough of today’s full moon feast. In the future, don’t come looking for me again. Our family business has nothing to do with you anymore.
Don’t guess what happened between Xiang Tao and me; with my personality, as long as he betrayed me once, it’s impossible for anything to happen again in this lifetime. Moreover, I never really wanted to be with him in the first place. Just when I was hesitating, he made that decision, saving me the trouble.
So, honestly, I still have to say, thank you for making me see someone clearly, for not wasting my life. It’s because of this that I’ve let it go with you all this while.
But now, I can’t continue our relationship. Jealousy has clouded your mind. I’m afraid that if I stay with you, one day you’ll do something to harm my family.
That’s right, whatever you do, my brother won’t even give you a look. But I don’t want your presence to cause conflicts between my sister-in-law and my brother.
When my brother got married, you already went too far. Now that you’ve broken up with Xiang Tao, who knows what crazy thing you might do. I can’t take that risk, and I definitely won’t take that risk.
If you still care about your reputation, then leave quietly. Otherwise, when you’re thrown out, don’t blame me for not warning you. My brother’s friends aren’t as easygoing as I am!"
Li Yuxiang looked at Zhou Hanying in disbelief. She couldn’t imagine that this long string of ruthless words came from the usually honest and somewhat timid Zhou Hanying.
Moreover, she knew better than anyone how much Zhou Hanying longed for friendship. How could it be that in the blink of an eye, she no longer cared about anything? How dare she treat her like this?
All her life, wasn’t she the one always yelling at Zhou Hanying? Wasn’t it that Zhou Hanying listened to her about everything?
Seeing Zhou Hanying about to walk away, Li Yuxiang grabbed her arm: "Is it because I wrote to Luan Dajiang that you’re doing this on purpose?"
"You wrote to Luan Dajiang?" Zhou Hanying’s lips curled into a mocking smile, "Li Yuxiang, you really are something. Do you have to meddle with anyone related to me? Suit yourself. It’s your choice whom you want to write to. It’s none of my business."
Li Yuxiang hurriedly said: "Don’t misunderstand, I wrote to him to speak well of you. When you gave him up and chose Xiang Tao, I really felt sorry for you, so I thought to help you out..."
