Chapter Seventy-Three: Just Friends
Xu's mother was very unfriendly, looking at Li Yan with disgust and making sarcastic remarks.
Li Yan has always been the one who is pampered, but she is not one to be trifled with.
She met Xu's mother's condescending gaze without flinching, coldly curling her lips: "Someone with a heart like yours sees everything as dirty."
Li Yan was still angry. She didn't hold a grudge against Gu Tingyan because he was sick and was her son.
But Xu Rou and her mother were different; she took all the benefits from her son.
And then he turns around and criticizes his mother?
Li Yan was the first to disagree.
"How dare you speak to your elders like that?"
Xu's mother was angered by Li Yan's attitude and put on her elder's airs.
"How did your family raise you? Why did you have to seduce Rou Rou's boyfriend?"
Li Yan wanted to laugh. Someone like Xu's mother wanted to be her elder?
If she hadn't died, she would have been several years older than Xu's mother.
However, hearing that Xu's mother misunderstood her relationship with her son, she couldn't directly explain that she was Gu Tingyan's mother.
Seeing Li Yan deep in thought, Xu's mother was smug, thinking that Li Yan was ashamed by what she had said.
Unexpectedly, Li Yan suddenly said, "I don't have an elder like you."
"you!"
Xu's mother wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Li Yan, who looked at Xu Rou sitting in front of the hospital bed.
“I don’t remember when your daughter agreed to A-Yan’s request. I only remember that she was forced to move into the Gu family and has been defying and provoking A-Yan ever since.”
Xu Rou's face darkened even more. Just as she was about to say something, Li Yan said slowly, "Also, Gu Tingyan and I are completely innocent. Stop slandering my relationship with him. I am his... childhood friend."
finally.
That was the only explanation Li Yan could give; anything else wouldn't be appropriate.
Xu Rou looked at Li Yan with surprise in her eyes.
She always thought that Gu Tingyan was so good to Li Yan because Li Yan was his new love.
Even if they're just friends, they're still childhood sweethearts.
How can there be a purely platonic relationship between a man and a woman?
Even though Li Yan wasn't, Xu Rou still had her own plans in mind.
"You and Xiao Gu are just friends?"
Xu's mother looked at Li Yan with some shock, and asked uncertainly.
Li Yan still explained gently, "I'm married and have a husband who loves me very much. How could I possibly have that kind of relationship with A-Yan?"
Li Yan didn't want to be misunderstood all the time as a woman who had ulterior motives in getting close to Gu Tingyan.
Upon hearing that Li Yan was married, Xu's mother's alarm instantly vanished, and her mood changed swiftly, as she smiled amicably and said, "Oh, I see."
Xu's mother was hospitalized every day, and Xu Rou spent every day in the hospital taking care of her.
Knowing that Xu's mother treated her son well, she occasionally brought things to visit Xu's mother, always during times when Xu Rou was not around.
Therefore, Li Yan intentionally or unintentionally revealed Xu Rou's attitude towards her son to Xu's mother, hoping that Xu's mother could control Xu Rou a little.
Even though she didn't like them being together, she, as a mother, didn't want to watch Xu Rou drive her son to his death every day.
"Aunt Xu, you have no idea how much A-Yan has sacrificed to help you."
"But Xu Rou always picks on A-Yan, yelling at him, cursing at him, provoking him, and even trying to sow discord between A-Yan and his brother."
"Could you talk to Xu Rou about it later?"
Li Yan held a grudge, and since Xu Rou had sown discord between her and Er Baobei, she wouldn't mind retaliating.
Upon hearing this, Xu's mother immediately assured Li Yan, "Xiao Li, don't worry, when Rou Rou comes back, I will definitely give her a good talking to!"
