Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander novel Chapter 120

Chapter 120: Chapter 120 Su Miao’s Matter

Before falling asleep, Sun Chan recalled that today’s trip to the Gu Family was quite smooth overall. She will try harder to make Gu Zishan accept her in the future.

Things went smoothly for her, but at the Yan Family, it was a gloomy scene.

Yang Hongying had woken up early and was brought back to the Yan Family by Yan Kai. She sat on the sofa, wiping her tears, looking completely drained, her face as pale as paper, and she appeared very worn out.

Both Mr. Yan and Yan Kai were comforting her, but it wasn’t very effective. Everyone knew there was practically no room for maneuvering in this matter.

Yang Hongying forced a smile and said, "Cousin, don’t worry about me. I anticipated this possibility all along. The Gu Family won’t accept me, and I can accept that. It’s just that it was troublesome for you today."

Yan Kai frowned slightly and said, "What is our relationship? Why say such polite words? I truly hope things go well for you."

"Yes, I understand." Tears fell again from Yang Hongying’s eyes.

Mr. Yan said, "I think we should pause on this matter. I’ll find time to talk with the old man from the Gu Family."

"No need..." Yang Hongying didn’t want to lose face any further. What happened today had thoroughly extinguished any spark and hope inside her heart. She smiled and said, "I think we should just break up. Anyway, I can survive on my own."

"How can you, as someone from the military, say such things? Has Gu Juntao really given up? Gu Dongfang hasn’t even said anything yet! You mustn’t surrender yourself to despair like this!" Yan Kai irritatedly tugged at his collar while looking at his cousin.

Such a wonderful girl, lively and cheerful, just because of marrying someone, does it mean her life is ruined?

Gu Juntao’s personal conditions were average, but Yan Kai didn’t fancy him at all, and couldn’t fathom why they would pick his sister apart.

Yang Hongying forced a smile, stood up, and said, "I should go back."

Mr. Yan naturally wanted to keep her, but Yang Hongying insisted on leaving, and could only have Yan Kai accompany her back.

As the two were just stepping out, they saw Han Dong rushing in hurriedly: "Is everyone here? I came to see the old man!"

Yan Kai hurriedly greeted him, but Mr. Yan just glanced at Han Dong, unwilling to acknowledge him—such a sly and idle brat. Heard his family wanted him to join the army and he flatly refused, not sure why Tian Jinhua ended up with such a troublesome child.

Yang Hongying kept her head down and left, Yan Kai was not familiar with Han Dong and just nodded, exchanging a few pleasantries before leaving.

Han Dong curiously asked, "What’s going on? There’s a fight?"

"There’s a small issue. Have a seat." Mr. Yan pointed to the sofa ahead.

"Alright, old man, I came to check on you." Han Dong noticed they didn’t mention anything, so didn’t pry further. He handed over gifts and said a few words.

"Is everything okay with your family?"

"Pretty good."

"I heard your dad seems to be having heart problems and had an episode?"

Knowing Zhao Yingjun had that... never imagined it would be so disgraceful!

Su Jinxiu, heavily pregnant, caused quite a ruckus, crying and yelling until she fainted directly from anger, even bleeding.

Zhao Yingjun feared it might turn deadly, and hurriedly ran next door to seek help from Tian Jinhua.

Tian Jinhua helped send her to the hospital immediately, both families were restless.

Meanwhile, Su Miao anxiously waited at home for a day, afraid to abruptly leave, knowing if a problem arose her parents wouldn’t spare her.

Sure enough, today when Su Jinxiu returned and saw her alright, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, yet soon Su Jinxiu demanded Zhao Yingjun drive Su Miao out: "With her, there’s no room for me. I can’t bear to see her! If you wish to bring ruin and disgrace, then keep her!"

Zhao Yingjun felt incredibly annoyed: "If she goes out like this, what would the neighbors think? Our reputation would be ruined!"

"We have long lost face together. Zhao Yingjun, I still have one in my belly now. If you have any conscience, there’s nothing more to say, quickly send her away." Su Jinxiu wept.

"But she’s your own niece..."

"I don’t care!" Su Jinxiu, seeming insane, tossed her bag at Su Miao’s feet: "Leave immediately, I’ve fed you long enough, always freeloading. Is this how you repay me?"

Su Miao gritted her teeth, glaring at Su Jinxiu, thinking, who asked you to keep me for free, clearly I had to work, not daring to do anything at home, serving you tirelessly, yet you look down on me?
