Going home was a happy thing for most people, but not for Su Yan at this moment.
It was not that she didnât miss her parents, she still didnât have the guts to face them. After Xie Yu escaped from marriage, Su Yan chose to hide from everyone, leaving her parents to face everything alone.
What was even more irresponsible was that she had been hiding at Bai Xingfanâs place for the past few days and had also cut off contact with the outside world. Although she did it to reveal the pain, she forgot about her parents and completely ignored their feelings.
As they were getting closer to their house, Su Yan felt uneasy, her breathing became more and more rapid, and she was so nervous that her palms sweated.
Their family lived in a high-end community called âGolden Lanwanâ. The main entrance of the community was connected by six tall white Roman columns. Behind the Roman columns was a lush garden, and there was a circular square with a fountain and a Cupid statue in the center of it.
Having lived there for more than ten years, Su Yan was very familiar with the scenery in front of her house.
The moment the statue of Cupid came into view, she held her breath and asked her younger brother nervously, âAre our parents still angry?â
Su Zhan replied truthfully, âNo, they arenât, it was grandma who was angry. â
Su Yan couldnât help but let out a sigh of relief, and then snorted coldly. âWhatâs there to worry about? Itâs too normal.â
Su Zhan, who was favoured by his grandmother, understood his sisterâs words clearly, so he didnât make any comments.
As only residentsâ vehicles were allowed to enter the community, the sister and the brother had to get off the vehicle at the entrance of the community, and five minutes later, they stood in front of their house.
While Su Zhan pressed his index finger to the fingerprint lock, Su Yan checked the time. âItâs still 9.32, so dad should have gone to the company by now, right? There should be only mom and grandma at home.â
Su Yan felt a bit relieved after remembering that. âItâs good that my father is not at home. If my grandma scolds me, my mother will protect me. But if dad is hereâŚâ
Her father, Su Jianan, was a reliable and good man, but he was very traditional.
Su Jianan could bear hardship and withstand hard work; he was positive and motivated; fortunately, he was down-to-earth and had a sense of responsibility. Even if he had become a company boss from a poor boy, he did not abandon his poor wife, who did share his burden and had never done anything to be sorry for her.
But he was a very traditional good man.
For example, he had expected a boy after Su Yan was born, and Su Yanâs mother had two abortions because of that. If Su Zhan was not a boy, his fate would be the same as that of the two sisters above him. Killed before birth.
For another example, her father was still a bit foolish and filial. In his heart, the grace of nurturing was greater than heaven, so his parents were more important than his wife, his wife was more important than his son, his son was more important than his daughter, and his daughter was more important than outsiders.
Su Yan knew that her father loved her, but if her fatherâs love could be divided into three groups, she was the last one. So if her father was at home, she had to listen to her grandmotherâs scoldings, which she could not refute, otherwise, in her fatherâs eyes, she would be an ungrateful person who didnât respect her grandmother.
With a âclickâ, the fingerprint lock was unlocked. Su Zhan pulled open the door and shouted from the top of his lungs as he walked into the room. âIs anyone there? Weâre back!â
Su Yan followed her younger brother in, and before she had time to change her slippers, her parents rushed over. Both the parents looked at her from head to toe several times, as if they were looking at something lost and found again.
âYanyan is back?â It was her father who spoke first, with distress and relief in his tone. âItâs good to be back, itâs good to be backâŚâ
Her mother, Liu Xiang, also nodded. âThatâs right, itâs good to be back.â But before she finished speaking, her eye circles turned red.
Su Yan didnât expect her parents to worry this much without blaming her. Feeling guilty, her eyes turned red, and she cried out with tears in her eyes. âDad, Mom.â
Liu Xiang also couldnât stop her tears and hurriedly hugged her daughter. âMy beauty, you have suffered such a great grievanceâŚâ
The motherâs tone was full of distress for her daughter.
Su Yan was not that wronged at first, but after hearing her motherâs words, she felt wronged again in an instant, and her tears couldnât stop flowing â just like when she fell down when she was a child, if her mother ignored her, she would get up by herself as if nothing happened, but if her mother showed any distress or caring attitude, she would start to cry.
Su Jianan also touched his eyes and looked at his daughter with distressed eyes, but after all, he was a man and the head of the family, so he quickly adjusted his emotions, waved his hands pretending to be indifferent, and persuaded, saying, âOkay, okay, donât cry, itâs all over, and we wonât talk about it in the future.â He said to his wife emphatically, âXiaoxiang, donât cry, Yanyan is fine at first, but when you started crying, she started to cry.â
Su Zhan was also persuaded. âThatâs right, donât cry, whatâs there to cry about? Itâs a good thing to get rid of that scumbag, Xie Yu! Itâs better than finding out that he is a scumbag after getting married!â
Su Jianan: âYes, what Xiao Zhan said is true!â
Liu Xiang hurriedly wiped away her tears after hearing her husbandâs and sonâs words, took another deep breath, and tried to smile at her daughter. âLetâs forget the past, there is still a long way to go, you are so beautiful, and you will definitely meet better people!â
Su Yan also smiled and nodded, with tears in her eyes. âYeah!â
