Chapter 822: Go Back and Wait for Me! (2)
Yang Yushan finished speaking in one breath, then quietly looked at Jiayu.
She felt what she said made sense, because of Jiayu’s status there. She wouldn’t provoke her, as long as she felt guilty.
Jiayu looked at Yang Yushan indifferently and suddenly laughed: "Miss Yang, may I ask in what capacity are you saying these things to me? His childhood friend?"
"I’m Ah Nan’s friend."
"Oh, a friend? A friend who has a crush on him?"
Yang Yushan looked a bit embarrassed; she didn’t expect Jiayu to be so straightforward in saying this.
But Yang Yushan is very generous; although Jiayu saying this made her feel awkward, she wouldn’t back down because of it.
She raised her chin slightly: "Yes, I like Ah Nan, and I have always liked Ah Nan. Uncle and Aunt also like me very much. If it weren’t for you..."
"If it weren’t for me, you would be the one standing next to Mu Ke; is that what you want to say?"
Before Yang Yushan could finish speaking, Jiayu interrupted her, still with a smile at the corner of her mouth. She bore no hostility toward Yang Yushan, but she didn’t like anyone trying to show off in front of her.
"Miss Yang, do you think this logic is reasonable? Didn’t you say you and Mu Ke have known each other since childhood? Was I present in your past years? Even leaving this question aside, would you really be together if I weren’t here? Do you know what the difference is?"
Jiayu’s smile became increasingly gentle, but her gaze was sharp: "When I’m with Mu Ke, it’s Mu Ke who marries me, and when you’re with him, it’s the Mu Family who marries you."
Throwing down these words indifferently, Jiayu didn’t look at Yang Yushan’s suddenly pale face and turned to leave.
She wouldn’t keep Yang Yushan in her mind, nor would she heed her words. She knew too well how Mu Ke felt about her; whatever issues they currently encountered wouldn’t involve emotional conflicts between them.
Returning to the floor where Ms. Wang’s hospital room was located, just stepping out of the elevator, Jiayu saw Mr. Mu standing to the side with a seemingly unpleasant expression, as if he were waiting specifically for her.
Seeing her come out, Mr. Mu walked over: "Miss Sheng, let’s talk."
Jiayu felt somewhat exhausted; first Yang Yushan sought her out, now Mr. Mu. She didn’t need to think to know what it would be about.
Mr. Mu led Jiayu to the emergency exit, and the man sighed deeply: "Miss Sheng, you have seen Mu Ke’s mother’s situation. We are not young anymore and cannot withstand any shocks. Mu Ke came home yesterday and had a big fight with her, which led to the current situation. I know we shouldn’t break up the pair, but..."
Mr. Mu didn’t finish and paused, directly offering a solution: "Miss Sheng, I hope you can proactively suggest a breakup to Mu Ke. You are both still young, and the future is bright. Feelings like these fade over time. You and Mu Ke are not from the same world. I hope you understand."
Jiayu felt a heart-wrenching pain; she really didn’t expect Mu Ke’s parents would oppose them to such an extent, leaving her completely unprepared.
Especially since Mu Ke’s mother was hospitalized because of it; how could she really let Mu Ke ignore this?
"Miss Sheng, I’m begging you."
As Mr. Mu spoke, his knees were already bending as if he were about to kneel to her. Jiayu hurriedly helped him up; she couldn’t bear it, how could she bear it?
"Uncle, I..."
"Impossible!"
