After being dumped, I turned around and married my ex-boyfriend's younger brother.

Chapter 166 Did I let you go?

It’s over.

I haven't eaten anymore.

Upon seeing this, Gu Yanli, standing behind him, instinctively took several steps back.

"Gu Yanli, look what you've done! My sugar figurine is gone..."

Su Yiran focused her anger on one person. She turned to look at Gu Yanli, and frowned unhappily at the distance between them. "Why are you standing so far away?"

"Your sugar figurine business has nothing to do with me. I didn't touch anything."

Luckily, she ran fast enough that he didn't catch up, otherwise he would have been scammed by a sugar figurine seller.

"You...you're so annoying!"

Su Yiran stomped her foot and went back to her room.

I was out for over an hour and only ate one grilled sausage.

No matter how you look at it, it's not worth it.

After taking a shower, Su Yiran complained to Meng Ran, but it was getting late, and Meng Ran got so annoyed by the noise that she blocked Su Yiran.

"..."

Alright, time for bed!

Su Yiran lay back down in bed and went to sleep.

……

Su Yiran had only heard about Tang Yanzhe's childhood sweetheart from Yan Yuan.

She saw the other person's photo with her own eyes at the Tang family home.

The door to the storage room on the first floor was half-open. As Su Yiran passed by, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of a photograph.

I couldn't help but take a second look.

"It's her."

Yan Yuan stood beside her and whispered, "The person in his heart is my benefactor."

Su Yiran withdrew her gaze and looked at Yan Yuan, "You were with me that night, and Tang Yanzhe didn't make things difficult for you afterwards, did he?"

"No, don't worry."

Yan Yuan shook her head. "I heard you had an accident. What happened? Are you alright... about your injury..."

She noticed the injury on Su Yiran's neck and frowned. "Is it serious?"

"It's nothing, I'm fine, don't worry."

Su Yiran smiled at her, her gaze falling on her hair, which was slightly damp.

It rained in Shanghai today.

"Did you just arrive? Your hair is wet and you didn't even dry it. You'll catch a cold."

Su Yiran asked the maid to bring her a towel.

"I can do it myself, thank you."

Yan Yuan took the towel and slowly dried her hair. When she looked up, she saw Tang Yanzhe, who had appeared behind her at some point.

Tang Yanzhe was dressed in a light gray suit, one hand in his pocket, his deep eyes fixed on her.

"Mr. Tang... Mr. Tang."

Yan Yuan put down the towel in her hand.

She had never seen him like this before; he was always dressed in a suit and tie.

This was her second time visiting the Tang family.

When he first came here, his childhood sweetheart was still around.

Tang Yanzhe didn't say anything, but walked straight to her, took the towel from her hand, held the ends of her hair, and gently wiped it.

Yan Yuan subconsciously took two steps back.

The man took in her movements, his eyes darkening slightly, making her too afraid to speak.

Tang Yanzhe continued what he was doing without saying a word.

After the meal, in order not to disturb their serious conversation, Su Yiran and Yan Yuan strolled around the garden and chatted casually.

As they chatted, Su Yiran discovered that Yan Yuan was optimistic at heart, completely different from what she had imagined.

She loves to play, is full of curiosity about everything, and has her own opinions.

"Yan Yuan".

Su Yiran looked at her very seriously, "Go live the life you want to live. Speaking things out might not necessarily lead to a bad outcome."

"..."

Yan Yuan was stunned; she hadn't expected her to say these things.

She was silent for a moment, then said, "Sister Yiran, Mr. Gu likes you and does whatever you want, but I am not you and I don't have your good luck."

Su Yiran's understanding of Yan Yuan was only superficial. She had not experienced many things herself and could not make decisions for Yan Yuan from her perspective.

She did not continue the topic.

"Sister Yiran, I've never been to Santorini. Could you tell me more about it?"

"sure."

She went to Santorini a while ago, and although she spent most of her time indoors, she still encountered all sorts of things.

There was a fight going on in the middle of the night next door. She and Gu Yanli peeked out to eavesdrop, but before they could figure out what was going on, they were caught red-handed.

While watching the excitement, Gu Yanli was sometimes even more anxious than she was.

I often tell her about everything I see outside, big or small.

Sometimes happiness is that simple.

Su Yiran shared many interesting stories, and Yan Yuan also talked about her childhood memories.

Her life was dull, far less interesting than Su Yiran's.

After Gu Yanli and his group finished their business, it was already late, and they still had to rush back to the capital.

Watching Su Yiran leave, Yan Yuan's heart sank instantly.

Empty.

I feel really uncomfortable.

"you……"

Tang Yanzhe, who was standing next to her, looked at her and asked, "I heard that you two talked for a long time this afternoon. What did you talk about?"

As Yan Yuan listened to Tang Yanzhe's voice, her heart pounded uncontrollably.

She took a deep breath. "It's just some gossip. Madam Gu is a very nice person and easy to get along with."

"What gossip?"

Tang Yanzhe pressed for more information.

"..."

Yan Yuan frowned.

What's wrong with him today? Why is he so insistent on getting to the bottom of things?

Was he worried that she had said something she shouldn't have?

"Mrs. Gu told me about what happened in Santorini. She and Mr. Gu have a really good relationship."

So, you're envious?

The man narrowed his eyes, leaned down to meet her gaze, and said coldly, "Look at me when you speak!"

"I……"

Yan Yuan was startled by his shout and was forced to look up at him, trembling all over. "President Tang, it's getting late, and Mr. Gu and the others have already left. I won't disturb you any longer and will head back now."

She turned and left.

"Did I let you go?"

Tang Yanzhe lowered his voice, watching the other person's back, "You still haven't answered my question. Seeing how good their relationship is, are you envious?"

"No, I dare not."

Yan Yuan lowered her head.

"I told you to watch me, don't you ever learn your lesson!"

Tang Yanzhe gripped her chin tightly, forcing her to look up. "Do you think I can eat you up?"

Yan Yuan gripped her clothes tightly, forcing herself to calm down, but seeing Tang Yanzhe like this, she simply couldn't stay calm.

But why did her life turn out like this?

Is this the price to be able to see and have a normal heart?

She didn't have much ambition; she just wanted to live a normal life.

"I……"

Some words were on the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed them back the moment she met Tang Yanzhe's gaze.

She can't be impulsive.

She couldn't afford the gamble.

Her family is still in his hands.

"Mr. Tang, please don't do this."

Yan Yuan took two steps back. "It's getting late. The doctor said I need to rest before ten o'clock, otherwise it's bad for my heart."

This was Tang Yanzhe's biggest concern. He'd always gotten the results he wanted using this reason in the past, but—

"Stay today."

Tang Yanzhe said, "I'll have someone pack your things later, and you won't be staying there anymore."

"..."

Why not stay at the Tang family's place instead of a hotel?
