Chapter 1179: How Can You Expect Me to Be Content?
Fan Yu looked away and said, "It’s none of your business."
Fan Xinglan knew her too well; her demeanor clearly meant she agreed.
He couldn’t comprehend it, his eyes widened slightly: "Sister, what’s really going on? Why do you keep targeting Little Sister-in-law? Do you dislike her that much? What exactly did she do to offend you?"
"And I already told you Brother Yan was unhappy, why do you still go to her..."
Saying this, he thought of something and suddenly fell silent.
Looking at Fan Yu, who was reeking of alcohol with tear stains still on her face, a certain thought was on the verge of surfacing in his mind.
His eyes widened slightly, in disbelief:
"Sister, could it be... you still like Brother Yan?"
Fan Yu lowered her eyes: "Is that not allowed?"
"But, two years ago you clearly promised me you’d moved on, how could it be..."
Moreover, she hadn’t shown any intention of returning home, and she’d been doing well abroad on her own.
Fan Xinglan always thought she had moved on, so he never thought about it from this perspective.
But once he did, it seemed like everything made sense.
Why his sister always held a grudge against Little Sister-in-law, why she would question Little Sister-in-law when Yan got involved in an accident, why her words always seemed to target Little Sister-in-law...
Fan Yu was very calm, took another sip of alcohol, and said softly, "I regret it, is that not allowed?"
"Two years ago I thought I could let go, I always tried to convince myself to let go, but Xinglan, you don’t understand, no matter how hard I try to forget him, feelings that have lingered for more than a decade can’t be easily forgotten..."
Fan Xinglan furrowed his brow, unable to comprehend her persistence: "But Brother Yan already has a girlfriend."
Fan Yu said: "So what? For two years, I could have appeared, but I kept restraining myself, kept reminding myself that he had a girlfriend, he had someone he liked, that coming back couldn’t change anything. I know he likes Yun Qiqi, I know he loves her almost obsessively, so even though I miss him, I decided to leave him to Yun Qiqi and never came back..."
"But look, Yun Qiqi? How did that girl treat him?"
"Yan Yan searched for her for two years, disregarding life and death, with all his might. Yet when she returned, she forgot all of you completely, which is fine by itself, but what I can’t tolerate is that during the explosion, Yan was injured for her, and she acted as if it was only natural, not even sparing a glance at him when he was in a coma."
Fan Xinglan hadn’t realized she thought like this. He instinctively said, "Little Sister-in-law must have her reasons..."
"She trampled on the thing I’ve longed for half a lifetime, disregarded and beneath her feet," Fan Yu interrupted him, saying, "How can you ask me to be content?"
After coming back from the hospital, she was initially very sad, deeply hurt by what Yan Yan had said about her.
But she thought about it for a long time and understood.
She still likes him.
No matter that he never spared her a glance, or that his eyes only saw Yun Qiqi disdaining her, she still likes him very much.
Those feelings, she suppressed for two years, but now, she doesn’t want to suppress them anymore.
Even if in the end she gets nothing good out of it, she will fight for it. She will no longer avoid, no longer give others like Yun Qiqi such opportunities.
Fan Xinglan watched her cry with tears streaming down her face, for a moment unsure of what to think; this news was quite shocking to him, no less than when he first heard her say she liked Yan Yan two years ago.
