I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 224 Your abilities will one day be seen by your family.

"Haha, little beauty, you're so good at praising people! Come on, wipe your tears, your face is so pretty, don't cry."

The person in front of her squatted down, took out a tissue from her bag, and gently wiped away Yu Lingxue's tears.

Yu Lingxue's lips moved slightly. She hadn't expected that the kindness of a stranger could move her so much, making her want to cry again...

"Thank you... sister..."

"Sister? Hahaha, my son is the same age as you, just call me Aunt Liu."

A slight smile played on Liu Wei's lips as she wiped away Yu Lingxue's tears.

"But...you have such a great presence, and you look so young, not at all like an auntie..."

Yu Lingxue looked closely at Liu Wei in front of her. Judging from her clothes, temperament and appearance, she looked to be around 28 years old, so it was not an exaggeration for her to call her "sister".

"Oh my, what a sweet talker you are, little beauty. Perfect timing, I'm waiting for my son and the others. Tell Auntie, why are you crying here all by yourself? You're all dressed up so nicely, it's a shame to cry."

Liu Wei didn't care about the dirt at all, and sat down next to Yu Lingxue, smiling as she looked at her.

Yu Lingxue shouldn't have been talking about her personal life with a stranger, but Liu Wei gave her a very warm feeling; she experienced her gentleness from their very first meeting...

"My situation is... rather unique. My family is now forcing me to make some decisions I don't like, and... it will affect my entire life..."

"That's it..."

Liu Wei nodded, listening silently to Yu Lingxue's words.

After a while, Liu Wei spoke:

"Well, whatever you do, just do what you think is right."

"That's what I said, but..."

Liu Wei looked up at the sky and whispered:

"Oh dear, my son is the same way. He never follows the plans his father and I have. We've clearly laid out a path for him, but he just won't listen..."

"His addiction to games is something he inherited from his father; his grades have been steadily declining. Fortunately, he's starting to work harder now, all thanks to our precious son... Ever since I knew he was capable of taking care of himself, I haven't forced him to make any decisions..."

After Liu Wei finished speaking, she turned to look at Yu Lingxue, reached out and patted her shoulder, and continued:

“Your family must think you still need their care and help, which is why they are acting this way. So, you just need to prove to them that you are capable of taking care of yourself and that you have the ability to decide your own life. That should change their minds.”

Yu Lingxue pursed her lips, listened to Liu Wei's words, and nodded, as if she understood something...

After a long silence, she looked at Liu Wei and said:

"I understand, Aunt Liu, thank you..."

Yu Lingxue gritted her teeth and struggled to her feet. Liu Wei simply watched with a smile, offering no help.

"Keep going! No matter what you're facing, just do your best and don't rush to prove yourself. Your family will see your abilities one day."

"it is good!"

Yu Lingxue nodded emphatically, a smile playing on her lips. She wiped away the last tear from the corner of her eye and left.

Even her faltering steps couldn't stop her from moving forward.

Liu Wei watched her departing figure, smiling as she saw her off.

"Mom! What are you doing sitting on the floor?"

Just then, a voice came from behind Liu Wei. She turned around and looked.

Then they saw Zhou Heng, Yin Mengran, and Tang Zhi walking back carrying things in their hands.

"Oh... I was just chatting with a young girl."

As Liu Wei prepared to stand up, Yin Mengran quickly ran over and helped her up.

Then, he picked up a bag and handed it to Liu Wei: "Mom, this is for you..."

"Oh! Thank you, sweetheart!"

Liu Wei took the bag with delight, kissed Yin Mengran on the forehead, and looked at her with affection.

Yin Mengran chuckled, scratched her head, and was secretly overjoyed.

"Come on, I'll take you to have some fun. Let's leave these things in the car for now."

"Uh-huh!"

Liu Wei played with the three children all day, and only took them home at dinner time.

After all, I have an exam tomorrow. A day of fun to relax and adjust my mindset is enough. I can't let my mind wander too much, nor can I overwork myself.

Sufficient sleep and rest are also very important.

Good luck on your exams! After the exams, Mom will take you out for a big meal!

Liu Wei spoke to Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran from inside the car.

Zhou Heng nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mom, I'm in good shape. My mock exam results were also very good. I think there shouldn't be any major problems."

"Mom, please drive slowly on your way back. I will take good care of Zhou Heng, so don't worry."

Liu Wei reached out, smiled, and patted Yin Mengran's head. After saying goodbye to the two of them, she left.

Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran watched Liu Wei drive away before preparing to go upstairs.

They returned home carrying several bags to their eyes, only to find the dining table already laden with delicious food.

Liu Wei had already prepared their dinner in advance; otherwise, the two of them would have had to cook dinner themselves.

"Eat up, then I'll study for a bit, and then we'll get some rest..."

Zhou Heng washed his hands and sat down at the dining table, ready to eat.

Just then, Yin Mengran stopped him and said:

"Um...we can't eat all of this. Let's invite Yu Lingxue to eat with us. She lives alone, so it'll save her the trouble of cooking and cleaning up. She has an exam tomorrow."

"Oh, okay, I have no objection."

Zhou Heng put down his chopsticks, nodded, and agreed with Yin Mengran's idea.

Then, Yin Mengran went out, went next door, and knocked on the door:

"Yu Lingxue? Are you home?"

About ten seconds later, the door was opened.

When Yin Mengran saw Yu Lingxue inside the door, the first thing she noticed was her ankle, which was wrapped in gauze...

"Oh...it's the class monitor...what's wrong?"

When Yu Lingxue saw Yin Mengran, her heart skipped a beat, and her hands trembled, but she still managed a smile to calm herself down...

Yin Mengran frowned slightly and pointed to Yu Lingxue's ankle, asking, "What happened to you? Are you injured?"

"Ah... I sprained my ankle today, but it's nothing serious. I put on some medicine, and I should be fine tomorrow."

Yu Lingxue waved her hand, saying it wasn't a serious sprain to begin with, and she should be almost fully recovered after a night's rest.

"Oh, I see... By the way, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Come over to our house and eat with us, so you don't have to cook."

"Huh? Ah... Going to your house... with you... and Zhou Heng... never mind, it's inconvenient, it's inconvenient, I'll just order takeout in a bit..."
