Chapter 231 Cannot Trust Her
At this moment, Song Tianxiang simply couldn’t believe his ears!
“What did you say? You… you and Jiang Yibo have no chance anymore? What does that mean?” Song Tianxiang asked.
“Do you even need to ask? It’s obvious she doesn’t want to help us, otherwise why would she make up such a lame excuse?” Song Yili said with a cold smile.
“Yili, stop talking nonsense. No matter what, Xuejiao is your sister. Is this how you talk to your sister?” Song Tianxiang scolded sternly.
“Give it a rest, stop pretending. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. Right now, you must be even angrier than I am,” Song Yili said with a cold smile. “Your own daughter is beyond your control, how does that feel?”
“Nonsense! What kind of attitude is this?” Song Tianxiang slammed the coffee table, extremely dissatisfied with his son’s attitude!
“My attitude is none of your business. I suggest you worry about your daughter’s attitude instead.” Song Yili’s mindset had been completely twisted by hatred, and he coldly laughed: “She’s even making up such excuses just so the Jiang family won’t look down on her, how ridiculous!”
Song Tianxiang obviously didn’t quite believe his daughter’s words either, because they all knew very well what kind of determination Song Xuejiao had before. He had thought his daughter was quite sensible, but now it seemed he had expected too much.
“It’s true… he and I, we’re ultimately impossible.” Song Xuejiao shook her head. Although there had been no substantial relationship between her and Jiang Yibo, the sudden end of so many years of romance still made her feel terrible.
“Impossible, why impossible?” Song Yili sneered: “If you don’t give me a good reason today, then I’ll assume you’re making it all up!”
Song Xuejiao looked at her brother, deep disappointment flashing in her eyes.
At her most difficult and heartbreaking moment, her brother and father didn’t care about her, not even offering a single word of comfort, but instead constantly questioning her, constantly reprimanding her.
Song Xuejiao bit her lip, wanting to turn and leave, but after all, they were her family, and she didn’t want to create deeper misunderstandings at this moment.
“I ran into Jiang Yibo last night, he was being intimate with a woman.” Song Xuejiao said flatly, her voice containing a kind of bitterness.
As soon as she finished speaking, Song Yili sneered: “Does my brother-in-law know you’re slandering him like this?”
“Slander? Why is it slander?” Song Xuejiao was telling the truth, but in Song Yili’s eyes, it was still a fabricated lie.
“No matter what I say, you won’t believe me, right?” At this moment, Song Xuejiao finally realized her brother’s thoughts. Let alone that she was already telling the truth, even if she spoke with the eloquence of a thousand flowers, she couldn’t make Song Yili believe her!
How could her brother have become like this!
“Of course.” Song Yili coldly admitted his thoughts, but then changed his tone: “However, if you care about the Song family, if you don’t want to stand by and watch the Song family collapse, you might as well go beg Jiang Yibo. I don’t believe that if you plead with him, he would remain unmoved?”
Looking at her unfamiliar brother, hearing these emotionless words, Song Xuejiao felt a layer of ice slowly covering her heart.
Did they really not consider her feelings at all? Couldn’t they imagine how upset she was after experiencing something like this?
Song Tianxiang thought for a moment and said: “Yili makes sense. Xuejiao, if Jiang Yibo really did cheat, then it’s his fault, but have you considered that he just made a mistake that every man would make? To marry into the Jiang family, you have to pretend nothing happened.”
“Dad, what do you mean by that?” The ice layer over Song Xuejiao’s heart was gradually becoming solid ice: “What do you mean by ‘a mistake every man would make’? What do you mean I ‘have to pretend nothing happened’? Why must I be the one to swallow my pride? Why am I always the one who has to forgive others’ mistakes? Why don’t you care about my feelings at all? Why? Why?”
Song Xuejiao expressed her depressed feelings while wiping away tears.
In all those past years, perhaps all her tears combined weren’t as many as she shed today!
Song Yili snorted coldly, turning away in disdain. Song Tianxiang also raised his voice: “Xuejiao, why don’t you understand what I mean? Every relationship and marriage encounters difficulties, these are all temporary. Forget about last night, you can go back to how things were before. Don’t you want to marry into the Jiang family? If you keep thinking about this, how can you live happily with Jiang Yibo?”
“Live happily together?” Song Xuejiao laughed, this tear-stained laugh looking particularly desolate: “Can I still live with him? That’s simply impossible!”
“You haven’t tried, how do you know it’s impossible?” Song Yili laughed coldly: “I’ve slept with countless women, does that mean none of them would marry me?”
“Yili, how can you talk like that!” Although Song Xuejiao knew her brother was usually unruly, she never imagined he could so brazenly say such extremely shameful words, truly shameless to the extreme.
“Why can’t I talk like that? How I want to be is none of your business.” Song Yili’s face was full of mockery.
“Xuejiao, this concerns your lifelong happiness, you mustn’t be impulsive!” Song Tianxiang said: “Behind closed doors, there’s nothing a couple can’t discuss, nothing that can’t be resolved! Besides, right now our Song family is in a precarious situation…”
Song Tianxiang’s words were directly interrupted by Song Xuejiao: “The Song family, the Song family, in your eyes, sacrificing me to save the family is perfectly justified, isn’t it!”
Song Tianxiang naturally wouldn’t admit this, he said coldly: “I don’t have such thoughts.”
“But that’s exactly what you’re doing!” Song Xuejiao’s voice was already hoarse: “But you don’t know Jiang Yibo’s character, even if I beg him for help, he won’t help!”
“Then sleep with him!” Song Yili’s face was full of ferocity!
“What?” Song Xuejiao could hardly believe her ears!
“If he doesn’t agree, let him sleep with you, see if he still refuses to acknowledge you after he pulls up his pants!” Song Yili growled, his eyes bloodshot!
Even Song Tianxiang seemed to be stunned by his son’s words!
“Say that again!” Song Xuejiao trembled with anger!
“I said, stick your ass up for him to take!” Song Yili grinned viciously, hysterical, looking almost insane!
“Slap!”
Song Xuejiao strode up to Song Yili and slapped him across the face!
“Xuejiao, Xuejiao, Yili is just blinded by hatred, please don’t take it to heart!” Song Tianxiang hurried to mediate.
Seeing her father’s actions, hearing his words, Song Xuejiao was utterly disappointed!
Perhaps, in their eyes, they only had this precious son, while her existence was merely to marry into the Jiang family, to bring glory to the Song family!
“From now on, the Song family’s affairs have nothing to do with me!” After saying this, she walked past Song Yili and left without looking back!
…
Among the employees at the Tianxiang Group headquarters, not many recognized Song Xuejiao. They watched this beautiful woman with tears on her face walk out of the elevator, all speculating about what grievances she had suffered.
Song Xuejiao’s steps were unusually firm. The encounter upstairs had temporarily made her determined to leave the Song family.
Of course, even if temporary, it was enough to show that the Song father and son had thoroughly broken their daughter’s heart.
Song Xuejiao walked to the entrance of Tianxiang Group and suddenly realized she had nowhere to go.
Although her mother Hu Qinghuan was still at home, Song Xuejiao didn’t want to return to that so-called home at all.
Return to the capital?
Just thinking about how Jiang Yibo and that sexy woman were openly intimate on the terrace last night made Song Xuejiao feel sick.
The house in the capital was bought by Jiang Yibo, and the company was also under his name. Since she had decided to break up with him completely, she might as well make a clean break—she wouldn’t go back, nor would she miss this heartless guy anymore.
In fact, Song Xuejiao thought that if she didn’t contact him from now on, this young master of the Jiang family probably wouldn’t contact her for the rest of his life.
In this vast world, there was no place for her to stay. Her life was truly a failure, she thought self-mockingly.
The late spring and early summer wind already carried some warmth, but blowing on Song Xuejiao’s face, it made her feel very cold.
This coldness came from within. Whenever she thought of Song Yili’s ferocious face just now, whenever she thought of her father trying to persuade her to reconcile with Jiang Yibo, Song Xuejiao’s heart filled with disgust.
In hindsight, it would have been better not to come at all, at least she wouldn’t have discovered so many ugly truths.
Just as Song Xuejiao stood at the entrance of Tianxiang Group, looking at the endless traffic with nowhere to go, a golden Passat slowly drove up and stopped in front of her.
The driver’s door opened, and Su Rui stepped out.
Song Xuejiao wasn’t surprised why Su Rui chose to appear at this moment. She said coldly: “Are you here to laugh at me?”
“I don’t enjoy laughing at others. If you don’t know where to go, why not get in my car?” Su Rui said with a smile. Just by looking at Song Xuejiao’s expression, he could imagine what she had just gone through.
In fact, it could be said that Song Xuejiao’s current predicament was entirely created by Su Rui.
“Get in your car? Where can you take me?” Song Xuejiao’s voice was cold, the kind of cold that chills to the bone.
“Just drive around. At least, I won’t force you to reconcile with Jiang Yibo,” Su Rui said lightly.
“How do you know what just happened?”
Su Rui’s words undoubtedly showed that he was very clear about what the Song father and son had done to Song Xuejiao!
But after Song Xuejiao asked this question, she shook her head bitterly: “You understand human nature so thoroughly, you could guess it even if you tried.”
“Indeed, I was just guessing.” Su Rui had already opened the passenger door: “Some things cannot be washed away by time, and before that happens, what we need to do is not torture ourselves.”
Song Xuejiao’s eyes flickered slightly, and then she got into the car.
Song Yili and Song Tianxiang stood at the entrance of the group, watching Song Xuejiao leave in Su Rui’s car, their expressions complex.
“I told you, she can’t be trusted! Colluding with the enemy! I can only rely on myself!” Song Yili spat, the hatred in his eyes growing more intense!
