Chapter 143 The Days Without You Are Sad
squeak--

Jiang Yao opened the door and returned home.

She changed into slippers as usual, walked to the sofa and sat down, then took off the bag she was carrying and put it aside.

The entire living room was eerily silent, without a single sound, and the emptiness made people feel a little scary.

Jiang Yao was stunned for a while, then raised her head and looked around.

Her sister left, and Chen Yuan also left. Now she is the only one left in these two suites.

The bustling scene in the past formed a sharp contrast with the quietness at this moment, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.

She just felt terribly panicked, as if a piece of her flesh had been dug out, and she couldn't stop looking left and right... Suddenly she felt that there was no point in looking at anything, and her eyes could not find a place to focus.

Then, the feeling of loss suddenly filled my heart.

Jiang Yao was so panicked that her face turned pale. She held the phone tightly, her head almost buried in her chest, and her eyes kept flickering.

The thought of having to stay here alone for another night and going back to Mingzhu City to see my sister tomorrow made me feel uncomfortable.

She felt a little scared.

Although she lived in this spacious house, she always felt that the house isolated her, or rather, the whole world isolated her.

Loneliness surged in like a tide, from every crack in the shadowed walls.

……

"Sister...Sister? Are you listening?"

Jiang Yao gradually couldn't stand the feeling of being alone, so she sat in the live broadcast room for a long time.

I still called Jiang Ning.

on the phone screen.

After a series of clanging sounds, that gentle and intellectual face flashed out.

Jiang Ning blinked and replied, "I'm here. I was just taking off my mask. What's wrong?"

Looking closely, there were indeed some water stains on her cheeks, which she was wiping with a cleansing towel.

"Sister~~~"

Jiang Yao's one word brought out eighteen different tones, mixed with panic, loss, grievance, and pampering... It made people frown when they heard it. Only someone with her personality could shout like that.

Ningning suddenly got goose bumps all over her body.

"what happened?"

"Didn't I just send Chen Yuan to the car? Why do I feel so sad now that I'm alone?" She lay on the sofa, pouting, her beautiful eyes filled with countless disappointments.

Upon hearing what she said.

Jiang Ning stopped wiping her face.

She snorted softly, and was no longer worried after knowing the situation.

"Huh, you finally understand how I felt that day."

"Yeah, I really feel it... I can't even think about it now. I can't help crying when I think about it. I was clearly mentally prepared before."

Jiang Yao sighed, it was not just Chen Yuan who left.

He seemed to have taken Yaoyao's heart away with him.

She kept nagging like a little shrew, and her sister just responded casually. It was not that she was deliberately ignoring her, but Ningning knew that her sister's emotions would only last for a short time.

Once the shock has subsided, it should feel much better.

Women are emotional creatures after all.

"Sister, what are you doing? I'm so bored and can't find anything to do. Chen Yuan hasn't replied to my messages since he got in the car."

"I'm putting on makeup... The signal on the high-speed train is not good, or he may be taking a break. Wait until he gets off the train."

"Why put on makeup?"

"Of course I'm going to visit relatives and friends. The New Year is coming soon. I have to visit the elders and give them red envelopes. If you don't come back, all these things will fall on me alone. Xiaojun even asked you why you didn't come yesterday..."

Jiang Ning concentrated on drawing her eyebrows and answered perfunctorily.

Since she returned to Mingzhu City, she has not been idle for a single day.

Although her father died early, the family relationships had to be maintained, and as the eldest daughter, she could not avoid dealing with these trivial matters.

Moreover, those people cannot see Jiang Ruxue. As soon as they meet her, they act like enemies.

They would start quarreling after just a few minutes of being together.

Ningning and Yaoyao are the ones caught in the middle.

"It's okay. I'm on a flight tomorrow afternoon, so I'll probably be home in the evening." "Well, I'll wait for you to come back. I've already told grandma that she'll always ask if you're feeling better every time we meet."

"grandmother……"

Jiang Yao was stunned for a moment, and many childhood memories suddenly emerged in her mind.

The two sisters' grandparents were relatively kind. Before the family encountered misfortune, they doted on Jiang Yao the most. After the incident, they were not as warm to her as before because of Jiang Ruxue.

Instead, wait until they are adults.

I miss these two granddaughters who changed their surnames more and more.

The few family loves that Jiang Yao experienced as a child were given by her grandparents.

As for Jiang Ruxue?
She never showed any tenderness as a mother.

Instead, he always brings the bad temper from outside into his home.

The small villa located on the riverside in Mingzhu City seemed to be her world under her control.

This was especially evident before the two sisters reached adulthood.

"By the way, what did Mommy say when you went back? Did she blame you for resigning?" Jiang Yao asked worriedly.

"No, I just followed the routine and did what I do every New Year. She just asked a simple question."

"So what did your sister answer?"

"I just said that I was a little tired of teaching and wanted to do something else."

"Mommy doesn't think you're being bold?"

"I think that's what it means. I feel like there's a lot of criticism waiting for us. I don't think the situation will get any better."

"Ok."

Jiang Yao pursed her lips slightly, her mood falling to the bottom again.

More than two years ago, Jiang Ning came back from abroad and agreed with Yaoyao to bring her to Lanjing on the pretext of treating her illness and relaxing herself. At that time, Yaoyao was so introverted that she would hold on to her sister's clothes tightly whenever she went out.

I went to see many doctors.

It probably means that the psychological problem is serious.

Jiang Ning knew that her sister was just being controlled too severely, and if she continued to stay under Jiang Ruxue's supervision, sooner or later she would become an autistic child who couldn't even speak.

So the two sisters discussed it.

Ningning contacted the university in Lanjing and submitted her job application.

At the same time, I chatted with Jiang Ruxue for a long time.

Only then did he successfully help Jiang Yao escape.

In a flash, time flies by.

It was inevitable that Jiang Yao had to go back, and Jiang Ruxue knew that Jiang Yao's condition had improved.

Jiang Ruxue might not agree to the two of them staying in Lanjing.

Although it was not stated explicitly, a storm seemed to be brewing, and the three women were all holding back on energy.

Just waiting for the day when everything will be revealed.

……

Pearl City.

The video call hangs up.

Jiang Ning, who was sitting in front of the dressing table, put down her phone, still holding an eyebrow brush in her hand.

She held her chin with her hand, her expression somewhat frozen.

Since returning home, I have been busy running around and have hardly any time to breathe.

I face my relatives and friends with a smile every day, but I feel like my face has become a little stiff, as if I'm wearing a mask that can't be taken off.

There is absolutely no joy in being with Jiang Ruxue.

She lowered her brows and couldn't help but recall the scenes when she was with Chen Yuan and living in Lanjing.

Those happy and relaxed times, when we were looking forward to seeing the other person’s face when we opened our eyes... were truly precious.

Jiang Ning put on her makeup and stood up from the stage.

She secretly encouraged herself!
As long as I can get through this period of time and return to Lanjing, I can enjoy a happy relationship with Chen Yuan again!
Thinking of this, Ning Ning couldn't help but clench her little fists tighter.
