Chapter 165: Chapter 165 The Past of the Fan Family

"How can we do that? We aren’t familiar with this area at all. You just found us some random place—who knows who has lived there before? I’m not comfortable with it."

Fan Yao was getting anxious. She had to stick with Fan Qing, no matter what.

Now, trying to shake her off was completely out of the question.

"You don’t need to react like that. We had an agreement that I would find you a place, and I’ve done all that I can."

"If you’re not willing, then you can just go with him!"

Fan Qing pointed at Li Tianyu, looking as if all her energy had been drained.

Zhang Kaiyang steadied her shoulders, offering silent comfort.

Ye Mianmian didn’t want them to stay either. More people meant more conflicts.

And besides, it made everything inconvenient.

"This house isn’t that great either. The people who lived here before all died, and we’re fine, aren’t we? There’s nothing to worry about."

Fan Yao was displeased and wanted to say more, but Li Tianyu had already understood the situation.

"Okay, we’ll do as you say. Thank you for bringing me and Yaoyao out."

Even though Fan Yao didn’t understand, she chose to stay silent.

Zhang Kaiyang thought of his family’s previous home, not knowing what the situation there was now.

"Then let’s go, let’s check out the ninth floor."

With those words, Jhiang Yuan also grasped the deeper meaning and followed them down.

The place had been forcefully occupied before, but now, it was empty—though the mess inside was extreme.

Poor thing, his house, now he had no choice but to let it go.

"From now on, you two will live here. A two-bedroom apartment, just right for you to sleep in!"

With that, he handed over a set of keys to them.

"But we don’t have anything. If we keep going like this, we’ll starve to death."

"I will give you some food. Take advantage of these next couple days while it isn’t snowing to go out and gather some supplies.

It’s so cold, you should at least stockpile some wood."

As soon as Zhang Kaiyang finished speaking, Fan Qing took over the conversation.

"There’s only so much we can do. The rest is up to you. I won’t be able to help you after this."

They left the two behind with reluctance, but there was no choice.

Zhang Kaiyang did not break his promise and brought them some simple food, even moving a gas canister over for them.

Some pots and pans left by the previous group meant there was no need for more deliveries.

Even though Jhiang Yuan didn’t fully agree, she didn’t say anything.

Everyone makes their own choices, and she can’t control that.

Gathered in the living room of apartment 2002, Grandma Ye started making rice wine soup dumplings for everyone.

It was the first time Fan Qing formally spoke with everyone, and she seemed a bit nervous.

"Sorry for the trouble. From now on, no one needs to worry about Fan Yao. Pretend you don’t know her."

Zhang Kaiyang also had a lot of questions and didn’t shy away from asking them in front of the trio.

After all, they had spent the day together, and their lives could have been at risk.

"Qingqing, what exactly is going on with you three?"

Fan Qing looked at Zhang Kaiyang, finding it difficult to speak, but she still divulged.

"After we graduated, I went on an internship, and you were in grad school, oblivious to the hard work of a job.

I was ostracized by the older employees at my workplace.

That’s when Li Tianyu came into the picture, and later we started dating.

The second year after graduation, which was your second year of grad school, my cousin came to West City looking for a job.

It was only natural that she ended up staying with me, and one day when Li Tianyu came to visit, the two of them met.

As for when they got together behind my back, I only found out about it once we got to the aid center."

It turned out that Li Tianyu had been dating Fan Qing before, but later felt she was too uninteresting.

She got together with Fan Yao, those two are really shameless.

During the time of the sweltering heat at home, Li Tianyu used the excuse that his lease was up and the landlord wouldn’t renew, so he moved in with Qingqing.

Even though he was sleeping on the couch, they were flirting with each other all day long.

She actually didn’t notice, and they even schemed to have her foot the bill for their food and drink.

Later, when they ended up at the relief center, it turned out that Qingqing really had nothing left, and that’s when her true colors showed.

She was there all alone, with no one to rely on, so she had no choice but to swallow her anger and put up with it.

Zhang Kaiyang felt very sad when he heard it, and Jhiang Yuan thought he would be angry.

But, if it were just a cousin, then it might have been okay.

Now that the three of them have such a messy relationship, she surprisingly still wants to take these two out, really don’t know what she was thinking.

"I see you seem to be pretty kind to Fan Yao?"

Qingqing laughed at herself mockingly, feeling almost speechless.

"My dad took over my Grandpa’s job at the unit back in our small county town.

That was how it was with their generation, when a worker got old, someone in their family could take their place.

Just then, my dad was getting involved with my mom, and Grandpa demanded he have a formal job.

So the position was given to my dad; it was initially set for my eldest uncle.

Therefore, all these years, my dad has always felt that he’d stolen my uncle’s life, and he’s been wholeheartedly devoted to their family.

As for Fan Yao, there was this one time we all went ice skating.

I fell into an ice hole, and she was the one who rescued me."

With that said, Jhiang Yuan understood.

Falling into an ice hole, if not rescued in time, being swept away meant death.

"But these years, our family has basically been repaying favors.

From big things like houses and cars to the tuition fees for her and her brother’s schooling, to small things like the food supplies at home—it was all paid for by us.

The moment she showed weakness, we would be the ones to suffer.

I’ve had enough of her, too, and this time will be the last time."

Unexpectedly, there was such a hidden story.

It seems Qingqing has had enough as well.

"That’s also why I insisted on going to a university far away, but she still followed me.

Ever since we were kids, she’s wanted everything that was mine!"

As she spoke, she even laughed at herself mockingly.

You can tell from Fan Yao’s character that she’s not a good person—snatching away her own sister’s husband, she’s quite a piece of work.

"It’s okay now, Qingqing. From now on, we won’t deal with them anymore, let them fend for themselves."

After clarifying the causes and consequences, Song Yi and Jhiang Yuan took their leave.

After all, they probably had a lot of things to say with an ex-boyfriend and ex-girlfriend, respectively.

They didn’t want to disturb them any further, and it was also getting late.

Jhiang Yuan went home and exchanged a few words with her parents, then she went to rest.

Qin Yue had left some food for her, but she wasn’t hungry anymore, so Jhiang Xingzhi told her to go to bed.

After a day of hustle, she was tired.

Jhiang Yuan tidied up briefly, then tiptoed into bed, careful not to wake the already sleeping Xiao Nuan.

Now, the things at home were basically settled.

All that remained was to wait quietly for the blizzard to come. Her previous self had never lived until this moment.

Now that she thought about it, it was quite poignant.

She also wondered whether Bai Mengmeng had succeeded in taking revenge, and whether the mother and son from the Xia Family were still alive.

She needed to settle all past grudges before the blizzard.

She also had to visit Building 9, to give herself and her daughter closure!
