Chapter 456 - 456 Biased

456 Biased

When Xu Ling heard this, she sneered and said, “Yu Yan, you’re really ungrateful. If it weren’t for the half a handful of rice you look down on now, you might have starved to death! We saved your life, understand? Do you think you can return the favor just by buying some expensive things?”

Yu Yan retorted bluntly, “Never expect the rewards when helping someone out. Aren’t you blackmailing me now?”

Xu Ling looked as if she had heard a joke. “Never expect the rewards when helping someone out? Isn’t it a little funny to hear this from the mouth of someone who received the favor? When you’re rich, you buy things for everyone to eat as repayment?”

When everyone heard Yu Yan’s words, their expressions darkened.

When they donated rice, they didn’t think of asking Yu Yan to repay them. They only did it on account of the fact that everyone was away from home and that they should support each other.

Although everyone disliked Yu Yan, her life was in danger. Moreover, the team leader had already spoken.

However, putting aside the fact that Yu Yan and Xu Ling were criticizing each other, Yu Yan’s mocking attitude towards them really disappointed them.

Tian Jing’s expression darkened as she reprimanded loudly, “Alright! Stop arguing, or else get out!”

Seeing that their team leader was angry, Yu Yan and Xu Ling stopped, but they still glared at each other fiercely.

The originally festive atmosphere instantly became a little stiff. Everyone continued to eat the veggies silently.

Seeing this, Wen Jiang smiled and suggested that they perform in the hall to celebrate the new year together like in previous years. This suggestion was agreed upon by everyone. There were many intellectuals who could sing and dance. They didn’t need to prepare in advance and could perform on stage directly.

The atmosphere returned to normal. After dinner, everyone washed up together. The people on the stage were performing, and the people below the stage were weaving bamboo baskets. Everyone was smiling, and the atmosphere was peaceful.

As Yu Yan watched the lively scene in front of her, she felt that she was a little out of place, so she didn’t want to stay any longer. She stood up and returned to her room.

When Yao Nian saw this, he wanted to chase after her, but when he thought of Yu Yan’s moodiness recently, he gave up. He was afraid that he would get in trouble later, so he felt that it was better to watch the performance downstairs.

Yu Yan took out the letter she had gone to collect in the afternoon. The person who had sent the letter was her adoptive parents. There was also a situation note in the envelope. Li Xin had found an agency to write this. With this certificate, Yu Yan could find the village to write a certificate and return to the city for the new year.

Yu Hai and Li Xin mentioned in their letter that because Yu Xi was still recovering this year, the supervisor had specifically approved for him to return to the team after the new year. They hoped that Yu Yan could go home early this year so that their family of four could celebrate the new year.

Yu Xi had been a soldier for ten years, and this was the second time he had celebrated the new year at home, so Yu Hai and Li Xin were looking forward to this year’s Spring Festival.

When Yu Yan saw these words, a hint of hatred appeared on her face as she muttered, “I won’t let you guys get what you guys want. Reunion… I won’t go back!”

Thinking of her stomachache from starvation some time ago, Yu Yan felt that her adoptive parents were not worthy of asking her to go back to celebrate the new year!

It was all Yu Xi’s fault! Something just had to happen to him at that time.

Her adoptive parents were so biased now! Yu Xi was going home to celebrate the new year, so they asked her to go home early. Why?

Since they went to the Yu family to adopt her back then, why didn’t they cherish her?!

Thinking of how she had already been mocked by all the intellectuals because she had borrowed money, Yu Yan hated her adoptive parents for only caring about their biological son and not her.

Performing surgery was the doctor’s business, and they couldn’t help. If she was in trouble, they could have helped, but didn’t help!

Moreover, if they had sent her money as usual, she wouldn’t have ended up in this state. When she thought of how her adoptive mother wanted to force her to return to the city and control her, Yu Yan felt even more resentful.

Yu Yan’s grip on the letter slowly tightened until the letter was torn.

Yu Yan resented her adoptive parents, but she didn’t stop replying.

Yu Yan knew very well that although she was going against her adoptive parents, thinking of a way to get more money from them was more important!

They owed her this!
