Chapter 1010: Demanding Answers

“Why are you being so willful? This isn’t child’s play. Our families are next door neighbors, we have to see each other every day. This makes everything so awkward. Everyone in the neighborhood knows that you two were about to get married, but now you’re saying that you’re not getting married? The Xu family will completely lose face and this twenty-year friendship will also be gone.” Father Xu furrowed his brows. “You grew up with that girl and you two know each other very well. What exactly was so bad that you guys broke up?”

Ning Shu’s lips moved. Just as she was about to speak, the doorbell started rapidly ringing. Mother Xu went to open the door.

The person knocking was Xia Xiaoman’s mother. Xia Xiaoman’s mother dragged Xia Xiaoman inside despite Xia Xiaoman’s protests. She stormed into the living room and immediately started questioning Ning Shu indignantly. “Wenlang, what exactly did you do? Why are you breaking up with Xiaoman?”

Xia Xiaoman felt very ashamed and her face became even paler. She felt really embarrassed. She glanced up at Ning Shu and saw her cold expression, so she tried to pull her mother back outside. “Mom, I was the one that brought up breaking up. It has nothing to do with Big Brother Wenlang. Mom, I’m begging you, let’s go back. I’ll tell you what happened after we go back.”

Xia Xiaoman had only told her mom that she had broken up with Big Brother Wenlang. Mother Xu had a very straightforward personality, so she directly dragged Xia Xiaoman over here. Xia Xiaoman felt really embarrassed. Even though all her suffering was for the sake of protecting the people she cared about, she felt too ashamed to actually talk about it.

She started loathing Chu Xiaoran even more. He had completely messed up her life. She was no longer the pure Xia Xiaoman and no longer had the right to be Big Brother Wenlang’s bride.

“Whatever it is, state it clearly.” Father Xu looked towards Xia Xiaoman. “This isn’t something just between the two of you, it involves both of our families and both of our families’ reputations. What exactly was so bad that you guys had to break up?”

“I…” Xia Xiaoman couldn’t bring herself to talk about her suffering, so her tears just overflowed. She looked like she was in extreme pain.

Mother Xu frowned. She couldn’t really stand how Xia Xiaoman kept crying at every little thing. Xia Xiaoman didn’t used to be like this.

All Ning Shu could say that the current Xia Xiaoman had already activated SM female lead mode. She was hurt by the SM from the male lead, and she also hurt herself.

In any case, the current Xia Xiaoman seemed to be under continuous hypnosis of: I’m so pitiful, it hurts so much, it’s so painful.

Ning Shu said, “We have broken up. We broke up a while ago.”

“Why? Xu Wenlang, you shouldn’t be never satisfied with what you have. Our family’s Xiaoman has been following you for so many years, how can you dump her just like this? Don’t you think you’re being too much?” said Xia Xiaoman’s mother angrily.

“Our family’s Xiaoman doesn’t have to marry you, but shouldn’t you at least give a reason for breaking up? How can you fling away our Xiaoman just like this? I won’t agree to this. Old Xu, our families have been friends so for many years. You guys can’t do something this heartless.” Xia Xiaoman’s mother spoke like an exploding chain of firecrackers, firing off nonstop complaints.

Xia Xiaoman’s face turned bright red as more tears overflowed.

When Ning Shu saw this, she knew that from the moment on, there was no longer any friendship left between the Xu family and the Xia family. They could no longer be so close that they were like a family.

“I wasn’t the one that brought up breaking up. I don’t even know the reason for it,” replied Ning Shu mildly. “I actually wanted to ask why Xiaoman wanted to break up with me?”

Xia Xiaoman’s mother frowned and immediately refuted, “Xiaoman’s a timid child. There’s no way she would bring up breaking up!”

Xia Xiaoman actually wasn’t someone with much opinion. This fact was obvious from how Chu Xiaoran had been able to threaten her with photos. As for what Mother Xia said about Xia Xiaoman being timid, Ning Shu could only scoff. There was no way Xia Xiaoman was timid when she was able to make this kind of decision between the two families’ back.

She was stupid and delusionally thought that she had sacrificed a lot. She had never considered what the two families would have to face because of her choice and Xu Wenlang had even ended up dying because of her.

“Xiaoman, what’s going on? You were the one that brought up breaking up?” asked Mother Xia after she recovered from the shock.

Xia Xiaoman bit her lips hard and nodded with a bleak expression.
