The cannon fodder female supporting role in the misplaced life

Xu Yingying looked at Xu Junhua. Her voice, as if emanating from the depths of the underworld, responded coldly and mercilessly, "Junhua, I'm sure you remember everything that happened in the past clearly. Back then, Xinyi suddenly disappeared without a trace. The reason behind this was inextricably linked to your second sister, and I'm afraid no one can easily erase this memory! I really don't want to talk about this matter any further. From now on, if anything involves Xu Lanlan, I'm sorry, but I really can't help you in any way."

Xu's mother, standing nearby, was stunned upon hearing this. She could never have imagined that, even after so long, Xu Yingying still hadn't let it go. Her eyes widened in disbelief, tinged with a hint of resentment, as she sternly demanded, "Can't you forgive your sister? It was just such a trivial matter. How could it be so ingrained in your mind?"

Xu Yingying didn't even look at her mother, but only looked down at her little son in her arms. With a faint smile on her face, she said softly, "Back then, when Xinyi got into trouble, do you still remember what you said to me? Have you forgotten all those words?"

Xu's mother's thoughts were instantly drawn back to the night Lin Xinyi disappeared. That night, the darkness was as dark as ink, and the entire city seemed shrouded in a thick haze. Upon learning of Lin Xinyi's disappearance, she rushed to the home of her eldest daughter, Xu Yingying, with a frantic heart. As she opened the door, she saw her eldest daughter collapsed on the ground. At that moment, Xu's mother's heart suddenly tightened.

She hurriedly helped her eldest daughter up and placed her on the bed, then anxiously talked to Mr. Lin who had arrived shortly afterwards. However, what Xu's mother never expected was that Xu Yingying, who seemed unconscious, had actually woken up long ago, and her entire conversation had been heard by Xu Yingying.

At this moment, Xu Yingying stared intently at her mother's face, which was gradually becoming solemn, and continued, "Since you are not here to visit the children today, please go back."

Xu Junhua, standing nearby, stared at his eldest sister in astonishment. He had never imagined that, even now, she would still be so hung up on the matter of the second sister, and it seemed she couldn't let it go. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He really wanted to speak up and explain on the second sister's behalf, but when the words came to his lips, he hesitated. The eldest sister's attitude was now completely resolute, like an insurmountable wall, difficult for anyone to shake. He knew that in this situation, even if he tried his best to persuade her, it would probably be in vain.

Xu Junhua, feeling completely helpless, could only cautiously reach out and gently tug at his mother's sleeve. Then, lowering his voice, he leaned close to his mother's ear and whispered, "Mom, why don't we go back first? Seeing how Eldest Sister is now, I don't think she'll be able to calm down anytime soon. Why don't we wait a couple of days until Eldest Sister is in a better mood and then come visit her and the children. That might help."

After hearing her son's words, Xu's mother turned her gaze to her eldest daughter, who had a resolute expression on her face and refused to negotiate. She knew that anything she said at this moment would be superfluous. So she nodded slightly, agreeing with her son's proposal, and then said to Xu Yingying with a slightly helpless tone, "Okay, Yingying, Mom knows you're angry, but no matter what, we're still a family. When you've calmed down a few days, we'll come back to see you and the children."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu's mother slowly turned around, her steps seeming a bit heavy. Xu Junhua hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to hold his mother's arm. In this way, the mother and son snuggled together and walked towards the door without saying a word. Xu Yingying's cold words came from behind: "It's okay, don't come. I can live well with the children by myself, don't worry about it! And you, brother, if some people can't see the situation in front of them, there's no need to worry so much about them!"

Xu's mother and Xu Junhua left shortly after. Meanwhile, Lin Weiye, busy with company matters, had hurried out early this morning to attend to work. However, just as he entered the house, before he had a chance to rest, Old Man Lin eagerly approached him with news—his mother-in-law and her brother had come to visit.

Upon hearing this, Lin Weiye nodded slightly to indicate that he understood, and then he started walking towards where Xu Yingying was. When he arrived at the room, he saw Xu Yingying sitting there safely, concentrating on caring for her young child. Seeing this, Lin Weiye slowly walked to her side and asked softly, "I heard that my mother-in-law is here?"

In response to her husband, Lin Weiye's question, Xu Yingying's delicate face remained as calm as a still pool, without a single ripple. She nodded, her movements so gentle and almost imperceptible, and replied in a tone so flat and emotionless, "Well, they left soon after arriving." Her voice flowed like a clear mountain stream, without a single ups and downs, as if this were just a trivial moment in life.

Lin Weiye frowned slightly and asked with concern, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Xu Yingying pursed her lips slightly and slowly said, "They came here this time because of Xu Lanlan's matter."

Hearing this, Lin Weiye's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked, "Could it be that they want you to help?"

Xu Yingying nodded without hesitation and replied, "Yes, but I have already turned them down."

Lin Weiye breathed a sigh of relief and comforted his wife, "It's okay. Even though I don't know exactly how Xu Lanlan disappeared, I have a rough idea of who might be involved. If necessary, I can send someone to investigate."

However, at this moment, Xu Yingying, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly raised her eyes and shot Lin Weiye a look of doubt. Then, she opened her red lips and said something that caught him off guard: "Why did you keep shaking your head when I asked you yesterday?"

Lin Weiye couldn't help but look embarrassed when his wife questioned him like this. He scratched his head and explained, "At that time, I really didn't know much about Xu Lanlan's disappearance. I can't give you a definite answer, but I do have some speculations."
