Chapter 290: Depression Strikes

emed to freeze at that moment."Hanchuan ge, what are you saying I don't understand." Ran asked softly, her eyes flickering.He lowered his head to smooth out the slightly wrinkled suit jacket, his shor...As He Hanchuan had expected, Old Master He was very displeased with the Jiang family's actions. He arranged for people to leak a lot of black material about the Jiang Group. It wasn't until Old Master Jiang personally intervened to make peace and promised certain benefits that relations between the two families were restored.

In the face of absolute interests, there are no eternal enemies, nor absolute friends.

Regarding the matter of He Hanchuan coming to the house, Xiang Yu was very dissatisfied. His plaster cast had already been removed, and he rolled up his sleeves to fight He Hanchuan, but in the end, he was pulled apart by Lin Nalu.

"Ah Yu, don't cause trouble. Han Chuan did those things before because he was being forced. You can't blame him!" Xiang Jianguo rebuked.

Xiang Yu let out a heavy hum, but his words were addressed to He Hanchuan, "You can't even protect your own woman, what kind of man are you!"

"Thank you, ge, for giving me Hoshino. I promise to take good care of her." He Hanchuan held onto Hoshino's hand and said solemnly.

"Damn, who the hell calls you '哥' Who are you to me How can you be so shameless!" Xiang Yu's eyes widened, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "Besides, who said anyone was willing to give Wanwan to you What utter bull**!"

He was so angry that he even started swearing, not even noticing when Lin Nalu glared at him.

"Calling her 'my woman', isn't that admitting that Hoshimachi Suisei is mine, brother" He Hanchuan pulled at the corner of his lips lightly, emphasizing the last word.

Xiang Yu's hair stood on end, his face contorted in a look of utter disbelief and anger. He was so furious that he couldn't even speak for a long time, his handsome face flushed red.

"...," Xiang Wan pursed her lips and whispered, "Don't tease my brother."

He Hanchuan squeezed the palm of her hand, nonchalantly saying, "I'm trying to ease the tension between me and my brother-in-law."

Xiang Yu watched his little movements, his eyes almost popping out. He walked up with a grim face, forcefully pushing himself between the two, shoving He Hanchuan to the back.

"Ling Na-lu walked beside him, wiping his husband's butt as usual. She said, "… Xiang Yu still has some resentment towards He Zong for what he did before. He’s a stubborn person, don’t take it too seriously.”

He Jianchuan's gaze remained fixed on Xiang Wan ahead, upon hearing this, he merely replied with a light tone, "Just call me He Jianchuan, no need to be so polite. As for my brother, he only acts this way because he cares about Xiang Wan, I'm very happy about that."

Lin Nalu heard the word "sister-in-law" and smiled with a complex expression, understanding Yu Xiang's feelings a little better.

To get away from the annoying He Hanchuan, Xiang Yu purposely quickened his pace, leading Xiang Wan into her previous room.

The room was exactly the same as it had been two years ago, even her other dress from her birthday party that had been abandoned on the bed, as if she had never left at all.

"Mom used to always blame you for what happened to Jiang Qingran, and she was upset because Dad hit you. But from the beginning to the end, she wanted you to come back. After you left, Mom personally cleaned your room every day. If she got really caught up in it, she would clean it several times a day. Then she'd sit on the bed and just stare for hours." Xiang Yu's voice was much lower than usual.

向晚 hung her head, slowly stroking the things in the room, a dull ache in her heart.

The things in the room were better preserved than she was, clearly put together with care.

"Mom... she had depression for a while, and it took some treatment to get better. Then it came back again recently, and I saw her secretly taking medication."

"Wanwan, I'm not a smart person, but I also know what you're worried about. You don't want to get closer to Mom again, afraid she'll be used by Dad and force you to do things you hate. But... well... I don't even know how to say it!" Xiangyu tugged at his hair in frustration.

Depression!

Towards Evening stared at him in shock, her lips and fingers trembling slightly, her face suddenly paling. "Depression...relapse Why didn't you tell me"

The last two words were spoken with great difficulty, almost squeezed out from the depths of his throat.

Toward Yu hummed in response, saying nothing more. He merely frowned and shoved his hand into his hair, tugging at the recently dyed black strands as if to appear composed.

That's the default.

向晚's face turned pale as she leaned against the wall, her heart feeling like it was being gripped by an invisible hand. It was heavy, suffocating, and unbearable.

向宇 remained silent, and the entire room was deathly quiet. This silence, heavy as a thousand pounds, pressed down on Xiang Wan's nerves.

Click.

Suddenly, a noise came from the room door, breaking the silence.

"Daddy~ pulling on your hair will make you bald~"

"Huh~Hmm~"

The twins reached the door. The older sister, with her hands on her hips and eyes narrowed, accused him. The younger brother laughed so hard his eyes disappeared, nodding like a chick pecking at grain.

Agree.

Xiang Yu turned his head and scolded the twins. The elder sister made a face at him and, turning her back, wiggled her little butt and ran away. The younger brother followed suit, but his short legs were not as nimble as his sister's. He ran two steps and fell down, then got up by wriggling his bottom and shakily went to chase after his sister.

"They're like my own kind, if someone treated me like that, I wouldn't let them off easy!" Xiang Yu had a look of helplessness and fondness on his face, not a hint of anger.

Is this how all parents are

A while ago I couldn't forgive my mom, wasn't she just too heartless

"Hánchuān, this is it." At that moment, Xiàng Jiàn Guó led Hé Hánchuān into her line of sight. "Everything in the room and the furnishings are all arranged according to Wǎnwǎn's preferences. If you don't like it, you can change it. To…"

Xiang Yu glared at the two of them, cutting him off directly, "This is Wanwan's room, everything of course follows her preferences. If He Hanchuan doesn't like it, just get out, what right does he have to change Wanwan's room!"

"Xiang Yu!" At the sight of Xiang Yu charging at He Hanchuan three times, Xiang Jianguo's face turned ashen.

Xiang Yu crossed his arms and leaned against the wall, glancing at him sideways. "What's wrong Think I speak harshly Listen, I'm not like you. You can sell your daughter for glory, but I can't sell my sister!"

"What utter nonsense!" Xiang Jianguo's face flushed red when he was confronted like this in front of He Hanchuan. "I've taught you etiquette for half a month, all for nothing!"

Toward Yu let out a cold snort.

Toward Jian Guo's direction, there was a hint of displeasure in his voice. “With your abilities, don't even think about surpassing Qing Ran, you're not even as good as Qi Feng!”

The father and son stood face to face, neither willing to yield. While Jingyun seemed to have grown accustomed to such a scene, she kept watching Xiang Wan cautiously, afraid that she might be displeased with the room.

Towards the end, seeing her swollen eyes and this careful demeanor, she opened her mouth but didn't make a sound. Only a prickling sensation filled the corners of her eyes.
