Chapter 3894 Reflection
Yan Xun clung tightly to Zhou Tianhao's arm, refusing to let go even when he tried to pull his hand away several times. Because they were so close, she overheard the two older women from the Zhou family scolding Zhou Tianhao.

Even though it had been almost half a year since the first month of the lunar calendar, Yan Xun still remembered the people Zhou Tianhao called "Grandma Man" and "Grandma Aunt," and could even match them up.

The woman Zhou Tianhao called "Grandma Man" was the wife of Zhou Village Chief, who was essentially the head of the Zhou family.

The person Zhou Tianhao calls "Grandma" is Le Yun's maternal grandmother.

Those two elderly women were highly respected in the Zhou family. They, along with Zhou Tianhao's grandmother, were the most respected elders in the Zhou family by Yue Yun.

Yan Xun remembered that when she went to the homes of Le Jia and Zhou Tianhao's two elders for dinner during the first month of the lunar calendar, the two female elders were very kind to her.

Now, even because of her birth date and time, Zhou Tianhao's two elders spoke of her with extreme disgust, calling her two-faced and a liar.

The two old people even scolded Zhou Tianhao for being blind to have chosen a girlfriend like her, making her sound worthless.

Hearing the Zhou family elders' cursing, Yan Xun felt both ashamed and angry. She had just used a fake birth chart to fool them. Although it was a bit disgusting, it wasn't some heinous crime. Why did it sound like she had dug up the Zhou family's ancestral graves? The Zhou family members were all so vicious.

Yan Xun was furious at the Zhou family's reaction to her minor mistake, and wanted to yell back on the spot.

However, despite her anger, she wasn't blinded by rage and knew she couldn't curse him unless she was prepared to break up with Zhou Tianhao.

She wasn't planning on breaking up.

No matter how angry you are, you have to hold it in.

She swallowed her anger and listened to the barrage of insults, feeling so frustrated that her chest felt like it was about to explode. Just as she was about to throw a tantrum at Zhou Tianhao as usual, she suddenly saw Zhou Tianhao tremblingly find "Zhou Qiufeng's" number.

Upon seeing Zhou Tianhao's name in his phone book, Yan Xun's pupils contracted, as if she had been doused with cold water, and her anger instantly subsided.

Zhou Qiufeng is Zhou Tianhao's cousin and the mother of Leyun's younger brother!
It was evident from the meal at the Le family's house during the first month of the lunar calendar that Le Yun had a very good relationship with her stepmother, feeling as close as a biological mother and daughter.

If we're really talking about the weight of Zhou's relatives and friends, Zhou Tianhao, his cousin, is the most important.

Zhou Tianhao's grandparents might not listen to what others say, but if Zhou Qiufeng speaks, it's 90% effective.

This aunt of the Zhou family holds a pivotal position among the Zhou family's relatives and friends. Offending her is tantamount to offending Yue Yun.

Yan Xun immediately tensed up.

When Zhou Tianhao dialed the number, he was terrified that his aunt had already blocked him.

He was lucky; his aunt didn't block him.

But before he could even speak after the call connected, his aunt's disappointed voice came through the phone—"Tianhao, you and your girlfriend have really gone too far this time!"

Although it's infuriating that you lived with your girlfriend and lied to your family, your elders can understand your youthful impetuosity and will let it pass after a while.

This matter is completely different in nature. By doing this, you are clearly throwing your grandparents' faces on the ground for the Yan family to trample on.

Lele is also very angry with you. You know, Lele treats your grandparents like her own parents. Anyone who dares to bully your grandparents would be worse than bullying Lele.

You and your girlfriend are treating your grandparents like this, trampling on the dignity of the Zhou family elders. Lele told me that she and Leshan don't recognize you as a relative, and everyone will go their separate ways.

In the future, during holidays, when you get married or have children, don't inform your uncle and me, and don't come back to visit us. Our fishpond is too small to hold big fish like you.

Also, don't call me anymore. I can't help you. Your grandparents have been hurt so badly by you, I can't bring myself to rub salt into their wounds.

Tianhao, since you've made your choice, we have nothing more to say. Just live your life well from now on.

Then, with a soft "beep", the call was interrupted.

My aunt didn't scold anyone; her tone was quite gentle.

However, listening to his aunt's words, Zhou Tianhao felt as cold as if he were standing in the snow in winter.

He listened blankly to his aunt Qiufeng's words, all the words he wanted to ask her to help explain to his grandparents, and to say that he didn't know Yan Xun was using fake birth charts to trick his grandparents, were stuck in his throat.

His aunt's words were like a slap in the face.

Yan Xun used fake birth charts to deceive his grandparents. To say that he was playing tricks on the elderly is self-deception. In reality, it is no exaggeration to say that Yan Xun and the Yan family trampled on the dignity of his elders.

Le Yun was so angry that she said she wouldn't acknowledge him as a relative, which shows that Le Yun really cares about her grandparents.

Even Yue Yun, who has no blood relation to him, is so angry, and what about him...?

"Waaah—" Zhou Tianhao could no longer control himself. He suddenly stood up, shook off Yan Xun who was holding his arm, sat down on the ground, and burst into tears.

Yan Xun, clinging tightly to Zhou Tianhao's arm, heard every word of Zhou Tianhao's aunt's words and was struck dumb—Le Yun had actually severed ties with Zhou Tianhao?!

She and her parents conspired to use fake birth dates to deceive Zhou Tianhao's grandparents, indeed to give the Zhou family a hard time and thus gain control over them.

The Zhou family failed to detect the false birth chart during the compatibility analysis, which naturally made them feel inferior to the Yan family. In the marriage, she completely dominated the relationship, and Zhou Tianhao had no choice but to listen to her.

Who would have thought they miscalculated?

The Le family actually has a master of fortune telling, and Le Yun knows more than just one expert. The two in the Le family aren't martial arts masters, so why is one of them also skilled in fortune telling?
Neither Zhou Tianhao nor any member of the Zhou family ever mentioned that one of the two martial arts masters in the Le family could tell fortunes. If anyone had told her, she wouldn't have knowingly done so.

She and her parents had painstakingly planned everything, only to have Le Yun overturn the table and pinpoint her family's true intentions.

What will Zhou Tianhao think?
Judging from Zhou Tianhao's reaction, he had taken Zhou Qiufeng's words to heart.

Overwhelmed by the shock, Yan Xun was caught off guard and was pushed away by Zhou Tianhao. Forgetting about being upset, she immediately stood up, ran over, and hugged Zhou Tianhao.

"Haohao, I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it. I really didn't want to embarrass your grandparents. I just think that the practice in your village of consulting people and choosing auspicious dates and times for everything, big or small, is too feudal and superstitious. I wanted to use myself as an example as a teaching material..."

She took the initiative to back down, admit her mistake, and insist on her reasons.

“I said our village is feudal and superstitious. You yourself said that your name wasn’t Yan Xun before. Your old name was bad for your wealth, so you changed it after consulting a fortune teller.”

"You believe in fortune telling, and your family believes in feng shui, but your family isn't considered feudal superstition. Why is it considered feudal superstition in our family?" Zhou Tianhao felt sad and angrily retorted when he heard Yan Xun's words.

"You...you think I deliberately tricked your grandparents, right?" Enraged that Zhou Tianhao had caught her red-handed, Yan Xun retorted, "If that's what you think, then we're breaking up!"

"Fine, let's break up!" Yan Xun threatened to break up with him again, which angered Zhou Tianhao.

"..." Yan Xun was stunned. Zhou Tianhao hadn't reacted like this when she said she wanted to break up before.

She was stunned for a moment, then had to save face by getting up, running back to her room in tears, and lying on the bed crying.

In the past, whenever Yan Xun argued with him, Zhou Tianhao would chase after her to coax her and humbly admit his mistakes. This time, however, he didn't chase after her to coax her and instead held his head and cried.

His grandparents don't want him anymore; he has no home!

Zhou Tianhao was heartbroken, and his tears flowed more and more fiercely until he cried until he had no tears left.

He cried until he had no more tears left to shed. He sat up blankly and sat on the sofa, lost in thought.

He stared blankly at his love nest with Yan Xun.

He rented a one-bedroom apartment. The apartment was still quite new; the landlord had only renovated it, and he had bought all the furniture and household items himself.

Back then, he meticulously decorated his love nest so that he could enjoy a sweet life with Yan Xun.

Dating is expensive, and he didn't have enough money. His parents had to give him some money so that he could decorate their love nest to look like a home.

Since he started dating Yan Xun, he has spent all his salary on her, buying her clothes and lipsticks, treating her to food and drinks, and sending gifts to Yan Xun's parents every holiday.

After renting the apartment, the rest of my salary, after paying the rent, was still spent on Yan Xun and the Yan family.

Sometimes when I'm short of money, I have to ask my parents for help.

Since I started working, I haven't given my parents any money, nor have I given my grandparents any. I only buy them things when I go back home for Chinese New Year. I just call them on weekdays and haven't done anything to show my respect to them.

It would have been better if he hadn't calculated it carefully, but as he did, Zhou Tianhao's heart grew colder and colder.

With a heart completely cold, Zhou Tianhao tried hard to recall how many times he had asked his parents for help in times of emergency, how much money his parents had subsidized him, and how much money he had spent on Yan Xun and the Yan family.

Even if you don't count it all, a rough calculation shows that the total amount of money given to the Yan family for gifts during holidays alone exceeded 80,000 yuan.

That money was almost enough to make a down payment on a house in Fangxian County.

Zhou Tianhao initially couldn't believe the results he had calculated. After repeatedly reflecting on them, he realized that the actual amount of money spent was likely more than he had predicted.

Because Yan Xun's younger brother would sometimes call him for help in emergencies, he would give him three or five hundred yuan, but Yan Xun's younger brother never paid him back, and he never kept track of the amount.

Zhou Tianhao suddenly wondered if he had been bewitched, which was why he had never kept track of the accounts.

After recalling everything that happened before he met Yan Xun and after they started living together, Zhou Tianhao silently got up to turn off the light, then went back to the sofa, lay down, and closed his eyes.

He needs some quiet time!
With the living room lights off, it's a good time for contemplation.

As Zhou Tianhao reminisced about the past, Yan Xun, who had run back to her bedroom, was still waiting for him to coax her.

Yan Xun ran back to the bedroom, hoping Zhou Tianhao would comfort her, so she didn't close the bedroom door. She lay on the bed and cried for a while, but when she realized Zhou Tianhao hadn't followed, she couldn't cry anymore.

She didn't even wash her face; she just climbed onto the bed and lay down.

Then they waited and waited, but Zhou Tianhao never came to bow his head. As they waited, the living room lights went out.

She thought Zhou Tianhao would come to the bedroom, but he didn't!

Zhou Tianhao preferred to stay in the living room rather than come and coax her, simply because he wanted her to admit that she had made a mistake so that he could use this to shut her and her parents up in the future.

Yan Xun decided to stick to her own way, resolutely refusing to admit her mistake, and leaving Zhou Tianhao hanging until he apologized at least five times before she would forgive him.

In the past, whenever I argued with Zhou Tianhao, he would apologize quickly. If he didn't admit his mistake, I would only let it go for a couple of days before I couldn't stand it anymore.
