Chapter 165: Chapter 165: The Relationship Has Faded Significantly

Today, Yun Sisi’s biological parents came knocking, saying they wanted to take Yun Sisi back to their hometown for the New Year.

The idea was absurd, and Xu Ya felt there was no way she would ever agree to it.

"Madam, why not? Sisi has a little brother. Doesn’t Sisi miss her brother?" Liu Congfang asked Yun Sisi warmly.

"I... Please stop. I’m not going back with you." Yun Sisi said, reaching out to hold Xu Ya’s hand. "Mom, I’m scared."

"There’s no room for discussion here. Sisi is definitely staying in South City," Xu Ya said as she got up to see them out.

Yun Sisi’s biological parents wanted to say more, but Xu Ya’s face was ice-cold, showing she wasn’t willing to discuss further. They had no choice but to sigh and leave.

"I’ll go see them out," Yun Sisi said to Xu Ya.

Xu Ya felt a bit unhappy about it but decided it was just basic courtesy, so she didn’t stop Yun Sisi.

After they all left, Xu Ya emptied the tea in front of her in one gulp.

The tea, originally scalding, had been left sitting for a while and was now cold.

The cold tea seemed to chill her heart as well, leaving her with an indescribable feeling toward Yun Sisi.

In truth, ever since the last time Yun Sisi lied and accused Yun Shifei unfairly, Xu Ya’s relationship with Yun Sisi had significantly cooled.

At that time, Xu Ya stormed out in anger, and Yun Sisi ran after her to apologize, promising never to lie again.

While Xu Ya had forgiven her then, it wasn’t possible for her heart to be completely free of resentment.

She had initially wanted to repair her relationship with Yun Shifei, but Yun Sisi’s interference only made things worse.

For the first time, Xu Ya felt a bit of resentment toward Yun Sisi.

That resentment also gave her some clarity, making her realize she had been overly indulgent toward Yun Sisi all along.
