Chapter 665: Grudge and Gratitude
eded an environment that wouldn't make her lonely. 。As they began their meal, Qin Jingwen declined to drink because she was driving. The two of them only talked about trivial matters, keeping the atm...Qiao Shunchen knew that his grandfather would definitely be puzzled about this topic. 。Now everyone in his family knows the reason for the breakup, while Qin Jingwen's side doesn't know except for the child. 。Actually, Qiao Shunchen also found it strange, but he didn't know what Qin Jingwen was thinking. 。"Yes, her family and friends only know that we broke up, but they don't know the reason." 。" Joe Shun-chen answered again. 。"Why" Jo De-xiang thought Qiao Shun-chen should know the reason, so he just asked. 。But Joe Shunchen had never asked the reason. 。I don't know either, Wenwen didn't say 。It might be shyness. 。This possibility was deduced by Joe Shunchen, but he also felt that Qin Jingwen wasn't the type to be coy or avoid it. 。All in all, he couldn't figure out why Qin Jingwen had been keeping it a secret until now. 。Joe Cheung's possibilities couldn't convince Joe Chiang, because he knew the details and knew that Qin Jingwen hadn't done anything, so there was no such thing as Qin Jingwen being embarrassed. 。Since even Lian Qiao Shunchen didn't say anything, Qin Jingwen must have her own thoughts. 。"I will be mindful of my words later, no matter what. I still respect General Qin's opinion and let her tell her family and friends herself." 。Joe Xiang didn't ask any further. Asking wouldn't have gotten him an answer anyway. If he truly wanted to know, he'd have to ask Qin Jingwen himself. 。I'll also go out and have a look at the children, and explain to them and apologize. I can't let them feel uncomfortable. 。" Joe Chiang stood up and said, the focus now is still on the children. 。Joe Xiang walked in the front, Joe Shunchen followed behind. 。The two children outside and Qin Jingyi were all squatting on the grass. The two children were playing with the grass, while Qin Jingyi was persuading them 。"How did you promise Mom back then, and now why can't you do it" 。They all said that no matter what, it's an adult matter and has nothing to do with you. 。"Grandpa is good to all of you, and you are still liked without being influenced by adults." 。He doesn't like your mom, but if he were like you two, wouldn't he dislike you as well" Qin Jingyi said a lot, but the two children didn't say a word, and in the end she could only force them to speak. 。Two children looked at each other, feeling that their aunt's words seemed very right. 。But thinking about how they are now homeless is still unbearable. 。"Auntie, we're children and can't possibly think of such complicated things" 。"
Qiao Zixuan finally gave such an answer " 。But to Qin Jingyi, this was not an answer but a perfunctory response. 。"I can't believe they still have that kind of attitude towards Grandpa." 。
The grandpa came here specially to see you all because he missed you.
Who could have such treatment It's enough to show how good the Grandpa is to you. 。But what about you You shouldn't treat Grandpa with a cold and indifferent attitude. 。Qin Jingyi tried her best to persuade the two children. If they continued to treat Qiao Dexiang like this, people would think that she was a bad teacher or that she deliberately controlled them. 。Originally, Joe Hsiang didn't have a good impression of his older sister. He was really afraid that this incident would escalate and cause more trouble for her. 。Another point is that out of courtesy and social graces, the two children also shouldn't treat adults this way. 。"Auntie, do you really think Grandpa is good to us" Half Moon finally couldn't help but speak. 。"That's right, if an elder treated my aunt like this, my aunt would definitely be grateful." 。Qin Jingyi also wanted this special treatment, but as she wasn't part of the Qiao family, such favoritism was just a wishful thinking. 。After Qin Jingyi finished speaking, Qiao Dexiang and Qiao Shunchen were already standing behind them not far away, they could clearly hear their conversation 。Just as Qiao Shunchen was about to speak and interrupt, he was stopped by Qiao Dexiang raising his hand. 。He wanted to hear what Ban Yue would say next, he wanted to hear the child's true voice. 。 Half-moon doesn't agree with her aunt's statement, or maybe she really doesn't understand the adult world. 。Her little face became serious, and then she voiced her thoughts. 。"No, I don't think so." 。I think Grandpa isn't really good to us, he doesn't truly love us. 。Those who truly love us will know what we need and won't take away what we need most. 。Loving us is what we deserve, just like a mother endures any hardship for us, and even if she breaks up with her husband, she doesn't leave us. 。“
Ban Yue said it all in one breath, because she was so excited her voice couldn't help but get a little high-pitched.
In half a month, besides her mother, no one truly loves them. 。Even though dad says he loves them very much. 。In fact, they have never fought for anything. 。Maybe Dad also made some effort, but she really didn't feel it. 。She held resentment toward both her father and grandfather, but she didn't speak up because no one took her seriously. No one cared about their feelings, meaning nothing could change and they were left only to feel hurt along with her brother. 。"Half a month..." 。Qin Jingwen could understand the helpless and sour feelings of the child, but she still wanted to comfort the child so that their thoughts would not be distorted and they would not change their attitude towards society. 。But just as she opened her mouth, another voice also called out to Half Moon. 。Qin Jingyi turned her head and saw Qiao Dexiang and Qiao Shunchen standing not far away. 。Seeing them, I wasn't surprised, just disappointed. 。If they didn't come, she could have persuaded the two children well, but since they did, their resistance would be even stronger. Whatever she said would be meaningless. 。"Grandpa, you're here" 。Qin Jingyi greeted and got up, then pulled the two children to their feet as well. 。"Jìng Yí, could you please let me have a private conversation with my child" 。Despite those heart-wrenching words, Joe Shang remained composed. 。He also wants to try his best to persuade the child. 。But Qin Jingyi and Qiao Shunchen's presence might affect the outcome of their conversation. 。"No problem, I was just about to head home anyway." 。This is the Qiao family's home, who would dare to tell them what to do 。The moment Qin Jingyi saw Qiao Shunchen and Qiao Dexiang, she felt a desire to go home, but she was too embarrassed to say anything. 。Now Joe has given her a chance. 。"Jing Yi, Grandpa doesn't mean to chase you away. Just stay here and play with the two children for a while, and we'll leave after lunch." 。" Joed Xiang hurriedly tried to persuade Qin Jingyi to stay. He just wanted to talk to his child alone and didn't mean for Qin Jingyi to leave. 。"Grandpa, I know you didn't mean to make me leave." 。But at this time, I should really go back. My sister is busy with work at home, and if I don't go back to cook her some food, she'll be hungry. 。“ She insisted, finding only an excuse. ” 。“Grandpa, you and the two children have a good talk. I'll go tell Uncle.” 。Grandfather, my sister and I would also welcome you to our home as a guest. 。"Goodbye, Grandpa! Goodbye, Brother Qiao!" Qin Jingyi finished speaking and turned to walk into the house. 。Although the last sentence was said against her will, Qin Jingyi had to say it. 。It's not for anything else, just to prevent Joe Xiang from having other thoughts about his sister. 。When Qin Jingyi walked out of the house, Qiao Shunchen was waiting for him at the door. 。“I’ll send you back, Uncle Zhou. Your uncle went out to take care of something.” 。Joseph wanted to make sure Qin Jingyi wouldn't be unsafe alone, so he offered to walk her home. 。“No need, Qiao Ge. I'll take the bus back.” 。Qin Jingyi refused Qiao Shunchen's kindness. She, like Qin Jingwen, didn't want to trouble anyone. 。But Qiao Shunchen's attitude was also insistent. 。"Let's go, the bus isn't safe." 。"
As he spoke, Qiao Shunchen walked towards the car. Qin Jingyi had no choice but to follow him.
" 。On the way home 。"Is Jing Yi still holding a grudge against Qiao Ge for breaking up with your sister" Qiao Shunchen broke the silence in the car. He could tell that Qin Jing Yi's politeness was all surface level, a facade. 。Their hearts weren't on the same page. 。Qin Jingyi saw that Qiao Shunchen had guessed her inner thoughts, so there was no need to pretend anymore. 。She let out a sigh of relief, feigning exhaustion. 。"Gratitude mixed with resentment" 。You spoke of loving my sister with such certainty, yet in the end you abandoned her, turning her into a laughingstock for all to see. 。This time Qin Jingyi didn't beat around the bush and directly pointed out where her resentment lay. 。Since you harbor resentment towards me, why are you also thanking me Joe Shunchen listened intently, his heart aching. 。He wanted to protect her and love her for his whole life, but this time she had crossed the line. 。"Thank you for letting my sister go, otherwise she would still be discriminated against in your home." 。And you know better than I how much suffering and trauma you've endured. 。My elder sister used to have a heavy heart, her face never showing a genuine smile. 。Now that she doesn't mention you to anyone, and even though it's unknown if her heart still aches... 。But at least there was strength, sunshine, and an upbeat, optimistic spirit on her face. 。“ Qin Jingyi said what she truly thought, even though it might make Qiao Shunchen uncomfortable. She had to say it so that Qiao Shunchen would never bother her sister again. " 。"Joe, I once firmly believed that you were the person in this world who loved my sister the most. You were not only a warm harbor for her but also the one our whole family relied on for life." 。But I've oversimplified your situation, and yours as well. I've also arrogantly placed your sister's position too high. 。Actually, she doesn't matter to you. 。“Well, it’s all over now.” 。No matter what happened before, the road ahead will be smooth. 。Qin Jingyi didn't know if this was the right thing to say, she felt she had to make it clear to Qiao Shunchen about the gap between him and her sister. 。Only Qiao Shunchen himself understood, only he knew that even without Qiao Dexiang's obstruction, the love he had for his sister wasn't as deep and irrepressible as he claimed. 。He understood, he figured it out. His sister's path for the rest of her life could only be smooth. 。However, Qiao Shunchen didn't agree with Qin Jingyi's words. Other matters aside, but Qin Jingwen held a higher position in his heart than Qin Jingyi thought. It wasn't that she had inflated her own importance and placed herself above him. 。
Qiao Shunchen frowned, but he didn't refute
Even though Qin Jingwen held an irreplaceable position in his heart, it couldn't change the fact that she had suffered much and faced discrimination when she was by his side. He lacked the confidence to refute it. 。At that time, Qin Jingwen always had a preoccupied look on her face, and even her smile seemed strained. 。Now it looks much better, at least she's with the person she likes. 。"Has your sister told you why we broke up" Jo Shunchen asked this question. It seemed Qin Jingyi didn't know. If she did, she wouldn't be so righteous and speak like that, right 。"I didn't say anything, not even to Auntie." 。She just said that it was her fault and she did something wrong. 。“
Qin Jingyi thought for a moment, confirming that Qin Jingwen had never told her the reason until now
She had always been curious, but out of respect for her older sister, she never asked. 。this time, Qiao Shunchen and Ye Wen had already walked to their table. 。I don't know if Mr. Joe is here, if he were we would have lunch together 。Chu Yang, as always, had a gentle face and the demeano...
