orning. 。"Did your husband spend the night at yours again Qin Jingwen, you're so bold! Even grandpa warned you, yet you still dare to pester—" 。“ Her opening line was a venomous interrogation, typic...Qin Jingwen knew about Ban Yue's personality. No matter what, knowing only the surface wouldn't be enough; she would always get to the bottom of things. 。But this story about the villa on the mountaintop is too much, it's better not to let the children know. 。“Oh, so it's Master Grandpa.” 。"Daddy, it's Chinese New Year and I haven't greeted Grandpa yet. Can I give Grandpa a call" Half-Moon shifted the topic to Qiao De Xiang again. 。"He could..." "Could..." Qin Jingwen interrupted him once again, only allowing the two words "could" to escape Qiao Shunchen's lips. 。"Half Moon, just send a message to Grandpa using Mommy's phone. Write whatever you want in the message. If you call, Grandpa will know that Daddy and brother are here." 。" Having said that, Qin Jingwen handed her phone to Ban Yue. 。She doesn't want to let the child make a phone call, she's just afraid that if the child talks too much, it will cause unnecessary trouble. 。 Half Moon took the phone to one side to send a message to her grandfather, while Qiao Shunchen's gaze shifted to Qin Jingwen. 。“Nuan Nuan, why are you so careful about everything” “It's not being careful, it's about not causing unnecessary trouble to others.” 。Since my parents left, I've been living in trouble every day. I always cause problems for others, and it's really weighing on me. 。"As Qin Jingwen said, there's already a dark side to this in my heart. I'm always afraid of causing trouble for others, so I have to be careful about everything. 。"Winwin, we've known each other for so long. I only know that your parents died in a car accident, but I don't understand how dying in a car accident could lead to such a huge debt. 。"Can you tell me more" Joe Shunchen wasn't necessarily desperate to know these things, he just wanted Qin Jingwen to say them all out loud. Only then could it prove she had forgotten the past, that she had walked out of her grief. 。Qin Jingwen lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, then felt that it wasn't anything shameful, and it wouldn't hurt to say it out loud. 。"So much foreign debt because..." Just as Qin Jingwen was about to speak, the doorbell rang 。"Forget it, let's talk another time. Maybe dinner has arrived." 。Qin Jingwen got up to open the door, and just like that, the topic was missed again. 。 The Qiao family's old house in City B 。After dinner, the Qiao Liang and Qiao Bin brothers accompanied their father in the living room watching TV. 。Qiao Bin was bored, so he went out to play mahjong with his wife. The living room was left with only Qiao Liang and Qiao Dexiang. 。At this time, Joe's cell phone emitted a text message alert. 。He glanced at it casually. The sender was Qin Jingwen, so he opened the message. 。"Good morning, Grandpa. I'm Half-Moon" 。Today is the start of a new year, Ban Yue wishes Grandpa good health, happiness and joy in the new year. 。Mommy, let me bring this to Grandpa. Wishing Grandpa a Happy New Year! 。Mom also said thank you for Grandpa's help and care for both of us this past year. 。Grandpa loves you so much. 。After reading this text message, Joe Chiang felt very touched. His cold and hard heart finally understood the meaning of being moved. 。"Little Han Yue is so likeable, he even sent me a text wishing me a happy new year. 。"Joe Chiang sighed and said," 。It was her mommy who taught her well. 。Joe Liang was secretly delighted. The moment he heard his father praise Ban Yue, he was the happiest. He was also proud that Ban Yue was a child of the Qiao family. 。"Yes, this child is sensible and well-behaved. When faced with difficulties, she remains composed and level-headed. She really resembles her mother." 。"Qin Jingwen is a good child, she's responsible and keeps her promises, she just... was born into the wrong family." 。Joe Xiang once again sighed, it seemed that the saying "no one is perfect" was most fitting for Qin Jingwen. 。She was just a little short of being the best candidate for mistress of the Qiao family, but that bit couldn't be made up for. 。It's pretty good, especially at work he's excellent, and in educating his children, he's unmatched. 。Not only did she educate her own children well, but she also educated Xu Xuan to be well-behaved and obedient. 。Joe also agreed, his father's words had actually shaken him a bit. He also thought highly of Qin Jingwen. 。He just has a deeply ingrained notion of finding someone who is right for him, and it's not easily changed. 。When it comes to Qin Jingwen's excellence, Qiao Dexiang probably has more say. He's always been focused on her abilities and wants to find a particularly outstanding aspect to make up for her minor shortcomings. 。Yes, he's very capable at work. 。High emotional intelligence and high IQ, she is a rare female powerhouse. 。Ah... let's not talk about her, she just gives me a headache. 。“ Qiao Xiang changed the subject himself, because Qin Jingwen was not suitable to be the mistress of the Qiao family, but he also felt it was a pity to give up. 。"Qiao Liang, you're over sixty now. Another year has passed, and life will only get harder as time goes on." 。Joe Yu can't stay with you every day overseas, and even if Shunchen moves back, most of his energy is focused on work and he doesn't have time to take care of you. 。"Aren't you looking for someone, two people taking care of each other, so the children can feel safe and secure" 。Joe Xiang has been thinking about this, but he doesn't know if Qiao Liang will agree. 。"I can take care of myself, I don't need to rely on anyone. I've been used to being alone for so many years, and I don't want to be bothered by others." 。" Qiao Liang refused very bluntly. 。For so many years, he has been carrying the weight of regret, atoning and waiting with a heart full of guilt. 。If he could see it, if he could let go, he wouldn't be single for so many years. 。 "Still can't forget Qin Lan, huh"Joe Dejiang suddenly became serious. Joe Liang's only reason for refusal was Qin Lan 。"Dad, I'm over sixty years old. Let me handle my own affairs." 。Now that Shunchen and I are making progress in our relationship, I don't want to ruin it all because of this. 。 Qiao Liang avoided talking about Qin Lan in front of his father, he didn't want to bring up those past events. 。"You're so old, you still can't face reality After all these years, it's time to end the atonement." 。Besides, aren't all the mistakes on you Qin Lan wouldn't have gotten into that situation if he hadn't been clinging to you. 。Joe Xiang inexplicably became furious. Looking at his son who had been torturing himself for so many years and still showed no signs of stopping, he was worried deep down. 。At ninety years old, it's the age where one can just walk away. If his son hadn't insisted, how could he have closed his eyes 。"Dad, please don't bring up what happened back then. I have my own thoughts about it." 。I already explained to you back then, the blame doesn't lie with Qin Lan, she's a victim as well. 。Just don't talk about her anymore. 。“
Qiao Liang's voice was low, because his father was getting older, no matter how much his father denigrated Qin Lan he couldn't confront his father. " 。You're always avoiding this, it's not a solution. You feel like you owe Qin Lan something, why don't you just find her and apologize 。If she really is as good a woman as you say, I believe she can forgive you. 。But as soon as she appears, Shunchen and Qiao Yu will definitely not be able to accept it. 。
It's up to you to figure out the relationship in the middle.
" Qiao Xiang's words were tantamount to acknowledging Qin Lan, after all, looking at his son alone made him feel sorry, and at this time, no matter what Qiao Liang did, he wouldn't affect the Qiao family. " 。It's just that Qiao Shunchen definitely wouldn't be able to make it work over there. 。"Dad, it's too late, I can't find anyone" 。Had these words been heard twenty years ago, Qiao Liang might have been so excited he couldn't sleep. 。But now it's meaningless to talk about it. 。All those affected have endured the pain they were meant to bear. An apology is insignificant and cannot compensate for the harm inflicted on everyone. 。 Qiao Liang's words made Qiao Dexiang silent. Back then, he had participated in this matter. If he hadn't participated, would the result have been different But under those circumstances, for the sake of the overall situation, he could only do that. 。What he never expected was that Qiao Shunchen's mother would commit suicide by jumping from a building, and he never expected that Qiao Liang would give up everything and isolate himself. He let him be as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and let his child painfully hate him. He still chose to live silently. 。“I'll send someone out to look for him. As long as he's alive, we'll find him.” 。Josiah suddenly felt compassion. Looking at his elderly son, who was alone and heartbroken, he felt a pang of sympathy. 。"No need to look any further, Shunchen and Qiao Yu wouldn't accept it either." 。Dad, don't worry about my affairs. 。It makes me very happy that Shunchen can return to the city suburbs. My life has become richer and more fulfilling all at once. 。That way, if I persist until death, I will be content. 。The fact that Qin Lan had already appeared, Qiao Liang didn't reveal. Although his father agreed verbally, when he saw Qin Lan, he would think of the past events, and might still do something cruel. 。To keep Qin Lan's family's life a little more peaceful, Qiao Liang chose to hide 。Once Qin Lan's identity is exposed, everything will come to light. The relationship between Qiao Shunchen and Qin Jingwen will inevitably undergo a qualitative change. 。Although there are children, this matter will eventually be exposed. As long as the Qin family keeps it hidden for a day, they can have peace for a day. 。
"Sigh…"
Jo De-Xiang let out a helpless sigh. How could he possibly feel at ease If he were truly at ease, he wouldn't have brought it up in the first place
"Dad, are you really going to let Ye Wen and Shunchen get married" After a moment of silence, Qiao Liang brought up Qiao Shunchen. 。No matter how he thought about it, he felt that Ye Wen was not worthy of Qiao Shunchen and lacked the grace of being the mistress of the Qiao family. 。If Ye Wen is married, the two children will suffer later. 。"Ye Wen has basically given up, I've already had Shun Chen go on dates again." 。“
This matter, Joe hadn't told anyone yet, afraid that it would reach Ye Wen's ears, and Ye Wen would make a fuss
"An arranged meeting Shunchen agreed" Qiao Liang had a puzzled look on his face. How could Qiao Shunchen agree to an arranged meeting Could he give up Ye Wen If he could give her up, why not just choose Qin Jingwen directly instead of going on an arranged meeting 。He agreed to an arranged marriage, and I agreed. Qin Jing has been staying at our house for the past half month... 。" Joe Xiang said this, and Qiao Liang understood what he meant. It was a kind of exchange of interests. 。But Qin Jingwen had self-awareness and wouldn't come. 。"In other words, Qiao Shunchen was eager and willingly jumped into his grandfather's trap. " 。"Yes, that child is sensible and well-behaved so he didn't come 。Joe knew that even if he didn't make the call, Qin Jingwen wouldn't come over. 。Qin Jingwen's restraint here is better than Ye Wen's. 。What was Shunchen thinking, agreeing to an arranged marriage meant having to break up with Ye Wen 。"Can he give up Ye Wen now"
Qiao Liang no longer understands Qiao Shunchen, and doesn't know which side his heart leans towards.
"Even if I can't let go, I have to put her down. What is Ye Wen anyway She wants everything but has nothing, not even the most basic morals. How does she deserve to be part of the Qiao family" 。She thought her father's company could back her up, but in my view, it was nothing. 。When it comes to Ye Wen, Qiao Dexiang's anger is uncontrollable. 。The more he thought about what Ye Wen had done, the more he disliked her. 。each other, otherwise Qiao Shunchen's fists would have been mercilessly swung out long ago. 。"And the matter of Qin Jingwen's brakes failing, did you do it" Joe Shunchen suddenly linked this incident...
