Chapter 358: A Conversation Between Father and Son

remained silent, but his brows furrowed even tighter. 。"Junchen, let's not talk about what happened before anymore. 。For Winnie, this is a disgrace. Now you just need to stop believing her. 。“ So...Qin Jingwen knew about Ban Yue's personality. No matter what happened, she knew that just knowing the surface was not enough, she would definitely get to the bottom of it. 。But this story about the mountain villa is too much, it's better not to let the child know. 。"Oh, so it's Grandpa after all." 。"Daddy, I haven't wished Grandpa a happy New Year yet. Can I give him a call" Half-moon shifted the topic to Joe Xiang again. 。"Can..." He only managed to say the first character, "Can," before Qin Jingwen interrupted him once again. 。"Half-month, just send a message to grandpa using Mommy's phone. Think about what you want to say in the message. If you call, grandpa should know that Daddy and brother are here. " 。“ As she spoke, Qin Jingwen passed her phone to Ban Yue. 。She doesn't want her child to make phone calls because she's afraid they might talk too much and cause unnecessary trouble. 。Halfway through sending a message to her grandfather on his phone, Ban Yue shifted her attention to Qin Jingwen. 。"Wenwen, why are you so careful about everything""It's not being careful, it's just that I'm afraid of causing unnecessary trouble to others." 。Since my parents left, I've been living in trouble every day. I always cause all sorts of trouble for others, and it's really weighing on me. 。" As Qin Jingwen said, there is already a dark side in my heart about this aspect. I'm always afraid of causing trouble for others, so I have to be careful about everything. " 。"Wen Wen, 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 would lead to such a huge debt. 。"Can you tell me" Jo Shunchen wasn't necessarily eager to know these things. He just wanted Qin Jingwen to say it all, so that it would prove she had forgotten the past, proved that she had moved on from her grief. 。Qin Jingwen lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, then felt that it wasn't something shameful, so she said it out loud. 。“So many foreign debts because…” Just as Qin Jingwen was about to say it, the doorbell rang 。"Forget it, we can talk later. Maybe dinner has arrived." 。Qin Jingwen got up and went to open the door, just like that the topic was missed once again. 。

The Qiao family's old house in City B

After dinner, 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 cards with his wife. In the living room, there were only Qiao Liang and Qiao Dexiang left. 。At that moment, Joe Chiang's phone buzzed with a text message notification. 。He glanced at it casually. The sender was Qin Jingwen, and then he opened the message. 。"Good morning, Grandpa. I'm Ban Yue." 。Today marks the beginning of a new year. Half-month wishes to Grandpa that he will be healthy, happy and joyful in the new year. 。Mommy, let me take this to grandpa, and wish grandpa a happy new year. 。Mommy also said thank you for Grandpa's help and care for both me and her this past year. 。Grandpa, I love you for half a month. 。After reading this text message, Joe Chang felt very touched. His always cold and hard heart finally understood the meaning of being moved. 。"This child, Half Moon, is so likable. She even sent me a message to wish me Happy New Year." 。"Joe Chiang said with emotion, " 。"It's her mommy who taught her well" 。" Qiao Liang was secretly delighted. The moment he heard his father praise Ban Yue, he was the happiest, and he was proud of Ban Yue because she was a child of the Qiao family." 。"Yes, this child is sensible and well-behaved. She's calm and composed when faced with challenges, just like her mother." 。"Qin Jingwen is a good child, she is responsible and keeps her promises, but she was born into the wrong family." 。" Qiao Xiang once again sighed, it seemed that the saying "no one is perfect" was most fitting for Qin Jingwen. 。She was so close to being the best candidate for the Qiao family's mistress, but that little bit just couldn't make up for it. 。It's quite good, especially in work she excels and in educating children she is unmatched. 。Not only did she educate her own children well, but she also raised Xuxu to be obedient and well-behaved. 。" Qiao Liang also agreed, his father's words actually had some effect on Qin Jingwen. He was also optimistic about Qin Jingwen. " 。It's just that his ingrained belief in finding a suitable match is deeply rooted and not easily changed. 。When it comes to Qin Jingwen's excellence, Qiao Dexiang probably has more say. He has always been paying attention to her abilities and wants to find something particularly outstanding to make up for her minor shortcomings. 。“Yes, she is very capable.” 。High EQ and high IQ, she is a rare female powerhouse. 。Sigh… let's not talk about her. Bringing her up just makes things complicated. 。" Jo Xiang changed the subject himself, because while Qin Jingwen wasn't suitable to be the mistress of the Qiao household, he also felt it would be a pity to give up on her. " 。"Qiao Liang, you're over sixty now. Another year older after the New Year. The days ahead will only get harder." 。Joe Yu can't stay by your side every day while she's abroad. Even if Shunchen moves back in, he spends most of his time working and doesn't have time to take care of you. 。" Aren't you looking for one, where two people look after each other, and the children can feel at ease as well 。Joe Xiang has been thinking about this, but he's not sure 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." 。“ Qiao Liang refused very flatly. 。For so many years, he has been carrying the weight of apology and atonement, 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, can you" Qiao Dexiang suddenly became serious. The only reason Qiao Liang refused was because of Qin Lan 。"Dad, I'm over sixty years old. Let me handle my own affairs." 。Now that things are starting to progress between me and Shunchen, I don't want to ruin everything. 。Qiao Liang evaded the topic, unwilling to bring up Qin Lan in front of his father, nor those past events. 。"You're so old, you still can't face reality After all these years, your atonement should be over." 。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 was inexplicably enraged. Looking at his son torturing himself like this for so many years and showing no signs of stopping, he worried deeply. 。At ninety years old, it's the age where one can just walk away. If his son hadn't insisted, how could he possibly close his eyes 。"Dad, let's just not talk about what happened back then. I have my own thoughts on it." 。I already explained to you back then, the blame doesn't lie with Qin Lan, she is also a victim. 。

It's best not to talk about her.

Qiao Liang's voice was low. Because his father was getting older, no matter how much his father denigrated Qin Lan, he couldn't contradict his father. 。"You always avoid it, that's not the solution. Don't you think you owe Qin Lan an apology Maybe you should find her and apologize." 。If she's really as good a woman as you say, I believe she can forgive you. 。But the moment she appears, Shunchen and Qiao Yu will definitely not be able to accept it. 。< You yourself should carefully grasp the relationship in between > 。" Qiao Xiang's words were tantamount to acquiescing to Qin Lan, after all, seeing his son alone and helpless, he couldn't bear it. Moreover, at this time, Qiao Liang didn't have any influence on the Qiao family regardless of what he did. " 。It's just that Qiao Shunchen definitely wouldn't be able to explain it over there. 。"Dad, it's too late, we can't find anyone" 。Twenty years ago, Joe Liang would probably have been too excited to sleep if he heard this. 。But now talking about it doesn't make any sense. 。All those involved have endured the pain they deserved. An apology is insignificant and cannot compensate for the harm everyone has suffered. 。 Qiao Liang's words left Qiao Dexiang speechless. Back then, he had been involved in this matter. If he hadn't participated, would the outcome have been different But under those circumstances, for the sake of the bigger picture, he had no choice but to do so. 。What he never expected was that Qiao Shunchen's mother would commit suicide by jumping from a building, and he also didn't expect that Qiao Liang would give up everything and shut himself off. He let Qiao Liang be as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and let his child go through the pain of hating him, but he still chose to live a quiet life without a sound. 。"Perhaps I should send people out to look. As long as they're alive, we'll find them." 。Joe Xiang suddenly felt a twinge of sympathy. Looking at his elderly son, lonely and alone, he felt quite distressed. 。"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 suburbs. Life has become richer and more fulfilling all of a sudden. 。Thus, to persevere until death would satisfy me. 。" Qin Lan's appearance was a fact that Qiao Liang did not reveal. Although his father agreed verbally, when he saw Qin Lan, he would remember the past events and might even do something cruel. 。To keep things peaceful for Qin Lan's family, Qiao Liang chose to keep it a secret. 。Once Qin Lan's identity is exposed, everything will be revealed. The relationship between Qiao Shunchen and Qin Jingwen will inevitably undergo a qualitative change. 。Although there are children, this matter will eventually be exposed. Hiding it for one day means the Qin family can stay quiet for one day. 。"Alas..." Joe Hsiang let out a helpless sigh. How could he possibly feel at ease If he were truly at ease, he wouldn't have brought this up in the first place. 。"Dad, are you really going to let Ye Wen and Shun Chen get married" After a moment of silence, Qiao Liang asked about Qiao Shun Chen. 。No matter what he thought, he felt that Ye Wen was not worthy of Qiao Shunchen, and she didn't have the demeanor of a mistress of the Qiao family. 。If Ye Wen were to be brought home, the two children would suffer the consequences. 。"Ye Wen has basically given up, I've already arranged for Shunchen to go on blind dates again" 。This matter, Joe had not told anyone yet, fearing it would reach Ye Wen's ears, and Ye Wen would make a fuss. 。"Blind date Shunchen agreed" Qiao Liang looked at him with bewilderment. How could Qiao Shunchen agree to a blind date Could he give up Ye Wen Since he was willing to give her up, why not just choose Qin Jingwen directly instead of going on a blind date 。He agreed to arranged dating, and I agree. Qin Jing has been living with us for half a month now, and we'll celebrate Chinese New Year together. 。When Qiao Xiang said that, Qiao Liang understood what he meant. It was a matter of exchanging interests. 。But Qin Jingwen is self-aware 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 they didn't come " 。Joe Xiang knew deep down that even if he didn't make the call, Qin Jingwen wouldn't come over. 。Qin Jingwen's restraint in this aspect is better than Ye Wen's. 。What was Shunchen thinking, agreeing to an arranged marriage means having to separate from Ye Wen. 。"Can he give up Ye Wen now"

Qiao Liang already doesn't understand Qiao Shunchen, and doesn't know which side his heart leans towards

"Even if I can't let go, I have to let go. What kind of person is Ye Wen She wants everything and has nothing. She doesn't even have 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 Dechang's anger can't be contained. 。The more he thought about what Ye Wen had done, the more he disliked her. 。n Jingyi both vie to do the chores at their relatives' homes. This way, they feel more comfortable and less like a burden. 。Although their relatives treated them well, like family, Qin Jingwen still f...
