Chapter 502: Chapter 476: Things Take a Turn (1050+ Monthly Tickets Update)
Xiao Qian’s words deeply touched Father Yu.
Actually, Xiao Qian felt more sympathy for Xiufang’s parents – Yu Minglang’s grandparents.
These two elders might not see their daughter mature and sensible until the moment they closed their eyes for the last time.
Such immature personalities living till old age but still acting like self-important little princesses, committing selfish acts everywhere, Psychology calls it “big baby mentality” – just like children who never grow up. They don’t know what they should do for their family and society at a certain age. 90% of domestic families’ misfortune is related to big baby mentality.
At this age, Xiufang still hasn’t understood her family members with the maturity and rationality that an adult should have.
She only thinks about her own satisfaction, not realizing that her actions deeply hurt Father and Mother Yu’s hearts. To put it bluntly, even if all the people in the world were combined, they wouldn’t be as important as herself in Xiufang’s heart. She loves herself too much, always treating herself as a baby.
Xiao Qian is also someone who loves herself very much, but different from Xiufang, Xiao Qian’s heart has a few important people. She would think about their feelings before making a decision, such as the case with Xiufang. Even though Xiao Qian had the ability to make Xiufang never stand up again, she still chose the approach of letting Father Yu take action.
All of that was because she considered Ming Lang’s feelings, and that was the difference.
Poor Father Yu and the other elders at the Yu Family, they spent a lifetime loving Xiufang but never got anything in return. Instead, their excessive devotion turned Xiufang into someone who only knew how to take, which had to do with both human selfishness and the spoils of their environment. In any case, this outcome is something no one wants to see.
Father Yu looked at Xiao Qian, wondering why his little sister, who had lived for so long, still didn’t have a child who was more insightful. In the end, he couldn’t figure it out and could only helplessly and nostalgically glance at the jujube tree.
“Regarding the things your Aunt did to you, I will give you a satisfactory answer, not just for you, but also for our family.”
Xiao Qian remained noncommittal. Father Yu was a decisive person, and whatever he decided to do, there was basically no room for maneuver. The fact that he could come over today must have meant that he had made up his mind to sever his last bit of tolerance towards Xiufang.
Suddenly, Xiao Qian thought of what Jia Xiufang said to her and Chen Zilong yesterday about siblings drifting apart after marriage. Xiao Qian thought nothing of the statement.
Everyone has their own lives. Family is a combination of many people from different places coming together to form a whole, and then splitting again into new smaller families. Though saying people drift apart may be a bit harsh, living separate lives without interfering with each other but still offering help when faced with problems is the wish of the elders.
Unfortunately, it went contrary to their wishes, as Xiufang was too good at courting disaster.
Xiao Qian wouldn’t speak well of her enemies, so when Father Yu made the promise, she only gave a slight smile but didn’t express any opinions – not adding fuel to the fire yet not saying she would forgive either.
There would be no forgiveness after the harm has been done, this was the principle – but this principle might change due to the phone call Father Yu was about to receive.
“Boss, you have a call!” The bodyguard ran over from the outside and handed Father Yu a mobile phone.
As Father Yu took the phone, he said to Xiao Qian.
“I’ll take this call, and you’ll ride in my car later. I’ll have the driver send you.”
Xiao Qian nodded. It was time for her to go back to school.
“I’m Yu Weiguo – Li Zhen?”
Hearing this name, Xiao Qian was shocked.
Wasn’t this the child from Aunt Xiufang’s family?
All the trouble Xiufang had caused was because of Li Zhen.
Li Zhen and the scumbag Ni Jianren, who almost got engaged to Xiao Qian before, were a gay couple. Because Ni Jianren wanted to deceive Xiao Qian into a marriage first and then set fire to her family, Ming Lang took action against Li Zhen, forcing Xiufang’s husband to transfer Li Zhen to a remote area.
Xiao Qian didn’t know yet that something happened to Li Zhen. He had just been rescued and was now lying in the hospital ward calling Father Yu.
Upon hearing this familiar name, her instincts told her that something was wrong.
“How was your surgery? Was it successful? What, you still can’t stand up? Child, don’t worry, your uncle will find the best doctor for you. We’ll definitely cure you!” Although Father Yu hated Xiufang for doing such things, he didn’t have much resentment toward her child.
Especially now that Li Zhen was facing the risk of paralysis, Father Yu couldn’t say harsh words to him. He had to put the issues between the parents aside, and if the child didn’t do anything wrong, he should still get treated.
“Uncle, the doctor said I might not be able to stand up again, but that’s not the important thing. I want to ask you if you have Chen Xiaoqian’s contact information. I want to talk to her.”
Li Zhen’s voice sounded tired.
“You want Xiao Qian’s phone number?” Father Yu instinctively looked at Xiao Qian, not knowing what the situation was. He reflexively turned his back to Xiao Qian and asked in a low voice.
“What do you want her number for?”
Was this going to be another wave of trouble?
“I heard my parents arguing while I was lying in the hospital room, and I found out that my mother did some bad things. I want to apologize to Chen Xiaoqian in person. The situation was caused by me, and I hope she can forgive my mother, considering that I am now a disabled person.”
After honing himself in a remote area for so long, Li Zhen’s character had also changed.
In that nationally impoverished county, he was far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, free from the scheming of others, and without the attraction of glittering nightlife. What he faced were those honest faces. Many of his mannerisms as a rich playboy had changed.
“There’s no need for that. Child, listen to your uncle. If you’re sick, get well. This matter has nothing to do with you, and I have it all in my heart. Now don’t think about anything else, just get your body well, alright?”
“Uncle, I really feel guilty like this. I won’t be able to heal in peace if I don’t see Chen Xiaoqian – Actually, whether I heal or not doesn’t matter much anymore. I’ll spend the second half of my life in bed. Uncle, can you please fulfill my wish?”
Upon hearing this, Father Yu also felt distressed. A healthy kid went out to gain experience, and now he’s coming back lying down unable to get up anymore. And Li Zhen went there because of his son’s actions. To say he didn’t have any guilt would be a lie.
Father Yu reluctantly turned around and was just about to speak to Xiao Qian when he suddenly felt his hand lighten.
The bodyguard by his side was shocked with eyes wide open. Could it be that someone dared to snatch something from the big boss’s hand?
Xiao Qian snatched Father Yu’s phone.
“I am Chen Xiaoqian. We’ll talk when we meet later. You cooperate with the doctor’s treatment now. We’ll be there soon.”
After finishing, she hung up the phone and returned it to Father Yu.
“Uncle, let’s go.”
“You little girl, you really are…”
Father Yu was both angry and amused but admired her even more.
This girl was not simple. She knew that she would have to go anyway, so instead of agreeing when he asks, it was better to take the initiative. She really was an understanding, practical, and high EQ girl.
