Chapter 1,279: Intertwined Events
couldn't accept it, would I still be able to reappear before you and protect Xuanxuan then" Qin Jingwen's words were neither hot nor cold, but this attitude was what she forced herself to put on, ma..."Aunt, isn't work too busy to be a quiet and leisurely affair" 。"Don't worry about me, being busy is temporary. I'll be able to relax once we leave here completely." 。"
Qin Jingwen comforted her aunt in turn, the hardship was still carried by one person
" 。Although it has experienced unimaginable difficulties over the years, it should be more immune than anyone else. 。But lately, one thing after another has been bothering Qin Jingwen. Even though she tries to control it, she still feels exhausted and drained. She feels like these things are going to torture her to death. 。The worst part is that I can't tell anyone, especially not let Qiao Shunchen see the joke. 。Just hold on, keep going until you explode and then blow her to smithereens. By then, you won't have to care about anyone's feelings or be afraid of being laughed at by anyone. 。"Wenwen, how long will it take you to finish your things We...when can we leave"Qin Lan tentatively asked, although he wasn't sure how much Qin Jingwen had to deal with, Qin Lan wanted to know how determined Qin Jingwen was to leave. 。Qin Jingwen fell silent, her hand holding chopsticks also stopped. 。If all these things were resolved before leaving, it might take several years. 。But let go of everything, and tomorrow you can leave. 。Then Qin Jingwen began to ask herself, should she give up on those things "Auntie, it's hard to say" 。"I want to re-investigate my parents' car accident. If I leave, it will be harder to investigate, unless I give up." 。From beginning to end, Qin Jingwen never told her aunt about this in detail. But at this moment, Qin Jingwen couldn't make up her mind and didn't know whether she should continue with this matter. 。"A car accident Isn't it just a matter of finding the person responsible and having them pay compensation""We've been working on that, but without the person appearing, there's nothing we can do..." 。I don't think this will affect our departure, and moving to another city won't affect the compensation either. 。Qin Lan's speech sped up a little, and his expression became slightly flustered. 。Qin Lan knew about the car accident and that Qiao Shunchen was the one who had been compensated, so she said that. 。"Auntie, car accidents aren't that simple. I suspect now it wasn't just an accident, but intentional." 。Qin Jingwen still decided to tell her aunt and let her aunt help make a decision, whether this matter should continue 。"Artificial What do you mean You think it was Joe... You think the other party's car intentionally hit us" Qin Lan panicked, panicking so badly that she almost blurted out Qiao Shunchen's name. 。She didn't expect Qin Jingwen to suspect the nature of the car accident, she didn't expect the accident to turn into a human-made one. 。It's not the other party's car, the other party's car is also a victim. 。I suspect Dad's car was tampered with, which led to the accident. 。"
‘Quiet down…’
Qin Jingwen saw her aunt’s flustered expression and quickly explained to her. 。She told her aunt everything she knew about the accident and what Jingyi remembered. 。"Could this be true Were your parents framed"Qin Lan's mind went blank, he didn't know how to react, and could only treat what he heard as fact. 。"Auntie, I want to investigate this matter, but it's quite difficult and will take a lot of time. " 。If I continue the investigation, I won't be able to leave for a while. 。" If I don't investigate, I feel like it's wrong that my parents died unjustly. And if I investigate and find out the truth, the money we paid shouldn't have been ours in the first place." 。“ That means even if it cost 80 million, no compensation is needed. One thing gets resolved, and several other things become clear as well.” 。"What should we do" Qin Lan's brain was still muddled, incapable of offering any advice. 。Besides, with the car accident being re-investigated, Joe Shunchen and his team are definitely going to be implicated. 。But even without investigation, Qin Lan felt that his brother and sister-in-law's deaths were unjust. 。"Wenwen, who could have possibly harmed your parents" Qin Lan asked a question with no answer. 。"I don't know, I was studying abroad at that time and didn't know anything about what was happening at home." 。I also want to ask if you know > 。Even if Qin Jingwen had a single clue, she would have reopened the case for investigation. Why wait until now Why go through this helpless agony 。"I don't know either, I wasn't home at the time. " 。" Qin Lan couldn't remember for a moment, but at that time she was missing, and she didn't know anything about what was happening at home. " 。"Auntie, should we continue investigating this" Qin Jingwen clearly sought her aunt's opinion. 。"Let's eat first. I need some time to think about this." 。Qin Lan couldn't give an answer for a moment, she was also struggling with how to deal with this matter. 。After dinner, Qin Jingwen went back to her room to continue the work she hadn't finished today. Qin Lan washed dishes while thinking about what Qin Jingwen had said. 。If a reinvestigation were to be conducted, it would involve Joe Shunchen, and then the incident from over twenty years ago could no longer be concealed. 。If there is no investigation, Qin Jingwen and Qin Jingyi will not be satisfied, nor will she herself. 。It seems like we can't leave for now. As Joe Xiang said, everything is interconnected and we can't just walk away as if nothing happened. 。There's a car accident involved, and Qin Jingwen and Qiao Shunchen's relationship can't be severed cleanly. How long can their intertwined past, spanning over twenty years, remain hidden 。Qin Jingwen returned to her bedroom and started working. Soon after, she received a message from Qiao Shunchen. 。"Half Moon came back to see the child. 。"Seeing this information, Qin Jingwen panicked. There was no way she could continue working." 。Then, he packed his belongings, told his aunt, and left. 。Reaching the house near the elementary school, Qin Jingwen felt a twinge of emotion. 。To be precise, this is no longer her home, but Qiao Shunchen's. 。And as for her appearance, she was neither a guest nor a host. As for how to define herself, she could only say that she was the child's mother. 。Qin Jing gently pushed the door open and, as she changed her shoes, heard a conversation between Qiao Shunchen and Ban Yue. 。In the living room, Qiao Shunchen was sitting on the sofa, holding his sick daughter Half Moon in his arms. The father and daughter were chatting. 。"Dad, are you and Mom really going to split up this time" This was the question Ban Yue had been worried about for weeks, and today she finally couldn't hold it in any longer. 。
Don't overthink it, it's fine.
“ Qiao Shunchen’s answer was vague. For now, he might not separate from Qin Jingwen, but one day they will have to declare their identities and stand on opposite sides.” 。Once everything is revealed, whether they are together or apart, both children will eventually face this problem. 。But right now, the child is sick, and Qiao Shunchen doesn't have the heart to give the child an accurate answer. 。But Mommy has been gone for days, and she hasn't come back. 。"Isn't this just a break-up then"
"Daddy, can we please not break up My brother and I don't want to choose between you and Mom." 。"
Haoyue has her own thoughts, and her mother's side has already made it clear, so her father's answer can't ease her mind. " 。Half a month, Dad asked you a question 。"If your parents had to separate, who would you choose"Jo Shunchun asked Ban Yue. Although he knew this question was cruel for a child, he needed to know Ban Yue's thoughts and be mentally prepared in advance. 。"I... I..." Half-Moon was at a loss. She wanted to choose to be with her mom and dad, but the options given by her father didn't include that. 。"Daddy, I'm afraid to be with you, afraid of being abused by your stepmother." 。“ That’s the wisest answer she could come up with, even though it means not choosing her father. She thinks this way, her father might feel better. ” 。"Aren't you afraid of being abused by your stepfather if you stay with your mother" Qiao Shunchen understood the child's answer, after all, the fact that Song Yien had abused Qiao Zixuan was real. 。"Mom won't, Mom will never marry for the rest of her life for us." 。Even if she gets married, she will still put us at the center and won't let us suffer any wrong. 。" This is what Half Moon said more directly, and she firmly believes that her mother can do it. 。"Dad can too, for you two, Dad can stay single forever, just to take care of the both of you " 。"So, would you choose Dad"
Jo Shunchen also put his words into action. Just as Qin Jingwen could do it, he could do it too.
As long as the child is happy, as long as the child stays with him, he can sacrifice a lifetime of happiness. 。"I…" Just as Ban Yue was once again at a loss, Qiao Zixuan walked over with the medicine. 。"Daddy, this is also cold medicine " 。I've taken the fever medicine for a while now, can I also take this cold medicine 。"
Joe Hsu said that and gave the medicine to his father, letting his father take a look 。He heard what his father and Half Moon said, and he came to interrupt so promptly just because he didn't want Half Moon to have a choice. 。
Mom will never marry him, he believes that. But Dad has too much responsibility on his shoulders, even if he promised to never marry, it's impossible to do.
So, no matter what Dad says, Qiao Zixuan's choice is Mom, and she has to take her younger sister along. 。"Let me just take a look at how much you've eaten" 。Joe Shun-chen took the medicine that Joe Zi-xuan passed to him and seriously looked at the instructions. 。At this time, Qin Jingwen, who had been standing at the door all along, also walked over. 。"How are you doing, Ban Yue" 。 "Mom "> 。Hearing her mother's voice and seeing her mother, Ban Yue was so wronged that she almost cried. 。"Mom, let's see if you still have a fever" Qin Jingwen used her hand to touch Ban Yue's forehead and roughly tested her temperature. 。"Well, I don't think I have a fever now." 。Qin Jingwen felt a little relieved. 。Compared to this bit of reassurance for half a month, Qin Jingwen was more comforted by Qiao Shunchen's saying that he would remain unmarried for life for the sake of the child. 。Qin Jingwen could see that Qiao Shunchen cared for the children, and she could tell he truly loved them. 。With his words, Qin Jingwen felt that it was safe to let someone leave. 。"After taking fever-reducing medicine, the fever subsided temporarily. I don't know how it will be later." 。Joe Shunchen explained the situation, and his tone was relatively normal. 。This was also the warmest thing Qin Jingwen had heard from Qiao Shunchen since his sudden change. 。Maybe the child is right here. Qiao Shunchen, for the sake of the child, should also give her some face. 。"Let me take care of her. If she still has a fever later, I'll take her to the hospital." 。Qin Jingwen didn't want to cause trouble for Qiao Shunchen, and she hoped the two of them could leave the living room. Otherwise, being around like this made her very uncomfortable. 。"Take this medicine first, see how much you take, and I'll get some water." 。" Jo Shunchen said, setting the crescent moon down. Then he got up and went to find some water" 。"Half-moon, is there anywhere else that hurts" Qin Jingwen asked carefully, at the same time sitting down. 。“It’s just dizziness, nothing else.” 。"Mom, have you been busy these days Why haven't you come back to see us" 。”him and Qin Jingwen. 。“You’re right to think that way, but you can’t let this thing affect your life” 。"You are now very certain that the person you love is Qin Jingwen, and you have two children 。Ev...
