Xiao Qianâs words deeply touched Father Yu.
Actually, Xiao Qian felt more sympathy for Xiufangâs parents â Yu Minglangâs 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 âbig baby mentalityâ â just like children who never grow up. They donât know what they should do for their family and society at a certain age. 90% of domestic familiesâ misfortune is related to big baby mentality.
At this age, Xiufang still hasnât 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 Yuâs hearts. To put it bluntly, even if all the people in the world were combined, they wouldnât be as important as herself in Xiufangâs 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 Qianâs 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 Langâs 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 didnât have a child who was more insightful. In the end, he couldnât figure it out and could only helplessly and nostalgically glance at the jujube tree.
âRegarding the things your Aunt did to you, I will give you a satisfactory answer, not just for you, but also for our family.â
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 wouldnât speak well of her enemies, so when Father Yu made the promise, she only gave a slight smile but didnât express any opinions â 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 â but this principle might change due to the phone call Father Yu was about to receive.
âBoss, you have a call!â 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.
âIâll take this call, and youâll ride in my car later. Iâll have the driver send you.â
Xiao Qian nodded. It was time for her to go back to school.
âIâm Yu Weiguo â Li Zhen?â
Hearing this name, Xiao Qian was shocked.
Wasnât this the child from Aunt Xiufangâs 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 Xiufangâs husband to transfer Li Zhen to a remote area.
Xiao Qian didnât 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.
âHow was your surgery? Was it successful? What, you still canât stand up? Child, donât worry, your uncle will find the best doctor for you. Weâll definitely cure you!â Although Father Yu hated Xiufang for doing such things, he didnât have much resentment toward her child.
Especially now that Li Zhen was facing the risk of paralysis, Father Yu couldnât say harsh words to him. He had to put the issues between the parents aside, and if the child didnât do anything wrong, he should still get treated.
âUncle, the doctor said I might not be able to stand up again, but thatâs not the important thing. I want to ask you if you have Chen Xiaoqianâs contact information. I want to talk to her.â
Li Zhenâs voice sounded tired.
âYou want Xiao Qianâs phone number?â 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.
âWhat do you want her number for?â
Was this going to be another wave of trouble?
âI 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.â
After honing himself in a remote area for so long, Li Zhenâs 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.
âThereâs no need for that. Child, listen to your uncle. If youâre sick, get well. This matter has nothing to do with you, and I have it all in my heart. Now donât think about anything else, just get your body well, alright?â
âUncle, I really feel guilty like this. I wonât be able to heal in peace if I donât see Chen Xiaoqian â Actually, whether I heal or not doesnât matter much anymore. Iâll spend the second half of my life in bed. Uncle, can you please fulfill my wish?â
Upon hearing this, Father Yu also felt distressed. A healthy kid went out to gain experience, and now heâs coming back lying down unable to get up anymore. And Li Zhen went there because of his sonâs actions. To say he didnât 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 bossâs hand?
Xiao Qian snatched Father Yuâs phone.
âI am Chen Xiaoqian. Weâll talk when we meet later. You cooperate with the doctorâs treatment now. Weâll be there soon.â
After finishing, she hung up the phone and returned it to Father Yu.
âUncle, letâs go.â
âYou little girl, you really areâ¦â
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.
