. 。"Daddy, can you sleep here tonight"Joe Shunchen was stunned. This was the first time he felt his child's dependence on him. It was warm and happy, and very fulfilling. 。Jo Shunchen didn't answer, b...As soon as Qiao Xiang uttered those words, Qin Lan was shocked. 。She stared at Qiao Liang in disbelief, asking him... 。"Are you saying that the person my brother injured is Shun Chen" "Yes, it's Shun Chen." 。"

When Qin Lan heard Qiao Liang's affirmative answer, her first reaction was intense pain, and tears flowed down her cheeks once again. " 。What's going on, how did we get so entangled 。In our past lives, did our Qin family owe you something, that it still hasn't been repaid 。Qin Lan's tears fell like raindrops, her painful expression made Qiao Liang feel heartbroken. 。"Don't cry, it's all destined to happen. No one owes anyone anything." 。Pain is something that must be endured. Everyone has to go through the baptism of pain in order to grow up and mature. 。Only those who have experienced hardship can truly know what happiness is. 。We shall bear this together, the two of us sacrificing for their happiness, I believe it is worth it. 。"

As Joe consoled her, he also tried to persuade her

Running away is the irresponsible thing to do. He doesn't want to apologize to anyone. 。Qin Lan couldn't think of anything at the moment. She didn't understand why their silence for over twenty years hadn't made them forget the past, but instead had made things even more tangled. 。Is this destiny or fate If it's really fate, it's probably a bad one. 。"Wenwen initially went to be a surrogate because of medical expenses and the inability to compensate the deceased." 。Who would have thought the victim was a nobleman, and the surrogate party was also a nobleman 。" We didn't see any of the victim's families during the whole adjustment process, we only saw the lawyers from your side." 。If we had seen this sooner, things might not have escalated to this point. 。Qin Lan's thoughts were completely different from Qiao Liang's. While she was still pondering this unbelievable fate, Qiao Liang was already thinking about how to resolve the situation. 。Qin Lan continued speaking. 。"Winnie had already prepared the money for the injured and vehicle damage. All these years, no matter how difficult things were, we never touched that money." 。I just don't understand why Shun Chen suddenly disappeared, and his phone, which we were always in contact with, has been switched off and never turned back on. 。If we had contacted each other sooner, none of this might have happened. 。" This I'm not too sure about, I don't know if this matter has been resolved 。When Shunchen was in a car accident, he hit his head. Although it wasn't too serious, he lost some of his memory. 。But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with compensation. 。"As for the specifics, Qiao Liang wasn't sure either. He didn't even know why this matter hadn't been resolved after all these years."

He was also dumbfounded by this situation. 。“The amount of money we paid back then was considered a huge sum. Winnie said that according to the legal process, it wasn't necessary to use so much money, but after all, the people were innocent. We tried our best to meet their requirements…” Saying this, Qin Lan couldn't continue. 。At that time, no one could understand the pain and helplessness Qin Jingwen endured. 。Even thinking about it now makes me feel like I went through hell. 。"Well, we're in the wrong. We have no right to complain." 。An innocent life was taken by a brother. All we can do is to comfort the bereaved family. 。Qin Lan kindly took on all of this, and towards Qiao Shunchen, she felt even more guilt. 。What should she do Should she just let things remain tangled and unclear, like vines that tighten with every passing moment, or should she follow Qiao Liang's advice and, despite the potential harm to many, unravel the whole mess 。Qin Lan didn't give her answer until the very end. When they parted, she only told Qiao Liang that she still needed to think about this matter carefully, and Qin Jingyi's affairs couldn't cause more trouble at this time. 。After Qin Lan and Qiao Liang broke up, they took a taxi back to the villa where Qin Lan's older brother used to live. 。Standing outside the villa's gate, Qin Lan was a little surprised. 。The gate was tightly locked, with scattered weeds in the yard. The windows and doors were all closed, seeming deserted. 。Could it be that it's been empty all these years Was it never auctioned off by the bank, or did the buyer simply never move inEven though Qin Lan found this unexpected, he didn't dwell on it too much after all, this was no longer their home. 。The only thing I could feel was the presence of my brother and his wife still moving about in the yard. 。After dinner, Qin Lan and Qin Jingwen, Qin Jingyi brought up the matter of going home, but she didn't mention meeting Qiao Liang. 。"Our home is still there, like it's uninhabited." 。Qin Lan sat in the middle of the sofa, with Qin Jingyi and Qin Jingwen sitting on either side. 。After Qin Lan's words fell, the two sisters looked at each other. 。Then Qin Jingyi intimately hugged Qin Lan's arm, resting her head on Qin Lan's shoulder. 。"Auntie, are you missing Mom and Dad Are you missing our old home" 。Since nobody's around, we can just go take a look. 。Qin Jingyi didn't have too many thoughts, she just thought that her aunt suddenly missed home. 。"Aunt misses home, it would be so much better if your parents were alive." 。" Qin Lan sighed with a face full of sorrow. If his brother and sister-in-law were still alive, none of this might have happened 。Even if they were poor, Qin Jingwen would never be allowed to be a surrogate. Qin Jingwen would never have met Qiao Shunchen and wouldn't have become entangled with him. 。If she had come back earlier, this wouldn't have escalated to this point. At least there wouldn't be two children, and we wouldn't be entangled with the Joe family. 。Just think about it, don't overthink it. 。Thinking too much, parents must be worried about us. 。Qin Jingyi was still comforting her aunt in a sensible manner. She didn't know why her aunt suddenly became sad, and she didn't ask her aunt why she suddenly went back to her original home. 。She only knew that her aunt was the only support she and her sister had, and she couldn't bear to see her sad. 。"Auntie, you said that house is empty now That villa has already been sold"Qin Jingwen opened her mouth and asked her aunt. 。Since the house was sold, she hasn't been back once. 。It's not that I don't want to go, it's that I'm afraid to. 。

I'm afraid of remembering the happy life I used to have, afraid that I won't be able to keep going.

It probably hasn't been inhabited for a while. There are weeds in the yard and no signs of vehicles entering, making it look like it's been abandoned for years. 。" Thinking about the state of that house, Qin Lan could recall the desolation of the Qin family back then. " 。"If no one wants it, then no one wants it. Maybe that rich person who bought it never lived there." 。It's nothing strange. 。Qin Jingyi was advising the two of them together this time, afraid that her sister would also be saddened by the house. 。"Auntie, have you visited the old house your grandfather left you"Qin Jingwen shifted the topic to that old house again. These were all their pain points after all. 。Although Qin Jingyi didn't want to bring up these things for fear of affecting everyone's mood, these pains hidden in her heart would hurt for a lifetime. Saying them out loud would relieve the pain and wouldn't hurt so much. 。"No, I've never seen it." 。"Qin Lan replied that she had never dared to fantasize about that house, fearing it would burden Qin Jingwen's heart. 。"Auntie, when you have time, go and have a look" 。If the owner of that house wanted to sell, we'd buy it back. 。Qin Jingwen had long wanted to tell her aunt this, but she forgot when she got busy. Today, she just happened to have the opportunity to bring it up. 。"Buy it back We don't have that much money" Qin Lan looked at Qin Jingwen in surprise, and even Qin Jingyi on the side felt unbelievable. 。"Don't worry about the money, I made some from this game, and Chu Yang will lend me the rest. " 。Just check it out whenever you have time. If it's still available, grab it before someone else does. 。"Qin Jingwen now has the ability to say such things" 。It's not just games, their company has made a lot of money too. 。With both sides combined and Chu Yang as her backer, she has nothing to worry about. 。"Why is it always Chu Gege who helps you Qiao Gege can't help at all, even though he's your boyfriend" 。" Qin Jingyi suddenly changed the subject, saying somewhat unhappily " 。The Qiao family originally thought we were only contacting them for money. Your sister even talked to them about money... 。"Warm Warm, none of us needs to spend any money right now. Let's wait until we have enough saved up before bringing this up." 。“Qin Lan quickly explained, not wanting to let Qin Jingwen take advantage of the Qiao family's money.” 。"Aunt, I understand what you're saying. It's not that I think money is very important, it's just that even if Qiao Ge said it casually, he should at least say something. For the sake of the two children, he should help out." 。“I can’t believe it,” Qin Jingyi said stubbornly. No matter what, the first person she thought of was always Chu Gege. Before her sister even spoke, he was the one who volunteered to help. 。He just couldn't understand how important his sister was to Qiao Shunchen. Even if his sister didn't say it, shouldn't he know what she wanted She had such high hopes for Qiao Shunchen, always thinking he was the best choice as her brother-in-law. 。It seems she misread it. 。"It has nothing to do with him, it's our own business and we don't need anyone else involved." 。Just like her gentle aunt Qin, she didn't expect anything from anyone, including Qiao Shunchen. 。Besides, she never told Qiao Shunchen about anything that happened in her family. How could he possibly know to help 。Qin Jingwen continued saying 。"Auntie, I have many ideas. Although I don't know if they will be completed, I want to try my best." 。” In two years, I will transfer the ownership of this house to Jing Yi's name, then buy back my aunt's old house, and our family's villa. Maybe I will even buy back Dad's company. “ 。“This is not Qin Jingwen's ambition, it's what Qin Jingwen should do.” 。These are all left by her father, she wants to help her father buy them back. 。Sister, I support your idea. 。But wait for me, I promise once I make money we'll buy back everything Dad had. 。Qin Jingyi of course supported it, but she wanted to work hard with her sister because she was a member of the Qin family. 。After hearing Qin Jingwen's idea, Qin Lan pondered for a moment before speaking. 。"I support your thinking in this way too." 。But be sure to take things at your own pace, don't rush. 。All of this adding up to a considerable sum, you shouldn't push yourselves too hard and risk getting hurt just because the goal is too big. 。Although we don't have the wealth we used to, we live a good life. 。Auntie doesn't ask for much, just hoping that you all will be safe and well. 。Qin Lan said this not because she knew too much. Once these things were exposed, all their dreams would come to nothing. 。Then the ones who will be hurt are them. 。"By the way, Wenwen, have you found that person who was injured in the accident" Qin Lan suddenly brought up the injured person again. She wanted to know if Qin Jingwen had continued to investigate. 。"No, there has never been a lead." 。I'll go find Officer Li in a few days and see if he can help me check the files. 。"icted day for Chu Yang. He had been happily accompanying Ban Yue, intending to recreate the delicious meal he once made for Qin Jingwen, only to end up feeling disheartened. 。What bothered him most w...
