Chapter 743: Vague and Evasive Veil

antasy than reality. 。If she could lessen her love for Joe Shuntchen, she wouldn't be so deeply ensnared and unable to extricate herself. 。"No, your love for me can only grow deeper, it absolutely can...Qiao Liang began to recount the past

"Our marriage was arranged by your grandfather and your great-uncle. We were both forced into it." 。At the beginning of our marriage, we were like strangers, treating each other with politeness and respect. After you all came along, our relationship eased up a bit. 。But that's not love, it's just the result of spending a lot of time together and having ties between you. At best, it's familial affection. 。Recalling the past, recalling the deceased wife 。There was no regret or guilt on Qiao Liang's face. 。He felt no remorse for his deceased wife and had no apologies to offer her. 。Father's words made Qiao Yu understand that what he was waiting for wasn't his mother, but the missing woman. 。"You have filial piety towards your mother, but what your mother has for you is love." 。Otherwise she wouldn't have committed suicide by jumping off a building because of you. 。She couldn't accept your betrayal, accepting…" "It wasn't my fault, she chose to commit suicide, it has nothing to do with me." 。"

Qiao Liang, overwhelmed with excitement, interrupted Qiao Yu before she could finish her sentence and said this.

" 。"Dad, what do you mean by that" 喬雨驚愕地問道喬梁 。She heard her father's words clearly. Everyone believed that her mother jumped to her death because she couldn't accept her father's behavior. 。Back then, Dad didn't refute Mom's claim either, effectively accepting her explanation for his involvement in her death. 。More than twenty years have passed, why is Dad saying he has nothing to do with it again 。 Qiao Yu's shocked tone suddenly brought Qiao Liang back to his senses. How could he have let himself blurt it out 。"It's nothing, everything has passed, it doesn't matter who was right or wrong." 。" Qiao Yu, you only need to know that your father is not a despicable person, he's not someone who wouldn't face his responsibilities. " 。Jo Liang did not give an explanation, but instead vaguely dodged the question. 。"Dad..." "Qiao Yu, your mother has passed away. We need to respect her." 。Between you and my mother, we both know what happened. Let's just drop it. 。Qiao Liang didn't let Qiao Yu continue asking, and he regretted his impulsive behavior. 。"Okay, I won't tell Mom" 。"That woman, have you been waiting for that woman all this time" Qiao Yu didn't press further, but she guessed there must be something between her mom and dad that they didn't know. 。Dad is not a dirty person, he is more honest than anyone. 。Dad is not someone who shies away from responsibility. 。It's not his fault, he could have even helped to share the burden. 。So it all depends on the father's quality, he believes in his father 。But that woman made Dad lonely for so many years, made Dad wait for so many years. This is a knot in her heart. 。"Sigh…"Joe Liang first let out a sigh, then calmly spoke. 。" Qiao Yu, you've grown up. You've experienced love and marriage. " 。Some things, some emotions you understand better than I do. 。"

I've lived with your mother for so many years, although we don't have feelings for each other, I never thought of betraying her, and I haven't had feelings for any other women. " 。But Qin Lan is different. To me, she is true love. 。"I'm very happy with Qin Lan, and I plan to divorce your mother and marry Aunt Qin." 。But I didn't handle this well, and your grandfather found out. 。What kind of person is your grandfather You know, he won't allow my marriage to have problems. Even if the marriage can't last, it must be a match made in heaven and beneficial for both families. 。While Qiao Liang was speaking, he kept sighing and lamenting. 。When talking about Qin Lan, there was too much guilt in her eyes. 。The expression, tone, and attitude were more melancholy and wistful when speaking about his wife. 。Joe Yu listened quietly on one side, although her father's attitude towards mentioning her mother was completely different from his attitude towards Qin Lan, which made Joe Yu heartbroken, but she still didn't interrupt her father. 。Just like father said, mother has passed away, and for over twenty years... 。Regardless of who is right or wrong, it's ultimately irreparable and irreplaceable. All they can do is face reality. 。And the father, still alive, lived in pain, always living in self-blame and regret, and alone until he reached middle age. 。This was the first time in over twenty years that he had taken the initiative to bring up past events. If her father was willing, she temporarily wanted to be a listener, wanting her father to pour out all the suppressed emotions in his heart. 。 Qiao Liang continued. 。"Your Aunt Qin is just a simple doctor. My brother has a construction company." 。But this construction company just couldn't win over your grandfather's heart. 。"Your grandpa's interference blew the whole thing out of proportion." 。Qin Lan originally didn't know I had a family with two children. Your grandfather forcibly took her away, told my situation, and even threatened me with curses. 。"This incident hit your Aunt Qin hard. She feels betrayed by me, and she even denies my feelings for her. 。I deceived her, and I owe her. 。For so many years I've been waiting, waiting for a chance to see her again and apologize, to say sorry. 。Qiao Liang didn't hide his feelings for Qin Lan. He only expressed his true thoughts, so the child could gradually understand and accept them. 。...and then spread to Qiao Shunchen and Qin Jingwen's bodies. 。After waiting for over twenty years, it truly wasn't in vain. I finally waited for them to come back. 。But Qiao Liang didn't expect that they would be entangled together because of the feelings of the next generation. 。"You were all young back then and you all pushed the blame onto Qin Lan." 。Your attacks, combined with your grandfather's coercion and emotional pressure, have left her jobless and forced her to leave. 。"These are all my fault, it's my selfishness and deliberate concealment that hurt Qin Lan " 。" Qiao Liang spoke of past memories, some he could say, and some he couldn't. 。 。Throughout it all, Qiao Yu had been listening quietly. From her father's words, she heard only his guilt and admiration for Qin Lan, but not a single word about the hurt he had caused her mother. 。This is a bit much for Qiao Yu to handle. 。"Dad, the hurt that's being hidden isn't just Qin Lan's, it's Mom's too" 。Jo Yu appealed to her mother on behalf of her mom, trying to restore her mother's sense of existence. 。"I didn't hide anything from your mom, she was the first to know about me and Qin Lan." 。"Well, I'm not going to say anything about your mother." 。She said that she wouldn't be happy even if she were underground. 。Joe kept probing, then quickly shut the topic down. 。 Qiao Yu once again respected her father, although she found places of doubt, she did not pursue them. 。 Qiao Liang sighed again. 。"Dad said these things, I don't know if you can believe them, but I ask myself with a clear conscience, I can assure you that every word I said is true. " 。“ Qiao Liang assured himself of everything he said, hoping Qiao Yu could understand him, starting from Qin Lan’s difficulties, to let go and be tolerant. ” 。"Dad, I believe everything you said." 。"I want to ask you, if Qin Lan came back, would you still want to be with her" Qiao Yu unconditionally believed what her father said, but she unexpectedly asked such a question. 。As for her father's long wait, Qiao Yu said she understands. 。But from a mother's perspective, she still couldn't accept it at the moment. 。But when Dad mentioned Qin Lan, the loneliness and dejection in his eyes made Qiao Yu feel heartbroken. 。One person can be alone for a day, or even a year, but what is it like to be lonely for more than twenty years 。At this moment, Qiao Yu felt that it was precisely Qin Lan's presence, and it was precisely such an unwavering wait that allowed her father to endure for so many years. 。"If she comes back, if she's willing, and if you and Shunchen can mend your broken bond and agree to be together..." 。I still hope to be with her. 。After all, we're getting older, and no one knows how much longer we have. 。I want to use the remaining time to make up for what I owe her, and I also want to feel happiness in the rest of my time. 。Joe Liang did not hide his true feelings, and there was nothing he deliberately avoided about his love for Qin Lan. 。If he remains silent and retreats at this time, then Qiao Shunchen and Qin Jingwen's life will be ruined. 。Joe looked at his father, listening to his heart, and suddenly felt that his father was the most pitiful person in the world. 。He said that he didn't know what love was when he was with his mother. Finally, he met love and understood it. His grandfather's one wrong thought ruined his father's desire for love. 。Thus, a lifetime of the father could be said to have brushed past love and never retrieved it. 。This is not only pitiful but also lamentable. 。"Dad, after all these years, haven't you heard anything from her" Joe Yu asked tentatively, unsure if she would be able to forgive Qin Lan, but right now she really wanted her father to be happy, truly wanted to see a smile that came from the heart. 。"Sigh... Qiao Yu, Dad has a question for you..." 。"If Aunt Qin Lan found you and agreed to be with your dad" Qiao Liang didn't answer, but asked a question instead. 。He didn't want to deceive the child, but he couldn't bring himself to say that Qin Lan had already come back. 。Only one question can mask the problem of Qiao Yu. 。She thought about it, but at this moment she didn't know how to answer. 。"Can't accept it, can you Still hate me, do you Sigh… Actually, Dad has been quite a failure all his life. Everyone hates me, only your mother understood me, but unfortunately she's gone…" 。"

Joe knew it would be like this, knowing that the child wouldn't forgive him so easily >>> 。If their mother hadn't chosen suicide back then, things probably wouldn't be like this now. 。It won't be so bad that everyone is heartbroken, and he won't become an object of hatred by everyone. 。She took her own life, blaming him for everything and leaving him to face all the consequences. 。He is a man, he doesn't care how much he bears, but who can replace the harm and pain brought to the child 。Sometimes, thinking about the changes in the two children after their mother's death, thinking about the emotions they have suppressed for so many years, thinking about all the sunshine they have rejected, Qiao Liang also hates his wife. 。However, hatred also does not solve problems. 。On her way home, Qiao Yu felt weighed down by the conversation she had with her father. 。On one hand, I felt sympathy for my father; on the other, I felt sorry for my mother's grievance. 。The father said he didn't owe his mother anything, but who was going to pay the price for her death 。 Qiao Yu recalled what her father had said, especially the way he hesitated when talking about her mother. 。He said his mother was the first to know about his infidelity, and looking back, there was evidence to support it. 。At that time, both she and Qiao Shunchen lost control of their emotions when they knew their father had cheated. However, their mother remained calm as if nothing had happened. 。Now that I think about it, if I hadn't known beforehand, there's no way I could have been so calm. 。However, Mother was the first to know why she didn't expose her father. Not exposing him meant being able to tolerate him, but why did she choose suicide 。What secrets do parents have that their children don't know 。 >nswered, his emotions also being influenced by this topic. 。"When will that knot in your heart open" Qin Jingwen took the opportunity to continue asking. 。If she could say another word that would loo...
