were young..." 。If you had truly put yourselves in our shoes, things wouldn't have turned out this way. 。" Qiao Zixuan didn't want to hear his father's explanation. He felt that all explanations wer...Tao Chen proactively revealed that he was gay, which made Qiao Shunchen feel even more ashamed.

He didn't know how to answer Tao Chen without embarrassing him or hurting his pride. 。But this small problem stumped Qiao Shunchen, and in the end, he could only tell the truth. 。Yes, I understand. 。Song Xinzhe told me something I didn't know. 。I'm sorry. 。"How can I say sorry I should be thanking you instead." 。It makes me happy that you don't treat me differently because you know I'm not normal. 。Tao Chen was very comforted to hear such a heartfelt answer, at least proving that he was still considered a friend by them. 。"Tao Chen, I will take responsibility for your losses." 。" Joe Shun Chen came over not only to apologize but also to make amends. " 。Everything he has lost, he must take responsibility for. 。"My losses Warmwarm took on for me, even though for me it was a…" "I'll take responsibility, I have to." 。If you don't accept my apology, I won't be able to face you in the future. 。As for Winwin's money, you guys handle it yourselves, but your losses I have to take responsibility for. 。Jo Shun-chen didn't give Tao Chen a chance to refuse, his attitude was extraordinarily resolute. 。"Okay, but I didn't lose that much " 。After I finish selling the software from these two companies, I'll come to you to make up for my losses. How does that sound 。Tao Chen knew he couldn't go against Qiao Shunchen, and he didn't want to lose this friend. Helplessly, he could only agree

Okay, you can come find me then. 。"There's still work, you come to Qiao's help me out, I'm short-handed right now. 。As for the work, Qiao Shunchen is not included in the compensation. He's really short-staffed right now, after all, he doesn't have the heart to focus on work. 。"The salary and benefits are up to you. The company will provide a house and a car, as long as you come and help me quickly." 。Joe Shun-chen seemed somewhat eager. If Tao Chen helped him, he could relax a little about the company's affairs. 。As for work, we'll slow down first. 。“If you really need me, I will definitely go to the company” 。I don't need any cars or houses now. 。Tao Chen didn't immediately agree, but it wasn't a refusal. 。"Shunchen, a few projects in my hands need time to complete, most importantly Wenwen asked me to help with one thing" 。Her father left a USB drive when he was in a car accident, which may contain important things. 。But the file inside is severely damaged, and I'm trying to find a way to recover it for her. 。"I promised Wenwen that I would go to your company after I finished what I promised her," 。Tao Chen couldn't put these things in his hands down, and he couldn't let Qin Jingwen wait indefinitely, so he could only ask Qiao Shunchen to wait for a while. 。As for Qin Jingwen, Qiao Shunchen didn't ask much nor say much. 。He came to apologize, not mentioning Qin Jingwen. 。"OK, I'll be waiting for you" 。After Qiao Shunchen finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave. 。 Warmth has always liked you, even though you two are getting a divorce and there have been some unpleasant things that happened between you, she's still the person who loves you before. 。"I know you two might not have a chance, but I hope you'll let her leave gracefully, don't let her leave with hatred." 。"This is Tao Chen's heartfelt words, Tao Chen's advice, and also Tao Chen's hope. " 。He doesn't know what will happen to them in the end, but as long as Qin Jingwen doesn't suffer too much, he'll be thankful to Qiao Shunchen. 。This hope, Qiao Shunchen couldn't agree to, so Qiao Shunchen left in silence. 。In the evening, Qin Jingwen's home 。"Auntie, has Jing Yi contacted you these past two days" Qin Jingwen asked her aunt while washing dishes. 。"No I contacted you" 。 “I haven't been contacted either. " 。"What's wrong with this guy, why has he been so quiet for days" 。Although it had been several days since they last contacted each other, Qin Jingwen didn't seem to mind. 。After all, Qin Jingyi is so grown up, she's definitely able to take care of herself. 。“He might have just gotten tired of playing and didn’t contact us.” 。When you're done tidying up, we'll go find her video. 。Qin Lan didn't have anything to worry about. 。The two finished washing the dishes and came to the living room. Qin Jingwen picked up her phone and sent a video 。The video took a while to connect. 。"I'm already asleep, what are you guys doing"Qin Jingyi's side was indeed very dark, and her voice sounded like a whisper. 。Through the brightness of his phone, he could see Qin Jingyi. Her face was covered by the blanket, only a little bit showing. 。"You're sleeping this early"Qin Jingwen heard her sister's voice, and she was even less worried. 。"I've been hiking all day, I'm so tired." 。"I won't say any more, I'll get back to you tomorrow." 。"After Qin Jingyi finished speaking, she hung up the video call directly." 。"Before I could even ask her where she was, she hung up. Did she climb a few mountains" Qin Jingwen missed her little sister dearly. Two sentences weren't enough to express the heartache of longing, so she inevitably had to chat with her aunt about it. 。Let her sleep. If she wasn't tired, she wouldn't go to bed this early. 。When Qin Lan heard Qin Jingyi's voice, he felt sorry for her instead. 。Learning hasn't tired me to this extent, but climbing a mountain has left me completely exhausted. 。It seems she's still a child, without her parents around, she can't even control her temper. 。"After so many years by my side, just like that, suddenly leaving, I can't get used to it. " 。" Qin Jingwen chuckled self-deprecatingly. 。Although Qin Jingyi is her younger sister, Qin shows her love without reservation, just like she would care for her own child. 。"You two are inseparable, your bond is stronger than that of any other sisters." 。It's normal for you not to adjust. 。“ ” “Auntie, I didn’t even know Mom was pregnant. How did Jing Yi just come out” 。Maybe... maybe back then you didn't understand anything. 。" This question came a bit suddenly, so Qin Lan stuttered a bit when answering. 。"Back then, I was indeed very young, but as I grew older, I understood..." 。I honestly didn't know my mom was pregnant, and I never saw her with a big belly. 。"Auntie, do you think Jingyi might be a child adopted by our parents" Today Qin Jingwen didn't have many thoughts. She just spoke whatever came to mind. 。It was just a conversation with my aunt, and the content of the conversation was about our own families. It didn't involve her family because there was no need to be discreet. 。Though she had the intention to explore the truth, she never gave up on her feelings for Qin Jingyi. 。"Nonsense, how could it be picked up" 。Qin Lan was obviously a little flustered, luckily Qin Jingwen's attention wasn't on her at this time. 。“I’m not making things up” 。Look, her blood type is different from ours. That's very strange. 。Their blood types wouldn't...

"Don't doubt anything, Jing Yi is your parents' biological daughter" 。Qin Jingwen had only raised a point of doubt, but before she could analyze it further, Qin Lan interrupted her helplessly. 。This time Qin Lan's reaction caught Qin Jingwen's attention. 。Qin Jingwen raised her eyes and seriously interpreted her aunt's reaction. 。Ming Yi's obvious lineage made her aunt nervous, and it wasn't ordinary nervousness. Her face even changed color. 。Why Is Jing Yi really not her biological daughter If that's the case, and it's been so many years, Auntie shouldn't have kept it a secret from her, and there's no need to be so flustered. 。"Auntie, I'm all grown up now. There are some things I can handle." 。Even though I always had doubts, I never gave up on her. 。No matter if she was adopted or not, I treat her as my own younger sister. 。Qin Jingwen did not stop the topic because of her aunt's panic, on the contrary, she wanted to continue asking about it. 。Even if your aunt doesn't say anything, watching her reactions afterward will still be insightful. 。When Jing Yi was born, I was eight years old. There were some things I didn't understand at the time, but now that I think about it, I know how it happened. 。Actually, all these years whenever I think about it, I would question Jing Yi's true identity. I even wondered if she was my dad's illegitimate daughter outside of marriage, and my mom was so generous..."

Qin Jing Wen wanted to elaborate on her thoughts about this matter over the years, but halfway through, her aunt couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted her.

"Don't be ridiculous, your dad loves your mother so much, how could he possibly have a child out of wedlock" 。"Don't overthink it, you said yourself, no matter what, she's your own sister. That's all that matters." 。"I'm tired, I'm going to rest in my bedroom for a while. " 。Qin Lan this time was not just flustered, but also had some excitement mixed in, even getting up and running away. 。"Auntie…" Qin Jingwen called out to her aunt, but Qin Lan didn't even turn her head. 。Qin Jingwen was even more puzzled and confused. 。She wasn't adopted, she wasn't her father's illegitimate daughter, her mother hadn't had a big belly and it was impossible that she was her mother's illegitimate daughter, so where did Qin Jingyi come from After Qin Jingyi hung up the phone, she got out of bed, and the lamp on her bedside table turned on. 。The room was lit but dim. 。At this moment, she was indeed very tired. After the video call with her elder sister and aunt, she felt even more exhausted. 。But she was tired not in body but in mind. 。She went out to clear her head, but she ended up staying in her hotel room alone, lost in thought and drowning her sorrows in alcohol. 。I just drank some alcohol, and I'm afraid my aunt and sister will notice, so I turned off the lights and covered half of my face. 。 "Sigh..." Such a sigh, Qin Jingyi didn't know how many times she would experience it in a day. 。She only knew she was going to be destroyed by sighs. 。"How could I be my aunt's child How could I be Uncle Joe's child" 。I have a father and mother, and I also have an older sister. How could I possibly be someone else's child"

One question followed another, Qin Jingyi could only ask herself, but no one gave her an answer

"Sister, I'm your own younger sister. We'll be together for life." 。I don't want to leave you, you have to support me for life. 。Qin Jingyi spoke to herself, but she couldn't control the tears streaming down her face. 。Since her parents passed away, she has also been very tired. 。Although I don't feel as mentally and physically drained as my sister, I still carry a heavy burden. This feeling is really exhausting, tiring me to the point of wanting to escape. 。Even in this situation, she still had to accept the blow of being unable to go abroad. 。Now, there's even a most unacceptable origin story. 。She couldn't take it anymore, shouldn't she just die 。"Sis, if you knew I wasn't your real sister, how would you live" 。Is there anyone else left in this world besides you 。"Sister, I'm sorry, I didn't know things would turn out like this. " 。"

Qin Jingyi wept, she didn't know why her own life story made her feel sorry for her elder sister.

" 。For so many years, her older sister had sacrificed so much for her. The result She wasn't even her real sister. This fact was unbearable, not just for the older sister, but for her as well. 。While crying, she would also drink. Only after getting drunk could Qin Jingyi stop overthinking and sleep soundly, so that she wouldn't feel guilty towards her elder sister. 。n took two steps and was called back by Qiao Shunchen. 。The voice was still cold. 。"Something the matter" Qin Jingwen didn't turn around, just facing away from Qiao Shunchen as she asked. 。"Can you t...
