Chapter 495: Wishful Thinking (Page 1/2)

Qiao Yan pushed Wen Wan away and looked at her in shock. "Wan Wan, have you forgiven Qiao Sitian? Have you forgotten who hit you on the head and sent you to the hospital for emergency treatment?"

Wen Wan's eyes flashed, "I'm fine now, and she didn't do it on purpose. Besides, she's dead, so there's no need for us to hate her anymore."

Qiao Yan couldn't quite understand his wife. Qiao Sitian had almost killed her before, but now she chose to forgive him.

He didn't know how to face such a wife, and his heart was full of contradictions and confusion.

Qiao Yan was silent for a moment and then said, "Wanwan, I know you are kind, but this matter is not so easy to let go.

Qiao Sitian has done so many things that have hurt us, and even in death, we cannot easily forgive her."

Wen Wan sighed softly, "I know she did a lot of excessive things, but she's already dead. Should we continue to hold a grudge against her? Didn't you tell me to learn to let go?"

Qiao Yan frowned, "Wanwan, don't forget, she threatened our biological daughter and almost hit you to death. These are unforgivable actions."

Wen Wan lowered her head, a trace of sadness flashing in her eyes, "Brother Yan, let the past be the past, we should look forward.

Don't complain about her anymore. That child doesn't even appear in my dreams anymore. The New Year is coming soon, and I don't know if she's doing well down there."

Qiao Yan held Wen Wan's hand tightly and took a deep breath, "Wan Wan, I understand your thoughts, but sometimes we have to face reality.

What Qiao Sitian did has caused us great harm, and we cannot pretend that nothing happened.

You should think more about our biological daughter. Don't you want to take her back?"

Wen Wan raised her head and looked at Qiao Yan, "I know, but what can I do? That girl doesn't like us at all, how can we recognize her?"

Qiao Yan pinched his forehead and said, "Okay, Qiao Sitian is dead, and that child will never come back. Let's just live our own lives in peace. Don't cry at every turn in the future, and don't mention Qiao Sitian in front of my parents.

The New Year is coming soon, let's think about happy things. If you have time, please pay more attention to Siyuan's wife. I see that she looks very bad recently and vomits frequently. She might be pregnant.

"I see. I'll ask her tomorrow to see if she's really pregnant."

Qiao Yan thought to himself that after his daughter-in-law gave birth to a child, his wife would not be so worried and crying all day long like she was now.

As for the child, if she doesn't want to recognize them as her parents, then let her be.

However, no matter what, she is her own daughter after all! So, if she needs help in the future, she will definitely lend a hand without hesitation.

When the situation stabilizes, he plans to find a way to transfer her to a government agency, so that at least they will have more opportunities to meet in the future.

Over time, I believe she will gradually accept and recognize their family.

However, Qiao Yan didn't know that even if she arranged a job for Lin Man or gave her a mountain of gold,

Lin Man would never recognize them in this life, let alone accept the job he offered her.

This is simply a foolish dream! It can only be said that Qiao Yan not only likes to dream, but also has wishful thinking.

Who does he think he is? Just because he's rich and powerful, does that mean she has to acknowledge him as her father? He's so self-righteous!

If Lin Man knew what was going on in Qiao Yan's mind at the moment, she would definitely say without hesitation: "There's something wrong with your brain."

She said that she would never have any contact with the Qiao family in this life. Not to mention arranging a job for her in a government agency, even if she was arranged to work in the central government, she would never recognize Qiao Yan as her biological father.

Her life goal is to raise her four children well and make a lot of money when the opportunity comes. When the children grow up, she will completely relax and travel whenever she has time to see the scenery she has never seen before.

During the last few days of the year, Lin Man was extremely busy. She was either taking Xiao Hua to do the cleaning or preparing New Year's goods.

Xiao Huanian was going back on the 29th, and on the 28th, Lin Man took a bus to the city alone and went to the department store to buy new clothes for the children for the New Year.

As luck would have it, she met Wen Wan and another young woman again. Lin Man didn't try to guess the identity of the young woman, and she didn't rush to leave this time.

Wen Wan was stunned when she saw Lin Man. Zhang Yanqiu saw her mother-in-law standing there stupidly, motionless, and asked her, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Wen Wan hesitated whether to go over and say hello to Lin Man, but found that Lin Man turned her head away and ignored her. She knew that if she went up to Lin Man, she would definitely argue with her.

She couldn't afford to lose face in front of this person. Wen Wan was still hesitating whether to go over. Lin Man walked away with the candies and biscuits she had bought.

Seeing that her mother-in-law didn't say anything and kept looking at the tall woman with bright features, Zhang Yanqiu wondered, could it be that they knew each other?

"Mom, do you know that tall woman?"

Wen Wan nodded, then shook her head, "No...I don't know him."

"Oh, I think she has some similar facial features to Mom. I thought you two were relatives."

That's her biological daughter, isn't it normal that they look somewhat similar?

"Yanqiu, buy some New Year's goods first. Weigh out some candies and biscuits today. Take them back to your parents' home to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the New Year."

"Thanks, Mom. I'll get in line now."

Ever since her mother-in-law found out about her pregnancy, she has been particularly concerned about her, buying her all kinds of supplements and even taking her with her to buy New Year's goods.

Before going to bed, Zhang Yanqiu asked Qiao Siyuan, "Siyuan, I noticed that Mom was very abnormal after coming back from the department store today. She was in a low mood and had a sullen face."

Some time ago, when his mother learned that his wife was pregnant, she was very happy. Why is she suddenly unhappy now?

Could it be that the New Year is coming, and his mother is thinking of Qiao Sitian again? Qiao Siyuan thought about it and thought about it, and still felt that his mother was thinking about that adopted sister again.

"Maybe you're thinking about my deceased sister?"

"Didn't you say that your sister almost killed your mother-in-law? Why would your mother-in-law still miss her?

Today in the department store, I saw a very beautiful woman, tall and with features that resembled my mother a bit..."

Before Zhang Yanqiu finished speaking, Qiao Siyuan wanted to say, "Yanqiu, isn't that older sister about the same height as Dad? Her eyes are also very similar to Dad's."

Zhang Yanqiu was surprised: "How did you know?"

"Yanqiu, that older sister might be my biological sister."

"Since she's your biological sister, why doesn't mother-in-law go over and say hello to her? Even if you don't interact with her at all, a normal greeting should be ok, right?"
