Chapter 149: Settlement (1/2)



Chapter 149: Clarity

Seeing that her face was pale, Zhao Sihai was afraid of irritating her further, so he smiled and softened his expression, "Sure enough, Qiao Qiao also said the same thing. She said that her family loved her very much and would definitely not say something like that to make her sad."

Upon hearing this, both of them breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but cover their pounding hearts, their breathing becoming a little rapid.

But unlike the panic and fear just now, this time it was astonishment and surprise.

They had prepared for the worst, but they didn't expect it to turn out like this.

Didn't Qiao Qiao fall into the trap?

But after the surprise, what followed was even deeper self-blame and sadness.

My daughter is so smart. If she finds anything unusual, she will definitely guess that there is something complicated behind this.

Maybe in order not to affect or harm them, they will choose to endure the grievances and sufferings silently.

Isn't this exactly what she has been doing with all her energy and approach over the years?

Thinking of this, Liao Shiyun's heart ached even more, as if she was being cut by blood and it hurt so much that she couldn't breathe.

Over a period of 10 years and more than a thousand days and nights, her heart ached when she thought of her daughter living in fear and worry every day.

She unconsciously clutched the clothes on her chest and took a few breaths with difficulty, but in the end she couldn't help but burst into tears with trembling lips.

Zhao Sihai and An An were both frightened by her sudden change.

An An was completely confused, but he had been holding his grandmother's wrist and could feel the abnormality of her pulse at the moment. Her mood was fluctuating too quickly.

Suddenly, he patted her back anxiously and looked at his father for help.

Zhao Sihai didn't expect the other party to react like this, and he became nervous.

He hurriedly handed the water to her, and nervously comforted her, "Don't be excited, everything is fine now, it's all over, Qiao Qiao is fine now, really."

Liao Shiyun just pursed her lips, cried and shook her head.

Zhao Sihai could only look at Ruoyao, hoping that she could comfort him.

But it was obvious that what Liao Shiyun could think of, Ruoyao also thought of, so her emotions at the moment were no less unstable than hers. She directly covered her eyes with a handkerchief and her shoulders trembled violently.

At this moment, they would even rather their daughter/little sister didn't find out anything, would rather she be completely disappointed in them and no longer miss them, even if it means hating them.

An An was even more at a loss. She was trying to appease this and that, and she was simply too busy to handle it.

Zhao Sihai was also confused and immediately turned to look at Zhao Huai.

Zhao Huai was holding a stack of clean handkerchiefs in his hand, and he handed them to Xiao one by one without even looking at him.

He turned to look at Old Zhao who was still standing at the door. Seeing that the other party didn't even turn his head, he could only sigh helplessly.

"Or, I'll go find Qiao Qiao first..."

"Don't!" The two people who were crying immediately stopped them in unison.

Liao Shiyun wiped her tears and said, "Don't disturb her work, we're fine." She sniffed and burped a few times, then met her son-in-law's conflicted gaze and felt embarrassed.

She stood up quickly and asked, "Where is the bathroom? I'll wash my face first."

"Oh, over there, An An is taking grandma to the toilet." Zhao Sihai secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she finally stopped crying.

"Me too." Yu Ruoyao immediately stood up and followed him.

Only after both of them were gone did Zhao Sihai let out a sigh of relief.

Zhao Huai followed along, and now only he and Old Zhao, who looked like a statue outside the door, were left.

He smoothed his hair, turned and went into the kitchen, took out a few eggs and put them in water to boil.

It took the four of them a while to come back.
