Suddenly, Shen Haiyang stood up, causing the dining chair to fall to the ground with a loud thud.
This startled Wen Qiao, who had been silently eating her fried dough sticks.
She suddenly jolted awake and looked up.
Seeing that Shen Haiyang had already walked far to the door.
She turned to look at Shen Jichuan again. His expression was calm, but he sighed softly.
Noticing Wen Qiao looking at him, Shen Jichuan picked up a piece of fried dough and placed it on the plate in front of her.
"Eat more if you like it."
His tone was indifferent and calm, as if he wasn't angry at Shen Haiyang for throwing the stool and leaving.
Wen Qiao didn't dare to ask any more questions, and simply said softly, "Thank you."
However, one could vaguely see from Shen Jichuan's face that he was still somewhat disappointed in Shen Haiyang.
Indeed, after all, he is the son I raised with all my heart.
Now, for the sake of a woman, father and son have become enemies.
Anyone would be angry in this situation.
Wen Qiao saw that Shen Jichuan, this old man, had a hard life, and her heart softened a little.
She gently advised, "Sir, there are some things I shouldn't have said, but I still want to tell you that a child is always closer to their own flesh and blood. Whether you hit him or scold him, in the end you will still feel that you, as the father, are doing it for his own good."
Shen Jichuan looked at Wen Qiao and offered a few unexpected explanations.
"When I adopted him, it was mostly out of impulse."
“His father was a martyr. Not long after his sacrifice, his mother fell ill and passed away. He cried until his eyes were red in the hospital, but when he saw people coming to pay their respects, he still politely said thank you for visiting my mother.”
At the time, he felt that Shen Haiyang was so much like him when he was young.
I felt a pang of compassion.
Shen Jichuan said, "I don't regret adopting him. I can only blame myself for not raising him well."
"Wen Qiao, I misunderstood you when you came to the Shen family. I apologize to you."
"The ocean holds more prejudices against you than anything else."
"I believe that once he understands what kind of person you are, he definitely won't be so cold to you anymore."
Wen Qiao said nonchalantly, "It's not that he's prejudiced against me, it's that he wants to marry Yang Xuelan, so he can't tolerate me anymore. I've also figured it out, what's not mine, I don't need to be obsessed with."
Wen Qiao roughly understood that no matter what Shen Haiyang did, in Shen Jichuan's eyes, he was just a child.
Shen Jichuan instinctively wanted to protect Shen Haiyang.
Wen Qiao chuckled softly and said in a low voice:
"Sir, I've thought about what you said to me before. I'll move out of the Shen family's house after some time."
"I will gradually pay you back the money I borrowed from you before."
“You’re right. Being strong yourself is more reliable than getting married. Also, I will definitely bring my mother out of the countryside in the future.”
Wen Qiao's words can be considered an answer to the question Shen Jichuan had raised with her earlier.
She has made her choice.
She wanted to get revenge on Shen Haiyang.
But Shen Jichuan's understanding and apology unexpectedly made Wen Qiao feel at ease.
“Sir, you are different from Shen Haiyang.”
"Furthermore, his marriage to Chief Yang's daughter may not be out of true love. What he wants is your high-ranking and powerful father, and your father-in-law who is a high-ranking cadre in the military region. These identities are what will boost his future."
Wen Qiao, in a way, gave Shen Jichuan a kind reminder at the last moment.
As an adoptive father, Shen Jichuan was quite qualified.
He never hesitated to spend money on Shen Haiyang, whether it was food or drink.
Even when it comes to studying, Shen Jichuan would make the best arrangements for him.
It has to be said, Shen Haiyang is truly lucky.
He lost his biological parents, but gained a foster father who truly cared for him.
In this respect, Wen Qiao greatly admired Shen Haiyang.
Her statement just now was something she understood only after drawing upon her experiences from her past life.
Shen Haiyang's decision to marry Yang Xuelan was certainly not solely based on her beauty and kindness towards him.
Furthermore, it was because Yang Xuelan's father was a military cadre leader.
Shen Haiyang was also afraid that Shen Jichuan would abandon him in the future.
He married Yang Xuelan in order to gain the support of the Yang family.
For him, this is naturally a guarantee for his future.
