Chapter 908 Don't you find it strange?
Qin Liang glared at her angrily, "Don't you know what you just did? Apologize right now, or I'll have to say it a second time!"
"Dad! I'm your daughter, how can you side with outsiders!" Qin Fei complained, feeling wronged.
Qin Liang showed no mercy and insisted that Qin Fei apologize, saying, "You're such a grown woman, yet you still speak and act so tactlessly. Do I need to teach you how to be polite?"
"dad!"
Qin Fei's tears kept welling up in her eyes.
She glared angrily at Qiao Xing, her eyes filled with hatred as if she wanted to devour her.
Qiao Xing knew that Qin Fei was petty, and she didn't want Qin Fei to hold a grudge against her because of this.
That would only create more trouble later.
She forced a smile and said to Qin Liang, "Dad, Feifei just chatted with me for a few minutes, it's nothing, she doesn't need to apologize."
To everyone's surprise, Qin Fei not only didn't appreciate Qiao Xing's words, but also retorted angrily, "You don't need to pretend here! Who are you putting on an act for!"
"Qin Fei!"
Qin Fei roared, "I won't apologize, I'd rather die than apologize!"
After saying that, she ran out crying.
Worried that something might have happened to her, Qin Liang quickly sent the family's servants out to check on her.
At the same time, he was very troubled, as neither his son nor his daughter was easy to deal with.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward after Qin Fei left.
Just as Qiao Xing was thinking of an excuse to leave, Qin Liang suddenly said to her, "Feifei is immature and may offend you in any way. Please forgive her."
Throughout the day, both Qin Liang and Wang Yu said the same thing to Qin Fei, which made Qiao Xing feel somewhat overwhelmed.
She quickly waved her hand, "Dad, you're too kind. I didn't think Feifei offended me. She's still young, I won't hold it against her."
As for Wang Yu, it was one thing. Although Qiao Xing didn't know what kind of person Wang Yu really was, at least she was kind and gentle to her from the beginning, or rather, that was the kind of personality she maintained in front of everyone, so Qiao Xing wasn't surprised at all.
But if other people did the same, it would shock Qiao Xing.
For example, Qin Liang.
You should know that he never accepted Qiao Xing from the very beginning.
This sudden change was really hard for Qiao Xing to accept.
Fortunately, after Qin Liang finished saying those two sentences, he didn't say anything else, but turned around and left.
Qiao Xing even had a slight doubt that he had just been hallucinating.
When Qin Ce and his grandfather entered the house, they saw Qiao Xing standing quietly in the living room, lost in thought.
"Star, what are you doing here?"
Hearing Grandpa Qin's words, Qiao Xing came back to her senses. "It's nothing, Grandpa. I just came down to get a glass of water. Are you back from your walk?"
"Well, I'm a little tired after walking around, I'll go back to my room to rest first."
After Grandpa Qin finished speaking, he went upstairs.
Qin Ce said to Qiao Xing, "Let's go, I'll sleep with you for a while too?"
Qiao Xing is currently in her second trimester. As the baby grows bigger every day, she has trouble sleeping every night due to various pregnancy symptoms.
Sometimes I have to urinate frequently, sometimes I have leg cramps, and sometimes I even experience rib pain, swelling and other symptoms.
Although it wasn't very obvious, it still kept Qiao Xing up all night.
During her previous prenatal checkup, the doctor told Qiao Xing that she should sleep at least one to two hours every day.
A pregnant woman needs sufficient sleep to maintain a good mood.
But Qiao Xing would rush to the company as soon as she got up, busy all day long, so she didn't even have time to take a nap, and sometimes she didn't even have time to eat.
Although she wasn't that busy with work at the company, she was the type of person who would put in 200% effort when doing something.
Many things are unconsciously left behind.
For example, eating, and sleeping.
Qin Ce has already talked to her about this many times.
Now that he's in Chongqing because of Grandpa Qin's matter, he can let Qiao Xing focus on her pregnancy without any distractions.
Qiao Xing was still thinking about what had just happened. She looked around and decided to take Qin Ce to her room to talk to him about it.
Back in the bedroom, Qiao Xing slammed the door shut.
Seeing her acting mysteriously, Qin Ce asked, "What's wrong?"
Qiao Xing recounted the whole story to Qin Ce.
Her intention was to tell Qin Ce that Qin Liang's attitude towards her was very different from before.
To everyone's surprise, Qin Ce misunderstood the point. He asked Qiao Xing in a cold voice, "Did Qin Fei cause you trouble again?"
Qiao Xing paused, then angrily wanted to punch him, "That's not what I wanted to tell you!"
"I know, but I'm more concerned about what's going on between you and Qin Fei."
Qiao Xing said, "She just likes to act like a spoiled princess. I'm too lazy to argue with her, and I don't take her words to heart at all. I don't need to pay attention to her."
Qin Ce thought to himself, "She's been acting so presumptuously for a long time. If we don't teach her a lesson, she'll only become more and more arrogant."
"But that's not what I really want to talk to you about!" Qiao Xing tried to steer the conversation towards Qin Liang. "Don't you find that strange?"
Qin Ce understood what she meant, but he didn't see anything wrong with it. "What's strange? Isn't it normal?"
"No, this is not normal at all. Today, he not only acknowledged my identity in front of Qin Fei, but also said those things to me because of Qin Fei. This doesn't seem like something he would say."
Qin Ce scoffed, "Everyone has two sides. Do you think Wang Yu would actually say those things? It's all just acting. What's so surprising about that?"
“This is different,” Qiao Xing said confidently.
"What's different?"
"To be honest with you, although Wang Yu was very kind and considerate to me from the beginning, I always felt that she was wearing a mask, and the real her was underneath the mask."
Qin Ce corrected her, "It's not just a suggestion, it is her."
Hypocritical; saying one thing and meaning another.
Qiao Xing glared at him, telling him not to interrupt her.
“But your father is different. Although he didn’t accept me from the beginning, that was his truest attitude. Just like now, the things he said to me were also his truest attitude.”
Qin Ce stared at her. "What are you trying to say?"
Qiao Xing expressed her inner thoughts, "I think that when he said that, it wasn't because he really accepted me, but rather because he wanted to express his attitude towards me through me."
Qin Ce said calmly, "Didn't you just say that was his truest attitude? How did it become that he doesn't really accept you?"
“You are his son, and you are the one with blood ties to him. Even if he has any attitude towards you, it is for your sake. But you also know what your relationship was like before. How could he, as a father, bow down to you so directly?”
Qiao Xing said definitively, "I think he just wants to ease the tension between you two and give you a way out in a roundabout way."
