Chapter 331 But, he was afraid...
Qiao Xingjia suddenly looked up, her eyes sparkling: "What do you mean by this?"
Shen Qingshu raised an eyebrow, "I'll give you a back door, sister."
Qiao Xingjia hesitated for a moment, "Really?"
"Would I lie to you?" Shen Qingshu said, "You can retake your photography major at Peking University. As long as you ask, Qin Yancheng will definitely make it happen for you. Compared to studying abroad, he will definitely think it's better for you to stay in Beicheng and retake your major. Then, you can work part-time at the company when you're not in class. I'll find a senior photography teacher to guide you. What do you think?"
"I think it's great!" Qiao Xingjia rushed over and hugged Shen Qingshu. "Qingshu, I love you. I swear, you are my dearest sister in this world!"
Shen Qingshu chuckled softly.
Qiao Xingjia is actually just a child at heart. If you reason with her properly, she will listen to your advice.
...
In the back garden, Xiao Nian'an and Xiao Anning were playing with Xiao Xingchen, who was about to celebrate his first birthday.
Fu Siyan and Qin Yancheng watched from the side.
Now that both brothers are fathers, they have one more thing to talk about.
Looking at Xiao Anning, Qin Yancheng sighed again, "I also want a daughter."
“My daughter is indeed thoughtful.” Fu Siyan looked at Xiao Anning with gentle eyes, clearly not prepared to comfort his brother at all.
Qin Yancheng glanced at him sideways and suddenly laughed.
His smile made Fu Siyan turn around and look at him, somewhat puzzled, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at you, you've really changed a lot."
Fu Siyan was slightly taken aback.
"Siyan, it's really good that things are like this now." Qin Yancheng patted his shoulder. "You really should thank Shen Qingshu. You made her suffer a lot back then, but she still insisted on keeping these two children. Although we all know that she didn't keep the children for you, you should still be grateful and glad that she didn't choose to give up the children because she hated you."
Many couples in this world break up, but not every woman is willing to give birth to her ex-husband's child alone after a divorce.
There are even cases where women mistreat their children, whom they carried for ten months, because they hate their ex-husbands.
Human nature is multifaceted and complex, and Qin Yancheng truly admires Shen Qingshu for being able to do this.
Moreover, Shen Qingshu knew nothing about Fu Siyan's situation at the time. All she felt was Fu Siyan's deception and humiliation, as well as Zhou Yu's repeated sabotage and framing...
Even now, when Qin Yancheng recalls it, he still feels that Fu Siyan was truly inhuman back then.
If he hadn't pressed him repeatedly, Fu Siyan wouldn't have been willing to confess to him.
Even Qin Yancheng, as Fu Siyan's friend, felt that Fu Siyan was going too far without knowing the truth, let alone Shen Qingshu.
Fu Siyan understood this, of course.
Therefore, he dares not hope that Shen Qingshu will turn back now.
If she recovers from her illness in the future, meets the right person, or remarries, he will sincerely wish her well and then silently protect Shen Qingshu and their two children until the end of his life.
But he was afraid.
I fear that the disease will even take away this last bit of protection...
"There's still no news about the bone marrow." Fu Siyan lowered his eyes and stared at the ground. "Yancheng, as long as she can be cured, I'll do anything for the rest of my life."
"There will be good news," Qin Yancheng could only comfort him in this way.
But bone marrow from rare blood types is not so easy to find.
"Mr. Han, please have a seat. I'll go find Sister Qing Shu."
Over there, Chi Guo'er led Han Mingyu over.
Upon hearing this name, Fu Siyan and Qin Yancheng turned around simultaneously.
Han Mingyu's gaze met Fu Siyan's.
"Mr. Fu and Dr. Qin are here too." Han Mingyu walked over and greeted them generously.
Fu Siyan and Qin Yancheng stood up and greeted him with a handshake.
Chi Guo'er went inside to find Shen Qingshu.
Fu Siyan asked, "Isn't President Han on a business trip?"
"Yes, but I don't want to miss President Shen's housewarming celebration," Han Mingyu replied with a faint smile.
The two men looked at each other, each with their own thoughts, each understanding their own.
Shen Qingshu came out of the house, followed by Chi Guo'er and Jiang Ruomi.
"President Han."
Han Mingyu turned around upon hearing the sound.
Shen Qingshu walked towards him, "Why did you come all this way so late?"
"Congratulations on moving!" Han Mingyu handed the gift bag to Shen Qingshu.
Shen Qingshu said with a hint of helplessness, "I'm very happy that President Han came, but we can skip the gift."
"Mr. Shen, you wouldn't be so formal with me, would you?" Han Mingyu looked at her, raising an eyebrow slightly. "We're friends after all. Mr. Shen wouldn't refuse such a small token of friendship, would he?"
Shen Qingshu had no choice but to accept it.
Fu Siyan stood to the side, watching the two of them, a hint of loneliness showing in his deep-set eyes.
Han Mingyu has been visiting frequently these past few days, but even though he knows Shen Qingshu is ill, he hasn't shown her much care.
He has high emotional intelligence and knows how to conduct himself appropriately. When Shen Qingshu is with him, she smiles more often.
Fu Siyan was also somewhat frustrated. He didn't have Han Mingyu's emotional intelligence, and he didn't know how to say nice things. In fact, when he and Shen Qingshu were alone, they mostly remained silent.
...
Shen Qingshu invited Han Mingyu to sit down.
Han Mingyu then sat down next to Shen Qingshu quite naturally.
Shen Qingshu looked at Qin Yancheng, "Xingxing had a little to drink and fell asleep on the sofa in the multimedia room."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yancheng frowned slightly, then stood up and said, "I'll go take a look."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Qin Yancheng left, Xiao Xingchen suddenly burst into tears.
Xiao Anning cried out anxiously, "Oh no, my little brother is crying! Uncle Qin, your son is crying!"
Qin Yancheng is not here.
Fu Siyan had no choice but to go and comfort Xiao Xingchen first.
Little Xingchen is still breastfeeding, and she starts crying when she gets sleepy.
Fu Siyan had never taken care of such a tiny baby before. The little chubby bundle of flesh was hard to soothe, and she had no idea how to comfort it. It was giving her a real headache.
Seeing Fu Siyan holding Xiao Xingchen and looking completely helpless, Shen Qingshu felt utterly helpless.
"Mr. Han, excuse me for a moment, I need to go check on my child."
Qin Yancheng and Qiao Xingjia are not here, and Wen Jingxi and Song Lanyin are nowhere to be found either.
At this moment, apart from Shen Qingshu, there really is no one else who can coax Xiao Xingchen.
She got up and walked to Fu Siyan's side. "Let me do it."
Fu Siyan looked at her and asked, "Are you alright? He's quite chubby."
Little Xingchen was raised to be chubby and plump, and felt heavy when held in one's arms.
Shen Qingshu was both amused and exasperated. "It's just a baby, I can easily carry it."
Upon hearing this, Fu Siyan handed the little star to Shen Qingshu.
Shen Qingshu took the child, gently bounced him, and coaxed him in a soft voice.
But even with Shen Qingshu's help, Xiao Xingchen recognized her mother.
He is now one year old and knows how to express and insist on his own needs.
"Mommy..." Little Xingchen cried out in a high-pitched voice, calling for her mother incoherently.
She cries so much that even Han Mingyu joined in comforting her.
But Little Star only wants her mother.
With no other option, Shen Qingshu could only carry Xiao Xingchen into the house to find Qiao Xingjia.
Fu Siyan was worried and followed her.
However, before entering the house, Fu Siyan instructed Chi Guo'er: "You take care of President Han for A Shu, and don't neglect the guest."
Chi Guo'er nodded, "Mr. Fu, rest assured, I will take good care of President Han."
...
Shen Qingshu carried the crying little Xingchen towards the multimedia room.
The door was ajar, and a heated argument could be heard coming from inside.
"Qin Yancheng, are you sick? Why did you tell my mom I drank alcohol?"
"You've already been drinking, so can't I even tell you the truth?"
"You knew perfectly well that my mother was against me weaning, yet you still deliberately complained! Qin Yancheng, don't think I don't know. You just don't want me to wean; you just want to keep me trapped. Let me tell you, I'm going to wean. I'm going to find a job tomorrow. I'm done being a housewife, this walking food bank! If you're afraid that you'll team up with my mother to stop me again, I'll divorce you!"
Qin Yancheng's voice suddenly rose several decibels: "Qiao Xingjia, that's enough! You're just talking nonsense when you're drunk!"
"I'm not drunk, I'm perfectly sober! I've had enough, Qin Yancheng, you're just like my mother, you're both so self-righteous, you both think you're doing this for me, and I'm thirty years old and you still expect me to listen to everything I do?! I have things I like too, I'm not just a daughter, not just a wife, not just a mother, I'm myself too!"
"Qiao Xingjia, all you're saying is that you're unwilling, and you still don't love me. Ever since you regained your memories, you've been extremely perfunctory in everything you do for this family. You don't love me, which is why you feel that Xiaoxingchen is hindering your pursuit of dreams, and why you feel that everything Mom does is controlling..."
"Yes! I don't love you! I regretted it as soon as I regained my memories! Qin Yancheng, I don't love you, I just don't love you. Are you satisfied now? Can you divorce me and let me go?"
Bang!
The sound of a wine bottle shattering came from the multimedia system.
Shen Qingshu's breath hitched, and she instinctively reached inside, holding the child.
Fu Siyan stopped her in time, saying, "Don't go in with the child. I'll go in and take a look first."
