Zhao Dong did exactly that at first, trying to please Xie Qian and build a closer relationship with him, even supporting Zhao Qian in pursuing him. Is premature love unacceptable? Perhaps none of the Zhao siblings had such a concept.
Wen Ying asked the key questions and also asked about Xie Qian's embarrassing privacy.
At first, one of the reasons why Xie Qian became close to Wen Ying was because he accidentally overheard Wen Ying making a phone call. Wen Ying hired a private detective to investigate her uncle Deng Shangwei's infidelity, and her decisive approach resonated with Xie Qian.
Although he was reckless, he was very free to do what he wanted, which was what Xie Qian envied.
Why should the victim be forced to compromise and save face for the perpetrator who did the wrong thing?
Wen Ying did what Xie Qian couldn't do. He found projection in Wen Ying and followed Wen Ying to the music academy to make a scene, which made Xie Qian feel very involved!
Later I learned that Deng Shangwei's "cheating" had not yet become an established fact, at least according to Wen Ying's investigation results... Deng Shangwei might not have been tempted, because Wen Ying chose the right time to intervene, and Deng Shangwei was forced to stop as soon as the signs of cheating appeared.
But the evidence of Xie Jinghu's betrayal is conclusive and no one can defend him.
The Ferris wheel rose to its highest point.
The blue sky and white clouds, the handsome boy and the round-faced girl all exude a youthful aura. If someone presses the shutter at this moment, it will become a moving wallpaper without any retouching.
Wen Ying sat face to face with Xie Qian. Although they were very close, she felt that Xie Qian was very far away from her.
Did she ask something that Xie Qian didn't want to say?
"If you're not comfortable talking about it, that's fine—"
"It's not inconvenient at all. Zhao Dong knows that my father and I have a bad relationship. He wants to start with me, so it's better to please my father directly. He will naturally change his attitude towards me."
If the victim is innocent, why should he be ashamed to mention it!
Wen Ying was stunned. "You and your father don't have a good relationship, but how did he know?"
"Of course I guessed it from my father's attitude. A few days ago, Zhao Dong went to Beijing to meet my father."
Once he figured it out, Xie Qian spoke quite frankly.
Many thoughts flashed through Wen Ying's mind. She and Wen Dongrong didn't have a very good relationship, but no matter in the previous life or this life, Wen Dongrong would not let outsiders discover this fact. In front of relatives and friends, Wen Dongrong was trying hard to be a good father.
How bad must the relationship between Xie Qian and his father be? Could Zhao Dong tell it just by meeting Xie Qian's father once?
Unless, Xie Qian's father doesn't hide this at all!
But why?
Xie Qian is so outstanding, good-looking, smart, and well-educated. He is the legendary "other people's child"!
If her identity were switched with Xie Qian's, her parents would probably be so proud of having such an outstanding son like Xie Qian that they would invite people to visit. If other parents had a son like Xie Qian, how could they bear to let outsiders embarrass Xie Qian?
Subconsciously, Wen Ying blamed Xie Qian's father for his bad relationship.
Xie Qian has a heavy filter in Wen Ying's heart. If Xie Qian has a bad relationship with someone, it is definitely not Xie Qian's fault——
"Your father is not satisfied with you in some way. Even though you are so outstanding, he is not satisfied. Shouldn't you go see an ophthalmologist?"
Wen Ying blurted out, but then felt that it was very rude to say so. Xie Qian was amused by her and wanted to laugh. Although he held back his laughter, the expression on his face was much more relaxed.
"It's no wonder you're not satisfied with me. Everyone has flaws. Just because you think I'm good doesn't mean others will think so. Besides, my dad has other children. With choices and comparisons, it's naturally easier for him to see my flaws."
It didn't seem as difficult as he had imagined to talk about it. On the contrary, it felt like a relief, like expelling all the mud. Without waiting for Wen Ying to ask further questions, Xie Qian added, "He has two other children, who are not born to the same mother as me. They are not legitimate children."
Wen Ying's face was full of exclamation marks.
Xie Qian actually revealed such a big piece of information!
Not only did Xie Qian's father have an extramarital affair, he also had two children with his mistress... This was the first time Wen Ying heard about this.
Although she paid attention to Xie Qian in her previous life, she had no way to find out about Xie Qian's privacy.
Like other fangirls, she only knew that Xie Qian came from a respectable family, but she had no idea about the specific situation of the Xie family.
Wen Ying lowered her head. Xie Qian's complicated family background must have had a certain impact on his life choices.
An ordinary person's extramarital affair will cause chaos in the family, and the father and son will become enemies. At worst, the worst that can happen is that the man will not get his property.
In a family like the Xie family, where Xie Qian's father had an illegitimate child, Wen Ying couldn't help but think of "rich families fighting over inheritance."
The two half-brothers of Xie Qian would certainly try every possible means to win favor in order to gain more property. It would be child's play for them to alienate the relationship between Xie Qian and his father. Wen Ying was afraid that the other party would resort to more sinister means.
In his previous life, was the desperate path that Xie Qian finally chose really just his personal choice? Was there no one else behind the scenes fanning the flames?
Wen Ying felt sorry for Xie Qian and cursed his father in her heart, but at the same time she was surprisingly calm: It seems that being friends with Xie Qian is not enough. She can influence Xie Qian not to go down the path of tragedy, but what if others insist on pushing Xie Qian to his death!
Do I have the power to fight against those people?
No!
She is too weak now. Not to mention protecting Xie Qian, she can't even protect herself.
Wen Ying was enveloped in a feeling of depression. The Ferris wheel landed and Wen Ying's feet stepped on the ground again. The solid touch gave her confidence.
Just because we can’t protect it now doesn’t mean we can’t protect it forever.
It’s still 15 years away from the time when the tragedy happened in the previous life!
