Chapter 66: Song Qiao feels guilty towards Xie Yanli after knowing the truth from many years ago!
Song Zhiming nodded with a sullen look on his face: "That's right, Xie Changfeng only has Yanli as his child in public, but he actually has another illegitimate child behind his back."
She clearly remembered that the gossip magazines said that Xie Changfeng had only one son, Xie Yanli, and that when Xie Changfeng and Lin Xue got married, they promised Xie Changhe that they would not have children.
Song Qiaotou was stunned for a moment. She asked in a daze, "Then...Aunt Li? And Xie Yanli? They all knew about it? How did they handle it?"
Song Zhiming pursed his brows, his tone full of regret: "Of course Li Lan couldn't accept it after she found out. She fainted on the spot after she found out. The most annoying thing is that Lin Xue went to the Xie family every few days to make trouble. She would kneel down and kowtow to Li Lan and ask her to help them. Of course Li Lan didn't agree. Later, Lin Xue would send her intimate photos of the three of them together from time to time to stimulate her."
Song Zhiming's blood boiled as he spoke. He sighed heavily and said, "Li Lan is just too kind-hearted. She could have used the power of the Li family to check and balance Xie Changfeng and make him pay a heavy price. But she thought of Xie Yanli and her years of friendship with Xie Changfeng, so she swallowed her anger and suppressed the matter. But her health has been bad since then. She suffered from insomnia all night and kept the medicine bottle in her hand. Within two years, she was diagnosed with severe depression."
"In order to hide this matter, Xie Changfeng did not allow Li Lan to go to the hospital and only let the family doctor treat her. For this reason, your mother and I went to find Xie Changfeng, but he said that Li Lan agreed to this matter. Later, Li Lan told us that she voluntarily did not go in order not to affect Xie's and Yanli."
A few years passed like this, and Li Lan's condition not only did not improve at all, but became more and more serious. The Li family decided to send Li Lan to the UK for treatment. Yan Li insisted on going with him. Because Li Lan's illness required someone to take care of him day and night, they agreed. ”
When Song Qiao heard this, she suddenly realized why Xie Yanli suddenly went to England. It turned out that he was going to accompany Li Lan for treatment.
Those separations that had no time to explain and those days and nights without contact, it turned out that he was accompanying his seriously ill mother.
A bitter taste suddenly rose in her throat. She had misunderstood him. She suppressed her surging emotions and asked anxiously, "What happened later? Aunt Li..."
"Li Lan contacted us a lot in the beginning of her stay in the UK, and we could tell that she had recovered a lot. She even agreed with us that she would come back for the Chinese New Year so that we could get together. But not long after, she contacted us less and less. During the few times we chatted, we could tell that she was putting on a forced smile. A few months later, the next time we heard from her, it was that she had committed suicide by jumping off a building."
At this point, Bai Shuyu interrupted angrily, "In fact, I have always had doubts about what happened back then. Li Lan's health had obviously improved, but why did it suddenly become worse? It was even so serious that she jumped off the building. I always felt that this matter was related to Lin Xue. I even called Yan Li and reminded him about this."
Song Qiao's heart was in a knot. She frowned and asked anxiously, "What did Xie Yanli say?"
Bai Shuyu shook his head heavily. "He said he had checked everything but couldn't find any evidence. Li Lan specifically told him before she died that this matter had nothing to do with others and that she was too tired to continue. She also told Yanli to come back after finishing college in the UK. I could tell Yanli was devastated at the time, but this child kept comforting me even when he was so happy."
Bai Shuyu sniffed after she finished speaking. She held her nose again and again, but the tears from the corners of her eyes still flowed uncontrollably.
"I just think Yanli is too sensible. He is about the same age as you. He was only 16 or 17 years old back then. He saw his own mother jump off the building but couldn't save her. If it were anyone else, they would have collapsed long ago, but he kept holding on. When we hung up the phone, I remember he told me that he would live well for his mother, protect everything in the Xie family for her, and would never let that woman succeed."
Bai Shuyu burst into tears when she said this, she was so sad that she couldn't continue.
After hearing this, Song Qiao felt very upset. She couldn't help but think of the time when Xie Yanli called her. He spoke in a low voice and said that he had something to talk to her about. It turned out that he didn't want to break up, but wanted to tell her about his mother.
She now completely believed what Xie Yanli said. He was so filial and he must have felt so bad at that time. How could he have dated Jiang Xinhui behind her back under that situation?
Jiang Xinhui had been lying all along and she had misunderstood him.
She thought again of Xie Yanli's suppressed sigh during the late-night phone call, and she realized how sad he must have been. But not only did she misunderstand him, she also ridiculed him and said that she had someone else in her heart.
Her heart was instantly filled with burning regret, and she wished she could tear her past self to pieces. She was so stupid and deserved to die.
She stood up suddenly from her chair. She wanted to find Xie Yanli and apologize to him solemnly. Not only that, she also wanted to comfort him and give him a belated hug.
Song Zhiming and Bai Shuyu, who were immersed in painful memories, were pulled out of their memories when they heard the noise. They saw Song Qiao with tears on her face and thought she was standing up for Li Lan.
Bai Shuyu then pulled Song Qiao to her side and choked up, "Qiao Qiao, Yan Li's child may look prosperous on the surface, but he is actually very pitiful and has a hard time. When you two get married in the future, I hope you can treat him well and not be so willful and throw tantrums all the time."
Tears flowed down Song Qiao's face, and then he nodded heavily.
Song Zhiming's eyes were heavy, and he said in a resounding voice: "Qiao Qiao, I tell you this because I want to make it clear to you that the Xie family is very complicated. Xie Changfeng and that Lin Xue are both shrewd and good at acting. You must be more careful when you get along with them in the future. Another thing is that if you get angry, remember to tell us, don't bear it, I will go and settle the score with them for you."
"That's right, Qiao Qiao, mom and dad will always be your confidence and support."
When Song Qiao heard this, she was moved and sad. She had parents who loved her so much, but Xie Yanli did not. He only had a family full of calculations.
She glanced out the window. It was late at night and the dew was heavy. It was too late now. She decided to wait until tomorrow to look for Xie Yanli.
Not long after, she received a call from Chen Yao, who told her about the gossip of the night. After Song Qiao looked at the photos sent by Chen Yao, she was surprised and asked Chen Yao again: "Yaoyao, are you saying that someone said something bad about me and Xie Yanli heard it, so he punished me by making me roll down from the third floor?"
