Chapter 228 He doesn't seem to be needed that much [32]
Lin Fengyue wanted to have a proper talk with Jiang Qi; it seemed like they had never even had a serious conversation before.
But Jiang Qi didn't really want to talk to her.
He felt that if Lin Fengyue hadn't gone to say those things to A Chu, A Chu wouldn't have driven him away.
Jiang Qi is somewhat eccentric towards Lin Fengyue.
At the doorway, Jiang Qi stood inside, while Lin Fengyue stood outside.
Lin Fengyue: "Jiang Qi, are you blaming me and your father?"
“You should blame us. If it weren’t for our negligence, Wang Peiyu wouldn’t have succeeded, and you would have suffered so much and been wronged for so many years.”
Wang Peiyu was arrested and confessed to everything.
For example, her past mistreatment of Jiang Qi.
Hearing those details made Lin Fengyue hate Wang Peiyu so much that she wanted her dead!
In the eight years since returning to the Jiang family, Jiang Qi has been looked down upon and bullied as an illegitimate child.
Lin Fengyue also learned that Jiang Chaochao not only bullied Jiang Qi at home, but also instigated others to bully Jiang Qi at school.
They even paid thugs to beat up Jiang Qi!
Lin Fengyue could hardly believe that her daughter, whom she thought was very sensible and well-behaved, would do such a thing.
When she first found out, she really wanted to go find Jiang Chaochao, yell at her, or even slap her.
But after calming down, Lin Fengyue felt that it was mostly her fault.
It's because she didn't raise her daughter well.
After learning that Jiang Mingxuan had betrayed their marriage, Lin Fengyue used traveling the world to numb herself.
Although she would make video calls to check on her daughter, it was never enough.
Perhaps in Jiang Chaochao's heart, Jiang Qi was the culprit who destroyed her family's warmth and happiness, and the real culprit who made her mother unwilling to go home.
Therefore, Jiang Chaochao bullied Jiang Qi.
Lin Fengyue felt that she should apologize to Jiang Qi.
And that's exactly what she did.
Jiang Qi felt no emotional turmoil.
He thought that if he were still alive, he would still be feeling emotional.
At least he wouldn't be looking at Lin Fengyue so coldly like he is now.
Jiang Qi: "It's all in the past now, I don't blame anyone."
...Yeah, right.
Jiang Qi hates most people in this world.
The only person she felt affection for was Achu.
Lin Fengyue could naturally see Jiang Qi's cold attitude towards her.
She was at a loss for what to do.
I don't know how to ease the tension between the two of them.
Jiang Qi said, "If there's nothing else, I'll do my homework first."
Lin Fengyue nodded helplessly: "Alright, you do your homework first."
Jiang Qi closed the door.
Lin Fengyue stood there for a while before leaving.
Jiang Qi sat on the bed. His room was dark, with blackout curtains drawn, and only the light from his phone screen shone on his face.
That face, already pale enough, looked eerie and frightening under the light of the phone.
Xinghe Mansion is the name of the residential complex where Achu lives.
After seeing Jiang Qi off, A Chu curled up on the sofa, watching the melodramatic idol drama on TV with nothing to do.
My phone vibrated.
He picked it up and saw it was a message from Jiang Qi.
Jiang Qi: [Sister, what are you doing?]
Achu typed a reply: 【Watching TV.】
She took a picture of the TV and sent it to them.
Then he asked, "What are you doing, Aqi?"
Jiang Qi stood up, turned on the room light, and took out his homework, placing it on the desk.
Then I took a picture and sent it to Achu: "I'm getting ready to help my sister with her homework."
Jiang Qi is now helping A Chu with her homework, and he even imitates her handwriting.
It's not that Achu doesn't know how to do those assignments, it's that she's too lazy to do them.
The original owner's grades weren't particularly good, and A Chu even had to hide his shortcomings to avoid making his grades seem like they were improving by leaps and bounds.
However, I still need to gradually 'improve', after all, I still need to get into a good university.
Achu: [Huh? Why did you take my homework with you? I'm going to do my homework by myself from now on!]
Jiang Qi immediately panicked and made a video call.
Ah Chu accepted.
On the phone screen appeared Jiang Qi's pale, beautiful face.
He frowned, asking anxiously yet cautiously, "Sister, did I do something wrong to make you angry?"
He had obediently gone back to the Jiang family.
Ah Chu blinked her eyes: "No, I'm not angry with you!"
Jiang Qi: "Then why won't you let me do your homework for you anymore?"
Achu almost couldn't help but laugh.
He got so worked up just because he wouldn't let Jiang Qi help him with his homework.
Anyone who didn't know better would think she had done something drastic.
Achu explained, "Because I want to do my own homework from now on! I want to study hard and try to get into the same university as you."
Jiang Qi's furrowed brows immediately relaxed.
A light appeared in his dark eyes.
He smiled and said, "Really? My sister is going to university with me?"
Achu nodded: "Yes, although the chances are slim, let's give it a try. What if I pass the exam?"
Jiang Qi: "Sister, you can definitely pass the exam! I'll tutor you!"
Achu smiled and replied, "Okay."
Jiang Qi: "Then..."
What he meant was that he would still go to Xinghe Mansion every day from now on.
However, before Jiang Qi could even speak, A Chu said, "Then we'll video chat every day from now on, and you can tutor me!"
Video...
Jiang Qi's eyelashes drooped, and he replied, "Okay."
If he could, he would prefer to be with Achu in real life.
But since Achu has already mentioned video, then video is the only option.
Achu chatted with Jiang Qi for a few more minutes, then said she was going to watch TV and hung up the video call.
For dinner, A-Chu ordered takeout and ate it while watching TV.
Jiang Qi, on the other hand, had dinner with Jiang Mingxuan and Lin Fengyue.
He had intended to make an excuse not to eat, but he went down anyway.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward between the family of three who weren't very familiar with each other.
Jiang Mingxuan and Lin Fengyue tried to start conversations with Jiang Qi, but he always ended them with a one- or two-word response.
Then came silence.
Jiang Qi went back to his room after finishing dinner.
He went to the toilet to vomit first; he was already very familiar with the process.
After vomiting, Jiang Qi sent another message to A Chu.
Achu was watching TV, and her phone was on the sofa; she didn't hear it vibrate.
Jiang Qi waited for half an hour but did not receive a reply from A Chu.
It was already dark outside.
Jiang Qi, in ghost form, floated directly to A Chu's house.
Then I saw her sitting cross-legged on the living room carpet, watching TV and eating kebabs with great relish.
Jiang Qi suddenly felt very down, as if A Chu could live without him.
He doesn't seem to be needed.
Jiang Qi was surrounded by a low-pressure atmosphere, and a dark aura enveloped him tightly.
Achu suddenly felt very cold and shivered.
Ah Chu seemed puzzled and muttered, "Why did it suddenly get cold? I didn't turn on the air conditioner."
Of course she knew it was Jiang Qilai; the system told her immediately.
Upon hearing A Chu's 'talking to herself,' Jiang Qi quickly composed himself to avoid disturbing her.
And so, while Achu watched TV and ate, Jiang Qi stood in the corner staring at her.
It wasn't until Ah Chu finished watching and eating that she finally finished.
She got up from the carpet, glanced at her phone, and saw the message Jiang Qi had sent two hours earlier.
Achu typed a reply: 【I was watching TV just now and didn't check my phone.】
Jiang Qi doesn't carry a phone when he's in his ghost form, but he moved closer to A Chu and saw her reply.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Qi floated back to the Jiang family home and replied to A Chu: 【Oh, I see.】
Jiang Qi: [What TV series are you watching, sister? Is it good?]
Achu: [It's the one I watched this morning. Let me tell you, the male lead is so stupid...]
