Chapter 38 Has my sister's injury healed?
They had gone through a lot of hardship to find their daughter, and Ye Qingning's parents had always doted on her.
However, since she wasn't raised by her parents' side from a young age, and given her vulgarity and ignorance emanating from her, compared to the well-educated and reasonable Ye Qingxue, Ye Qingning squandered all of her parents' goodwill and guilt towards her in just one year.
After that dramatic jump on her wedding day, Ye Qingning was seen as a plague god by her parents.
So when she entered, both of them looked displeased and disgusted.
Ye's mother, Zhou Yuan, stood up: "Why is Qingning back? Is Young Master Lin here too?"
"No." Ye Qingning smiled. "I came back to get some of my old things."
Although she was well aware of her parents' current attitude towards her, the affection she had never experienced before still warmed Ye Qingning's heart.
Zhou Yuan nodded: "That's fine. Your luggage is all in the room; we haven't touched it."
Ye Qingning nodded and greeted her father, Ye Huaiyuan, "Dad."
Ye Huaiyuan was drinking tea, his expression extremely indifferent: "Yes, go ahead."
Just as Ye Qingning was about to turn around and go upstairs, she saw Ye Qingxue coming downstairs wearing an exceptionally beautiful pink dress.
"Sister, you're here." Ye Qingxue walked over and took her arm. "Why haven't you come back to see us for so long? Mom and Dad and I have missed you."
Ye Qingning casually pulled her arm away: "Busy."
Ye Qingxue's eyes showed concern again: "Has the cut on your wrist healed, sister?"
"Hmm." Ye Qingning didn't want to argue with her, but Ye Qingxue's words caused Zhou Yuan and Ye Huaiyuan's expressions to change drastically.
"Qingning... what happened to your wrist injury?" Zhou Yuan asked anxiously.
"It's nothing, just a minor cut," Ye Qingning said, shaking her arm. "It's healed now."
Zhou Yuan and Ye Huaiyuan exchanged a glance, and Ye Huaiyuan's brow furrowed in displeasure: "You can't just accidentally cut your wrist? I bet you did it on purpose, didn't you? You just can't stand to see the Ye family doing well?"
Ye Huaiyuan slammed his teacup on the table: "You're already married to Young Master Lin, so please behave yourself for the sake of still bearing the surname Ye!"
Ye Huaiyuan's words were filled with intense anger, each one piercing to the heart.
Ye Qingning frowned slightly; as expected, she had little say in this family.
They believed anything Ye Qingxue said.
Well, anyway, she's never experienced any so-called family affection, so she doesn't feel sad right now, just a little disappointed.
"I accidentally cut my wrist. I've already explained that. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."
Ye Qingning paused for a moment: "Lin Feiyan and I are doing fine, you don't need to worry. But my sister and Lin Younan have been dating for so long and the Lin family hasn't come to propose marriage yet..."
Ye Qingxue's expression changed: "I don't need to trouble myself with my affairs, sister."
Ye Qingning smiled and said, "Why are you in such a hurry, little sister? I was just mentioning it casually... If there's nothing else, I'll go upstairs and pack my things."
This time, Ye Qingxue didn't stop her, and Ye Qingning was able to escape smoothly.
After her figure disappeared down the stairs, a look of grievance appeared on Ye Qingxue's face: "Mom and Dad, is my sister still angry with me? It's my fault, I shouldn't have brought up her sad story..."
"Xue'er, it's not your fault." Zhou Yuan tidied her bangs, her face full of relief. "Mom knows you were doing it for her own good."
Ye Qingxue pursed her lips: "Mom and Dad, please don't be angry with my sister anymore. She probably hasn't thought things through yet. I just saw her talking to You Nan at the door... Please give her some more time."
Upon hearing this, Ye Huaiyuan's brows furrowed deeply, and he coldly rebuked, "Disgraceful!"
Zhou Yuan pondered for a moment and then asked, "But what your sister said is true. Didn't you ask You Nan what he meant? When are you getting engaged?"
"Mom," Ye Qingxue took Zhou Yuan's arm, "I want to spend a few more years with you two, there's no rush to get married..."
"Silly child," Zhou Yuan laughed, "There are plenty of people who want to get close to the Lin family right now. You two should at least get engaged first, so your parents can rest assured."
Ye Qingxue just smiled, though she was naturally anxious inside.
She also wanted to get engaged, but every time she brought it up, Lin Younan would change the subject.
That's why she recently decided to give him the cold shoulder so he'd have a better understanding of the situation.
"By the way, Mom and Dad," Ye Qingxue quickly changed the subject, "I'd like to invite my sister and brother-in-law to my birthday party."
