Chapter 190 Your choice was right.
Wu Jie, standing next to the old lady, raised an eyebrow and subconsciously looked at the old lady.
"Grandma, shall I go take a look?"
Qiu Huilan's face, which had been full of affection for Jiang Qin just moments before, suddenly turned from sunny to cloudy, or even overcast.
When he spoke again, his tone was completely different, suddenly becoming sarcastic and unpleasant.
"Is that brat? Oh, last night I asked his assistant, Xiao He, what did Xiao He tell me? Didn't he say he was only coming over tonight? Seriously, a twenty-eight-year-old with the memory of an eighty-two-year-old!"
"His memory is even worse than mine; he can't even tell whether it's day or night!"
"Oh, no, he also has an eye problem. We need to have Xiao He take him to see his brother from the Lu family so he can get his eyes checked."
Hearing this series of words, Jiang Qin, who had been feeling a bit annoyed because she realized that Huo Sili might go to this floor, was suddenly amused.
She genuinely had no idea that the old lady could be so sarcastic and humorous.
The next second, Qiu Huilan's gaze shifted over, and Jiang Qin quickly adjusted her facial expression.
But then Qiu Huilan suddenly changed her demeanor and spoke to her with affection.
"If you ask me, Qinqin, if your grandpa had been that brat back then, let me tell you, if he had—"
"Today, the Huo family ceases to exist! And the Huo clan ceases to exist!"
"So, Qinqin, you made the right choice. It's good that you got divorced. Grandma supports you. Don't feel guilty about this. A man who makes his wife suffer is someone you absolutely cannot have."
These words suddenly appeared in Jiang Qin's ears, causing her to be momentarily dazed.
There was a time when Grandma Xiao Yuxiu said something similar, so when her abusive father was hit by a car and killed, Grandma Xiao Yuxiu wasn't sad at all, and even the police handled the body.
I heard that no one would collect the ashes, so I just dumped them in the trash and disposed of them.
At that time, as a young girl, she couldn't understand why her mother wouldn't be sad when her son died.
Because I was young at the time, I couldn't understand many human emotions.
So for a long time, she felt caught in the middle and in a difficult position.
Especially during her adolescence, she was a bit rebellious. Because of the childhood trauma she experienced, she had a severe aversion to her father. Back then, whenever she heard something like "fatherly love is as solid as a mountain," she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Even if they sometimes hold it in on their face, they're definitely rolling their eyes in their hearts, and might even silently curse and add "What a jerk!"
She remembered it was a late night, a Friday night.
She was doing her Chinese homework at home; the teacher had assigned several reading comprehension exercises.
She was so tired, but she wanted to finish quickly because she had promised a local shop owner that she would work there over the weekend to earn some money and ease her grandmother's burden.
As luck would have it, she came across a classic line praising the greatness of a father's love, and coincidentally, to perk herself up, she read the passage aloud while doing her homework.
As a result, she was too sleepy that day, and when she recited the classic line "fatherly love is like blah blah blah," she habitually added "a damn thing."
Unexpectedly, on that day, my grandmother, who should have been busy at work, came home early because of a power outage in the neighborhood.
Then, an extremely awkward situation occurred for her at that time.
Then, Grandma Xiao Yuxiu said something similar to the old lady at that moment.
She was right to scold the abusive man; she did nothing wrong, the other party was at fault.
Coming to her senses, Jiang Qin didn't know what to say for a moment.
Because when she went upstairs, she kept thinking about how to tell the old lady about faking her death.
But to her surprise, as soon as the elevator doors opened, she was greeted by that scene: Huo Sili was coming over again…
The matter of faking death cannot be done now.
Before she could finish her thought, the old lady blurted out her words, which were directed at Sister Wu.
"Xiao Wu, don't let the second young master in. Tell him to stay downstairs."
Jiang Qin was taken aback, and the slight annoyance in her heart instantly dissipated.
Just then, Sister Wu received the order and hurried over, arriving just as the elevator doors opened, but Huo Sili was still inside and hadn't come out.
The man tried to move forward, but Sister Wu blocked him with her outstretched arms.
"Young Master, the old lady said you can't come in. Please go downstairs."
As Huo Sili continued walking, Sister Wu stood there like a statue, unmoving.
The atmosphere remained tense for a few seconds before his gaze passed over the woman in front of him and landed on the table in front of him.
Several meters away, Horst's gaze traced the face of the old lady, who was turned to the side and smiling at him, her thin lips pressed tightly together.
Sister Wu's arm was getting a little sore from holding it up.
Fortunately, after a moment, the person inside seemed to resign themselves to their fate, and the elevator doors closed and began to descend.
Just as she breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the old lady's side, she suddenly heard the second young mistress say to the old lady, "Grandma, I want to tell you something."
That tone... Sister Wu's heart jumped again.
"What's wrong? Qinqin, just tell me."
……
"Great, great, now it's just a matter of time before you achieve your goal, my darling."
The next morning, back in Yueming Bay, I video-chatted with Su Lejia, and she sounded genuinely happy for me.
Thinking of the old lady from yesterday noon, Jiang Qin couldn't help but feel a little complicated and reluctant to part with her, but she quickly raised her lips slightly and hummed in agreement.
"Yes, it's just a matter of time."
Soon, she will be able to fake her death and leave the country with her baby.
