Chapter 743 Obfuscating Ambiguity

soon received a definitive answer. 。"Well, we've made it very clear. Just friends, just the children's parents." 。For Qin Jingwen, this was already enough. 。Whether or not Qiao Shunchen was sincere...Qi Liang began to recount the past

Our marriage was arranged by your grandfather and your great-grandfather. We were both forced into it. 。At the beginning of our marriage, we were like strangers, treating each other with polite distance. But after you all came along, our relationship became more relaxed. 。But that's not love, it's just the length of time spent together, and you guys are involved in each other's lives. At best, it's just familial affection. 。Remembering the past, remembering the deceased wife 。There was no regret or guilt on Qiao Liang's face. 。He felt no guilt over his deceased wife, and held no regrets toward her. 。Father's words made Qiao Yu understand that what he was waiting for wasn't his mother but the disappeared woman. 。"You have familial love for your mother, but your mother should have love for you. " 。Otherwise, she wouldn't have committed suicide by jumping off a building because of you. 。She couldn't accept your betrayal, accept... "It wasn't my fault, she chose to commit suicide and it has nothing to do with me" 。“

In his excitement, Qiao Liang interrupted Qiao Yu and said such a thing >>> 。"Dad, what do you mean by that" Joe was shocked and asked Joe Liang. 。She heard her father's words clearly. Everyone believed that her mother jumped to her death because she couldn't accept her father's infidelity. 。Back then, Dad didn't refute it, which was equivalent to acknowledging that his actions had something to do with Mom's death. 。Over twenty years have passed, why is Dad saying it has nothing to do with him again 。 Qiao Yu's shocked tone suddenly sobered Qiao Liang, how could he have let himself say it out loud 。"It's nothing, things have passed, it doesn't matter who was right or wrong." 。"Joe Yu, you only need to know that your father is not a despicable person, he is not someone who shies away from responsibility..." 。Joe didn't offer an explanation, instead vaguely sidestepping the issue. 。"Dad…" "Qiao Yu, your mother is gone. We need to respect her..." 。What happened between me and your mother is our business, let's just leave it be. 。" Qiao Liang didn't let Qiao Yu continue asking, and he regretted his momentary impulse. 。Okay, I won't tell Mom 。"That woman, aren't you always waiting for that woman"

Qiao Yu didn't press further, but she guessed there must be something between her mother and father that they didn't know. 。Dad is not a dirty person, he is more honest than anyone. 。Father is not a person who shirks responsibility. 。It's not his fault, he could have even helped to share the burden. 。So it all depends on the quality of the father, he believes in his father 。But that woman made Dad lonely for so many years, made Dad wait for so many years. This is a knot in her heart. 。"Sigh..." Qiao Liang first let out a sigh, then calmly opened his mouth. 。" Qiao Yu, you've grown up. You've experienced love and marriage. " 。Some things, some feelings you understand better than I do. 。"Even though I haven't had feelings for your mother after living with her for so many years, and I haven't thought about betraying her, I haven't had any feelings for any other women. 。But Qin Lan is different, to me she is true love. 。"I'm having a good time with Qin Lan, and I plan to divorce your mother and marry Aunt Qin." 。But I didn't handle this well, and your grandfather found out. 。What kind of person is your grandfather You know, he won't allow my marriage to have problems. If a marriage can't last, then it must be within the same social circles and mutually beneficial even at the time of getting married. 。As Qiao Liang spoke, he kept sighing and lamenting. 。When mentioning Qin Lan, her eyes were filled with too much guilt. 。His expression, attitude, and tone when talking about his wife were overly melancholy and wistful. 。 Qiao Yu listened quietly on the side. Although her attitude when mentioning her mother was completely different from when mentioning Qin Lan, which made Qiao Yu heartbroken, she still didn't interrupt her father's words. 。Just like father said, mother has passed away, and for over twenty years 。Regardless of who is right or wrong, it's ultimately irretrievable and irreparable. All they can do is face reality. 。And yet his father was still alive, living in pain, trapped in guilt and regret, and in lonely isolation until he reached middle age. 。This was the first time in over twenty years that he had taken the initiative to bring up the past. If her father was willing, she temporarily wanted to be a listener, wanting her father to pour out all the suppressed emotions in his heart. 。 Qiao Liang continued 。"Auntie Qin, you're just a simple doctor. My brother has a construction company." 。But this construction company simply couldn't win over your grandfather's heart. 。"Your grandfather has really stirred things up with his involvement." 。Qin Lan originally didn't know I had a family with two children. Your grandfather forcibly took her away, told my situation, and even threatened me with curses. 。"This really hit your Aunt Qin hard. She feels like she was deceived by me, and she even denied my feelings for her. " 。I deceived her, I owe her. 。For so many years I've been waiting, waiting for the chance to see her again and apologize, to say sorry to her. 。Joe Liang didn't hide his feelings for Qin Lan. He just spoke his true thoughts, so the child could gradually understand and accept them. 。and spread to Qiao Shunchen and Qin Jingwen. 。After waiting for over twenty years, it truly wasn't in vain. I finally waited for the person to return. 。But Qiao Liang never expected that they would be entangled together because of a relationship from the next generation. 。Back then, you were all young and blamed everything on Qin Lan. 。Your attacks combined with your grandfather's coercion, threats and emotional pressure, have caused her to lose her job and be forced to leave. 。"These are all my fault, it's because of my selfishness and my deliberate concealment that I hurt Qin Lan" 。Joe Liang was talking about past memories, some he could share, and some he couldn't. 。But saying some of my feelings out loud makes me feel a little lighter. 。 Joe Yu, who had been listening quietly all along, heard in her father's words only remorse and longing for Qin Lan, but not a word about the hurt he had inflicted on her mother. 。This was a bit much for Qiao Yu to handle. 。"Dad, the hurt that's been hidden isn't just Qin Lan's, it's also Mom's" 。 Qiao Yu pleaded her mother's case, trying to restore some sense of presence for her. 。"I didn't hide anything from your mother about me and Qin Lan. Your mother was the first to know." 。"Forget it, I won't talk about your mom" 。She said that she wouldn't be happy even if she were underground. 。“ And Qiao Liang infiltrated again, then sealed the topic. " 。 Qiao Yu once again respected her father, although she found some puzzling places, she did not ask. 。 Qiao Liang sighed again. 。"What Dad said, you might not believe it, but I assure you, with my heart clear, everything I've said is true. " 。Jiang Liang assured himself of everything he said, hoping Qiao Yu could understand him and start from Qin Lan's difficulties to let go and be tolerant. 。"Dad, I believe everything you said." 。"I want to ask you, if Qin Lan came back, would you still want to be with her" Qiao Yu unconditionally believed what her father said, but she blurted out such a question without warning. 。For her father's long wait, Qiao Yu expressed understanding. 。But from a mother's perspective, she still can't accept it for the time being. 。But when Dad mentioned Qin Lan, the loneliness and desolation in his eyes made Qiao Yu feel heartbroken. 。One person can be lonely for a day, or even a year, but what does it mean to be lonely for over twenty years 。At this moment, Qiao Yu felt that it was Qin Lan's presence that made all the difference. It was this unwavering waiting that allowed her father to persevere for so many years. 。“If she comes back, if she’s willing, and if you and Shunchen can mend your differences and agree to be together” 。I still hope to be with her. 。"After all, one's age is unpredictable and no one can say for sure how much time is left." 。I want to use the remaining time to make up for what I owe her, and also to feel happiness in the rest of my time. 。Joe Liang did not hide his true feelings, and there was nothing he could deliberately avoid about his love for Qin Lan. 。If he remains silent and retreats at this point, both Qiao Shunchen and Qin Jingwen's lives will be ruined. 。Qiao Yu looked at her father, listened to his heart, and suddenly felt that her father was the most pitiful person in the world. 。He said that he didn't know what love was when he was with his mother. Finally, he met love and understood it. His grandfather's one thought ruined his father's yearning for love. 。That's how it was, his whole life could be said to have brushed past love and never found it again. 。This is not only pitiful, but also pathetic. 。"Dad, after all these years, haven't you heard from her at all" Qiao Yu tentatively asked, not knowing if she would forgive Qin Lan, but she truly wanted her father to be happy and to see a genuine smile on his face. 。"Sigh... Qiao Yu, Dad wants to ask you something" 。"If Auntie Qin Lan found you and agreed to be with your dad" 喬梁 didn't answer, instead he asked a question. 。He didn't want to deceive the child, but he couldn't say that Qin Lan had already come back. 。Only one question can veil the problem of Qiao Yu. 。 She hesitated. She wanted to say something, but at this moment she didn't know what to say. 。"Can't accept it, can you Still hating me, are you Ah... actually, my father has been quite a failure all his life. Everyone hates me, only your mother understood me, but unfortunately she's gone..." 。Joe Liang knew this would be the situation, knowing that the child wouldn't forgive him so easily. 。If their mother hadn't chosen suicide back then, things might not be the way they are now. 。It won't be so bad that everyone is disheartened, nor will he become the object of everyone's hatred. 。She took her own life and threw all the blame on him, leaving him to shoulder all the consequences. 。He's a man, so how much he endures doesn't matter, but who can replace the harm and pain he brings to his child 。Sometimes, thinking about the transformation of two children after their mother's death, thinking about the feelings that they have suppressed for so many years, thinking about all the sunshine they have refused, Qiao Liang also hated his wife. 。However, hatred doesn't solve problems either. 。On her way home, Qiao Yu felt weighed down by the conversation she had with her father. 。< While feeling heartache for her father, she also felt sorry for her mother's plight. > 。The father said he didn't owe his mother anything, but who was going to pay for her death 。Qiao Yu recalled what her father had said, especially the way he hesitated when talking about her mother. 。He said his mother was the first to know about his infidelity, and looking back, there was evidence to support it. 。At that time, both she and Joe Shunchen lost control of their emotions when they found out about their father's infidelity, but their mother remained calm as if nothing had happened. 。Looking back, if I hadn't known beforehand, there's no way I could have been so calm. 。However, Mom was the first to know why Dad hadn't been exposed. Not exposing him meant being tolerant, but why did she choose suicide 。What are some things that parents don't know about each other 。make my stance clear, the key is what my stance even is, I haven't figured that out yet. 。My hand unconsciously rested on my still flat stomach, feeling the breath of the child. 。Is this the continuat...
