Chapter 210 Abandoning Husband and Daughter
"Grandma, if you really don't want to tell me the truth, I'll ask Dad after he gets home from get off work." Qiao Jingyu said firmly.
Hearing this, Han Shuqin suddenly looked flustered and anxious, and quickly waved her hand to stop him, saying, "Don't...don't ask your dad! If he knew that you knew about this, he would be upset again."
Seeing her grandmother like this, Qiao Jingyu's eyes instantly turned red, tears welled up in them, and she pleaded with a slightly choked voice: "Grandma, please, tell me the truth!"
Han Shuqin sighed helplessly and said slowly: "Jingyu, the reason why we have been hiding this from you is actually because we care about you. Even if we don't know these things, look, you are already 20 years old now. You have lived well without your mother for so many years, right?"
However, Qiao Jingyu did not agree with her grandmother's statement. She retorted excitedly: "Grandma, this is not the case at all! After all, she is my biological mother. No matter what, I have the right to know whether she is alive or has passed away." As she spoke, Qiao Jingyu held Han Shuqin's wrinkled hands tightly and continued to beg, "Grandma, please, just tell me!"
Seeing this, Han Shuqin was silent for a moment, and finally said, "Okay, since you are so persistent, then grandma will tell you everything. But before that, you must first agree to one condition from grandma - from now on, no matter what happens, you must never go looking for her. Can you do it?"
Qiao Jingyu hesitated for a moment, but only for two or three seconds. Finally, she gritted her teeth and nodded to show her agreement.
"Swear!" Han Shuqin stared at Qiao Jingyu closely, her face extremely serious, as if she was about to explode at the next moment. The scene twenty years ago is still vivid in her mind. That cruel woman ruthlessly abandoned her husband and her one-month-old daughter, and took away her son's heart. Now, after a long period of healing, her son has finally come out of that painful memory and poured all his love into Qiao Jingyu. If Qiao Jingyu leaves again in the future, how will her son bear this blow?
Qiao Jingyu was startled by Han Shuqin's sudden request. She was slightly stunned, with a hint of surprise and confusion in her eyes. After a while, she came back to her senses and whispered, "...Grandma..." However, before she could finish, Han Shuqin shouted again, "Swear!"
Faced with Han Shuqin's tough attitude, Qiao Jingyu couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, but when she saw Han Shuqin's determined and worried eyes, she finally nodded gently and said slowly: "...Okay! I swear, I will never go find her!" Hearing Qiao Jingyu's oath, Han Shuqin's tense face finally relaxed a little. She slowly turned around and walked to the window with slightly heavy steps.
Standing in front of the window, Han Shuqin stared at the scenery outside the window quietly, without saying a word. Time passed by minute by minute, and the whole room was filled with a depressing atmosphere. After a long time, Han Shuqin sighed deeply and slowly said: "My child, in fact, your mother is not dead. When you were just one month old, she eloped with another man and disappeared since then. There has been no news of her since then. Over the years, your father has been looking for her whereabouts everywhere, but he has never found her."
Qiao Jingyu's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief. She could never have imagined that everything Qiao Jingshan had said before was actually true. It turned out that her mother had actually abandoned this family, abandoned her and her father for another man. Thinking of this, Qiao Jingyu felt a sharp pain in her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes.
All of a sudden, all kinds of complicated emotions surged into Qiao Jingyu's heart, making it hard for her to describe what she felt. There was a hint of sadness, as if she was being gently pulled by an invisible thread; there was also a little anger, like a burning flame jumping in her heart, but more of it was a deep heartache for her father. When she thought of her father being abandoned so ruthlessly, her heart felt like it was hit hard by a heavy hammer and the pain was unbearable.
Thinking back to the last life, I would resolutely sever the father-daughter relationship with my father for that scumbag Song Chengze. How sad my father must have been at that time! Being cruelly abandoned by his wife when he was young and being abandoned by his own daughter when he was old, the double blow of life undoubtedly brought endless pain to his father. At this moment, Qiao Jingyu regretted it so much that she wanted to slap herself hard immediately to punish her extremely stupid behavior.
At this time, Han Shuqin continued, "Your father has a very deep affection for your mother. Back then, he married Liu Fengping out of consideration for you. You were so young at that time, how could a grown man know how to take good care of you? So, your father made that decision. Moreover, the reason why he never told you these things was because he loved you too much and was afraid that you would be sad after knowing the truth. Jingyu, you should just pretend that this matter never happened! Otherwise, your father will worry about you again."
After hearing this, Qiao Jingyu was silent for a moment, then nodded firmly and said, "Okay!" She secretly swore in her heart that she would treat her father well no matter what in this life, do her best to make up for the mistakes she had made, and give her father full love and warmth. Because only in this way can she comfort her heart that has been through so much.
The court announced the verdict the next day. Liu Fengping was sentenced to five years in prison for cutting corners, causing casualties, and embezzling company funds. He was also ordered to bear all economic losses caused by his cutting corners.
After hearing the verdict, Qiao Jingshan burst into tears on the spot. Liu Fengping had always been her strongest supporter, and it was Liu Fengping who arranged and planned everything for her.
Now Liu Fengping is in jail, and she has been kicked out of the house by Qiao Fukang. Song Chengze now feels that she is of no use to him and is even more lukewarm towards her. Qiao Jingshan's world collapsed at this moment.
Qiao Jingshan cried for a long time until she was exhausted. Then she suddenly thought of what Liu Fengping said to her, "Jingshan, mom can't accompany you anymore. You must be strong and independent. You must make yourself strong at all costs. Only the strong will not be bullied. Don't be like me. I dedicated most of my life to the Qiao family, but ended up with such a miserable end."
All this was caused by Qiao Jingyu. It was Qiao Jingyu who was causing all the trouble. She wanted to kill Qiao Jingyu.
With hatred surging in her eyes, Qiao Jingshan hailed a taxi and went to Qiao Jingyu's company.
Zhao Xinxin was doing daily reports at the front desk when she suddenly heard someone shouting, "Qiao Jingyu, you bitch, come out here, I'm going to kill you."
Zhao Xinxin looked up and saw that it was Qiao Jingshan. Her eyes were red and she rushed in with a fierce look on her face. She hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, "Qiao Jingshan, what are you doing?"
"Get out of here." Qiao Jingshan pushed Zhao Xinxin away forcefully.
