Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Sister-in-law, perhaps you might not know who I am, but I can tell you that I was an orphan before . Eight years ago, Brother Liangchuan adopted me, and I have treated this family as my own . You might not be able to understand what the meaning of a home is to me . But to me, this is my home and if there is someone who means to destroy this family of mine, I will not let them go, even if it means having to sacrifice myself!”
Song Yuanxi said these words with a trembling voice . Her gaze was firm and she looked as if she was a soldier heading for a battle .
Anyone would be able to tell that she was afraid . Evidently, she had plucked up a lot of courage to be able to say so many words .
Qiao Lian pressed her lips together while staring at her .
While Qiao Lian stared at Song Yuanxi, she could not help but lower her head and say timidly, “Sister-in-law, although my words may not sound appealing, I meant it from my heart . I truly hope that you were not the one who caused this . ”
Having said this, she ran away in a hurry .
Qiao Lian took a deep breath and after a while, she turned around . She was intending to head upstairs when she saw Xia Yehua standing at the corridor on the second floor, looking at her .
Qiao Lian was stunned . Xia Yehua took a deep breath and said, “Xiao Qiao, come here . ”
Qiao Lian tried her best to squeeze out a smile as she went up the stairs .
Xia Yehua held her hand and said, “Xiao Qiao, I believe you . ”
These words warmed up her heart .
Xia Yehua spoke again, “I’ve seen this child, Yuanxi, grow up . Please do not mind her for that . ”
Her heart had just been warmed up, yet this comment affected her .
It seemed as if there was a piece of cotton stuck in her chest, causing her to feel stuffy .
But, wasn’t it true that she did not have the right to blame Song Yuanxi?
Qiao Lian forced herself to squeeze out a smile . “Mom, rest assured, I will not blame her for it . ”
Xia Yehua nodded and then patted her shoulder .
The two of them stayed in her room for a little while .
Qiao Lian did not feel as relaxed as before, instead, she felt exhausted .
As she hadn’t slept well the night before, she unknowingly fell asleep while sitting on Xia Yehua’s sofa .
When Qiao Lian next woke up, she realized that Xia Yehua had already left the room .
She walked out of the room in a daze and saw Xia Yehua stepping out of Song Yuanxi’s room . Song Yuanxi was following her, her eyes were all red . Evidently, she must have been crying for a long while .
When Xia Yehua saw Qiao Lian, she immediately turned around and told Song Yuanxi, “Do apologize to your sister-in-law right now!”
Song Yuanxi walked out of her room with embarrassment and shyness, lowered her head and did not dare to look at Qiao Lian . “Sister-in-law, I am sorry . I should have not been suspicious of my own family members . ”
Qiao Lian looked at her and then at Xia Yehua .
The tinge of unhappiness that she had had just now immediately disappeared .
Actually, Xia Yehua was in a difficult spot, wasn’t she?
She was stuck between her own daughter-in-law and her adopted daughter, who she had already treated her as her own daughter .
This was probably the least she could have done .
Qiao Lian smiled and stretched out her hand to pat Song Yuanxi’s shoulders . “Everything’s fine now . ”
But… was everything indeed going to be fine?
Not matter what happened, it would be sufficient to maintain harmony on the surface .
As she was saying this, they heard the main door open . The three of them turned around and saw Shen Liangchuan walking in with big strides .
He changed his shoes and although he wasn’t close to them, he could detect that there was some strange atmosphere going on between them .
Hence, he frowned and enquired, “What’s wrong?”
As he said these words, Song Yuanxi immediately clenched her fists nervously .
