Chapter 324
Old Madame Jing is considering Gu Qiao’s words, her face turns sour.
No matter it is intentional or not, but it doesn’t make her happy.
Old Madame Sheng and Old Madame Yan don’t notice it. They don’t think there’s inappropriateness in Gu Qiao’s words. For them, Gu Qiao just praises Ye Qing Xin to be good at educating kids. Old Madame Sheng likes Xiao Guo.
“Xiao Guo indeed is taught well by Xin Xin. He is obedient and polite.” Old Madame Sheng smiles.
Old Madame Jing turns her head to look at her grandsons.
Ye Qing Xin finishes her bowl of porridge. She puts down her empty bowl and spoon on the bedside cabinet.
A maid takes it directly and washes it.
“But two days ago, I heard a not-so-good rumor. I heard that Xiao Guo was missing, he was missing for a day and just be found. Is it true? Is he hurt?” Gu Qiao asks Ye Qing Xin.
Ye Qing Xin closes her eyes and says calmly. “He is well. Thank you Qiao Qiao Jie for your care.”
“It’s good that nothing is happened.” Gu Qiao releases her heavy breath. She says. “Now there’re a lot of bad guys. Xiao Guo is famous. Xin Xin, you guys should take a good care of her. Maybe someone has bad intention to him.”
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t say anything.
Gu Qiao says again. “Xin Xin, I heard the one that kidnapped Xiao Guo is someone influential in banking business. He also has a bit of power, what are your plans to defeat him?”
Ye Qing Xin just looks at Gu Qiao and says nothing.
Today Gu Qiao is so talkative.
In the past, Gu Qiao knows that Ye Qing Xin has grievance toward her. Though she is acting in front of everyone but today she seems want to have an answer from Ye Qing Xin.
“You guys will not let him go right? What if he kidnaps Ye Qing Guo again?” Gu Qiao tries to maintain her smile.
“Now he is in police station. For what should be his punishment, let the law decides it.”
Gu Qiao knows that Ye Qing Xin doesn’t want to explain much toward her. It’s just she wants to know whether someone has found out that it’s related to her.
In the morning on the 1st, after she got the call from Zhao You Jia, she was so worried.
She hesitated and was afraid of Jing Bo Yuan’s revenge. She wanted to leak the information to the police. But she thought that she had done it. No matter how she will not be saved.
So she wanted Ye Qing Guo to be dead. That way Ye Qing Xin will be so sad. As long as Ye qing Xin feels sad, she will be happy.
Gu Qiao was so ruthless. But turns out nothing happens. Ye Qing Xin is well and she can deliver her three babies safely and soundly.
Gu Qiao closes her eyes to cover her emotion.
How can in this world there is someone that has a good luck. Why she is favored by nature?
Gu Qiao smiles.
“Then those who cooperated with Jiu Shen Jie? Are they caught? Xin Xin, you guys cannot let go anyone of them.” Gu Qiao says with anger.
“Of course we will not. Qiao Qiao Jie, don’t worry.” Ye Qing Xin smiles. “Thank you Qiao Qiao Jie to be so caring toward Xiao Guo.”
“I should be. I feel that we have a good relationship with each other. I always feel so regret to not having met you earlier. Even though we have misunderstandings about those things in the past… but it’s in the past. I hope that in the future we can be in good relationship.”
Gu Qiao holds Ye Qing Xin’s hand and acts sincere.
Ye Qing Xin smiles and says nothing. She just takes away her hand from Gu Qiao’s hold.
Gu Qiao smiles and stands up. She walks toward the babies’ bed. She says softly: “I’ve stayed here for a long time but I haven’t carried up my Gan Wai Sheng. Nai Nai, let me carry him.”
She is really relieved and happy. From what Ye Qing Xin said, Gu Qiao knows that Ye Qing Xin really doesn’t know that Ye Qing Guo’s missing is related to her.
So Jing Bo Yuan just suspected her and gave a call to Zhao You Jia. If Jing Bo Yuan gets evidence, he will definitely not let her go.
She even wouldn’t have chance to come over to the hospital.
Moreover this morning, she contacted her assistant’s boyfriend. There’s nothing strange. Gu Qiao is sure that Jing Bo Yuan hasn’t investigated her.
Gu Qiao is so happy.
This time she isn’t successful in playing Ye Qing Xin, she has next time. One day, she will trample on her and watch how she begs to her.
Old Madame Yan doesn’t think to much, she just passes Zhao Zhao to Gu Qiao.
Gu Qiao extends her hand to take Zhao Zhao.
But the time her hands touch the soft onesie.
“Wa—-” Zhao Zhao cries loudly. It surprises Gu Qiao. She takes her hand back.
“What is it good boy…..” Old Madame Yan hugs Zhao Zhao and says softly: “Why are you crying little baby? Xiao Zhao Zhao….”
“Is he hungry? It’s been a while since they drank milk.” Zhao Zhao’s nanny says.
“I don’t think so. It’s not too long. Three of them drank at the same time. Ge Ge and Di Di don’t cry.” Old Madame Yan says.
Zhao Zhao stops crying and opens his big eyes. His mouth is open a bit.
“Good boy, don’t cry. Are you hungry? Or peeing?” Old Madame Yan checks Zhao Zhao’s diaper. It’s dry.
“Nothing. So why are you crying? Em?” Old Madame Yan jokes with Zhao Zhao and says with Gu Qiao. She says to Zhao Zhao. “Your Gan Biao Yi (Auntie) want to hug you a while? Gan Biao Yi likes Zhao Zhao so much.”
Old Madame Yan once again passes Zhao Zhao to Gu Qiao.
Gu Qiao just extends her hands……
“Wa—-” Zhao Zhao cries loudly again.
Everyone watch it. Indeed he doesn’t want to let Gu Qiao to hug him.
“You kid, how can you not let Gan Biao Yi hug you?” Old Madame Yan laughs. “Gan Biao Yi likes Zhao Zhao so much, Zhao Zhao let Gan Biao Yi hugs you for a while?”
Wait till Zhao Zhao is not crying anymore, Old Madame Yan passes Zhao Zhao to Gu Qiao once again. Just as expected, Zhao Zhao once again rebels with crying.
“A lot of kids don’t like strangers to carry them, they will just cry.” Zhao Zhao’s nanny says.
Another maid says: “But Old Madame Cheng carried Er Shao Ye (Second master: Zhao Zhao), Er Shao Ye also doesn’t cry.”
Zhao Zhao’s nanny: “….”
Old Madame Jing speaks up calmly: “Little kids look like they don’t understand anything, but actually they are the smartest one. They know clearly who should they like and not. They know everything inside out.”
There’s clearly something wrong.
Old Madame Jing’s words simply mean that she is saying that Gu Qiao is not a good person.
Gu Qiao is startled and looks at Old Madame Jing. She seems to be confused why Old Madame Jing is attacking her.
Old Madame Yan looks at Gu Qiao, she feels somewhat sympathy with her. She tries to smooth things up. “How can little kids know about that. You are too unreliable. Qiao Qiao, you cannot stand up too long. Sit down over there. Zhao Zhao is shy with strangers. This is the first time he meet you so it’s okay if he doesn’t want you to hug him. In the future, you can come over frequently. When you are close with him, it’ll be okay. Don’t think too much about this.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles and says. “Qiao Qiao Jie, sit down over here. Zhao Zhao is still too young, please don’t be offended by Zhao Zhao’s action.”
It’s difficult to distinguish whether Ye Qing Xin’s words are true or not.
Gu Qiao sits down on the stool and smiles. “Of course not, Zhao Zhao is very smart.”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “I hope that it’ll be like Qiao Qiao Jie’s blessing words. I am worried that little kids will grow up as stupid as their Jiu Jiu. Qiao Qiao Jie says that they are smart, they definitely will not be stupid.”
Gu Qiao is startled again.
She suddenly realizes why Old Madame Jing will say those words.
So it turns out her words that comparing the three babies and Ye Qing Guo makes Old Madame Jing feels unhappy.
Gu Qiao smiles. “How is it possible. Xin Xin is part of Yan family, she is unrelated to Xiao Guo, how can they look like Xiao Guo? I heard Nai Nai that Gan Gu Fu (Uncle/ Sheng Wen Jun) that he is so great, he is a top-student. Xin Xin is also a great student. These three babies will be so great.”
Old Madame Jing’s face turns much better.
Old Madame Yan just thinks that’s right her Qiao Qiao will not be that careless with her words.
“Oh right. I haven’t given them the red pocket.” Gu Qiao stands up and goes to the table. She takes out three red pockets from her handbag and goes toward Ye QIng Xin. “I don’t know what should I buy for them. So I in poor taste just give the red pocket. Xin Xin, don’t be too modest and take it. Maybe the time I am the one that marry and give birth, you need to give it back to me.”
Gu Qiao laughs.
“Qiao Qiao’s good intention, Xin Xin, take it.” Old Madame Yan says.
Ye Qing Xin takes it. “Thank you Qiao Qiao Jie.”
“I should do tis.”
Gu Qiao stays there for a while, and excuses herself.
Old Madame Cheng also excuses herself to leave.
After they leave, He Shu E, who is watching over the three babies quietly, stands up, she wants to leave too.
“Ma.” Ye Qing Xin watches He Shu E, she notices that He Shu E’s face is so pale. She asks her. “Your face is not look really well, are you okay?”
He Shu E looks at Ye Qing Xin coldly and says: “Nothing.”
“Do you bring your car oer?”
He Shu E nods.
“Bo Yuan, Ma’s face looks so pale. You go and send Ma home. If not, I’ll worry.”
He Shu E looks at Ye Qing Xin, her eyes show her complicated feeling.
Jing Bo Yuan is sitting down with three Old Masters. He frowns and doesn’t stand up.
“Bo Yuan….” Ye Qing Xin says, “Send Ma home. It’s hot outside. What if Ma gets a heatstroke?”
Jing Bo Yuan doesn’t move.
He Shu E looks at him coldly and says to Ye Qing Xin. “No need, I can drive myself home. You just have a good rest.”
“Ma….” Ye Qing Xin has tried, she wants to smooth things up between mother and son.
He Shu E says nothing else, she takes her handbag and leaves.
Ye Qing Xin watches him calmly.
After a moment, Jing Bo Yuan stands up and says to everyone. “I’ll go and come back soon.” Then he goes out of the sickroom.
Ye Qing Xin looks at him and smiles.
Old Madame Jing and Old Master Jing look at each other. They are happy and satisfied with what Ye Qing Xin did.
Since Jing Bo Yuan was little, he lacked of mother’s love. He Shu E is cold. It makes him grow up to be cold too.
They both want them to have an ordinary relationship between mother and son.
He Shu E enters the elevator, the time she turns her body, she notices Jing Bo Yuan coming over. She is shocked and presses the open button.
Jing Bo Yuan walks calmly and gets inside the elevator.
The elevator goes down. There’re only two of them inside the elevator.
He Shu E looks at the metal wall of the elevator. She looks at her son from it.
She suddenly realizes. Without her knowing, her son has grown to be so tall.
In the past….. in the past , she went abroad. She never took seriously and cared about her own son.
That time her heart was full of complaints and resentment toward Jing Zong. She hated. She vented her resentment and anger to her own son.
In the beginning, Jing Bo Yuan always wanted to stick with his Mama. He had a lot of achievements at school, he always came first to her to show it to her. Since he was little, he always had remarkable achievements. Everyone was praising him to be talented. But he just wanted his Ma’s praise.
That time he was still little, he didn’t understand how to hide his own feeling. He Shu E knew about his feeling but her heart was full of hatred. She couldn’t praise him as that time she didn’t love Jing Zong.
He Shu E remembers that time Jing Bo Yan was just an eight years old kid, he had ever asked her whether she likes him or not. Without any doubt, she just shook her head. She thought that he would run and cry. But his eyes turn dark and he looked at her. He asked her with his soft child voice: “Then what should A Yuan do to make Mama likes me?”
He Shu E took a thick textbook and threw it to him. She said. “The time you can memorize everything in this book, I’ll like you.”
Then within half a year, Jing Bo Yuan didn’t bother her.
Then one day, he took that thick English book to her. He said to her. “I’ve memorized everything. Mama, you can check it.”
She didn’t believe it that time. She opened and tested him and turns out he memorized everything.
She sighed and when she remembered about Jing Zong again, she just threw the books and mocked him. “You thought by memorizing this book, I’ll like you? Stupid!”
Jing Bo Yuan’s smile just disappeared that time, his eyes turn dark.
After that time, Jing Bo Yuan never bothers her anymore. Every time they meet each other, he will just lower his head and greet her politely. “Mama.” He never shows any feeling or long for affection toward her.
