Yet Xie Huiyin still constantly compared herself to her.
Xie Qingyu found it somewhat amusing.
Her relationship with her younger sister was actually alright occasionally, but this incident had truly disgusted her.
Fearing that Duan Zihui might actually get involved, she reminded him again, “Anyway, if they contact you again, you absolutely must ignore them. If there are any problems, tell them to come to me.”
Seeing Xie Qingyu’s worried expression, Duan Zihui couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow slightly and ask, “Do you think I’m stupid, or are you?”
“If I’ve got too much money to burn, I might do some charity work to give back to society. Since you said you don’t need it, then naturally I won’t help them.”
“What does it matter to me whether they live or die?”
Xie Qingyu also felt that her worries were a bit unnecessary. After all, Duan Zihui is a businessman, and businessmen are most concerned with profit.
He naturally wouldn’t do something that wouldn’t bring him any benefit.
Xie Qingyu suddenly felt that what she had said was somewhat superfluous.
She quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, “I was afraid that you would do this for Zhuzhu’s sake…”
Her voice trailed off as she spoke.
She even felt like laughing.
How could Duan Zihui possibly show any mercy for Zhuzhu’s sake?
Zhuzhu had absolutely no connection with those people.
She continued, trying to explain, “I was afraid you’d want to help me because of Zhuzhu…”
The more she tried to explain, the worse it got.
Xie Qingyu simply stopped explaining and told him to leave: “Alright, you can go now.”
Duan Zihui didn’t rush to leave. Instead, he looked at her seriously and said, “If it’s about helping them, it’s not because of Zhuzhu. She’s still young; what does she know about these things?”
“As for you… Xie Qingyu, don’t you understand whose face I’m giving?” He said the last sentence very softly, his lips slightly curved, and his gaze was very focused when he looked at her.
Xie Qingyu pretended not to hear and pulled Zhuzhu into the house, saying, “Okay, Zhuzhu, let’s go back.”
“Goodbye, Daddy.”
The mother and daughter went inside, and Xie Qingyu closed the door from the inside.
Duan Zihui looked at the closed door, remembering he still had something to tell her, so he sent her a message, hesitated at the door for a while, and then left.
Xie Qingyu didn’t look at her phone.
She went straight to bed when she got home, feeling quite tired.
When Zhuzhu saw her mother lying down as soon as she came home, she immediately said, “Mom, you haven’t taken your medicine yet. You can only sleep after you take your medicine.”
Xie Qingyu pretended to be dead.
“Mommy~”
“Mommy~”
Zhuzhu tugged at her mother’s hands and feet.
Xie Qingyu finally couldn’t stand being bothered by her anymore, opened one eye, and said in a coquettish tone, “Mommy is sleepy.”
Zhuzhu insisted, “Take your medicine before you sleep.”
Xie Qingyu: “We haven’t eaten yet.”
Then Zhuzhu remembered this, slapped her forehead, and said, “Oh, right~ Dad hasn’t taken us out to eat yet!”
“I didn’t even eat much breakfast.”
Little Zhuzhu was so worried about her mother that she only ate a few bites of the breakfast her father had bought for her and then lost her appetite.
The fact that even the usually food-loving Zhuzhu had lost her appetite clearly showed how worried she was.
Zhuzhu picked up her mother’s phone and called her father.
As soon as the call connected, the little girl immediately scolded her father: “Dad, we haven’t eaten yet. Why did you leave? You’re such a perfunctory father.”
Duan Zihui: “…”
He didn’t forget.
“Wait a few minutes. Dad has already sent someone to deliver the food.”
Moreover, it wasn’t that he insisted on leaving; Xie Qingyu was the one who made him leave.
As soon as Zhuzhu heard that there would be food soon, her face lit up with a smile: “Mom can take her medicine after she finishes eating.”
Xie Qingyu, behind her: Can this child please stop thinking about this all the time?
