Su Zhengxing finally sent Lin Qiao back home. She should spend such an important event as the New Year with her family.
With soothing music playing and the car’s air conditioner blowing warm air, Lin Qiao leaned on the passenger seat’s headrest, her eyelids twitching uncontrollably. After the car turned a few intersections, she fell asleep again.
Su Zhengxing saw that she had fallen asleep, so he turned the music down to minimum volume, letting the gentle melody accompany her to sleep.
Lin Ji was waiting downstairs in the residential complex. After Su Zhengxing parked the car, he was about to wake Lin Qiao when Lin Ji stepped to the car window and stopped him.
“Let her sleep. She didn’t sleep well last night.”
Lin Ji carried Lin Qiao down from the passenger seat and nodded in thanks, “Professor Su, thank you for the trouble today.”
“It’s not a big deal.” He said.
Lin Ji was about to walk towards the unit door with Lin Qiao on his back, but after thinking for a moment, he stopped.
He turned around and asked in a voice that was not loud enough to wake Lin Qiao, “Professor Su, what do you think my sister is like?”
“Warm-hearted, brave, kind, and persistent.” He answered without much thought.
She was warm-hearted, saving a stranger on the roadside; she was brave, disregarding danger to step forward when a criminal was about to attack; she was kind, dashing into traffic to pull back an ignorant child; she was persistent, even when he kept pushing her away. She was the only one who always moved forward toward him, no matter how many steps he took.
“I didn’t expect her to be so good in your eyes.” Lin Ji smiled.
“In fact, she can also be inferior, sensitive, irritable, and negative. She also has the same emotions as others. If one day you feel that she is different from what you imagined, it’s not that she has become bad, but that you can no longer see her good side.”
“So, Professor Su, if possible, please always, always look after her well.”
…
What is family? It probably means living together even if there are conflicts.
After Lin Qiao returned home, everyone in the Lin family tacitly stopped talking about what had happened yesterday and pretended that nothing had happened.
In the end, the uncle and aunt did not get what they wanted and only borrowed the symbolic 10,000 yuan from Zhuang Yun.
From this, it seemed that everyone had a calculation in their hearts. The so-called brothers and the emphasis on feelings were just choices made after weighing the pros and cons, and Lin Qiao’s interests were the ones that could be given up after weighing the pros and cons.
New Year’s Day was originally a day for visiting relatives and friends, but Lin Qiao had a grudge and didn’t want to leave, so she didn’t go with them. As they were about to leave, Lin Ji knocked on her door.
“Are you really not going to Grandma’s house?”
“They’ve never wanted me to go since I was little, so why bother going there? If you go there, you will be the precious grandson and the pride of the family, but if I go there, I will only get ridicule and sarcasm from my aunts and uncles. Why bother making things difficult for myself?”
Lin Qiao lay in bed holding her mobile phone, not even raising her head.
Seeing this, Lin Ji said no more and let her have a good rest at home.
After they left, Lin Qiao looked at everyone’s daily New Year’s celebrations posted online. Everyone’s face was filled with smiles, and the world seemed very lively. Unfortunately, all this liveliness had nothing to do with her.
After putting down the phone, Lin Qiao lay back on the pillow.
In this world, only those who are loved have confidence, but if possible, who doesn’t want to be loved?
If she can’t get a lot of love, then she must get a lot of money. Love has conditions, but money does not.
