Chapter 203: What Can’t Be Lost

No wonder He Sui was so agitated just now. With things turning out like this, who wouldn’t be worked up?
He Zhou sneered. He Jing was really scheming. Butler Cheng only wanted to bring He Jing back to the Cheng family for a while. Of course, He Jing wouldn’t agree. After all, her time in the Cheng family was temporary, while her place in the He family was permanent. Even someone with a bit of sense wouldn’t hurt her own brother’s feelings for short-term gains.
Just like that, He Sui could still be moved to such an extent. Did he think that they had mistreated He Jing?
If Butler Cheng had brought He Jing back to the Cheng family today, He Jing would probably have gotten into a luxury car and left without looking back. She definitely wouldn’t have any trace of nostalgia.
He looked at He Chen, then at He Ning. He asked, “What do you think? If the
Cheng family is willing to exchange Xiao Yi back, will you agree?”
He Chen pondered for a moment and said, “It’s up to the decision of the older brothers.”
Although he was more inclined to He Jing.
He Ning hadn’t spoken for a long time. He lowered his eyes, lost in thought.
Everyone’s eyes were on him. He suddenly stood up and said, “I want to talk to He Jing.”
Then, he walked toward He Jing’s room.
He Zhou was inexplicably furious. He said angrily, “One after another, really obsessed.”
He Yi said, “I still want Xiao Yi to come back. Although He Jing is good, we don’t seem to belong to the same world.” One lived in an ivory tower.
The other struggling for basic needs.
When He Ning entered He Jing’s room, He Jing was concentrating on her homeworld with her hair tied in a bun. She was engrossed in her writing until He Ning walked up to her. She looked sideways and smiled lightly. “Second brother.”
He Ning stood in front of her, his starry black eyes were shrouded in a hazy mist.
He stared at her and stood there for a while before saying, “Don’t take what others say to heart. We didn’t mean it that way.”
“What do you mean?”
“Exchanging you for Xiao Yi.”
He Jing was a little surprised. She hadn’t expected him to come over specifically to explain this matter. She waved her hand and said, “I didn’t take it to heart.”
She knew the general sentiments of the He family members, and even if they considered exchanging her, she wouldn’t be too upset. After all, to her, they were just a group of brothers who had appeared out of nowhere.
He Ning had thought that He Jing would take it to heart. However, she didn’t look like she was. He frowned slightly and pursed his lips. He couldn’t help but ask, “Could it be that everything you said just now was a lie?”
In fact, she still wanted to return to the Cheng family. She didn’t mind if they considered exchanging her.
He Jing thought for a moment and countered, “Then how did second brother feel when you heard that?” He Ning fell into silence.
What was he thinking?
He thought that compared to a love that had ended without a cause, he couldn’t lose his own sister.
Butler Cheng’s visit caused the atmosphere in the He family to stagnate like never before. It was the same for the Cheng family.
When the butler truthfully conveyed He Jing’s words, Cheng Yue’s face stiffened. Ye Shuping screamed, “What an ungrateful wretch. Cheng Yue, look at what you’ve raised.”
Cheng Yue took a deep breath and interrupted her angrily, “Enough! If you hadn’t been so ruthless previously, Jingjing wouldn’t have ended up like this.”
Ye Shuping’s face twisted with anger and shouted, “Cheng Yue, what are you talking about? Are you blaming me?”
If she wasn’t a child of the Cheng family, she shouldn’t have taken over the Cheng family. What was wrong with her kicking He Jing out of the Cheng family?
Cheng Yue recalled the determined look in He Jing’s eyes after she woke up from the hospital after committing suicide. His chest ached. Was he going to lose his daughter forever?
At this moment, a weak and timid female voice sounded from the side, “Dad, why don’t I move out? Sister He Jing must be unwilling to come back because of me. Please don’t argue because of me..”
