Chapter 1262: Chapter 1622: Not Acknowledging
“Forget it, your family doesn’t have a single good person,” Su Xue scoffed. “If you want a friend, go befriend Song Zishan! She’s great, a good friend.”
“Haha…” Zhou Hengguang couldn’t help but laugh, earning a glare from Su Qing.
Zhou Hengguang didn’t take it seriously and gave Su Xue a thumbs up as a sign of admiration.
For the first time, Su Xue tried to speak her mind and found it very satisfying. In a great mood, she also gave a thumbs up, showing her appreciation for his earlier criticism of Song Jinyan.
Su Qing helplessly held her forehead. What was all this about? She had never seen them act so cheeky before.
“Su Xue,” Su Qing called her little sister.
“Oh!” Su Xue was discontent with Song Jinyan, but she still listened to her second sister’s words, especially when outside, the sisters always had an understanding to stand on the same front. Any conflicts had to wait to be dealt with at home.
They would never argue in front of outsiders and make a spectacle of themselves.
“You should go back! You’ve done what you could, and we appreciate it, but that’s all there is to it. We hope not to see each other in the future.”
Su Qing had always tried to stay calm and objective, and she could see clearly that things had come to a satisfactory conclusion. The debts of wrongdoing had been repaid, and their parents were no longer alive; nothing could change that.
The emotional wounds wouldn’t heal quickly.
“Actually, you should learn from your grandfather,” Su Qing revealed a complex expression, it was hard to tell if it was mockery or praise, “Your grandfather did well, straightforward and albeit seemingly cruel, but that’s exactly what we needed.”
Song Jinyan clenched his fists tightly. “What do you mean by that?”
The others also stared intently at Su Qing, not understanding why she suddenly said this.
Only Zhou Hengguang, watching Su Qing’s eyes, emitted an astounding brilliance.
“Denial is the best choice for both of us, because all we see in the Song family are hatred and helpless guilt of being unable to avenge. Can you understand? The taste is not pleasant, and even speaking with you now is making me very unhappy. Your grandfather must have known; he must have thought the same as we do.”
Song Jinyan’s body trembled, a fleeting emotion called grief flashed across his handsome face, “I understand, and I’m very sorry for troubling you.”
“Don’t apologize; you didn’t do anything wrong. It was all the older generation’s issues, nothing to do with you. On the contrary, we should thank you. Without you, we wouldn’t have been able to vent today,” Su Qing said sincerely.
“Heh,” Song Jinyan gave a bitter laugh, but said no more, then turned around and walked away with Songshan.
Watching Song Jinyan’s tall and lonely figure, Su Qing said nothing, but her eyes were particularly cold as she turned away.
Su Xue snorted discontentedly, “Big sister, why did you thank him?”
Su Qing ignored her, and Zhou Hengguang casually said, “It’s not a thank you; it’s about stabbing a knife into Song Jinyan’s heart. Little sister, learn more about what a ‘soft knife’ truly means in heartbreak from your big sister,”
After saying that, he even poked Su Xue with his finger.
Su Xue had never been touched in that manner by anyone. Although her brother-in-law was very nice to them, he always maintained a somewhat distant distance. He was especially affectionate towards the little sister, but he barely spoke to the older ones.
Su Xue hadn’t expected that her brother-in-law’s brother, although not looking as distant as her brother-in-law, had a coldness in his bones that was even more intense than her brother-in-law’s.
