After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

Mrs. Feng sat on the chair expressionlessly, letting her tears fall.

After a long time, Feng Nian heard her say: "No matter what, Jiaojiao cannot be involved in this matter. Since she wants to apologize, then I will apologize for Jiaojiao. She is my daughter, no matter what Jiaojiao will do Whatever punishment you receive will be borne by me.”

Lin Xi has lived in Qiao Xing's house for a while.

Although her condition is much better now, Wang Qin still feels very sorry.

She would call Lin Xi every day and also tell her not to cause trouble to Qiao Xing no matter what.

"Grandpa Qin is old. You must know the etiquette and must not upset the old man. Do you understand?"

Lin Xi said: "I know, Grandpa Qin is very good to me."

Wang Qin understands this, and she also knows that if Grandpa Qin and Qin Ce had not supported Qiao Xing, Lin Xi would not have been able to live with Qiao Xing.

So, she was always grateful for that.

Lin Xi became more talkative during this period, and took the initiative to ask Wang Qin, "Mom, are you okay in the store? Are you tired?"

Wang Qin felt warm and relieved when she heard her daughter's proactive concern.

She knew that Lin Xi became like this all because of Qiao Xing's good care.

Wang Qin said: "Mom is fine. Don't worry about her. After this matter is completely resolved, she will take you home to live, okay?"

"Ah."

The two of them were talking on the phone when Qiao Xing walked into the room and said, "Xixi, let's go. I'll take you to buy two pieces of clothes."

When the nanny was arranging Lin Xi's clothes just now, she discovered that several of her clothes were no longer wearable.

Either it's too small, or it's already rotten in several places.

Qiao Xing had never discovered these before.

So when she saw those clothes, she was not only shocked, but also a little puzzled, "Wang Qin doesn't usually buy you clothes?"

Although Wang Qin only works in a cake shop, her monthly salary is only three to four thousand yuan.

But she has no debt, and she doesn't need to pay off car or house loans. Her monthly salary, in addition to some family expenses, is not so poor that she doesn't even have money to buy clothes for Lin Xi.

Lin Xi lowered her head and answered Qiao Xing's words in a low voice, "I...I can't wear new clothes. If I dress too well in school, those people will hate me even more."

Qiao Xing paused and almost laughed out loud.

Of course, she was made popular by those who bullied Lin Xi in school.

She never thought that these children had become so rampant.

It's no wonder that when Wang Qin went to school, she never showed too much enthusiasm towards Lin Xi, and didn't even dare to buy her better food and supplies.

It's not that she doesn't have the money. If she could, even if she spent all the money on Lin Xi, she wouldn't have too many complaints.

But the reason why Wang Qin did this was definitely not because she thought she would be bullied. It might just be that she didn't want other students to think that Lin Xi was someone who needed her mother to worry about everything.

After all, Lin Xi was already fifteen or sixteen years old, a child in adolescence, but because of her autism, Wang Qin had to take care of her as if she were a seven or eight-year-old child.

Qiao Xing was silent for a while, then held Lin Xi's hand and said to her: "Don't be afraid, you can't change yourself because of others. You should be who you are, eat whatever you want, and wear whatever you want. No matter what you wear, only if you don’t care about anything, those people won’t hurt you.”

Qiao Xing's words were still deeply engraved in Lin Xi's heart many years later.

Qiao Xing took Lin Xi to the mall.

She followed her, not like a sister, but more like an older daughter.

Fortunately, these days I follow Grandpa Qin and often play chess and chat with his friends. Lin Xi is considered a granddaughter in their eyes, so they often make her happy.

So now Lin Xi will not be as reserved as before when facing some unfamiliar environments, and will also take the initiative to ask questions that she did not dare to ask before. “Sister, is this delicious? I want to try it.”

Lin Xi pointed to the egg tarts placed in the transparent glass cabinet and asked Qiao Xing expectantly.

Qiao Xing smiled, asked the waiter to take out the egg tarts, and said, "You'll know after you try it."

Lin Xi couldn't wait to take a bite, and then nodded repeatedly, "It's delicious!"

Qiao Xing reached out and touched her head.

There was a hint of relief in my heart.

At her current age, it is the time when she should enjoy her youth the most.

She has no scruples, no worries, can say whatever she wants, and do whatever she wants. This is the real her.

"Don't be reluctant to wear the clothes I just bought for you. From now on, just wear the clothes that look good. People have to dress up well to be in a good mood. Do you understand?"

Lin Xi glanced at the bags next to her and whispered, "But those clothes are too expensive..."

The clothes Wang Qin bought for her cost no more than two or three hundred at most, and the quality was also very good. She could wear one piece of clothing for a long time.

Lin Xi didn't see the prices of the ones Qiao Xing just bought, but the styles and fabrics were not cheap at first glance.

Lin Xi didn't dare to wear it and couldn't bear to part with it.

Qiao Xing said: "It's okay. This is your brother-in-law's money anyway. Just treat it as a gift from him."

Qiao Xing originally wanted to use the money in his card, but Qin Ce refused.

He said that if you don't come to him for trouble, you won't be able to spend money on him. So what does his so-called husband status mean in Qiao Xing's heart.

Qiao Xing knew that this was not a question, but Qin Ce simply wanted to make her rely more on him.

The two of them had just clarified what happened before, so Qiao Xing didn't want to worry about such a trivial matter anymore, so she calmly accepted the card Qin Ce gave her.

She smiled and said to Mr. Qin: "Thank you very much, Mr. Qin."

Lin Xi felt even more burdened when she heard that it was Qin Ce's money.

She didn't communicate much with her brother-in-law, but she knew what kind of person his brother-in-law was.

But Lin Xi also thought that her sister and brother-in-law were all for her own good and hoped that she could accept all new things and change herself.

So this is what they want. If she refuses, both her sister and brother-in-law will definitely be unhappy.

Lin Xi said to Qiao Xing: "Sister, thank you." After a pause, she added: "Thank you too, brother-in-law."

Qiao Xing asked her, "Do you still want to eat egg tarts?"

Lin Xi lowered her head and saw that she had finished eating the few she had just taken out.

She blushed with embarrassment.

Qiao Xing thought that in order not to cause trouble to him, she said she didn't want to eat even if she wanted to.

But she didn't expect that the next second, she heard Lin Xi purse her lips and whisper, "I want to eat."

Qiao Xing chuckled and asked the waiter for some more.

Lin Xi was very happy. Just when she was about to continue eating, she suddenly stopped again.

She said to Qiao Xing: "Sister, there is someone over there who has been watching us..." (End of Chapter)
