Chapter 251 Children Need Comfort
Chapter 251 Children Need Comfort
Ji Xun peeled two rice dumplings and looked at Grandpa Ji's remains, muttering to himself:
"Grandpa, these two dumplings, one is made by me and the other by my sister. My sister's is very cute. She is very good. She is very smart. She can make them as soon as I teach her."
"Grandma Kang and my sister are so kind to me. Grandma Kang treats me like her own grandson, and I'm very happy."
"But my sister also treats me like her own brother. I am very sad and my heart aches."
"I shouldn't be sad, right? I'm too greedy, right, Grandpa?"
"But, Grandpa, I really, really like her. I like her so much that I hope she only has eyes for me and I want to be by her side forever. Whenever I think of her smiling at other boys, I get jealous. My heart aches so much that it feels like it's bleeding, and I wish I could die."
"Grandpa, am I pushing my luck too far? Grandpa, what should I do? I feel so bad..."
Ji Xun spoke, his eyes lowered with unresolved sorrow and pain. But he didn't know that Grandma Kang, standing not far behind him, had her eyes wide open, staring at his tall, slender, dejected figure in disbelief.
His thoughts returned, Ji Xun's eyes became moist. Looking at Grandma Kang's kind and gentle face, he could no longer hold back.
"Grandma... I... I know I shouldn't... but I..." Ji Xun choked up, feeling as if his throat was blocked by a ball of cotton, unable to speak. Did he have to admit in person that he shouldn't like Shang Qing? He, he couldn't do it.
"Yesterday, when you secretly kissed Qingqing, I also saw it." Grandma Kang said a shocking fact that made Ji Xun even more embarrassed.
"Grandma, I..." Ji Xun's face flushed red. He didn't know what to do. He clenched his fists nervously, not even noticing his fingers turning white. He was afraid that Grandma Kang would chase him away. If that happened, even his humble hope of just being by Shang Qing's side would be gone.
Grandma Kang patted his shoulder, tears welling up in her eyes. "Silly boy, if it really is you... I'd be happy."
Ji Xun suddenly looked up, staring at Grandma Kang in disbelief with his desperate and confused eyes, thinking he had heard it wrong, and his breathing became rapid.
"Yes, I mean, if you really are with Qingqing, we'll be together forever and won't be apart." Grandma Kang smiled, a heart-wrenching smile. The more she thought about it, the better it seemed. She excitedly promised, "I see how good you are to Qingqing, and of course I will bless you both."
"Grandma!" Ji Xun lay in Grandma Kang's arms, like a little kid seeking comfort, his voice choked with sobs, "But, but, my sister has a boyfriend. She likes him very much. I don't have a chance. Wuuuuu."
At this moment, Ji Xun is just a pure child. In front of his relatives who are seeking comfort and can confide his grievances, he unscrupulously exposes all his repression. He desperately needs someone to understand him, listen to him, and help him.
"Qingqing has a boyfriend?" Grandma Kang was confused. She had never heard Shang Qing mention this. What was going on?
"Besides, that boy is not a good person." Ji Xun finally found an outlet to vent his anger, how could he hold it back any longer.
"Ah? Not a good person? Have you seen him?" Grandma Kang was even more shocked. Since Xiao Xun said he was not a good person, he must not be a good person.
"Yeah. I saw it with my own eyes. He, he was secretly dating Ai Xuan without my sister's knowledge. They both deceived my sister!" The corners of Ji Xun's pretty eyes were tinged with red, tears were sparkling in his eyes, and his long eyelashes were covered with moisture. He looked so aggrieved that Grandma Kang felt even more distressed.
"Or it's with that kid Ai Xuan?! This... this... is too much! I'm going to settle the score with them!" Grandma Kang's chest was heaving with anger, and she almost jumped up to go out and fight.
Ji Xun hurriedly stopped her and tried to comfort her: "Grandma, Grandma, we can't let my sister know. She will be very sad."
After hearing what Ji Xun said and thinking about Shang Qing's character, Grandma Kang felt that Ji Xun was right. But she felt a lump in her throat, unable to let go, and it made her feel uncomfortable.
"No!" Grandma Kang slapped her thigh and stood up.
Ji Xun was startled by Grandma Kang's words: "Grandma, what's wrong?"
"No wonder Qingqing was so drunk last night, mumbling about whether he liked her or not, and saying things like, 'No, this must be a misunderstanding,' and she seemed to be saying things like, 'I shouldn't do this, I can't do this,'" Grandma Kang frowned, looking worried. "Xiao Xun, it seems Qingqing has noticed it too. They must have assured her that they were fine. That's why Qingqing drank!"
Thinking about last night, when she was taking care of Shang Qing, Shang Qing's eyes were red with grievance, and the incoherent words she spoke intermittently, Grandma Kang analyzed it rationally. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case.
In fact, how would Grandma Kang know? What Shang Qing said had nothing to do with Chen Yangchen and the others!
Grandma Kang was furious. How could such a good granddaughter of hers be hurt by these two bad-behaved children? She was so young and yet she did such a thing. She was not a good person.
The wrongly accused Chen Yangchen and Ai Xuan had no idea that the grandparents were scolding them. At this moment, it seemed that they could only carry this heavy responsibility.
Ji Xun panicked. Was this the reason Shang Qing called him yesterday? He hadn't been there for her the first time. Was he leaving her to endure this pain alone?
He kept it a secret because he was worried Shang Qing would find out, and Shang Qing actually found out anyway. Did she find out because she heard about it from a classmate at the reunion? If so, how upset and depressed she must have been at that time!
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, a suffocating feeling coming on. Ji Xun clenched his fists tightly, ready to go out and settle the score with them.
Grandma Kang quickly stopped them and said, "We can't let Qingqing know that we know."
Ji Xun nodded in agreement.
Grandma Kang took the phone and searched for it: "I have Ai Xuan's WeChat. I'll ask them to come out and take care of it."
"Grandma, I'll go with you." Ji Xun was not willing to let Grandma Kang go alone.
Grandma Kang refused: "Qingqing is still feeling unwell. I'm worried about her being alone at home."
Realizing this, Ji Xun agreed: "Then let's wait until my sister is okay before we go."
Grandma Kang patted Ji Xun's hand solemnly and said soothingly, "This matter is not convenient for you. It's best if I come forward alone."
In her opinion, Ji Xun was still a child. It was best for an adult like her to handle such immoral people and such dirty things. How could she allow her bright and beautiful grandchildren to be involved in such things?
Ji Xun could only watch as Grandma Kang's proud and confident figure disappeared through the door. He was worried, so he had just installed something on Grandma Kang's collar so that if there was any emergency, he could quickly resolve it.
Ji Xun, who was sitting restlessly at home, listened carefully to the voice coming from the video. His heart was beating fast and he almost got angry!
