Chapter 1018: 1018-Discussion
Reborn In Space: Pampering The Genius Doctor And Businesswoman
Chen Xi was a little flustered and apologetic. Feeling everyoneâs probing eyes, she quickly apologized,âIâm sorry, Zhao âer. Aunt saw someone dragging her out just now, so she asked out of curiosity. Knowing that she was your cousin, she thought about it and asked her to stay. She ate at an inconspicuous place next door as a way to repay your adoptive parentsâ kindness. I just didnât expect her to suddenly run overâ¦â Iâll bring her back nowâ¦â
She made it sound like Jing Yunzhao was treating her guests badly.
âThereâs no need.â Jing Yunzhao smiled.â Thanks to my aunt, I was bitten by a dog. If I donât explain myself, Iâm afraid everyone will think that Iâm a heartless person. Who will dare to interact with me in the future?â â
Under everyoneâs eyes, he still had to do his face work.
âZhao âer, did aunt do something wrong?âChen Xi said hurriedly, a little flustered. Her gentle and kind appearance made people worry for her.
âAunt is an elder. I wonât blame you if youâre wrong. Howeverâ¦Uncle knows my past very well. Why donât you know about it, Aunt?âJing Yunzhao paused for a moment before she continued,â After I recognized my family, my uncles went to check on me too. Many things happened to me in the past. For example, I was abused by my foster father when I was young, and my foster mother ignored me as a tool to protect her children. Did Aunt ignore all these?ââ
Chen Xi then quickly said,âI donât know much about these things, and you know this person after all. Itâs not good to chase him out like this.ââ
âWhatâs wrong with that?â Jing Yunzhao denied it and continued,ââAuntie, donât you know what kind of pain I suffered when I was a little? Do you not know or do you not want to know? You hang around in front of me every day and ask me all sorts of questions. You canât wait to know everything about me. Iâve already said that even if Uncle didnât tell you what he found out, you should still remember what I said.â
Shen Xiâs expression changed. She knew that Jing Yunzhao was lying.
The two of them did meet almost every day, but every time, she was the one who brought food to Jing Yunzhao. Jing Yunzhao did not talk much either, and most of the time, she was just trying to find out what was going on.
âYouâre the birthday girl, so whatever you say goes. Iâll get someone to bring her down now.âShen Xi used the method of retreat to reverse the advance.
âCousinâ¦â Song Xiaoyu called out again, still struggling as if she didnât want to give Chen Xi any face.
Jing Yunzhaoâs face suddenly turned pale.ââDonât you feel guilty calling me cousin? Which relative of the Qiao family didnât speak coldly to me? Now that youâre suddenly here to acknowledge me as your relative, are you trying to ruin my reputation?â
âItâs ironic that you want me to take care of my adoptive father! Two or three years ago, someone pretended to be my biological parents. Not only did my adoptive father not help me, but he even beat me up and sold everything about my childhood. It was so bad that I almost believed that those people were real. Not only that, they even found countless reporters to say that I was ungrateful and made it publicâ¦However, someone has already judged me for what happened back then. Iâll know if Iâm heartless or not once I investigate. You know very well whether youâre spouting nonsense here and accusing me of having bad intentions.â
âI didnât want to talk about the past, so I asked you to leave. If I really wanted to pursue the matter, not only would I have to take care of my adoptive father, I would even sue him to jail!â
