Chapter 128: He's Also an Orphan

“Stop it.” Qiao Yanhui’s expression turned cold.

“Hmph! You’re so annoying!” With that, Qiao Yanqi covered her face and ran out crying.

Qiao Yanhui’s expression darkened as he said to Hua Yuncheng, “Go and keep an eye on her!”

Without another word, Hua Yuncheng hurried out.

Qiao Yanhui looked at Deng Jiangming coldly. Didn’t they know that Qiao Yanqi had been clingy towards him since she was young? Now that she suddenly found out that he was getting married, she definitely couldn’t accept it! However, Qiao Yanhui didn’t expect Qiao Yanqi’s reaction to be so intense.

Qu Feng didn’t know what to say. She stood in the courtyard in a daze while feeling very awkward.

Xu Qing, who was in the room, also had mixed feelings. Qiao Yanhui’s sister clearly didn’t accept her… Xu Qing sighed. She hoped that things would change after they got married. Qiao Yanhui probably doted on his sister a lot. She didn’t want to make things difficult for Qiao Yanhui.

Late at night, Qiao Yanhui sneaked into Xu Qing’s room and hugged her. It had only been a day since they last met, but he was already missing her.

“Little Hui, why are you here?” Xu Qing stood up and looked into his soulful eyes.

“I’m worried about you.” Qiao Yanhui hugged Xu Qing and placed her head over his chest, as if he was asking her to listen to his heartbeat.

Xu Qing was touched!

“She’s my twin sister, Qiao Yanqi. My mother was pregnant with three children, but the other child was a stillborn. She only gave birth to my sister and me. My mother and my second brother died… My sister had been weak and sickly since she was young, and because of our family’s situation, she suffered all kinds of hardships. We were constantly under the threat of assassination attempts from a young age, so she relied on me. I indulged her, so she grew up to become so willful.” Qiao Yanhui’s gaze turned cold as he recalled the past.

Xu Qing’s heart ached as she hugged Qiao Yanhui. How lonely was he when he was young because of his background? She could completely understand the feeling of not having parents.

She’d once been an orphan, too. Back then, every time she’d woken up in the middle of the night, she’d think about how others could hide in their parents’ arms while she could only feel the cold around her… she’d dreamed of a warm embrace holding her, even for a second, but there had never been one.

“I’ll get along with her,” Xu Qing said softly.

Qiao Yanhui smiled and kissed her gently on the forehead. “Go to sleep,” he said gently. “We’re getting married tomorrow. I don’t want to see a haggard bride.”

Xu Qing nodded in satisfaction. She, who had been suffering insomnia for a long time, quickly fell asleep in Qiao Yanhui’s arms.

The next morning, before dawn, Xu Qing was woken up by Qu Feng. Xu Qing was stunned. She had to wake up so early to get married? Fortunately, the three children were not awake yet. Otherwise, it would be chaotic.

Xu Qing also knew how to put on makeup. Although she wasn’t as professional as Deng Chengxi, she at least made herself look prettier than usual. Coupled with the gorgeous wedding dress, she couldn’t help but feel stunned by her own appearance.

Qu Feng stood at the side and watched, but her eyes turned red and she secretly shed tears.

Xu Qing had planned to sleep for a while more when she heard Qu Feng sobbing. Her heart ached as she said, “Mother, don’t cry. Even if I get married, I’ll still be by your side.”

Xu Qing could finally understand the feeling of her friends who got married in the past. In the past, every time she saw her friends leaving their parents on their wedding day, they would be crying miserably. Of course, she didn’t understand. Their families weren’t far away and they could go home at any time. Why would they cry? It wasn’t a life and death parting!

But now, Xu Qing truly understood that no matter how close their new home was, just like how as she was still in this courtyard, some things were different. She would be a married woman, so she could no longer hide in her mother’s arms and wheedle! In other words, she had grown up and was no longer a little girl. She had a new family of her own, a different family from her original one.

“Yes, I won’t cry. My daughter has grown up! You have to be happy.” Qu Feng quickly wiped her tears and said with relief. She was reluctant, but also happy. As a mother, she wanted her child to be independent.

“Mother, don’t worry. Don’t you know me? I’ll definitely be happy! I’ll always be by your side.” In Xu Qing’s memory, Qu Feng loved her very much. Even though she had not been the real Xu Qing for the past ten years, she was already her now! She could also feel her mother’s love for her.
