Chapter 28: Is Ge’er Not My Sister?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The atmosphere turned silent.
Actually, Mr Qin and his wife did feel guilty towards Pei Yunge, but they could not turn it into fondness for her. This was especially the case for Mrs Qin.
At this moment, Qin Youjiao bit her lip hard, and there was a trace of gloom flashing past her face.
Third Brother had never cared about Pei Yunge before.
Why was he so concerned about Pei Yunge’s existence now?
…
When Pei Yunge went downstairs, she found that the family had not started dinner and seemed to be waiting for her. Strange…
“You’re here. Let’s go and have dinner,” Mr Qin took the lead and said.
“Mm,” Pei Yunge replied without much care and sat down together with them.
After a while, Mr Qin found a topic to talk about. “Why didn’t you come back with Jiaojiao?”
“I didn’t want to.”
Pei Yunge’s concise reply made Mrs Qin frown. But when she looked up and met with Pei Yunge’s eyes, she froze.
It seemed she had forgotten what she wanted to say.
Pei Yunge’s eyes were similar to hers. Even though it gave people a totally different feeling.
Mrs Qin immediately looked away and picked up the wine glass with her hand shaking slightly. There was an almost indiscernible sense of anxiety in her actions.
She could never erase this blood relation.
Never.
This scene was seen by Pei Yunge, and she remained calm and composed as she watched Mrs Qin, a mocking look in her eyes.
Out of the blue, Mr Qin asked, “The old madam of the Lu family is having a birthday party in a few days. Yunge, do you want to go?”
This question almost made Qin Youjiao’s hand freeze and her back stiffened.
If Pei Yunge went, wouldn’t her identity be exposed sooner or later?
“Usually, these are all attended by Jiaojiao, there’s no need to change it,” Mrs Qin suddenly interrupted worriedly, as though she was afraid that Pei Yunge might snatch away Qin Youjiao’s things.
Qin Lang’s eyes turned even colder. “Mom, up until now, nobody knows that Ge’er is our…”
“Why can’t you be considerate to your sister?!” Mrs Qin interrupted Qin Lang and questioned him accusingly.
Seeing how Mrs Qin was protecting Qin Youjiao so fiercely, Qin Lang clenched his fists.
He really wanted to tell Mrs Qin that the daughter she had loved so dearly, did not even attend her funeral when she had passed away in such a miserable state!
What sister? Did this so-called beloved daughter of hers even deserve to be here?
Not only that, Ge’er, the daughter whom Mrs Qin regarded as nothing, threw half of her life away to donate her bone marrow to her when her body was in a bad condition!
Qin Lang took a deep breath. “Is Ge’er not my sister?”
Hearing this family arguing for the first time because of her, Pei Yunge’s eyebrows moved unconsciously.
“Youjiao has always been a pride of our Qin family and the Cheng family will also attend this birthday party,” Mrs Qin retorted after not knowing what to say for a moment.
But she did not feel that her words were indirectly saying that Pei Yunge would be an embarrassment to her.
Before Mr Qin could say anything, Pei Yunge laughed.
“I don’t want to go.”
In fact, she just wanted to break away from the Qin family. The original protagonist really had a good temper to be able to stay in this home for so many years.
“Ge’er, Zihuai doesn’t… have feelings for you.” Mr Qin paused. “But I can see that he likes Jiaojiao. I don’t want our family relationship to be ruined because of this.”
Of course, how would she not understand? Reading between the lines, these words were all said to protect Qin Youjiao.
Pei Yunge picked at the rice. She had no appetite and the coldness in her eyes was surging.
In the end, her lips curved up into a faint smile. “I’ll answer only once. I’m not interested in any of you, nor do I have any interest in that person from the Cheng family.”
Immediately after that, Pei Yunge stood up and left the dining table. “Alright, I’m finished now. The rest of you can continue your meal.”
Not used to this from Pei Yunge, this rebellious attitude made Mr Qin and Mrs Qin unable to react.
“Where do you think you are going?” Mr Qin finally asked with a dark expression.
