Chapter 1724: We didn’t Mean to Abandon You

“Ge Ge, don’t let your mom drink anymore. Quickly bring her back to her room. If she drinks any more, she’ll really get drunk.”

Qu Xiujie’s voice was filled with nervousness as he did not expect to see Zhang Manhua. The person who could not let go of the past was her and not him. In this world, there were more people who lived in pain than he had imagined.

“Alright.”

Pei Ge nodded and reached out to support her mother, but she could not pull her.

“Uncle, my mom...”

Pei Ge seemed to be hinting at something as she looked at Qu Xiujie with a hint of nervousness but could not pinpoint what she was nervous about.

“No, me.”

Qu Xiujie stood up and looked at Zhang Manhua who was half lying on the table. He said gently, “Sister, I’ll send you back to your room to rest.”

“I don’t want to go back to my room. I want to be here. Let go of me and don’t touch me. I still want to have another drink with Xiujie.”

Zhang Manhua’s face turned red as she sat on the chair, unwilling to get up. Even Qu Xiujie’s hand that was supporting her was slapped away by her as her voice was filled with drunkenness.

“Sister, listen to me. Hurry up and get up. Let’s go back to your room to rest. If you continue lying here, it won’t be good if the three children see you.”

Qu Xiujie looked up at the carpet not far away. The three children were playing with their toys and did not seem to care about them.

“Children? Where are the children?”

Zhang Manhua raised her head, but clear tears at the corner of her eyes slid down her cheeks to her chin. Her voice was cold. “Xiujie, I’m really sorry. We didn’t mean to abandon you.”

Seeing this, Qu Xiujie felt pain in his heart. Even if his mother really wanted to abandon him back then, he was no longer the child from back then. He had long seen through it and knew the helplessness his mother felt when she left Qu family.

How could he blame Zhang Manhua?

Qu Xiujie’s eyes were filled with heartache as he tightened his grip on Zhang Manhua. “Sister, it’s over.”

“But it’s not over yet for me. I’m still sad. I’m still thinking if I didn’t get sick back then and didn’t forget you, would I not abandon you? Would I be able to go to Qu family and bring you back so that the three of us can live together?”

In wine there is truth; it turned out that in Zhang Manhua’s world, the saddest thing was not her leaving Qu family but the fact that she did not bring the little boy with her when she left.

And now, the little boy had grown up. He had become sensible despite his initial hatred. He would rather get rid of all the ruthlessness he had and exchange it for his sister’s peace of mind.

“Sister, it’s already in the past. I don’t hate you guys anymore. When I found out that you guys left me so that I could have a better future in the Qu family, I stopped hating. In my heart, you guys are the most important people to me. No matter where I go, what I do, or even what identity I have, I will always remember that I have an elder sister who is waiting for me at a faraway place.”

Qu Xiujie’s eyes were calm and his words were like pearls. Pei Ge and Ji Ziming, who were sitting on the chairs, continued to listen quietly.

They might not know much about the matters of the previous generation, but the two of them could understand the feeling of being forced to leave.

Just like how Ji Ziming and Pei Ge were separated back then.

When Qu Xiujie finally persuaded Zhang Manhua to go upstairs to rest, only Ji Ziming and Pei Ge were left in the living room. The three children followed Qu Xiujie back to the room upstairs. There were more toys in the room than in the living room.

Pei Ge sat on the chair and the plate in front of her was still filled with dishes. Other than Pei Ge’s plate of burnt red braised fish, the other dishes were all touched by the three children while adults rarely touched their chopsticks.

“Ge Ge, let’s go upstairs and rest.”

Ji Ziming raised his head and looked at the darkening sky outside. The warmth in his heart slowly surrounded Pei Ge. As long as he could bring her some warmth, it would be the source of his happiness.

“Ziming, do you think what I’m doing is good or bad?”

Pei Ge raised her head and met Ji Ziming’s gentle eyes. The depth of her eyes reflected the dullness and confusion in them.

“There’s no right or wrong in this world. As long as it’s what you want, I’ll always support you, but if you’re unhappy or don’t want it anymore, I’ll bring you with me. Ge Ge, you must remember that what I want is always your happiness and happiness. Only then will I be happy and blissful. Only then can I prove that you’re mine.”

Ji Ziming pulled out a chair and walked in front of Pei Ge. He lowered his head and placed his fair fingers on Pei Ge’s lips. His fingers gently caressed her pink lips. His actions were gentle yet filled with love. As long as the person in front of him was happy and safe, he would be happy.

If not, then everything would be meaningless.

“But, Ziming, I’m suspecting that I did something wrong...”

Pei Ge lowered her head and gently moved her lips away from Ji Ziming’s fingers. This was supposed to be a gentle act, but at this moment, she only felt a chill running down her spine. As long as she turned around, she would be able to see the silhouettes of those who had paid a heavy price for her wrong decision.

“So what if it’s right or wrong? I don’t care about it; I only care about you.”

Ji Ziming was certain that if it was someone were to make Pei Ge unhappy, he would have many ways to make that person disappear from her sight or even from this world.

As long as she was willing, he would do anything for her.

“Ziming, I understand. Let’s go upstairs and rest. I don’t want to think about anything now. I just want to be with you properly. I just want to be with mom and uncle. It’s enough if our family is together.”

Pei Ge’s face turned slightly red and she seemed to be tipsy. However, this drunkenness surrounded her and even engulfed her heart and her deepest desires.

“Okay, let’s go upstairs and rest.”

Pei Ge stood up and leaned backward. In a moment of carelessness, her toes hit the chair again. She thought she was going to fall on the floor and make contact with the smooth tiles.
