Chapter 136: The Story of the Wild Vegetables

Qin Ran still looked at Qin Yang indifferently, but she didn’t say anything.

“I remember that at this time last year, you were still a little girl who liked to watch fireworks.” Qin Yang missed those years very much. At that time, his biological sister was still by his side.

“So the evidence that you said you have on Zhao Fang is just a pretense to lure me here?” Qin Ran really regretted coming out of the Mo Residence and getting into Qin Yang’s car.

“It’s my fault for lying to you first, but Ranran, I really want to give you more happiness to make up for your unhappiness in the past.” Qin Yang’s voice was choked with sobs. Perhaps he had lived for nearly thirty years. When Qin Ran needed family the most, not standing by her side was the thing he regretted the most.

Qin Ran shifted her gaze away from Qin Yang and started to size up the scenery around the venue. The sun was setting. She raised her eyes and looked into the distance. The boundary between the heavens and the earth gradually became blurry, and the yellowish sunlight scattered in it. This atmosphere was indeed nostalgic, and it was easy to recall the past that had quietly passed.

Qin Ran took two steps forward and casually broke off a stalk of wild grass by the side of the road. She turned around and said to Qin Yang, “For as long as I can remember, I’ve been in the countryside. Every spring, there’s a kind of wild grass called Cui Zhu growing all over the mountains and plains. This wild grass is very delicious, but it’s extremely difficult to make. The requirements for the heat are especially harsh. It’s easy for it to melt if the fire is too big, but it would be half-cooked if the fire is too small.”

Although Qin Yang did not understand why Qin Ran was telling this story about weeds, he still listened to her patiently.

“I like this dish very much, so I dig up a lot of this Cui Zhu grass every spring. I don’t know how many times I fell and was injured because of this. Then, I would return home while sweating profusely and try to cook it again and again. However, I just couldn’t succeed in cooking this dish. Year after year, after three to five years, I still didn’t know how to cook it. In the end, I realized that I suddenly didn’t like to eat this dish, and even said that I hated this dish. Why do you think this is?”

Qin Yang was listening carefully to every word that Qin Ran said. Actually, the question that she raised was not difficult to answer. “Perhaps you’ve sacrificed too much for this dish, so much so that when you think of it, you feel that it’s very tough, so you naturally resist it from the bottom of your heart?”

Qin Ran’s back was facing Qin Yang, so at this moment, he could only see her back which was nodding gently. “At that time, I didn’t understand either. It was only later that I understood. Because when I saw this Cui Zhu grass, my first reaction was that it was no longer a delicious delicacy, but the injuries on my hands and the sweat on my head. Naturally, I hated this dish more and more. For example, your Qin family in my eyes now.”

At this point, Qin Ran turned around and saw the shock in Qin Yang’s eyes. It turned out that she wasn’t telling the story of wild vegetables for no reason. She had been telling him about herself all along.

“Qin Yang, just like you said, a year ago, I was like a little girl. A little girl who wanted to integrate into the Qin family. At that time, I always thought that as long as I was more sensible and obedient, my parents and brothers would definitely love me as much as they loved Qin Xue. That process was too torturous and hard. Therefore, when I think of your Qin family now, when I think of going back to that family, I feel unhappy. It’s all because of the depression from before.”

Qin Ran’s every word came from the bottom of her heart. She only hoped that Qin Yang could understand what she meant. To her, the best compensation now was that the Qin family would never disturb her.

“Ranran, I really…”

Before Qin Yang could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Qin Ran, “Qin Yang, if you really want to make it up to me, please think from my perspective and understand my story seriously, okay?”

When Qin Ran said this, Qin Yang did not say anything. There were so many freak combinations of factors in this world. Perhaps there was no longer any fate between him and Qin Ran. When she wanted her brother to dote on her, he did not notice her. But now, she had already survived all the difficult years alone and no longer needed him.

In the end, it was a belated affection. It was nothing.

“Let’s go back!” Qin Ran only wanted to return to the Mo Residence and Mo Chi’s side.

Qin Yang was stunned for two to three seconds, but he didn’t say anything else. He personally opened the car door and escorted Qin Ran into the car.

They were halfway back and were about to enter the city. However, neither of them spoke since they got into the car. The atmosphere was a little awkward.
