Chapter Twenty-Nine: Aunt Cousin
However, it is clear that Qian Qiao is not an ordinary person.
Because she finally remembered where she had seen this jade pendant.
In the later part of the original text, Shi Ai took Qianqiao's relics and wanted to keep them as a memory, but was accidentally discovered by the Yun family, thinking that Shi Ai was the baby girl, so he sent killers to assassinate him many times.
As a result, the heroine found the Yun family's base camp, and after learning the truth, she destroyed the Yun family in a fit of rage, which can be regarded as avenging Qianqiao.
So even if they know her background, Qianqiao will not return to the Yun family, and she will have to wait for the notice of the magic academy after a year at the Nangong family to start the main plot~
"Qianqiao, it's about your life experience, I hope you can listen calmly..."
After some ideological struggle, Nie Lei still decided to tell Qianqiao that long pain is better than short pain.
It's much less painful to say now than to learn the truth later when she has hope.
"You are the daughter of Yun Zhao, the former head of the Yun family, and Nalan Yingyue, fifteen years ago, you were just over a hundred days ago, and your parents took you out to visit friends, but not long after, the soul lamp that the two of them were enshrined in the Yun family ancestral hall suddenly went out. After the Yun family found out, they hurried to the place where the soul lamp was finally extinguished, only to find that this place was empty, and there were still traces of a fight nearby, the Yun family guessed that your parents might have suffered an accident, and you were too young and had no ability to protect yourself, so you were also regarded by the Yun family..."
In the last sentence, Nie Lei felt that it was difficult to speak, so he stopped directly, and then looked at Qianqiao nervously with Lin Jia, for fear that she would not be able to withstand the blow.
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, I knew I was an orphan since I was a child, just..."
Qian Qian frowned slightly, as if she was hesitating about something.
"Say whatever you have and we'll help you. ”
Lin Jia immediately reassured.
"That's... Can I continue to stay in Nangong's house?"
Qian Qian looked at Lin Jia with a little apprehension.
"It's... Don't you want to go back to the Yun family?"
Lin Jia didn't expect Qianqiao to ask this, after all, there were still people in the Nangong family who were hiding in the shadows who wanted to harm her.
Coupled with the hot and cold violence that Qian Qiao has suffered since she was a child, compared to the Yun family, the treatment must be much worse.
"I grew up in Nangong's family since I was a child, and although some unpleasant things have happened, I have been living there for a full fifteen years, from the first time I spoke, to the first time I walked, and then to the first time I cultivated... Many firsts have made up the current me, and the grace of raising is greater than the grace of life. If it weren't for the nurturing grace of the Nangong family, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago. So for me, Nangong is my home. ”
Qian Qian paused slightly and glanced at the child and mother on the table.
"And the Yun family, now that my parents have passed away, what's the point of me not going back? Since the Yun family thinks that I am gone, my appearance will only cause them trouble... If I had to choose between Nangong and the Yun family, I would choose Nangong, because there are still people here who care about me like Lecturer Lin. ”
Qian Qiao raised her head, and there was indescribable sincerity and tenacity in her clear eyes.
Lin Jia looked at the girl in front of her who hid the suffering she had suffered and thanked her for the grace of nurturing, and suddenly felt that a corner of her heart had collapsed.
This troubled child can always easily attack her fragile heart, making her both sad and distressed, and the hands at her side unconsciously clenched and loosened, and after repeating it many times, she resisted the urge to take Qianqiao into her arms.
"Okay, let's not go to the Yun family, in the future, you will be the child of the Nangong family, the adopted daughter of Nangong Zhengyang, and I am Nangong Zhengyang's cousin, so you should call me cousin." ”
