Xia Jingfei felt awkward for a moment as she stood there, not knowing what to do. Her eyes gradually reddened, like a rabbit's, as she looked toward the door.
After a while, she nodded in panic. "Oh, oh! I-I know. Thank you for listening to me."
With these words, she turned and walked out of the door in a daze.
Xia Jingfei had thought that Qin Yu was standing by the door, listening in the corner. But she did not expect to find Qin Yu sitting on the couch, eating an entire plate of fruit. When she came out, Qin Yu jumped off the couch and ran in front of her without wearing her slippers.
"What's wrong?" Qin Yu looked into Xia Jingfei's reddened eyes and asked angrily, "Did that old pervert bully you?"
"No!" Xia Jingfei shook her head vigorously. If Liang Jiahao didn't allow her to hug him, was that tantamount to bullying her?
"Qin Yu, Liang Jiahao is a very good man. If you give up on him just because of me and let him be snatched by other women, you will definitely regret it."
"So be it." Qin Yu said casually, "Any man who can be seduced and snatched away by other women so easily, is not a good man. I don't need such a man in my life."
Actually, Qin Yu was just casually speaking, according to what Xia Jingfei was saying. But who knew Liang Jiahao would be leaning against the door of the study while looking at her and listening to her? The corner of his mouth curled up slightly. "You are right!"
Qin Yu: "...."
What did she say?
What made Liang Jiahao so happy?
Xia Jingfei looked at Liang Jiahao and then looked at Qin Yu. She took a deep breath and carved a smile. "Alright, I have to go. If I don't go now, I won't be able to leave. Qin Yu, I hope the next time we meet, we will remain good friends."
"Of course!" Qin Yu hugged her. "Do your job well. No matter what happens, don't forget to call me. No matter where you are, I will definitely find you and help you."
When Xia Jingfei left, Qin Yu remembered the radiant smile she showed. It was as if Xia Jingfei was relieved. Qin Yu even forgot that she had been forced by Xia Jingfei to leave Liang Jiahao the other day.
Meanwhile on the other side, Dong Biming acted like she was going crazy, crazily looking for Xia Jingfei's whereabouts everywhere. Even Xia Yong didn't go to work and was forced to look everywhere with Dong Biming.
After Dong Yong received the call, he hurriedly sent people to look around.
They searched through the airport, the train station, and every possible place in the Imperial City, but no news of Xia Jingfei was received.
At night, Dong Biming returned home depressed. She cried and pointed at Xia Yong while scolding, "This is all your fault! You never cared about Fei'er. If you spoke kindly to her last night, would she do something like run away from home? She left because she didn't feel warm love at home!"
Xia Yong was scolded to death by Dong Biming. Since she was so upset, he didn't want to argue with her.
In fact, everything that had been written in Xia Jingfei's letter made it clear that the reason she left was because she wanted to go out and see the outside world. She wanted to escape the golden silk cage that Dong Biming had created for her.
However, Dong Biming was clearly unaware of her mistake. She had to find someone to blame.
Dong Yong hurried into the house. Seeing his aunt sobbing loudly, he sighed. "Aunt, don't cry anymore. My sister just wants to go out to have a rest. It's not a big deal."
"Who said that!" Dong Biming immediately glared at him. "You're just like your uncle. You said it was nothing, but what happened now? You forced my Fei'er to run away from home!"
Xia Yong was speechless with anger. "Stop blaming me for this! Can you stop being unreasonable?"
"You!" Dong Biming angrily scolded him. "Besides you, I can't think of anyone else! You really like a son, that's why you treated someone else's son as your son! You never care about your daughter. That's why only I feel the pain!"
Xia Yong: "...."
Dong Yong: "...."
Back then, when Dong Biming wanted to marry Xia Yong, Dong Yong was already born. When the elders of the Dong Family found out that Xia Yong was also called Yong, they wanted to change the name of Dong Yong.
Later, the old woman of the Dong Family went to the temple to pray for blessings and asked for a good name for Dong Yong. But the monk in the temple said, "This child is named Dong Yong. If you change his name, he will lose his spirituality."
And since they had no other choice, the old woman could just leave Dong Yong's name as it was.
Because of his name, Xia Yong always considered Dong Yong as his own son. Ever since he was little, Dong Yong would run to the Xia Family's house every time he was beaten. Xia Yong was more protective of him than Xia Jingfei.
Dong Biming had always thought that Xia Yong favored Dong Yong over Xia Jingfei was because they had a daughter.
In reality, it wasn't that Xia Yong didn't care about Xia Jingfei, but because Dong Biming had been watching her closely. If he continued to interfere, Xia Jingfei would probably break down and commit suicide.
Xia Yong was so angry that he couldn't say anything, so he just sat down on the couch and sighed.
Dong Yong felt wronged because he had taken the beating for no reason. However, he also didn't dare to say anything to Dong Biming now. He feared that if he interfered in this matter, Dong Biming would decide on something bad that she would not be able to take back.
If they didn't find Xia Jingfei on time, Dong Biming would probably ask for a divorce from Xia Yong.
Therefore, Dong Yong and Xia Yong didn't say anything, while Dong Biming thought of all the useless things by herself.
"It's all because of Qin Yu! She actually dared to steal Fei'er's boyfriend, she's not human!"
Dong Yong was shocked. "What does this have to do with Qin Yu? Aunt, can you stop blaming someone else?"
"It's all her fault!" Dong Biming looked up and glared hatefully at Dong Yong. "If she hadn't stolen Liang Jiahao, Fei'er wouldn't be so upset! Otherwise, how could she have run away from home?"
Dong Yong knew a little about Xia Jingfei and Liang Jiahao, and he had heard a little about them from Han Yuanjun.
Han Yuanjun had told him that Liang Jiahao didn't like Xia Jingfei, but she seemed to have fallen in love with Liang Jiahao. Han Yuanjun had asked Dong Yong to help persuade Xia Jingfei to stop liking Liang Jiahao.
Dong Yong didn't even have time to persuade her before this thing happened.
He shook his head gloomily. "Aunt, this has nothing to do with Qin Yu. Liang Jiahao never liked Jingfei and he didn't have eyes on her!"
"Bullshit!" Dong Biming shouted at the top of her lungs.. "My Fei'er is so good, how could Liang Jiahao not like her? It was because of Qin Yu! She had used a vile trick on Liang Jiahao until she managed to hook him over! Because of her, my daughter ran away from home. I won't let her off easily!"
