The girl’s lackadaisical voice was still clear.
Everyone’s eyes turned towards the voice and they saw Pei Yunge walking towards them from the door. Finally, her eyes fell on Old Master Qin.
When Pei Yunge looked at the old man in front of her and saw the happiness in his eyes, she hesitated for a moment. “Grandpa?”
“Ge’er, did something happen along the way? Or is there too much homework in school? Why did you lose so much weight?”
The more Old Master Qin spoke, the more his heart ached. Holding Pei Yunge’s hand, there was guilt and self-reproach in his eyes. If he had a stronger body, he could have kept Ge’er by his side and let her live a good life for another ten or twenty years.
But God made a fool of him. His body could not last for another year or two. If he died, he would be most worried about Ge’er.
Thinking of this, Old Master Qin’s eyes turned red.
“No.”
Pei Yunge could see that the old man in front of her was really good to her, but for the time being, it was difficult for her to accept the family of the original protagonist.
Before long, a helpless look appeared in Pei Yunge’s eyes and she said with a light laugh, “Grandpa, I fell asleep during self-study class, so I didn’t come here in time.”
Hearing this, Qin Youjiao looked contemptuous, and the corners of her lips could not help but lift up in a sarcastic smile.
Fell asleep during self-study class?
How long could such a person stay in Hengde??
Not only Qin Youjiao, but also Mr and Mrs Qin frowned unconsciously. They did not expect Pei Yunge to be so ignorant and incompetent.
She had fallen asleep in class? Did she not feel ashamed at all?
But when Old Master Qin heard this, he took Pei Yunge’s hand with a smile and led her to the hall.
“That’s good! High school students should know how to strike a balance between work and rest!”
Hearing such biased words from Old Master Qin, Mrs Qin felt uncomfortable and frowned. “Jiaojiao has to do exercises even after a day full of classes. Sleeping in class? If she can’t pass the university entrance, wouldn’t she be a laughing stock?”
As soon as her voice fell, Mrs Qin felt Old Master’s Qin icy gaze and her mouth immediately snapped shut.
Then, Old Master Qin sneered. “Who dares to laugh at my granddaughter? The inheritance left by me, Qin Kaiming, is enough for my granddaughter to spend her whole life!”
These words made Mr and Mrs Qin’s expressions darken, and Qin Youjiao was left seething, as the feelings of jealousy and resentment coursed through her.
How was this old man not biased! His heart was clearly running behind Pei Yunge and lifting her to the high heavens!!
Old Master Qin was too lazy to care about the three people beside him and said kindly to Pei Yunge, “My darling grandchild, our family is not short of money. If you can’t pass the exam, it’s fine. Your three brothers will take care of you in the future. If they don’t, I’ll break their legs.”
…
If it was before, Qin Lang would definitely snort.
But now, Qin Lang’s handsome face was full of care and he looked at Pei Yunge’s side profile. “As long as Ge’er is willing, I’ll put all of my money into her bank account.”
Hearing Qin Lang saying this, Qin Youjiao’s face turned green with envy!
What had happened suddenly? Qin Lang’s attitude towards Pei Yunge was even more doting than he was to her before. How could she not sense the disparity? Qin Youjiao bit her lip hard and tried not to let herself lose her composure.
Suddenly, she took Mrs Qin’s hand with a gloomy expression on her face. “Mom, am I not supposed to be here?”
When she saw her daughter’s downtrodden expression, Mrs Qin felt a stabbing pain in her heart and she immediately took Qin Youjiao’s hand as she said to Old Master Qin, “Dad, Jiaojiao has a gift for you. She has prepared for a long time for it. Isn’t she so filial? Please open it and have a look.”
