Chapter 241 Broken
Chapter 241 Broken
The cheerful voices inside were interrupted by the sound of the door opening. Ji Xia almost staggered forward. She stood in the living room, and the scene in front of her made her stand there in a daze, unable to think.
"Is this true?" Ji Xia couldn't believe it.
When Ji Gang heard the door open, he felt something was wrong. Was it Xia Xia? She wasn't working! He stood up with the help of a stool. His empty left leg looked particularly ironic, and his face was embarrassed with a hint of flattery: "Xia Xia, why are you back?"
There was a steaming hot pot in the middle of the table, surrounded by a circle of exquisite dishes, including lobster, abalone, sea cucumber, and imported ham. The four of them looked so close that they looked like a family.
Li Qian pushed the stool away in embarrassment and ran over, saying in a trembling voice: "Xia Xia, listen to what your mother is saying, I..." For some reason, she looked at Ji Xia's eyes that seemed to have been sucked out of her soul, and the words in her throat could not come out.
Song Yurou placed her chopsticks on the table, methodically took out a piece of paper to wipe her mouth, smiled and turned around and called out, "Sister Xia Xia, you're back. Have you eaten yet? Can I get you an extra bowl?"
There was a hint of provocation in her innocent expression. Song Yurou did it on purpose. She finally waited for this moment. It was really boring to play the role of a loving father and a filial daughter with this group of poor people, but it was worth it to see Ji Xia so distraught!
Zhang Guoguo's eyes were darting around in the back. She had no idea what was going on. She just felt that Xia Xia's back, which had been straight in front of her, suddenly bent down.
Coincidentally, Jiang Qingyan contacted Zhang Guoguo the moment he landed. He wanted to see Xia Xia as soon as possible and give her a surprise.
Zhang Guoguo briefly explained the situation here. She knew that if Xia Xia broke down emotionally, she might not be able to comfort her.
Jiang Qingyan was struck by lightning. He didn't expect everything to be so coincidental. The man immediately drove out of the airport and drove quickly to Ji Xia's house, leaving Zhou Yu alone to wait for the luggage.
"Hey, what's up?" Zhou Yuanheng was testing a new car at his season car club. "Why didn't you spend time with your girlfriend and chat with her? Why did you think of calling me, an old, lonely widower?"
"Something happened to Ji Xia. Report it to your uncle. Find a way for me and I'll send you the route." Jiang Qingyan was so anxious that he wanted to fly over directly, which was in stark contrast to his usual behavior.
Zhou Yuanheng immediately put away his nonchalant look and said, "I'll do it right away."
After the call, I still felt something was wrong, "Hello, Gu Jingrong, something happened to Bingkuai's partner..."
On the other side, Grandma Ji saw Ji Xia standing there in silence, sensing the tense atmosphere. She stood up and said in a smooth-talking manner, "Xia Xia, we all know about that matter. Yu Rou is your sister. We will treat you both equally well in the future."
Ji Xia's eyes seemed to be about to explode when he noticed the TV stand behind him. Song Yurou's TV series was still playing on it. She didn't forget to watch her TV series while eating. He squeezed out the first words of the day from his dry throat: "When did you know?"
Ji Gang, Li Qian and Grandma Ji looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
The room was heated, but why was she still so cold? Ji Xia looked at the three people's evasive gazes and felt as if her heart was being cut open by a knife. She couldn't help but ask again, "When?"
Song Yurou brushed off the non-existent dust on her body and said, "Sister, don't be so aggressive when talking to your parents. We have known each other for half a year. When you are busy, I can come and accompany Mom and Dad."
She won. Looking at Ji Xia like this, she knew that she won.
Ji Xia, you are better than me in everything: looks, acting skills, fans, popularity, but here, I can seriously injure or even kill you.
Ji Xia's rationality was completely shattered by the words "Dad" and "Mom". She turned around stiffly and staggered to leave. She would die if she stayed here any longer, she would really die.
Everything is fake.
"Mom, you also made a doll of me for your sister? I'm so touched~" Song Yurou would not let Ji Xia go easily, so after seeing what was hanging on the side of the small bag she was carrying, she succeeded.
Ji Xia paused, turned stiffly, and reached out to touch the pendant on her bag. Tears welled up in her eyes as she asked Li Qian, "Who is this doll?"
Li Qian didn't dare to speak at this moment. She looked at Ji Gang for help. She was afraid that if she said it, it would hurt Xia Xia.
Ji Gang leaned on his crutches and said dryly, "Xia Xia, calm down and give us a chance to explain to you, okay? We didn't hide this from you on purpose. I'll tell you everything today."
Ji Xia still held the key in her right hand, and she used so much force that the tip of the key pierced her palm, but she was completely unaware. "Tell me," Ji Xia wanted to know why.
The people in the room just stood there. Ji Gang could only face the tearful eyes of his daughter, whom he had loved since she was a child, and said, "Half a year ago, when we were still living in the courtyard, Yu Rou came to see us. She said that the Song family treated her badly and wanted to arrange a marriage for her with an old man who was several decades older. If she couldn't make a name for herself in the entertainment industry, she would be married off. She has always been thinking about us, but she couldn't help but repay the Song family for raising her. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to make it in the entertainment industry if she told others about it. We have been in contact all the time."
Grandma Ji took the opportunity to add, "Xia Xia, you're doing well in the circle, and your boyfriend is rich. Can you take Yu Rou with you? How do you say it? I mean, give her some resources. You two are sisters, so you can go further by helping each other."
Li Qian added softly, "Xia Xia, we didn't hide it from you on purpose. We were just afraid you wouldn't be able to accept it."
Ji Gang expressed his true thoughts, "Xia Xia, Yu Rou and we are related by blood. We cannot disown her. But even if Yu Rou comes back, it will not affect our love for you. You are all my children, and we will treat you all the same."
Ji Xia listened to these words and felt that all the details and strange things she had thought about before were explained clearly. She asked in a trembling voice, "No wonder the bed sheets in my room were changed to yellow. It turns out that it was Song Yurou's favorite yellow. The extra things in the kitchen were also given by her. No wonder you came to Kyoto without any persuasion this time. It wasn't for me. I was scolded like a sieve, and no one sent me a caring word. It turns out that you were caring about your own daughter and this doll."
She choked up when she said this, and suddenly laughed bitterly like a madman, muttering, "So that's how it is, haha, I'm just a joke."
Li Qian felt distressed when she saw Ji Xia like this. She quickly went up to comfort her and hugged her: "Xia Xia, don't be like this, you..."
"Don't touch me!!" Ji Xia roared.
"Sister, how can you talk to mom like that? Don't you know she's not in good health?" Song Yurou was enjoying the fun.
"Shut up, you are not worthy to call me sister, get out!" Ji Xia glared at Song Yurou. She didn't expect that after she came here, she changed the trajectory of her family, saved three family members, and ended up ruining herself.
There is so much love in my memory, but it is like fragile clouds that disappear with a breeze.
