Chapter 1024 Pressure
"Dad!" After hearing his answer, Qiao Weiyi simply spoke up and said, "I said that day that I needed time to be quiet. It's not that I can't accept your new relationship, I just didn't react at the moment -
—”
Before she finished speaking, Qiao Zhongxing had already put down the things in his hands, stretched out his hands to support her arms, and said: "Yiwei, listen to Dad, Dad made such a choice not because of you, but because of you.
Because there are indeed many things that we can't do anything about in reality, which cannot be explained in one or two sentences. It has nothing to do with you, you know?"
Qiao Weiwei looked at Qiao Zhongxing and couldn't help but his eyes turned red.
He refused to say it, but she knew it in her heart. How could it not have anything to do with her?
He was obviously ready to introduce Lin Yao to her and wanted her to accept it slowly. If Rong Juan hadn't said those words in front of him, how could he have changed his decision?
But he didn't want her to know. Just as he didn't want her to be wronged and unhappy, he also didn't want her to have any psychological burden.
Qiao Weiwei also didn't dare to tell him that she already knew that Rong Juan had been looking for him.
Because if Qiao Zhongxing knew about it, he would definitely worry about them having conflicts, and she didn't want him to worry either.
"Why are you crying?" Qiao Zhongxing was slightly surprised, but still smiled helplessly and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Dad is an adult and can handle these things. You don't have to worry."
"Dad..." Qiao Weiwei called him hoarsely and said, "I am an adult too."
"I know, I know." Qiao Zhongxing smiled and patted her on the top of her head and said, "So, when you have time, bring your boyfriend back and show him to dad. My daughter's taste must be first-rate."
The only thing Qiao was speechless was that tears burst out of his eyes uncontrollably again.
She didn't mention Rong Juan to Qiao Zhongxing, nor did she talk to him about her boyfriend again. In the next two days, she stayed at home all day without leaving the door.
Under such circumstances, Qiao Zhongxing inevitably noticed something.
On New Year's Eve, Qiao Zhongxing returned home early, and sure enough he saw Qiao Weiwei at home again, trying to make dumplings by himself, leaving a table full of flour.
"The sun is really rising in the west." Qiao Zhongxing said with a smile, "Our Miss Qiao actually made dumplings herself?"
"Of course." Qiao Weiwei said while holding a lump of flour on the tip of his nose, "I told you that I have grown up. You used to take care of me, dad, but now I can take care of you in turn!"
Qiao Zhongxing originally thought that she would tell him that guests were coming for dinner today, but he didn't expect that this was what she said. After being slightly stunned, he nodded and walked into his bedroom to change clothes.
While Qiao Weiyi continued to fight with the dumpling wrappers in front of him, Qiao Zhongxing stood on the balcony of the bedroom and dialed Rong Juan's number.
The phone rang for a long time before he was picked up. The voice on the other end of the phone was low and lazy, incompatible with the handsome and confident young man who stood in front of him last time.
"Rong Juan?" Qiao Zhongxing called his name with some uncertainty.
"Hello, uncle." Rong Juan responded in a low voice.
Qiao Zhongxing immediately confirmed something and said, "What happened? Did you and Weiyi have a fight?"
When Rong Juan heard him ask this, he knew that Qiao Weiwei didn't say anything to him. In this case, he naturally wouldn't say anything either. He just said: "It's nothing, it's just a small matter."
"What is going on?" Qiao Zhongxing said, "Although she always has a smile on her face when facing me, I know that she has been in a very low mood these days. You are all still young, don't do it because
In a moment of anger, what kind of decision would you make that you regret?"
After hearing this, Rong Juan paused and said, "Uncle, don't worry, it's really not a big deal. It will be fine in two days."
When Qiao Zhongxing heard this, he couldn't help but said: "Are you the only one who has trouble with you?"
Rong Juan remained silent and did not speak.
Qiao Zhongxing was silent for a moment, and then said: "Rong Juan, although I have only met you once, but from the last time you chatted with me, I know that you really like Youyi, and I am also sure that you are serious about Youyi."
Yes. As a father, I am of course very happy that a young man like you likes my daughter so much. But I also hope that you can be more understanding and tolerant of Youyi... After all, I have endured a lot with you.
pressure."
"Pressure?" Rong Juan said immediately after hearing this, "What kind of pressure did I put on her?"
"I don't mean you put pressure on her." Qiao Zhongxing said, "This child looks lively and cheerful, but in fact she has a very thoughtful mind. She has lost her mother since she was a child, and she only grew up with my father... It's because I don't have the ability, I don't
It can create better conditions for her, and your family is so prominent. The only thing she has is psychological pressure, so sometimes..."
On the other end of the phone, Rong Juan, who was half lying on the bed, suddenly sat up.
He could hardly hear what Qiao Zhongxing said next, and he could only think over and over again in his mind what he just said, "She was already under psychological pressure."
It turns out that she was under psychological pressure because of his origin?
Why had she never revealed it in front of him?
Or maybe the reason why she was so angry that day was just an expression?
Rong Juan sat on his bed, speechless for a long time.
In fact, after the two had a dispute that day, Qiao Weiwei was angry, and he was angry too, so he simply flew back to Tongcheng without sending her a message.
Unexpectedly, he didn't send her a message, and she didn't send it to him either, so Rong Juan became even more angry and spent the past two days in a state of madness.
But now when he heard Qiao Zhongxing tell him that she was under psychological pressure and that she was also very unhappy, he suddenly felt a little regretful.
It turns out that in such a stalemate, both people will be unhappy. If that's the case, why bother?
Besides, he was the one who put the pressure on her in the first place...
"...You may think I'm a bit selfish when you say this, but she is my baby daughter, and I really hope she can be happy. I believe you are the one who can make her happy, so I hope you can be kind to me in some ways.
It’s time to give in a little bit…”
"Uncle, don't worry, I know what to do." Rong Juan said, "I'll call her now."
After hanging up the phone from Qiao Zhongxing, Rong Juan immediately dialed Qiao's only number, but when the call came out, the phone was turned off.
Rong Juan couldn't help but jumped up from the bed. Just as he was frowning and thinking of something to do, there was a sudden knock on the door. It was Rong Heng calling him from outside: "Brother, it's time to go."
Rong Heng told him that it was time to go to his uncle's house for a family reunion dinner, but Rong Juan suddenly came to his senses, took his wallet, opened the door and ran out.
Rong Heng who was outside the door was knocked staggered by him, but when he saw him going downstairs without looking back, he couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Where are you going?"
