Chapter 228: Alienation (2)

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

However, usually, he was busy with work. He had limited time for vacations.

He had never expected his daughter to be the one to tell him that she’s busy.

It didn’t matter whether or not his daughter was actually busy or whether she was just avoiding them.

Their relationship was not the same as it used to be.

There was a gap between them now. A gap that could not be easily overcome.

As Jian Shuxing thought about this, his heart began to feel sour.

He Yan was happy to see the scene in front of her.

Jian Yiling’s change had made her seem like a different person. This was not a good thing for her. The Jian Yiling of today was not as easy to control as before. She had become a little hedgehog that would prick people.

However, the relationship between Jian Yiling and her family had become weaker. This meant that the things that she had done before were effective. This was the result that she wanted to see.

Wen Nuan walked up to Jian Yiling. She had a soft and bitter smile on her face.

She gazed at Jian Yiling before saying, “Yiling, I still owe you an apology.”

Wen Nuan had finally said the words that had been stuck in her heart.

Once again, they were in a hospital room. Once again, Jian Yunnao was lying on a hospital bed.

Wen Nuan finally said the apology that she owed to Jian Yiling.

She said the apology even though Jian Yunnao was still unaware of the meaning behind the apology.

She said the apology even though it was late.

There were only two people in the room who didn’t understand the apology.

One of them was Jian Yumin. He didn’t know about the situation that had happened. Jian Yujie and Jian Yiling had been intentionally hiding the matter from him.

The other person was Jian Yunnao.

He assumed that his mother had done something to make Yiling sad.

In the face of Wen Nuan’s apology, Jian Yiling didn’t reply.

This apology... Maybe it should not have been made to her.

Jian Yiling understood the situation.

And thus, she decided to not respond.

By refusing to give a response, Jian Yiling had run a sword through Wen Nuan’s heart.

However, when Jian Yiling took a look at the pained expression on Wen Nuan’s face, she quickly said:

“You don’t need to apologize to me.”

Jian Yiling’s words fell into the ears of Wen Nuan and the rest of the family. However, they had interpreted her words completely differently.

They interpreted Jian Yiling’s words as her alienation and resentment towards them.

Wen Nuan’s expression was incredibly painful. However, she endured the bitterness and the pain in her heart. She remembered what Grandma Jian had told her.

Jian Shuxing hurried forward and hugged his wife. He tried to soothe her emotions.

He knew how sad his wife felt at this moment. He was in the same boat as her.

Jian Yiling didn’t know how to deal with the scene in front of her. She turned her head around and looked at Jian Yujie.

Jian Yujie immediately smiled and attempted to direct the conversation away to a different topic, “Yiling, I’ve learned a new magic trick recently! I’ll show it to you. Look carefully! Don’t blink.”

Jian Yiling nodded and looked at Jian Yujie.

Jian Yiling felt more relaxed when she was communicating with Jian Yujie and Jian Yumin.

And thus, she instinctively chose to talk to Jian Yujie.

She wasn’t deliberately trying to escape anything. Rather, she just wanted to do things that she was more familiar with and used to doing.

Cheng Yi arrived at the ward. He helped Jian Yiling do the post-operative routine checkup on Jian Yunnao.

The reason for this was because of Jian Yiling’s situation. Furthermore, Cheng Yi was afraid that it would be too exhausting for Jian Yiling to handle. And thus, he had volunteered himself to help her with the post-operative tasks.

As soon as he came in, he saw Jian Yiling. He happily greeted her:

“Hello, Yiling! You had time to come over today?”

As far as the Jian family knew, Cheng Yi and Jian Yiling were quite good friends. They had met each other in a game.

“Mhmm.”

“After I finish the examination of Mr. Yunnao, why don’t you come over with me to the office? Sister En misses you quite a bit.”

“Okay.”

Cheng Yi knew what Jian Yiling wanted. He knew that she wanted to work whenever she had time.
