Chapter 20: Repentance
Chapter 20: Repentance
Yu Huailin sensed the resentment in Qiu Tianlei's eyes as he looked at him, but he was puzzled as to what he had done to elicit such a reaction from the man.
Although he didn't say anything, he focused all his attention on the people in the room.
Yu Huailin found Qiu Tianlei's attitude towards his mother amusing.
He knew about blind filial piety, but this was the first time he had witnessed it firsthand.
Song Miqiu was unaware of the secret rivalry between the two men, and upon hearing Qiu Tianlei back down, she naturally couldn't say anything more.
In some respects, Qiu Tianlei's actions weren't really that problematic; it was just that Song Miqiu didn't want to cause so much unnecessary trouble.
"Since you understand, then go apologize to him. No matter what, it's impolite to make such indiscriminate accusations against others."
Song Miqiu wanted to change Qiu Tianlei.
Although it is unknown whether the original owner of this body has any relationship with the Qiu family, in the memories of this body, Qiu Tianlei has always respected his mother.
Song Miqiu will leave sooner or later; we can't let Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei continue living in their current state.
If they keep going like this, they'll be ripped off by the Zhuo family sooner or later, leaving them with nothing but bones.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tianlei showed no negative emotions and turned to face Yu Huailin with a very sincere attitude.
"Sorry, I'm just a straightforward person. I was too harsh with my words just now."
He didn't have a large vocabulary to begin with, so it was really not easy for him to say these words now.
Yu Huailin didn't intend to hold it against him; he had indeed implicated them in this matter.
However, considering his current status, he shouldn't accept such an apology with such a blank expression.
"I...I'm fine, I'm fine! I've dragged you all down with this, please don't be like this, I..."
Seeing Yu Huailin's terrified and anxious expression, as if he wanted to disappear into the ground, Qiu Tianlei cursed him inwardly as a good-for-nothing!
If I hadn't seen him as a good-for-nothing, I wouldn't have bought him in the first place!
Upon seeing the bounty notice, Qiu Tianlei felt somewhat uneasy.
Is this person really that vicious?
Wouldn't he have bought a jackal and a tiger?
But looking at him now, Qiu Tianlei even doubted whether this was the person on the wanted poster!
Or are they just the same-looking?
But in any case, it seems that this matter has now been put to rest.
Song Miqiu was finally satisfied.
"That's right! Once this storm passes, nobody will remember this. And you absolutely mustn't go out and spread rumors, understand?"
"I know mother."
Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei readily agreed. Song Miqiu repeatedly told them, and they realized something, so they naturally stopped talking nonsense.
The atmosphere in the room eased considerably, but everyone fell into an eerie silence.
Song Miqiu was preoccupied and didn't notice anything unusual. Qiu Tianlei glanced at Tian Yumei and gave her a meaningful look.
Although Qiu Tianlei often criticized Tian Shi, the couple still had a great understanding of each other.
Tian Yumei immediately understood what her husband meant.
"Mom, you ran out in such a hurry before, and the two little ones were so worried. I comforted them and that's why they didn't chase after you. Now that you're back, they're still eagerly waiting for you."
"Look, there's nothing else here. Why don't you go take a look? That way, the two little ones won't overthink things."
Upon hearing Tian's words, Song Miqiu suddenly felt annoyed.
I was so focused on checking on Qiu Tianlei that I forgot the two little ones must have heard the commotion.
Despite their young age, they already know a lot.
Even if they intended to hide it, the two little ones were probably scared, right?
“I didn’t think it through. Come on, let’s go with Mom to see those two little ones.”
After Song Miqiu spoke, Madam Tian immediately stepped forward to help her leave.
In fact, Song Miqiu really wanted to say that it was unnecessary. She was younger than Tian Yumei and didn't need anyone to help her walk.
But in the end, she did not refuse.
Now that you've accepted this identity, try your best to adapt.
After the two left the house, Qiu Tianlei stopped pretending.
