Chapter 2473: Unable To Say (2)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“I understand.” Chen Feng smiled bitterly. His grandparents had told him all about the resentment and grudges between those of the previous generation before he had left to live with his mom.
Chen Feng knew the elderly couple had told him about their son’s disgraceful past not to ruin their son’s image in their grandson’s heart, but because they hoped that their grandson would understand Qiao Zijin and not be led astray or cheated by Qiao Zijin.
They had always felt that Qiao Zijin would never harm Chen Feng since he was her only son.
But as Qiao Zijin’s ex-parents-in-law, they were even clearer that Qiao Zijin was filled with warped ideas.
Sometimes, she didn’t even realize that she was leading Chen Feng astray and that her teaching would eventually harm him.
To prevent that from happening, Father and Mother Chen had no choice but to let their grandson handle everything at such a young age.
They had no other choice. They didn’t have much more time to spend with their grandson, and this was the only thing they could do for him before he left.
There was another thing that Father and Mother Chen were worried about.
After Qiao Nan married Zhai Sheng, she became the chief’s wife.
Even though Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan had never tried to take revenge on them, the Chen family was still afraid that it was bound to happen one day.
It was the Chen family that had wronged Qiao Nan in the first place, but Chen Feng might very well try to deal with Qiao Nan under Qiao Zijin’s guidance.
Even a saint wouldn’t be able to bear with it, much less Qiao Nan.
To protect their only grandson, Father and Mother Chen had no choice but to be brutally honest with Chen Feng about the truth, even if that meant that Chen Jun’s image would be entirely ruined in Chen Feng’s mind.
They had no other choice. Since they hadn’t managed to protect their son, they had to protect their grandson, at the very least. They couldn’t possibly watch their grandson dig his own grave by trying to deal with Qiao Nan.
What Father and Mother Chen didn’t know was that Chen Feng had always had special feelings for Qiao Nan. He felt that mothers should be like Qiao Nan and not treat him the way Qiao Zijin treated him.
When he saw Qiao Nan, Chen Feng couldn’t hide the envy and regret in his eyes. Why was his mother Qiao Zijin and not Qiao Nan?
“Auntie, thank you. You don’t have to worry about me. I’m all grown up and can take care of myself well.” No matter what his mother told him, he would never be influenced by her or look upon his auntie as the bad guy.
Chen Feng was utterly grateful that his grandparents had been truthful with him before he had left.
In these two years, Chen Feng had realized that his grandparents’ worries weren’t unfounded. As long as he was at home and not studying, the conversation between him and his mom would never stray from his auntie. But his mom had never once praised his auntie.
Thankfully, he already knew about the truth. Otherwise, given his distant memories of his auntie from the past, as well as his mother’s constant brainwashing, he would have started hating his auntie, feeling as though his auntie had ruined their family’s happiness.
“Okay.” Qiao Nan could only reply curtly.
Qiao Nan had no idea why Chen Feng wanted to meet her today, but it didn’t feel right for her to speak up first. As such, she simply waited for Chen Feng to do so.
Chen Feng smiled bitterly. Was his auntie really afraid of his family because of his parents? “Auntie, my mom is in Ping Cheng. She won’t come to the capital. You don’t have to worry.”
He hadn’t lived with Qiao Zijin for a long time. After all, he lived in the high school dormitory. They had probably lived together for no more than three months altogether.
Perhaps, one might ask why it wouldn’t even be three months since there were summer and winter vacations.
But Chen Jun was still well and alive, and Father and Mother Chen were still taking care of Chen Jun. On weekends, Chen Feng usually didn’t have the time or energy to visit them.
But when it came to long vacations, he naturally headed home to visit them.
Qiao Zijin had tried to stop Chen Feng from going, but Chen Feng was all grown up and was even taller and more muscular than Qiao Zijin. There was no way she could stop him.
Thankfully, Chen Feng knew his limits. Besides, Father and Mother Chen had reluctantly allowed Qiao Zijin to take Chen Feng away so that he could be shielded from the rumors and grow up in a new environment without Chen Jun’s influence.
Father and Mother Chen were already elated that their grandson was filial enough to visit them during his holidays.
Father and Mother Chen weren’t even certain how long more Chen Jun would be able to live, or whether they would have good fortune and wouldn’t need to send their own son off.
Even when Chen Feng came to visit, Father and Mother Chen would always ask Chen Feng to watch Chen Jun from afar, not allowing him to get near.
They had to take all precautions.
All of the Chen family’s hopes were on Chen Feng alone. Father and Mother Chen wouldn’t allow anything to go wrong with their grandson. They couldn’t take such a blow.
Knowing that Father and Mother Chen took care of Chen Feng and took all precautions so that Chen Jun wouldn’t spread that dirty disease to Chen Feng, Qiao Zijin had no choice but to let Chen Feng visit them no matter how displeased she was.
But every time Chen Feng returned from visiting Chen Jun, Qiao Zijin would confirm several times that Chen Feng had indeed not touched Chen Jun or any of his things.
Chen Feng knew what Qiao Zijin was afraid of. He wasn’t going to gamble his youth away either. Every time he visited, Chen Feng took care of his grandparents and tried to lessen their load.
Father and Mother Chen had never had any intention of letting Chen Feng touch any of Chen Jun’s things.
Hearing Chen Feng say that, Qiao Zijin’s attitude eventually softened.
As long as the Chen family didn’t harm Chen Feng and he wouldn’t bring anything dirty back to drag her down, there was no need for her to stop Chen Feng from being a filial son.
Even while Chen Jun was in this state, Chen Feng was still willing to acknowledge Chen Jun as his father. Because of that, Qiao Zijin had all reason to believe that Chen Feng would never abandon her even when she grew old and was no longer able to take care of herself.
Based on that logic, Qiao Zijin no longer tried to stop Chen Feng. After all, Chen Feng was Chen Jun’s son too.
The more filial Chen Feng was, the more reassured Qiao Zijin was. She no longer had to worry about her old age.
