Fang Yifan, starting from childhood joy

Page 193

He quickly reached out and gently wiped away Qiao Yingzi's tears.

"Yingzi, don't cry. I'm sorry, I was wrong. I won't tease you anymore!"

Because of Qiao Yingzi's gaze just now, it felt as if a thorn had been pierced into his heart.

He quickly reached out and grabbed Qiao Yingzi's arm, apologizing to her!

"I'm sorry, Yingzi, I was wrong. Please don't cry, okay?"

Qiao Yingzi suddenly wiped away her tears, then stood up and walked away into the distance.

Chapter 284 Yingzi's Heartfelt Words

As Fang Yifan watched Qiao Yingzi's departing figure, he quickly pulled hard and grabbed Qiao Yingzi's arm.

She turned around and fell into Fang Yifan's arms.

Fang Yifan hugged Qiao Yingzi tightly, feeling guilty for teasing her with such a thing.

Qiao Yingzi's eyes were full of determination as she resisted Fang Yifan's embrace.

She tried to push Fang Yifan away with both hands, but the difference in strength between men and women was still very large.

Although Qiao Yingzi usually manages to beat Fang Yifan up, she can't push him away in this situation.

Finally, she stopped pushing Fang Yifan away, and tears streamed down her face.

She patted Fang Yifan's back with both hands, her voice trembling with tears!

"Fang Yifan, let me go!"

Fang Yifan shook his head firmly; he was determined not to let go.

"I won't let it go!"

He knew that when a conflict arises between two people, it's best to resolve it as soon as possible.

Otherwise, who knows what kind of accidents might happen if this drags on? I'm not some brainless male lead in an idol drama.

Fang Yifan silently endured Qiao Yingzi's slaps, because he felt it was what he should do.

After patting for a while, her arms gradually drooped down, feeling somewhat weak.

"Fang Yifan, do you even know what life is?"

Fang Yifan was stunned for a moment. He knew he hadn't misheard, but the question was far too profound.

"do not know!"

He didn't make things up, because that would make Qiao Yingzi dislike him, so he told the truth.

Qiao Yingzi smiled and leaned on Fang Yifan's shoulder!

"I don't know either. Do you know what it feels like to lose a loved one?"

Fang Yifan's body stiffened for a moment, then slowly relaxed.

However, Qiao Yingzi didn't seem to be waiting for Fang Yifan's answer; instead, she was talking to herself.

“When I was thirteen, my parents were arguing at home, throwing and smashing things. I was scared and hid in a corner.”

"Only after they calmed down did I dare to come out. The floor was covered with slag, garbage, and pieces of clothing!"

"Back then, what I looked forward to most every day was going to school, because only by going to school could I have a few hours where I wouldn't be afraid anymore!"

"But after school, I have to go back to that oppressive, fearful house."

Do you consider that a home?

"I don't know, I'm terrified, I want to run away!"

"I remember the day they divorced was the quietest day of that period. My dad was quietly packing his luggage!"

"My mother held my hand, watching him walk away!"

"It was like he was on a business trip as usual, but it was also a little different!"

Qiao Yingzi's eyes became unfocused, and although she still had a smile on her lips, tears kept streaming down her face!

Fang Yifan held Qiao Yingzi's hand, unconsciously tightening his grip even more.

A thirteen-year-old girl, she has already suffered such a life.

Living in constant fear, as if war were about to break out again at any moment.

Fang Yifan felt a deep pain in his heart and longed to go back to that time to be with her.

But he didn't speak, not wanting to interrupt Yingzi's memories!

"After Dad leaves this time, he will never come back."

“Even if you come back, you won’t be a complete family anymore, so I used to envy you.”

“My mother devoted all her time and energy to me; I was like everything to her.”

"She chose to resign and work in the tutoring industry because the hours are relatively flexible and she can take care of me!"

"I have endless test papers to write and countless texts and formulas to memorize every day!"

"I feel like a little bird trapped in a cage."

"Comfortable, with clothes and food handed to you, but you lose your freedom and can only look at the sky through the cracks."

Suddenly, Qiao Yingzi sniffed a few times, then wiped away her tears, and her smile grew even wider.

"Recently, I've discovered that my life isn't just about the love that binds me."

"I discovered that there was still a light in my dark journey; it illuminated me and warmed me!"

"Just when I thought I was finally about to break free from those strings and stop living like a puppet, he suddenly disappeared."

"Fang Yifan, do you know what that feels like?"

"Collapse, despair..."

Fang Yifan held Qiao Yingzi tightly, feeling a pang of sadness in his heart.

Even just hearing her description is making my heart race.

"I'm sorry, Yingzi. I promise you, I will never joke with you like that again!"

"And I will always be your light, warming you and illuminating your path ahead!"

(Okay?) Qiao Yingzi smiled, and the stars in her eyes seemed to shine even brighter.

She finally spoke her mind, as if she were exhaling a long, pent-up feeling.

I felt so much lighter!

P.S.: I spent a long time writing this chapter and also thought about why I like Yingzi. Her behavior made my heart ache, so I hope to make up for the regrets in the book.

Many people have said that there is only one female lead, and I have been struggling with the question of who the female lead is, but after writing this chapter, everyone should understand.

This chapter helped me find myself again, reminding me of why I wrote this book.

If you don't like it, I can only say I'm sorry, my skills are limited, and I can't write a book that you'll like.

Thank you all for your continued support!

Chapter 285 Yingzi, a Straightforward Old Woman [Please Subscribe]

"Where are the two children? Why haven't they come in yet?"

Song Qian frowned. Wasn't Qiao Yingzi following behind her just now?

After hearing this, Tong Wenjie smiled, nodded, and said to Song Qian!

"Hmm, it's been quite a while already, and it's so cold outside. I'll go out and check!"

After she finished speaking, I saw her stand up and walk straight towards the door.

Fang Yifan just wouldn't let himself have an easy time. He grumbled inwardly as he walked towards the door.

I had just stepped out the door and turned around when I suddenly saw two children hugging each other!

This startled Tong Wenjie; how could someone be so bold as to hug someone like that right outside the door?

I'll go and teach him a lesson myself; I'm so angry about this part-time job.

He had just taken a step forward when he suddenly retreated back into the doorway.

If I walk over there now, it will embarrass the two children. What if they act impulsively and something bad happens? Besides, I promised Fang Yifan that I wouldn't interfere with him.

She suddenly turned her head and glanced at Song Qian sitting on the sofa, wondering if she should tell her.

She was certain that if Song Qian knew, she wouldn't be so calm; she would definitely come after her.

Her eyes darted around, and after a series of internal struggles, she decided that her children and grandchildren had their own destinies, and she should leave it to them.

As long as Fang Yifan doesn't go too far, she'll turn a blind eye!

She sighed, then turned around and walked back towards Song Qian.

Song Qian was drinking water, thinking about how to talk to Tong Wenjie later.

But unexpectedly, she suddenly came back, glanced behind her, and found that there was no one there.

"Wenjie, why are you back? Where are the other two?"

Tong Wenjie's lips stiffened for a moment, then she waved her hand again!

"It's alright, they're chatting and looking at the stars outside. They'll be back soon!"

"Oh!"

Song Qian nodded after hearing this, since her daughter liked astronomy, so it made perfect sense.

At this time, Fang Yifan and Qiao Yingzi were unaware of this matter.

Qiao Yingzi pushed Fang Yifan away with force, then glared at him with annoyance!

"Who wants you to be my lamp? I don't care!"

Her pouting, haughty expression was actually quite endearing to Fang Yifan.

Fang Yifan's lips curled into a smile, and then he bent down and brought his face close to Qiao Yingzi's!

"What, Yingzi, do you want someone else to be your light? But I don't remember you having any male friends?"
