Chapter 21: Xu Xu Suffers Abuse
go" 。“ Qin Jingwen’s voice was soft, resisting weakly with no deterrence at all. 。The air conditioner temperature is just right, even if it's hot, it's a warm feeling. 。If you're feeling overheated,...Tang Dani left after dinner, while Qin Jingwen was still thinking about how to find the man who was injured in the accident. After compensating him, she could finally put the whole thing behind her.
"Mommy, can you call Uncle I want to know how Brother Xuanxuan is doing."
Ban Yue had been thinking about Qiao Zi Xuan's matter all the time.
"Oh, Mommy, I'll just make a call."
Qin Jingwen quickly picked up the phone and called Qiao Shunchen.
"What's up"
Qiao Shunchen's unchanging cold voice made Qin Jingwen feel a chill.
"Where is Xuxu"
Qin Jingwen didn't want to have too much interaction with Qiao Shunchen, always fearing that he would overthink things.
In his own room, there was a machine in his room...
Qiao Shunchen told Qin Jingwen the phone number of Qiao Zixuan's room and then hung up.
Qin Jingwen dialed Xuanxuan's number according to the one Qiao Shunchen gave her, and the phone was picked up immediately.
"Hey."
Joe Hsu's voice was noticeably low.
"Xuanxuan, I'm Aunt Wenwen. Heard from Ban Yue that you're sick..."
Qin Jingwen wanted to ask him about his illness, but she heard Qiao Zixuan crying.
"Xuan Xuan, what's wrong Why are you crying Where does it hurt"
Qin Jingwen asked eagerly.
"Auntie, I miss you and the half moon. Can I go to your house now"
Joe Hsu was sobbing quietly, his voice betraying that he was struggling to hold back his emotions.
"Xuan Xuan, where are you now At Grandpa's house or Daddy's"
Qin Jingwen was worried and anxious. She didn't know why her child was crying so sadly and feeling so oppressed. Was she wronged or really sick
"Auntie, I'm at Dad's house. Can you talk to Dad and let me come to your place"
Xu Xu was begging, his cries and pleas echoing through the phone to Qin Jingwen's ears, piercing her very bones.
"Xuan Xuan, don't cry. Aunt will call your daddy right now."
Qin Jingwen quickly hung up the phone and called Qiao Shunchen again.
"What's up"
Still icy and cold.
"You..."
Qin Jingwen glared at him, filled with anger. She wanted to scream and make this man wake up.
A man who has status and success can act superior and cold towards his employees to establish his authority. But couldn't he be a little warmer towards his own son Couldn't he let his child feel paternal love
Qin Jing endured, saying nothing, afraid that she wouldn't be able to bargain for a chance to see Xuan Xuan.
"Could Xuxu come to my house for a sleepover I miss him so much."
"Now" Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Joe looked at the time, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
"Yes, right now. If you're not free, I can pick him up."
Qin Jingwen spoke in a consultative tone.
"No, it's too late."
Qiao Shunchen directly refused, it was late and he was afraid that Qiao Zixuan's comfort couldn't be guaranteed.
"Uncle, just let Xuxu come to my house, I miss my brother so much."
Hearing Qiao Shunchen's refusal, Ban Yue quickly took over Mommy's phone and continued to plead.
"Half a month..."
"Uncle, you tell us the address, and Mommy and I will drive to pick up big brother."
After half a month of not giving Qiao Shunchen a chance to refuse, she directly interrupted Qiao Shunchen.
"Uncle, please, I beg you. Tomorrow morning we can still go to school together."
Ban Yue pleaded, her sweet voice impossible for Qiao Shunchen to refuse.
Forty minutes later, Qiao Zixuan was brought to Qin Jingwen's house by the butler.
"Auntie…"
Qiao Zixuan entered the room and without saying a word, he rushed into Qin Jingwen's arms and burst into tears. Qin Jingwen was heartbroken by his cries.
"Xuanxuan, don't cry. Tell Auntie what's wrong."
Qin Jingwen crouched down and picked up Qiao Zixuan, letting him cry freely on her shoulder.
"Auntie, I didn't go to school because I was sick. Mommy beat me."
In Qin Jingwen's embrace, Qiao Zixuan felt warmth and cried even harder. He couldn't help but tell her why he didn't go to school.
"What"
Qin Jingwen was instantly furious.
She put Qiao Zixuan down and seriously asked about the reason for the incident.
"What's going on"
"Mommy hit me, I have wounds on my body. I'm afraid the kindergarten teacher will see them and won't let me go to school."
As he spoke, Xuanxuan pulled down his pants, revealing a bruise on his thigh.
When Qin Jingwen saw the injuries on the child, her heart clenched suddenly.
"How could you do this, how could you beat the child like this, is this still a mother"
Qin Jingwen's heart-wrenching tears streamed down her face.
"Mommy always hits me and won't let me tell Daddy. When Daddy is away on business, she even locks me in the warehouse. No one at home knows I get beaten. I don't want to see Mommy anymore. Auntie, I'm scared..."
Jiāo Zǐxuān's small body was trembling from fear. It was evident how terrified he must have been when he was beaten and imprisoned.
"Huanhuan, don't cry, Auntie will definitely help you."
Qin Jingwen tightly hugged Qiao Zixuan in her arms, giving him warmth.
This is why Qiao Zixuan doesn't like Mommy, this is why he cried and insisted on coming here.
Does Qiao Shunchen truly not know, or does he know but choose to indulge
Qin Jingwen absolutely had to find Qiao Shunchen and have a serious talk. She couldn't let Xinxing go through this again.
After Qin Jingwen soothed the child, she took him and Ban Yue to bed. The two little ones lay in bed, and Qin Jingwen took medicine to apply to Xuanxuan.
"Auntie, don't tell Daddy. If you tell Daddy, Mommy will beat me even worse. Daddy is often not at home and can't protect me. He is also very busy and tired, I don't want to worry him."
Qiao Zixuan's words brought Qin Jingwen to tears.
She couldn't utter a word, burying her head in Xuanxuan's small embrace and letting tears flow silently.
Even such a young child knows to think of his father, but his father is completely oblivious to everything about him and treats the child with such severity and coldness.
Qin Jingwen couldn't help but want to slap him awake. As a father, he actually let his child bear these things that he shouldn't have to endure.
Qin Jingwen took half a day to calm down before she continued to apply medicine to Qiao Zixuan.
After finishing examining Qin Jingwen's legs, she began to check other areas. Suddenly, her attention was drawn to Qiao Zixuan's birthmark on his arm. She held her breath instantly.
Qin Jingwen widened her eyes and looked again.
There is a jade-shaped birthmark on Qiao Zixuan's left forearm, in the same position as a half moon. One is on his right arm and the other on his left.
Qin Jingwen only felt a blank in her mind, standing there in a daze.
"Mommy, what are you looking at Time to put on your medicine and go to sleep."
The half moon was a reminder to Qin Jingwen.
"Oh, no, you go to sleep first."
Qin Jingwen was still stunned, but she couldn't let the child see anything.
Qin Jingwen let the child sleep first, leaving a dim desk lamp on, then went out.
Standing by the window in the living room, looking at the star-studded sky, Qin Jing felt a deep pang of heartache as she thought about Qiao Zixuan's birthmark on his little arm.
How could Joe Hsu have such a birthmark Is it just a coincidence Is his mother really his biological mother If so, why would she abuse her own child
Qin Jingwen spent the entire night without sleep.
After sending the two children to kindergarten the next day, Qin Jingwen went straight to the CEO's office upon arriving at the company.
"Mr. Joe, Xuanxuan will stay with me for two days. You can rest assured that the child will be absolutely safe, and I will never use the child to seduce you."
Qin Jingwen's tone was clearly filled with dissatisfaction and resentment. She wanted to control herself, but it was really difficult. If she hadn't promised Xuanxuan not to tell Qiao Shunchen, she might have already exploded.
"You're not asking for my opinion, you're telling me your decision. Qin Jingwen, Xuan Xuan is my child, shouldn't you have told me beforehand"
Qiao Shunchen had met countless people, how could he not see the displeasure in Qin Jing's gentle voice.
"Also, I heard from Xuanxuan that he often stays at Grandpa's place. In the future, when you are on a business trip and not at home, just leave him with me, I will take good care of him."
Qin Jingwen ignored Qiao Shunchen's question. She became more and more out of control with her emotions.
Joe Shunchen remained silent, but a visible frost appeared in his eyes.
He stood up, walked around the desk, and took two steps down the stairs. He approached Qin Jingwen's side coldly, with a sudden burst of force, he controlled her slender waist, forcing the two of them to press their chests together.
"You..."
Qin Jingwen panted heavily, she really wanted to shout and ask him why he treated Xuanxuan like that, but for Xuanxuan's sake, she swallowed her words.
"This is your punishment for provoking me. Qin Jingwen, Xuanxuan is my son, and where he lives and how he lives is up to me. You are nothing and have no right to interfere with him. And you remember this, he has a mommy, and it's impossible for you to be his mommy."
Joe Shunchen spoke coldly, with a hint of sarcasm. At close range, his breath was icy cold.
"If I insist on being her mommy"
Qin Jingwen was getting increasingly agitated, and she spoke rashly, provoking Qiao Shunchen. If it were possible, she wanted to care for Xuxu better than anyone else. If it were possible, she'd rather be Xuxu's mommy.
"Dreaming, you a fraudster, what qualifications do you have to be Xuxu's mommy"
Joe Shunchen was thoroughly enraged, his dangerous eyes, like a lion seeing its prey, revealed the message of killing.
Qin Jingwen was stunned for a moment. This breath of air was exactly like Chu Yang from four years ago, and the word "cheater" also pierced Qin Jingwen's heart.
It seems Qiao Shunchen investigated everything about her and firmly believes she is a con artist.
"Yes, I'm a fraud. Everyone says I am, and I don't deny it. But Qiao Shunchen, I want to ask you, what have I defrauded you of Feelings, money, or even your person"
Qin Jingwen retorted loudly, her chest heaving violently from anger. She was fearless in the face of Qiao Shunchen's imposing aura, glaring at him angrily, yet Qiao Shunchen saw the hurt in her eyes.
"I won't be fooled by you, you're the one who's going to lose out."
Qiao Shunchen said yin fiercely, without giving Qin Jingwen any chance to react, he kissed Qin Jingwen directly.
He held Qin Jingwen tightly in his arms, one hand clutching her waist and the other gripping the back of her head. With such a firm hold, no matter how Qin Jingwen struggled, she couldn't break the distance between them.
"Oh..."
Qin Jingwen remained silent, unwittingly giving Qiao Shunchen the opportunity to delve even deeper.
Qin Jingwen also seized the opportunity this time and bit directly down.
"Hmm..."
Qiao Shunchen let out a grunt, then released Qin Jingwen. 。 Okay, I'll drink with you. 。“ Saying that, Qiao Shunchen drank another cup in one go. 。Just like that, cup after cup, Qiao Shunchen finally got himself drunk. 。Qin Jingwen helped the drunk Qi...
