Chapter 1159: The Need for Truth

he let her take a picture." 。After leaving Qin Jingwen's office, Yang Jie went straight to the restroom. 。She impatiently sent a picture of Qin Jingwen's necklace to their group chat while sitting on...Qiao Liang led Qin Lan to the living room and sat down. He needed to have a good talk with Qin Lan before facing his father. 。"Qin Lan, maybe my father's starting point is different from ours." 。His way of handling things is different from ours. 。He put Qiao's interests above all else, and he would sacrifice anyone, including me and Shunchen, as long as Qiao benefited. 。Joe began speaking in a serious tone. 。To make Qin Lan give up her thoughts, she could only start from the root. 。She was afraid her father would follow his arrangements, more so because she didn't understand his motives. 。Don't be afraid of him, he's not the same as he was twenty years ago. He doesn't control everything anymore; he's just an old man. 。"You need to have your own ideas, and you need to believe that things aren't as complicated as they seem." 。The most important thing is that you have to believe in me, and trust me. 。" Qiao Liang's earnest persuasion was intended to make Qin Lan unconditionally trust him and hand over this matter to her without worry. " 。However, Qin Lan had her own thoughts. No matter what happened on Qiao De Xiang's side, she would always be a sinner. 。“I was wrong. I have to consider what your father said.” 。Things started because of me, and I have no defense. 。"For everything I've done, I cooperated with your father, and I am willing to take responsibility. All of this is to atone for myself." 。Only by doing this, only by making your family more comfortable, can my guilt lessen. 。" Qin Lan had been walking through guilt for over twenty years. Rather than being tormented by such pain, it would be better to let the Qiao family have a moment of clarity. " 。If there were no Qin Jing's warmth and Qiao Shunchen's love, if Jingyi had already grown up, she could stand in front of Qiao Yu and Qiao Shunchen at this moment, letting them deal with her. 。They could throw stones or curse at her, and she felt it was a kind of release, a kind of liberation. 。But Qin Jingyi was not yet completely independent, but Qin Jingwen and Qiao Shunchen unexpectedly developed feelings for each other, and they also had two children. 。All of this made Qin Lan afraid to stand before Qiao Shunchen. 。"Qin Lan, you can believe everything I say unconditionally." 。I told you her death has nothing to do with you, it was her own doing. 。Don't let her death become a shackle that binds you, don't take on all the responsibility yourself. 。" Qiao Liang was very impatient and didn't know how to speak, so Qin Lan would give up this idea. " 。He really wanted to tell the truth about what happened and give Qin Lan a fair deal. 。But if he said it now, Qin Lan would hate him, blame him, and immediately leave him. 。Qiao Liang also found it difficult. On one hand, he felt sorry for Qin Lan, but on the other hand, he was worried about the feelings of many people. 。He was tortured to the brink of collapse. 。"You always say that, but what about the facts" 。You said it wasn't because of me, then why would she choose to die 。

Why would you choose to die during that time period It's not because of me.

You said it wasn't my fault, but Qiao Yu and Shun Chen have hated me for over twenty years, and I've blamed myself for over twenty years. Who should bear this responsibility 。Qin Lan pressed Qiao Liang, saying such things was not the first time Qiao Liang had said it. 。She also wants to believe that Qiao Shunchen's mother's death wasn't because of her, but what about the evidence What about the facts 。Who would believe a fact that is unconvincing Qiao Yu or Qiao Shunchen 。If she believed it, if she shirked her responsibility, how would Qiao Yu and Qiao Shunchen view her How would they view Qin Jingwen and Qin Jinyi 。"Don't ask for reasons, there are some things I can't say." 。Just trust me, and don't blame yourself. 。I will take care of things with Qiao Yu and Shun Chen. 。“ Joe still didn't reveal the truth. He couldn't, he dared not, because too many people were involved. 。“Don't ask for the reason Even I don't know the reason, do I If, as you say, I have no responsibility at all, then I am innocent. Why don't I have the right to know the truth” Qin Lan continued to press him. 。Seeing Qiao Liang's conflicted and helpless expression, she wanted to believe what he said. 。She only needs the truth to fully believe and confirm that she is not the culprit. 。"Are you hiding something from me Don't you trust me"At this moment, Qin Lan suddenly remembered the phone call between Qiao Liang and Qiao Yu. 。He was clearly deliberately concealing something, and the object of his concealment was her. 。"No, no, it's not like that" 。"Qin Lan, I admit I have something hidden from you, but I can't say what it is " 。All I can tell you is that this has nothing to do with you, you did nothing wrong. 。Qiao Liang had to admit it, otherwise Qin Lan would overthink things, and matters would become more complicated. 。"Qin Lan, let's all calm down and think this through." 。You must stand on the same path as me, only then can we solve the problem. 。"The concealment of past events is unfair to Qin Lan and a major obstacle to resolving the issue. 。But Qiao Liang still hoped to conceal the past while also resolving things well. 。Maybe one day he would tell Qin Lan about the past, but definitely not now. 。"Sigh…"Qin Lan sighed, his heart filled with helplessness towards everything. 。Though she was very curious about what Qiao Liang had been hiding from her, and who should bear the burden of these twenty years. 。But, looking at Qiao Liang's attitude, it seems like you wouldn't be able to ask him anything. 。What about your father's side, what should I do if she comes looking for meQin Lan didn't know what to do next, he didn't know if blindly trusting Qiao Liang was right or wrong. 。"As long as you believe in me, and as long as you give me all the matters to handle, I will take care of things on my father's side." 。Now Qiao Liang still needs Qin Lan's affirmation, he needs her to give him a firm belief. 。Qin Lan fell silent, pondering for a moment. 。Okay, I believe you 。No matter what happens in the future, I'll share it with you and we'll solve it together. 。No matter how you choose to handle past matters, I will cooperate fully and never leave without authorization. 。Qin Lan finally made up her mind and chose to believe Qiao Liang unconditionally. 。But this doesn't mean her guilt disappeared, nor does it mean she wasn't worried about it. 。Joe Liang finally let out a breath, once again embracing Qin Lan. 。With Qin Lan's support and cooperation, he would have no worries and would properly solve this matter. 。This time, Qiao Shunchen's trip abroad was much better than the last. Although he didn't say goodbye to Qin Jingwen when he left, he took the initiative to contact her after arriving there. 。At this very moment, Qin Jingwen is on the phone with Qiao Shunchen in her own room. 。It's not so much a conversation as it is Qiao Shunchen speaking and Qin Jingwen listening. 。Qin Jingwen had already gotten used to Qiao Shunchen disappearing whenever he went abroad. This time, when he called her, she didn't know what to say. 。"Wenwen, how's it going over there Have things been taken care of"Joe Shunchen briefly told about his situation and then began to inquire about Qin Jingwen's side. 。"No, trying to figure it out" 。This is the longest sentence Qin Jingwen has uttered from the start of the phone call to now. 。Before this, I was just humoring him with meaningless sounds and showing no interest in what Joe Shuntchen had to say. 。 “I'll go back and help you, I can be back tomorrow.” 。Joe Shunchen volunteered, but Qin Jingwen wasn't necessarily receptive. 。"No, I'll do it myself." 。If you manage your own affairs well, you can... 。Qin Jingwen refused, she didn't need Qiao Shunchen's help. 。Even though Ye Wen's company only has Joe Shunchen here as a shortcut, she still said she chose to do it herself. 。Things are a bit complicated, and Qiao Bin is involved. Since Qin Jingwen is involved, it's even more inadvisable to bring up Qiao Shunchen's experience. 。They two are quite good as they are now, doing their own things and not interfering with each other, and they can still give the children a complete family. 。"My affairs and yours don't conflict, I..." "No need really, if I encounter something difficult to solve, I will ask you for help." 。Qin Jingwen interrupted Qiao Shunchen's words, using the phrase she didn't know how many times to prevaricate Qiao Shunchen. 。From the start to now, she has countless times thought of asking Qiao Shunchen for help, countless times thought of telling Qiao Shunchen about her family matters 。Yet sadly, it wasn't a matter of unsuitable opportunities; rather, I was simply forgotten by Qiao Shunchen. 。It's not that she didn't want to say it, but Qiao Shunchen didn't need to know. 。Since she had missed it so many times and forgotten, she no longer felt the urge to say anything. 。"Okay, if you run into any trouble, be sure to let me know." 。Joe Shunchen didn't force Qin Jingwen, knowing that she still had complaints against him. 。"By the way, I want to withdraw my and Jingyi's bodyguards. I feel uncomfortable, always like being followed." 。“Qin Jingwen had wanted to tell Qiao Shunchen about this for a long time, and she had also talked to Qin Jingyi about it.” 。They are not used to having someone always protecting them. 。"The danger hasn't been lifted, let's hold on for a while longer." 。" Qiao Shunchen is still very cautious, after all, the death of Song Wei has not been investigated clearly. 。"No need, it's not dangerous " 。Let's just withdraw the bodyguard. 。“

Qin Jingwen also insisted, but her attitude was indifferent and overly polite. >>> 。There is no more of that mood of being cute and coquettish with Qiao Shunchen. 。"Since you insist, I'll go along with you." 。I will tell Sun Xu to make arrangements in a while. 。Joe Shunchen always couldn't refuse Qin Jingwen's requests, no matter what aspect his attitude didn't have the same persistence as Qin Jingwen. 。If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. I still have work to do today. 。"Qin Jingwen had said everything she wanted to say, and even listened patiently to things she didn't want to hear. There seemed to be nothing left to talk about, so she found an excuse to hang up the phone." 。The phone was tossed aside carelessly, and he threw himself onto the bed. 。She thought about her current relationship with Qiao Shunchen, it was very ironic and helpless. 。It's even more liberating than being just a mistress. 。If she were the third party in a relationship, she would be a meek and submissive one, a well-behaved and obedient one, who would never make unreasonable demands. 。If a man wants to come, he comes. If he wants to leave, he leaves. This way, she will feel more at ease. 。Now, the identity of a girlfriend seems very awkward. As for being a wife, no one admits to it. 。At best, they're just fellow residents. 。The identity of a person who lives with someone else seems even more pathetic than that of a mistress. 。I thought and thought, making myself feel worse and worse. My status is getting lower and lower. 。How could the love she longed for be like this Why is it so different from others, so far removed from what she imagined 。After discussing with Qin Lan, Qiao Liang called Qiao Dexiang and didn't say anything, just asked him to come over. 。"Sun's advisor doesn't have a private plane, I'll find Sun Xu, he will arrange for you and Liu the Butler to come over." 。"How about tomorrow morning Come over tomorrow morning." 。 Qiao Liang had made all the arrangements. The reason he brought his father here was to prevent Qin Lan from being exposed so soon. 。didn't dare to confirm if this woman was the Song Yien who was once famous according to other people's mouths. 。Song Yiren was a little confused when she saw Ye Wen, because she didn't know this pers...
