Chapter 299: Air Hug

Her gentle voice wafted past like a light breeze, carrying with it a trace of sadness.

Yu Gangan remembered that when she asked about Fang Zhihan’s parents, he told her that his parents were dead.

At that time, she thought he made up a lie to trick her uncle. But, it seemed, he had told the truth. No wonder she never saw his and Jiang Qi’s parents when she came to their home.

Yu Gangan comforted gently, “I’m sorry for reminding you of something sad.”

Jiang Qi shook her head and smiled. With her hands on her chest, she replied, “It’s fine, my father may not be around, but he will forever be in my heart.”

“You don’t need to worry about Elder Jiang’s condition too much. It’s obvious that his mood has improved over the last two days. From now on, spend more time with him when you’re free. He will gradually open up and understand that his son is gone and he should focus on those that are still living.”

“You should spend time with him too. He really likes you.”

Yu Gangan was quite surprised, “He likes me?”

This was, perhaps, the strangest ‘truth’ she heard all year.

Jiang Qi smiled and replied, “Of course. He’s been asking me about you the last two days. He’s curious about your relationship with my brother and how you are doing at the medical association. It’s the first time I’ve seen my grandfather so curious about a person, yet acting indifferent. My grandfather used to hate talking about anything except business. It feels good now. If my brother…”

She suddenly paused.

She then smiled sadly at Yu Gangan, “My brother doesn’t like me, but after my parents left, all I have is him.”

“Why do you say that? Fang Zhihan’s quite good to you.”

“My brother has always felt that my mother and I caused his mother’s death…it seems, it might be true…” as she spoke, tears began to fall from Jiang Qi’s eyes.

Yu Gangan had the impression that rich young ladies were all impressive and proud. But, Jiang Qi was definitely the soft kind.

Her body was delicate and slender and she was dressed in a lot of clothes on this winter’s day. But, they all looked thin and soft. A girl like this made people want to protect her at first glance.
