Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2363: Chapter 2357: Ye Li’s Frustration

"You didn’t even ask me, so why should I tell you? Don’t you think that’s strange?" Qin Jiale recalled how last time her brother-in-law met her at their school, Ye Li didn’t ask her anything either. Moreover, she assumed her brother-in-law was at the school for some reason. How was she supposed to tell Ye Li in that situation? Was she supposed to say: Ye Li, my brother-in-law came to see me today, look, that’s him. Thinking this way, Qin Jiale shuddered; it would be so embarrassing, what sense would that make? So not saying anything was the right choice.

"I saw it last time. Would saying one more sentence kill you or cost you a piece of flesh?" Ye Li just didn’t get it. Just a simple sentence made him feel like he was in potential danger.

"Both." Qin Jiale didn’t want to do anything so humiliating.

"You really are..." Ye Li was fuming. What kind of person was this? He really wanted to teach her a lesson.

"Where did Uncle Ye go?" Qin Jiale hadn’t seen Ye Xiao. Just now, Ye Li had let Ye Zishu go to find someone, suggesting that Ye Xiao was not at home.

"He’s in the backyard. Do you need something from him?"

"No, I just didn’t see him, so I asked." Ye Li’s question made Qin Jiale pause. Was it not okay for her to simply ask?

"No need to ask about that, he won’t get lost." Ye Li recalled how one day he was bewildered when he saw so many people in the restaurant. He couldn’t have guessed these familiar faces were all from the same family, and under those circumstances, the shock was incredible.

He couldn’t believe it when he got home; such a coincidental thing could happen to his family. That Chu Molin was his eldest brother was an old fact he knew. But that Qin Jiale’s sister was his sister-in-law, he had not realized. Plus, his brother’s daughter was also the daughter of her god-sister. It took him a long time to sort out these relationships, and yet he didn’t comprehend that all these affairs revolved around Qin Jiale.

He almost lost his composure; thankfully, his mental fortitude was strong enough that he didn’t do anything regrettable. Otherwise, he would have deeply regretted it; no matter how many efforts he made, it would have been irreversible.

"How can you, as a son, speak in such a tone? No matter what, he is your father. Why does it sound like you don’t really want to deal with him?" Qin Jiaguang looked up at Ye Li. Is there some misunderstanding between this father and son? It doesn’t feel like they’re father and son at all; they seem to have no emotional bond. It’s really eerie.

"Qin Jiale, if you don’t know about some things, don’t comment. Just know that I will treat you well." Ye Li stared steadily at Qin Jiale. His relationship with the old man had always been like that, and now it couldn’t just go back to where nothing happened.

Although some things can be put behind, the scars left in the heart can’t be erased. It’s not easy to forget. When he came back this time, he could feel the old man wanted to have a good talk, but he didn’t know how to communicate effectively. So for the past two days, he hadn’t said much to the old man and had been avoiding him. The old man didn’t know how to deal with him either. So their relationship was neither bad nor good, but he didn’t know how to talk to Qin Jiale about family matters.

"That’s your family matter; I didn’t want to know. I just feel like you’re not happy, and it makes my heart uncomfortable, so I asked." Qin Jiale just didn’t want to see him like this. It always seemed particularly fake, which made people feel sad.
