162: Little Chatterbox, It’s Fine Now

Little Chatterbox, It’s Fine Now

Qin Shuang saw Mrs. Qin's reaction and instantly understood something. She grabbed Mrs. Qin and said, "When Qin Lu came to visit me, I stuffed a request for help in her hands!"

Mrs. Qin was stunned. "I-I didn't see it. I didn't know…"

Qin Shuang's form teacher said, "She returned the note to me, hahaha!"

Mrs. Qin was stunned when she heard this.

She looked at Qin Shuang in shock. As a mother, she instinctively defended her child. "She definitely didn't do it on purpose. Xiao Shuang, your sister must have thought that you were going to escape again, so she returned the note to your teacher. She definitely couldn't have known the contents of the note…"

At this point, she continued, "Xiao Shuang, it's my fault. It's my fault. I didn't expect that you'd live such a life here. I was wrong!"

She took a step forward and wanted to hug her. "I really know my mistake. I'll make up for it from now on. I'll bring you home, alright?"

Unfortunately, just as she took a step forward, Qin Shuang took a step back.

Qin Shuang looked at her and her tone was filled with despair. "Mom, do you really… love me?"

Mrs. Qin's eyes reddened. "Of course. You're my child. How can I not love you?! If I didn't love you, would I have sent you to school? If I didn't love you, would I care about you like this?"

She wiped her tears and said again, "Xiao Shuang, I know that I did something wrong this time. I know that I have neglected you. I will definitely believe you from now on, alright?"

Qin Shuang sneered. "You will believe me?"

Mrs. Qin nodded. "Yes, I will believe you."

Qin Shuang said, "Then if I say that Qin Lu did it on purpose, will you believe me?"

Mrs. Qin was stunned and retorted, "That's impossible. Why would your sister harm you on purpose? She could only have thought that you're not studying hard, and like me, she must have been deceived by this school…"

When she heard these words, the frustration in Qin Shuang's heart surged. She screamed, almost crazily, "She did it on purpose! She's such a meticulous person. How could she not see that there's something wrong with this school?! Even at this juncture, you're still speaking up for her!"

Mrs. Qin was shocked by her shout. "Xiao Shuang…"

Qin Shuang was too agitated. She covered her ears and started screaming.

She did not want to hear any sound!

If Mrs. Qin wanted to get close, she would only become even crazier. All she could feel was a stifling feeling in her heart, as though she was about to explode!

This week's grievances, fear, and humiliation made her, an 18-year-old girl, unable to take it anymore.

She was only 18 years old!

Mr. Qin shouted, "Xiao Shuang, Xiao Shuang, don't be like this…"

Qin Shuang did not care and continued to go crazy.

Until—

The same skinny figure suddenly approached and hugged her. Xue Xi was so strong that Qin Shuang could not struggle.

Her low and clear voice sounded beside his ear. "Little Chatterbox, it's fine now."

It's fine…

Qin Shuang slowly calmed down.

The girl's arms were very soft. She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt inside. After she took off her school jacket, her exposed arms felt a little cold.

Moreover, she still had a very faint scent of the shower gel on her. All of this seemed to have calmed Qin Shuang down.

She shut her mouth and looked up at Xue Xi…

Then, she suddenly hugged her and shouted softly, "Sister Xi…"

Xue Xi patted her head. The person of few words could only repeat, "Little Chatterbox, it's fine now."

However, this sentence was the most comforting words Qin Shuang had ever heard in her life.

She finally calmed down and started sobbing softly.

Mrs. Qin and Mr. Qin looked at her and did not dare to take a step forward. They slowly shouted, "Xiao Shuang, don't be like this. Shall we bring you home?"

"Don't get near me!" Qin Shuang said. "Mom, Dad, do you guys really love me?"

Qin Shuang had always been a straightforward person since she was young. She rarely spoke such emotional words, but today, she had asked several times in a row, which was enough to prove the uncertainty in her heart.

Did her parents really love her?

Mrs. Qin nodded. "I love you very much!"

Mr. Qin also said, "We love you! We definitely love you!"

Qin Shuang smiled. "If you love me, let me go."

The words stabbed into Mrs. Qin's heart like a needle.

If you love me, let me go.

Mrs. Qin stood there in a daze. She knew that this time, she had completely hurt her daughter's heart. However, she had never known that the cruelest words in the world were actually such words…

She slowly said, "Xiao Shuang…"

Before she could finish speaking, Mr. Qin said, "Okay."

Mrs. Qin was stunned.

Mr. Qin stood in front of Mrs. Qin and said to Qin Shuang, "But we're very worried about your current condition. We can't let you stay alone, so…"

He looked at Xue Xi.

Xue Xi hesitated.

She had wanted to bring the chatterbox home since just now. After all, given Qin Shuang's current condition, Xue Xi would only feel at ease if she had her by her side.

However, the house belonged to Xue Xi's parents.

She said, "I'll call and ask."

She let go of Qin Shuang to get her phone, but just as she let go, Qin Shuang grabbed the corner of her shirt tightly.

Xue Xi sighed. Before she had gone far, she dialed the number at home.

The call soon connected and Ye Li's gentle voice sounded. "Xixi, what's wrong? I heard from Uncle Li that you didn't go to school today. Did something happen? Do you need Mom's help?"

Xue Xi blinked blankly.

Because she grew up in the orphanage, she had been unable to integrate into the Xue family ever since she returned home.

However, after splitting up with the rest, she had been feeling a stronger sense of belonging, but she was still a little unfamiliar with it. However, Ye Li's words made her feel a greater sense of belonging.0

She slowly asked, "Mom, can I bring the chatterbox to our house?"

"Of course you can!" Ye Li said. "This is your house. You can do whatever you want. Do you need me to tidy up a guest room or do you want her to sleep with you?"

Xue Xi suddenly smiled. "Prepare a room. I want her to stay until the end of the college entrance examination."

"Sure."

After hanging up, Xue Xi held Qin Shuang's hand. "Follow me home."

The rest of the school's matters were left to the police.

While Qin Shuang and Xue Xi were on their way home, the former had been feeling uneasy. She asked, "Sister Xi, those photos… definitely won't be left on the computer, and they also won't be uploaded in some cloud, right?"

Xue Xi patted her hand. "You have to trust the police."

Qin Shuang then nodded.

…

The Qin family.

Mr. and Mrs. Qin sat on the sofa for the entire day.

At 6:30 PM, Qin Lu returned home from school. She walked into the room casually and saw her parents' solemn expressions.

She paused and asked, "Mom, Dad, what's wrong?"

Just as she said this, Mrs. Qin suddenly stood up and rushed in front of her. She waved her hand and gave Qin Lu a tight slap. "Pa!"
