452 The Secret About the Past 70 (2/2)
Realizing that he was ignoring her, Xu Youran did not bother continuing to speak to him and began fishing on her own.
”Daddy, I can't seem to catch any fish at all. Seems like I have to come up with a better solution,” said Jin Yiheng.
”What solution?”
Jin Yiheng stood up and took out a piece of paper and a pen from his bag. He then wrote a few words on the piece of paper before showing it to his father.
Jin Qingyan almost burst into laughter after reading the message he had written.
”Dear fishes, Daddy and I are going home soon. Rest assured and enjoy eating the bait in peace.”
”Is this the solution you came up with?”
”Yes, let me try.” Jin Yiheng hooked the piece of paper onto the fishing rod and dipped it into the water slowly.
Needless to say, it obviously wouldn't work.
After fishing for a while, Jin Yiheng pulled his rod out of the water, disappointed by his futile efforts.
”Daddy, let's stop fishing. I'm hungry, I want to go home.”
”Alright.” Jin Qingyan packed the fishing equipment and carried them to the car along with the chair and bucket.
”Daddy, can we keep the fishes you caught in the bathtub? I don't want to eat them. I want to take care of them and watch them grow up.”
”No problem.”
”…”
Xu Youran watched the pair of father and son get into the car.
She continued to stare until Jin Qingyan's car had left.
She then stopped looking.
All of a sudden, she was reminded of her childhood.
Jin Qingyan and his friends used to secretly bring her along on their fishing trips when they were younger.
Jin Qingyan was a year older than she was and would often hold onto her hand. He was afraid that she would fall since she was thin and frail because of how little she was given to eat at the Jin family.
To be honest, Xu Youran was aware that her half-brother had treated her rather well.
He had never once bullied her and would often bring her delicious food every other day.
However, she absolutely detested the entire Jin family.
Gradually, she began to resent him too.
Even until today, flashbacks of her tormenting past would pop up in her mind every time she closed her eyes.
She would be reminded of her mother's death.
Those unforgettable days of suffering were deeply etched in her mind.
She would die with regrets if she did not get the revenge she wanted.
The Jin family was indebted to her and her mother and she was determined to get revenge where it was due. However, if she could endure it for so many years, she could definitely wait a little longer before taking her revenge.
Tears began to roll down Xu Youran's cheeks.
She wiped her tears away and stared at the surface of the water by the river.
All of a sudden, her phone began ringing in her pocket. She whipped her phone out and took a look at the caller display before swiping to answer.
”What is it?”
”Don't you want to know where your mother's grave is?” Mr. Jin asked over the phone.
Of course, Xu Youran wanted to know where it was. However, compared to that, she had a greater desire to cut off all ties with Mr. Jin, who could not bring her any benefits she needed.
