Chapter 1261: Chapter 1262: No Need to Apologize

“Forget it, no one in your family is a good person,” Su Xue said sarcastically, “if you want to be friends, go and be friends with Song Zishan! She’s not bad, a good friend indeed.”

“Haha…” Zhou Hengguang couldn’t help but laugh out loud, earning a rolling eye from Su Qing.

Zhou Hengguang wasn’t bothered at all, he gave Su Xue a thumbs up as a sign of his admiration.

It was the first time Su Xue tried to speak her mind, and she found it very satisfying. In a great mood, she responded with a thumbs up, acknowledging his retort toward Song Jinyan.

Su Qing helplessly put her hand to her forehead, what was all this about? She never saw them act so mischievous before.

“Su Xue,” Su Qing called her sister.

“Oh!” Despite her dissatisfaction with Song Jinyan, Su Xue knew she still had to listen to her Second sister. Especially outside, where the sisters had an understanding to always present a united front, no matter the disagreements, which would only be addressed back at home.

They would never argue in front of others, as to not be a spectacle for mockery.

“You should go back now! You’ve already done what you could, we appreciate it, but that’s all there is to it, and we hope to never see you again.”

Su Qing had always tried to stay calm and objective, and she saw things clearly now, things had turned out pretty well. The wrongdoers had paid their dues, their parents were gone, and nothing could change that fact.

The wounds inside weren’t something that could heal quickly.

“Actually, you should learn from your grandfather,” Su Qing showed a complex expression, hard to say if it was sarcasm or admiration, “your grandfather did a great job, decisive although it seemed somewhat cruel, but that’s exactly what we needed.”

Song Jinyan clenched his fists tightly, “What do you mean by that?”

The others also stared intently at Su Qing, not understanding why she would suddenly say such a thing.

Only Zhou Hengguang, whose eyes sparked astonishingly while gazing at Su Qing.

“Denial is the best option for both sides, because all we see in your family, the Song family, is hatred and the guilt of not being able to seek revenge. Do you understand? This feeling is not pleasant, and I’m very unhappy even talking to you right now. Your grandfather must know it too, probably his thoughts are the same as ours.”

Song Jinyan shuddered, his handsome face briefly showing a flicker of sorrow, “I understand, I’m sorry for causing you trouble.”

“No need to apologize, you didn’t do anything wrong, it’s all the issues of the past generation, it has nothing to do with you. On the contrary, we should thank you. Without you, we couldn’t have had this moment of relief today,” Su Qing said sincerely.

“Heh,” Song Jinyan gave a bitter laugh and said nothing more, turning around and leaving with Songshan.

Watching the tall, desolate figure of Song Jinyan walking away, Su Qing didn’t speak, but her eyes were especially cold as she turned and walked away.

Su Xue snorted coldly, discontentedly saying, “Second sister, why did you thank him?”

Su Qing ignored her, and Zhou Hengguang leisurely said, “That wasn’t a thank you, that was sticking a knife in Song Jinyan’s heart. Little one, you should learn from your Second sister what a ‘soft knife’ really is; it shatters hearts.”

After saying that, he even poked Su Xue with his finger.

Su Xue had never been treated like this by anyone. Although their brother-in-law was very kind to them, he always kept a slightly distant distance. He was particularly affectionate with Little sister and rarely spoke to the older ones.

Su Xue hadn’t expected that the brother-in-law’s brother, although not as distant as the brother-in-law, exuded more indifference from his bones. Especially in the car, where he hadn’t said a word the entire ride.

Su Xue noticed even more that the Second sister and Third sister seemed not to like the brother-in-law’s brother.

So Su Xue was surprised that Zhou Hengguang would talk to her like this.

How should I put it! Just now, Zhou Hengguang’s actions and tone were more like those of an older brother lecturing his younger sister.
