Chapter 2047: Chapter 2045: Don’t Say It

So, the three elders of the Qin Family have said what needed to be said, leaving the rest of the time for these two young people. Qin Xuan knows that Old Master Qi will surely call the old man next, and the elders on both sides will soon find out about this matter. He still has to think about how to explain this to the old man.

Then Qin Xuan opened his mouth and said, "Alright, we have said what needed to be said. I believe you already know in your hearts what should be done and what should not be done."

Qi Fangxiu quickly nodded, "Uncle Qin, you’re right. This incident taught me a great lesson. I promise I won’t make similar mistakes from now on."

The promises of young people are just to be heard; what actions they take in the future is what truly matters. Qin Xuan and Shen Manru, who have spent their lives teaching and raising students, know well the importance of moderation.

Especially with current young people, this is even more so.

Qi Fangxiu naturally also knows it’s time for him to take his leave. However, he still has many things he hasn’t said to Qin Xiaoyu. He’s unsure what reason or excuse to use to meet Qin Xiaoyu again, considering she hasn’t acknowledged him beyond saying a few words. He understands, if he were in her shoes, he might not have done as well as Qin Xiaoyu.

But the mistake has already been made; the only thing left now is how to remedy it. There’s no possibility of giving up, and "give up" doesn’t exist in Qi Fangxiu’s dictionary.

It’s time to say goodbye; Qi Fangxiu stands up and courteously bids farewell to the Qin Family.

Qin Xuan and others naturally won’t keep him, but Qi Fangxiu sees that Grandma Qin’s expression is quite gentle, indicating this might be a breakthrough point.

However, Aunt Shen’s face looks quite displeased; he’ll need to compensate for this in the future. As for Uncle Qin, his expression hasn’t changed much, making it hard to see what he’s thinking.

His face is the typical professor’s face, very dignified.

Most importantly, it’s Qin Xiaoyu. Then, at this moment, Grandma Qin, who seems to have a slight fondness for him, speaks with a voice like heavenly music, "Xiao Yu, go see your classmate off."

At this moment, Qi Fangxiu truly wants to shout three times—"Dear grandma."

Of course, externally he must maintain a polite smile.

Otherwise, he’d definitely be criticized by Uncle Qin as being frivolous.

Qin Xiaoyu, though unwilling, indeed has something to say to Qi Fangxiu. But outside, it’s freezing cold, so she needs to put on a down jacket.

The two step out of the living room and into the yard. As night deepens, the street outside the Qin Family’s courtyard is devoid of people strolling; they’ve mostly gone home.

This makes the area seem very desolate but also exceptionally quiet. When the door closes, it simultaneously isolates the sound. Qi Fangxiu doesn’t know how the people inside are evaluating him.

Feeling somewhat anxious, he looks at Qin Xiaoyu and speaks first, "Xiao Yu, I’m sorry, this is all my fault. I didn’t take good care of you and let you suffer, I was wrong. I promise it will never happen again."

Qin Xiaoyu looks coldly at Qi Fangxiu, her voice also somewhat chilly, "Of course this won’t happen again because I won’t be going to your house anymore."

"Xiao Yu, I know you’re angry right now, whatever I say, you might think I’m being insincere. I’m apologizing first; I shouldn’t have hidden my identity at the time, actually when you were looking for me, I wanted to tell you.

But coincidentally my fifth uncle came to find me then, and I heard that kind of news, and this matter had to be postponed. Now I sincerely say sorry to you; when we confirmed our relationship, I should have told you immediately..."

At this point, Qin Xiaoyu didn’t feel awkward. Instead, she said open-mindedly, "About this matter, let’s call it even. After all, I also hid something from you. But you should know when I went to the beef noodle shop to find you and said I had something to tell you, it was exactly about this. I wanted to let you know."

Qi Fangxiu’s heart felt relieved.

He was worried that Xiao Yu would cling to this issue without letting it go. Although he also hid something, Qi Fangxiu never cared about Xiao Yu’s concealment. Maybe that’s how liking someone works, thinking that everything the other person does is right, good, and reasonable. That’s exactly how Qi Fangxiu is feeling right now.

"Thank you, Xiao Yu, you’re really great."

Qi Fangxiu spoke directly.

Qin Xiaoyu glared at him, "Don’t talk nonsense, we have no relationship now."

Qi Fangxiu got anxious, "Xiao Yu, how come there’s no relationship? We just confirmed our romantic relationship a few days ago."

"Well, now I tell you, our relationship..."

"Don’t say it!"

Qi Fangxiu suddenly intercepted Qin Xiaoyu’s words, his face becoming somewhat urgent, his voice also so. Some words, once spoken, are very hurtful.

Then he softened his voice, "Xiao Yu, it’s cold outside, you should go back inside."

And without waiting for Qin Xiaoyu to speak, he continued, "I’ll be in the Capital City these days; there are some things I need to discuss with a few of them."

Qin Xiaoyu was interrupted, feeling unhappy inside, but she also didn’t feel strongly against it. She couldn’t quite explain why, maybe deep down she didn’t really want to say it either.

Thus, Qin Xiaoyu didn’t continue talking, and at this point, Qi Fangxiu also didn’t want to keep speaking with Xiao Yu.

Qi Fangxiu turned and left.

Outside was dark and cold; in weather like this, the wind felt piercing. Moreover, now knowing where the Qin Family is, although he didn’t obtain their forgiveness, it was indeed a good start, much better than not being able to enter the door at all.

Thinking of this, Qi Fangxiu quickened his pace, as if afraid Qin Xiaoyu would soon say something he couldn’t accept, and in the blink of an eye, he was outside the door.

Qi Fangxiu smiled at Qin Xiaoyu and said, "Xiao Yu, close the door, I’m leaving. You should hurry back inside, it’s too cold outside."

He didn’t dare to set a time for the next meeting, but he thought he surely would find a reason and excuse.

At the door, he glanced back at Qin Xiaoyu once more, then quickly walked forward. He hadn’t let his fifth uncle wait for him here. First, he didn’t want to talk to his fifth uncle, and secondly, in case he was driven out right away, he would lose face in front of his fifth uncle.

He needed to preserve the last bit of dignity for himself.

Fortunately, today’s visit was theoretically very smooth, more than he ever imagined. Despite the Qin Family’s elders holding a critical attitude towards this matter, their phrasing was still very gentle.

They didn’t make him feel too embarrassed. And from start to finish, luckily, they didn’t mention his mother.
