Chapter 292: Jian Yunnao Apologizes
However, Jian Yunmo had regained his composure again. Compared to before, his gentle face was a little more solemn.
He looked at Jian Yuncheng and Jian Yunnao with a deep sadness in his gaze:
“Brother, it’s not about who I beat up or hit. That doesn’t matter. That doesn’t change anything. It won’t change the fact that Yiling had gotten hurt.”
Jian Yunmo’s heart ached for Jian Yiling. No one had trusted her.
However, even though his heart ached, the things that he could do for her were still incredibly limited.
Although he could beat up Jian Yunnao and reprimand Jian Yuncheng, nothing could change what had already happened.
What he needed to do was not to vent his own emotions, but to make his sister feel better.
However, he himself was in such a state that he was afraid he would hurt her if he got too close.
“I understand,” Jian Yuncheng replied. He understood what his brother meant.
Jian Yunnao turned around to face Jian Yunmo and vowed, “Brother, I will make up for my mistake. It’s fine if Yiling gets angry… It’s fine if she loses her temper with me… I… I deserve it…”
Once upon a time, Jian Yiling had also suffered his anger in the same way.
Back then, they had all thought that Jian Yiling deserved it.
Jian Yunmo didn’t reply. His reply didn’t matter.
The three brothers got up and were about to leave the room. This was when Jian Yiling came out of the hot spring.
She had changed into the kimono that Grandma Jian had prepared for her in advance.
It was a purple kimono with flowers embroidered on it. Her long, freshly washed hair fell to her waist.
Her small pale feet were exposed underneath the kimono.
As of now, only Jian Shuxing, Wen Nuan, and the three brothers were in the room.
The six members of the Jian Shuxing family were finally reunited after a long time.
Wen Nuan stepped forward to gently hug Jian Yiling in her arms:
“Yiling, we’re late.”
There was a strong sense of apology in her voice. However, the apology wasn’t because they were ‘late’ today.
“Mhmm,” Jian Yiling replied in a small voice.
Jian Yiling’s reaction to Wen Nuan’s hug was still rather stiff.
However, Jian Yiling didn’t push Wen Nuan away. Instead, she accepted the unfamiliar touch and the warmth of Wen Nuan’s body.
“You look so good in this outfit today. Our little girl is growing up.”
“Grandma picked it,” Jian Yiling replied. This was her first time wearing a kimono.
At that moment, Jian Yunnao came up to Jian Yiling’s side.
He said to Jian Yiling the words that he hadn’t had a chance to say in days. He had to say it before the others returned to the room.
“Yiling… I’m sorry… I’m sorry that I misunderstood you… I’m sorry that I hurt you…”
As Jian Yunnao said these words, he felt incredibly nervous and even scared.
“You don’t have to apologize to me. Take care of your hand. Don’t hurt your family.”
Jian Yiling’s gaze towards Jian Yunnao was calm as the surface of the lake.
Because it was so calm, it made the hearts of the others in the room feel pained.
In fact, because of the previous events, the rest of them had predicted that Jian Yiling would react this way when faced with Jian Yunnao’s apology.
However, it still hurt when they heard the words. It was a painful sting to their hearts.
Five people in the room all looked at Jian Yiling in silence.
This was not a situation that Jian Yiling felt comfortable in. Out of the five people, Jian Yiling’s eyes fell on Jian Yunmo.
When Jian Yunmo saw the discomfort in his sister’s eyes, he stepped forward and said softly to Jian Yiling, “Let’s go and eat. Grandma and Grandpa are waiting for us.”
Jian Yiling nodded to this.
And thus, Jian Yunmo brought Jian Yiling out of the room. He had saved her from an awkward situation.
