Chapter 1245: Chapter 1246: Orphaned Like You
"Since she wants to leave, why are you all worried about her?"
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Yanyan was furious, "What kind of talk is that? Her parents are both dead, and her inheritance has been taken by her uncle through trickery. She has no place to go!"
Zhuang Yanyan knows that her only parents are gone, and the only relative she has is that uncle.
But after her parents’ accident, not only did that uncle not take care of her, he even took all the family wealth after her parents’ death, leaving Jinglei with nowhere to live.
And with her just graduating and having no job, where can she go?
She might not even have a place to stay...
Her words also made Qin Feimo pause his eating, reminded that Feng Jinglei came to the Commander Residence because her parents had died.
From his evasive attitude earlier, Qin Guozhong also sensed that he must have said something to Jinglei, causing her to leave suddenly. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that she left right after he returned without a word?
"Feimo." Looking at his grandson, Qin Guozhong spoke earnestly, "Jinglei, like you, has lost her parents. While you still have me and your grandmother, Jinglei has no one. Where would you have her go?"
Zhuang Yanyan was so anxious that she was in tears.
Qin Feimo hung his head low, after Qin Guozhong’s words, suddenly the porridge in his bowl became quite unappetizing.
But soon, he ignored that bit of concern and continued to eat the porridge, "Don’t you give her money regularly every month? With money, why be afraid of having nowhere to live."
The porridge went down again, yet it felt somewhat hard to swallow.
Staring at the bowl of porridge, even though the first bite was fine, why did it become so unpalatable all of a sudden? It even made him a bit irritable!
Glancing at his grandson, Qin Guozhong sighed again, "I do give her money regularly, but since I’m afraid she won’t accept it, I directly transfer it to her card every month! But as far as I know, she only withdrew two thousand yuan upon entering college, and hasn’t touched a dime since."
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Yanyan grew even more worried, suddenly thought of something, and rushed out of the dining hall.
Qin Guozhong didn’t know what she was doing, turned his head, glanced at his grandson again, and let out a heavy sigh, "I don’t care if you believe it or not, Ma Qianqian’s death had nothing to do with Jinglei, it was I who brought her to find Ma Qianqian!"
Though Ma Qianqian’s death was more than half a month ago, each mention still unsettled Qin Feimo.
With Qin Guozhong’s reminder, the porridge became even more tasteless and hard to swallow.
At this moment, Zhuang Yanyan rushed back with urgency in her eyes, holding something in her hand.
"She didn’t take it. This is the card we gave her back then, she didn’t take it at all..." Zhuang Yanyan was anxious to the point of tears, "I checked, she didn’t take a single thing we bought for her over the past three years, not even her clothes, only her old ones..."
Such words would make anyone who heard them feel more heartbroken.
"Tell me, with no money, and no family or friends, where would she possibly go?" Zhuang Yanyan was at a loss in her anxiety, and in such panic, the mind can’t help but wander.
Suddenly seeming to think of something, she looked up at Qin Guozhong with a face full of bewilderment, "Old man, do you think she might run into bad people as soon as she leaves? What if she ends up on the street or gets into a black taxi..."
