After breaking off the engagement, the little mute stopped pretending

Zhou Zhizhi turned around and left, leaving everyone embarrassed.

"Dad, Zhizhi treats everyone like this except the third child, so don't take it too seriously."

Qin Yue saves his father's reputation.

When I finished speaking, I had a heart attack.

Qin Ming didn't say anything. His father really didn't do a good job, especially towards Zhizhi.

So he felt that he had to make fathers realize their responsibilities as fathers, which was not just to raise them or feed them and then ask them to do what their fathers wanted them to do.

"Dad, as long as you change a little bit and take one step towards Zhizhi, I believe Zhizhi will take the remaining ten steps towards you."

Qin Hanye felt that he had done nothing. He just showed his concern for his sister appropriately when Zhizhi returned to the Qin family, and she protected him in this way.

If the Qin family treated her well, she would naturally take it to heart.

Zhizhi is always cold and distant towards the Qin family, which naturally has something to do with them.

Sometimes you should reflect on yourself and blame others less.

Qin Hanye was silent but as soon as he opened his mouth, Qin Xian had an even worse heart attack.

He looked towards Zhou Zhizhi's room, thought for a moment and went upstairs.

They were quite surprised to see their father going upstairs. It was rare for their father to lower his head and take the initiative to get close to them.

"Father has been changing."

Qin Yue looked at his father's back as he went upstairs, and sighed, "When has he ever listened to us?"

"It's hard to say. I feel that with his personality, he will definitely mess this up again."

Qin Xian was too arrogant, especially towards his own children. He couldn't bring himself to apologize to his children, and even if he did, they might end up quarreling.

Qin Hanye knew his father's character well.

"Well, it's really rare."

Qin Ming responded indifferently.

Qin Xian had already walked to the door of Zhou Zhizhi's room. After hesitating for a moment, he knocked on the door.

Zhou Zhizhi opened the door and saw Qin Xian standing at the door.

Qin Xian read her meaning from her eyes.

"Squeak."

Zhou Zhizhi nodded slightly, indicating that he could hear her.

Ever since she returned to the Qin family, her attitude has been very cold, as if she doesn't care about anything.

Except for the third child, she seemed polite to everyone in this family, but in fact she was very distant and did not treat them like family members.

Qin Xian actually knew that it was because of him that she didn't feel a sense of belonging in this family.

Zhou Zhizhi waited for a long time, but Qin Xian didn't speak.

After thinking for a while, she said: I want to rest.

Qin Xian nodded lightly.

Zhou Zhizhi closed the door of the room tentatively, but Qin Xian had no intention of leaving and kept standing at the door.

After standing for a long time, he raised his hand and knocked on the door again.

Zhou Zhizhi opened the door.

Qin Xian was about to speak, but when he saw Zhou Zhizhi's clear eyes, his heart skipped a beat.

I didn't know what to say for a moment.

The words of apology came to his lips, but he swallowed them back.

I have never apologized to anyone, let alone to my own children.

So he couldn't speak.

Zhou Zhizhi waited for a long time, but he didn't speak, so he prepared to close the door.

Qin Xian reached out and grabbed the door handle, "I have something to tell you."

Zhou Zhizhi raised his head and looked at him.

"fine."

Qin Xian hesitated for a moment and decided to give up.

He couldn't bring himself to apologize.

Oh.

Zhou Zhizhi waited for a long time, and you told her this?

Just as he was about to close the door and go to sleep, Qin Xian finally spoke.

"I didn't fulfill my responsibilities as a father. After you were born, you were taken away by human traffickers. After finally finding you, I was very strict with you and never cared about you."

"I never asked you what you needed or wanted. I just kept giving you what I wanted without asking you if you liked it."

Knowing that Zhizhi needed care, he didn't give her enough care, but instead found fault with her.

He knew he wasn't a very good father.

After his wife passed away, he was worried that he would not be able to take good care of his children, and was even more worried that his children would learn bad things, so he was extremely strict with his children.

"sorry."

Qin Xian felt relieved after he said it. It didn't seem shameful to apologize to his own child.

Zhou Zhizhi was stunned.

sorry?

She seldom heard these three words from other people, and they were extremely precious to her.

She has always kept her distance from Qin Xian.

Qin Xian's "I'm sorry" loosened the wall in Zhou Zhizhi's heart and broke down a little.

"I'm telling you these words today not because I hope you'll forgive me, but because I hope you'll feel better."

Qin Xian knew that Zhou Zhizhi was very lonely because she had been bullied a lot since she was a child. She had no relatives, no friends, and was looked down upon.

After returning to her real home, she still had to endure her family's contempt.

Her living environment has changed, but her experiences are not much different from before.

The oppression from his father, the dislike from his elder brother, the nuisance and jealousy from Qin Yue.

It is hard to imagine how this child can maintain an optimistic and positive attitude in such an environment.

Zhou Zhizhi looked at Qin Xian.

She saw sincerity in his eyes.

She believed that these words were from Qin Xian's heart, and she also knew that her words had hurt Qin Xian.

She said: You have given me the best learning environment, I should be grateful.

I am grateful, but I just can't like Qin Xian from the bottom of my heart.

Treat him like a real father.

Qin Xian felt even worse. He just provided her with a learning environment, and she was satisfied.

The crying child gets candy. Because she is very sensible and he doesn't need to worry about her studies, he doesn't care enough about Zhou Zhizhi.

"Zhizhi, you don't need to be so sensible. I will feel even worse if you do this. At the beginning, I hope you can be as good as other brothers and don't embarrass me."

"But now I hope you can be more willful and not so sensible."

Qin Xian hoped that Zhizhi would be as willful as Qin Qiangwei, because only willful children would get candy.

He saw surprise on Zhou Zhizhi's face, which seemed unbelievable.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Qin Xian paused and said, "Go to bed early. I heard from the boss that you will go to the company with him tomorrow."

Zhou Zhizhi nodded.

Qin Xian still felt somewhat disappointed.

He prepared to go downstairs.

A hand grabbed his wrist and pulled him gently.

The girl's palms were covered with calluses, and Qin Xian felt his wrist being cut by the calluses.

He looked at Zhou Zhizhi in astonishment, "Zhizhi, you..."

Qin Xian saw Zhou Zhizhi smiled, his eyes curved like crescent moons.

Her eyes are very bright and especially clear.

Qin Xian felt that his heart was much cleaner.

Zhou Zhizhi opened his mouth.

Qin Xian figured out what she was going to say from the shape of her mouth.
