Han Xi nodded.

Walk over and sit down next to Lin Jing.

There happened to be another wine glass on Lin Jing's table.

Seeing Han Xi staring at the wine glass in confusion, she smiled and said, "Uncle Han asked someone to prepare an extra wine glass for me. He said that someone might drink with me later. I didn't expect that his mouth would be blessed."

Han Xi smiled. She knew that this was her grandfather's habit as a housekeeper over the years. He was just used to doing things in a thoughtful manner.

He probably couldn't have imagined that the person drinking with Lin Jing was his own granddaughter.

Lin Jing poured her some red wine and said, "Drink some. Drinking some red wine before going to bed can actually help you sleep."

"Thank you, aunt!"

"Silly child, you don't have to be polite to me." Lin Jing put the wine glass back on the table. "Speaking of which, I should apologize to you. I have always looked at you with tinted glasses."

She paused, then turned back and looked through the French window behind her at Gu Ying who was watching the Spring Festival Gala with Qin Feng, "And Gu Ying."

"Aunt......"

"No need to talk about it anymore. In the past, I was trapped in a web I had woven myself, and couldn't see the truth clearly." She looked up at the bright moon in the sky. "Now I have figured it out. It's like I have finally lifted the veil and see the truth of many things."

She smiled self-deprecatingly, "You know what? I have always loved someone so deeply that I have lost my way. I have always wanted to hold on to that man who has another woman in his heart. In the end, I became crazy and did stupid things one after another, hurting my own children..."

As she spoke, she drank the red wine in her hand in one gulp, her eyes slightly wet, and turned to look at Han Xi, "Do you think I am hopelessly stupid?"

Han Xi stared at Lin Jing in a daze, not knowing how to comfort this woman who had been strong and proud for most of her life.

"Auntie, that's not the case..."

Unfortunately, Lin Jing was like a poor wretch who had been holding his feelings in for a long time and finally found someone to vent to, feeling frustrated yet carefree.

She poured herself another glass of wine, raised her slightly red eyes, and looked at Han Xi, "Xiao Xi, you are so pretty, prettier than those girls that I used to think were very good. I always thought that girls from aristocratic families or from powerful families were more conscious, capable, and smart than children from ordinary families, and were more than qualified to be my own children..."

She suddenly paused, the smile on her face faded, her eyes looked off into the distance, her thoughts seemed to be pulled away, "Just like me, I thought I was very good, my family was rich, I was good-looking, and I had a good education, so I was a good match for him, that was enough!"

She added, "She is so many times better than the girl in his heart, but his heart is just not with me, no matter how hard I try, it's useless."

Han Xi looked at Lin Jing, who was slowly murmuring, and she said nothing. She knew that Lin Jing needed to vent tonight and needed someone to listen to her suffering.

She sat gently and quietly.

Accompanying Lin Jing with pity.

She knew, she had always known, that Lin Jing had been deceiving herself and living in the lies she had woven in her previous life, and had been in pain all her life.

In this life, maybe she will be more open-minded...

Sure enough, in her murmurs, Han Xi heard her last sigh, which was heavy and tired.

"I'm tired and don't want to be around him anymore..."

Slowly, Lin Jing got drunk and fell asleep leaning on the table.

Han Xi began to understand why she had always been so opposed to her and Qin Mingzhi, and even to Gu Ying and Qin Huaizhi being together.

She and Gu Ying are like the woman who has always lived in Qin Zhanhui's heart.

A girl from an ordinary family with no family background, no money, and no power, defeated all the proud and conceited girls from wealthy families like Lin Jing and won the hearts of the men they dreamed of.

Therefore, she was unwilling to accept the fact that even her own children would be the same, and she looked at the women around her two children with inherent prejudice.

Like Jiang Yuxin, just like she was back then.

So at the beginning, she looked at Jiang Yuxin through her own filter, thinking that she was more suitable for Qin Mingzhi than anyone else, so she tried her best to bring the two together.

In the end, because of Qin Zhanhui, she was more inclined to Jiang Yuxin and was always very repulsive to Qin Mingzhi's beloved Han Xi.

When he finally came to his senses, Jiang Yuxin's disguise was exposed, and he discovered that the girl he had always liked was not as good as him.

She came to her senses.

I finally realized that I was blinded by one thing and almost harmed my own child.

I finally see myself clearly and the cage that has been trapping me.

Han Xi didn't know how Lin Jing's life would end in this life, but it would be better than the previous one.

At this time, Gu Ying came out and sent Lin Jing back to the room with Han Xi.

It was the New Year, and only a few servants were left on duty at home. The others had gone home for the holidays, so the task of taking care of Lin Jing fell solely on Gu Ying.

After all, Han Xi hasn't married yet, so she's not officially a member of the Qin family.

After Gu Ying wiped Lin Jing's face with a towel, she saw Han Xi was still in the room.

She smiled knowingly, "Actually, Mom is a very nice person. I heard from her that she is a very proud person and very outstanding. If she hadn't fallen in love with Dad, she might have stayed in Lin's to manage it. My uncle said that Mom has great potential in business."

Mrs. Shang Yan?

That’s right, the master’s wife is Gu Ying’s adoptive mother, and she is also the white moonlight that Qin Zhanhui can never let go of.

As young people, they had no say in the grievances and hatreds of the previous generation. Han Xi and Gu Ying looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Mom, I'm all you need. Come downstairs and watch the Spring Festival Gala with Xiao Feng!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Sister Ying."

"I hope to hear you call me sister-in-law soon."

"...I'm still young..."

Han Xi blushed a little at the teasing and quickly dodged.

When I walked out of the room, I saw a figure at the corner of the second floor.

"uncle?"

That person was Qin Zhanhui.

"How is your aunt?" He glanced at the room behind her.

"Auntie is drunk, and Sister Ying is taking care of her inside."

"Oh, okay. I'll have someone make some hangover soup. Everyone drank quite a bit tonight. Let's drink a little before going to sleep."

"Okay, thank you uncle!"

"Yeah." After saying that, Qin Zhanhui went downstairs.

Han Xi stood there and glanced at the place where Qin Zhanhui had just stood. She always felt as if he was standing there waiting for her.

Just to ask about Lin Jing's situation?

Han Xi felt that her father-in-law in her previous life was not as cold and indifferent to Lin Jing as he was in her previous life.

but......

She turned around, looked at Lin Jing's room, and sighed.

A bit late...
