Chapter 68 Give Up All Hope
Shen Qingqing didn’t want to spoil the elders’ appetite. She held it in, over and over, restraining her impulse to get up and leave.
Even though the atmosphere was unpleasant, as long as she didn’t drop her chopsticks and walk out, the others could continue eating.
In the past, everyone’s evaluation of Shen Qingqing was that she had a good temper, was beautiful, and well-educated.
But this time back at the compound, everyone in the Jiang Family clearly sensed that Shen Qingqing was different than before.
Madam Jiang secretly broke into a cold sweat.
Qingqing was now impervious to persuasion, refusing even to give face to the elders. Would she really change her mind?
It wasn’t until the meal was over that Shen Qingqing finally felt a sense of relief.
Her left arm was still in a sling, so she couldn’t do the dishes, and the chore fell to Jiang Zhixun.
The old man urged her to go upstairs and rest. "You’ve traveled such a long way; you must be tired. Get a good night’s sleep, and tomorrow morning accompany Grandpa for a walk in the compound."
Every time Shen Qingqing came back to the compound, she would either play chess with the old man or take him out for a stroll.
