Chapter 155: I Won’t Touch Her
Shen Jinci brought breakfast over and placed it beside Bian Yue, stroking her hair and asking her what was wrong, as she looked unhappy.
Bian Yue put down her phone, silently moved closer to Shen Jinci, and hugged his waist.
Shen Jinci noticed Bian Yue’s low spirits, so he bent down and gently patted her back: "What’s the matter? Who made our Bian Yue unhappy?"
Bian Yue sniffed the reassuring cold fragrance from Shen Jinci, shook her head vigorously, and after a moment, her emotions finally settled, and she whispered softly, "Jinci, today is my parents’ death anniversary. Can you accompany me to visit them?"
Shen Jinci felt deeply apologetic.
"Sorry, Yueyue..." Shen Jinci couldn’t continue. He knelt down in front of Bian Yue, looked up at her: "The death anniversary released by the Bian Family is not today; I didn’t investigate further."
"At that time, when my parents had the accident, the Bian Family wanted to settle the inheritance first before announcing my parents’ death, so the date they announced publicly wasn’t actually my parents’ death anniversary, it was the seventh day after their death."
Bian Yue’s eyes reddened, and her voice was hoarse: "I was so useless at that time, I couldn’t protect the belongings my parents left me, nor could I protect their dignity in completing their final journey in life."
Tears fell from Bian Yue’s eyes, Shen Jinci raised his hand, patiently wiping them away.
His voice grew softer and tenderer, slowly saying: "Yueyue, it’s not your fault. You were very young at that time. Being able to take care of yourself and grow up so well, your mom and dad would definitely be happy for you."
