Chapter 556: Chapter 556: The Mistake of Being Too Kind

Yan Han expressed his conjecture, and the living room fell silent.

After all, among the people sitting here, apart from Zhu Qianying, the other three Yan family members are people who have once been influential. Now that they know the truth, the impact they experience, as they were manipulated this way, can be imagined.

The first to react was the old lady Yan.

"What are we waiting for? Wouldn’t it be simpler to directly bring Yi Changxing and Zhu Junwei to the Tong village for questioning?"

Zhu Qianying glanced at Yan Han again. Could it be that he had already brought them back?

"Mom! It’s an invitation, not a capture!"

Yan Han’s words confirmed Zhu Qianying’s guess.

"So what did they say?" The old lady Yan is an impatient person. Although she has become more restrained and easygoing over the years, can something ingrained change just by saying it should?

"For now, they are not willing to say anything!"

" However, I will find a way to make them talk!"

Only then did Zhu Qianying understand the purpose of Yan Han’s actions.

"So, you agreed to let the police make this mental evaluation, not because you want to know whether Yi Wei is truly insane, but whether she has truly suffered severe brain trauma?"

Yan Han nodded, "Yes, in fact, I have inspected the hospital records from five years ago when Yi Wei was hospitalized, but clearly, Zhu Junwei is very clever and even those records are made flawlessly."

"Then, not long after I started to doubt, such an incident occurred."

In fact, if this had not happened, Yan Han was also prepared to forcefully send Yi Wei for an examination.

However, there was no need for Zhu Qianying to know about these plans.

Just like how the invitation to Yi Changxing and Zhu Junwei to Tong village was handled, unless necessary, Yan Han did not want Zhu Qianying to get involved too much.

After Yan Han explained everything, he probably feared that Zhu Qianying would overthink, so he gave her hand a squeeze, "Ying’er, would you like to go upstairs and talk?"

Zhu Qianying originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Yan Han’s earnest expression, there was a faint trace of pleading.

She had no choice but to stand up, say something to Mr. and Mrs. Yan Bo, and then follow Yan Han upstairs.

Upon entering the door, Yan Han eagerly embraced Zhu Qianying.

"Ying’er, can you forgive me?"

Zhu Qianying sighed slightly, "In fact, looking back now, you were also a victim."

She did not know who to blame for this whole incident.

"Why couldn’t I see through it at the time!" Yan Han too was filled with regret.

He had thought that he had acted out of morality back then.

But knowing the truth now, the so-called morality becomes very laughable.

Therefore, what Zhu Qianying said was not wrong.

In this incident, Yi Wei manipulated Yan Han’s guilt and feelings for her.

Perhaps, Yan Han was the biggest victim five years ago.

But as a victim, even he himself didn’t think he deserved any sympathy!

At this moment, Yan Han could only mock himself, "I was too kindhearted!"

Of course, being ’kindhearted’ was just a euphemism. To put it plainly, he was too naive!

Seeing Yan Han’s complicated and entangled expression, Zhu Qianying couldn’t bear to see him like that.

"Let it go, so much time has passed, why are you still obsessing over it. After all, we’re only human, no one can guarantee being completely rational and clear-headed when it comes to matters of the heart!"

Zhu Qianying’s words finally made Yan Han feel somewhat relieved. He embraced her once more, and for a long time, he was unwilling to let go.

...

After explaining the old matters of five years ago, Yan Han didn’t stay at home for long because he still had many things to do.

When Zhu Qianying accompanied him downstairs, the old lady Yan and Yan Bo were still sitting as they had been earlier, looking solemn.

Apparently, even now, the two old people couldn’t accept the fact that their kindness and so-called morality were used like this.

It seems like the truth of the matter impacted the Yan family far more than it did Zhu Qianying.

"Dad, Mom, what do you want to eat for lunch? I can cook!"

Zhu Qianying’s mood was not at its best either, she wanted to find a place to vent her feelings, and the kitchen was still her go-to place.

"Let the chef do it, Ying’er, come sit with me!" The old lady Yan motioned Zhu Qianying over.

Zhu Qianying quickly walked over and took her arm, "Mom and dad, I’ll accompany you on a walk!"

But Yan Bo said, "You two go ahead, I’ll make a phone call."

Zhu Qianying arm in arm with the old lady Yan, strolled leisurely outside. When the old lady Yan remained silent, Zhu Qianying did too.

The May sun was starting to get too hot, and after a short walk on the main road, the two of them couldn’t take it anymore and turned into a shady side road.

This was when the old lady Yan finally spoke up, "Ying’er, if you want to scold me, go ahead. I think I deserve to be scolded."

Zhu Qianying thought that the old lady Yan was upset because she couldn’t accept that she was being used, but it turns out it was about her instead.

"Mom, this incident isn’t your fault. In reality, my relationship with Yan Han wasn’t that stable at that time. Otherwise, no one would have been able to separate us in that way."

Zhu Qianying had already let go of the past. Five years ago, excluding Yi Wei’s ill intentions, it all boiled down to her issues with Yan Han.

If her relationship with Yan Han had been as deep as it is now, Yi Wei’s ploys would have just been self-performed clown shows.

"That might be true, but still, if I hadn’t been softhearted back then, Yan Han wouldn’t have stayed behind to care for her for so long, and you wouldn’t have left in anger."

However, Zhu Qianying didn’t agree, "Mom, don’t take this upon yourself. Yan Han is not the type to obediently listen to his parents, is he?"

Hearing Zhu Qianying’s words, the old lady Yan immediately grabbed her hand nervously, "Ying’er, don’t misunderstand. At that time, Yan Han truly had no feelings for Yi Wei."

This matter was already passed, but now, it was dug up again because of the so-called truth.

Since it had been brought up again, Zhu Qianying decided to make it clear to the old lady Yan so that she wouldn’t constantly worry about it.

"Mom, actually, I decided to be with Yan Han because of who he is now. What happened in the past doesn’t matter anymore."

"Of course, hearing about this today made me feel uncomfortable, but it won’t affect my decision, and it won’t cause me to have any dissatisfaction or prejudice against Yan Han. We’ve already wasted five years because of an unrelated person like Yi Wei, we won’t make that mistake again."

After hearing Zhu Qianying’s heartfelt words, the old lady Yan finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"Ying’er, thank you for understanding, and thank you for letting go!"
