After severing all ties with family and friends, the villain's entire family was filled with re

Chapter 4: There's no choice at all!

Qin Lang's tone was stern, but he knew perfectly well that she was unwilling. If she cried and begged him, he would plead with his father for her...

Qin Wan's cold words interrupted Qin Lang's self-righteousness.

"Okay, I'll go as soon as I've changed!"

Qin Wan was naturally unwilling to apologize, but because of her punishment, her grandmother and father had already argued many times, and if she didn't go this time, her father would definitely be angry.

If Grandmother were to defend her, she would definitely argue with Father. Grandmother is already old; we absolutely cannot let her worry about my affairs anymore!

After saying that, Qin Wan, supported by Wan Shuang, turned around and went back to her room.

Qin Yi was stunned. "Second Brother, did I hear that right? She's actually willing to apologize? Is this really her?"

Qin Lang was also stunned. Was this really her? She had been spoiled since childhood. When had she ever apologized?

Even when caught red-handed, she stubbornly denies it; that's her usual tactic. What's wrong with her today?

Could it be that the caning had some effect?

But is it that she would rather apologize against her own conscience than beg herself again?

Thinking of this, Qin Lang felt angry, and this anger had been building up inside him for many days. Now, this anger was surging within him again, making him restless and anxious.

On the way to the front hall, Qin Wan walked very slowly because of her injuries.

Qin Lang deliberately kept a distance of five steps in front of Qin Wan so that he could hear her request in time.

Qin Lang thought to himself that as long as she begged him and said she didn't want to apologize, he would immediately go and explain everything to his parents!

However, as the two walked slowly, and they were about to enter the front hall, Qin Lang's anxious heart inexplicably began to feel angry again.

"Qin Wan, the main hall is just ahead. Don't blame me for not giving you a chance. Your parents and Yan'er are waiting. An apology is unavoidable. If you..."

Before Qin Lang could finish speaking, Qin Wan interrupted him.

"Since it's unavoidable, let's hurry up. Everyone's busy, so let's not waste any more time!"

She naturally didn't want to apologize, since it wasn't her fault. But the lessons of her previous life had taught her that her pleas and pitifulness would only annoy them more.

Qin Lang originally wanted to say that if you were unwilling, you didn't have to apologize!

But in the end, he couldn't bring himself to say it, because her indifference only fueled Qin Lang's anger, and he simply waved his sleeve and strode towards the front hall.

lobby.

Qin Huai and Han Shu were sitting in the main seats on either side of each other, while Su Yan'er, whose cold had been cured, was sitting to Han Shu's left.

Su Yan'er's complexion was very good after a few days of rest, and her pink dress today made her skin look even more rosy.

When Qin Lang came in, Su Yan'er wanted to get up and greet him, but seeing his angry look, she didn't dare to speak.

"What's wrong?" Han Shu asked first, seeing this. "Is Wan'er unwilling to apologize?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Huai snorted coldly, deliberately raising his voice.

"Hmph, she pushed someone into the water and she's gone too far! Although she's already been given twenty strokes of the cane, that's not enough to forgive her actions. She must apologize today!"

Qin Huai waved his hand, about to tell the butler Wang Heng to call Qin Wan again, but before he could give the order, Qin Wan had already appeared at the door.

Qin Wan, supported by Wan Shuang, slowly walked in.

The distance between Wanyue Courtyard and the front hall is not far; it used to only take a few minutes to walk there, but this time Qin Wan took a full incense stick's time to walk.

This was the first time she had walked such a long distance since being tortured. If Qin Wan hadn't gritted her teeth, she probably wouldn't have been able to persevere.

Upon entering the front hall, Qin Wan's small face was deathly pale, filled with pain.

Upon seeing this, Han Shu, who was in the main seat, felt a sudden pang in her heart and instinctively wanted to get up to check on her daughter.

But then she remembered Qin Huai's instructions: no matter what Wan'er looks like this time, you must not be soft-hearted.

If she doesn't completely repent this time, then she's utterly hopeless!

Thinking of this, in order to change her daughter's personality and for her daughter's future, Han Shu suppressed the urge to rush up and hug her daughter, and the handkerchief in her hand was already wrinkled from being clenched.

She only visited Wan'er twice these past few days because Wan'er was injured. Wan'er must be resenting her, right?

Fine, if this makes her repent, I'll find a way to make it up to her later!

After Qin Wan steadied herself, Wan Shuang stepped aside and bowed slightly, saying, "Father, Mother!"

Han Shu dared not speak, afraid that she would burst into tears if she opened her mouth.

But Qin Huai spoke up directly, "Qin Wan, do you know why I called you here today?"

"know."

"Since you know that, do you know your mistake?"

"I already admitted my mistake at the Empress's birthday banquet seven days ago."

Qin Wan's indifferent words made it sound like she was talking about something completely ordinary.

Qin Huai had prepared himself to be even stricter with her if she cried and complained, but Qin Wan's reaction surprised him.

She had no expression or tone of voice. You know, she wasn't like this before. She would cry and fuss, she would say that her father and mother didn't love her anymore, and she would throw herself into their arms and act spoiled.

However unexpected it may be, the authority of the Qin Huai family head will not be taken back.

"Since you know you're wrong, then you should apologize to Yan'er right away. If you have a good attitude today, we can let bygones be bygones. If you're still not satisfied, then we'll have to punish you again!"

Hearing this, Qin Wan almost laughed in anger. When had they ever given her a choice?

Qin Lang stared intently at Qin Wan. Qin Wan still had a chance. If she begged him, he would definitely ask his parents to let him not apologize!

However, as he watched her gradually turn towards Su Yan'er, the veins on the back of Qin Lang's hand bulged instantly.

Fine! Since she's unwilling to ask, if she has any other requests next time, even if she cries for three days and three nights, he won't grant them!

Qin Wan slowly turned around to face Su Yan'er and said.

“Sister Yan’er, I was in the wrong at the birthday banquet. I caused you to fall into the water and catch a cold.”

During the days I've been recuperating in the hospital, the thought of you being seriously ill in bed has filled me with guilt and unease. I hope my dear sister Yan'er can forgive me!

After speaking, Qin Wan bowed slightly to Su Yan'er. Her injuries had not yet healed, and walking for so long, coupled with bowing, caused her wounds to tear open.

That's excruciating pain!

Seeing Qin Wan's body sway slightly, Wan Shuang quickly stepped forward to support her.

Han Shu felt a sharp pang in her heart upon seeing this, and wanted to step forward as well, but Qin Huai secretly stopped her.

Qin Lang, however, was still feeling troubled.

Even though your body can't take it anymore, you insist on holding on. Who are you trying to impress?

It's all just for show!
