Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 487

Chapter 487: Chapter 487: Protecting One’s Own Child

Her nephew was cultivated and even in that situation, he bore his responsibilities as a man, taking into account Gao Lele’s feelings.

At this moment, as Gao Lele asked this, she also guessed the reason.

"Lele, Jianjun didn’t go anywhere. Stop looking for him; you two are not suitable."

Qin Jianjun had no plans to marry for the time being, and he was even less interested in Gao Lele. Qin Juan didn’t want to trouble her nephew with the Gao family any longer.

What if they went looking for him at his school next time?

What about her nephew’s reputation?

A mother’s duty is to protect her own child.

Tears fell directly from Gao Lele’s eyes when she heard this, "Sister Juan, I’m sorry. I didn’t know my parents went to find Qin Jianjun. He must be angry with me. Please tell me where he is; I want to explain to him."

"Lele, Jianjun doesn’t need your explanation, and he won’t be mad at you. Don’t worry, I, as his aunt, know exactly what kind of person he is. The way he’s acting now is probably just to avoid further trouble for both of you."

"Trouble?" Gao Lele, with tears falling drop by drop from her downcast eyes.

So she was a trouble to him?

It made sense. Her parents must have caused him a lot of trouble.

"Sister Juan, I really want to apologize to him," and also wanted to ask him if he truly didn’t feel anything for her?

If there was even a slight feeling, as long as he said so, she would dare to confront her parents.

Even if it meant leaving that home, she still wanted to be with him.

Qin Juan could clearly see Gao Lele’s thoughts and said directly, "I will pass on your apology to Jianjun. Lele, some things can’t be forced, especially considering your parents’ attitude. We have the freedom to love and marry whom we want. I’m not saying that you must always obey your parents, but I believe their hearts are the same—they want the best for their children. He’s avoiding you because that’s his stance."

Gao Lele nodded, finally saying no more.

At that moment, a soft call came from the entrance, "Manager Jia."

"Manager Jia, you’re back."

"Manager Jia, have you eaten?"

...

Jia Liang was just walking in from the entrance.

While responding to the small talk from the young staff members, his eyes swept across the lobby and finally rested on Qin Juan sitting in the corner.

A gentle smile flickered in his eyes.

He walked towards her without hesitation.

As he approached, he noticed Gao Lele by her side, with red-rimmed eyes, clearly having just cried.

Seeing Jia Liang return, Gao Lele initially felt a surge of joy, then a sinking feeling as she lowered her eyes, "Manager Jia."

If... if Jia Liang had come back a bit earlier, she could have applied to transfer to work at the mall.

Then maybe, she would have known right away when her parents went to the mall looking for Qin Jianjun and prevented the situation from escalating to this point.

Maybe there was still a chance for her and Qin Jianjun.
