Chapter 271: Chapter 270 Heart Knot
Qi Zhen had drunk too much, and she frantically vented the grievances she had accumulated over the years…
Incident by incident…
Eventually, she collapsed onto the ground.
Yu Shuhua and Qi Wanli were in a flurry as they helped her into the car.
After settling Qi Zhen in, Qi Wanli walked back down from the car.
Although it was a summer night, he felt as if he were in the depths of winter.
The man’s face was haggard, and he trembled as he lit a cigarette, slowly squatting down by the roadside.
Qi Yue stood nearby, hesitating to speak.
After a long silence, Qi Wanli spoke first.
He deeply bowed his head, speaking softly to himself, “Your mother has been too indulgent with Zhenzhen since she was young, giving her whatever she wanted, which led her to grow up selfish and domineering, not knowing how to share. She always wanted all the attention to be on her.
And I, as a father, due to my own failures and incompetence, imposed hopes on her that she should not have borne. Zhenzhen was right; we, the parents, are truly to blame. All of today’s troubles…they were caused by us as parents…”
Qi Wanli raised his head, his dim eyes looking towards his eldest daughter, a bitter look in his eyes flashed a hint of relief, “Thank goodness…thank goodness you didn’t grow up with us…Your Second Uncle and your grandparents have raised you well…
You are strong, brave, kind, and even though you knew of our favoritism, you still cared for us, cared for Zhenzhen, and even when you lost, you did not fall into despair. You clearly know what you truly like and want, and you have the courage to give up and also the courage to start over…”
Qi Wanli gave a bitter smile: “In the past, your mother and I were always worried that your Second Uncle would teach you poorly, but in the end, we found that the ones who truly didn’t know how to teach were ourselves, and the true failures were also ourselves…”
Qi Wanli sighed deeply, “It is my obsession that was too deep; I despised those who clearly had talent but did not cherish it, yet I forgot that everyone has their own choices, and even if she is my daughter, I should not impose my thoughts on her life.”
Hearing Qi Wanli’s words, Qi Yue hesitated for a moment and then spoke, “This fixation of yours…it has something to do with Second Uncle, doesn’t it…because Second Uncle gave up shooting…”
Second Uncle’s talent in shooting far surpassed that of the father, but he chose to give it up at a time when he could have likely won the championship, to pursue fencing instead. Father had many talks with him back then, but couldn’t persuade him to come back.

Since then, the once close-knit brothers had become estranged.
This was probably why Qi Wanli so despised those who wasted their talent.
Qi Wanli painedly closed his eyes, “Yueyue, I’m not afraid to be laughed at by you, but I belong to the category of people without talent. What your Second Uncle could achieve easily, I had to put in ten to a hundred times the effort. So, when I saw him squandering his talent…”
Qi Yue: “I understand your feelings, but I think… you might have misunderstood Second Uncle…”
She hadn’t wanted to interfere in the matters of the previous generation.
But she hadn’t realized her father’s misunderstanding of Second Uncle was so deep.
“Misunderstanding?” Qi Wanli was puzzled.
Qi Yue spoke, “Do you remember, back then there was a girl on the women’s shooting team, named Qin, who was very pretty…”
Qi Wanli thought for a moment: “I don’t remember.”
