Chapter 153 Qiao Guangyuan's Visit
This sentence also hurt the man's heart. He had no right to explain anything and could only accept it. "Old man, I know you won't listen to my explanation. I also know that I can't defend myself and I have no right to argue with you."
"But I promise you, my daughter, I will protect her."
Her daughter?
Bai Zhanwang immediately understood what he meant and warned him solemnly, "My daughter's child belongs to our Bai family and has nothing to do with you!"
"You'd better never let her know of your existence, and I will not allow you to appear in front of her."
"If you don't listen to my advice, then our Bai family will be irreconcilable with you!" Bai Zhanwang threatened him without leaving any room for negotiation.
The man could tolerate any humiliation Bai Zhanwang inflicted on him, but he had no way of compromising on this matter. "Old man, what do you think the Bai family can do to me?"
Bai Zhanwang glared at him and said, "I advise you not to challenge the authority of an old man like me in the capital."
The man nodded in agreement and said with a smile, "Yes, everyone in the capital has to give you some respect, but why haven't you avenged your daughter until today?"
After saying this, the smile on the man's face disappeared without a trace in an instant, replaced by a face full of murderous intent and anger.
These words made Bai Zhanwang's heart tremble suddenly. This was the thing he was most reluctant to mention in recent years. "Shut up!"
The man seemed to know what he was thinking and speculated, "You don't want your granddaughter to be without a father, so you've been enduring it until today?"
It seemed that he had guessed it right, and Bai Zhanwang's face looked very unhappy.
The man smiled to himself and said, "It doesn't matter now. His biological father is back, so... there's no need to keep him."
"It's not your turn yet." Bai Zhanwang said loudly.
The man didn't want to hear those meaningless words, and no longer gave Bai Zhanwang face. He said directly: "I've given you enough time. I don't want to wait any longer."
"Anyone who hurts her must die, let alone take her life."
"Are you back just to get revenge?" Although Bai Zhanwang didn't want to say that, he still wanted to confirm it.
He really didn't want his daughter to have such a miserable life and fall in love with a cold-blooded and ruthless man. If he came back to avenge her, at least he would have a little comfort in his heart.
The man confessed, "I'm here to atone for my sins. Revenge is part of that atonement."
"If you really come here to atone your sins, then don't disturb Xiaoxi." Bai Zhanwang said the ugly words in advance.
He can let him take revenge as he pleases, and he can let him do it himself, but he will never let Xiaoxi recognize him as her father!
The man was unwilling to compromise and said, "I am her father. I have the right to see her."
After saying that, he said goodbye to Bai Zhanwang without giving him a chance to speak, "Take care, old man."
Without waiting for Bai Zhanwang to say anything, he turned and left.
Outside the cemetery, a Maybach was waiting for him. After he got in, he didn't let the driver drive away directly.
The driver waited for his instructions on where to go next, but before the driver could ask, the man said, "Tell me, why do people who do wrong seem to be so confident?"
"Sir, are you talking about Mr. Bai?" asked the driver.
The man laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Myself."
"It's obviously my fault, why can I still talk to him like this?"
"Sir, you are not wrong." The driver immediately comforted him.
The man shook his head slightly, a hint of sadness on his face. "If I had rejected her from the beginning, she would have stayed away from me. But I just couldn't bear to let her go, so I played hard to get to keep her. It wasn't until I found out that she was completely in love with me that I realized I couldn't let her stay with me anymore."
The driver said confidently, "You chose to let Miss Yi Mo leave because you were considering her safety."
"But what happened in the end?" The man's face flashed with murderous intent again. "She still left and died at the hands of a man who took advantage of her!"
"I'm going to kill him." The man said the cruelest words in a calm tone.
The driver immediately agreed, "Sir, I'll help you arrange it."
The man rejected his offer, "No, I want to do it myself."
"Yes." The driver agreed obediently.
"Go back." The man motioned him.
The driver then started the car, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Through the rearview mirror, the man could still vaguely see Bai Zhanwang's old face. Compared with ten years ago, he had aged faster.
The reason, of course, was the loss of his most beloved daughter.
"Wen Shaoqing, there are many things in this world that you will regret. If you abandon us today, you will spend the rest of your life in regret."
Xiao Mo, you are right. After you left, there is no sunshine in my world anymore.
When Qiao Xi returned home, she saw Qiao Guangyuan for the first time. Since she moved into Fuyuan, he had never visited her once.
No one comes here for no reason. It must be no good thing that he comes this time.
When Qiao Guangyuan saw Qiao Xi, he immediately went up to her with a smile, "Xiao Xi."
"Dad, why are you here?" Qiao Xi forced a smile from the corner of his mouth.
Qiao Guangyuan said to her in a flattering way, "Xiao Xi, let's find a place where there's no one around to talk."
Change place?
Qiao Xi saw the anxious expression on Qiao Guangyuan's face and thought that he felt it was inconvenient to talk here, so he needed to change places?
Just then, Aunt Liu came over with tea. When she saw Qiao Xi coming back, she immediately greeted him, "Madam, you're back."
"Yeah." Qiao Xi responded with a smile.
Aunt Liu immediately placed the tea on the table and said to Qiao Guangyuan, "Chairman Qiao, please have some tea."
Qiao Guangyuan deliberately put on a condescending attitude in front of Aunt Liu, which in Qiao Xi's opinion could no longer be described as "sitting down".
Qiao Xi also deliberately asked him in front of Aunt Liu, "Dad, is it inconvenient to talk here?"
Qiao Guangyuan didn't expect Qiao Xi to say it out loud, which made him lose face somewhat.
After all, this is Fuyuan. If he insists on speaking in a different context, he is treating his son-in-law as an outsider.
But Qiao Guangyuan really couldn't tell Qiao Xi about that matter here, so he could only quietly ask Qiao Xi again, "Xiao Xi, let's talk outside."
Seeing how sincere he was, Qiao Xi could only go along with him for now. "Aunt Liu, I'm going out with my dad. Please call me when Ajin comes back."
Aunt Liu hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Okay."
Qiao Xi followed Qiao Guangyuan to the outside of Fu Garden and found a secluded corner.
Before Qiao Xi could ask, Qiao Guangyuan grabbed Qiao Xi's hand and pleaded with her pitifully, "Xiao Xi, you have to help Dad this time."
