Chapter 934 - We are Home (1/2)
Xia Mingzheng was angry and furious, but he was helpless and had heartache at the same time. He had only this one daughter his entire life. For this daughter of his, he had invested half his life. Everyone said that children were parents’ enemies in their previous lives. If this was true, he had already repaid a lot of debt to Xia Yixuan. What could he do? What could he still do?
“No matter who asks you about this, just don’t admit it.” Xia Mingzheng clenched his teeth and told Xia Yixuan.
“I know, Daddy.” Xia Yixuan had never intended to admit to it, but she was not just worrying about this now.
“Daddy, then how should we settle the Lu family’s side?”
“You can’t admit it either.” Actually, Xia Mingzheng really had no other way; and they could only just deny it all the way. If the Lu family wanted to expose them, they would have done it a long time ago and would not have waited until now.
“Yixuan, I’ll send you overseas to hide for a while.”
After much thinking, he felt that it was better to send Xia Yixuan away. Just like four years ago, she could go wherever she wanted to hide. The best was that she did not come back at all. Having a living daughter was better than having one in jail.
He could not bear for his daughter to leave, but it was impossible for him to gamble with the rest of his daughter’s life.
“I won’t.” Xia Yixuan pulled up the blanket and hid herself in it. No matter what, she wanted to stay. If she just left now, she would be indignant. She would not be appeased.
Xia Mingzheng stood up and was too disappointed in his daughter. He really wanted to just beat her to death, but it was a pity that it was a girl he had doted on and spoiled like his life since young. In the end, he caused her to become like that. If it was a son, he would have long thrown him into the dumps.
Now, the thing he wanted to know was…
How did Lu Xiaohua know about this? Did she see it, or did she know Xia Ruoxin? However, he had never imagined that the missy of the Lu family was actually Xia Ruoxin.
The father and daughter talked and planned as if there was no one around them, but they did not realize that the woman on the opposite sickbed was clutching onto the blanket tightly. She allowed her tears to drop one by one and sink into the blanket.
Actually, Xia Mingzheng did not sleep well for the past few days as he was always afraid that the Lu family would cause trouble for them. He had almost woken up uneasily every day from his sleep and spent every second and minute in agony. In the middle of the night when it was all quiet, he then relaxed for a little. Luckily, they did not come that day.
A few days later, he was secretly happy in his heart as he thought that the Lu family did not even take this matter to heart, or perhaps they did not even want to mention it. After all, this was also a scandal for the Lu family.
A few days later, he finally relaxed; but he was not only worrying about the Lu family. There was also Shen Yijun. Ever since the matter was exposed, she moved to a room where no one in the Xia household stayed. As for himself, he followed the troublemaker daughter of his every day and did not dare to go anywhere else. Now, Xia Mingzheng could still watch over her; after Xia Yixuan got married, there would only be him at home.
The older he got, the more afraid he was of being lonely so he thought more about Shen Yijun’s merits. Just that, could they still go back to the past?
“Can’t you just marry another one?” Xia Yixuan frowned. “There are so many women in the world.”
Xia Mingzheng glared at Xia Yixuan. “Then, why must you marry Chu Lui? There are so many men in the world.”
Xia Yixuan was pricked in her heart as she slammed the cup onto the floor and went back to her room.
Xia Mingzheng was once again conflicted, afraid, and upset. Why was he pacing back and forth? It was all because of them. It was just because he could not leave her. Even Xia Yixuan knew that she could not leave Chu Lui; did she not think that it was the same for him? Actually, his father could not leave Shen Yijun.
