Chapter 1034 - An Feng and Helian Xiao’s Ending (1) (1/2)

Nan Zhi stared at the gentleness and happiness An Feng was exuding unconsciously, her lips curling up into a faint smile. “Mom, you’re biased towards him already!”

An Feng glared at Nan Zhi with heated ears. “You! I only want the family to get along well. Besides, with your father believing me and standing by my side without any hesitation to deal with his ‘first love’, I think that he’s a good man that is understanding and reasonable too.”

Nan Zhi nodded.

On this matter, Helian Xiao did do very well.

After all, not every man would be able to believe a woman they had only just chose to be with, and suspect the first love that they had once adored.

As if thinking of something, An Feng sighed softly. “I didn’t expect that your Dad’s real first love would be gone. He must feel sad too!”

Before Nan Zhi could speak up, a man’s low and magnetic voice rang from the door suddenly. “What are you two talking about?”

Staring at Helian Xiao who had just returned, An Feng wiggled her eyes at Nan Zhi. “Zhizhi, go quick!”

Nan Zhi’s scalp was starting to numb.

After all, she was not a child anymore. To be honest, it was slightly hard for her to call Helian Xiao ‘Dad’ instead.

It was not that she didn’t acknowledge him as her father, but that she felt slightly embarra.s.sed about it. Nan Zhi bit her lip, walking in front of Helian Xiao and stared at him with bright eyes.

Helian Xiao seemed to have understood what she was going to do, his eyes on her darkening slightly. His well-defined features were tense as he showed an expression of nervousness and antic.i.p.ation.

Nan Zhi naturally didn’t miss Helian Xiao’s expression, the ‘Dad’ she almost called out changing into, “You and Mom should talk, I’ll go down to talk to Grandma first.”

Nan Zhi walked past Helian Xiao.

Helian Xiao clenched his fists, then relaxed. He turned around, staring at Nan Zhi as he said hoa.r.s.ely, “Zhizhi, it’s alright. There’s no pressure.”

Nan Zhi hummed as she continued walking forward.

She took a few steps, before she stopped and turned around to glance towards the room. All she saw was Helian Xiao standing there, looking at her quietly as his eyes were filled with the affection and guilt belonging to a father towards his daughter. It was vastly different from the Big Boss look he had in the corporation usually.

In this moment, he was only a father who was looking at and desired the acceptance of his daughter.

When Nan Zhi didn’t know about her true ident.i.ty in the past, she had never seen such an expression from Nan Weiye. In the past, she used to question why her father didn’t like her, question why he needed to do those things to hurt her.

“Dad.”

Nan Zhi’s eyes were slightly red, as she mustered all of her energy and strength to call out shakily.

Helian Xiao froze after hearing the word. Suddenly, he became a child that had gotten his candy, raising his hands up to hit his head. He turned back to look at An Feng, who was still in the room, tearing up. “Zhizhi called me just now?”

An Feng felt herself tear up as well when she noted the tears swarming in Helian Xiao’s eyes. “You didn’t hear wrongly, Zhizhi did call you.”

Helian Xiao hit his head once more.

An Feng glanced at the man who was still standing there, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. “Aren’t you going to hug Zhizhi?”

“Yes.”

Helian Xiao strode out, rus.h.i.+ng in front of Nan Zhi. Before Nan Zhi could react, his long arms reached out and hugged her tightly.

Helian Xiao thought that he wouldn’t be able to hear Nan Zhi call him ‘Dad’ so quickly. Although he said it was alright, that he could wait, he still wanted to hear his daughter call him ‘Dad’. In this moment, he was agitated and happy.

“Zhizhi, can you call me once more?”
