Chapter 259 The Lost Father-Daughter Love (2/2)
”Shen Xinglan!?” He Shishi shouted.
The music stopped suddenly, and the islanders who had just lifted their glasses slowly quieted down. Everyone's eyes were focused on the few people.
”Miss!” Shen I and Shen II suddenly appeared.
Shen Xinglan stood there. His eyes were full of surprise, then anger, and finally longing as well as excitement. Finally... he became calm and it seemed that his mood just now had been her illusion.
”She looks like our island owner!”
”Huh? They do look alike!”
”How is it possible? Who is she?”
When the people around A Miao clearly saw her face, they were also amazed.
”What's the matter?” A man came out of the bamboo building.
Likewise, he first saw A Miao standing in front of the couple.
”You...” The middle-aged man was stunned, and a woman followed him closely. The woman's eyes flashed when she saw A Miao, and she quickly laughed and said, ”This must be Xinglan's ex-wife!”
A Miao had no time to respond to her deliberate sarcasm. She turned her gaze from Shen Xinglan to the middle-aged man.
”Do you know a woman named Xia He?”
The middle-aged man frowned and went up to A Miao and looked at her carefully. ”No, who are you? Why do you look like me?”
”I also want to know who I am.” A Miao smiled. ”I also want to know why we look so alike.”
”Daddy!” A clear and melodious voice interrupted two people. ”My wedding is being delayed by her.”
A Xue looked at A Miao with dissatisfaction and even hatred. Shen Xinglan kept looking at A Miao after she appeared.
”A Xue, don't be so rude.” The woman who stood behind went over to them, comforting the bride with her eyes, and then smiled at A Miao. ”It seems that you are that woman's daughter.”
A Miao looked at them silently, and Shen Xinglan also kept staring at her.
”Don't be impulsive, or it will be more dangerous for her.” Wei Meng secretly went behind Shen Xinglan and asked Ding V to hold him tightly.
Yu Sihan laughed. ”I think it's time to talk about it somewhere else. What do you think? Even if you, the island owner, don't care about her identity, your son-in-law can't let it go!”
”No!” A Xue shouted angrily. ”Xinglan, you said you would repay me for saving your life. What are you thinking now?”
Shen Xinglan opened his clenched fist and a few drops of blood dropped on the ground. No one except Yu Sihan saw that.
”Island Owner A Min, since I promised to marry your daughter, I will not renege, but now...” He tried to control himself from looking at A Miao. ”Don't you want to know why there is a girl in the world who looks like you?”
Yu Sihan ignored some people's murderous eyes and took the lead to the bamboo building on the right. ”Hurry up and settle it quickly. Then you can enjoy your wedding night!”
”What's going on?” He Shishi caught Wei Meng very hard and urgently asked her, ”Does Shen Xinglan really want to marry that woman?”
Wei Meng looked at her contemptuously. ”How did A Miao get here? You actually didn't keep an eye on her.”
”How interesting. If you have the ability, you can do that.” He Shishi swung her arms and went ahead.
Everyone crowded into the bamboo building. The island owner, A Min, and his wife, Ai Wa, sat on the throne. Shen Xinglan stood there. A Xue tried to pull him to sit down but was pushed aside by Shen Xinglan.
”25 years ago, you fell in love with a woman named Xia He in Country Hua and she gave birth to a daughter. Then you disappeared soon after.” A Miao stood in the middle of the room. Behind her was a group of her friends.
The island owner, with a face that looked 80 percent like A Miao's, frowned and looked at Ai Wa beside. ”Is that what you said before, and what I forgot due to amnesia?”
”Maybe.” Ai Wa nodded sadly. ”You've lost three years of memory...” She looked at A Miao. ”As far as the lady's appearance is concerned, she shouldn't have lied.”
The island owner pondered for a moment and then said with an uneasy feeling, ”I'm sorry. More than 20 years ago, I was injured and drifted on the sea for a long time before being rescued by the clan. After I woke up, it was discovered that I lost three years of memory.”
”You mean you forgot that you loved a woman and your daughter?” A Miao's calm mood finally changed.
She stepped forward two steps with her body trembling and said, ”Did you forget? How could you forget?”
He Shishi rushed forward to help her. ”A Miao...”
”My mother had waited for you for more than 10 years and never complained until she died. She also told me that you must not have abandoned us intentionally, but must have been looking for us.” A Miao pushed He Shishi aside.
”But now you're in front of me and tell me that you don't remember anything. You don't remember a woman who broke up with her family for you. You don't remember that she was humiliated for having a baby before marriage. You don't remember a girl who lost her father before she was born!”
A Miao covered her chest. She was too angry to breathe smoothly. Standing beside, Shen Xinglan could no longer control himself. He reached out his hands and held A Miao in his arms.
”Go away!” A Miao pushed him aside fiercely.
Shen Xinglan's heart was hurt by the indifference in her eyes. Ding V held him back before he could say something.
”I can only say I'm sorry...” The island owner looked at her with guilt. ”But I admit that you are my daughter. You can rest assured of that!”
A Miao smiled coldly. ”No, I lived well without my father in the first half of my life, and I don't need him in the second half of my life.”
