The food on the table had already turned cold. Jiang Yaner did not eat much, but actually, she was more interested in seeing this table that was filled with her father's beloved, delicious food.
It was difficult for Jiang Yaner and her father to sleep. They both thought of too many things and hid too many things from each other. It wasn't that they were unwilling to tell others, it was just that they felt that even if they said it, they wouldn't be able to solve it.
They were indeed father and son. The stubbornness of their similar characters was such that they were destined to silently pay for each other without any change in their expressions.
Jin Chen was already fast asleep and the current Jin Chen and Ni Xiaoxing was already sleeping. Their relationship was real, and Jin Chen and Jin Chen's relationship was just a sacrifice for the Wealthy Class marriage. Each can not really choose love, only in the so-called marital conditions attached to more favourable conditions for the development of both companies.
Since the second day of Ni Xiaoxing's engagement to Jin Chen, he had been forced into a cold palace. Jin Chen had never once touched Ni Xiaoxing, nor even looked at him directly. Other than taking care of his parents' business, Ni Xiaoxing was trying to find ways to ease their relationship.
Jiang Yaner's peace of mind after returning home had never existed. She knew that her only family, her only love, as long as they were safe and sound, was her greatest happiness.
When Jiang Yaner woke up, it was the time for the afternoon sun to shine. She lazily stretched her waist, as if the entire world was so calm and natural.
”Daddy?” After Jiang Yaner washed up, he went to find her father out of habit.
No one replied him. Jiang Yaner did not think too much about his father leaving this time around to strive for her own peace. With a rich breakfast on the table, Jiang Yaner smiled widely. Jiang Yaner felt that this was a natural joy. Her father was alive, working to save the dying and helping the wounded. Occasionally taking a small vacation was the life she longed for. But how long could such happiness last? She would quickly return to Jin Chen's grasp. After suffering so much pain, when would she be able to struggle free and obtain the freedom that should have been hers. Even if she didn't love him, she wouldn't love him anymore.
Jiang Yaner sat down and ate her father's breakfast. Tears of happiness filled her eyes.
He was secretly grateful to his father, who was already an old man.
Jiang Lao had already reached the coffee shop near the Jinjiajia villa. He sat down and waited for Jin Chen to meet him again. Actually, the Jiang Lao still took the initiative to make the appointment this time. He said that it was about Jiang Yaner, and he was extremely anxious.
Jin Chen, who was neither hurried nor slow, with hair that seemed to have turned white overnight, was very shocked in his heart. He was worried but indifferent.
”Hurry up and tell me, what is it?” Jin Chen said in an impatient tone.
”If I can exchange my daughter's calmness, I'll do anything you want me to. Ah, including my life, I'm willing to do that.” Jiang Lao's eyes that were filled with tears did not move the cold-blooded Jin Chen. Jin Chen could not understand how his father's love could be this strong, because other than business, it was business.
Jin Chen said in disdain, ”You can exchange for my father's reincarnation? You made me lose my loved ones, so I will make all of you suffer. ”
Jin Chen's vicious eyes were filled with hatred, hatred that came from the depths of his heart that yearned to be loved. Jin Chen was quiet, he looked haughty and arrogant, but his heart was more fragile than anyone else. He too longed for a home to love and the joy of a family with young and old. But his family couldn't give him these. Yes, the heavens are fair. If the heavens bestow upon you something that others do not have, it will also deprive you of the desire to obtain what others have.
Jiang Lao's eyes were bloodshot as he wiped away his tears, letting go of his former dignity. ”That's right, it's hard to make up for my mistakes after all, but if you don't agree, I'll kneel down and not get up.” Jiang Lao said as he dropped to his knees. Jiang Lao used to be the dignified CEO of the Jiang Clan, but now he had even knelt down to a brat in exchange for the rest of his daughter's peace. But Jiang Lao felt that it was worth it, that this kind of love was something that was even more natural than his first love.
Jin Chen laughed in scorn, and the corner of his mouth hooked up: ”You also have this day, so why did you need to make the mistakes you made before? Now you are going to repay them in such a way, the heavens are still fair!”
Besides hatred, Jin Chen could not conceal his revenge right now. ”It's not that I don't want to hug you, it's just that the time is not right yet.” Jin Chen didn't know about the grudge between Jiang Lao and his father. He was immersed in the whirlpool of his father's death, unable to extricate himself.
”It's not that you can't consider your conditions. Allow me to consider them. I will make it so that you will live a life worse than death.” Jin Chen's words made people panic.
Jiang Lao was a person who had experienced too many trials and hardships. From having nothing to having ten thousand gold coins, to being above ten thousand people, to experiencing life and death situations, to being able to live after death.
Therefore, Jiang Lao was not afraid of Jin Chen's threats, as long as Jin Chen let his daughter go. Jin Chen was fearless against any of his punishments and tortures.
Jiang Lao was still kneeling at Jin Chen's feet. Jin Chen's haughty head had not lowered from the beginning to the end, his haughtiness and heroic spirit had completely vanished without a trace.
Jin Chen shrugged his shoulders, Jiang Yaner's shadow flashed past him, maybe it was just a coincidence, but Jin Chen's eyes became a little more anxious, but instantly cooled down.
After Jiang Yan'er finished eating breakfast, she enjoyed a moment of peace. After thinking about it again and again, she decided to talk to Jin Chen. Even if Jin Chen were to torture her in the future, she hoped that Jin Chen would not hide his dagger to deal with her, and not hurt her one and only family member.
Jiang Yaner was not confident, but she insisted on going. Of course Jiang Yaner didn't make an appointment, she was only thinking that she must wait until Jin Chen to see him. Even more so, she did not expect the scene where her father kneeled and begged Jin Chen with tears in his eyes.
The coffee shop's lights were dull, but through the window, they could see the traffic outside clearly. Maybe when Jin Chen left, he would hate Jin Chen less, or maybe this was the result Jin Chen wanted too. Jin Chen said in disdain, ”As expected of father and daughter, such tacit understanding!”
