Chapter 323 - Jiang Bingqing’s Fate III (2/2)

Jiang Yijun, who stood not too far away, did not approach and disturb them. He also left the place.

”Ruolan, what do you want to tell me?” Seeing that everyone was gone, Jiang Guanyu's eyes were gradually filled with the rare love of a father. He also seemed to be very helpless and in unexplained difficulties.

Of course, Jiang Ruolan would not soften her heart because of his gaze. Even if he had any difficulties, it wasn't her problem. She already decided that it was useless to feel pity for this kind of man.

She stood up and asked directly, ”How is my mother's family? Do you know her background?”

Jiang Guanyu was stunned, ”Qingling, she... I heard she is the illegitimate daughter of some rich family but she has never been recognized by that family since she was young. All I know is that she has been alone and doesn't have any special background, why would you ask that?”

Jiang Ruolan frowned. ”You only know this much?”

Jiang Guanyu sighed lightly, ”Qingling looked gentle, but she was actually very stubborn. You followed your mother's personality a lot, and there were many things she hid from me at the time. I did not investigate in-depth, but after she committed suicide, I respected her body, did not let the medical examiner examine it. I was the one who cleaned her body directly and buried it secretly. However, this happened more than 20 years ago. Ruolan, if you hate me because I was heartless, then there's nothing I can do. But Bingqing, she-

”But Bingqing is your and Zhan Lian's precious daughter, your lifeblood. If something were to happen to her, you wouldn't be able to continue living, right?” Jiang Ruolan smiled.

Jiang Guanyu was stunned.

”Jiang Guanyu, I have never spoken to you like this before. Now that I am also going to be a mother, I understand my mother's expectations back then, but today, I just want to ask you. If you had known what happened eight years ago was because of Bingqing, would you punish her? Or do you prefer me to be in silence and hide the truth for the rest of my life?”

Jiang Guanyu paused on the spot, as if he never thought Jiang Ruolan would ask this question to him.

”Actually, even if you knew about it back then, there is still no difference with it now.” Jiang Ruolan looked at his embarrassed expression with a smirk. ”I'm always a burden to you, Jiang Guanyu. You wish for me to die quickly, and wish that I wouldn't cause any trouble for the peace and tranquility of your family! But today, when something happened to Jiang Bingqing, you just remembered that I was your daughter, and you remember to beg me. I cried and shouted 'Dad!' like how I cried in the abandoned warehouse all those years ago. I cried for your help. I cried for you to save me, but where were you at that time? What are you doing? Now that Jiang Bingqing has been arrested, you willingly flew to H City overnight and begged for my help. You are willing to lose your face in order to save your precious daughter. Jiang Guanyu, why are you so biased? Why should I help you!”

”Ruolan...Dad just--”

”You just never thought of me as your daughter! Therefore, I won't treat you like a father! You can rest assured, I will not take revenge. I will let state law punish her. And not just eight years ago, even a few months ago, your daughter still wanted to repeat the same thing to me! If you don't want Jiang Bingqing to die without a burial ground, I advise you to shut your honorable golden mouth and stop harming me!”

”Ruolan, dad is begging you, okay? Please let Bingqing go!”

Jiang Ruolan didn't want to cry. Back when she left the Jiang Family, she had told herself that she would never shed tears for this family again in her life.

She raised her head to look at the exquisitely carved ceiling and the resplendent chandelier. She forcefully held back her tears, but there was still a trace of warmth that quietly slipped out from the corner of her eyes.

This was her father …

How many times had she begged them, squatting in front of the Jiang Family's House like a beggar, pitifully asking for their help? Had they ever given her even a little bit of charity?

But now, for Jiang Bingqing's sake, he actually asked for her help.

Seeing Jiang Ruolan's back was facing him and she was completely ignoring him, Jiang Guanyu quickly looked around. When he confirmed there was no one around, he thought for a while, then suddenly lowered his body and kneeled on the floor. ”Dad will kneel on you. As long as you choose to let Bingqing go, I will do anything.”
