I'm In Love With the Guy I Grew Up With

Chapter 286 My Wife, I Will Cherish You 3

Lu Qinghe, dissatisfied, said, "Even if that’s the case, it was just a misunderstanding, just a glass of wine. Could it really cause death? There must have been a mistake somewhere for the two kids to end up together..."

Ning Jingshen said gravely, "Let’s just leave it at that!"

Ning Xixi listened quietly, her heart wanting to laugh more and more at Ning Jingshen.

So this is her father.

So her retreat didn’t bring family harmony, but an ever-more excessive encroachment!

"Leave it at that?" Ji Yebai enunciated each word slowly, his well-defined fingers tightening on the glass until, unexpectedly to everyone, he furiously smashed it!

The crisp sound was intimidating, the glass suddenly shattered into pieces!

"Ning Xixi is allergic to alcohol, do I need to educate you on that? Alcohol allergy can cause swelling, throat swelling in mild cases! Serious cases can lead to breathing difficulties, if not rescued in time it can be fatal!" His eyes cold, "Let me ask you, if Ning Xixi drank a full glass of juice mixed with concentrated alcohol, would she still be alive today? Hmm?!"

Gong Xiu said indignantly, "Xixi already mentioned she’s allergic to alcohol, why still do this?"

Lu Qinghe scolded, "Shut up!"

Ning Xixi coughed a few times, jumped off the bed, and in her clear, starry eyes shimmered a sadness that made Ning Jingshen’s breath catch.

Turns out in the years he ignored Ning Xixi, she had already grown into such a stunningly beautiful girl, just like her mother.

"Xixi..." Facing a billion-dollar project didn’t faze Ning Jingshen, but now he felt somewhat at a loss, "Sorry, Daddy didn’t know you were allergic to alcohol..."

Ning Xixi sniffled, trembling as she spoke, "Do you know how much I envy those kids whose parents pick them up? Do you know how much I wished you would look at me once when I was sick? Do you know how embarrassing it is to be asked if you don’t have a mom or dad?"

Ning Jingshen, "Xixi..."

"You don’t know, you don’t know anything." Ning Xixi tilted her face up, smiling with arched eyebrows, "My growth, you’ve missed many years. I was always scared, scared I wasn’t being a good daughter, scared my naivety would burden you, scared my willfulness would annoy you, scared my rebellion would hurt you, scared I wasn’t good enough, not worthy of the Ning surname."

"But now, I finally understand, that the bond between people cannot be forced. Whether it’s love, friendship, or kinship.

I don’t want the Ning surname anymore, I don’t want to be your daughter anymore. It’s not that you don’t want me, but me, I don’t want you as a father anymore!"

Ning Jingshen’s face showed disbelief, were these words really spoken by his well-behaved daughter?

Lu Qinghe already had prejudices against Ning Xixi, and now had an even lower opinion of her.

Was it necessary to make such a fuss after just a few words?

What, allergy to alcohol could lead to death? Isn’t she standing here just fine right now?

"No matter what, Jingshen is your father! Don’t be too excessive!" Lu Qinghe sternly admonished, Ning Xixi turned her head, smiling warmly and amiably at her, "May I ask who you are?"

"I’m your mom!" Lu Qinghe was about to explode with anger at her attitude!

"Sorry, I only have one mom, and she’s in heaven." Ning Xixi spoke very fast, swiftly followed by a slap aimed at Lu Qinghe, "This slap, I! Am! Giving! It! Back! To! You!"
