One and Only: Doting CEO's Infinite Love

Chapter 490 - 488: Secrets Forgotten by Time (VIII)

"Xiao Jinghuai, you can leave now! I can wash myself..."As the words fell, Song Song finally saw the desire in the man’s eyes and immediately realized something, "Ah! Pervert, get out, you won’t even spare someone who’s sick, bastard!"

Xiao Jinghuai realized he had lost his composure, and turning around, he took a deep breath and said, "Then take your time washing, I’ve called a doctor for you. Having a high fever requires a doctor’s examination to be assured."

He deliberately emphasized the words "high fever" as a reminder to himself not to act like a "beast."

If not for considering that she was ill, he would have...

Song Song only began to wash once she saw he had truly left, but halfway through, she started worrying about her mother.

She had been so agitated before, and said a bunch of things she couldn’t understand, not knowing how she was now.

...

In the dark room, Qiao Yanjing stood there despondently, his face bruised and utterly drenched, looking nothing like Chairman Qiao, but more like an elderly man past his fifties.

Qiao Yu stood beside him, wanting to ask what happened but hesitated to.

She had never seen her always high-spirited father looking so fragile and vulnerable.

Although unclear about what happened, she could at least guess it must have something to do with Song Song—

That damned wretch, wherever she was, chaos ensued.

"Dad, don’t scare me, what’s the matter?" Qiao Yu reached out and patted his shoulder, "Did Song Song say something to you? No matter what she said, you mustn’t believe her."

"She’s a bastard, a scoundrel. Nothing good can come out of her mouth!"

Qiao Yanjing seemed to be touched, he slowly raised his head and looked at the daughter he had doted on since childhood, "Bastard? Who told you she’s a bastard?"

"..." Qiao Yu felt a bit guilty, "This—this isn’t a secret, mom told me before, she said Song Song is the daughter of Song Xueqin and Huo Chen."

"It’s the proof of Song Xueqin’s betrayal—"

At this moment, Qiao Yanjing seemed greatly agitated, directly rushing out of the dark room’s door, staggering into the parking lot, driving away.

Helplessly, Qiao Yu could only drive to catch up.

But he drove too fast, soon, Qiao Yu lost track of him and could only call her mother at home, "Mom, dad seems emotionally disturbed. Forget it, saying it to you now is of no use, you can’t help anything."

"Hey! Yu’er you—"

Helian Sulan hadn’t finished talking when Qiao Yu hung up the phone, sitting on the sofa, her heart started to feel anxious and uneasy...

Having lived with Qiao Yanjing for years, she’s become well aware of him, nothing, no one or thing can affect his emotions.

Even in his life’s lowest moments, he appeared unperturbed.

But there was one person who just happened to be his Achilles’ heel, whenever it involved her, he would explode in a moment.

Is it the same this time?

"Helian Sulan, it’s fine, you need to stay calm, you are Mrs. Qiao, that wretch hasn’t been for a long time..."

"Sir, what’s happened?"

The servant’s surprised voice came, shocking Helian Sulan enough to knock over the teacup in her hand.

Looking towards the door, she saw Qiao Yanjing standing there with bruises on his face, immediately worried, she rushed over, "Husband, what’s happened to your face? Who hit you?"

Her hand was forcefully swung away by the man—

Helian Sulan was instantly frightened, her lips turned pale, a foreboding intuition pervading her mind.

"Yan Jing—"

Qiao Yanjing’s eyes turned red, "I ask you, what exactly happened back then!"

Helian Sulan was so frightened she almost fell to the ground, why was he bringing up the past again?
