Chapter 731: Pseudo-Truths 1
From that moment on, Xia Yinian realized why her position in the family was so low.And from that moment on, she even felt as if she was the only person left in this world.
Dad’s words reminded Xia Yinian of his kindness towards her.
Her heart felt a bit sour, but there was also a hint of sweetness.
"Mm." Xia Yinian pursed her lips and nodded slightly.
Since whatever happens to her couldn’t be changed by dad, she didn’t want to make him worry.
Xia Liyuan remained silent, so Xia Yinian added, "Don’t worry, dad, Brother Ling Qian is very nice to me."
This was the truth, regardless of whether her engagement with Brother Ling Qian was real or not.
"That’s good," said Xia Liyuan softly.
Looking at him, Xia Yinian always felt that Dad was a bit strange today, but she couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was odd.
Forget it, if he wants to speak, he will definitely say something. Perhaps there really isn’t anything special, maybe I’m just overthinking?
The room fell silent for a while, slightly awkward.
"By the way, Dad, Sister Chuxue..."
Xia Yinian hadn’t finished speaking when she was abruptly interrupted.
"Chuxue was picked up by us, just like you." Suddenly, a figure appeared at the door.
He Shuya strode in.
Her gaze swept over Xia Yinian and then she glared fiercely at Xia Liyuan.
Looking at this woman, Xia Yinian slightly furrowed her brows.
Chuxue was picked up, why is He Shuya so angry?
Moreover, it seemed that her anger was not directed at her, but at Dad sitting in front of her.
Before Xia Yinian could sort this out, He Shuya’s angry voice rang out again.
"Aren’t you supposed to be having a video conference? What are you still doing here?"
He Shuya waited for Xia Liyuan until he stood up before she turned and left.
Xia Liyuan gave Xia Yinian a look, still giving off a vibe of wanting to say something but unable.
Xia Yinian was certain that Dad definitely had something to say to her today, but He Shuya had interrupted him.
"Nian Nian, rest well..."
"Are you still not leaving?" He Shuya turned her head and interrupted Xia Liyuan’s words.
Xia Liyuan gave her a glance, looked back at Xia Yinian, then turned and left.
Until Dad had closed her door, Xia Yinian still couldn’t react.
It was normal for He Shuya to dislike her, but not allowing Dad to even speak a word to her, wasn’t that a bit too much?
Moreover, Dad’s demeanor today was clearly not right.
No matter how fierce He Shuya was, she rarely commanded her husband in front of others.
Anyway, the behavior of these two was really too strange.
...
Having left the Feng Family and returned to the hotel, He Shuya maintained an unhappy expression.
Only after entering the hotel room and closing the door did she throw her purse onto the table, huffing coldly.
"Why did you go to see that wretched girl? Are you still thinking about that matter? She can’t possibly be a blood relation of the Feng Family, why don’t you believe it?"
"But our family only adopted Nian Nian, if not her, then who could it be?" Xia Liyuan said in a deep voice.
"It definitely isn’t that bastard!" He Shuya was even more disdainful.
"How many times have I said, Nian Nian is my adopted daughter, not a bastard!" Xia Liyuan became unusually agitated every time this topic was brought up.
"I know you care about that wretched girl, just like you cared for her mother, do you really think I don’t know anything?"
"Unfortunately, she left not knowing who was the father of that bastard, apart from leaving you a burden, what else has she given you?"
