Chapter 757: The Doting Father, Xie, Signing In! (10）
Ye Tianxin made a mocking smile upon hearing what Xie Quan said.
Even though she and Xie Qian were biologically related, they were not close to one another. Even saying that they were “close” was a little inappropriate.
Without Xie Xuning between them, they would’ve actually despised each other.
“No, you won’t. Even if my mother held me and knelt in front of you, your heart wouldn’t soften. You’re not that kind of person. You would ask my mother how she was sure that she is Xie Xuning’s daughter, wouldn’t you? You saw my mother as nothing more than a stain on my dad that you couldn’t wait to get rid of…”
Xie Qian retorted, “You are talking nonsense.”
“How is it nonsense? You know better than anyone what you thought of her back then. You wanted my mother to go away. You thought that there were so many women in this world. Without my mother, my dad would’ve definitely met and fallen in love with another woman. However, what you didn’t know was that some emotions cannot be hindered by time or s.p.a.ce.”
Xie Qian almost felt like he was looking at an illusion as he intensely stared at Ye Tianxin’s face.
Ye Tianxin didn’t appear 18 years old to him.
She was so well-composed, collected and mature for her age most of the time. She hardly lost her composure like this aside from that one time when she was at the banquet.
“You…” Xie Qian pointed at Ye Tianxin.
Ye Tianxin whispered with a smile, “You are getting angry. You are not in good health, and it’s better for you to not be so surprised. I’m worried that your heart might not be able to take it…”
Xie Qian admitted that he had done something wrong back then.
So what?
Wasn’t that also a part of human nature?
His son was so brilliant that it was easy to find a decent girl who was worthy of his family.
Why did his son have to get entangled with a female doctor from the country?
“Ye Tianxin, you have to understand that the real reason that I didn’t refuse to deny you was because you were his daughter…”
When she noticed that Xie Qian’s lips were a little dry, Ye Tianxin walked over to the table, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to Xie Qian.
“Drink some water first.”
Xie Qian snorted coldly and took the gla.s.s.
“What’s the matter? Are you scared to pick it up? Are you worried that I poisoned it?”
In response to Tianxin’s bold strategy, Xie Qian took the gla.s.s of water from Ye Tianxin’s hand, raised his head and drank it all in one go. He then said, “You wouldn’t even dare to try to poison me, would you?”
Ye Tianxin sat down on the chair next to Xie Qian and replied, “Of course not. I don’t have the guts to poison you. You’re a powerful man who can influence the capital with a snap of your fingers. My psychological threshold is not as strong as yours. After all, you managed to keep a missing person notice but refused to tell my dad for so many years. I wonder if you ever thought about that car accident when you were dreaming in the middle of the night?”
“Shut up!”
Xie Qian expression’s turned serious. He thought that Ye Tianxin spoke out of line.
Ye Tianxin smiled faintly and said, “Why should I shut up? Back then, when you saw the missing person notice, even though you knew it was my mother, you didn’t tell my dad. Instead, you concealed it.”
Xie Qian silently glared at Ye Tianxin without. Even though he didn’t want to admit it, he knew that what Ye Tianxin said was right.
She perfectly nailed what he was thinking.
Back then, he obviously knew that Ye Linlang’s death seemed fishy but never told Xie Xuning the truth.
He thought that when Xie Xuning learned about the death of Ye Linlang, he would’ve mourned her for a certain amount of time at most before recovering to his usual state.
