Chapter 1110: It’s Up to Lu Man
At the side, Xia Qingwei was smiling tearfully at Lu Man.
w.a.n.g Juhuai had told her this a few days after Lu Man and Han Zhuoli had left for their honeymoon.
At that time, w.a.n.g Juhuai was worrying by himself.
Seeing him troubled for quite some time, Xia Qingwei finally asked, “What got you so worried? Is it your job? Or your family matters?”
w.a.n.g Juhuai stared at Xia Qingwei for a long time.
“Stop worrying by yourself and say something. We’ll share the burden no matter what it is.” Xia Qingwei held w.a.n.g Juhuai’s hand. “We’re a couple now, and we’ll face any problems together.”
“I will never let you suffer. It’s something else,” w.a.n.g Juhuai said.
But hearing Xia Qingwei’s words warmed him down to his toes, his heart filling with love.
And he couldn’t help thanking Lu Qiyuan.
If he wasn’t an idi*t for letting go of Xia Qingwei, how could w.a.n.g Juhuai have gotten the chance to marry such a good woman?
“So do say what it is!” Xia Qingwei frowned. “Unless it’s something you can’t let me know about?”
“What secrets do we have between each other? There’s nothing about me that I can’t tell you. It’s just…” w.a.n.g Juhuai finally started speaking. “Do you think Man Man would call me Dad?”
Xia Qingwei was totally stunned, her tears falling immediately.
w.a.n.g Juhuai panicked. “Don’t cry! If you’re unhappy about this, then I won’t mention or think about it ever again!”
w.a.n.g Juhuai clumsily wiped away her tears, desperately trying to pacify her.
Xia Qingwei shook her head. “It’s not that I’m happy, I just never thought that… you’d be willing…”
“Never thought that you’d be willing to let Lu Man call you Dad.”
“What’s there to be unwilling about?” w.a.n.g Juhuai laughed, relieved that she was only crying over this. “What’s to cry about?”
“Man Man experienced that short period of fatherly love only in her childhood, and in the long 20 years after, it’s almost like her father didn’t even exist. Man Man and I are already touched that you’re willing to treat her well and protect her. I never thought that you are willing…”
“Sigh!” w.a.n.g Juhuai wiped away her tears. “There’s no need to be moved. Isn’t it normal for me to do this? She’s your daughter and you married me. Naturally, she’s my daughter too. Moreover, Lu Qiyuan treated her so badly, she’s better off without him. Since Lu Qiyuan didn’t want such a wonderful daughter, I will want her! And it just so happened that I don’t have children, so isn’t it all good to let Lu Man be my daughter?”
“Please stop crying.” w.a.n.g Juhuai comforted her. “Next time, not only will I protect you, I’ll also protect Lu Man. She’s my daughter. She’s w.a.n.g Juhuai’s daughter.”
Xia Qingwei nodded. “That’s great. Really great. I’ll thank you for Lu Man.”
“Thank me for what!” w.a.n.g Juhuai growled. “Don’t be so polite with me, and don’t help her thank me! I truly want to love her like my own, and it’s not for your grat.i.tude nor is it empty words to coax you.”
“I know, I spoke wrongly,” Xia Qingwei said with a smile, drying her tears herself.
“If you’re willing, then it’s up to Lu Man now.” w.a.n.g Juhuai was nervous. “Don’t know if she’s willing or not.”
