Wait for My Return (1)
Butler Wen had stayed in the Wen family for many years. He was an old hand, the trusted butler of the Wen family. He could also be called the heart of the Wen family; most of the Wen familyâs affairs were handled by him, and his heart was with the Wen family.
It wasnât that Liang Yuanqing had not tried to win over Butler Wen over the years, but that he was never successful. Gradually, he gave up.
Liang Yuanqing knew that he lost the initiative this time to Butler Wen, and all he could do was try to cover up and make the child side with him, so she wouldnât do anything that would disadvantage him.
Back then, he didnât kidnap her personally. Plus, she was still so young back then, so maybe she didnât remember.
Although it was a bit difficult, it was not impossible. A real man knew when to bend and when to stretch. As long as she didnât mention the past events, no one would know what had happened, and he would have ways to cover up the past.
Butler Wen had already gone to do the DNA test, and the results would come out in two days. Liang Yuanqing was in disarray, so he could only resort to this awful strategy to appease her first.
Liang Yuanqing cried miserably, with tears streaming down his face. âThereâs not a day that I didnât think of you... child, come here and let Dad hug you.â
Jiang Xiaoman shook her head, having a headache at the same time.
The system said, âHost, even if you go voluntarily or not, it will still end up the same way in the end. In that case, why bother?â
âShut up.â Jiang Xiaoman was annoyed.
Liang Yuanqing thought that Jiang Xiaoman was talking to him. His face reddened and he wiped his tears, trying to act like an old father who had lost his beloved daughter and found her again.
But even if he wasnât acting, he hadnât been able to sleep in the past few days due to the fear and anxiety. His haggard face was enough to make him look very sad. He looked really, really sad.
âXiaoman, I know you are still blaming me for the past, but it was an accident back then. Youâre still young, and you donât understand that adults often have many difficulties in doing things.â Liang Yuanqing said, âIf I knew you were my daughter, how could I have treated you like that? Thereâs no way that I had known, right? It was a misunderstanding, Iâve already severely punished the uncle who hurt you.â
âIâll discuss it with Grandma first.â
She always listened to Grandma.
That night, Jiang Xiaoman and Jiang Xiumei had a talk. Jiang Xiaoman thought that Grandma would definitely be furious, or at least go into a panic. Unexpectedly, Grandma didnât have any particular response.
She just stayed silent for a long time without saying anything, and then called Jiang Xing.
âXingxing, there is a situation at home, come back.â
Jiang Xiumei hadnât spoken in such a serious tone in a long time, and Jiang Xing also felt that something was wrong. He immediately set aside the matter at hand and rushed home.
On the way, Jiang Xiumei had already told Jiang Xing everything.
âXiaomanâs biological father came to our house. My eyelid was twitching before1, and I always felt uneasy. I never thought this day would come so fast.â
Jiang Xing also went silent, not knowing what to say for a while.
It wasnât until Jiang Xiumei said that Jiang Xiaomanâs biological father was Liang Yuanqing that Jiang Xing exploded.
âThat damned bastardââ He swallowed the rest of his words like a dud firework, not saying anything for a long time.
How could that bastard be Xiaomanâs biological father?
