Qiao Mo Feng really could not accept the fact now. When he was younger and living with his mother, those people called him weird names and bullied him for not having a father.
In short, they said all kinds of nasty things to him. At that time, he would return to his mother to ask her questions about his father like where he was, why they werenât staying together, etc. Wei Luo always lied that his father had passed away or came up with some other excuse.
If she had said it once or twice, he would not have cared much. But she kept lying to him repeatedly which made him think that his father had really passed away. Perhaps it was after he turned five years old that he decided not to ask Wei Luo about his father ever again.
However, heâd feel disappointed and lonely every time he saw another child being spoiled by his father. Did his mother know about this?
Now, she dared to come to him and tell him that his father was alive when he was finally living well.
Qiao Mo Feng really could not accept this fact.
âSo? What do you think after knowing this news?â Qiao Tian Chang softly asked Qiao Mo Feng.
The relationship between them was more often like a couple of old friends that had forgotten about time rather than a father-son relationship.
Qiao Mo Feng looked down. When he lifted his head, he said in a very serious manner, âFather, I canât accept this. No matter what their reasons are, I just cannot accept it.â That man was not around when he needed his father. Now that man suddenly appeared in front of him when he did not need a father, and she actually used this way to introduce him to his father. What were they thinking!?
Qiao Tian Chang looked at Qiao Mo Feng helplessly, âFengâer, firstly, I wonât intervene in your decision, but some things are not as simple as you think. Try to listen to what they have to say, maybe you will know more.â
Qiao Mo Feng was silent for a moment, but then he shook his head firmly, âFather, I donât want to see them. Not a single one of them.â
âThen what is it that you want to do?â Qiao Mo Fengâs decision was beyond Qiao Tian Changâs expectations, but it was also somewhat expected.
âI want to go to the Martial Hall.â
Qiao Tian Chang frowned. He looked at Qiao Mo Feng and asked, âAre you sure about this? Have you thought it through? You have to pass through various levels before you can leave once youâve entered the Martial Hall.â
âYes, Iâm certain.â Qiao Mo Feng nodded.
âNo backing out?â
âNo, father. In fact, I know about it. I know everything about my mother. I am afraid she came back to see me only because of that man, right?â Qiao Mo Feng said firmly as he looked straight into Qiao Tian Changâs eyes.
âYou know?â
âYes, I know. Iâve heard it from other people. They said that my mother can only live until thirty-five.â Qiao Mo Feng looked down at the ground with a calm expression but this actually made Qiao Tian Chang worry.
âFengâer, she...â
âFather, I think I know what you want to say, but I know what kind of a person my mother is. No matter if itâs about her or about my biological father, she took it into her own hands to make my decisions. She never considered my feelings or what I might want.â Qiao Mo Feng was no longer the ignorant child he used to be. After all, he had been through so many things.
âI respect your decision.. Go tell your mother when you go back.â Qiao Tian Chang swallowed his persuasion. He felt a little helpless, looking at Qiao Mo Fengâs stubborn look.
âThank you, Father.â
âLetâs go back.â
âOkay.â
On returning, they went directly to Ning Meng Yao. When she heard that Qiao Mo Feng had decided to go to the Martial Hall at this point in time, she could not help but frown, âFengâer, are you sure?â
Qiao Mo Feng nodded conscientiously, âMother, I have clearly thought about it. I want to go to the Martial Hall to protect my younger brother and the younger siblings who have not yet been born.â
âBut your mother and father...â
âMother, I canât accept her self-righteousness. She did not come back this time for me but for that man. Am I right?â Qiao Mo Feng looked at Ning Meng Yao calmly.
Ning Meng Yao was surprised. She did not expect him to know these things.
âFengâer, you knew?â
âYes. I know that since I was separated from her and started spending time with you and father, I always think about when she would come back to see me, even if it was for the last time, but she didnât come back at all. Only that man is the most important person to her.â
