Chapter 1297
Finally, after much effort, it was back to being the calmly restrained good girl.
But it was all in vain; she opened her mouth and tried to slip away, once again unconsciously exposing the truest form of her heart.
“Daddy, it occurs to me that there is another very important matter over at Culture City that must be completed today, and I would like to go back first, would that be all right with you?”
When Siji spoke, he was frank and fearless, but after he finished, he looked at Fu Shenyan’s shrewd eyes like an eagle vulture and immediately dropped his armour, his aura gradually extinguished.
Even I was startled by Fu Shen Yan’s eyes, thinking that there was some kind of misunderstanding between this father and daughter, so I hurriedly got up and took Fu Shen Yan’s arm to avoid losing control, “Say what you have to say, don’t scare the child.”
The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things.
One second, two seconds …… Four Seasons finally lost the battle, and with a bitter face, put her head down, her eyebrows shrouded in the gloom behind her.
“When did you know?” Fu Shen Yan asked coldly.
“Knew what?” With a puzzled look on my face, I glanced at Four Seasons and then back at him, still coming up empty.
Four Seasons buried his head even lower and intentionally changed the subject, “I don’t know what you mean father, if the elders have finished paying their respects, I really want to go back first, the clubhouse just had an accident yesterday, I don’t want an accident to happen in Culture City too, please promise.”
“Already here, are you going to continue to be stubborn?” Fu Shen Yan was unrelenting, clearly not intending to just let Four Seasons go.
Although he felt a little aggressive, it seemed that things were not so simple, so I did not stop.
But Four Seasons knew exactly what I could do for Fu Shen Yan, and seeing that he was unable to convince him, she had another plan to start with me.
“Mummy, Culture City and the Club is my business, you will support me, right?”
“Of course.” I nodded without hesitation, froze for a moment after responding and added, “But your father is not an unreasonable person, seeing how serious he is, maybe he really has something to say, while the company is important, family bonding is the priority, listen to what Daddy has to say first, okay?”
Four Seasons frowned even deeper at her words, she knew that there was no convincing us.
I was so upset to see the child suffer so much that I urged Fu Shen Yan to hurry up and ask questions so as to end the awkward atmosphere, “You’re always like this lately, talking halfway, although Four Seasons is independent, but not yet an adult, you don’t treat her the way you treat those business people, guessing around is also troublesome, just say it plainly.”
Fu Shenyan’s eyes were slightly averted, as if to test my words.
But it obviously didn’t work, he spoke again or coldly, without any warmth at all.
Fu Shen Yan pointed to Muzi’s tombstone and said, “You really don’t know who is lying in here?”
The four seasons’ expression was unbearable, silent and frozen for a few seconds, then bowed violently towards us, “I’m sorry daddy and mommy, I have to go back to the capital!”
After saying that, he turned around and walked away, his steps getting faster and faster.
A second before he almost ran up, Fu Shen Yan raised his voice and looked at his back and said loudly, “Cheng Jun Yu didn’t have to leave, no one had to leave!”
The words were videotaped, and the Four Seasons’ feet stopped in their tracks, stopping where they were but not turning around.
Fu Shen Yan took a deep breath, and in the quiet cemetery, the man’s magnetic voice was vaguely mixed with a hint of helplessness.
“Just because there is no that blood relationship, so your mother no matter how good she does, you act as if you are, and that person, just to go to a place far away from you, but you repeatedly lose your temper, Shen Jishu, you really ask your heart without shame?”
Chapter 1298
“Fu Shen Yan!” Worried that he will be the year and things, I subconsciously pulled him a hand, snapped? “You know what you’re talking about!”
After saying that, my brain went blank for two seconds before I reacted violently and looked at Four Seasons in dismay, asking, “Do you …… really know?”
Fu ShenYan never said anything that he was not sure of, and the meaning of what he just said was obviously based on the premise that Four Seasons knew about his life.
Without waiting for Four Seasons to answer, Fu Shen Yan spoke up again, reminding, “If you still acknowledge us as your mum and dad, be honest.”
His attitude was too strong, and if it had been in the past, I would have taken the initiative to confront him on Four Seasons’ side, but in this situation, I could only frown and wait for things to develop with worry.
Luckily, Four Seasons is pure in nature and knowing that we had no intention of harming her, she was good enough to reveal the secret she had kept hidden in her heart.
“Two years ago, at the university entrance dance, Mr Chen accompanied me and everyone who saw us thought he was my father; once upon a time I had never examined our looks closely, but after that day, the seed of doubt was planted in my heart.”
As if feeling overwhelmed, the Four Seasons ended abruptly at this point.
The details that followed are predictable.
With a strong talent for mathematical logic, she began to think back to the days when she had been inseparable from Cheng Junyu, and all the events that had once been labelled as “the care of a benefactor” were replaced with a better name – the hidden love of a father.
The silence of the cemetery seemed to engulf everything, and the three of us, standing in front of Muzi’s grave, were silent, not knowing what to say.
It was only after a long time that I managed to settle down and try to look calm so that I could talk calmly with the Four Seasons, “How much do you know?”
After thinking about it, I felt it was inappropriate and said instead, “Tell me and your father what you know.”
I believe that with his intelligence and cleverness, Four Seasons has the means to find out the truth, but I cannot rule out the possibility that Cheng Junyu is a villain and has turned black and white upside down, so in order to untie the knot, we must know the real story.
Four Seasons only shook his head lightly at his words and said, “I just took my teacher’s hair and my own and did a paternity test, that’s all, even my teacher didn’t know that I already knew that he was my real father.”
“Is that all?” Inwardly, he breathed a sigh of relief that things were in a much better state than he had imagined.
“That’s all.” Four Seasons repeated my words and continued, “There must have been a reason why both Sensei and you all kept it from me, and I didn’t dare to make a big effort to check for fear of worrying you.”
“And now we’re not worried?” Fu Shen Yan threw out a sentence coldly, each word carrying a thrown rebuke.
I can understand Fu Shenyin’s feelings, he was swayed by his bloodline and could not help himself several times, and now the four seasons are going to follow his old path, for the sake of Cheng Junyu, change his former closeness to us and close himself off, how can he not feel pain.
“Let me talk to the child.” I was so concerned about Fu’s emotions that I deliberately softened my voice in the hope that it would have some calming effect.
Luckily, he still gave me the benefit of the doubt and voluntarily turned around, stepping aside and giving the time to me and the Four Seasons.
Looking at his broad back, I felt a lot more at ease, and when I turned my head and saw Four Seasons’ sullen face, I was in no hurry to ask questions.
After staring at Muzi’s picture for two seconds, I bent over and sat down on the next step, as if I were shoulder to shoulder with Muzi.
In this way, it was as if Muzi was really right there with me, and I couldn’t help but smile heartily, looking down at the flat inscription and saying to myself, “This daughter of yours is nothing like you, so good at hiding things that even I’m in the dark.”
The four seasons just stood quietly to one side without any reaction, except that her clear eyes kept turning, proving that she was thinking.
Seeing this, I adjusted my tone again to be more targeted, hoping to get her attention, “I’ve done such a poor job as an adoptive mother that my child is too afraid to call you mother in front of me, in a big way, I’m a failure, aren’t I Muzi?”
Four Seasons finally stopped being indifferent and murmured soothingly, “It’s not like that mummy, you treat me well, it’s me ……”
She seemed so distressed that words could hardly express the state of mind she was in at the moment and could only stop talking.
After so many years of treating her like my own, how could I feel any better when she was sad?
