Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ding Rong was visibly moved when she heard this and looked at Xi Cheng with teary eyes.
Ding Chen felt both mushy and disgusted from hearing this. He felt goosebumps rising on his arms.
He threw a sideways glance at Xi Cheng and muttered softly, “You’re so good with your words. It’s no wonder you managed to trick my sister back then.”
Although Ding Chen was still dissatisfied with this man, he could not change Ding Rong’s decision. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as Xi Cheng stayed in the Ding Family’s small house.
In the evening, Ding Chen went to pick Huo Tian up from school.
The mont Huo Tian and Bi Ying got into the car, they realized that Ding Chen’s face seed to be covered in a layer of frost. It was stiff and cold, and he looked a little eerie.
Huo Tian looked at Ding Chen in disdain and said unhappily, “Uncle, why are you looking like this? You look like the villain in a ghost story.”
Ding Chen glared at Huo Tian through the rearview mirror and said through gritted teeth, “You heartless brat. You’re exactly like your bastard father.”
He was clearly taking his anger out on her. Huo Tian pouted unhappily. “Uncle, don’t transfer your anger towards Dad to . I’m innocent, okay?”
She then ca back to her senses. “Have you seen Dad already? Was he too much, completely occupying Mom’s attention and excluding you? You can understand my feelings now, right…”
Huo Tian thought that Ding Chen had suffered the sa treatnt as her. She was anxious to find an ally for herself so that she would not look like a pitiful child who had been neglected by her parents at ho.
However, she did not know that the conflict between Ding Chen and Xi Cheng was not as simple as stealing her sister’s attention and making him feel neglected.
Ding Chen listened to Huo Tian’s endless complaints about Xi Cheng, but he did not mind her chattering until his ears hurt. He just let her continue…
As usual, Huo Tian wanted to pull Bi Ying back to her house for dinner, but Bi Ying waved his hand and rejected her. “Today, your family is reunited. You should have a lot to talk about. As an outsider, I won’t go over to join in. Moreover, recently, my uncle has sent a letter. He perford well in prison and has received a reduction in his sentence. He might be coming back in the next two days. I’m going ho to clean up the place and prepare to welco my uncle.”
When Ding Chen heard this news, he said in surprise, “Your uncle is going to be released from prison?”
Bi Ying smiled and nodded. “I ntioned that Uncle Ding and Auntie Ding had shown great care in my letters to him. Uncle replied that he’d treat you guys to a al after he cos out. I wonder if you guys are free?”
After saying that, Bi Ying looked at Ding Chen’s expression uneasily. He knew that his uncle was not a bad person, but he had been in prison for so many years after all. People would subconsciously look at him differently. Bi Ying was worried that Ding Chen would not be willing to be involved with his uncle.
However, Ding Chen did not hesitate for even a second. He nodded readily and said emotionally, “Back then, your uncle and I had so connections. The two of us are the bosses of our respective districts. Neither of us was convinced by the other.”
“There was once when our respective friends got into a conflict with each other in a bar. We were pulled into it and exchanged a few moves. I was thinking of finding a chance to have a good fight with your uncle, but who knew that sothing happened and he sent himself inside. Sigh… after so many years, I can’t fight anymore. Your uncle should have beco much more reliable in his ti inside as well. When the ti cos, the two of us will have a good drink. It can be considered as a way to reminisce on that period of ti.”
Hearing this, Bi Ying relaxed and smiled. “I’ll tell Uncle about this. Maybe he still rembers..”
