“Did he ever ntion to you?” Luo Xi’s voice suddenly beca gentle, as if the softest part of her heart was revealed.
Everyone thought Luo Xi still resented Bai Longfei, but they overlooked one thing. Where did this resentnt co from? In fact, the more she resented him, the deeper her love was, and this love that couldn’t be expressed had beco llow wine after a long ti of ferntation. Opening it, people would only care about its wonderful aroma, not the process of brewing it...
“I have never seen my dad...” said Bai Xiaofei with a trace of sadness. This was his regret for more than 20 years. He had never seen his biological parents, and the only thing he had was so rumors about his father. As for who his mother was, Bai Xiaofei had never heard a word from anyone...
“This cruel man. Even if he abandoned , how could he forsake his own son?!” Luo Xi bitterly complained, but this complaint wasn’t pure.
“Aunt Luo, you misunderstood. I haven’t seen my dad not because he abandoned , but because he died when I was a baby...”
As soon as Bai Xiaofei finished, Luo Xi froze and then disbelief filled her face.
“What did you say?!” She grew emotional as she stared intently at Bai Xiaofei.
“Aunt Luo, please calm down.” Bai Xiaofei could understand Luo Xi’s reaction. The news that a person she had waited for decades was dead was like a bolt from the blue.
It took a long ti before Luo Xi finally accepted that fact. The expression on her face changed again and again until it settled on sorrow.
“Did he... leave anything behind?” There was a hint of expectation in her tone. Luo Xi just wanted to hear that Bai Longfei had left words of apology or regret or sothing related to her.
However, Bai Xiaofei really couldn’t lie to a senior who had been waiting for decades on such an issue, even if lying might make her feel better...
“My dad was seriously injured at that ti. After making arrangents for , he died before he could say anything else. I don’t even know my mother’s na...” Bai Xiaofei tactfully explained, hoping that the truth wouldn’t hurt too badly. When it ca to this matter, his tone was exceptionally solemn. Having one’s parents dying during childhood was not an easy topic.
“Seriously injured?! Who did it?! How could anyone hurt him?!!” Three questions were blurted out in succession with surprise and anger. Luo Xi, who had barely cald down, grew emotional again.
It was her limit to accept Bai Longfei’s death. She must find out the details of why he had been fatally injured. She was allowed to unleash her revenge on Bai Longfei, but she would not let anyone else hurt him! Even if it had already happened, she vowed to pursue it to the end!
“I don’t know. It’s also why I ca out. I want to find that heinous scum who ruined my family!” Bai Xiaofei’s voice was soaked with hatred and his expression distorted. The animosity over the murder of one’s father was never-ending!
Getting another disappointing answer, Luo Xi fell into a long silence. In the end, she feebly backed up a few steps and collapsed as if her soul had been drained out of her body...
Bai Xiaofei quickly caught her and helped her sit down.
After taking a deep breath to calm her emotions a little, Luo Xi asked softly, “Do you know why I brought you here?” Her eyes sparkled with mories.
“Aunt Luo, I have no idea. Does it have sothing to do with my father?” Bai Xiaofei asked.
However, Luo Xi did not give a direct answer and began to tell a story instead.
“This is the place where he confessed to . At that ti, I was number one on the Blossom Ranking. Your father used a sloppy excuse to invite here, and then confessed to hastily...”
Lost in mories, Luo Xi’s lips curved up into a sweet smile as if the scene she was describing had happened just yesterday.
“So I made a bet with him that as long as he could get first place in the competition between faculties, I would give him a chance. Later, this beca a place that witnessed us becoming an item... That was the happiest ti in my life. Longfei always found ways to make happy and I often danced for him here...”
“Unfortunately, those good tis didn’t last long. When we entered our fourth year, differences arose between us. I wanted to remain in Starnet and have a stable life, but he wanted to travel the world and enjoy the scenery of this continent.”
“In the end, he left, and I stayed. A cold war beca a real separation. I don’t rember how I lived through that ti, but since then, looking forward to his news every day had beco a habit that I spent the most ti on.”
“I have always naively thought that he’d co back as long as he has experienced enough of the outside world, so I have been waiting and never gone out to find him. But who could have thought that fate played such a joke? The wait lasted for several decades.”
Luo Xi laughed bitterly.
“Moreover, it ended not with his return, but the news of his death...”
Grief overtook her as she looked at Bai Xiaofei seriously with tears in her eyes.
“Say, am I very ridiculous, very pitiful?”
In the face of her sudden question, Bai Xiaofei was stunned before he fell into contemplation.
He didn’t have a rich romantic experience. At this point, his love life had been quite smooth and all the people he had t were bent on being nice to him. Therefore, he could only give an answer from objective analysis.
“I don’t have much experience, but I don’t think you are ridiculous or pitiful at all. From my personal point of view, I admire you very much!” This reply ca from the bottom of his heart without any falsehood. As far as the stories he had heard were concerned, there weren’t many people willing to stick to their hearts like Luo Xi.
“You an it?” asked Luo Xi as Bai Xiaofei’s words surprised her.
“Absolutely, and I think it’s my dad who owes you,” Bai Xiaofei confird and followed with sothing that touched the softest spot in her heart.
After waiting for so many years, wasn’t this what she waited for? Although it didn’t co from Bai Longfei, it seed to Luo Xi that Bai Xiaofei represented his father when saying this.
“In this case, are you willing to repay this debt in his stead?”
Upon Luo Xi’s words, Bai Xiaofei was dumbstruck.
What kind of turn is this?!! You can actually make the son pay for his father’s debt for this kind of affair?!!
