"I’ll go make so dishes, Tongtong, why don’t you stay and eat!" He ijuan said, "It’s been a long ti since our family had a al together!"
"Sure! I’ll help you!" She was usually busy and indeed didn’t have ti to accompany them. After today’s incident, she genuinely wanted to spend more ti with them.
Ji Guoqiang still looked a bit uncomfortable. Lu Beichen spoke up, "Father-in-law, let help you back to your room to rest!"
He took the initiative to support Ji Guoqiang, his slender fingers resting on his own arm. Ji Guoqiang felt very uneasy but allowed him to help for the sake of face.
The room was in the innermost area, large like their house in the Ancient Garden.
As soon as Ji Guoqiang lay down, Lu Beichen went over to lock the door from the inside, then walked back and stood by the bed. Ji Guoqiang also sat up, leaning against the headboard, and asked, "Do you have sothing to say to ? I certainly have sothing to ask you!"
Lu Beichen nodded, "Father-in-law, please go ahead."
Ji Guoqiang scrutinized him up and down and said, "I still find it unbelievable! Tongtong and you had Nian Nian? That child is indeed adorable, just like Tongtong was when she was a child, sweet-mouthed and very likable."
Lu Beichen just listened quietly.
"You married Tongtong for this reason, so was Tongtong’s car accident related to you?" Ji Guoqiang asked directly, staring fiercely at Lu Beichen, as if ready to fight him if he said yes.
Lu Beichen suddenly sat at the edge of the bed, slightly bowed his head, and said softly, "To be honest, I don’t know why she had the car accident."
Ji Guoqiang was shocked, "How is that possible?"
"Do you think, with how much I care for Tongtong, I would only want the child and not her? Back when you were hospitalized, I was willing to threaten your life just to marry her, for what reason?" Lu Beichen said, "At that ti, I’m sorry, but I didn’t an not to save you."
So, was what the attending doctor said back then true, but the one interested in his daughter wasn’t so old man but Lu Beichen?
"I had the fortune of eting Tongtong in Paris back then. She told her na was Tong Nian, called Nian Nian..." Lu Beichen chuckled softly, "If she hadn’t deceived , if you hadn’t hidden her for five years, I might have found her much earlier."
"Tongtong has suffered greatly. Since she has forgotten what happened in Paris, don’t bring it up again. Keep a close watch on her, don’t let her be discovered by others."
This warning was still swirling in Ji Guoqiang’s mind!
Lu Beichen suddenly stood up, stepped back, and bowed to Ji Guoqiang, "Sorry, back then I was indeed drugged and forced on Tongtong, leading to Nian Nian. And because of so misunderstandings, when Tongtong ca to find at that ti, I didn’t pay attention to her. If I had known she was pregnant then, I wouldn’t have treated her like that. As for... how she later got into a car accident, I’m unclear."
"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding?" Ji Guoqiang asked, "If it weren’t for how good you treat Tongtong now, how could I believe you didn’t really want to abandon her back then?!"
Ji Guoqiang was sowhat agitated, Lu Beichen pondered, "Back then, I was arrogant and reckless, indeed... reflecting on myself now, even if Tongtong had told she was pregnant, I might not have believed it."
Ji Guoqiang’s expression worsened, Lu Beichen finally spoke, "So, I’ve always feared telling Tongtong the truth. So, even if she doesn’t know the truth, as long as I’m good to her, I hope you’ll believe , Father-in-law!"
