"Daddy hopes you can understand how Daddy felt when he lost his beloved wife and son. Daddy was in despair and lost control of his emotions, so Daddy was heartless and said those heartless words to you. If you blame Daddy, Daddy will apologize to you. "
Lan Qian held onto Lan's hand guiltily, his grey eyes filled with tears, as he seriously stared at Lan Dao.
Lan shook his head fiercely, hugged Lan Qian and cried bitterly, "Father, how could I blame you? You did not do anything wrong, I am not fit to be your daughter, I am not fit to be your daughter! "
"Father is old and has many things that he has forgotten. If I don't look at the pictures, I would almost be unable to recall the appearance of your brother and mother."
Lan Qing sobbed. "I never forgot my eldest brother and mother. I've let them down. I'm a si
er of the Lan family ?"
"Foolish child, you should have forgotten what happened in the past. When I returned to my father's side, my father did not want to be left with a miserable sight of his children not by his side while he was still in his old age. "
Lan Qian emotionally patted Lan Lan's back. "Together with Father, forget about what happened in the past.
Forget everything? A new life?
At this moment, the blue light was shaking violently.
She had thought that her entire life would be spent in the bottomless abyss of guilt and remorse. However, the forgiveness, tolerance and hope from her father had given her a new hope and yearning for the future.
With swollen and blue eyes, he looked at Lan Qian hesitantly, "Father, can we really forget about the past and start a new life?"
Lan Qian patted her head lovingly, "Daddy, just tell me when I've lied to you. Daddy say yes, that's fine."
Lan looked at Lan Qian and was so happy that tears fell like rain.
Being pulled to the living room by Huo Yaoting, Ye Xi shook off his hand and anxiously looked towards the bedroom door.
It had happened so suddenly, so unexpectedly.
She never would have thought that Grandpa Lan Shan was actually her mother's biological father, her ? Grandfather.
Thus, she and her mother finally had someone close to them!
He didn't understand that the joy in his heart was mostly, but he still felt an unreal uneasiness towards what had happened.
Ye Xi's heart was beating really fast. From the moment she walked out of the bedroom, all of her attention was on Xu Qiu and Lan Qian, who were in the bedroom.
Huo Yaoting sat on the sofa with a cold expression on his face. His features were cold, and his eyes, which were as deep as a thousand-year pond, were fixed on the little woman who was leaning against the sofa a few rows away from him.
From the moment he appeared in the apartment, this little girl had been avoiding him intentionally or unintentionally, rejecting his approach. However, she had been avoiding him and rejecting him, causing him to not be able to find the source.
Narrowing his eyes, Huo Yaoting stood up and walked straight towards Ye Xi.
Ye Xi's face turned pale as a huge black curtain gradually covered her body. Without thinking, she stood up and walked towards her bedroom.
His arm was suddenly grabbed from behind, causing Ye Xi's heart to tremble. He clenched his fists tightly, not wanting to turn around.
A gloomy and cold Qi came from behind, causing Ye Xi's back to tremble from the cold, and he subconsciously shrunk his shoulders.
A long arm reached out from behind her, grabbed her by the other shoulder, and pulled her into his wide embrace.
Ye Xi frowned, he pursed his lips and struggled for a bit.
"Xiao Xi, don't make me angry!" Huo Yaoting held her tightly, and his other arm immediately wrapped around her slender waist.
His waist was so close to the sturdy body behind him that even the wind couldn't pass through. Ye Xi's breathing became hurried uncontrollably, this kind of intimate distance made her want to dodge even more!
However, the warning still echoed in his ears. He was worried that would fly into a rage recklessly, making him worry. Although Ye Xi wasn't happy, he didn't move anymore.
His heavy breathing fell behind his ears and his steady heartbeat could be heard through the rhythmic vibrations on his back. His broad embrace was no longer as cold and unyielding as before, it was warm to the point of making people fall in love with him.
Ye Xi's tensed body slowly relaxed, and in the end, she simply allowed her back to lean on him.
Sensing that she was no longer rejecting him, Huo Yaoting tightened the grip around her waist and held her horizontally.
Ye Xi was slightly surprised, her two small white hands frantically grabbed onto his black colored shirt, as a pair of large eyes that were as pure as mercury resentfully stared at the man's face that was brimming with a ruthless aura.
Huo Yaoting did not look at her.
In this world, the thing that he could not tolerate the most was that the little girl in his arms would hide from him and reject him!
Sitting on the sofa, Huo Yaoting circled Ye Xi.
Ye Xi felt awkward. Right now, it was not their home, and it was not just the two of them.
Carefully raising his head to look at that person's face, he had an ugly and furious expression, causing Ye Xi to immediately retract his gaze. He lowered his head, not daring to say anything as he wanted that person to put her down.
"Raise your head!" Huo Yaoting stared at Ye Xi and ordered.
Ye Xi pouted, and lowered his head instead!
"Ye Xi!" Huo Yaoting roared.
Ye Xi's heart shrank.
It was the first time he had called her by name.
His anger had somehow reached the top of his head.
Ye Xi suddenly raised her head, her small face angry as she glared at Huo Yaoting.
Seeing that, Huo Yaoting was completely enraged, he pinched her chin and bellowed: What are you angry about?
What was he angry about?
Ye Xi's face stiffened as he lowered his head, "Nothing!"
What was she angry about?
Han Yuxue was the one who stupidly closed the door, what did it have to do with him?!
Thinking about that, Ye Xi raised her head and proactively hugged onto his neck, her small face still showing signs of impatience, "Hubby, I'm sorry."
"?" Huo Yaoting stared at her face, and then, after a long while, the hand under her chin loosened slightly, and pulled up half of her face. He then asked with a gentle voice, "What happened today?"
Ye Xi's face changed, "Nothing happened."
"Is it related to me?" Huo Yaoting ignored her words and continued to ask.
"No!" Ye Xi's eyes flashed, and she lowered her head, trying to avoid him.
"It seems like it has something to do with me!" Huo Yaoting sneered, "Speak, what is it?"
"I already said it, don't ask anymore." Ye Xi said in a low voice.
Although his relationship with Han Yuxue had never been on good terms with him, she did not want his relationship with Han Yuxue to get even worse because of this matter.
After all, she had seen it with her own eyes that night, and he had almost strangled Han Yuxue to death!
If he knew about this, she couldn't imagine him doing anything that would make him lose his mind!
Right now, she also hated Han Yuxue, but, Han Yuxue was still his mother after all, the woman who gave him his life. She did not want him to leave a scar or regret behind because he had done something too extreme.
Furthermore, she felt grateful towards Han Yuxue, because she gave this man's life, and also because of this, that the two of them met again later on.
