Chapter 637: Chapter 635: Kind Father 14
Ah Chen was no longer worried about Li Feiwei being bullied and agreed to the matter, first letting the driver take her home, as it was already not far from there.
Within ten minutes, the car arrived at the base of Ah Chen’s apartment block.
Ah Chen pointed to the medicine in the bag: "Remember to apply it when you go back, don’t ruin your face."
"I will, thanks for your concern, senior. You’re so kind." Watching Ah Chen’s figure, Li Feiwei took out his phone to look at his face, which indeed had several bruises and purplish marks.
He must never let anyone hit his face again, it’s too ugly, a chill flashed in his eyes.
The driver inexplicably shivered, but didn’t suspect Li Feiwei of acting strangely.
Li Feiwei, seated in the back, eagerly took out the medicine and began applying it.
Soon his expression turned cold, how could he forget to ask for the senior’s contact information?
Fortunately, tomorrow is not the weekend, so I’ll ask at school tomorrow.
But there’s still another night to endure, and he couldn’t help but feel a bit restless inside.
When Ah Chen got home, Ran Zhengfeng hadn’t returned yet, which was expected.
Just then, Zhuo Qiaoqing sent a text message to Ah Chen.
Zhuo Qiaoqing: Did your dad come back?
Zhuo Qiaoqing only remembered in the afternoon that today was Wei Yue’s birthday, afraid her daughter would be at a disadvantage. But it was so late, afraid her daughter was asleep, so she sent the message.
As they talked every day, and she was picked up and dropped off for school, Zhuo Qiaoqing didn’t feel her daughter was in any danger. How could she know that the world has unpredictable accidents, and even less did she expect Ran Zhengfeng could watch his daughter step out of the car without caring. Even less expected that just this one time actually led to an incident.
There are simply too many unpredictable things in this world.
Ah Chen: No.
Ah Chen: This afternoon, Dad wanted to take me to the hospital, take me to the mall to buy a gift for her. I didn’t want to go, refused, let him drop me off home first, but he said he had promised Wei Yue to drive straight to the hospital, so I took the opportunity to get off the car.
The Commissioner hadn’t told Zhuo Qiaoqing about these things or had even blurred the memory of the day.
Until Zhuo Qiaoqing’s death, the Commissioner never disclosed what had actually happened on that day. So, those who were uninformed outside only thought she was acting out of line because of some trivial matter, and even sympathized with Ran Zhengfeng for having such a wayward and disobedient daughter.
But according to memory, Zhuo Qiaoqing should have had some guesses about the Commissioner’s ordeal, even if she couldn’t be sure, perhaps it was a mother’s intuition. She indirectly asked several times, but it was a pity the Commissioner didn’t want to recall that day, and her voice was sharp every time, so Zhuo Qiaoqing dared not push too hard, only able to focus all her attention on her.
But too much happened afterwards and she still couldn’t save the Commissioner.
If Zhuo Qiaoqing had lived longer and been able to stay with the Commissioner, maybe things would have changed in the future.
The external public opinion was really too harsh, making many people know the mother and daughter, also affecting Zhuo Qiaoqing’s work, making their days difficult.
Various events followed, consuming Zhuo Qiaoqing’s energy and life, causing her to pass away early.
In fact, the Commissioner also hated herself, hated herself for drowning in pain at that time, forgetting to care for and love her mom. If she could have let go a bit, taken her mom away from that place, maybe everything would have been different.
Zhuo Qiaoqing saw Ah Chen’s reply, feeling a bit sleepy initially, but instantly waking up, anger surging within her, she hadn’t expected Ran Zhengfeng cared so little for his daughter’s safety for Wei Yue, she had overestimated him. She quickly dialed Ah Chen: "Did you get home safely?"
"Of course I’ve safely returned home, mom, no need to worry," Ah Chen replied.
Zhuo Qiaoqing felt a relief in her heart, but at this moment couldn’t help feeling disgust towards Ran Zhengfeng: "Did your dad ask if you got home before?"
Ah Chen hesitated for a moment, just about to speak, but Zhuo Qiaoqing spoke: "Got it, wait till mom gets back, need to handle something first, will call you back in a bit."
Five minutes later, Zhuo Qiaoqing called again: "Mom has already talked with Teacher Yun next door, starting tomorrow morning, you’ll ride with Teacher Yun to school and back, she will come to call you in the morning, she leaves at..."
Zhuo Qiaoqing realized deeply how unreliable Ran Zhengfeng was, luckily her daughter was alright.
Though it’s already safe now, there’s always a chance, if something happened, regret wouldn’t catch up in time, thinking of this made her panic a bit.
What was Ran Zhengfeng doing? Not sending his daughter home, not checking if she had returned home afterwards, utterly lacking.
She had no expectations left for this person.
After talking with Ah Chen, Zhuo Qiaoqing didn’t plan to let it go like this, she dialed Ran Zhengfeng.
Ran Zhengfeng was just walking out of the hospital, surprised to see a call from Zhuo Qiaoqing, since she hadn’t spoken to him since taking students to a competition, maybe her anger had subsided? In reality, their relationship should have been good all these years, so how could a divorce happen over some small matters.
Ran Zhengfeng seemingly forgot all the unhappiness, picked up the call, his voice gentle: "Qiaoqing, why call at this time? Is everything okay out of town?"
But what followed wasn’t the gentle greeting from his wife, instead it was Zhuo Qiaoqing’s angry voice: "Ran Zhengfeng, are you at the hospital? You are celebrating Wei Yue’s birthday, aren’t you?"
"Qiaoqing, birthdays come once a year, and you’re fussing over this too? Did Chenchen tell you about this?" Besides that, Ran Zhengfeng couldn’t think of anything else.
Zhuo Qiaoqing was furious and laughed bitterly, what a Ran Zhengfeng, not worrying about his daughter’s safety, yet believing his daughter complained to her.
"If my daughter had calmly complained to me, do you think I would just be calling you now?"
If it were the afternoon, she wouldn’t just call Ran Zhengfeng, she would also call Wei Yue, this time she really couldn’t control her rage.
Thankfully, Chenchen was alright.
She wanted to return and immediately divorce Ran Zhengfeng, but she was still a teacher, needed to be responsible for the students. If she left now, it might affect the students participating in the competition.
Thankfully Yun Xin was trustworthy; with her watching, Chenchen should be fine.
"Ran Zhengfeng, did you really feel at ease letting Chenchen go home alone today afternoon??"
Ran Zhengfeng felt guilty: "Didn’t Chenchen make it home? And it’s so safe now, nothing would happen."
"Ha," Zhuo Qiaoqing sneered, burst out swearing, "bullshit! How many girls got into trouble under such circumstances? You just don’t care about your daughter, if you cared, at this point, why haven’t you made a call to ask or check if she got home? Ran Zhengfeng, I truly regret it."
"Think carefully, when I get back, we’ll divorce. You can then live openly with Wei Yue, recognize her as your daughter, my Chenchen doesn’t need you!"
Without letting Ran Zhengfeng speak more, Zhuo Qiaoqing hung up, her eyes red with anger.
Ran Zhengfeng felt a bit angry too, after returning home, he knocked on Ah Chen’s door, but Ah Chen didn’t respond.
Maybe due to some anger, the next day Ran Zhengfeng didn’t prepare breakfast.
"Grab something to eat at school later," he said.
Ah Chen replied, and as the father and daughter stepped out, Ah Chen received a call from Teacher Yun, smiling: "I’m just heading out, planning to meet Teacher Yun, okay, I’ll wait for you at the door."
Ran Zhengfeng was startled, what did it mean?
"Mom said Teacher Yun will take me to and from school recently," Ah Chen explained.
Right then, Teacher Yun opened the door, smiled at Ran Zhengfeng, took Ah Chen into the elevator, with a teasing face: "Chenchen, let’s go."
Only then did Ran Zhengfeng snap back, following them in, looking not very happy.
