"Nan Jue, come here. This is the soup I've been stewing all day. Have a bowl of it before you go to the company meeting."
Chan Ka-yin smiled gently and placed a bowl of soup in front of Lê Nam Giệu.
Lê Nam Giệu's cold face softened. "You could've just asked the chef to make it. Why did you cook it yourself?" He saw Chan Ka-yin put her hand behind her back and guessed something. He quickly took her hand and looked at it carefully.
When he saw the blisters on her hand, his eyes showed a touch of pity. "You … Does it hurt?"
Chan Ka-yin shook her head. "It doesn't hurt. Washing my hands and making soup for the person I love is the happiest thing in the world. How could it hurt?"
Her words undoubtedly touched Lê Nam Giệu's heart. When he was married to Xu Manqin, Xu Manqin didn't do this. It was gentle and considerate of her to remember his favorite dishes.
He slowly drank the soup that Chan Ka-yin had specially stewed for him. From time to time, he chatted with her about the two children.
"… I was worried that Phil would be scared to walk the runway alone abroad. I didn't expect him to do better than I expected. I'm really proud of him."
Lê Nam Giệu smiled. "Phil has always been very sensible, unlike Xiao Xiao."
Lê Nam Giệu frowned slightly when he thought of his eldest daughter who was crying on the phone. Li Xiao had been filming for the past two weeks and had calmed down a lot. However, before he could feel at ease, something seemed to have happened on her end. She didn't say anything specific on the phone and was vague about it.
Lê Nam Giệu suddenly lost interest in drinking soup when he thought of his eldest daughter.
Chan Ka-yin looked at his expression. "Could it be that Xiao Xiao wants to buy something again?"
Thinking of this possibility, Lê Nam Giệu's face darkened. He was displeased. He had just helped her pay for the villa and settled her credit card a while ago. She couldn't possibly have maxed out her credit card again, right?
The sound of hurried footsteps came from afar. Lê Nam Giệu raised his head and saw Li Xiao jogging over. He was about to reprimand his daughter when he saw her red eyes, which were like a rabbit's. There were still tears on her face, as if she had been greatly wronged.
He swallowed the words he was about to say and changed his words stiffly. "What happened?"
Li Xiao held the recording pen in his hand and didn't say much. He directly played the conversation.
When he heard that familiar voice, Chan Ka-yin's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad premonition.
Lê Nam Giệu and Ren P Tang had been rivals in love for many years. Naturally, he was no stranger to Ren P Tang's voice. The more he listened, the darker his face became. Although Lê Nam Giệu's feelings for Li Xiao were not as good as his other two children, she was still his daughter after all. It was not up to others to bully her.
Ren P Tang looked like a good person, but he had bribed someone to harm Li Xiao. His methods were too vicious. If Li Xiao had feelings for Lu Zhi, she would have been fooled long ago. If that had happened, the Li Clan would have been implicated as well.
Chan Ka-yin blurted out, "Could it be a misunderstanding? P Tang is not that kind of person. "
Li Xiao told her about how Lu Zhi had been pursuing her all this while and how she had found out about it. She told her everything in detail.
Li Xiao looked coldly at Chan Ka-yin. "Auntie, do you trust him that much? Then do you dare to swear in the name of Dad that he was not the one who did it? "
Chan Ka-yin opened his mouth. He was so flustered that he could not say a word to defend himself.
Li Xiao sneered. "As expected, you don't dare to do it either."
She turned to look at Lê Nam Giệu and said in a choked voice, "Although I am not close to Uncle Ren, I have never been rude to him in front of others. How did I offend him? Why did he have to frame me like this? "
Ren P Tang's words from two days ago suddenly appeared in Chan Ka-yin's mind.
"Is Xu Manqin's daughter still bullying you all the time?"
"Don't worry, I will protect you."
A vague thought appeared in his mind and became clearer little by little. Yes, Ren P Tang had dealt with Li Xiao because of her. He just wanted to vent her anger for her. She could not describe the feeling in her heart. She had already married someone else. There was no hope between them. Why did he have to do this?
Chan Ka-yin took a deep breath and said, "Xiao Xiao, don't be rash! Maybe someone is trying to sow discord between the two of you … "
Li Xiao interrupted her directly. "Is that so? Do you dare to use Chihō's life to guarantee that it was not Ren P Tang who did it? "
Chan Ka-yin: "…"
Li Xiao continued, "Do you dare to use Chien Fei's life to guarantee it?"
Chan Ka-yin's face turned pale, and her body was a little shaky. How could she dare … They were her most precious children.
If it was normal times, Lê Nam Giệu would have scolded Li Xiao for being so aggressive to Chan Ka-yin and asked her to apologize to Jiayin. But now …
He could also think of what Chan Ka-yin thought. Ren P Tang framed Li Xiao for Jiayin.
Li Xiao's face was full of sarcasm. "You are not sure, right? You keep saying that you treat me as your daughter, but you are lying to me, aren't you? "
"If this happened to Chien Fei, you would have gotten justice for her instead of racking your brains to defend the perpetrator."
She raised her head and tried to hold back her tears. She looked stubborn and acted as if she was heartbroken but refused to admit it in front of them.
"I was too stupid before. I won't be fooled a second time in the future. Well, I am not your daughter. Of course, I am not as important as your good friend in your heart. "The word" good friend "was full of sarcasm.
"No, no!" Chan Ka-yin did not know why the fire was directly burned on her. She could not help but raise her voice. "I just think that maybe someone deliberately framed P Tang and artificially synthesized this recording."
Lê Nam Giệu said in a low voice, "Whether it is artificially synthesized or not, we can let the professionals determine."
Nowadays, technology was advanced enough to determine whether the recording had been edited or not.
One was his daughter, and the other was his rival in love. Lê Nam Giệu definitely favored Li Xiao. Therefore, he stood opposite Chan Ka-yin and stood opposite her.
Li Xiao wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes with the back of her hand and said to Lê Nam Giệu, "Dad, I once tried to treat her as my family for your sake. Sorry, but I still can't do it. "
After that, she turned and went upstairs to her room. She was afraid that if she continued to speak, she would not be able to hold back and expose herself. Acting was really tiring! But the good thing was that she did not need to show that she liked Chan Ka-yin in front of Lê Nam Giệu.
Lê Nam Giệu just looked at Chan Ka-yin with heavy eyes. Inevitably, Li Xiao's words had a little impact on him. Was Ren P Tang that important to her? So important that she would rather choose to hurt Li Xiao?
Chan Ka-yin felt as if she had a bitter taste in her mouth. She reached out and pulled Lê Nam Giệu's sleeve, "Nan Jue, I really didn't mean that."
"This happened so suddenly that I couldn't react in time."
She took a deep breath, "If this was really done by P Tang, then I will deal with it impartially."
Lê Nam Giệu heard this and his face softened slightly, "I also hope that he didn't do it. Xiao Xiao has been wronged during this time. If her attitude is bad, please forgive her. "
Chan Ka-yin smiled bitterly in her heart: Was she not giving in to Li Xiao enough? Even an outsider like P Tang could see that she was wronged, but the man she loved turned a blind eye to it.
Perhaps, it was time to let Chien Fei come back earlier. When Li Xiao was the only child in the family, Nan Jue's heart would be more or less biased towards her.
She sat on the sofa in a daze. When she came back to her senses, Lê Nam Giệu was already gone. She didn't know if he went to find P Tang to settle accounts.
What if she was accidentally involved at that time …
The more Chan Ka-yin thought about it, the more flustered she became. She felt a splitting headache. Since Li Xiao woke up from his coma, she felt that she had a lot of troubles.
Suddenly, her eyes fell on the recording pen on the table, and she couldn't help but be startled. She didn't expect that Li Xiao had left in such a hurry that he actually left this thing on the table.
Her hand seemed to have its own consciousness. She couldn't help but pick up the recording pen and look around. When they were quarreling, the nanny and the others had already retreated outside. At this time, she was the only one in the living room. She took a deep breath, and her mind was in a dilemma. After a while, a determined expression appeared on her face, and she trembled as she deleted the file inside.
She didn't want to do this, but if she left it alone, P Tang's reputation would be ruined. He just thought wrong for a while, and he wanted to protect her too much, so he made a mistake. Just treat it as repaying him for helping her before.
She would let P Tang apologize to Li Xiao in the future. He would also treat Li Xiao well and make it up to her.
After deleting the file completely, she let out a long sigh, only to find that her palms were already wet.
When she heard the sound of the door opening upstairs, Chan Ka-yin subconsciously turned her head and looked over. She saw that Li Xiao had changed into a new set of clothes. Her makeup was neat, and she was walking down the stairs.
Chan Ka-yin stuffed the recording pen under the sofa.
After Li Xiao went downstairs, she looked around as if she was looking for something.
Chan Ka-yin saw that her efforts were in vain, and her originally sullen mood unconsciously became a little better. "What are you looking for?"
Li Xiao casually asked, "Did you see my recording pen?"
Chan Ka-yin said, "It's such an important thing, didn't you just take it upstairs? I just went outside to get something, so I didn't see it. Do you want me to help you look for it? "
Li Xiao stared at her, and Chan Ka-yin felt a little uneasy under her gaze. She felt as if she was stripped naked under the sun, and there was nowhere to hide.
After a while, Li Xiao smiled slightly. "It's okay, it's okay if it's lost. Anyway, it's not the only one."
Chan Ka-yin suddenly felt uneasy.
The next second, Li Xiao opened her bag, which was full of recording pens. "I still have so many recording pens ~" She wasn't an idiot. She definitely came back prepared. In fact, she had hidden a lot of backups in other places. She just wanted to test Chan Ka-yin. She didn't expect that she was really stupid enough to hide the recording pen.
Chan Ka-yin sucked in a breath of cold air, and her limbs were cold.
"Thanks to you, I just took a good picture. You really have deep feelings for P Tang, and you're willing to lie for him. This is probably the so-called care makes you confused. The hat on my dad's head is really beautiful ~ "She waved her phone.
Chan Ka-yin's heart instantly sank to the bottom.
