Before Tao Yinan could get a reply, the servant knocked on the door again and came in to tell her, "Master Tao is here, Miss."
"I'm not in the mood to see him right now," Tao Yinan said indifferently.
But how could a servant stop Tao Longqing?
Moreover, Tao Longqing had already come in. "Do you think I'm in the mood to see you? Yinan, the person you should trust the most right now is me. "
When Tao Longqing came in, Tao Ruhu and Tao Tianyi immediately bowed. Under Tao Longqing's signal, the two immediately lowered their heads and left.
"Don't forget what I told you to do." Tao Yinan heard the footsteps of the two leaving and reminded them again. However, because Tao Longqing was present, the two didn't reply. They silently noted it down and hurriedly left.
"What do you want them to do? Why don't you let me do it for you? "Tao Longqing said." I'm definitely more useful than the two of them, right? "
"Dad, I'm really tired. I want to rest for a while, "Tao Yinan said." The doctor will be here in an hour. I need to recharge my energy. "
Tao Longqing didn't have any intention of leaving. "I won't disturb you for too long. Moreover, even if the doctor comes, I'll have to tell them that you're my daughter. If I leave at this time, wouldn't I be not taking pity on my daughter?"
"If you really took pity on me, you wouldn't have let my brother bring me to Hua Xia. You didn't even say a word to stop him." Tao Yinan was clearly very disappointed with her father.
Tao Longqing naturally understood the meaning behind her words. "Yinan, you grew up in the Tao family's courtyard. You know very well what it means to have no choice."
"I'm sorry. I really don't understand what a patriarch who is in charge of everything can have no choice." Tao Yinan said indifferently. "If even you have times when you can't control yourself, then why would everyone covet your position?"
Tao Longqing was silent. "I know. Perhaps I shouldn't say such things, but … I really can't control myself. I have to think about our family's future. "
"Our family's future is to let my brother support the Tao family. Then, any one of us should make sacrifices! We should die for him, we should do everything for him! "Tao Yinan said," I was born to be a sacrifice! "
"You really aren't a sacrifice." Tao Longqing said, "My love for you is the same, but …"
"It's just that he's a boy. He has a natural advantage. He can inherit everything from you!" Tao Yinan was a little emotional. "But I can't. I'm just a girl. No matter how outstanding I am, I can't inherit everything from you!"
Tao Longqing didn't say anything. He was silent.
"Now that something has happened to Tao Su, the Tao Family is in trouble! Everyone is pointing their spears at you, and now my two aunts are going to seize power, aren't they? " Tao Yinan said, "As long as we take away the power, so what if she's a woman? She can still take charge of the Tao family!"
Tao Longqing remained silent. He knew that Tao Yinan was right. This was the truth.
"Dad, if you had let me compete fairly with my brother from the beginning, I would have been able to compete with him fairly! Tao Yinan said, "How did I survive all these years? My own brother sees me as an enemy! He thinks about how to harm me every day! "
"But he's the one who died in the end." Tao Longqing suddenly interrupted.
Tao Yinan sneered. "His death has nothing to do with me. He caused it himself."
"Nothing to do with you?" Tao Longqing obviously didn't believe it. "He went out with you."
"That's right. He did go out with me. He brought six experts with him, and I was alone." Tao Yinan said, "What do I have to fight with him?"
Tao Longqing pointed at his temple. "The best thing is actually this. As long as you have this, any problem or trouble can be solved."
Tao Yinan's smile was very subtle. "You know, I'm smarter than him."
"Of course I know." Tao Longqing nodded. "That's why I haven't interfered too much with the problems between you two. I always believed that you can handle problems better."
"You really haven't interfered with the problems between us. I've always been able to turn danger into safety." Tao Yinan said, "Then why did you interfere this time?"
Tao Longqing had always been suppressing his grief. Anyone who lost a son at this age would feel the greatest sorrow in their life.
But he forcefully endured it. After so many years of being in charge of the Tao Family, Tao Longqing had learned to endure all consequences.
No matter how bad the situation was, he had learned to calmly face it.
So even when he heard Tao Yinan tell him that Tao Su had died, he still used his calmest self to face the problem.
"I have the right to know what happened … …" Tao Longqing saying this was completely a compromise for his daughter.
"Haha … …" Tao Yinan's laughter was very weak.
Tao Longqing took a deep breath. "Give me a chance, Yinan. I'll make it up to you."
"You're not worried about your daughter's eyes, but whether or not your son was harmed by me." Tao Yinan's voice was emotionless. "Is that so?"
"I didn't." Tao Longqing didn't admit it.
Tao Yinan said with disappointment, "But you still haven't asked me why my eyes became like this."
Tao Longqing was startled. He really hadn't asked this question. "I … … I was worried that if I mentioned your sad matter, you'd feel sad."
"I won't." Tao Yinan shook her head.
"Then how did your eyes get hurt like this?" Tao Longqing immediately followed up with a question.
Tao Yinan was expressionless. "My brother ruined it for me."
Tao Longqing was startled. "Yinan … … Can I tell you the truth? If I tell you, will you mind?"
"Of course you can," Tao Yinan said. "If you lie to your own daughter, then who can you tell the truth to?"
"I don't believe that your brother did it," Tao Longqing said. "You've always been on guard against your brother. I know that. So if he attacked you, you would definitely be on guard. Even if you were injured, it's impossible for your eyes to … … "
"What if he forced it?" Tao Yinan interrupted Tao Longqing without any hesitation.
Tao Longqing took a deep breath. "With his personality, if he wanted to do something forcefully, he would do it to the extreme. He wouldn't let you live, and as long as your eyes … …"
"You really know my brother," Tao Yinan said.
"If he was really compassionate and didn't take your life. You wouldn't have been able to design anything for him even if you were blind … … "Tao Longqing said softly.
"My design?" Tao Yinan suddenly looked up and laughed. "In the end, you're still sure that my brother died under my design! You don't believe my words at all? Am I right? "
Tao Longqing was helpless. "Then what should I believe?"
"He was too arrogant, self-righteous, conceited, and domineering!" Tao Yinan said. "It's his own fault. What does it have to do with me!"
Tao Longqing was silent. He knew that Tao Yinan didn't want to tell him the truth at all.
"Forget it," Tao Longqing said lightly. "Since you don't want to say it, I won't force you. Rest well. "
"Dad, you've already forced me to say a lot of things that I don't want to say," Tao Yinan said. "If my eyes can be cured, I promise you that I will help you protect the Tao family … … If my eyes can't be cured, I only hope that you can fight for more for yourself."
Tao Longqing's expression was very ugly. Tao Yinan was right.
At his age, he didn't have a son. The only thing he could rely on was his daughter.
If her eyes could be recovered, Tao Longqing believed that with her ability, the real power of the Tao family would still be in their hands.
"What do you need me to do?" Tao Longqing asked. He never thought that there would be a day when he would have to negotiate with his daughter.
"I need someone to help me do what I need now," Tao Yinan said. "What I need the most now is my eyes!"
Tao Longqing changed the topic. "Don't you need me to help you find Heishui?"
Tao Yinan was startled and didn't answer.
"I believe that I can find him faster than the people you arranged," Tao Longqing continued.
Tao Yinan was silent for a while. "I won't trouble you. If you insist on doing so, of course, I have no right to interfere. This will depend on whether we can really trust each other. "
Tao Longqing smiled faintly. "Of course I trust my daughter. It's better if I don't interfere with what you've already arranged."
Tao Yinan was satisfied with her father's attitude, but she didn't say anything.
"Rest well. I'll go see if the doctor has arrived." Tao Longqing got up and left.
