Shuxin saw Shu Mengling's pale face, as if she had just swallowed a fly. She was laughing so hard that her heart was cramping.
Shu Youkang put down his chopsticks and looked at Shu Mengling with a sullen face. "Ling 'er, didn't you say that you would persuade Xin' er to break up with that man with the surname Xiao?"
"I … it's not like that … Father, don't be angry. Listen to my explanation …" Shu Mengling was so anxious that her eyes turned red.
Shu Youkang's face was as cold as ice. "Explanation? What's there to explain? Xin 'er can't see clearly because she's involved in the situation. As her younger sister, instead of enlightening her, you actually tried to persuade her to break up with me. What are your intentions? "
"Father, don't be angry. Ling 'er must have known that I like Xiao Ruize and was afraid that I would be sad. That's why she tried to persuade me like that." Shuxin' helped 'Shu Mengling out of her predicament.
"Yes, yes, yes." Shu Mengling hurriedly took advantage of the situation. "I was also thinking about Elder Sister's feelings. I was afraid that she would be sad. You have always doted on Elder Sister the most. I know that you don't want her to be sad …"
"Ling 'er." Shuxin called Shu Mengling softly and interrupted her chatter. "Although I know that you did it for my sake, you shouldn't disregard Father's health like this. You know that Father has high blood pressure. If something bad happens to him because of anger, how can I be at ease?"
"I … I …" Shu Mengling's face was full of helplessness. Tears streamed down her face. She turned her head and looked at Jiang Tingrou beside her for help.
Jiang Tingrou's heart ached when she saw her daughter crying. She wiped her tears and said, "Ling 'er, don't cry. Father doesn't blame you. It's not your fault …"
Shuxin finished Jiang Tingrou's words at the right time. "Father, don't be angry. Aunt Rou is right. This has nothing to do with Ling 'er. It's all my fault. It's all my fault."
"Hmph!" Shu Youkang snorted and looked at Jiang Tingrou coldly. "You're just spoiling her. Ling 'er is spoiled by you. Xin' er knows how to admit her mistakes, but Ling 'er only knows how to cry and shirk responsibility. This is the kind of daughter you've brought up."
Jiang Tingrou's exquisitely made-up face turned as pale as a sheet of paper in an instant. She looked at Shu Youkang with eyes full of grievances. She moved her lips, wanting to say something, but swallowed her words in the end.
Shuxin had a good appetite and ate a lot during the meal.
After the meal, Shu Youkang asked Uncle Qiu to send Shuxin to school. Before they left, he called out to Shui Xin. "Xin 'er, go back to school and pack your things. Ask Uncle Qiu to bring your luggage back. Living at home is more comfortable than living at school."
Shuxin felt a warm current flowing through her heart. She felt a lump in her throat and held Shu Youkang's large, calloused hand. "Father, it's good to live at school. Uncle Qiu is old, I don't want him to work too hard just to send me around. Moreover, there's only a month left before the final exams. Living at school can save me a lot of time. I want to revise well. Next year, I'll be interning and looking for a job in my fourth year.
I need to work hard this year. "" Good, good, good. My Xin 'er has really grown up. "Shu Youkang's face was filled with gratification. He was so excited that he said the word' good 'three times in a row.
Shu Mengling stood at the side and watched the father-daughter relationship between Shuxin and Shu Youkang. She was so angry that her teeth were about to shatter. They were both daughters, but why was there such a big difference?
Shu Youkang had never cared about her like this. Never!
Could it be because Shuxin was the child of Shu Youkang's beloved woman, and she was the child of Jiang Tingrou who threw herself at him to give birth to her?
But didn't that woman run away with another man? Why did Shu Youkang still dote on Shuxin so much?
