At that moment, Lian Qian was flipping through a book called "Forbes Industrial Revolution 3.0" as if he did not notice the existence of the girl who had been standing in front of him for five minutes.
"Father." Lian Shijian's sparkling lips wriggled and finally broke the oppressive silence.
Lian Qian stopped flipping through the book, but soon, he focused on the book in his hand again. Perhaps the charm of this book was far greater than that of his biological daughter in front of him.
Lian Shijian was the only one who heard a muffled grunt. She could not tell if it was Lian Qian. Her heart felt like it was being grasped in the palm of someone's hand and squeezed hard. The pain made it difficult for her to breathe.
"Mom is sick. She asked me to find you and ask if you want to visit her in Jinling." Lian Shijian pinched his little finger. This sentence took all his strength.
When she was young, her impression of her father was extremely vague. Even when she was still in the Lian family, she had only seen her father a few times. Every time they met, she could always feel her father's coldness. It was as if her father did not like her since she was young.
Later, she left Zhongzhou with her mother to live in Jinling. She had never seen her father again. Occasionally, she would see her mother looking at photos for hours at night when she could not fall asleep.
Even though she received such treatment, she had never complained about Lian Qian. Perhaps it was a tragedy to be born into such a big family while being a girl.
"She will be fine if she is sick. I am very busy." Lian Qian finally spoke after a long silence. As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a dull pain in his chest. He bent down and coughed a few times.
"Dad, are you okay?" Lian Shijian's face was filled with worry. He picked up the teacup from the table and handed it to him.
Lian Qian waved his hand and knocked the teacup in her hand to the floor. The clear tea and tea leaves flowed on the maple floor. The teacup spun.
At that moment, Lian Shijian could no longer stay strong. Her eyes were instantly red and crystal-clear tears fell on the floor.
"You can leave if you are done talking." Lian Ju did not seem to care about her feelings at all. He waved his hand as if he was dismissing a stranger.
Lian Shijian let out a soft sigh. The last glimmer of hope in his eyes had been extinguished. With heavy steps, he left the study room.
She didn't know why her father would treat her like this. Just because her mother gave birth to a daughter and then lost her fertility, he could throw away the feelings between him and her mother completely, even treating her like a stranger.
If she had the chance to choose, she only hoped that she was an ordinary child and had an ordinary family. Even if her father had no ability and was just an ordinary worker, it would have been fine.
After Lian Shijian left, the door to the study room was pushed open. Xu Meili walked in with a strange smile on her face. When she saw Lian Qian sitting on the sofa, a look of disgust flashed across her eyes.
"You're really heartless. You don't even want to see your own daughter. She must be heartbroken." Xu Meili walked over with her arms crossed. She looked at him as if she was looking at a pitiful stray dog.
Lian Ju raised his head. His eyes shone brightly as if all the pain in his body had disappeared. He said in a deep voice, "Isn't this what you wanted to see? I was really blind to listen to you and chase Shi Jian and her son out of Zhong Zhou. I didn't expect you to be the real snake and scorpion. "
"Don't worry. As long as you listen to me obediently, I promise that your family will be fine." Xu Meili covered her mouth and smiled coldly. If it wasn't for the fact that he was still useful to her, she would have killed him long ago.
"Aunt Cui, remember to give her medicine to prevent her from dying. I'm going out for a while." Xu Meili said calmly. At that moment, a hunchbacked woman walked out from a dark corner of the study room.
It was a dark corner formed by the curtain blocking the sunlight. She had been standing there all along, but Lian Shijian didn't see her. She was obviously an expert in hiding her aura.
"Madam, I understand." Aunt Cui nodded and said.
Lian Ju clenched his fists tightly. The veins on his arms bulged. After a while, he slowly relaxed his fists. He seemed to have aged a few years.
…
Outside the door, Zhuo Bufan glanced at Lian Shijian, whose eyes were red. She didn't say anything and left the Lian Family's villa with her.
The two of them didn't look for Ye Xuan for the time being. Instead, they returned to the two-story building where they had stayed for a day. They still had some baggage in the building. They planned to return to Xinping County the next day.
Not long after the rain, the two of them returned to the two-story bungalow. Suddenly, a Cadillac limousine appeared on the road. It was rare to see such a luxury car in a rural area like this. Even if there was one, it would only be passing by. However, this car was slowly driving towards the two-story bungalow.
There were two beautiful women in the back seat. One was dressed fashionably, and the other was dressed more maturely with wavy curls.
"Are you sure this is the place?" The woman, who was dressed fashionably and wore an expensive Burberry diamond wristwatch, frowned slightly and asked the bodyguard who was driving.
The bodyguard said, "We used the GPS to locate the location. The cell phone signal came from here."
The more mature woman frowned slightly and said, "Xiao Yi, we didn't call in advance. Isn't it inappropriate to come looking for him?"
"Why not? If it weren't for my father asking me to look for him, I wouldn't have come all the way here." Zhou Yi pouted. She took out a mirror and touched up her makeup. She looked very unhappy.
It turned out that the two of them were Zhou Yi and Yan Chun Yi. They came to look for Zhuo Bufan under Zhou Gaisang's order. However, Yan Chun Yi called Zhuo Bufan several times, but her cell phone was turned off. In the end, they had no choice but to use the GPS to locate the last place where Zhuo Bufan's cell phone signal disappeared.
This kind of GPS was usually used by the public security system to track down criminals. However, with the means of the richest man in Zhongzhou, it was not difficult to track down a person's location.
Soon, the Cadillac stopped at the gate of the two-story courtyard. The bodyguard got out of the car and opened the back door. He bent down and blocked the door with his hand. Zhou Yi and Yan Chun Yi got out of the car. Both of them were wearing long dresses that showed off their graceful figures. Their pretty faces had their own merits. The two beautiful women instantly attracted the attention of many passers-by.
