The sun shone down warmly . Sheng Yize stood there didn’t give an answer .
Song Qingchen, on the other hand, went back to the living room and cosied up to Mr . Song, wrapping her arms around his . “Daddy, Brother Ah Ze has agreed to go abroad with me!”
Seeing the happy smile on his young daughter’s face, Mr . Song also looked more placid .
As long as Sheng Yize would take responsibility for his daughter .
Unfortunately, that other girl… Sigh , fate could be so cruel!
The father and daughter left holding hands and Sheng Qingyi walked them out with the biggest smile . When he came back, Sheng Yize had just walked slowly into the room from the garden . He praised his son, “Good, very good, cajoling Songsong with ease like that . Going abroad is a great choice . The education there is better . I’ll have you two enroll in a school soon . You two are already eligible to get married out there, aren’t you…”
He nagged about all the little things tentatively and Sheng Yize listened with a smile . This was the first time that he felt Sheng Qingyi actually cared about him as a father .
But it was for such a contemptuous cause .
“I haven’t forgotten what you did back then . You broke my leg and locked me up in an asylum because I tried to look for her,” Sheng Yize smiled and said casually, which made Sheng Qingyi break into a cold sweat .
A Sheng Yize like this scared even him, a ruthless grownup!
“It was for your own good! And for the entire Sheng family!” Sheng Qingyi scowled and played the dignified father .
The smile on Sheng Yize’s face faded, replaced by a grim look as cold as the North Pole .
“Heh…” He stood ramrod straight . “From now own, get out of my world, together with your ‘for my own good’!”
“Get out? Is that what a son should say to a father?!” Sheng Qingyi roared in a frenzied rage . Sheng Yize only darted him a nonchalant look and strode out without looking back .
This place had never been his home .
An Xiaxia was recovering at a steady rate and the notice of her entering the quarter-final of the music festival had also arrived .
She wasn’t ready to go back to school yet, but she should be fine for the competition .
After some discussion with the rest of the family, both Papa An and An Yibei gave their consent . Hence, she began to practice at home .
There were over a dozen possible pieces for the quarter-final, and the contestants would draw lots on the day of the competition, which meant that all of them would have to practice over a dozen pieces beforehand . That was a lot of pressure .
An Xiaxia had the right attitude . As if she was venting her emotions from the past few days, she felt a cathartic power from her daily practice .
The day of the competition arrived in no time . An Yibei drove her to the venue himself and offered indifferent encouragement . “You can do it . ”
“Brother, can’t you try to be more passionate? Put in some feeling?” An Xiaxia said sarcastically .
An Yibei darted her a look and added in that same impassive tone, “Wow, Xiaxia is awesome . Go for it . ”
An Xiaxia rolled her eyes . “Forget it . Don’t cheer for me . ”
The corner of An Yibei’s mouth curled up the tiniest bit and he joined the rest of the audience .
Two unwanted guests were in the audience as well .
Li Fanxing and Song Qingchen .
“Sheng Yize really agreed to go abroad with you?” Li Fanxing was surprised .
Song Qingchen nodded shyly and smiled . “He did . ”
Li Fanxing was speechless . She had made a pact with Song Qingchen back then, one working to get Sheng Yize, while the other Qi Yanxi .
Song Qingchen had gotten what she wanted, but Li Fanxing was still getting nowhere .
That was so frustrating .
“Before I leave, I’d like to teach someone a lesson . ” Song Qingchen gracefully took out a pregnancy test result from her bag, took a picture, and sent it .
Li Fanxing glanced at the screen . It had indeed been sent to An Xiaxia!
