Chapter 355 Darling, I'm sorry!

Jian Jingchuan gasped. "You're planning to avenge your father?"

"Yes!"

It wasn't really revenge. Xu Qinghuan wasn't a very sentimental person. Although she kept saying that she was under the protection of her adoptive father, Xu Jing'an, he had been dead for fourteen years. The original owner of the body didn't have much affection for that father, let alone her.

Many of the things she does are for the living to see.

She had no connections in this world, but humans are social animals. Besides, she needed to get rid of Song Wanlin's control and entanglement at the time. Using Xu Jing'an's people to leverage their strength was her best option.

Talking about revenge now is just a way of putting it. She didn't expect that after Song Wanlin left, that despicable dog Lu Ranglian would come after her again.

Li Shouzhi couldn't help but ask, "What evidence do you have?"

Lu Ranglian is not someone who can be easily suspected; to investigate him, sufficient evidence is required.

“No, but I know he went to Dongshan at the time. Why did he go? Did he have a mission there?” Xu Qinghuan’s thoughts wandered. “If he wanted to use someone else to do the dirty work, he wouldn’t need to do it himself.”

All he needs to do is connect Jiang Zhenguo with Mana Chinatsu. So, I think we should ask him how Jiang Zhenguo knew Mana Chinatsu was in Higashiyama.

They hadn't been in contact for many years. Why did they reconnect at such a crucial juncture?

"Also, I think we can ask Song Wanlin about the reason why Lu Ranglian went to Dongshan. Others may not know, but at that time, although my father had not yet sacrificed himself, they were already very close. Lu Ranglian would not go out without informing Song Wanlin unless it was a mission."

But none of the three people present—Xu Jing'an, Li Shouzhi, and Jiang Xingye—were fools. They all understood that Xu Qinghuan had handed Song Wanlin a knife, giving her an opportunity for revenge… no, it should be said that she had a chance to fight Lu Ranglian like dogs.

Li Shouzhi said, "I'll take care of this!"

He didn't want Jian Jingchuan to have any opportunity to deal with Song Wanlin, but Jian Jingchuan shook his head, "I'll do it!"

If Lu Ranglian dares to touch his daughter, he will settle all old and new scores with him.

Li Shouzhi glanced at Jian Jingchuan.

When he arrived, he was furious.

This is a conspiracy by the Lu family against Xu Qinghuan. Regardless of whether Xu Qinghuan said those things to Wang Hongyan yesterday, it doesn't matter how Wang Hongyan seduces Jiang Xingye in front of Xu Qinghuan. As long as the three of them face each other, Wang Hongyan will eventually die.

In Lu Ranglian's eyes, Xu Qinghuan was actually a difficult person to deal with. She had superb medical skills, and the Huo family took her under their wing. She led the people of Shangjiang Brigade to get rich and was a well-known figure in the entire Heilongjiang Province. She had a very high reputation among the people.

If Xu Qinghuan continues to grow up, the Lu family may face annihilation in the future.

In fact, up until now, the Lu family has not discovered that the treasure buried in the backyard is missing. After all, they would not easily touch those treasures unless they had something to do.

However, digging up the treasure would cause a great disturbance.

The Jiang family had lost something and were searching extensively. Lu Ranglian had already guessed that what was missing might be letters between Jiang Zhenguo and Mana Chika, which was why they were making such a fuss. Therefore, he did not suspect the treasure.

With Xu Jing'an back, it was impossible for Lu Ranglian not to hear the news.

Jian Jingchuan nodded, and Li Shouzhi gave Jiang Xingye a wink. The two of them went out together.

Jiang Xingye didn't go far; he stood at the doorway and could hear everything being said inside.

Xu Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, then stared at Jian Jingchuan. Gradually, she realized who this person in front of her was.
Tears streamed down her face without warning. She was somewhat unable to control her emotions; the feeling was strange and left her at a loss.

Jian Jingchuan's eyes burned, and his nose stung. He got up and walked over, tentatively raising his hand. His rough fingertips traced the girl's delicate, flower-like cheeks. Looking into her red eyes, he felt only guilt.

Countless nights I've spent lying in bed, staring into the darkness, wondering what the first thing he would say to me when he came home and saw our daughter.
He thought a lot: "My Huanhuan has grown up," "I'm your dad, and I've always missed you," "Dad has been fair to everyone, except my darling," "My dear daughter, can you forgive Dad?"...

Many, many more...

But at this moment, he slowly lowered one knee, lowered his body as much as possible, cupped his daughter's face, and couldn't say a word.

Whatever the reason, the years he missed are gone forever.

His daughter already has a fiancé and is long past the age where she needs him.

Tears welled up in his eyes uncontrollably. Jian Jingchuan turned his face away, his voice hoarse, "I'm sorry, you've grown up so much, and your father has never taken care of you!"

He has never fulfilled his responsibilities as a father for a single day.

Xu Qinghuan was somewhat stunned. In both her lives, she thought that the protection she could receive from her elders was the title of "orphan of a martyr" left to her by Xu Jing'an. She never dreamed that one day she would receive such profound fatherly love.

Did Xu Jing'an do right by her? As a father, he was indeed derelict in his duty. Fourteen years after his death, in her life, he should have long since turned to dust.

But would Xu Jing'an be willing?
He definitely didn't want to.

He is different from his parents in his previous life.

He gently pulled Xu Qinghuan into his arms, holding her tightly to his chest. Where she couldn't see, Jian Jingchuan closed his eyes, tears streaming down his resolute face, unable to stop for a long time.

In fact, he had known about Song Wanlin's infidelity for a long time. He originally planned to divorce her after the battle on Dongshan Island, with only one condition: that their daughter would stay with him.

He never imagined he wouldn't be able to come back.

He was swept away by the sea and rescued by Jian Zhongping.

Jian Zhongping was a red capitalist, and his situation was also very difficult. Fortunately, someone in higher-ups wanted to protect the Jian family, so they simply let him recognize Jian Zhongping as his father. Jian Zhongping originally only had one son, but he died, and he needed a son to inherit the family business.

After Jian Jingchuan acquired a new identity, he was assigned a new mission: ostensibly to do business in Japan, but in reality, he was working as a secret agent.

During his most recent mission, he almost got caught due to a relapse of an old injury, which aroused suspicion from the enemy. Just then, Jian Zhongping passed away, and the organization gave him this opportunity to return.

During this process, the organization also asked him how to handle the matter of Song Wanlin and Lu Ranglian.

If you ask Jian Jingchuan if he hates her, he does hate her, but he only hates Song Wanlin for not fulfilling her responsibilities as a mother when the child has no father, causing his child to suffer so much.

But Song Wanlin was, after all, Xu Qinghuan's mother. Even if he didn't care about anything else, he would still do it for Xu Qinghuan's sake and not want his child to see her parents killing each other.

Therefore, he refused the organization's offer to handle the matter for him.

He underestimated Xu Qinghuan's thoughts. Her complete severing of ties with Song Wanlin did not bring him comfort, but rather heartache.
