I'll give my daughter one more second.

I have truly failed as a father, so this time it's my turn. No matter what, no one can disappear! Wu Shen had already made up his mind.

"Even though that's what you said, Dad looks really angry," Wei Ling said softly, glancing at Wu Shen.

"Don't overthink it, I'm actually angry with myself. Angry at myself for only leaving you with bad experiences..." Wu Shen smiled faintly and gently rubbed Wei Ling's little face.

After Wei Ling left, Wu Shen inquired about Ye Ge and Yu Yin's situations in turn.

Although everyone's initial reaction was similar—unwilling to confess what they were hiding—it was rumored that this answer might influence how Yunying would confess.

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Ge and Yu Yin both revealed what they had been hiding from Wu Shen.

Ye Ge confessed that she had been bribed to help Qian Hui act as a double agent in her family in exchange for the Baumkuchen cake. However, Wu Shen already knew about this at the time, so it wasn't considered a big deal.

As for Yuyin, she was the most hesitant. She struggled for a long time before saying that she had become impure because of the influence of the dance costume, which made Wu Shen both amused and exasperated.

"Father, I was wrong! I shouldn't have gone astray! Please punish me as you please!"

"What do you mean by 'punish with all your might'? Don't make me sound like a sadist," Wu Shen complained.

"But, however..."

"This wasn't caused by your own will, and Yuyin is so smart and obedient, why would I punish her? I'm too busy praising her."

"Father! I will never let you down. I will study hard and strive to become a pillar of society!"

Yuyin, your values ​​are so sound! You're so young and yet you have such a profound understanding. It seems like another academic star is about to emerge in the family. I'm sure Grandpa will be very excited. Wu Shen felt ashamed.

After Amane left, the only remaining uninvestigated loli daughter is Tsukine.

"Father, is it my turn to answer that question?"

"No, Tsukine's situation is a bit special. If possible, I hope you can answer another question for me."

As Wu Shen spoke, he reiterated the question his father had mentioned earlier. Actually, Wu Shen was also a little puzzled as to why his father had emphasized having him ask Yueyin another seemingly unrelated question.

"What happened during my first reincarnation? As expected of Grandpa, he really hit the nail on the head right from the start. If I could, I really wouldn't want to recall that time."

After hearing what Wu Shen said, Yueyin, unusually, put away her cheerful smile and her expression became serious, as if there was something she didn't want to face.

Strange, could it be that Tsukine also has some kind of dark history?

[On June 10th, my new house is right next to the fire station. I have to say, their response was incredibly fast. I heard two announcements calling for emergency services, and just as I walked to the window, I saw the fire trucks leaving. The whole process took less than 10 seconds. lol]

Chapter 1011 The Broken Moon Sound

"If we're talking about putting yourself in someone else's shoes, I'm probably the one who feels the most deeply about Yun Ying's actions."

"Speaking of which, Tsukine has also made self-sacrificing moves, and she even succeeded. What was Tsukine thinking at the time?"

"He probably feels guilty and wants to make amends to everyone."

Yueyin lowered her head, seemingly recalling something, which made her appear somewhat depressed.

“I’m not some saint of high moral character, nor do I have any sense of self-sacrifice. I also want to live a happy and carefree life with my father. The reason I acted that way as if I had lost my mind was probably because of the guilt and remorse I felt for the terrible mistakes I had made…”

As Yueyin spoke, she walked up to Wu Shen and stopped.

"Guilt? Feeling guilty? Why do I feel this way?" Wu Shen was vaguely puzzled.

"..."

Yueyin turned her head away, whether out of fear or unwillingness to look Wu Shen in the eye.

"Tsukune?"

"Father, can you hug me?" Yueyin suddenly rushed over, grabbed Wu Shen's leg, and looked up with a pitiful expression.

This time, Wu Shen did not respond casually as before. Feeling the slight trembling from the small hand, he keenly realized that this was definitely not the usual acting by a movie star.

"Yueyin? Are you alright? If there's something you don't want me to know, then there's no need to say anything." Wu Shen squatted down and took Yueyin's small hands in his arms, speaking very earnestly.

To be honest, this was the first time Wu Shen had encountered such an unusual Yueyin.

Even when Tsukine disappeared and then returned, she never showed such a weak and helpless expression.

In Wu Shen's memory, Yueyin was always so intelligent, so confident, so independent and strong. She never relied on herself and instead became his strong support. It was as if she had countless clever ideas and plans hidden in her heart.

In his eyes, Tsukine was a loli daughter without any flaws or weaknesses.

There was no need for him to worry about her, nor could he, and in fact, he would be the one Yueyin worried about. However, feeling the uncontrollable trembling in his hands, Wu Shen suddenly realized that he had been completely wrong.

Honestly, how many times do I have to remind myself of my dereliction of duty as a father?

Wu Shen sighed deeply, sat down on the small chair in the entryway, and then pulled Yueyin onto his lap, embracing her small, soft body with both hands.

"If you don't want to remember, you really don't have to force yourself."

Wu Shen gently stroked her hair. Slowly, Yueyin's uncontrollable trembling subsided.

“I didn’t force myself. I was just scared, very scared. I was scared of how much my father would hate me if he knew what had happened in the past.”

"What a joke. What father ever hates his daughter? You're just making things up."

"No, if Father knew, he would definitely hate me." Yueyin gradually revealed a bitter smile.

Wu Shen snorted and flicked Yueyin's forehead: "Don't always jump to conclusions so quickly. Whether I dislike Yueyin or not is up to me."

"I can like Tsukine if I want, and I can hate her if I want. You need to understand one thing: I'm the one who makes the decisions, not you. I've already decided to like Tsukine, so congratulations on finally guessing wrong."

"Father is really as willful as a child," Yueyin said with a smile.

"Huh? Where did that soft and cute Tsukine who was just asking for a hug go? Was it just my imagination? Compared to Pupu Monster, I really like Tsukine's contrasting cuteness and her tendency to ask for hugs and act spoiled." Wu Shen said with a mischievous smile.

Upon hearing Wu Shen's deliberately made words, Yueyin's face flushed slightly.

"How embarrassing! I really lost my composure! It's all Yunying's fault, otherwise I wouldn't have shown such a terrible side in front of Father."

"It's nothing, I think it's fine this way. I told Yueyin before, right? Don't worry about everything by yourself, you can talk to her more and confide in her. I will share your troubles with Yueyin."

"So please tell me anything. I will absolutely never hate Tsukine."

"Hmph, I see now. How could a father who is such a doting father possibly hate me? I was just confused before and didn't see through my father's true nature."

Yueyin rubbed her little face, took a few deep breaths, and regained her former rhythm.

Wu Shen couldn't help but complain: "Don't make me sound like a pervert. Isn't it normal for a father to love his daughter? People these days are really morally bankrupt, and the world is going to the dogs."

"Who is 'Shifeng'? And who is 'Xia'?" Yueyin blinked.

"Alright! Let's not change the subject. Now that you know my opinion, Tsukine, tell me what happened back then. Of course, if you don't want to, just tell me. I won't force you."

“No need.” Yueyin shook her head decisively. “Think about it carefully. If I keep it in my heart, this matter will probably always be a nightmare that I can’t get rid of. It’s better to say it frankly.”

"Father, you must know about the time you first traveled back in time and how your daughters fought each other to secure their future, right?"

“Yes, Yueyin, didn’t you tell me that?” Wu Shen nodded.

Wu Shen remembered Yueyin telling him that everything now was no longer the original timeline. With the help of the pendant, Yueyin had started from scratch countless times before gradually figuring out the prototype of a happy ending.

"I was the initial victor back then, and my father knew that too." Yueyin raised her head, a look of reminiscence on her face.

"Back then, there weren't many people competing for the future. Me, Wuyi, Yege, and Yuyin were the initial contestants."

"Unfortunately, back then, we only regarded each other as 'mortal enemies.' We never communicated at all, everyone was wary of each other, and no one understood each other. Looking back now, it's really pathetic."

"Even though we are all sisters and family, we are considered the biggest obstacle to reuniting with our father and mother because we are not familiar with each other."

"Um, let's leave you aside for now. Is Ye Ge like this too?"

Wu Shen simply couldn't imagine Ye Ge being involved in the treacherous Shen Cup war.

"Night Song? For Night Song, who is as pure as a blank sheet of paper, this is too cruel for her. So she was the first to be eliminated, eliminated by my own hands."

"Tsukine, what did you do to Yoru?"

Wu Shen felt a wave of embarrassment, and a brutal image flashed through his mind of the little girls smiling as they fought each other with machetes and baseball bats.

“Father, this isn’t some dark or brutal plot, there’s no hand-to-hand combat.” Yueyin waved her little hand. “It was just a little trick to deceive Yege into thinking that everyone was getting along peacefully, but in the end everyone turned out to be traitors, and only Yege didn’t run away.”

"However, I will not make excuses or deny it. No matter how I try to explain, I am undoubtedly the culprit who caused Night Song to disappear."

"Later, I used a little trick to cause a misunderstanding between my father and Sister Shiyu, whom I had just met, which led to their separation and the disappearance of the dance costume."

"When it came time to decide the winner, Mother and Yukino confronted each other and decided to confess together, leaving Father to choose. I then used a little trick to secretly alter Yukino's text message, making Father see only Mother's letter."

A seemingly insignificant trick is terrifying. Is it really just a seemingly insignificant trick? As expected of Tsukine, she is truly terrifying.

"The result is self-evident. Mother won without a fight, and my despicable act made me the final victor." As Yueyin said this, she covered her face, not wanting Wu Shen to see her expression.

"I achieved my wish, thinking that a happy life with my father, mother, and myself awaited me. However, after the victory, looking at the empty surroundings, I suddenly realized what I had done in the end..."

“I don’t know them, I have no connection with them, they are just strangers. I want to continue living with my father and mother. If I don’t, I will be eliminated by the others. I have countless ways to defend myself, clear my name, and exonerate myself, but no matter what, it cannot change the fact that I was selfish and self-serving in the past, which caused all the other sisters to disappear because of me…”

“Even in fair competition, I wouldn’t be suffering like this, burdened by intense guilt and remorse. Now, Father, you should know what a despicable and wicked person I am. If you want to hate me, I won’t complain. Blame me, insult me, punish me, despise me! This is the punishment I deserve!”

After Yueyin poured out everything, she felt utterly hopeless and cried out in a cathartic outburst.

"Yueyin, am I saying you're a masochist?" Wu Shen pinched Yueyin's little face in his arms, interrupting her.

Today is truly a showcase of my darkest past; I might even have to thank Yun Ying for giving me this opportunity.

Otherwise, if such things are kept bottled up in Tsukine's heart, who knows when Tsukine might break down.

"What masochist? Father, don't you even know how to scold me?" Yueyin, with her back to Wu Shen, gently kicked his thigh with her swaying white silk-clad little feet.

"What can I do? Stand on the moral high ground and criticize my own daughter? I'm not that shameless."

Wu Shen bent down and pinched Yueyin's kicking white silk-clad little feet, gently tickling the soles of her feet a few times as "punishment".

"Are you satisfied with this punishment, Yueyin?"

"What kind of punishment is this! Father, you must be joking!"

"Tsukine, you don't need to blame yourself so much. Didn't you do a lot of things for everyone later? The one who should be punished and criticized is me. I didn't realize anything during the first reincarnation, and I didn't share any of your worries, pain, or fears."

How can I possibly criticize a group of young girls?

If I had noticed the anomaly earlier and taken action sooner, how could the first cycle of reincarnation have turned into a chaotic fight among my daughters?

"This can't be blamed on Father. During the first reincarnation, everyone went to their respective mothers, trying to win over Father. It wasn't until later that Father discovered our existence. But by then, it was too late."
