Chapter 133 Father-Daughter Love

Hospital.

Liu Haidong lay on the hospital bed with a haggard look on his face, an IV in his left hand and an oxygen tube in his nostrils.

"He fainted from anger, it's not serious, you'll be fine after two days of rest." The doctor, wearing a white coat and with his hands in his pockets, said calmly to Liu Yuan.

When Liu Yuan heard the doctor's words, her heart finally settled down.

She slowly walked to the bedside and held Liu Haidong's hand tightly, her eyes full of concern and expectation, hoping that he would wake up soon.

Liu Yuan had been frightened too many times that day, and her spirit had been in a state of high tension. Now that she knew her father was fine, she could finally relax. Unconsciously, she fell asleep beside Liu Haidong's bed.

I don’t know how much time passed before Liu Haidong slowly woke up.

He rolled his eyes slightly and saw Liu Yuan sleeping with her head resting on his arm. The sad expression on his face relaxed and a feeling of warmth and happiness instantly surged into his heart.

What big thing is more important than the safety of his family? Even the Longjian Group that he founded is nothing compared to Liu Yuan's safety!

"Child, you are frightened. Go to sleep. Everything will be over when you wake up..." Liu Haidong looked at the sleeping Liu Yuan lovingly, his voice as gentle as the breeze.

Liu Yuan seemed to feel Liu Haidong's gentle gaze, and she raised her head sleepily.

When she saw that Liu Haidong had woken up safely, she was so excited that she stood up suddenly and threw herself into Liu Haidong's arms like a bird returning to its nest, sobbing, "Dad, you finally woke up. If anything happened to you, I would not live either, wuwuwu..."

Liu Haidong felt warm in his heart and his eyes became moist.

His hand gently patted Liu Yuan's back, as if he was coaxing a young child, "Okay, okay, my dear daughter, don't cry. It's Daddy's fault. I made you worry... Don't cry. You won't be beautiful if you cry anymore."

Liu Yuan then slowly stood up, wiped her tears with her hands, pursed her lips, and looked at Liu Haidong firmly, "Dad, I won't allow you to be so stubborn anymore. No matter what time it is, you must protect yourself and don't let yourself get hurt again."

This is very familiar. Isn't this what Liu Haidong often taught Liu Yuan when she was a child? This girl is now teaching him the opposite...

"Okay, okay, Dad will listen to you from now on, okay?" Liu Haidong smiled, and that smile was full of relief and satisfaction, just like a child who bought a new toy.

Liu Yuan nodded vigorously, her eyes full of concern for her father.

In her heart, Liu Haidong has been very successful and is old, and she doesn't want him to continue working so hard.

Liu Haidong changed the subject, stretched out his index finger and lightly scratched Liu Yuan's straight nose, and said with a smile, "I listen to you, so you have to listen to me too."

Liu Yuan nodded obediently, "Of course I will listen to you. I will listen to you for the rest of my life."

"Dad can only take care of you for the first half of your life. For the second half, you have to find a man who loves you and cares for you. Yuanyuan, don't you like Li Lin? He is a good man, responsible and capable. Dad will be relieved to hand you over to him!"

As Liu Haidong spoke, his tone became a little heavy, but his eyes were full of expectations for his daughter's future.

"Dad..." Liu Yuan's face flushed with shame. She pouted and looked at Liu Haidong resentfully, "Just because I like him doesn't mean I have to marry him... Don't match me up with him randomly."

Liu Haidong smiled with interest. He had never seen his daughter so shy before. If she didn't have that kind of intention towards Li Lin, would she be so shy?

"There's nothing to be ashamed of. It's normal for men and women to get married when they are old enough. Don't worry, as long as your relationship works out, I, your dad, will hand over the entire Longjian Group to you two to manage. By then, I will truly retire and it's time to enjoy life."

Thinking of the bright future, Liu Haidong couldn't help but reveal a happy expression on his face, as if he had already seen the moment when his daughter walked towards happiness in her wedding dress.

Suddenly, Liu Yuan fell silent. She sat beside the bed with a worried look on her face, her head bowed, as if something was weighing heavily on her mind.

"Yuanyuan, what's wrong? Did Dad say something wrong?" Liu Haidong asked hurriedly with concern, his eyes full of worry.

Liu Yuan calmly shook her head and sighed, "Dad, can't you see that Li Lin doesn't like me? He doesn't want to marry me."

"Oh?" Liu Haidong was surprised. With his daughter's superior conditions, there was hardly anyone in the entire Hanjiang Province who could compare with her. How could Li Lin look down on her?

In order to prevent his daughter from being sad, he quickly comforted her, "Yuanyuan, Dad is just joking. Even if Li Lin really wants to marry you, I still need to think about it.

My daughter is so outstanding, who wouldn't like her? He must feel that he is not worthy of you, so he keeps his distance from you. Don't worry, Dad will definitely find you a perfect husband, hehe..."

Liu Yuan sighed, and forced a smile as she looked at Liu Haidong, "Don't worry about me. I'm not worried about not being able to get married... Take good care of yourself. There are so many people in Longjian waiting for you to lead them."

"Hahaha... Okay, Daddy take good care of yourself, Daddy won't rush you..." Liu Haidong touched Liu Yuan's hair lovingly, but he couldn't help feeling a little worried about his daughter's love affairs.

At the same time, at Sanding headquarters.

Wang Zhili stood in his office, extremely anxious.

He paced back and forth in the room, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, his eyes full of anxiety and uneasiness.

Why did things develop to this point?
