Chapter 158 I am your father

Peng Zixu hugged her from behind: "Sister, you haven't answered me yet."

"What?"

"Move in here."

"don't want."

"Move in here. Look at me, living alone in such a big house, I'm so lonely I can't sleep."

You Huan laughed: "Don't talk nonsense."

"I'm serious, move in with us, you can see handsome guys every day, and they'll cook for you every day."

"Hmm, the last one is more tempting."

"Am I not alluring in bed? You said that night that when you weren't drunk, you had no resistance to me."

You Huan: "..."

She's so honest when she's drunk.

"Sister, let me show you the bedroom."

Peng Zixu pulled her into the room.

Peng Zixu's room is large, with white and gray as the main colors.

You Huan picked up a photo frame from the bedside table and looked at it. It was a solo photo of Peng Zixu with a snow-capped mountain in the background, and he was wearing a thick down jacket.

She was engrossed in watching when suddenly her body was suspended in mid-air.

She instinctively wrapped her arms around Peng Zixu's neck: "What are you doing?"

Peng Zixu's eyes burned with passion: "I'll carry you to take a bath."

You Huan knew what he was thinking, so she didn't hesitate.

The change of environment made You Huan feel particularly special that night; she felt like she was flying one moment and about to die the next…

At the height of their passion, Peng Zixu whispered in her ear, "Sister, how about we move in? If we move in, we can have this kind of happiness every day. Don't you want that?"

You Huan nodded haphazardly.

...

The next day at work, Peng Zixu urged You Huan to quickly cancel the lease on the apartment.

You Huan propped her head up and looked at him: "What if your mother comes and sees me if I move in?"

Peng Zixu: "I changed the password, so she can't log in."

"She will also knock on the door and go in."

"I just told her you're my girlfriend, and my mom is very open-minded."

You Huan was stunned.

Although she and Peng Zixu slept together many times, they never said they were boyfriend and girlfriend.

You Huan eventually moved in with Peng Zixu.

When Li Mai learned that they were living together, she asked on the phone, "Are you two together now?"

You Huan was silent for a moment: "I guess so."

She hasn't thought that far ahead yet; she'll just let things continue for now.

Li Mai: "You returned that house?"

"Um."

Congratulations on finding a partner.

"Thanks!"

You Huan burst out laughing.

I don't want to think about anything else; I'm still very happy to be with Peng Zixu.

When will Zhou Songyan be back?

Li Mai: "There are two more days. It's almost the end of the year, and there's a lot to do."

You Huan didn't ask any more questions; she knew.

Chaoxu has been incredibly busy lately.

Apart from her and Peng Zixu, everyone else was extremely busy.

She didn't dare look at those resentful eyes when she left the office.

Peng Zixu had just joined the company and didn't have many responsibilities.

She was his secretary, and she was also free.

When Li Mai heard the doorbell ring, she said, "I'll hang up now, we'll talk another day."

...

Li Mai came out and saw the middle-aged man at the door, and paused for a moment.

Who are you looking for?

The other person was wearing a suit. Although he was older, he was tall and had a good build, and you could tell he was a handsome man when he was young.

Sheng Zhaohui stared at her for a long time.

Although I've seen photos of Li Mai, she looks even better in person. She resembles Li Shirong when she was young and has a bit of his look in her.

"My name is Sheng Zhaohui."

Li Mai frowned, unable to recall the person for a moment.

Sheng Zhaohui added, "I am the father of Sheng Lin and Sheng Xi."

Li Mai looked up in surprise.

After a long pause, she finally spoke: "What do you want from me?"

Li Mai's first thought was that it was another of Zhou Songyan's romantic entanglements.

The Sheng family wanted to marry Sheng Xi to Zhou Songyan, but they couldn't persuade Zhou Songyan, so they decided to try their luck with her.

She just didn't expect that Shengxi's father would come to find her in person.

Sheng Zhaohui: "May I go in and talk?"

Li Mai didn't move: "Let's talk here."

She had a bad impression of the Sheng family.

Sheng Zhaohui said in a low voice, "I am your father."

Li Mai: "..."

She was stunned for a long time.

What did this person say? He said he was her father?

Did she hear that right?

Li Shirong never told her who her biological father was. She asked him when she was a child and was severely beaten.

That was when she was very young. Later, she never dared to ask again and unconsciously forgot the role of her father.

Although Li Shirong never said it, she could sense that Li Shirong hated her biological father and never mentioned him.

Instead, she would mention his father to Zheng Anze.

Zheng Anze's father died of pancreatic cancer when he was five years old.

Li Mai looked at the middle-aged man in front of her and said, "Mr. Sheng, what did you just say?"

Sheng Zhaohui: "Your mother is Li Shirong, right? I am your father."

He knows Li Shirong and is very likely her biological father.

Li Mai remained silent for a moment before letting him in.

Sheng Zhaohui sat on the sofa, looking around at the beautiful villa.

"Zhou Songyan gave this to you."

Li Mai nodded absentmindedly.

Sheng Zhaohui: "He's been pretty good to you."

Li Mai did not respond.

After a pause, he asked, "What's your relationship with Li Shirong?"

Sheng Zhaohui looked slightly embarrassed.

"We were together for a while."

"Is she your mistress?"

Sheng Lin and Sheng Xi were both older than her, which means that Sheng Zhaohui was already married to Qian Hui and had children at that time.

Li Shirong is really something!

Li Mai sneered inwardly.

Sheng Zhaohui: "You can't say that. Your mother and I were in love at that time."

Although Li Mai disliked Qian Hui, she despised Sheng Zhaohui's behavior.

"Don't make cheating sound so noble."

Sheng Zhaohui looked embarrassed.

This daughter seems to be somewhat different from others.

He thought that Li Mai must be very moved to recognize him.

He did some investigation.

Over the years, Li Shirong harbored resentment towards him and treated Li Mai very badly, causing the child a lot of suffering.

He thought that Li Mai longed for her father's love and would be happy to know of his existence.

But after he said he was her father, Li Mai didn't show any joy on her face, and now she's even criticizing him.

“Mai Mai…”

Li Mai interrupted him: "It's not appropriate for you to call me that. Just call me by my name."

Sheng Zhaohui had no choice but to change his words: "Li Mai, I held you when you were born. At that time, you were tiny and only weighed a little over five pounds."

Li Mai didn't reminisce about the past with him, and said indifferently, "I don't remember."

Sheng Zhaohui: "You were so young back then, it's normal that you don't remember."

Li Mai: "And then, what happened?"

Sheng Zhaohui: "My wife found out about my affair with your mother, and considering the bigger picture, I broke up with your mother."

"When we broke up, I gave your mother a sum of money so she could raise you properly."

Li Mai now knows where Li Shirong's money comes from.

She barely used any of the money that was used to raise her.

Sheng Zhaohui investigated Li Mai's affairs and naturally knew that Li Shirong had spent all the money on her and Zheng Qi's son.

“Your mother hates me, but I never expected her to treat you like that. She is your biological mother. I thought that even without that money, she would still treat you well.”
