Chapter 120 You Are My Daughter
Li Qingqing stood up hesitantly, looked at Wei Qingming blankly, and waited for him to introduce her.
But Wei Qingming just turned aside with an expressionless face, showing no intention of speaking at all.
The new person in the room was a middle-aged man in his fifties. He was wearing a dark grey suit, gold-rimmed glasses, and his hair was combed neatly. He looked like a very respectable person with high social status.
The moment he saw Li Qingqing, all the muscles on his face became excited, as if there were surging emotions inside that wanted to burst out.
He stood in the living room, as if he had already prepared himself to welcome her, but when he actually saw Li Qingqing, he became awkward.
Li Qingqing looked at the strange scene in front of her, not knowing what to do. She stood there hesitantly, waiting for the first person to speak and break the weird atmosphere.
Finally, the middle-aged man chose not to suppress his emotions anymore. He walked to Li Qingqing with a somewhat unsteady step, wanting to grab her hand excitedly, but was afraid that this would scare her on their first meeting.
In the end, his hand that wanted to touch Li Qingqing stopped in mid-air, and his low and slightly hoarse voice could only utter two words: "Qingqing..."
Although Li Qingqing felt that the uncle in front of her was a little strange, she still responded to him politely.
"I'm Li Qingqing, uncle, who are you...?" After saying that, she looked at Wei Qingming for help.
Wei Qingming glanced at the middle-aged man, shook his head, and walked to the living room and sat down, still with no intention of introducing him to Li Qingqing.
Li Qingqing felt even more puzzled. She scratched the back of her head and refocused her attention on the strange uncle in front of her.
The middle-aged man adjusted his mood, put on a fairly decent expression, and stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture to Li Qingqing.
"Sit down first, and we'll talk slowly."
Li Qingqing nodded, and followed him to the living room and sat down a little uneasily.
There was a set of tea sets on the coffee table, with a rich aroma of tea. The middle-aged man handed the brewed tea to Li Qingqing.
She nodded slightly and took it, sitting respectfully, waiting for the uncle to speak.
The middle-aged man straightened his clothes and stared at Li Qingqing without blinking. After hesitating for a long time, he finally asked her cautiously, "How have you been these past few years?"
"I……?"
Li Qingqing didn't expect that the first sentence the uncle said would be this, which made Li Qingqing even more curious about his identity.
The fact that he could appear in Wei Qingming's home meant that he was someone Wei Qingming knew. At this age, Li Qingqing's first reaction was that he was Wei Qingming's father.
But just now, Wei Qingming's attitude towards him didn't seem very respectful, so she was not particularly sure. She secretly observed the appearance of the two and found that they didn't look particularly similar.
Out of politeness, she simply answered the middle-aged man's question, "Very good."
Although this was not the case, there was no need for her to report her miserable life to a stranger. She just wanted to quickly skip the polite social interactions and figure out the real situation.
But the uncle didn't seem to notice the perfunctory response from Li Qingqing and continued to ask her:
"Is everyone at home okay?"
“…”
Li Qingqing rubbed her hands subconsciously. This question made her a little embarrassed. Although these were questions often asked by elders, this question was still quite burdensome for Li Qingqing.
Li Qingqing doesn't care at all whether Chen Suyun and Xie Hongde are doing well now. She has been exiled from that family a long time ago.
"It should be fine. I don't really care about them right now."
Li Qingqing answered this question very coldly, and even the most insensitive person could hear that she did not have a good relationship with her current parents.
The middle-aged man was a little surprised to hear her answer. He turned and looked at Wei Qingming who was sitting next to her with confusion, and there seemed to be a hint of blame in his expression.
Wei Qingming simply ignored him and leaned lazily on the sofa, looking as if it was none of his business.
The middle-aged man was a little embarrassed. He adjusted his glasses and asked Li Qingqing the next question, "What kind of job are you doing now?"
Li Qingqing pursed her lips, put down her teacup and glanced at Wei Qingming.
He still had an expressionless and leisurely look, as if what happened at the scene had nothing to do with him.
Li Qingqing felt a little offended. She knew nothing about the other party, but he kept asking her about her privacy. If it weren't for the fact that the other party was her elder, Li Qingqing wouldn't have endured it until now.
"Uncle...why don't you introduce yourself to me first? That way we can communicate better, right?" Li Qingqing tried hard to force out a relatively gentle smile.
“Ah, yes…”
The middle-aged man rubbed his hands awkwardly, a trace of guilt flashed across his face. He put away his kind face and replaced it with a panicked look.
He folded his hands on his knees and remained silent for a while, staring at the teacup in front of him.
Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he told Wei Qingming: "Take it out."
Wei Qingming suddenly seemed to remember that he had a guest at home. He sat up straight, took out a file bag from the black briefcase next to him and handed it to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man took it with a little trembling, and did not put it in front of Li Qingqing in a hurry. Instead, he opened it and took a look at it first.
Inside the file bag were several A4-sized documents, which looked like some kind of test report.
For some reason, Li Qingqing's heart started beating with the rustling sound of paper. She stared at the document closely. She felt that what Wei Qingming wanted to tell her should be in this document.
The middle-aged man looked at her steadily, and finally reached out and handed the document to her.
As Li Qingqing took the document, her life story came into her ears like thunder from the middle-aged man's mouth.
"Qingqing...you are my daughter..."
"boom---"
In an instant, this news exploded in Li Qingqing's mind, making her seem to forget to breathe.
Her fingers holding the document froze, and her whole body seemed to be frozen, standing there in a daze for a long time.
Pulling her thoughts back a little, she couldn't help but look up at the middle-aged man, then turned to look at Wei Qingming.
She noticed that their expressions were very serious and they didn't look like they were joking.
Her brain short-circuited for a moment, and she seemed not to fully understand the words uttered by the middle-aged man.
He just repeated it a little dully, "I am your daughter...?"
The middle-aged man no longer suppressed his emotions. He leaned forward slightly and sat a little further. He took Li Qingqing's hand, and two lines of tears slowly flowed from behind his glasses.
"Qingqing...I am your father, I am your biological father!"
