Chapter 241: Because She Deserves It
Hearing this name, Xie Bowen was a little stunned. Some points that he had ignored all along suddenly became clear at this moment.
At the beginning, Xie Xihe always called Liang Suqin "Mom". Even after he was completely disappointed in her, the most he did was stop calling her.
But since some time ago, her name has changed.
Ms. Liang.
Thank you, Madam.
Or just call Liang Suqin.
No matter which name it is, it is not the name a daughter calls her mother.
Xie Bowen looked at her in shock: "Xiao Xi, you...already knew it?"
Xie Xihe looked back at him and couldn't help but smile: "I thought Dad knew that I knew."
Xie Bowen was embarrassed.
Don't mention it, he really didn't know.
Not sure if it was because Xie Xihe's attitude towards him was still the same as before, or if the weight on his heart had just fallen, but Xie Bowen relaxed and asked in confusion, "Since you knew, why didn't you say it?"
"No need." Xie Xihe said casually, tilting his head to look at Xie Bowen, and curling his lips: "It's enough for me to know that you are my father."
The girl's eyebrows were curved, with a wanton look in her eyes. Xie Bowen's eyes were slightly hot, and he nodded vigorously: "Yes, you just need to know that I am your father."
Xie Yi just came back to his senses from the shocking news and saw this scene. Without thinking, he interrupted and said unhappily: "Then I am not your nephew?"
Xie Xihe laughed and teased him deliberately: "Call me little aunt a hundred times first and then I'll think about it."
Xie Yi: “!!!”
The smile in Xie Bowen's eyes deepened, but when he turned around and saw Liang Suqin looking at them in disbelief, he stopped smiling.
The corners of his mouth drooped, and his expressionless face returned to normal: "Do I need you to leave?"
Liang Suqin was completely dazed.
She never dreamed that after she finally revealed the news she had endured for twenty years and thought was a shocking secret, it didn't even cause the slightest ripple!
Xie Xihe actually knew? !
How could she know?!
Since she already knew about it, why did she act like nothing happened and not take it to heart at all?!
Countless thoughts flashed through Liang Suqin's mind, and suddenly her heart skipped a beat, and she grabbed Xie Bowen's arm.
He spoke quickly, "No, no one can remain free of resentment after knowing that their parents are not their biological parents. She must be pretending. Bowen, don't believe her!"
Xie Xihe raised his lips and smiled: "Why should I pretend?"
Why?
Liang Suqin thought quickly. Suddenly, her eyes widened and she uttered a word with absolute certainty: "Money!"
My mind opened up instantly.
She grabbed Xie Bowen tightly and said quickly, "Xie's Pharmaceutical Company has invited the God of Alchemy to refine a panacea. Now is the time when the Xie family is at its peak. Of course, she must hold on to you tightly and please you, so that she can get the benefits!"
The more Liang Suqin spoke, the more she felt that this was the case. She became more and more certain: "You are the daughter you raised yourself, so you should know her temper best. She has been as stubborn as a donkey since she was a child, and she is also very sensitive. How could she not take such a big thing to heart?"
"She must have other intentions. She wants to seize our Xie family's property!"
Thinking back on what had happened in the past while, and glancing at the property ownership certificate that had fallen to the ground, Liang Suqin's face changed. "Wanyu was sent to a mental hospital by her, Mingzhu was abandoned by you because of her, and even me, our relationship of more than 40 years has been repeatedly in jeopardy because of her!"
"She's already made it!"
Reasonable and well-organized.
If she hadn't been the person involved, and if the panacea hadn't been made by her herself, she would have almost believed her lies.
There was a smile in Xie Xihe's eyes.
Xie Bowen's face turned dark, and he almost couldn't help but tell the origin of the panacea.
Of course I held back.
Apart from Xie Xihe himself, only he and Tang Huaijin know about this matter. If the news leaks out, it will not be a good thing for Xie Xihe.
"From the moment I brought Xiaoxi back home, she is my daughter, Xie Bowen. Whatever she wants, as long as I have it, I will personally bring it to her."
“There’s no need to be calculating, and there’s no need to have any ulterior motives.”
Xie Bowen said in a slow voice, and then looked at Liang Suqin: "I thought you knew this a long time ago."
She knew, how could she not know?
It was because she knew this that she couldn't control her jealousy and suspicion, until she and her husband drifted further and further apart...
Liang Suqin looked at this familiar yet unfamiliar face in front of her, feeling as if her heart was leaking air. She endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help but ask the question that had been lingering in her mind for more than ten years: "Why?"
Just because she is a direct descendant of the Xie family, the daughter of the "young master" whom she has only heard stories about but has never seen in person?
Just because of a promise made in the past?
But are these things more important than their blood relatives? !
Of course not.
Xie Bowen admitted it.
At the beginning, his feelings for Xie Xihe came entirely from the Xie family and from his admiration for the young master, so he loved her as well.
For him, raising Xie Xihe, taking care of her and loving her is a promise and a responsibility.
But as time went by, as they spent time together day after day, he gradually put his promises and responsibilities behind him. In his heart, Xie Xihe was his daughter.
Not a biological child, but better than a biological child.
The scenes of his time with Xie Xihe flashed through his mind, and Xie Bowen's brows softened unconsciously. His expression faded, and he said in a gentle voice, "Because she's worth it."
His Xiaoxi is the best girl in the world. Beneath her silent appearance, she hides the warmest and softest heart.
She deserves the best in the world.
Well, she deserves it...
Liang Suqin just wanted to laugh out loud, and she actually laughed.
Without saying anything more, he glanced at Xie Bowen and Xie Xihe with hatred and left as if escaping.
Liang Jiayi hesitated for a moment, but finally caught up.
The room became quiet again.
The three of them, the grandfather, daughter and granddaughter, faced each other in pairs. Finally, Xie Bowen looked at Xie Yi and said, "It's getting late. Xiaoyi, go and rest first. I want to talk to your aunt."
Xie Xihe looked at Xie Xihe, then at Xie Bowen, and nodded: "Okay."
After he finished speaking, he walked out and closed the door behind him.
But he stopped when the door was about to close.
He suddenly opened the door again and shouted in the direction of Xie Xihe: "Aunt!"
With a "bang", the door closed and Xie Yi's hurried footsteps gradually faded away.
Xie Xihe was stunned for a moment, then chuckled.
??Good morning
?
