Xu Huanyan's voice trembled slightly; she had taken Xu Bai's words to heart.
Last time, she declared war on Su Ning, and afterwards she didn't take the initiative to go to Gu Jingchen.
Actually, she was afraid of meeting Gu Jingchen.
A man who doesn't love her will not only fail to smile at her when she clings to him, but will also be as cold as ice. He might even get angry and humiliate her.
She brought all this humiliation upon herself.
Xu Huanyan was too afraid to speak. When Madam Xu moved closer, Mr. Xu called out to her.
"Jiang Yun!"
Madam Xu stopped in her tracks, tears welling up in her eyes again; she was truly aggrieved.
Everything she did was for the good of her husband and daughter, why can't they understand!
"Brother Sheng, for the sake of our daughter and the Xu family, I urge you to seriously consider this matter."
Madam Xu spoke softly, tears welling in her eyes.
"I will not agree to this."
After listening to Mrs. Xu's many words and her emotional appeal, Mr. Xu's words were very firm, and his gaze was cold, without a trace of gentleness.
"I advise your mother and the Jiang family to give up on this idea."
Xu Sheng's objection made Madam Xu clench her fists. She gritted her teeth and asked clearly and sarcastically, "Xu Sheng, you actually disagree!"
How could you disagree!
"Who is Su Ning to you? You don't think about Huan Yan and me, but you insist on thinking about her!"
Madam Xu questioned Su Ning, saying that she herself recognized Xu Jiang as her father, and Xu Sheng was just her uncle.
"She is my daughter!"
Little did she know that after Mrs. Xu finished speaking, Mr. Xu looked at her coldly and said indifferently.
His voice wasn't as clear and melodious as Madam Xu's; it was soft, yet extremely powerful, and it drifted gently into Xu Bai's ears and into his heart.
He stared blankly at Mr. Xu, wondering if he had misheard.
Xu Huanyan knew that Mr. Xu had revealed Su Ning's background, but she was surprised.
"She is my biological daughter!"
Xu Sheng then asked, "Jiang Yun, is this reason enough?"
"I have the right to decide her affairs."
Xu Sheng left those words behind and went upstairs.
Mrs. Xu, who was left in the living room, collapsed to the ground because Mr. Xu revealed Su Ning's background in front of the servants and Xu Bai.
"Mother!"
Xu Huanyan helped Madam Xu up and then onto the sofa.
Madam Xu grasped Xu Huanyan's hand and murmured something.
Mr. Xu dared to acknowledge Su Ning today, and he certainly will in the future.
In this way, Su Ning will return to this home and replace Huan Yan. For a moment, Madam Xu became increasingly confused and fearful, her face growing paler with each passing thought.
Similarly, Xu Bai, who was standing in the living room, was also thinking a lot. He looked up at Mr. Xu who was going upstairs, and then followed him up.
Mr. Xu went into his study, where he slept far more often than in the master bedroom. Just as he was about to take out a cigarette, Xu Bai knocked on the door and came in. "Dad, is she really your daughter?"
Mr. Xu turned around and saw Xu Bai's pale face, looking at him with a puzzled expression.
"yes!"
Mr. Xu readily admitted it.
As he spoke, he lit a cigarette, and his fingers trembled inexplicably as he lit it.
He never intended to hide Su Ning's background from everyone, but he was quite afraid that Xu Bai would find out.
He was even more afraid that Xu Bai would find out that he and Su Ning were siblings.
He didn't know how to face that situation!
"Is it yours and Aunt Su's?"
Xu Bai asked again.
