Chapter 282: Never thought of it this way
The doorman quickly opened the door and saw a young and beautiful woman holding an umbrella.
And the other hand...
The other hand was actually holding the eldest daughter of the eldest house!
The concierge was almost scared to death. "Miss, it's so late, why are you back from outside? When...when did you go out?"
Jiaojiao lowered her head and said nothing.
Su Tan said, "Please go and ask General Li. I need to tell him something about your eldest daughter."
As Su Tan spoke, he also took out an ordinary cloth bag with a few gold leaves in it, which he used to reward people on a daily basis.
Normally speaking, if someone comes from outside and says he wants to see Li Sui, the doorman should go and inform him, which is somewhat against the rules.
Those who work as doormen also need to screen and identify who are guests and who are not.
If you encounter those who come to take advantage of you, you must drive them away.
But Su Tan was holding the eldest daughter of their eldest house in his hand. Who knew why the eldest daughter went out in the middle of the night and what had happened in between? The doorman did not dare to be negligent and quickly invited Su Tan in, while at the same time ordering someone to invite Li Sui.
After about a cup of tea, Li Sui quickly arrived at the flower hall. He walked in a hurry and sweat broke out on his forehead.
I don't know what the concierge asked someone to say to him.
When he saw it was Su Tan, he was about to avoid him, but Su Tan had already stood up with a cold tone.
"General Li, your daughter wanted to sneak to Miss Lin's grave tonight, but she almost fell into the moat when she passed by."
Li Sui's expression suddenly changed.
He quickly and nervously looked at Jiaojiao on the side.
Before she could even open her mouth to speak, Su Tan continued, "I wonder what kind of injustice your family has caused a young girl to suffer, to the point where she would run out of the house without even a lantern, just to visit her mother's grave."
Unless she had suffered a great injustice, which little girl would risk dying on the street in the middle of the night and go alone to find her mother's grave.
Li Sui's face turned pale and blue.
He subconsciously looked at Jiaojiao, his eyes filled with heartache and fear, "Jiaojiao..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was slapped hard in the face.
But when he looked up, there was no one around him, and Su Tan was also very far away from him.
Li Sui's eyes turned red uncontrollably, and his palms trembled slightly. "Ayuan!"
"Ayuan, is it you who came, Ayuan?"
It must be Lin Yuan!
Only Lin Yuan could not help but raise his hand and slap Jiaojiao when he knew that Jiaojiao had been wronged.
Jiaojiao went to the mountains tonight and must have met Lin Yuan!
"Ayuan, I have been thinking about you since you left, Ayuan..."
He called Lin Yuan's name over and over again.
But every time he shouted, he was slapped hard in the face.
But he didn't cry out in pain, he just covered his face and called Lin Yuan's name over and over again.
"Ayuan, it's okay for you to hit me or scold me. It's my fault anyway. I didn't take good care of Jiaojiao, so I didn't even know she was wronged. Ayuan, you deserve to hit me!"
Why did Jiaojiao run out in the middle of the night? It must be because she couldn't bear the grievance tonight, so she subconsciously went to find the person closest to her.
Even though the person closest to you is gone.
Li Sui was slapped in the face again.
He raised his head and touched his already red and swollen face, "Ayuan, after you beat me, can you let me see you?"
He hasn't seen Lin Yuan for a long time.
Ever since Lin Yuan left, he felt like a puppet with his soul drained out, living like a walking corpse every day.
Others called him decadent and useless and asked him to get over it sooner, but he pretended not to hear.
How could he hear it?
He and Lin Yuan were childhood sweethearts and had a deep love for each other. When their love for each other was at its strongest, she suddenly passed away.
Li Sui also wanted to persuade himself to move on.
But he understood better than anyone that those words of advice were just nice to hear.
Only when it happens to you do you realize how heartbreaking it is.
He wanted to meet Lin Yuan.
Even if it was Lin Yuan who became a ghost.
"hehe!"
A burst of cold laughter was heard, it was the familiar voice in memory, neither male nor female, with a sarcastic tone.
Li Sui's emotions suddenly became extremely excited, his eyes trembling a little. He subconsciously straightened his clothes and touched his face, "Ayuan!"
"You're back!"
He hasn't cleaned himself up yet today.
There seems to be a smell of sweat on the body.
Oh no!
How could he let Ayuan see himself in such a rough state!
"Stop playing Li Sui."
"You allowed others to abuse my daughter, and she almost got into trouble tonight! If you had remembered what I said back then, Jiaojiao wouldn't have been so wronged today!"
How can you talk about being affectionate or not when you don't care about your daughter?
She was so sick that she wanted to vomit.
Li Sui squatted down guiltily, pulled his daughter into his arms, and patted her back slowly, "Jiaojiao, I'm sorry..."
He knew that Lin Yuan would not say that others abused Jiaojiao for no reason.
If Jiaojiao had not been wronged, she would not have run away from the house in the middle of the night.
I must have been immersed in sadness, so much so that I neglected Jiaojiao's growth and gave others an opportunity to take advantage of me.
"You're pretending again, Li Sui. You married Jiaojiao a stepmother, and now you're the stepfather. What qualifications do you have to call me by my name?"
It should be said that there must be a stepfather before there can be a stepmother.
It was Li Sui who first made Jiaojiao suffer injustice.
Others dared to follow suit and just looked down on her daughter!
Li Sui moved the corners of his lips.
He wanted to say something, to explain himself.
But when the words came to my lips, I couldn't say a word.
What does he want to defend himself?
It was because he ignored Jiaojiao that others took advantage of him and took advantage of his daughter.
The child who lost his mother was very sad in the backyard.
Without the protection of their mother, if the father indulges in grief or quickly remarries and has children, the child who has lost his mother will soon lose his father as well.
My mother is gone and my father doesn't care about me anymore.
You can imagine how difficult these days will be.
Li Sui closed his eyes tightly.
How could he let Jiaojiao fall into such a situation?
He is really not a human being!
Another slap landed on Li Sui's face, accompanied by a burst of vicious voices, "I really hate that I'm not a ghost, otherwise I would burn your entire general's mansion to ashes!"
Damn Li Sui!
She actually abused her daughter like this!
Li Sui had a sad look on his face. He had wanted to meet Lin Yuan before, but now, he was so ashamed that he didn't even dare to raise his head.
Lin Yuan is right.
It was his fault that Jiaojiao suffered such a great injustice. If Jiaojiao had not met Su Tan tonight, it would have been too late for him to regret when something happened to Jiaojiao!
"Ayuan, hit me!"
Li Sui raised his head with a wry smile, "I'm not worthy of being your biological father. I do deserve to be beaten."
"Bah! I even made my hands dirty by beating you!" Lin Yuan cursed and finally showed up. "A heartless person like you is not worthy of being Jiaojiao's father!"
Li Sui's face suddenly turned extremely pale.
Lin Yuan's words were too harsh, making him feel worse than killing him.
Seeing that they were arguing about the same thing over and over again, Su Tan couldn't help but put down the tea in his hand and spoke in a calm voice.
"Perhaps there is some misunderstanding between you two?"
"We finally get to meet tonight, are we going to keep quarreling?"
Lin Yuan felt that Su Tan was right. He immediately turned his head to look at Li Sui and asked coldly, "Why did you marry Xu Ya?"
"She said Jiaojiao was the one who killed me, and Jiaojiao has always believed that, you know?"
Li Sui subconsciously looked at Jiaojiao. Seeing his daughter with her head down, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken. He was indeed not a good father. He had been ignoring Jiaojiao recently. "That's not the case."
"Jiaojiao, Dad has never thought of this."
