Chapter 590: Cold-hearted Person
The confusion on Bai Jianjun's face gradually grew. "How old is she? Why is she married?"
"This is Xiaoyan's own decision." Xie Luan didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Gu Yan's decision. Although it was a bit early to get married as she was not even 20 years old, Xie Luan knew that Gu Yan had always been a very sensible and rational child. Gu Yan had her own rational judgment in doing anything.
Bai Jianjun still frowned and said in a stern tone, "Too careless!"
Xie Luan looked up at him but didn't say another word, which made Bai Jianjun feel a little embarrassed and at a loss.
The old man here was yawning and looked really tired, so Xie Luan took Bai Changle out.
In the end, besides Old Master Bai, Bai Jianjun was the only one left in the room.
Mr. Bai said, "Jianjun, why are you and Xiaoluan becoming more and more distant?"
Bai Jianjun's face was a little embarrassed. "Dad, you know me. I know how to face my soldiers, but... fortunately, Xiaoluan has always understood me."
"But you can't take her understanding for granted," Mr. Bai sighed, suddenly feeling that he had failed miserably in educating his children.
He waved his hand and said, "Go and comfort Xiaoluan. Mengchen was wrong about the child. No mother would feel good if they lost their child. And I will take charge of this matter for her."
Bai Jianjun nodded.
After he left Mr. Bai's room, he breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the bedroom.
Xie Luan was reading a book, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red. After Bai Jianjun came in, she continued to look at the book without saying a word.
Bai Jianjun recalled that when Xie Luan first came to his home, she was such a smart and pretty girl. Although she was always weak, she was gentle to everyone and there was a warm smile in the corners of her eyes.
But these past few days, Xie Luan... was obviously unhappy.
Bai Jianjun was a little distressed thinking about his words. He actually didn't like seeing Xie Luan so depressed and sad. Even when he was at his worst illness, Xie Luan had never been so depressed.
But before Bai Jianjun could say anything, Xie Luan raised his head and asked, "Jianjun, do you hate Xiaoyan?"
"I?"
Xie Luan lowered his eyes, "From the beginning of this incident till now, you haven't said a word for her!"
Bai Jianjun felt a little dry in his mouth. "I thought it was just a paternity test and I should investigate further..."
"You don't believe Xiaoyan is our daughter?" Xie Luan clutched the thin blanket tightly. "Xiaoyan looks a lot like my mother, and her personality is especially like my father's. Haha, but it's true. Let alone Xiaoyan, who has been wandering around for nearly twenty years, even Weiyang before, and our Changle, you actually didn't care much for them."
Xie Luan paused, then slowly said, "Because you have always been a very cold person."
Bai Jianjun suddenly felt a pain in his heart.
No, that's not the case. It's not that he doesn't care about the child!
It’s just that he has never known how to express his feelings, and most of his enthusiasm is devoted to his work.
He thought Xiaoluan always understood him...
"Xiao Luan, I..."
Xie Luan interrupted him, "Jianjun, I'm not feeling well today. Please go to the guest room."
After saying this, Xie Luan lay down with her back to Bai Jianjun, and for the first time, she clearly expressed her disappointment in him.
Bai Jianjun's hand stretched out in the air, and the words were stuck in his throat.
After a long while, he said softly, "Okay, have a good rest."
When Bai Jianjun turned and walked out, the door slowly closed.
Xie Luan, who was lying with her back to Bai Jianjun, had a tear slowly falling from her eye...
