He said with mixed emotions, "Shishi, actually, Daddy and your eldest brother already knew about this matter a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to know it too, and even tell it out loud. Daddy is very relieved..."
Duan Shishi showed a look of surprise, her eyes were red, and she looked very pitiful.
However, Duan Hong did not soften his heart. He continued, "Although Daddy is very disappointed with what you have done, he is willing to give you another chance. Besides, you are getting married soon, and your husband's family will be your main concern from now on. As long as you stop targeting Xi'er, Daddy will not care about what you did in the past."
Although Duan Shishi nodded with red eyes and promised, she was extremely resentful in her heart.
They really knew it a long time ago!
I'm afraid that if I don't admit it, these people will still plan to deal with her secretly!
Oh, she is also his, Duan Hong’s, daughter, but he speaks as if she is useless and unworthy of his favor!
But she had no reason to be disappointed. These people... would eventually pay the price for their bias!
Duan Hong and Duan Sijin didn't know what Duan Shishi was thinking, but Duan Qingxi didn't miss the cruelty in her eyes and frowned deeply.
Duan Shishi...is just an ungrateful person who can never be tamed!
Afterwards, Duan Hong looked at Duan Qingxi again, his eyes obviously red.
Although he was still investigating what happened back then, it was only to give an explanation to the emperor and empress. After all, if he wanted to make Duan Qingxi the legitimate daughter of the general's mansion, he had to produce some evidence, otherwise no one would believe it.
But in his heart, Duan Qingxi had long been his and Sun Jingjing's daughter, and he didn't need any evidence at all.
"Xi'er, you...will you blame Daddy and your elder brother?"
Duan Sijin stood aside with a helpless smile. Duan Hong was just afraid that Duan Qingxi would blame himself, so he brought him along as well.
But to be honest, Duan Sijin was actually afraid that Duan Qingxi would blame him, so he looked at her nervously.
Duan Qingxi thought of countless scenes and scenarios of Duan Hong recognizing her, thinking that she would break down and cry, or that I would cry in Duan Hong's arms, or that I would hesitate and not know what to say.
But at this moment, her heart was very calm...
It’s not because I don’t care, but because I care too much, so there are not so many entanglements and calculations.
Her eyes had unknowingly turned red, and she shook her head and said, "I don't blame Daddy. I'm proud to be Daddy and Mom's daughter..."
Sun Jingjing is a skilled and gentle woman. In modern times, she is capable of both housework and housework. Even here, she is a very remarkable woman.
And Duan Hong... although he did a lot of stupid things, he was a man of integrity, loving his country, his family and his children. No one is perfect, but at least Duan Hong loved her.
Duan Qingxi had grown up after all, and this was ancient times, so even if Duan Hong wanted to hug her, he didn't dare to move, as it would be inappropriate.
The father and daughter looked at each other with great tenderness.
Duan Shishi was watching from the side, her original hatred becoming even stronger, and she even clenched her fists tightly.
…
After leaving Duan Hong's study and going out of the yard, Duan Qingxi and Duan Shishi were about to go their separate ways, while Duan Sijin was left alone in the study by Duan Hong.
Duan Shishi stopped and called out to Duan Qingxi.
Duan Qingxi looked back at her and said nothing.
Duan Shishi walked up to her and approached her, "Sister, do you still resent me in your heart?"
