He has not remarried all these years and only has one daughter, Mo Yuqing, so naturally he has feelings for her.
Even though Mo Yuqing kept misunderstanding that he was the one who initiated the divorce, she refused to see him.
“You like Xiaolu? Isn’t that a good thing?!” Mo Wenbin walked up to her and said with a smile, “You two grew up together since you were little, and your Uncle Chen and I have been playing together since we were toddlers.”
"I watched Xiao Lu grow up. He's far more capable than most people his age, and he's sure to be very devoted. I wonder how many people will envy your love story."
As he spoke, the smile on his face suddenly froze and then gradually faded away.
Because her daughter's expression seemed a little off.
"He has a girlfriend." Mo Yuqing rested her chin on her arm, and after a while buried her face in it again.
After realizing that the matter was not as simple as children having a tantrum, Mo Wenbin became serious and his demeanor returned to its usual composure.
When Mo Yuqing was in elementary school, she also complained tearfully about Chen Lu playing with other girls.
But this time is different; the situation is vastly different, after all, they've all grown up...
"That shouldn't be the case." Mo Wenbin frowned slightly, finding it strange no matter how he thought about it. "I think Xiao Lu has always liked you."
Mo Yuqing raised her head again, and two lines of clear tears appeared on her delicate cheeks without her noticing.
"But I once made him wait for me at a restaurant for three hours."
"But I often ignore him, and I've never comforted him, no matter how forlorn he looked..."
"Later, I couldn't be bothered to reply to his messages. I only chatted with him when I wanted to..."
"He has always been such a vengeful person, but he has never talked back when I scolded him."
Her tears flowed more and more, and as soon as she loosened her tightly clenched lips, she shouted, "I made him chase me for seven whole years for nothing! I tormented him to the point that he lost all his confidence and couldn't even lift his head!"
How could he possibly still like me?
As if venting her dissatisfaction with herself, her voice became unusually loud, almost a roar, yet so powerless.
Then Mo Yuqing muttered softly:
"He's been by my side since he was little, for so long, I've really gotten used to it."
I got used to how good he was to me, so I started to take advantage of him and make demands on him.
I've always felt that maintaining the status quo is fine, and I've never dared to take that step.
At the time, I was just thinking, since Chen Lu is already by my side, why should we take on new risks together?
So that I don't end up like you...
She stopped talking halfway through her sentence.
It's meaningless; it's all just an excuse.
Mo Wenbin wanted to reach out and touch his daughter's head, but he stopped halfway and quietly withdrew his hand. He simply sat down next to Mo Yuqing, but didn't sit too close.
"Can I hug you?" Mo Yuqing asked softly, her voice trembling with tears in her eyes.
