Zhou Qinian always doted on his daughter, and when he saw her being bullied, he went over and was about to attack Mo Xiaotuo.
Luo Chen quickly stepped in front of Zhou Qinian and said fiercely, "You dare to touch my wife!"
"Your wife? Luo Chen, you!" Zhou Yue looked at Luo Chen in great surprise.
Zhou Tingting finally saw her father, whom she had missed for many years but had never met. She had imagined their first meeting countless times, but she never expected it to be under these circumstances.
"Zhou Qinian, do you know me?!" she suddenly cried out in anguish.
Mo Xiaotuo then realized that this woman was the one Zhou Tingting had photographed before, and the man in front of him was Tingting's biological father.
Zhou Qinian was thinking about Mo Xiaotuo's identity when he heard someone call his name and turned around. That one glance almost made him collapse.
The girl in front of me looks exactly like my first love. Could this be...?
"You heartless bastard! You abandoned my mother for money back then, then gave her hope again, but in the end you couldn't even protect her. You made my mother suffer for so many years, now you're getting your comeuppance, hahaha! You shameless daughter are just like your wife. It's a pity that my Xiao Tuo isn't as weak as my mother; she won't give up her position." Zhou Tingting said domineeringly, glaring fiercely at Zhou Tong.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Tong immediately remembered what her mother had said.
She realized she had just been hit by that vixen's daughter, and hurriedly took out her phone to call her mother.
Zhou Qinian walked step by step to Zhou Tingting, his eyes red, and he apologized with a face full of self-reproach: "I'm sorry, it's my fault as a father that made your mother suffer for so many years."
Over the years, he has never given up looking for Lin Yanran. When he learned that Lin Yanran was pregnant back then, he almost went crazy.
He searched many places where she might appear, but found no trace of them. There had been no news of them for years, and he was almost in despair.
"Where is your mother? I..." He was about to say something more when he heard Zhou Tong shout.
"Dad, you only have one daughter, if you dare to acknowledge this bastard, then don't acknowledge me as your daughter!" Zhou Tong shouted loudly from the side when she heard her father was about to throw away the bastard.
Mo Xiaotuo noticed that more and more people were coming and going. Seeing that Zhou Tingting's face was swollen, she was afraid that things would get too big and make headlines. She stepped forward and whispered, "Tingting, let's leave first. It's rush hour now, and we'll be on the front page tomorrow."
Um!
Zhou Tingting wiped away her tears, nodded, and looked up to find Zhou Yue looking at her.
Zhou Yue frowned deeply. He knew that the mother and daughter were a source of pain for his father. If his mother made a scene because of his father's situation, she would likely suffer the consequences.
Before Mo Xiaotuo could pull Zhou Tingting away, Zhou Qinian's wife, Wang Shuangshuang, rushed up.
Upon seeing that face, which was almost identical to Lin Yanran's, she was so frightened that she took a few steps back and, without saying a word, stepped forward to attack Zhou Tingting.
After realizing what had happened, Zhou Qinian stepped forward, grabbed Wang Shuangshuang's hand, and shoved her to the ground: "Wang Shuangshuang, let me tell you, you used to be able to rely on your family's power to bully me, but that won't happen again. From now on, if I find out you've ever laid a hand on them again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"You damned heartless man! If it weren't for our Wang family, you wouldn't be where you are today! I'll beat you to death!" Wang Shuangshuang turned into a shrew and went forward to fight with Zhou Qinian.
Seeing this, Luo Chen stepped forward and took Mo Xiaotuo's hand. Mo Xiaotuo pulled Zhou Tingting, and the three of them got into the car, leaving them here to continue their drama.
Once in the car, Mo Xiaotuo sat in the back and comforted Zhou Tingting.
Zhou Tingting just cried silently, not knowing how to explain it to her mother when she got back.
“The Zhou family’s influence is considerable now, so you can’t stay there anymore. Go back and talk to your mother about this, pack your things, and I’ll arrange a place for you to stay.” Luo Chen knew that Zhou Tingting was Mo Xiaotuo’s best friend at school, and also, in a sense, Zhou Qinian’s mistress.
The Zhou family has been in frequent contact with the Feng family recently, which suggests they intend to cooperate with the Feng family. It is necessary to take action to cause trouble for the Zhou family.
Seeing that Mr. Luo was willing to help them, Zhou Tingting was afraid of putting Xiao Tuo in a difficult position, so she dared not agree.
"Just listen to Ah Chen's arrangements. Nothing is more important than the safety of you and your daughter." Mo Xiaotuo knew that Zhou Tingting didn't want to put her in a difficult position.
Hearing Xiao Tuo say that, Zhou Tingting dared to accept Mr. Luo's kindness: "Thank you, I'll go back to see my mother first."
She was more worried about her mother's emotional breakdown, and nervously held Xiao Tuo's hand.
Mo Xiaotuo patted the back of her hand and said considerately, "Don't worry, I'll go with you."
"Thank you!" Zhou Tingting leaned on Xiao Tuo's shoulder and didn't say anything more.
Luo Chen asked Zhou Tingting for an address. It was rush hour, so he drove around several streets before finally dropping her off at her apartment building.
Mo Xiaotuo accompanied Zhou Tingting upstairs, while he sat in the car smoking.
This is an old residential area where people and vehicles are not separated, and there aren't many cars in the area, indicating that it's a working-class neighborhood.
Mo Xiaotuo followed Zhou Tingting into the room. When Lin Yanran saw Mo Xiaotuo coming over, she got up and prepared to cook a couple more dishes: "Xiaotuo hasn't been here for a long time. Auntie will cook for you."
“Auntie, please don’t be busy. Tingting… she has something very important to tell you.” Mo Xiaotuo pulled the auntie down to sit.
Lin Yanran then noticed that her daughter's expression was very strange, and a bad feeling crept into her heart.
"Mom, I..." Zhou Tingting hesitated before speaking.
"Speak up. Since it's happened, we still have to face it." Mo Xiaotuo nudged Zhou Tingting.
Zhou Tingting didn't dare look her mother in the eye, and with her head down, she stammered out what had just happened.
Hearing her daughter's words, Lin Yanran burst into tears. She sat there with a pained expression, remaining silent for a long time.
"Mom, don't scare me, I'm scared!" Zhou Tingting was terrified when she saw her mother like this.
Lin Yanran slowly turned her gaze to her daughter's face and said with a look of self-reproach, "It's all my fault for being useless. I couldn't protect you properly, and I couldn't give you a better environment to grow up in."
"Mom, don't say these things. I didn't do this to acknowledge him; I did it to get revenge for you. I never expected it to turn out like this. Mom, please don't overthink things. Mr. Luo said he'll find us another place." Zhou Tingting held her mother's hand, her face filled with panic.
"Mr. Luo, is he Xiao Tuo's current husband?" Lin Yanran looked at Mo Xiao Tuo and forced a smile as she said gratefully, "Thank you, Xiao Tuo. The Zhou family is too powerful; they are not people that ordinary people can afford to offend. We cannot drag you down with them."
“Mom, Mr. Luo is the boss of Chen’s Group. He… he can help us.” Zhou Tingting knew her mother was worried, but that woman was so vicious back then, she was afraid that the woman would do something desperate.
