Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Qie Wang wasn’t sure how to feel when he saw Mingzhu’s face, which looked like Yan Shanyue’s.
Even though he knew she was his daughter, he did not have a real relationship with her whatsoever.
!!
The two of them were no different from strangers.
After Mingzhu’s reprimandation, he wanted to return to living a normal life, but he needed a cause so that he could get out of the predicament; he needed a means for him to get everything back to normal again.
Mingzhu happened to be the pretext for him to do that.
To his surprise, reality was not treating him well after he had gotten out of the mental hospital.
He had lost everything. His son, wife, father, and friends did not want to have anything to do with him. He had even been replaced as the hospital director.
It was as though the whole world had forgotten about his existence.
“Young man, I’m not the one you are looking for. Mingzhu didn’t need me to make up for the lost time. It’d be better for me to stay out of her life. That way, she will be happier.”
Ye Zhizhou sneered silently. It was as he expected; Qie Wang was a coward who would only escape from his problems and responsibilities.
“Mr. Qie, if that’s what you think, then I have nothing to say anymore. I used to think that a father would always prioritize his children no matter what. What more can I say to someone who doesn’t want to care for his child? Well, it is understandable to think you have nothing to do with Mingzhu. You never raised her, after all. The part that disappoints me the most is that you’ve normalized all these things. Do you not feel any remorse toward her at all? If it weren’t for such an irresponsible father like you, Mingzhu could’ve lived a happy life…”
A gleam flashed across Qie Wang’s eyes.
He knew what Ye Zhizhou said was right.
He was guilty because everyone thought it was his fault that Mingzhu didn’t get to live a good life.
He was the one responsible for Mingzhu’s miserable life.
Still, he had been tricked by someone else back then as well.
Why did no one stand in his shoes and empathize with him?
He was a victim, too. He was nothing but a pawn.
“Mingzhu said that the best thing I can do for her is to get out of her life.”
Qie Wang’s voice sounded a little lonely.
He recalled the good life he used to have, where he had a stable career, a happy family, and friends everywhere.
Back then, he used to be a spirited person.
It only hurt all the more when compared to his current situation.
Qie Wang could not help but mock himself for losing everything in his life.
“Who didn’t want a fatherly love? Who didn’t yearn for their father to be someone they could rely on? Mingzhu said that only because you never showed her your care and love. Mr. Qie, you have to consider what is the best for Mingzhu.”
Ye Zhizhou had given Qie Wang sufficient pep talks and hints. Hence, he believed that the latter would fall into his trap soon.
Gu Yancheng was his pawn, and so was Qie Wang.
Furthermore, Qie Wang was more important as a pawn.
“I’ll think about it.”
Ye Zhizhou waved at Qie Wang and ordered a cocktail. Then he said, “Think about it, Mr. Qie. Remember that you are a father. After being absent from Mingzhu’s life for the past two decades, do you still want to remain the same kind of father for the rest of her life? Look at what Xie Xuning did. He had gone all out in giving Ye Tianxin the best of everything. Qie Wang, are you happy with being inferior to Xie Xuning?”
