Sze Lingyun was not a girl who cried easily. She had learned from a young age that tears meant nothing.
It was said that children cried often and at everything, so people only comforted them when they were in the mood to. Otherwise, they would be left to cry themselves hoarse, or even mute. No one would pay them any mind.
However, the people of the Wu family and her father… especially her father… had so quickly broken down the walls she had been building around her heart her whole life.
“Dad, you haven’t slept for many days. Nothing much is going on here right now. You’ve already arranged for someone to keep an eye on Old Madam Zhou. You should go back and sleep.”
Wu Jingzhong had been really sleepy in the Ministry of Justice’s interrogation room. However, after emerging and seeing his daughter, he felt like he could not fall asleep ever again.
He really wanted to use today to settle all the grievances his daughter had suffered over the years and send all the bad guys who had ever bullied her to prison one by one.
Wu Jingzhong’s hand had remained on Sze Lingyun’s shoulder this whole time. He said with a smile, “Daddy isn’t sleepy. Daddy can’t be sleepy at all after seeing you.”
“Even if you’re not sleepy, you still have to rest!”
Looking at his daughter’s angry and concerned little eyes, Wu Jingzhong felt like his adopted son and his biological daughter were indeed different.
He had never raised his daughter, not even for a day yet, but she could be so heartbroken over him and care for him so much. Meanwhile, he had given his adopted son so much, and all that guy did was fight for ‘revenge’ and set enemies against the Wu family.
“Dad, get the boss of Rongxing Company over here. I want to ask him why he sent people to kill you while trying to get an ugly old cow like himself to eat young grass like my fine daughter here.”
Sze Lingyun, “…”
A lot of things had happened in the past few days. Her world had changed drastically. She forgot that she had almost been killed.
Soon, under Wu Jingzhong’s orders, Li Qiongan was brought over.
He still looked very arrogant. He was brought in arguing with the prison guards.
After entering the interrogation room and seeing Sze Lingyun, Li Qiongan was so angry that his neck turned red. He wanted to curse out loud. However, after seeing Chi Yang, Nangong Nuannuan, and Wu Pingting, Li Qiongan, whose mouth was wide open, swallowed the words he wanted to yell.
He did not forget why he was arrested.
Chi Yang was an officer, and Nangong Nuannuan, who was beside him, was someone who could slap half of a person’s teeth out of their mouth. The scariest person there was Wu Pingting. She said that she was the daughter of the richest family in Sea District, and she…
As he wondered if Wu Pingting had lied to him, he noticed a man sitting next to Sze Lingyun.
After all, he worked in engineering, so he often dealt with the Construction Department and the Transport Department. He paid a fair amount of attention to any news from the administrative department.
When he saw the man’s face clearly, Li Qiongan’s eyes bulged.
He often saw this man on the administrative department’s channel and on the television news.
This man was the eldest son of the Wu family and the governor of Sea District.
Was Wu Pingting really the daughter of the richest family in Sea District?
Li Qiongan swallowed the dirty words he wanted to say. He instead said to Sze Lingyun…
