Lu Jijun did not expect that Lu Qingxin would follow him there. He asked, shocked, “Qingxin, what are you doing here?”
“Dad, I know. I know that Ye Tianxin is your daughter,” Lu Qingxin responded carefully.
She was afraid that Lu Jijun would scold her. She lowered her head as tears formed in her eyes. Her slender shoulders slightly shook.
“Qingxin, I did not mean to hide it from you,” Lu Jijun explained.
He knew that his daughter was an obedient girl. It was just that he did not expect that his daughter would be so understanding and behave gracefully in the face of such a situation. He was very touched.
Compared to Lu Qingxin, Ye Tianxin seemed too stubborn.
However, it was not her fault.
She did not have any parents to look after her, so she was brought up by her grandmother. It was inevitable that her grandmother spoiled her. Perhaps that’s why she lacked discipline at times.
In the future, when he brought Ye Tianxin home with him, he would definitely make her learn from Qingxin.
Girls should be gentle and adorable. They should always do things with grace.
“It’s alright, Dad. I understand. Elder Sister is your daughter, and you hope that she will agree to live with us. I know that, too. Dad, don’t worry. I will help you convince Mum and Elder Sister…”
Ye Tianxin saw that Lu Qingxin and Lu Jijun were having quite a long conversation, so she pulled Li Qingcang away and prepared to leave.
The father-and-daughter duo were exactly the same. They ignored what Ye Tianxin had said.
They just thought that Ye Tianxin would want what the Lu family had and that as long as they welcomed her, she would give up everything she had and run to them happily.
“Tianxin, don’t go.”
Lu Jijun ran after them and stood in front of Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang.
Lu Qingxin ran over there as well and said sweetly, “Elder Sister, please listen to what Dad has to say. Dad has always been very worried about Grandma’s illness. He has been asking people to find the best doctors and the best hospitals. Elder Sister, Grandma brought you up. I know that you want her to be safe and healthy. We want that, too.”
Lu Jijun then chimed in, “Tianxin, you can’t do anything about Grandma’s illness alone. I know someone who knows a specialist. We can arrange for a team of specialists to treat your grandmother. You are so young. They won’t even allow you to sign a consent for Grandma’s operation. I don’t care what you think about me, but I think we should put Grandma’s illness first. We can discuss other things later. Are you okay with it?”
Ye Tianxin clenched her fists. They were itching to hit someone.
She didn’t care who; she just wanted to release her anger.
“You don’t have to worry about Grandma’s illness. You don’t have to worry about her medical bills, the specialists, or even the consent. Mr. Lu, please take your daughter with you and leave. I think my grandmother will live a little longer if she doesn’t see the both of you…”
Lu Qingxin disagreed, shaking her head, “Elder Sister, you don’t have money. How are you going to pay for Grandma’s treatment and hospitalization? If Grandma finds out that you have sold your dignity just to pay for medical bills, she will be very sad. Elder Sister, the Lu family has money, and you are Dad’s daughter…my sister. Dad, Mom, and I, we can’t just stand by and do nothing.”
Li Qingcang harrumphed coldly. Lu Jijun had not been there when Ye Tianxin needed a father.
Yet, he suddenly showed up when Ye Tianxin was already old and no longer needed a father. It really made one suspicious of his motives.
