Chapter 1834: Forgive Daddy
The hatred in his heart could not be described in words.
Noticing that Mu Xigui was very upset, Ning Wenhao interjected with a smile. “Fortunately, the little girl is fine, right? As long as Uncle cuts off that snake by his side.”
Nuannuan Nuannuan smiled. “Yes.”
Mu Xigui glanced at Nangong Nuannuan, then at Ning Wenhao, before quickly returning to his senses.
“You’re Ning Wenhao? The captain of the Eagle Special Forces? The young master of the Ning Family? You and Chi Yang…”
“He’s my chief,” Ning Wenhao answered with a smile.
“I’m also his brother,” Chi Yang added.
Qi Huiyin and Mu Qingling stared blankly at Ning Wenhao, Chi Yang, and Nangong Nuannuan, who seemed to be getting along rather well. The two women felt as if they had been struck by lightning.
Ning Wenhao’s surname was Ning, and he was actually the young master of a first-rate noble family of the Emperor District.
How could they have said the things they had to Ning Wenhao just now?
Mu Qingling was now especially filled with regret.
When she was young, she had been able to snatch everything from Mu Qingxuan. However, her favorite thing—the tall and handsome Brother Ye, was something she could not snatch away no matter how hard she tried.
Therefore, instead of Brother Ye becoming a rose in her life, he became a thorn by her side.
If not for Mu Qingxuan, Brother Ye would not have been washed away by the river. One of the things she could not accept even after all these years was that when Mu Qingxuan fell into the river, Brother Ye was washed away instead of her.
She thought that if Mu Qingxuan had fallen into the river and gotten washed away without Brother Ye seeing, he would not have jumped into the river to save her without hesitation—and he would not have gone missing. Then, she would have been the one to grow up with Brother Ye.
Then she might have been the future young madam of the Ning family.
However, it had all been ruined by Mu Qingxuan.
Brother Ye… No, Ning Wenhao, was back.
The one he fancied and cared for was still Mu Qingxuan.
Mu Qingling’s face, already twisted up from jealousy, twisted up more. Looking at Ning Wenhao standing in front of Mu Qingxuan’s bed and holding her favorite sunflowers, she got so jealous she almost lost her mind.
Mu Qingxuan had only been drugged and knocked out. She had not lost her virginity. However, there were still so many important people lining up to see her.
Why was Mu Qingling the one standing at the side, not receiving a single glance from any of these people?
“Qingxuan, I’m sorry. It’s all Daddy’s fault. It’s Daddy who let you down.”
Mu Xigui’s heart ached terribly. He sat beside Mu Qingxuan’s bed and reached out to hold his daughter’s hand. He placed his hand on her forehead, feeling extremely regretful.
“Dad, it’s not your fault. It’s mine. I should have told you earlier.”
Mu Xigui shook his head. “Back then, I married Qi Huiyin because I helped her. She came to the house to thank me. You noticed her treating Mu Qingling well, and your eyes filled with envy. I knew that you missed your mother very much, and I was too busy with my business to properly take care of you. That’s why I wanted her to be your stepmother. Initially, Daddy didn’t plan to marry again. He married her purely for you. But I didn’t expect her to mistreat you even though I had already set clear expectations. Qingxuan, it’s all Daddy’s fault. Please forgive Daddy.”
Mu Qingxuan thought about how she had been threatened by Qi Huiyin when she was younger. She thought about the things that Mu Qingling had snatched away and how Brother Ye was washed away by the current when he saved her. She felt so wronged. Tears began rolling down her cheeks.
