Chapter 438: You promised to believe in science, yet you hit me with superpowers???
Inside the Tang family study.
Looking at her stubborn husband, Xu Xu Xu Shuyun’s brows were practically knitted into a "chuan" character.
She really wanted to slap the man across the face a few times, just to wake this kidney-deficient old boy up...
If it were anyone else, she might just let it slide.
But Lin Xuan is extraordinary now; even she, a Chosen One, is wary of him, yet this old boy still harbors such intense hostility toward him.
If this causes her nephew to become dissatisfied, there’s no telling if he might secretly sabotage the Tang family...
To say nothing of the long term, if Lin Xuan simply leaked some group secrets to the Tang family’s rival companies, that would be enough to give them a real headache.
Sigh, ┓(;′_`)┏~~~
Encountering a pig-teammate who holds you back is truly exhausting~~~
Xu Xu Xu Shuyun finally understood what it meant that...
With great power comes great responsibility.
Even as the Destiny Aunt, possessing a one-of-a-kind superpower, she still has to worry herself sick for this family.
[Forget it, there’s a road before the mountain, and the boat will straighten when it reaches the bridge!]
[When we arrive at the hospital tomorrow, I’ll find a way to handle things as they come and try my best to ease the relationship between the uncle and nephew.]
[Sigh, in the end, I’m the one carrying it all on my own!]
[No one can understand the melancholy of a Chosen One like me; perhaps... heroes are always lonely...]
Xu Xu Xu Shuyun let out a deep sigh, her face full of tragic heroism.
Immediately after, she glared at her useless, kidney-deficient husband.
Amidst his bewildered gaze, she turned around angrily and headed back to the room to sleep.
Actually, it wasn't that she hadn't thought about telling Tang Guoan about the [eavesdropping on inner thoughts].
But Xu Xu Xu Shuyun discovered that whenever the content involved her superpower, her voice would involuntarily turn into...
"Ah~ ah ah~~~"
In the dark, there seemed to be some mysterious force preventing her from revealing anything about [inner thoughts].
This made Xu Xu Xu Shuyun feel shocked and awestruck, and it completely extinguished her idea of telling outsiders about her superpower...
On the other side.
Tang Guoan hurriedly got up and chased into the couple's room.
"Wait for me! Wife!"
"You haven't told me in detail about our child's condition yet?"
".........."
Soon, silence returned outside the room.
And at this moment, neither Tang Guoan nor his wife noticed a figure flashing past the corner of the corridor...
The next morning.
Tang Guoan, sporting dark circles under his eyes, got up early and, in a rush, followed his wife to the hospital.
"We're here! Our daughter... is right inside."
Under Xu Xu Xu Shuyun's guidance, Tang Guoan finally stood still in front of a hospital room door.
At the thought that the person inside was his own biological daughter whom he had never met...
Even Tang Guoan, who was over fifty, couldn't help but feel a bit nervous at this moment.
But he also knew that some things were unavoidable and had to be faced eventually, so he gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and pushed the door open...
As soon as he entered, a burst of laughter greeted him.
Tang Guoan looked closely and saw two women and one man inside, the three of them chatting and laughing...
One of the stunning girls was sitting in a wheelchair, with that beastly nephew of his standing behind her.
However, Tang Guoan's gaze only lingered on the two of them for a few seconds before being instantly drawn to the thin, gaunt girl on the hospital bed.
Alike!
So alike!!!
With just one glance, Tang Guoan had almost no doubt about the girl's identity.
He was 100% absolutely certain that this girl was his biological daughter!!!!!
Because her appearance and mannerisms were almost identical to when he first met Xu Xu Xu Shuyun, only more youthful than the wife in his memory, her physique was smaller, and her overall spirit was significantly worse.
Just looking at Chu Ling's rough palms, one could infer what kind of arduous life she had been living...
Recalling what Xu Xu Xu Shuyun had told him last night...
About the miserable state of Chu Ling's life over the years, Tang Guoan's eyes stung, and his expression was moved.
Originally, just hearing about it had made him feel terrified and hard to imagine.
But when he truly saw his daughter's frail appearance with his own eyes, the visual impact was something no language could describe; it was pale in comparison...
At this moment, Tang Guoan trembled all over, his lips quivering, completely at a loss for how to speak to Chu Ling.
Finally, he gritted his teeth, his eyes reddening, and squeezed out a few words with all his might:
"Child, I... I am your father..."
"My father..."
Facing the middle-aged man who had suddenly burst into the room, Chu Ling murmured to herself, feeling a bit at a loss.
From the moment she saw Xu Xu Xu Shuyun following the man, and felt the faint sense of closeness Tang Guoan gave her...
Actually, Chu Ling had already vaguely guessed it in her heart, and now it was completely confirmed.
She froze in place, staring blankly at the man in front of her who claimed to be her biological father.
He looked to be in his early forties, with a scholarly temperament.
He was tall and straight, wearing a crisp suit, a black tie, and his leather shoes were polished like mirrors.
Under the morning light from the window, his face showed a calmness and depth forged by the passage of time.
The corners of his eyes were slightly wrinkled, but it didn't detract from that unique charm; it was as if the traces of time had gently brushed across his face, bestowing upon him a mature and wise temperament.
Such a well-dressed, mature man was far taller, more imposing, and more secure than the father she had imagined in her childhood...
"Yes, Xiao Ling! He is my husband, and also your biological father!"
"We are here to take you home."
Xu Xu Xu Shuyun took a step forward, interrupting the touching scene of the father and daughter meeting for the first time.
"Yes, yes, yes! Child! Let's go home, Dad will take you home, I've heard the whole story from your mother..."
"I'm sorry! It's Dad who failed you, it's all Dad's fault. If Dad had been more careful back then, perhaps that vicious couple wouldn't have succeeded..."
"Child, you've suffered all these years. Please give Dad a chance, come home with Dad!"
"Dad will compensate you as much as possible, from now on with Dad here, I will never let anyone hurt a single hair on your head again..."
"............"
Tang Guoan, having regained his composure, his eyes moist, patted his chest repeatedly to assure her.
Listening to the concerned tone and worried eyes of her biological parents, Chu Ling, who had never experienced family affection, felt a constant warmth in her heart.
"Go home..."
If it were the old her, if it were the her who hadn't eavesdropped on the inner thoughts, facing such a long-awaited invitation, she probably would have agreed impatiently...
Unfortunately, she knew the future, knew her fate after returning to the Tang family, which made it impossible for her to treat this matter with a normal heart.
If only I could have known in advance what would happen after returning to the Tang family...
Especially the specific reason that led to my [hanging] suicide!
Thinking this, Chu Ling involuntarily turned her head and fixed her gaze on Lin Xuan.
To outsiders, she seemed to be asking for Lin Xuan's opinion, but in reality, she was pricking up her ears, desperately trying to pry into Lin Xuan's inner thoughts...
"Go home, cousin! Haven't you always longed to have family? I believe Uncle and the others will take good care of you!"
"Don't worry! If anything happens, you can also contact me or Su Su Su Su Qingge, we will both help you."
"........"
Seeing Chu Ling looking at him with trust, Lin Xuan smiled gently on the surface, but was triumphant in his heart.
[Yosh~~~ stupid cousin~~]
[It seems I have finally completely gained your trust and favor, it really made me wait a long time!]
[Next, it's time to use you to achieve my plan! Hehehehe...]
