Chapter 274: Daddy, Don’t You Miss Qi’er?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Did that pain cause you to suffer for a lifetime?

Lu Jinwen took a few puffs of the cigarette and frowned, his face impassive and lacking the slightest hint of a reaction. “Gu Tianling, it’s not important whether I’m in pain or not. The important thing is that you were a supporting character 30 years ago, and you are still one today. Nothing has changed.”

“You!” Gu Tianling clenched his fists tightly.

“Daddy.” A sweet voice was heard as Lu Qi’er arrived with Lu Yan and An’an behind her.

Hearing the voices, Huo Yanmei turned around. When she saw the weak figure sheltered behind Lu Yan, her heart wrenched in pain.

“An’an.” Huo Yanmei walked forward.

An’an looked at Huo Yanmei blankly, her eyes blank and emotionless.

Seeing her lack of response, Huo Yanmei suddenly teared up, the twisting regret permeating deep from within her heart. A girl who loved smiling, who loved clinging onto her and following her around, all the while calling her, Mommy, Mommy. To think she had now transformed and behaved like she was autistic.

After she had gone through experienced human trafficking when she was only five, it had left a deep trauma in her heart. Her little girl...

She didn’t have good mental health and it had left some deep scars inside.

Lu Yan looked at Huo Yanmei with a poker face, blocking in front of An’an to protect her.

From her position behind his strong back, An’an quietly looked down and her eyes focused on the silhouettes moving on the floor. The lights along the corridor had lengthened her shadow significantly.

Out of the group of them, the happiest person was Lu Qi’er. With a radiant smile on her face, she ran towards Lu Jinwen excitedly. “Daddy, why didn’t you meet me when you’ve arrived in Karghalik. Didn’t you miss Qi’er?”

Lu Jinwen gave Lu Qi’er a cold-eyed stare, stubbing the cigarette in the bin. “Didn’t I send Ah Yan here to accompany you?”

That was different.

Lu Qi’er pouted her red lips unhappily, feeling that her Daddy didn’t love her.

Before she turned ten years old, she had grown up in the Lin family home and not the Lu family home in the Capital. It was only after she turned ten years old that she was brought back to the Lu family. It was completely different, this new home was ice-cold, without any warmth and humanity at all.

Though he was her Daddy, Lu Jinwen didn’t spend much time together with her. Since she was young, she hadn’t even met Lu Jinwen once a month, let alone received from him any form of fatherly love.

He also didn’t plan for her future and marriage. If her Daddy had put in even the tiniest bit of effort into helping her, she wouldn’t have ended up in such a plight. All these years, she was dependent on herself.

“Daddy.” Lu Qi’er whined and tried to tug on Lu Jinwen’s arm in a playful manner.

“Qi’er, stop messing around.” Seeing her behavior, Lu Yan walked over and pulled Lu Qi’er’s arm back.

Lu Jinwen gave Lu Yan a gaze. “Ah Yan, I’ll trust you to handle everything here.”

“Alright.” Lu Yan nodded.

Barely sparing a further glance at anyone in the corridor, Lu Jinwen left without another word.

Daddy left, just like that?

Looking at Daddy’s back view, Lu Qi’er complained to Lu Yan, aggrievedly, “Brother, why does Daddy not like me, is it because Daddy doesn’t love my Mommy?”

Her mommy was Lin Xuanji, who wasn’t her Daddy’s most loved one.

Lu Yan unconsciously smiled, “Qi’er, don’t speculate the elders’ matters. You should just enjoy your life as the eldest daughter of the Lu family. What more do you want?”

“...”

Lu Qi’er didn’t fancy Lu Yan at all and didn’t look highly of him. In her eyes, he was just a little beggar her Daddy had picked up from the streets. Now that the police and the underworld addressed him as ‘Master Yan’, he really thought of himself as a big boss?

“Hmph, brother. You and Daddy both don’t like me and bully me. I know of Daddy’s secret, Daddy...”

Lu Qi’er’s voice suddenly couldn’t be heard. Lu Yan suddenly applied more force on her wrist and gripped on to her arm, his fingers as hard as steel.

Lu Qi’er was in so much pain that she almost cried and her eyes reddened in resentment. After being the beloved daughter of the Lu family for so many years, she has never met anyone who treated her like that.
