Chapter 522: A Weight Off His Chest
Translator:?Larbre Studio?Editor:?Larbre Studio
After listening to Ye Xun’s words of comfort, Huo Yunshen felt as if a weight had been lifted off his chest.
Ye Xun was right. He still had the chance to rebuild his relationship with Ying Bao.
No matter how long it would take, he would put in an effort to get along with his child.
He lowered his hand and let out a sigh of relief. He thanked Ye Xun sincerely, “Ye Xun, I’m really grateful to you. Thank you.”
Ye Xun puffed his cigarette and exhaled smoke. He shifted his posture and then looked at Huo Yunshen, his head lowered. “Don’t say that, Boss. I’m your subordinate and it is my honor and duty to serve you. It is you who saved your daughter. You shouldn’t blame yourself.”
Being able to serve Zeus, the supreme leader of the JS Group, was the glory of Ye Xun’s life.
From a hostile enemy to a subservient subordinate, Ye Xun had been slowly won over by Huo Yunshen’s character and charisma. He was willing to become his follower.
…
In the ward, Xu Xiyan kept her daughter company, chatting with her.
She told Ying Bao everything about how the bad uncles had deceived her and committed the crime. She turned it into a simple and easy-to-understand story for Ying Bao.
After listening to the story, Ying Bao contemplated for a moment. Then, she asked, “The bad things were done by the bad uncles. So, Daddy didn’t become bad?”
“Of course not. Have you forgotten? Daddy is the best daddy in the world. How could he hurt you? He still loves you very much.”
Xu Xiyan patiently explained over and over again, trying to dispel her daughter’s resentment towards Huo Yunshen.
“…” Ying Bao said nothing. She was probably thinking about her mother’s words in her heart.
“Listen, Ying Bao. Mommy is going to tell you a little secret!”
“What little secret?”
Xu Xiyan held Ying Bao’s little face in her hands and gazed into her big and bright eyes. She said to her earnestly, “Didn’t you used to ask Mommy before who your daddy is and who fathered you? Now Mommy can tell you that you’re not a bastard child. Daddy is your biological father and you’re his biological daughter.”
“…”
This secret was not little at all for Ying Bao. It was a very big secret.
Mommy said that I am the biological daughter of Daddy, is this true?
“Mommy, are you lying to Baby?”
Ying Bao still found it hard to believe. If he was really her father, why hadn’t Mommy told her in the first place?
Back then, when Xu Xiyan had first introduced Huo Yunshen as her daddy, Xu Xiyan did not mention that he was her biological father. Ying Bao had misunderstood and thought that it was Uncle Dimples who had given her a special deal and given himself away for free.
“No. Mommy is not lying. Think about the little dimples on your cheeks. Don’t you think they’re the same as Daddy’s dimples? You’ve inherited them from him. Daddy has passed his loveliest dimples to you. With this little pair of dimples, Daddy can find you quickly and accurately no matter where Ying Bao goes. This is the secret mark shared between you and your daddy, understand?”
Ying Bao lifted a chubby little hand and touched her face. She then thought about the dimples on Daddy’s face, finally believing what her mother had said.
That’s right, she was the biological daughter of Daddy. It’s no mistake!
Ying Bao’s spirits improved and she was beginning to show a little excitement. She asked, “Mommy, where is Daddy now?”
She was already looking forward to seeing her biological daddy.
Due to Xu Xiyan’s patient explanation and persuasion, Ying Bao was gradually forgetting her fear of Huo Yunshen and began to accept him again.
Considering that Ying Bao just got out of critical condition, she needed rest. Xu Xiyan gently coaxed her, “You should lie down and sleep. After you wake up, Daddy will come and see you.”
“Okay.”
Ying Bao closed her eyes, falling asleep almost instantly due to her weakness.
