Chapter 325


    When Zhengyuan arrived at the Repulse Bay Vi, Tongrui walked downstairs from the study to meet


    him.

    "Father, you can just call me, and I''ll go to your ce. You didn''t have toe over personally."


    Zhengyuan smiled slightly as he walked in and said, "Tongrui, I have something important to discuss


    with you."


    Tongrui poured a ss of warm water for Zhengyuan. "Father, here. What is it?"


    Zhengyuan stared at her and asked, "I won''t beat around the bush. Do you know that you are blood-


    rted with Lingye''s Uncle Zhenghui?"


    Tongrui lowered her eyes, and her face was slightly pale. She stayed silent as her hands on her thighs


    were tightly clenched.


    Zhengyuan sighed and said, "It seems like you know it. How about Lingye? Does he know about it?"


    "I''m not sure if Lingye knows about it. I haven''t thought of how I should tell him."


    "Then what are you nning to do?"


    Tongrui bit her lips. "I don''t know… Father, I''m sorry, I didn''t know I''m Uncle Zhenghui''s daughter…"


    Zhengyuan raised his hand and paused before patting Tongrui''s shoulder. "You didn''t know about it, so


    you''ve done nothing wrong. This is more like God ying a joke on us. However, this is the reality for


    you and Lingye. Since you joined the Fu family, I always thought we haven''t treated you that well, but


    now…"


    Tongrui could guess what Zhengyuan was about to say, but she could not interrupt him. She could only


    bite her lips while clenching her hands together. It was as if only by feeling this pain that her heart could


    feel better.


    "Since you and Lingye are rted, as Lingye''s father, I hope you can separate for a while."


    Tongrui''s tears fell onto her hands as she kept her eyes low.


    Zhengyuan pursed his lips and said, "I know it''s unfair to you, and I know you and Lingye have feelings


    for each other. You even gave birth to Siqi. However, I can only be a selfish father. I can protect you no


    matter what you do wrong, but you… are blood-rted with the Fu family. If the matter of you and


    Lingye being cousins is spread, your lives will be over, and even Siqi might be traumatized. This matter


    is a scandal to all of us, whether it be you, Lingye, the Fu family, or the Fu Corporation. I…"


    Tongrui took a deep breath and raised her head. "Father, I understand."


    "Tongrui, I''m sorry I can''t protect you even though you''ve entered the Fu family."


    Tongrui shook her head gently and said, "Father, you don''t have to apologize. It''s not your family. I


    respect your decisions, so I''ll do whatever you want me to."


    If her sacrifice could be exchanged for the peace of the Fu family, how could she not be willing? She


    was not selfless, but she did not want to see her two most important people get humiliated or gossiped


    by others. If it was not for her, Lingye and Siqi would not face such danger. Lingye might already have


    a wife arranged for him, and Siqi might still miss her mother on ''Mars''. However, at least they did not


    have to live in fear.


    "I''ll arrange for you to go overseas for these two days. Of course, it''s without Lingye''s knowledge. Are


    you willing to do it?"


    Tongrui''s tears fell on her hands drop by drop.


    Zhengyuan saw that her hands were already red from clenching her hands, but he still made the


    decision as he closed his eyes.


    Tongrui said in a hoarse voice, "Alright, but the visa…"


    "Don''t worry about the visa. I''ll arrange for someone to handle it within three days."


    "Can you let Siqi stay at the Repulse Bay Mansion for two days? I… I want to be with her longer, even


    if it''s only a few hours."


    "Alright, I''ll ask the driver to bring Siqi over tonight."


    As Zhengyuan left, he could not help but look behind her and sighed helplessly.


    …


    On the way back to the Fu Manor, Zhnegyuan thought of Zhao Xian''s call.


    "Zhengyuan, you should ask Lingye and Tongrui to divorce as soon as possible. Make Tongrui leave


    the North City and go to a ce where I will never see her. Otherwise, I don''t know what I''ll do."


    Zhengyuan held his walking stick while frowning. Although Zhao Xian knows too much regarding this


    matter, Zhengyuan could not stop her. After all, it was Zhenghui''s fault in the past. It had been over 20


    years, but why was this matter affecting Lingye''s marriage? They were doomed from the start...


    He did not like Tongrui''s child at first. When he learned that Tongrui was Siqi''s mother, he could not


    help but think she was shameless because he always thought that a girl who would be a surrogate


    mother for money would not be a good person. She probably only entered the Fu family because of the


    Fu family''s background.


    However, after going through so much, even when something happened to Lingye, and everyone


    thought he would not return, Tongrui still waited for him.


    After that matter, Zhengyuan''s attitude to Tongrui changed a lot. He started to ept her and gradually


    realized that she was a simple-minded girl without any schemes. She was also sincere to Lingye and


    Siqi, so he had to admit that she was a nice girl. However, he had no choice but to sacrifice her.


    …


    When Lingye returned to the Repulse Bay Vi after work, he saw Siqi''s little shoes on the shoe rack


    as he stepped in.


    "Daddy!" Once Siqi saw Lingye back, she wore her ducky slippers and ran over to hug Lingye''s thigh.


    Lingye patted her back. "Why didn''t you tell me beforeing over today?"


    Siqi raised her head and red at him. "Hmph, Daddy, do you not wee me? Are you afraid that I''ll


    snatch Mu away to sleep with her when I''m here?"


    Lingye patted her pat andughed. "At least you know that."


    "Hmph!" Siqi snorted and ran over to Tongrui angrily. "Mu, Daddy doesn''t wee me here. Am I really


    Daddy''s child? Could it be that I''m picked up from the trash?"


    Lingye walked in, and as he took off his coat, he teased her, "Well, you weren''t picked up from the


    trash but from the roads."


    Siqi was speechless. Was this really her biological father?


    Tongrui touched Siqi''s face and said, "Stop teasing Sweetheart."


    Lingye walked over to Tongrui and said to her in a low voice, "I indeed picked you up from the roads."


    This was also a kind of fate.


    Tongrui was taken aback. "Did we meet each other in the past?"


    "Three years ago, you carried your father''s urn, bumped into my car, and fainted. I was the one who


    sent you to the hospital. That day, Siqi and I were in the ward next to you, but you were gone when I


    went to see you."
