Chapter 2685  : He used to be so good to her, but he hated her so much now

If it wasn’t for the fact that the old master still had hope for Xia rushuang, he wouldn’t have to give him such a blow.

To be so cruel to an old man, especially to his own father, was not something he wanted to do.

However, the old man needed to wake up. He had brought disaster upon his family many years ago, and he did not want the same thing to happen again.

The reunion of the Xia family today was too rare. Xia Anlan would not allow anyone to ruin it.

The old master’s tears fell like rain, and it was too late for regrets.

What he had done was too disgraceful. He had told Xiao’ AI many times that he had to thank Xia rushuang no matter what. She was the one who had traveled thousands of miles to Rong city and told them that Xiao’ AI was still alive. All these years, rushuang had never stopped searching for Xiao’ AI.

He didn’t know how Xiao’ AI felt when he said that.

However, Xiao’ AI had never said a word about it. She only smiled at the side.

The old man really felt that he was too ashamed to see his daughter. What had he done?

Xia Anlan took a deep breath and suppressed the violent anger in his heart.

“Father, I really didn’t want you to know about this,” he said.”Xiao’ AI has never spoken ill of Xia rushuang in front of you. No matter how many times she’s been hurt by Xia rushuang, she’s never complained to you because she doesn’t want you to be sad. She doesn’t want you to blame yourself and be in pain after finding out the truth. But what about you? time and time again, you’ve been rubbing salt in your daughter’s wounds.”

“Don’t say it, don’t say it ...”The old man shook his head while crying.

He was so regretful that he wanted to die. He was the one who had caused the disaster in his family. He wanted to redeem himself and make up for it, but he didn’t know what to do.

Xia Anlan sighed.”I don’t have to say it, but you ... I hope you can understand from now on that some people should see things clearly. You should know how difficult it is for a family to have the reunion they have now. Don’t make Xiao’ AI sad again.”

He knew that his father had good intentions back then, but one wrong decision of his had almost caused the entire family to be consigned to eternal damnation.

There was no medicine for regret in this world. However, Xia Anlan hoped that his father would not say such foolish things again.

He didn’t want to hear words like “thank Xia rushuang” or “let her come over for dinner” ever again.

“I know, I know ... I know everything now ...” The old man nodded.

It was as if their father and son roles had been reversed. Xia Anlan was now in the position to teach the other party a lesson.

Xia Anlan’s heart ached when he saw his old father in this state.

He bent over and helped the old man up.”Father, we’re a family. Even if we did something wrong, it’s forgivable. It’s because of this that Xiao’ AI has never blamed you. When we go back, everything will be normal. You don’t have to apologize to Xiao’ AI. You just need to treat her better, and even better. If you feel guilty, you can make it up to her ...”

The old man’s voice was so hoarse that he could barely speak. He kept nodding his head. He had been wrong for so many years, but only today did he realize how wrong he was.

He used to treat Xia rushuang so well, but now he hated her so much that he wanted to kill her with his own hands.

In the days that he had lost Xiao’ AI, he had treated Xia rushuang as if she were his own daughter. He had doted on her and taken care of her. He had given Xiao’ AI all the fatherly love that he was supposed to give her. When Xiao’ AI needed a father the most, he had been by Xia rushuang’s side.
