Chapter 114 You are a good father, I just want to follow you
"Brother Du, do you think I'm sick?"
"Why do you ask?"
"I always feel like I can't do anything right, I'm not a good father, and I always put her in danger. And today, I seem to have discovered... I may have killed a girl without realizing it."
"Xiao Feng, I can't give you an answer to this question. I can only tell you that sometimes what you see and think may not be true. But at least to me, you are a very good person."
In the car, Jiang Feng leaned against the back seat with his eyes closed, and Du Kang's words echoed in his mind.
What you see is not necessarily the truth, let alone what you haven’t seen.
"Mr. Jiang, we're here."
Jiang Feng opened the car door and got out.
In the room, Man Yue was lying on the bed with lifeless eyes, staring at the snow-white ceiling above her head in a daze.
The system asked her: "Host, are you moved?"
Man Yue: "Why should I be moved? You always seem to be trying to sway me."
System: "That's not what I meant. I just think the hero is stuck in a vicious circle. He believes he indirectly caused the death of your nonexistent mother, and he shouldn't bear the consequences."
"Heh." Man Yue closed her eyes and sneered: "But it's not just me who caused all this. Regardless of whether he is Jiang Feng from the past three lives, can you guarantee that if I were just a so-called childhood sweetheart now, would he still treat me like this?"
"Tong, I don't know how long I can live, maybe one day, maybe a year. Is it too much to ask me to live a good life for myself for once?"
Jiang Feng cares about her so much now, simply because she is his daughter and they are tied by blood. If not, what if it is not? With his personality, he will still treat her the same way as before, and maybe one day she will die because of him again.
She gave herself her current identity, and she just wanted to live a good life for the rest of her life.
He just blamed himself a little, and didn't even get a scratch on his skin. Compared with the suffering she had suffered before, what was it?
Compared to her previous helplessness, everyone is now on Jiang Feng's side. His current difficulties will not bother him for long. After a while, he will be a powerful second-generation rich man, and everyone will protect him.
And she can only indulge herself because she is Jiang Feng's daughter. She wants to be selfish for once, and ignore everything, even if there is no tomorrow.
The feeling of having her soul torn apart was too painful. Before that, she also wanted to taste sugar once.
The system fell silent, looking at Man Yue's almost numb face, its light dimming.
Outside the door, Jiang Feng's hand that was about to knock on the door suddenly stopped, and the courage he had mustered disappeared in an instant.
The child says she doesn’t remember her mother. If she knew that her mother was killed by her father, would she hate him?
Jiang Feng put down his hand and returned to the room.
"Xiao Feng, your uncle found some information. You can take a look."
Qi Yu came in from outside and put the computer in front of Jiang Feng.
"The other party might be the Jiang family. They were equally powerful as us in the business world back then, but three years ago they immigrated to the UK for some reason. I heard their business empire has expanded significantly in recent years, and some even say they've established an underground faction there."
"Xiao Feng, you have to be prepared. There was indeed a third daughter in their family who died young. I heard that it was because she was too young and had difficulty giving birth."
The cup next to Jiang Feng was suddenly knocked over, and he said in a calm voice, "So, what they said might be true?"
He really killed Man Yue's mother.
"Not necessarily." Qi Yu held his hand and said, "Xiao Feng, that girl may not really be Man Yue's mother. There is no evidence to prove all this. Even if it can be proved that Man Yue is really related to that man, it cannot prove the relationship between that girl and Man Yue."
Jiang Feng sneered: "This is indeed a good reason to get away with it."
As long as they cannot prove Man Yue’s relationship with that girl, they cannot prove that Jiang Feng has anything to do with her, unless they have video and other direct evidence.
Qi Yu sighed. "I heard they used the diary that girl left behind as evidence. The writing on it is very vague, and there may be something else that they haven't taken out. But no matter what it is, Mom will not let you bear this crime."
To put it more darkly, this is not Britain. Even if the other party is the Jiang family, even if Jiang Feng really did it, the Jiang and Qi families can symbolically detain him for a few days and then release him. This is the unfairness of the world at certain times, but... there may be some price to pay.
Jiang Feng drooped his eyes: "I'm not that beastly. Let me think about it alone."
Jiang Feng sat in silence all day, and at night big blisters started to appear on his mouth.
Man Yue started eating and drinking as usual, and even ate a big bowl of rice more than usual, which stunned Qi Yu.
While eating, she instructed the system to keep an eye on Jiang Feng and record everything he did when he met Du Kang again.
System: "I don't have enough energy now."
Man Yue put down her chopsticks and said, "Wait."
She jumped off the bench and went to Jiang Feng's room. Qi Yu stretched out his hand and opened his mouth, but no words came out to stop her.
Man Yue entered Jiang Feng's room, and her small figure immediately attracted his attention.
Jiang Feng moved his foamy mouth, stared at the child as he walked around his room, then picked up a knife in Jiang Feng's small living room and walked towards him.
Jiang Feng raised his eyebrows and asked in a hoarse voice, "What?"
Man Yue asked, "Do you have hemorrhoids?"
Jiang Feng's face darkened a little, and he said in confusion: "No, what are you going to do?"
Man Yue said confidently: "I want blood."
Jiang Feng: "What?"
Man Yue emphasized again: "I want your blood."
Jiang Feng took the knife and looked at the sharp blade: "What do you want my blood for?"
Man Yue smiled meaningfully and said mischievously, "Help my mother vent her anger."
There was a loud bang in the sky, and a bolt of thunder fell, hitting Jiang Feng's heart.
The system covered its eyes in shock: "Ahhh! Host, what are you doing? Don't you want the hero to live? You are forcing him to death!"
Hearing this, Jiang Feng instantly became depressed and looked at her: "You..."
The cotton-padded jacket was unraveling, and Jiang Feng felt very disappointed.
In this case, he pointed the knife at his arm. Just as he was about to cut it, Man Yue climbed onto the chair next to him and pinned him down: "Let me do it!"
Jiang Feng loosened his grip and handed the knife to her.
Man Yue took it, gently stroked his index finger, used the cup to catch the bottom, then put down the knife, took out a Band-Aid from her small pocket and put it on him.
Then he climbed down silently again, paused before leaving and said to him: "I don't want revenge for her. I don't remember my mother, and I don't want her. You are a good father, and I just want to follow you."
