Xia Chuanxu could see the abnormal atmosphere between the two of them. After chatting for a while, he found an excuse to let the maid carry the child and follow him to the side.

The remaining father and daughter pair, Xia Jinqi and Xia Jitian, stared at each other, looking even weirder.

Taking a deep breath, it was Xia Jitian who spoke first.

“Xiao Qi, have you been to the JI family? ”

In the end, the conflict between the father and daughter had to start with the JI family.

Even though this was also the beginning of Xia Jitian’s sin.

Xia Jinqi didn’t look at him, nor did she answer. She only looked down and played with a flower.

In her heart, he didn’t even have the right to mention her mother!

But even if she didn’t answer, Xia Jitian still knew everything that he needed to know.

He sat at the side. His usually straight back collapsed at this moment, looking very dejected. “Xiao Fu, she… ”

“Don’t call my mother by her name! ” Xia Jinqi finally couldn’t help but frown and cut him off.

Xia JITIAN’s body stiffened. He clenched his teeth tightly, and his eyes were a little warm.

“I just want to know if she’s… still alive… ”

Xia Jinqi didn’t see his expression at this moment. Just hearing his voice made her feel disgusted. “She’s dead! Are you happy now? She’s no longer blocking your career and holding you back! ”

“…”Xia Jitian originally still held the last glimmer of hope in his heart, thinking that Ji Xiaofu could survive.

Now that he heard Xia Jinqi say it herself, the amount of hope in his heart was now filled with disappointment.

He had originally thought that the heavens would give him a chance to make up for it… …

“Then she… ” Xia Jitian opened his mouth again. He wanted to know more about Ji Xiaofu, but the familiar information angered Xia Jinqi, who was already emotionally unstable.

She had personally seen the diary her mother left behind, and she had also personally seen her mother lying alone at the foot of the Snowy Mountain. How could she not be angry? How could she not be resentful?

“Shut up! ” Xia Jinqi didn’t even want to hear him say another word related to her mother! “What right do you have to mention her? Back then, she came to Rao city alone. If it wasn’t for you… if it wasn’t for you… ”

Xia Jinqi felt that she couldn’t even say the rest of the words!

Fan Jian… … How could he do that ? !

Xia Jinqi held her breath in her chest. She gritted her teeth again and tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart.

“Xiao Qi, I don’t expect your forgiveness. I just want to know, did Xiao Fu return to the JI family after that? ”

Xia Jitian’s voice choked with sobs.

Now that he knew she was dead, he didn’t have much hope. The only thing he wanted to know was, when Xiao Fu left, was she in pain?

Was she buried in her hometown now?

He had once heard her say that it was a picturesque place with snow-capped mountains in the distance and snowflakes blooming everywhere nearby.

Xia Jinqi really wasn’t willing to tell him a single word. Just as she was about to scold him back, she raised her head and saw Xia Jitian’s tear-stained face.

In her memories, her father was always that cold, expressionless, and unwilling to speak.

He was a man of his word. He was inflexible and stubborn, and it was difficult for him to get close to him… …

But this kind of person actually cried?

He cried like an abandoned child, helpless, sad, and desolate.

Xia Jinqi’s heart was suddenly gripped.

He… … was he crying for her mother ? ?

After so many years, so his heart would know pain too?
