"Yes, I'm satisfied." She nodded in satisfaction and pulled her father to her mother's side. She innocently looked up and said, "Daddy, play games with me. Pretend you're sick and lie on the ground, okay?"
"Alright, dad is lying on the ground." Ye Ming laid on the ground for a long time. No matter how Ye Zi Xuan played with his, he just did not wake up.
Only then did Ye Ming stand up and hold his daughter in his hands. He was simply too sleepy, and this naive brat, Xuan, thought that her father had died.
She very seriously grabbed her father's fingers and said word by word, "Father, you must live for a hundred years, okay?"
"Alright, dad will live for a hundred years. I'll pamper you until you become an old lady, okay?"
She grew up in this kind of pampered environment and was raised as if she was a princess. Even though her mother died when she was very young, she still cared for her a lot.
Ye Ming was both a mother and a father, and occasionally even abandoned the matters of the company to accompany her.
No matter if it was her childhood or when she was growing up, those times were happy. They were all satisfied and never lacked for anything.
She thought she still had her father after her mother passed away, but this time …
She had nothing.
Father, how can you bear to abandon Xuan Xuan and leave by yourself?
Where are you going? Can you bring me?
Her eyes filled with tears as she knelt there on her knees, watching her father's face slowly covered with a white cloth by the nurse, gradually disappearing before her eyes, the spiritual pillar collapsing once again.
"No, my father is still alive, you can't do that!"
Suddenly, as if she had gone mad, she stood up and pulled the nurse away from the floor, forcefully removing the white cloth from her father's face. At the same time, a flash of lightning suddenly came from outside the window, lighting up the room.
Ye Ming's face became even paler under the illumination of the light, and the temperature of his palm also gradually started to dissipate. Her slender hand extended forward, and tightly grabbed onto her father's hand, and moved closer to his face, as if he wanted to keep the warmth that was about to pass away.
"Father, please wake up and look at Xuan Xuan, ok?" She cried, her face full of anticipation for someone who could no longer open his eyes to look at her. But that was impossible.
The scene was touching. When the surrounding people saw this deep emotion, they all cried.
"Miss Ye, please restrain your grief. People can't come back to life." Attorney Lee grabbed her arm and released the white cloth, the nurse walked forward, and he pulled Ye Zi Xuan away.
She slowly inserted her hands into her ink-like hair and murmured, "From today onwards, I don't have a father anymore. I don't have any relatives in this world, I don't have a father anymore …" "My dad is dead …"
She talked to herself the whole time, squatting on the ground to no avail no matter who tried to persuade her. Attorney Lee had no choice but to help her go home.
The heavy rain would not stop just because of a person's sadness. As Ye Zi Xuan waited for the carriage, he just stood there in the rain, with no one knowing whether it was tears or raindrops.
She was so sad that she wanted to die with him. She felt so stifled that she couldn't even breathe. She squatted on the ground and started to cry.
At this moment, she was just a pure daughter. She no longer had any burden as a celebrity, and no one paid attention to her appearance.
The person holding the umbrella by his side hurriedly walked past without showing the slightest trace of pity.
Perhaps people who had stayed in the hospital for too long were long accustomed to parting from each other.
In the apartment.
Ye Zi Xuan had already forgotten how she came back here. She sat on the ground, drenched, as she stared blankly at the heavy rain outside the window.
Suddenly, her lips slightly parted and her eyes dimmed as she said, "It was a rainy day when mother left. At that time, my father and I were extremely sad. I thought mother didn't want me anymore, but now even father doesn't want me anymore."
As she spoke, her tears flowed again as she cried silently. Time passed bit by bit, until the sound of thunder and rain gradually died down. Only then did she slowly get up and enter the kitchen.
She believed that this matter wasn't that simple …
Ye Zi Xuan endured her pain and poured a cup of water in front of Attorney Lee. She took a deep breath: "Tell me, what happened? When did Li Ai Lin go to find my father? What did she say to my father? "
She could not ignore this fact. Thinking back to the last time she saw Li Ai Lin at the coffee shop, she looked like she was biting the bullet. She could almost imagine the scene when her father saw her.
Closing his eyes, tears streamed down his face once more.
"Miss Ye, don't be too sad." Attorney Lee passed a tissue to her before slowly saying, "When I saw your father, he was already at the hospital. As for what Madam Huo Family and Mr. Ye were talking about, I'm not too sure either."
Initially, he was still discussing with Huo Jing Yan about how much he should pay to redeem Ye Ming back. However, before the matter was settled, he received the news.
"You don't know?" She narrowed her eyes and suddenly opened them wide as she stared at the lawyer. "You are my father's lawyer, is he someone anyone can meet? Didn't you say that no one is allowed to meet with you unless they have regular family visits? "
There were cell rules, especially for prisoners on death row. They were not allowed to see anyone except for a lawyer accompanying them.
"But the Huo Family has the ability of the Huo Family, they are the economic representative of the Qingtan City, there is nothing that they can't do."
When the Attorney Lee got to the point, there was nothing that the Huo Family couldn't do.
But back then, Huo Jing Yan had used evidence to firmly deny her request for help …
She shook her head with a chuckle and waved her hand, signalling for him not to say anything more. "Don't ever mention anything with the surname 'Huo' in front of me again!"
She would never forget her father's words that she should never be together with Huo Jing Yan.
Why?
She couldn't figure it out.
"But Miss Ye, if you really want to look back on this matter, perhaps you can get Huo Family to give you some compensation. That way, you can also …"
Before Attorney Lee could finish his words, he was rejected by Ye Zi Xuan with a wave of his hand, "No need! "My father is dead. Can you make them pay me back for a father?"
As she spoke, she started crying again. She clenched both her hands tightly. She could not feel anything even if her fingertips dug into her palms. She did not need any compensation! He just wanted his father to live a good life.
In fact, it was impossible.
The Attorney Lee had nothing to say. After giving Ye Zi Xuan enough time to make a joke out of himself, he said, "Because this matter happened temporarily, your father did not leave behind a will. As for the Huo Family, if you do not pursue this matter, our cooperative relationship will end here."
He then stood up and took a deep breath, "If you have nothing else to say, I will leave first. My condolences!"
