Everyone who knew Xiao Guoshan thought that he lavished a lot of attention on Xiao Yunyun.
He pampered Xiao Yunyun excessively.
From the first day he adopted Xiao Yunyun, Xiao Guoshan could not wait to hold her in his arms and let her live like a princess.
Not only during Xiao Yunyun’s childhood but also now when Xiao Yunyun had grown up, apart from his work, Xiao Guoshan always talked about his daughter.
All his friends agreed that Xiao Yunyun was everything in his life.
Some people secretly speculated that Xiao Guoshan doted on Xiao Yunyun so much that Xiao Yunyun would turn out to be a spoiled brat.
But only Xiao Guoshan knew that no matter how much he doted on her, Yunyun would not be spoiled.
Because Xiao Yunyun had all the good qualities that were inherent in Su Yunjin.
Since she was a child, no matter what difficulties or challenges she encountered, Xiao Yunyun would not cry or complain to her parents. She would mentally adjust her attitude and face everything with optimism and positivity.
Even if she failed in the end, she would digest everything silently and continue to look for solutions.
Just like what had happened between her and Shen Yuechuan.
Falling in love with Shen Yuechuan had created a huge problem for Xiao Yunyun.
After her romantic relationship with Shen Yuechuan was made public, she and Shen Yuechuan had many doubts.
Now, she and Shen Yuechuan could finally get together openly, but Shen Yuechuan was sick due to the disease…
Xiao Yunyun stayed in touch with Xiao Guoshan, but she never showed any weakness. She was always smiling in their video calls.
At the end of their video calls, Xiao Guoshan could not help asking, “Yunyun, are you okay?”
Xiao Yunyun knew that Xiao Guoshan was just worried about her.
She would always smile at Xiao Guoshan and told him loudly, “Dad, I’m fine now. I will always be fine. You don’t have to worry about me!”
Xiao Guoshan nodded with relief, ended the video calls, and burst into tears.
He thought about it for a long time, but had never been able to understand why his daughter, who was so nice, had such a dismal fate.
The only fortunate thing for Xiao Guoshan was that Xiao Yunyun had always been optimistic enough to undergo any test of fate.
If it weren’t for that, Xiao Guoshan could not imagine how Xiao Yunyun could bear such a heavy burden on her thin shoulders.
However, it would be over soon.
After today, Xiao Yunyun would experience the two most important events in her life.
The first one would be her wedding with Shen Yuechuan, which meant that Xiao Guoshan was going to give his only daughter to a strange man.
The second one would be Shen Yuechuan’s operation, which would determine whether his daughter could be happy for the rest of her life after being given to that man.
After Xiao Yunyun went to live in City A, Xiao Guoshan missed too many important moments in her life.
Now, he was here.
Then, no matter what would happen next, he would face it together with Xiao Yunyun.
In Xiao Yunyun’s memory, Xiao Guoshan had always been very willing to accompany her.
In order to attend her kindergarten graduation ceremony, he even turned down a deal that could generate a lot of profit for the company, so that he could take a photo with her at the graduation ceremony and show it to his friends.
Probably for this reason, Xiao Yunyun had always felt that no matter what happened, as long as her father was with her, she would have the strength to face any challenges.
When it came to challenges, the biggest challenge for Xiao Yunyun would be Shen Yuechuan’s operation after the Spring Festival.
Whether she could be happy or not in the future depended on the outcome of the operation.
She needed Xiao Guoshan to accompany her throughout Shen Yuechuan’s operation.
Xiao Guoshan also knew that she needed him, so he said, “Daddy is here to accompany you.”
Hearing this, Xiao Yunyun suddenly burst into tears for no reason.
“Don’t cry. You’re a grown girl. You’ll get laughed at for crying at the airport.”
Xiao Guoshan’s eyes turned red as he comforted Xiao Yunyun.
On the one hand, it was because he finally saw his daughter again after a year.
On the other hand, it was because he had never imagined that his girl, the apple of his eye, would experience so much hardship after leaving his protection, and that she had actually gone through them.
Xiao Yunyun nodded and choked with sobs, but she could not stop crying. Her tears soon soaked through Xiao Guoshan’s clothes.
Xiao Guoshan did not care about his clothes. He stroked Xiao Yunyun’s back and continued comforting her.
Xiao Yunyun was not a timid girl. After she cried for a while, the self-healing power in her body ignited. She wiped her eyes, stopped crying, and looked at Xiao Guoshan with grievance.
Shen Yuechuan was sick, so she could not shed tears in front of him, let alone act like a spoiled child or cause trouble for him.
However, she could always get infinite care and love from her father.
Xiao Guoshan knew that his daughter was not feeling wronged. It was because she had not seen him for a long time.
He reached out to wipe Xiao Yunyun’s face like he did when she was a child. He deliberately changed the topic. “By the way, why didn’t you come with Yuechuan?”
Xiao Yunyun tried her best to speak calmly, as if she really did not care about Shen Yuechuan, “He will only disturb our reunion! I sent him to the restaurant.”
Xiao Guoshan laughed and shook his head. “Yunyun, only Yuechuan will believe you. Dad knows that you must not want Yuechuan to see you cry, so you don’t want him to come with you.”
“Hey, Dad…” Xiao Yunyun blinked and her sharp and mischievous look was back. “We all know the truth, so you don’t have to point it out.”
Xiao Guoshan shook his head helplessly and said nothing more.
In fact, he was happy that even though Xiao Yunyun had experienced a lot, she had not changed.
Xiao Yunyun took Xiao Guoshan’s hand and said, “The car is outside. Let’s go put the luggage in the hotel first and then have dinner! Dad, you haven’t returned to this country for many years. I’ll take you to eat local delights!”
The hotel where Xiao Guoshan would be staying was Century Gardens Hotel, which was owned by Lu Enterprises.
Shen Yuechuan had given an order to the hotel manager, and the hotel staff also recognized Xiao Yunyun. Knowing that her father was going to stay in the hotel for a while, they were all on standby to receive him.
As soon as the car stopped in front of the hotel, someone immediately came up to open the door and said in a very welcoming tone, “Mr. Xiao, Miss Xiao, welcome.”
Xiao Yunyun pulled Xiao Guoshan out of the car and said, “Thank you. Dad, I’ll show you to the room. You’ll definitely be satisfied! By the way, do you know that this is my cousin-in-law’s hotel?”
Xiao Guoshan and Su Yunjin were not a real couple, and he had no intention of building ties with Lu Boyan.
However, because his company had also invested in country D’s hotel industry, Xiao Guoshan knew about the Century Gardens Hotel in City A.
He had heard that this was a star hotel planned by Lu Boyan, which was famous for its design, services and restaurants. It was far ahead of the other high-end hotels in City A and was the first choice of accommodation for businessmen and stars.
Shen Yuechuan arranged a business suite on the 11th floor for Xiao Guoshan.
The suite was designed to be elegant and magnificent. All the furniture was customized by top brands. One had a superb view outside the window. The whole suite was simply perfect.
Xiao Yunyun could not wait to ask, “Dad, what do you think of this suite?”
Xiao Guoshan said with a smile, “Very good. How can I not be satisfied with your cousin-in-law’s hotel? Besides, the hotel is really good!”
“Uh-huh!” Xiao Yunyun was happier than receiving praise for herself. She smiled and tilted her head. “My cousin-in-law is very powerful. You’ll see him soon!”
Xiao Guoshan nodded. At this time, the porter brought his luggage in.
Xiao Guoshan finished his unpacking and turned around to find Xiao Yunyun looking at her watch. She frowned slightly and seemed to be in a hurry.
He smiled and could not help teasing his daughter. “Yunyun, are you that eager to see Yuechuan?”
Xiao Yunyun did not know whether to admit it or deny it.
She was more worried about Shen Yuechuan than eager to see him.
Shen Yuechuan was indeed getting better, but his condition was not stable, and there was a possibility of accidents occurring at any time.
Unless she stayed with Shen Yuechuan, Xiao Yunyun could not rest assured even if she was just away from him for five minutes.
Xiao Guoshan looked at Xiao Yunyun, who was in a dilemma. He could not bear to see her like this, but when he thought that it was because of a man, he had mixed feelings.
His daughter, who he had brought up would belong to someone else tomorrow.
More importantly, he still had no idea what the man looked like.
The more Xiao Guoshan thought about it, the more helpless he felt.
However, his care for her prevailed in the end.
Xiao Guoshan put on his coat and said, “I’m going to test my future son-in-law. Let’s go.”
“Test?” Xiao Yunyun immediately looked serious and hurriedly stopped Xiao Guoshan. “Dad, what are you going to do to Yuechuan?”
“My daughter, who I have brought up, will marry him tomorrow. As his father-in-law, of course, I have to test whether he is qualified to marry my daughter!” Xiao Guoshan took the test for granted. “It’s useless to even try and stop me.”
“Dad, I’m not trying to stop you.” Xiao Yunyun bit her lip and looked at Xiao Guoshan pitifully. “But can I discuss something with you?”
Xiao Guoshan motioned for Xiao Yunyun to continue. “Tell me about it first.”
Xiao Yunyun thought about what she wanted to say and said righteously, “Yuechuan is now a patient. It’s not fair to test him! Of course, you can test him, but you have to wait until he recovers!”
“…” Xiao Guoshan did not speak.
Xiao Yunyun could not be sure whether Xiao Guoshan would agree or not. She grabbed his hand and shook it hard and whined like a spoiled child, “Dad, please…”
