He was certain then; she was indeed Mu Qingchengâs daughter!
The so-called granddaughter, whom he had doted on for over a decade, was an imposter!
Remorse and fury consumed him at the thought of this!
He had nearly ruined her!
Ruined that beloved womanâs daughter!
His heart was twisted in pain.
âYour name is Yun Shishi, isnât it?!â His voice shook. âGrandpa has been looking everywhere for you all these years; I didnât think that youâd actuallyââ
âShut up!â she yelled in vexation. âDonât you say my name; you have no right to say my name!â
âIââ
Shock and hurt flashed across his face as his lips quivered incessantly. His face then turned ghastly pale at once. âShishi, donât get agitated! Youâre still hurt so speak no more!â
âShut up! Stop calling my name!â A flash of pain appeared on her face as she howled, âYou donât have the right to do so! Mu Sheng, are you feeling very smug now?! Are you satisfied now? Isnât it all because of you that I turned out this way?!â
Like a razor-sharp dagger, her cold and indifferent words indubitably stabbed him!
He had nothing to say in his defense despite the compounding pain in his heart.
Indeed, if not for his foolish mistakes back then, she would not have suffered this much!
It was justifiable that she blamed and hated him!
This was not what he wanted, though!
Never did he expect such an outcome just because of his momentary foolishness!
He immediately moved to placate her. âAll right, all right! Grandpa will not say your name. Weâll talk when youâre feeling better, okay?â
Her face froze as she gritted out, âYouâre no grandfather of mine!â
Her words struck him like bolts of lightning.
She continued. âDo you know? From my mother, there were only ever mentions of you being a cruel miscreant who destroyed her life, so youâre no grandfather to me, and I wonât acknowledge you, too! Give up!â
This was too much of a blow to the elderly man, causing him to stagger a few steps backward. His heart constricted in pain.
His trembling hand held on to his chest as hurt exuded from his eyes.
âShishi... give me a chance to explain, all right? I did you wrong; I really did you wrong. From now on, grandpa will make it all up to you for the wrongs Iâve done to you. Please donât be mad at grandpa and say such cruel words!â
Once a vigorous and vicious big shot, this elderly man had now put down all his pride before her just to plead for her forgiveness!
Ever since he learned the truth, he was tortured by remorse endlessly, but he felt even more unbearable when she poured salt on his wounds with her merciless words.
She sneered. âWhat?! Donât you think itâs too late now to admit your mistakes?! If not for you, my mother wouldnât have left me! My brother wouldnât have left me, too! Itâs youâyou destroyed me and my family! Youâre a murdererâa cruel miscreant! Get lost! I donât wanna see you ever again! Get lost!â
She chased him away.
He stood rooted to the spot, though. He was unwilling to leave, not when he had not taken a good look at her. She was hurt. He heard that she was covered in blood when she was brought over to the hospital.
Knowing this, his heart ached. He wanted to see how badly hurt she was
