After Yu Kangtai found out that Yu Niaoniao had been locked up in the Justice Department on suspicion of murder, he was both angry and worried. He did not sleep well for a few days.

He felt that Madam Xie had not taught Yu Niaoniao well, which was why she had raised her to be so lawless. She actually dared to kill someone in the palace. However, Madam Xie was already dead. No matter how angry he was, he could not find anyone to vent his anger.

He wanted to see Niaoniao, but he couldn’t bring himself to take the initiative to look for her.

Later, Yu Sheng and Yu Pingping went to the Justice Department to visit Yu Niaoniao. When they returned, they told Yu Kangtai that Yu Niaoniao was doing very well in the Justice Department.

Only then did he relax.

It was not easy for Yu Niaoniao to be cleared of her crimes. Yu Kangtai finally felt relieved.

Coincidentally, it was almost the Qingming Festival. He specially asked Yu Sheng to inform Yu Niaoniao to go home and worship her ancestors. At that time, he could have a good chat with Yu Niaoniao.

He had planned it well, but Yu Niaoniao did not appreciate it.

On the day of the Qingming Festival, everyone from the Yu family’s side family was present, except for Yu Niaoniao.

Yu Kangtai did not say anything on the surface. He held the ancestral worship ceremony methodically, but he was furious.

As an elder, he had already taken the initiative to make a peace offering. As long as Yu Niaoniao reciprocated, the father and daughter would successfully reconcile.

But she rebuffed his overture. She could not understand his painstaking efforts as a father at all.

Yu Kangtai trembled with anger and pointed at Yu Niaoniao.

“You unfilial daughter!”

Yu Niaoniao put on a fearless posture and nodded. “You’re right.”

Yu Kangtai was incredulous. “Aren’t you ashamed?”

Yu Niaoniao said perfunctorily, “Yes, yes. I’m very ashamed.”

Yu Kangtai was even angrier. “What kind of attitude is that? Did you even listen to what I said?”

Yu Niaoniao dug her ears. “Yes, yes, I’m listening.”

Yu Kangtai speechless

Before he came, he was prepared to have a big fight with Yu Niaoniao, but she did not put up a fight. No matter what he said, she nodded in agreement.

It was like an impervious piece of meat.

That was even more infuriating!

Yu Kangtai was so angry that his chest heaved and his face turned red. He glared at Yu Niaoniao, wanting to say something, but he did not know what else to say.

Yu Niaoniao said, “Is there anything else? If not, please leave. I still have things to do.”

She had to finish drawing the Record of the Phoenix Cry Nation, lest the poor shopkeeper got killed by Wei Liao.

Yu Kangtai gritted his teeth and questioned, “Do you still have me in your eyes?”

Yu Niaoniao looked at him calmly and asked a question.

“Do you really want to know the answer?”

Her reaction made Yu Kangtai feel uneasy.

But he refused to retreat, his attitude still unyielding.

“Of course!”

Yu Niaoniao said, “You’re my biological father. This can’t be denied, but in my heart, my father can only be Feng Liang Han.”

Yu Kangtai felt as if he had been hit in the head. He was stunned on the spot.

He never expected Yu Niaoniao to say such a thing.

After a while, he came back to his senses and asked with a trembling voice.

“What did you say? Try saying it again.”

Yu Niaoniao took a deep breath and spoke slowly as if she was telling a story.

“When I was sick when I was young, my mother and stepfather stayed by my bed and took care of me all night.

“When children called me a wild child without a father and ganged up to bully me, my stepfather would take me to the parents of those children to demand an explanation.”

“He told me not to be afraid. He would be my father from now on.” “Every time my stepfather went away, he did not forget to bring me gifts.”

“Every time I had a birthday, my stepfather would carefully prepare a gift for me.”

“Every New Year’s Eve, my stepfather would quietly slip New Year’s money under my pillow.” “Every time I was sad, my stepfather would try his best to make me happy.”

“Every time I…”

Yu Kangtai’s expression darkened.

He couldn’t stand it anymore. He raised his voice to interrupt her. “Enough!”

Yu Niaoniao stopped her narrative.

Yu Kangtai said disdainfully.

“He’s not your biological father. He can’t really love you. The only reason he was so good to you was to coax you and your mother.”

“If your mother had given birth to his child and he had his own, he would never have continued treating you so well .”

Yu Niaoniao asked, “How do you know my mother didn’t have children for him?”

Yu Kangtai was stunned for a moment before asking hesitantly, “Your mother had a child with him?”

Yu Niaoniao saw through his thoughts. Even though he had already divorced Madam Xie, and the two of them already had their own families, he still felt inexplicably possessive of Madam Xie.

After knowing that she had given birth to another man’s child, Yu Kangtai felt as if his everything had been completely snatched away by someone else.

Yu Niaoniao nodded without hesitation. “That’s right.”

Yu Kangtai felt angry for no reason.

He endured it again and again, but in the end, he could not help but mock her.

“No wonder Madam Xie taught you to be like this. It’s because she had a child with another man.”

“Indeed, with a stepfather, there will be a stepmother. To think you still foolishly acknowledged a thief as your father.”

Yu Niaoniao said unhurriedly.

“You said that my stepfather was deliberately lying to me, then you said that my mother didn’t teach me well, and then you said that I recognized a thief as my father.”

“So everyone else is in the wrong but you?’ Is it only by stepping others into the dust that you can show your nobility?”

Her words accurately pierced Yu Kangtai’s thoughts.

He raised his voice in denial. “You’re talking nonsense!”

Yu Niaoniao looked at him with sympathy.

“When you see someone else do something you can’t do, you will do whatever it takes to belittle them.

Someone like you must feel very inferior.”

Yu Kangtai roared in embarrassment.

“Shut up! I’m your biological father. How can you say that about your biological father?!”

Yu Niaoniao said, “I’m really sad. Why do I have a biological father like you?” Her words triggered Yu Kangtai’s anger.

He was so angry that he lost all his rationality. He raised his hand to slap Yu Niaoniao’s face.

Yu Niaoniao had expected him to attack.

She took a step back and dodged Yu Kangtai’s slap.

Yu Kangtai missed.

He was even angrier. “How dare you dodge?!”

Yu Niaoniao looked at him expressionlessly.

“Mother and Stepfather have never attacked me since I was young.”

Yu Kangtai said angrily, “A filial son is born under a rod. It’s because they didn’t discipline you well that they raised you to be so lawless now!”

Yu Niaoniao said, “They worked hard to raise me to adulthood because they wanted me to be happy, not let me be beaten and scolded by you.”

“You’re happy. Have you thought about anyone else? How much trouble have you caused since you returned to the Imperial Capital?”

“You caused me to be humiliated in front of my colleagues and caused the Yu family to be disgraced in the Imperial Capital.”

“Now that you’re not even willing to go home to pay your respects to your ancestors, what else do you want? Do you have to pierce the sky before you stop?!”
