Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Li Ruochu could no longer control her feelings. She quickly walked to the bed and threw herself onto him, crying, “Dad…”
Li Qingsong raised his skinny hand and placed it on her trembling back. His heart was filled with excitement. Before he died, he could still see his most beloved daughter. He could die in peace.
“Daddy, your daughter is unfilial. She only came back to see you now…”
Li Ruochu raised her head and said with tears streaming down her face.
All these years, she had been holding a grudge against her father for remarrying. She hated him for renewing the strings after her mother died, marrying Song Juan and giving birth to her stepsister Li Min’er.
But after so many years, she could already understand her father’s helplessness at that time. Whenever she thought of how she had left home in a fit of anger, it must have hurt her father a lot. She felt very guilty.
“It’s good that you’re back…”
Li Qingsong’s eyes were also wet.
“Don’t you blame me? I left all those years ago and haven’t come back to see you even once.”
“I don’t blame you. I just want to know if you’re doing well… All these years, I’ve been sending people to look for you, but you were nowhere to be found… I’m sorry… I’ve made you suffer…”
Li Qingsong said these words intermittently and gasped for air.
The person he loved the most was Li Ruochu. He regarded her as the apple of his eye. He had never neglected her just because she had a second daughter. On the contrary, he still favored her the most.
Li Ruochu shook her head to show that she was not wronged.
“Daddy is dying. I’ve been hoping to see you again before I die. At least I finally see you now…”
“Daddy, don’t say any more inauspicious words. You will get better. You will definitely get better.”
Li Ruochu wiped her tears and forced a smile.
Li Qingsong knew that he didn’t have much time left. He said again, “If I pass on soon… I’ll ask your Uncle Hong to help you in the future…”
“Daddy, stop it…”
Li Ruochu burst into tears again as she listened to her father’s words. She had never expected to see her father in such a sad state.
“I hope you can come back and take over the Li family…”
Li Qingsong was so excited to see his daughter that he started to cough violently.
Li Ruochu quickly calmed him down. “Daddy, don’t talk anymore. Have a good rest, okay? We’ll talk when you’re better!”
Li Qingsong nodded weakly and did not speak again. He spent a lot of energy and closed his eyes to rest.
“Mr. Li, you should rest first. I’ll talk to Miss Li about the details,” Hong Jin said in his ear.
Li Qingsong nodded slightly.
“Daddy, I’m going back now. I’ll come back when I have time. You must pull yourself together! I still have to be filial to you!”
Li Ruochu held her father’s hand. After saying this, she placed his hand under the blanket and covered it before leaving the ward.
She left the ward and closed the door. Li Ruochu followed Hong Jin out.
Lawyer Hong Jin said, “Miss Li, you heard it just now. Mr. Li wants you to come back and take over the family business.”
“But Mr. Hong, I…” Li Ruochu couldn’t accept it when she thought of taking over her family’s company.
“I know what you’re worried about, but Mr. Li doesn’t want the company to fall into someone else’s hands. That’s why he wants you to take care of it. I think Miss Li doesn’t want to disappoint Mr. Li either!”
