Chapter 91: Light In The Cracks 24

The College Entrance Examination ended, and Liuli saw Bai Zhiheng waiting for her as she walked out of the examination hall. Happily, she threw herself into his arms: “Everything went smoothly. ”

Bai Zhiheng smiled and replied: “Everything went smoothly. ”

Bai Xiyan, who hadn’t appeared in their lives for a long time, looked at the two with a sinister expression: “Bai Zhiheng, Father has returned. Have you go back with me tonight. ”

Liuli quickly glanced at the Book of Fate, confirming there was no problem, before she didn’t make a fuss about going together.

Bai Zhiheng felt more gratitude than resentment towards Father Bai, after all, when they adopted him, they made it very clear to him. Later, when they had their biological son, they didn’t abandon him. From the perspective of adoption, it was already quite good.

Liuli obediently returned to her school dormitory to collect her things, while Bai Zhiheng got into the car with Bai Xiyan and went back to the Bai Family.

Mother Bai and his younger brother were not there; only Father Bai should have returned.

Father Bai wasn’t in a hurry to talk to Bai Zhiheng. Instead, he invited the two children to sit down and eat. The seriousness in his eyes revealed Father Bai’s decisiveness in his work. His gentle attitude towards Bai Zhiheng and Mother Bai was like the only warmth he could pursue in this family. Regardless of how much sincerity was involved, at least they were his only light at the time.

After dinner, Father Bai took Bai Zhiheng into the study. Bai Xiyan stared fiercely at the closed study door for a long time before returning to her own room.

“Zhiheng, I heard from the butler that you haven’t been back for a long time and have thoughts of leaving the Bai Family, is that true? ”

“Yes, Uncle Bai, I can…”

Father Bai raised his hand and pressed down towards Bai Zhiheng: “Firstly, congratulations on finishing the College Entrance Examination today. You’ll be able to embark on a new life trajectory soon, and you should indeed say goodbye to the past.

I know what my daughter did, and as her father, I knew about it and indulged her. Since you’ve decided to leave the Bai Family, you won’t have any more contact with her in the future. Let the past be the past. I know it’s a bit excessive to ask you to turn the page on what happened before, but as long as you agree, the Bai Family will write off the money spent on raising you, and I can give you another sum as compensation. ”

Not to mention that he didn’t have any evidence; even if he did, sending the daughter of the people who raised him for so many years to prison would be truly ungrateful. As for making Bai Xiyan apologize to him, that’s even less necessary. Seeing her today, she still looked like she wanted to tear him apart. A reluctant apology is better left unsaid; taking the money is more practical.

“I’ve always been grateful for Uncle’s care and for bringing me out of the orphanage. I will turn the page on what I’ve experienced these years. ”

“This is 500,000, as compensation. This is a document confirming the severing of ties. Sign your name, and the Bai Family and you will be quits. ”

After signing his name, Bai Zhiheng returned to his school dormitory. After all, there was nothing in the Bai Family worth his lingering.

The next day, Bai Zhiheng and Liuli, carrying their meager luggage, returned to the small house Liuli had rented before. It had been a semester since they’d been back, and it was dusty.

Bai Zhiheng didn’t let Lin Yao do anything. He quickly cleaned the cozy little house. Now, both he and Lin Yao had plenty of money, so they planned to travel before school started. Besides setting aside some money for travel and tuition and living expenses for the new school year, the rest would be put into bank wealth management products; compound interest could bring in some income.

In Bai Zhiheng’s understanding, Lin Yao was not doing well, so he hoped that when she was with him, she wouldn’t have to worry about money. Spend what she needs to, and as long as Lin Yao is happy, he’ll earn more if they run out.

Father Bai specially returned to the country after the College Entrance Examination to have a meal with his child. Lin Yao’s father, Lin Guoqiang, also finally took time out of his busy schedule to return to the country to celebrate with his child. But when he returned home, he only saw his wife and younger son: “Wife, where’s Yao Yao? Isn’t today the end of the College Entrance Examination? Why isn’t Yao Yao home? ”

Lin Guoqiang looked at Lin Yao’s room and felt that something seemed to be missing, but as the child’s father, he couldn’t go in and look around. He could only return to the dining hall to ask his wife.

Su Laidi felt somewhat guilty. Before she could answer, Lin Chen beat her to it: “Mom said, Sister isn’t coming back. ”

Lin Chen was very happy about this. From now on, everything in the Lin family would be his, and no one would be competing with him.

Lin Guoqiang didn’t understand. He understood his mother’s preference for sons over daughters; many older generations have some bad habits. He also had another child, a boy, so everyone was happy.

What he didn’t understand most was why his wife had the same attitude towards his daughter as his mother. Aren’t sons and daughters both the crystallization of their love!?

Lin Guoqiang didn’t want to quarrel with his wife in front of his child: “Lin Chen, go back to your room. ”

“Dad, you didn’t bring me a gift when you came back. Why do you care about Sister now that she’s gone? ”

Su Laidi quickly pulled Lin Chen back. Lin Chen saw the anger in his father’s eyes. Father Lin hadn’t been home for a long time; Lin Chen had almost forgotten his father’s authority as the head of the family. Furthermore, his father had always been more partial to his sister.

Lin Chen really wanted to throw down his chopsticks to express his dissatisfaction, but remembering his father’s strictness, Lin Chen backed down and returned to his room.

“What did Lin Chen mean when he said Yao Yao isn’t coming back? ”

Lin Guoqiang and Su Laidi had a heated argument, but Su Laidi still insisted that she was not wrong.

“Lin Guoqiang, when I married you, you said you would consider my feelings. You said you would understand my past. Now you’re blaming me here! ”

“I understand the suffering you endured in your original family. All these years, I’ve been working hard to let you live a life of comfort and happiness. I want you to live well and happily. I just hope you can be a little nicer to our daughter. Why don’t you understand? ”

Su Laidi couldn’t argue with Lin Guoqiang, so she went back to her room and slammed the door shut.

When her daughter was just born, the disappointment in her mother-in-law’s eyes was like a thorn in her heart. Even after forming a new family, she still couldn’t escape the pain her original family had caused her.

Her mother-in-law’s attitude towards her daughter did make her feel a moment of pity, but why did Lin Guoqiang think his daughter was also good? She herself had never received such love, so she couldn’t bear to see her daughter receive such love!

Lin Guoqiang called Lin Yao. The moment the call connected, he breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he didn’t know how to start the conversation.

He knew that what Su Laidi told him must have been beneficial to her, but he also knew that to drive away a child who was still in school, she must have experienced a lot of hardships that he didn’t know about.

“Dad, is anything wrong? ”

“Daughter, Dad came back to see you. Where are you staying now? Dad will come find you. ”

“Dad, I’m in G City. It’s too late now. Come over tomorrow, okay? I’ll send you the address. ”

Lin Guoqiang wanted to ask Lin Yao what had happened, but he thought it wasn’t easy to communicate over the phone. He could see her tomorrow, so he wasn’t in a hurry.
