After hearing Jing Li's words, Jing Yanting was still stiff and dull. Even when Jing Li raised the medicines in front of him, he just stretched out his hand, grabbed the bag of medicines, and put them back behind him.

"Dad!" Jing Li was a little anxious, "Show me! Let me see what medicine you are taking!"

"Whether you see it or not, I have to take these medicines." Jing Yanting said in a low voice.

Hearing his words, Jing Li's heart suddenly sank. Her tears were about to burst out uncontrollably, but she still held them back. After taking a deep breath, she stopped worrying about the medicine for the time being and continued.

Getting ready to help Jing Yanting pack things, "Dad, what things do you need to bring? How about I ask the landlady for a bag and pack it for you..."

"No need to pretend for me." Jing Yanting said again, "I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere."

"dad!"

Jing Li turned back to look at him again, but heard Jing Yanting repeat the same words as before: "I told you, you shouldn't come."

When he said this, his expression remained indifferent.

In fact, from the moment he saw Jing Li, even though he had cried uncontrollably, other than that, he never showed any emotion or emotion.

It's like he really doesn't want to see her.

Jing Li originally had many questions to ask, but she didn't ask any of them.

Facing the cold Jing Yanting, she remained silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Since dad doesn't want to leave, let me move in with him. I just saw that the door of the room next door seemed to be open. I'll go

Ask the landlady if she has rented it out. If not, then I will live in that room so that I can take care of my dad more easily."

With that said, she turned and walked towards the door.

Jing Yanting seemed unmoved at all.

However, not long after, Jing Li's voice calling the boss lady came from downstairs.

Jing Yanting sat stiffly beside his bed. Through the half-open door, he heard Jing Li's soft and vague voice coming from downstairs. The landlady was not as quiet as Jing Li, and she kept talking loudly:

"What, you said you want to live here? You, live here?"

Her shocked voice highlighted the gap between Jing Li and this place, as well as the gap between Jing Li and his so-called "father".

Jing Yanting couldn't sit down anymore. He stood up suddenly and rushed downstairs. He grabbed Jing Li's hand that was about to pay, looked at her and said, "You don't have to live here. I didn't expect you to find me. Since you've already

If you find me, there's nothing you can do about it. I'll go back to the construction site and live in the shed again, so don't waste your money here."

Jing Li's eyes froze slightly after hearing this. After a pause, she still smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Dad, you can go back to the construction site to live there. I can build a shed next to the construction site. If that doesn't work, rent one."

An RV is also fine. It has water, electricity, food and drink, and you can also accompany and take care of dad!"

"Jing Li!" Jing Yanting threw her hand away, "Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Jing Li looked at him calmly for a moment, and finally spoke again: "Since I was a child, I have understood some of what my father said, and some I have not. But I remember everything my father did clearly.

Just like this time, although I didn't understand some of what my father said, I remember, I remember the two phone calls my father made to me... I know that my father must miss me very much and really want to hear my voice.

, that’s why you called me, right? So, I will definitely stay with dad, and from now on, I will stay with dad well."

In the middle of her words, Jing Yanting's eyes turned red again. When she finished speaking, Jing Yanting took two steps back uncontrollably, fell weakly onto the bench against the wall, and hugged her tightly with both hands.

On the forehead, he still murmured and repeated: "You shouldn't... you shouldn't..."

Jing Li slowly squatted down in front of him, raised her eyes to look at him, and whispered: "My father and I have been separated for seven years. For me, there is nothing more important than being reunited with my father. Separating from my father

I can’t live another day anymore, so from now on, I will always be by my father’s side, always——”

However, before she finished speaking, Jing Yanting suddenly opened her door and turned around again and rushed upstairs.

"Dad!" Jing Li shouted and quickly chased him upstairs.

Jing Yanting had already closed the door and refused to open it no matter how hard Jing Li knocked.

"Let's go." Through the door, his voice seemed to be getting colder and harder, "I am no longer your father. I can't take care of you, and I can't give you anything. Don't come to me again."

"Dad, I've grown up, I don't need you to take care of me, I can take care of you." Jing Li knocked on the door gently, "We can live happily as before -"

"Jing Li!" Jing Yanting shouted her name sternly, "I don't need your care either. You go back and live your own life."

"If I want to live a good life, I can't live without dad." Jing Li said, "Dad, please open the door, okay?"

"Are you going to force me to die?"

Jing Li suddenly froze.

"Do you know who you are with now? Do you know what kind of family they are? If you don't stay away from me, you are forcing me to die to fulfill your wish-"

Jing Li's hand that knocked on the door hung in mid-air, unable to fall down again.

At this moment, her hand was suddenly held by someone behind her.

Huo Qiran stood beside her, held her in his arms, looked at the closed door in front of her, and said in a cold voice: "Then you know that by saying these things to your daughter now, you are forcing her to do something

What decision? Force her to pretend that she doesn't know her biological father, force her to forget all her past kindnesses, force her to go against her conscience, force her to do the thing she least wants to do! You have raised her for seventeen years,

It’s impossible that you don’t know what kind of character she is, and it’s impossible that you don’t know that making this kind of decision will make her suffer for the rest of her life! You seem to be doing it for her own good, and you seem to be pushing away because you don’t want to drag her down.

She, but what about the fact? In fact, you are the source of her pain all her life, and her future unhappiness will only be because of you——"

Jing Li leaned helplessly in Huo Qiran's arms. She heard every word he said, but she didn't know what he said.

She has worked very hard, she has worked very hard to support her, but when she is rejected and called "You are forcing me to die", she will eventually be powerless and heartbroken.

How could dad say these words to her? How could dad not love her? How could dad not want to recognize her?

She didn't believe everything.

And after Huo Qiran finished speaking, there was always silence behind the door.

Just when Jing Li could hardly hold back her tears and was about to shed tears again, the door suddenly opened tremblingly from the inside.

Jing Yanting's face appeared behind the door. It was clearly a dark face, but it showed an endless paleness for no reason.

He looked at Jing Li, moved his lips, and uttered two words with some difficulty:

"Xiao Li..."

Jing Li suddenly broke away from Huo Qiran's arms and threw herself into the arms in front of her that she had not seen for many years, crying to her heart's content——
