Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me-Chapter 1448: The Mastermind Behind the Ye Family’s Doom (Part 4)
Xie Liancheng looked at her fearless face, "You’re not afraid of my revenge at all now, knowing that sooner or later I will find you. Either you, or your corpse."
Xia Meng hid for so many years and only now revealed her whereabouts for him to find, it can only be because her health has deteriorated.
Birth, aging, illness, and death are things no one can escape.
"Infected with HIV?"
Xia Meng shrugged and said indifferently, "You’ve already figured it all out, so I have nothing to say."
Xie Liancheng’s expression turned disdainful.
In a cold voice, he said, "Using your own illness to exploit your own daughter, such a thing, only you could do."
"What do you want to say?" Xia Meng raised an eyebrow at him, "Your own daughter, so what? Oh, I remember. Ye Jing gave you a daughter. Tsk tsk, the heavens have been kind to you." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
"You told Xia Li she’s my daughter. She’s been doing research all along, hoping to use her latest achievements to cure your disease." Xie Liancheng stood up, looking down at her, "The heavens were also kind to you, but you did not accept it. I never thought you were this kind of person; I know you’re ruthless, but until I knew this for sure, I didn’t want to believe you’d treat your own daughter this way."
"I did nothing." Xia Meng said coldly, "I didn’t beg her to save me either. She wanted a father, so I showed her a path. She wanted a mother..."
Her voice stopped.
As if recalling something, a complex expression appeared on her lips that no one could understand.
"You’re wrong if you think you can use her to avenge me." Xie Liancheng continued in a harsh tone.
Xia Li has been deeply engrossed in her project at the research institute, tirelessly researching HIV.
"He’s not my father, is he?"
Xia Li’s hoarse voice came from outside the door as she entered.
On that familiar face, she appeared calm yet couldn’t suppress a slight tremble.
"You lied to me!" Xia Li looked at her, word by word, "You said he was my father, said he was a bastard who abandoned his wife, said he was heartless... When I found out he had another daughter, you told me how much he would hate me..."
Xia Meng’s cigarette butt fell.
She pressed her lips tightly together and looked at her with a blank expression, "So what?"
"How could you do this to me!" Xia Li clenched her fists.
Xia Meng sneered, "I made up a story for you merely because... you needed one. If I told you I have no idea who your father is, how heartbroken you would be, right? But from the beginning, I never asked you to avenge him, nor did I ask you to help me find a cure for my illness... huh."
"But those letters you gave me..."
"That’s right, I meant for you to have them." Xia Meng looked away and said coldly, "I said bury those things. You insisted on giving them to him. Whatever you thought, don’t pin it on me."
"No!" Xia Li affirmed as she looked at her, clenching her teeth, "No, it’s because you knew I would do this, right? You saw through that I wouldn’t want you to live out your late years like this, knew I would find him and approach him. You didn’t forbid me from finding him, just told me not to let him know you’re still alive or he’d kill you... I almost really believed it."
