The Male Lead Suddenly Became My Lapdog after I Annulled Our Engagement-Chapter 289 - Uncovering The Scars
289 Uncovering The Scars
When He Zhen’s men arrived at the Jing Corporation, Jing Yan had just taken He Miao to the building next door to inspect the site.
Xu Ling, who stayed behind, received a call and heard that the other party was from the He family. She thought that He Miao’s family had sent someone to look for her, so she quickly asked the front desk to let him in and invited him to the guest room to wait.
They waited for an hour, and it was already half-past seven in the evening when Jing Yan came back with his men.
Seeing that the time was almost up, he anxiously but helplessly handed He Miao over to the person who came to pick her up. He worriedly instructed, “Don’t worry, I’ll come and pick you up in a while.”
!!
“Alright, I know.” He Miao knew exactly what would happen to Jing Yan during this period of time, so she did not deliberately make things difficult for him at this critical moment.
It was one thing to know that he was the biological father of this body, but it was another to make him know and believe her. Moreover, He Miao had not even thought about whether she should immediately tell He Chen about this.
If her father had also come through a book, it would be great if he remembered her as his daughter.
However, what she did not know was that even if He Chen did not have his memories, he would still treat her well.
When he received news from the person in charge of taking He Miao home that He Miao had already gotten into the car, He Chen excitedly asked the butler to push the wheelchair and insisted on waiting at the door.
It was freezing cold, and the butler was afraid that the pain in his master’s leg would flare up again, so he could not help but advise, “Miss He will be here soon. Why don’t you wait in the living room for a while? It’s too cold outside. If you catch a cold, Miss He will be heartbroken when she finds out the truth.”
He Chen only hesitated for a moment before he ordered him not to persuade him further. He stubbornly insisted on waiting for her outside the door.
She was his and Ye Ning’s daughter. He could not wait to see her and tell her the good news.
The car’s headlights appeared from the corner far away. When it got closer, the driver saw his master in the wheelchair and quickly turned off the lights. After the car stopped, he got up and opened the door for He Miao in the back seat.
As he watched the beautiful girl walk out of the car, He Chen could not help but turn his wheelchair and slowly move to He Miao. “My good child, you’re finally here. Are you cold? Come and rest with me.”
He Miao lowered her eyes to look at her father’s face, her heart slightly aching as she nodded and said, “Alright, Uncle He.”
When she finally sat down in the living room, He Chen personally poured her a glass of warm milk. He smiled and placed the glass on the table in front of her. “Drink this first to warm your body. Have you had dinner? If you haven’t, I’ll ask the kitchen to cook something for you.”
He Miao shook her head lightly. “I haven’t eaten yet. Uncle He, why did you call me here this time?”
When she arrived, He Chen’s men specifically asked her to come. This could only mean that she was He Chen’s only target and not Jing Yan. She really could not imagine what value she had that would make the head of the He family, who was at the peak of his career, think about her.
Could it be because of her fragrance-making company?
The more He Miao thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible. She furrowed her brows and stared at He Chen, waiting to hear what he wanted to say to her with a cold expression.
He Chen subconsciously gulped nervously. After being in power for so many years, this was the first time he was so nervous. The moment he thought about the little girl in front of him being his and Ye Ning’s child, He Chen’s heart could not help but race.
It turned out that in this world, Ye Ning had left him a child. Was this the opportunity she left for him to atone for his sins?
“Miaomiao, I do have something to tell you.” He Chen lowered his head slightly and stared at his crippled legs in embarrassment. His voice was deep and hoarse. “When I was in university, I was in love with a woman. At that time, the entire school recognized us as a match made in heaven. But did you know? in fact, I didn’t like her at first. In fact, I even got together with her for a despicable reason.”
“What reason?” He Miao tactfully followed his lead and asked.
He Chen’s gaze became distant. It was not easy to recall an unforgettable memory because when he saw the person he had long remembered in his mind again, but he would never be able to see her again in reality, his heart would feel a suffocating pain.
However, in order to make He Miao believe him, he decided to expose the wound.
At that time, he and He Miao’s mother, Ye Ning, were both outstanding students. They represented the school in different kinds of competitions and brought a lot of honor to the school. Therefore, the two of them were called the top students by the whole school.
As a straight-A student, He Chen was quite conceited and never wasted his time on unimportant people. It was only when he saw Ye Ning at a competition that he realized what a goddess was.
Ye Ning was too beautiful, so beautiful that everyone on campus would naturally have a good impression of her.
He Chen was no exception, but he was unwilling to admit that he would be moved by a body.
