Ma Xiangming looked embarrassed. "Chu Jie, I was wrong to you back then."
"You can hit me or scold me, but I really can't help it."
"Wang Ping has gone mad; I can't afford to offend her."
"Chu Jie, for the sake of our past love, please forgive me!"
I shot him a fierce glare.
Forgive him?
How could I!
If he hadn't abandoned me back then, I wouldn't have nearly died on the delivery bed!
I wouldn't have had to raise Chao Ran all by myself!
I wouldn't have almost died in the hospital!
All of this was thanks to him!
Seeing that I remained silent, Ma Xiangming thought I was softening.
He took my hand and gently stroked it. "Chu Jie, we were both young and impulsive back then."
"Now that we're older, let's just let the past be the past."
I yanked my hand back. "Ma Xiangming!"
"You know you're old?"
"Then why can't you control your daughter?"
"I haven't even brought up the issue of your daughter bothering my Chao Ran yet!"
Ma Xiangming was taken aback. "Xiao Jia said your Chao Ran is bothering her!"
I scoffed coldly. "Did she also tell you that my Chao Ran is just a poor kid with no money or power?"
Ma Xiangming fell silent, clearly conceding.
I sneered. "Ma Xiangming, you really don't know how to recognize treasure!"
"My Chao Ran is a math genius! Guaranteed admission to Tsinghua!"
"And your daughter can't even step through the threshold of Tsinghua!"
Ma Xiangming's eyes twitched slightly. "That doesn't prove my daughter is bothering your family, Chao Ran."
I raised an eyebrow and looked at him. "Ma Xiangming, you really haven't changed at all."
"You used to like shirking responsibility, and you still do."
Ma Xiangming's expression darkened. "Chu Jie, don't go too far!"
"No matter what, I was once your boyfriend!"
Boyfriend?
How ridiculous!
I tossed my bank card at him. "Take your worthless money and get lost!"
"Don't ever show up in front of me or Chao Ran again!"
After Ma Xiangming left, I remained distracted.
He always lingered like a ghost, and I worried he would affect Chao Ran and Yun Nuo.
The two kids had finally grown up; they couldn't be harmed by this scumbag.
I sat on the sofa, anxiously staring blankly at the television screen.
Suddenly, I heard some noise at the entrance.
I thought it was Chao Ran returning, but when I looked up, it was Yun Nuo.
She stood at the door, changing her shoes while carrying a bag.
Yun Nuo is my daughter, a law school graduate who now works with Chu Jie.
She rarely comes home; why is she back today?
"Mom, what are you watching on TV?"
Yun Nuo walked over with a smile and sat down.
I pressed the pause button and asked, "Yun Nuo, have you eaten?"
"If not, I can make you a bowl of noodles?"
Yun Nuo waved her hand. "No need, Mom. I'm leaving soon."
I was surprised. "So soon?"
Yun Nuo nodded. "Yeah... I came back today to take care of something."
"I'll find you guys after I'm done."
I was puzzled. "What is it?"
Yun Nuo scratched her head. "I'll tell you later."
I sighed. "Alright then."
Yun Nuo looked at me curiously. "Mom, what's wrong?"
"Did something happen?"
I hesitated, unsure whether to share my thoughts.
Noticing my unease, Yun Nuo's tone turned serious. "Mom, just tell me the truth."
"Is it that bald old man again?"
Last time?
Oh... she was referring to Ma Xiangming.
She didn't know that Ma Xiangming was my ex-boyfriend.
And she certainly didn't know that Ma Xiangming was her father!
