Li Jinzong’s facial muscles quivered, his eyes became watery, and his heart ached.

He knew that Fang Meixian didn’t like Li Weiyin. She suffered when she was giving birth to her and she didn’t raise her by her side after she was born. On the other hand, Li Weixin had always been a sweet talker. Human emotions were like that, one had to accompany the other for their feelings to grow.

He had argued with Fang Meixian about this many times in private, but he had to manage his company and go on business trips, so he didn’t have much time to spend at home. At the same time, he was worried that his actions would backfire and Fang Mexian would hate Li Weiyin even more.

Leaning his head against the head of the bed, Li Jinzong suddenly recalled the year when Li Weiyin was 12.

It was a rainy day. Li Weiyin and Li Weixin attended the same school. At that time, Li Weiyin had just entered junior high, while Li Weixin was still in primary.

The two girls were only a few steps apart, but Fang Meixian went to pick up Li Weixin and left without even handing Li Weiyin an umbrella.

The rain did not stop. Li Weiyin braved the heavy rain and ran home on her home. That was when she happened to run into him.

The moment they opened the front door, Li Weiyin was dripping wet while Fang Meixian was drying Li Weixin with a towel.

At that time, Li Weiyin did not say a word and walked past like she didn’t see a thing. Her indifference broke Li Jinzong’s heart.

Back then, he should have realized that her indifference was due to habit.

That this happened more than he knew…

Li Jinzong opened his eyes and said in a raspy voice, “Yinyin, if you want freedom, I can sign this letter and let you move out. I don’t need you to marry into the Xu Family.”

This was, perhaps, the last thing he could do for his grown-up and independent daughter.

“Dad, I need protection”—Li Weiyin smiled—”Han Qiu is out of prison.”

Li Jinzong was shocked. Even Li Weixin and Fang Meixian’s expression changed.

Assistant Yang noted their reactions in his mind.

Li Weiyin turned and looked at Assistant Yang. Stretching out her fair slender hand, she said, “Can you give that to me?”

Following her gaze, Assistant Yang looked at the letter of disownment and the pen in his hands and handed them to Li Weiyin without hesitation.

Li Weiyin received it and placed it on the table, “Dad, you don’t have a choice anymore.”

Li Jinzong understood that the Li Family couldn’t collapse. If it did, Han Qiu, the monster, would take advantage of his daughter!

If his daughter had married into the Lou Family, how good would that have been? She could have distanced herself from this place. With this thought, Li Jinzong couldn’t help but glare at Fang Meixian.

“Who knows if the Han Family were the ones that caused this crisis…” Fang Meixian mumbled.

If that was the case, then Li Weiyin was the one that attracted trouble for the family.

Assistant Yang looked at Fang Meixian speechlessly. If he didn’t investigate Li Weiyin on behalf of Mrs. Xu, he would have thought that Li Weiyin was an adopted daughter or Li Jinzong’s illegitimate child.

This sentence helped Li Jinzong make his decision. Holding onto the pen, he quickly signed his name on the letter.

With a family and mother like this, he had no right to expect any sentimental feelings from Li Weiyin.

“I still have something to do, I’ll get going.” After his mission was accomplished, Assistant Yang had no reason to stay, so he stood up and bid farewell.

“I’ll walk you out,” Li Weiyin offered.

After they reached the underground parking lot, Li Weiyin said, “I need to be honest with you about Han Qiu. I hope you can convey this information to Mrs. Xu…”

Mrs. Xu was busy so she didn’t get the chance to suddenly mention it before.
