There was a pain in her ears, Shu Ran suddenly opened her eyes, looked at the person who appeared in front of her in disbelief, and sat up from the back of the sofa.
A hint of panic flashed across Xi Muxin's face, and her breath seemed a little disordered. She couldn't help but hold on to her handbag, but there was an awkward smile on her face, "Well, of course, I came today because -"
"Xi Muxin!" The door was pushed open by a strong force. Ran Qidong appeared at the door and looked at Xi Muxin with a cold face, and shouted in a cold voice, "What are you doing here? Get out!"
Shu Ran was very disgusted with her father's cold shouts, because she had often heard him yelling at Shu Tongya like this since she was a child. Although Shu Tongya was not a fuel-efficient lamp, this made her familiar low shouts come again.
It shattered her inner peace.
"I came here specifically to apologize to Ran Ran today!" Xi Muxin said hastily. Seeing Ran Qidong striding over and pulling her hand involuntarily, she hurriedly explained, "Qidong, I really came to apologize to her.
, I really have no other ideas, ah——"
Xi Muxin was dragged out by Ran Qidong, and after pushing Xi Muxin out of the room, he looked back at Shu Ran who was sitting on the sofa, with a strange emotion flashing in his eyes, and whispered: "Have a rest for a while, don't be exhausted.
Got it!"
After Ran Qidong finished speaking, he strode out of the room. Just as he was about to close the door, he saw Lin Xuejing coming back. She didn't know what she said at the door. Lin Xuejing responded with "Yeah, yeah," and waited for the footsteps to go away.
Lin Xuejing just came in, closed the door, and said, "Uncle Ran asked me to tell you that if your feet hurt, you can ask the hotel waiter to get you a basin of hot water and soak them first. It won't take long!"
Lin Xuejing paid attention to Shu Ran's expression as she spoke. The expression on Shu Ran's face, who was sitting on the sofa, was faint. It was impossible to guess her inner emotions at this time.
Shu Ran looked at the door quietly. The way Ran Qidong looked at her when she left just now was mixed with guilt and worry, and the words he said before leaving were the first time in so many years that he had done so.
The words of concern made Shu Ran's heart feel as if she had knocked over a five-flavor bottle. The sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, and salty things stimulated her nerves. Somehow, when she faced the look in his eyes just now, she had the urge to cry!
Perhaps what she had longed for deep down in her heart was given to her at a moment when she was unprepared. In an ordinary family, this was just a father's simple words of concern for his children, but she always
Been waiting for so many years!
"Of course, ah, why is your hair on the left side messy?" Lin Xuejing came over and looked at Shu Ran's hair on the left side that was a little messy. She quickly took out her dressing tools and started to tidy them up. As soon as the comb fell to her ear.
, Shu Ran couldn't help but let out a low cry.
"What's wrong? It hurts?" Lin Xuejing took the comb and did not continue to comb it. Instead, she looked at Shu Ran with a look of pain on her face and wondered, how could her hair be messed up?
"It's okay, I just feel like my scalp hurts because my hair was pulled just now!" Shu Ran stretched out her hand and rubbed it, and then Lin Xuejing started to comb it carefully.
"What are Xi Muxin doing here?" Lin Xuejing was curious. Uncle Ran seemed to have lost his temper at the door just now. When he pushed Xi Muxin directly out the door, he almost collided with her. She did not miss the angry expression on Uncle Ran's face just now, and Xi Muxin's face.
It was not good either. The subtle eye contact between the two couples shocked Lin Xuejing.
Shu Ran was still gently rubbing the base of her ears, which was close to the roots of her hair, and shook her head slightly, "I'm not sure either!"
Will Xi Muxin come to apologize to her? She thinks this statement is a bit unlikely, but what can she do?

In the hotel corridor, Xi Muxin was pushed to the corner by Ran Qidong and looked at her coldly, "I said you are not allowed to have ideas about my daughter. Are you turning a deaf ear to my words?"
Xi Muxin gasped for breath, her hand was held tightly by Ran Qidong. She couldn't break free and was in pain when she saw someone coming over there. She hurriedly whispered, "I told her that I came to help her with what happened that day."
I'm sorry, why don't you believe me? Now ask her yourself if I have done or said anything to her. I haven't even said a word of apology and you are here. Have you seen what I have done?
Did it hurt her?"
Ran Qidong's eyes were fixed on Xi Muxin, as if he wanted to see whether she was lying from her eyes, and he snorted coldly, "You'd better not have any thoughts on her, otherwise, hum -" Ran
Qidong released Xi Muxin's hand and turned his back and said lightly: "The wedding is about to start, go back!"
"I, I'm going to the bathroom, I'll be there soon!" Xi Muxin saw that Ran Qidong had no intention of leaving her to go to the bathroom alone, so she could only point to the bathroom across the aisle, "Wait here, I
Come out right away!"
Xi Muxin went to the bathroom, while Ran Qidong was standing at the door waiting. When Xi Muxin entered the bathroom, she walked into a single room. The moment she closed the door, her hands couldn't help but tremble. Ignoring her trembling hands, she hurriedly used
The other hand took out a small sealed plastic bag from the bag, spread out the palm of her tightly clenched fist, and her nervous eyes fell on the two burgundy hairs wrapped around her fingers.

"Why do I always feel that you are uneasy?" Zhang Chenchu helped Shang Qingwen receive the guests outside, and told Shang Qingwen with a hint of surprise on his face, "Your grandfather and your brother are here! That's it!
Sit in front and greet the guests, Qing Wen, you can rest assured now!"
Shang Qingwen frowned slightly as he listened. He took a deep breath and looked up at Si Lan, who was sitting on the same sofa. "Everyone who comes in needs to be strictly controlled!"
"Don't worry, people from Langrun are doing this, and your invitations must be mechanically scanned and confirmed before they can be entered. Don't you feel reassured?" Si Lan said and looked at Shang Qingwen.
He looked at it and raised his eyebrows, "Qing Wen, this is not like you. Why have you suddenly become so unsure?"
Shang Qingwen didn't reply, he just frowned and didn't relax, waiting for someone to knock on the door and tell him that the wedding was about to start. He picked up the glass of red wine on the coffee table, drank it and stood up.
, arranged his clothes and looked at the door.
"Let's go!"
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
When all the lights in the hall gathered on the wedding stage set up in the center, behind the door, Ran Qidong looked at Shu Ran standing next to him. The woman in a snow-white wedding dress was already a head taller than him.
The little girl is now a tall and graceful girl. He thinks that the only time he held her was on the day she was born. The moment the swaddled baby opened his eyes and looked at him, he truly realized what it means to be a father.
happiness, but he was an unqualified bastard father. He gave her life, but failed to give her a happy family and a happy childhood. This man had never acted coquettishly in front of him and called her affectionately.
The girl he calls "daddy" is now going to get married, and the love he cannot give will be given by another man from now on.
Ran Qidong's eyes were fixed on Shu Ran who was standing next to him. The father and daughter still had no communication. While listening to the high-pitched voice of the host on the other side of the door, he stretched out his hand towards her, and that hand held his hand for a long time.
He was frozen in mid-air without receiving any response from Shu Ran. Ran Qidong's eyes flashed with pain. His outstretched hand still maintained that posture, and his voice choked with sobs, "Ran Ran, dad, let me get you married!"
It is said that the daughter is the lover of the father in his previous life, so every daughter is the heart and soul of the father. When another man wants to take over the daughter from the father's hand, the father is the most reluctant to let go!
Shu Ran's face was covered by a veil. No one could see Shu Ran's expression at this time. Only Lin Xuejing, who was closest, saw a string of tears falling on the bouquet of flowers Shu Ran held in her hand.
Dad! Dad!
Shu Ran shouted in her heart, and tears flowed out uncontrollably. How much she hated Ran Qidong in her heart. He gave her life but failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father. What he brought her was a depressing family life.
It was a childhood that almost caused her to collapse. Every time she struggled in her heart, she hated her so much that she swore that she would never call him father again. But at this time, she was so bitter and heartbroken by the long-lost "Dad" in his mouth that she was overwhelmed.
All strong defenses.
She tremblingly stretched out her arm to hold her side, feeling her father's trembling arm as well, her tears welled up again.
At the moment the door opened, as the emcee enthusiastically introduced "The wedding is about to begin!" amidst the sound of music, Shu Ran walked slowly to the ceremony stage under the leadership of Ran Qidong.
Under the light, through the veil in front of her, Shu Ran's tearful eyes focused on the man standing opposite.
It's not far from here to his position. Under the light, the mature and steady man's eyes are also staring at her tightly. He has seen many wedding scenes, but they were all in the audience. Now he is standing here
On the stage, I realized that even though there were many people around me, all I could see was him standing opposite!
The emcee's warm words kicked off the wedding, and the music slowly rose. Shu Ran took the first step under the guidance of her father, and took a step closer to him. Through a veil, she seemed to see the corner of his mouth.
A slight smile adorned.
His smile was like a beacon in the sea, giving her the courage to move forward. When she took the second step, the heartbeat in her chest suddenly increased!
However, just when everyone was immersed in this touching joy, a sudden voice came out loudly from a certain corner, "Shang Qingwen, you hypocrite, you bastard!"
