This voice of mine, "I'm back," brought Qin Xi back from her astonishment. On her stunning face, her expression gradually turned cold.

Yang Chen clearly saw the expression on Qin Xi's face change from astonishment to stunned disbelief, and finally to overwhelming hatred.

Five years ago, the two were framed. For the sake of reputation, Yang Chen was forced to marry into the Qin family by his own family, while Qin Xi had always been a woman who valued chastity above life and thus accepted this fate.

But she never expected that after less than a month of marriage, Yang Chen would suddenly disappear. It wasn't until her mother told her that this man had taken the 500,000 yuan her father had given him.

At that moment, she discovered she was pregnant.

Later, the Qin family took advantage of her confinement days and, using Qin Xi as a disgrace to the family, forcibly seized the Sanhe Group she had founded.

Thinking of those dark days, countless nights when she secretly shed tears, Qin Xi felt nothing but hatred for this man who had abandoned her without a word.

"If you were dead, I would have accepted it, but you disappeared for five years and now reappear before me, tearing open the scars of my past. Are you happy about this"

Qin Xi roared with pain, as if she wanted to vent all the emotions that had been suppressed in her heart for years.

Looking at his beloved woman in so much pain, Yang Chen's heart was like a knife twisting.

"Xiaoxi, I'm sorry!"

Yang Chen stepped forward, his face full of sincerity. Besides apologizing, he didn't know what else to say.

"Five years ago, why did you leave without a word" Qin Xi lightly bit her red lips, her eyes fixed on Yang Chen.

"I want to be worthy of you!" Looking at the stunning beauty right in front of him, Yang Chen responded with conviction. Before returning this time, he had vowed that he would never let the woman before him suffer any harm again.

"Huh!"

Qin Mu suddenly let out a cold laugh, sarcastically looking at Yang Chen: "You speak better than you sing. Back then, it was you who took the initiative to find Old Qin, saying that as long as Old Qin gave you 500,000 yuan, you would never see Xiaoxing again."

Yang Chen immediately denied, "I didn't!"

A mesmerizing light flashed in his pupils, making Qin Mu realize that she was framing him.

Qin Mu sneered repeatedly: "No Then I ask you, five years ago, did Lao Qin give you 500,000 yuan"

Yang Chen explained: "I borrowed 500,000 yuan from my father-in-law, but I didn't use it. The next day, I returned every penny to my father-in-law."

"Fart! After you took the money, you vanished completely. I didn't see you until today. When are you going to return my money" Qin's father immediately denied it.

She followed her husband's lead, not giving Yang Chen a chance to explain. She was determined to pin the crime of taking money and running on him.

Bang!

Qin Xi raised her hand and slapped Yang Chen, pointing at the door and saying emotionally: "Get out! Get out of here!"

"Wow..."

The little girl who had been hugging Yang Chen tightly burst into tears: "Mommy, don't drive Daddy away. Other kids all have Daddies, only I don't. I want Daddy, Mommy, please don't drive Daddy away! Don't drive Daddy away!"

The little girl was crying uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face. She held onto Yang Chen's neck tightly with both hands, afraid that if she let go, she would never see her father again.

Qin Xi panicked instantly, and she didn't even bother to continue blaming Yang Chen. She hurriedly hugged her daughter and held her tightly in her arms, repeatedly saying: "Mommy won't drive Daddy away, won't drive Daddy away, Xiaoxiao don't cry, don't cry."

She spoke, tears silently sliding from her eyes. No matter how much she hated this man, he was still her daughter's father. For her daughter, she was willing to do anything, endure anything.

"Daddy, Mommy has already promised XiaoXiao that she won't chase you away, so you promise XiaoXiao that you'll never leave Mommy and XiaoXiao again, okay" XiaoXiao said to Yang Chen while crying and looking at him hopefully.

The mother and daughter's voices were not loud, but to Yang Chen's ears, they sounded like a bolt from the blue, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.

At the airport, when Yang Chen first saw Xiaoxiao, he realized that her facial features were strikingly similar to his own. Xiaoxiao was about four years old. All of this told Yang Chen that Xiaoxiao was his biological daughter!

Could it be that, because of what happened five years ago, Xiaoxiao was born

Ten months of pregnancy, today is Xiaoxiao's fourth birthday again. Adding it up, she's almost five years old, which perfectly matches the time I left.

Yang Chen the more he thought about it the more shocked he became, suddenly he quickly walked forward, looking at the beautiful woman with tear-filled eyes, tremblingly asked: "She, is she our daughter"

Qin Xi's face was conflicted, and after a long pause, she nodded. He was the child's father and had the right to know the truth.

Although Yang Chen had already guessed it, he was still incredibly excited when Qin Xi confirmed it personally.

A generation of war god, at this moment, actually shed tears, with both guilt and shame.

Yang Chen suddenly held his daughter in his arms and whispered in her ear, "Dad promises you, for the rest of his life, he will never leave you and Mom again."

Though the voice was soft, it carried a resounding force. Those who make promises do not do so lightly; once given, they are for life.

"Let go of my granddaughter!"

Just at this warm moment, Qin's mother took three steps forward and snatched Xiaoxiao from Yang Chen's hands.

Yang Chen was afraid of hurting the child, so he could only give up the fight for custody.

A surge of rage welled up within him, but when he saw his daughter and thought of Qin Xi's pain of carrying her for ten months and giving birth in a single day, as well as the rumors and humiliation she had endured alone all these years, Yang Chen managed to quell the anger.

"Xiao Xi, I know you're soft-hearted, but this time, your father and I will absolutely not watch you jump into the fire pit again."

Qin's mother glared with fury, then pointed at the table piled high with gold and silver jewelry. "This is the dowry Wang Jian brought. Your father and I have already accepted it for you. Now, go and get a divorce from this good-for-nothing, then prepare to marry Wang Jian."

Before the couple even mentioned divorce, Qin's mother had already started planning for Qin Xi to remarry.

If it weren't for his wife and daughter, he would have acted long ago.

"Wow..."

Xiao Xiao cried again: “Grandma, don't drive Dad away, I want Dad, please don't drive Dad away.”

Although the little girl was young, she understood what Qin Mu said and burst into tears again. This broke Yang Chen's heart, as he was a new father.

Qin Mu's face was full of impatience. She coldly scolded, "Qin Xiaoxiao, shut your mouth! Your father is already dead, he's not your father, if you cry again, I'll lock you in the darkroom."

Qin Xiaoxiao's body trembled visibly, and she didn't dare to cry out again. She could only hold it in, only gasping for breath and weeping silently. Her pitiful appearance was heartbreaking; she looked at Qin Xi then at Yang Chen.

Seeing his daughter so afraid, Yang Chen knew that Qin's mother had definitely locked her up before.

The anger in his heart surged up, and at that moment, the temperature of the entire room seemed to drop several degrees. do with you.""Haha, now, can I take these chips"After Qin Dayong threw down his cards, he excitedly went to collect the chips."My cards, you haven't seen them yet, and you're already sure you can win...
