C329 Chapter 329
"Is your father going to let you down for an illegitimate daughter?" Gu Meien said, "Your father hoped that you could recover from your illness, which was why he wanted to acknowledge Xia Huanhuan. After all, once your father and Xia Huanhuan's relationship was settled, even if Xia Huanhuan wanted to refuse to donate her bone marrow, she wouldn't be able to do so."
Of course, this was what Gu Meien and Shen Yeding were planning to do, but after tonight's incident with their daughter … Gu Meien wasn't sure if Xia Huanhuan was willing to marry him.
It was obvious that Shen Qili had also realized this problem. In her mind, she recalled the last thing Xia Huanhuan said when she stood in front of her —
"My surname is Xia, not Shen, and whether you are Shen Family's only daughter or not I do not know. I only know that I am Xia Family's daughter and that I am not interested in your Shen Family.
"What if she doesn't recognize him?" Shen Qili finally asked anxiously. She didn't want to die yet. She was still young and hadn't enjoyed her life properly. She absolutely didn't want to die. Even if she did, she should have let someone like Xia Huanhuan die first.
Suddenly, Shen Qili felt that it wasn't fair. Why did she get this disease, while Xia Huanhuan could be safe and sound and even marry into Jun Family?
"She dares not admit it!" Gu Meien snorted, "What's wrong with our Shen Family, could it be that she's really used to treating us as her illegitimate daughter?"
"But …" Shen Qili hesitated for a moment and told her mother what Xia Huanhuan had said. At that time, although Gu Meien was present, when Xia Huanhuan said this, her voice was very low. The only ones who heard it were Shen Yeding and Shen Qili.
Sure enough, after Gu Meien heard this, her eyebrows creased. After pondering for a moment, she said, "No matter what, Mother will definitely ask Xia Huanhuan to donate her bone marrow to you." It's just that you have to promise Mom not to mess around in the future. Just treat today's matter as a lesson. "
"Got it." "No," Shen Qili answered reluctantly. However, she thought that if she got the chance, she would definitely let Xia Huanhuan have a taste of the humiliation she had suffered today.
"Alright, go and apologize to your father later. Today, you even smashed that vase your father bought. See how your father is angered …" Gu Meien muttered.
Shen Qili replied. She knew her father wanted to use Xia Huanhuan to save her. This made her feel good. At the end of the day, Xia Huanhuan's daughter was still her father's daughter in pain. Xia Huanhuan was nothing to him.
Maybe Xia Huanhuan was born to donate her bone marrow for treatment! Shen Qili thought like this.

Within the bedroom, it was pitch black. Only the moonlight could vaguely be seen through the curtains, leaving a faint afterglow.
Xia Huanhuan lay on the bed, but she could not fall asleep no matter what. The events of the night played over and over in her mind, especially what Shen Qili had said.
Shen Yeding is her father? Since her mother knew that Shen Yeding had appeared beside her, why didn't she tell her directly? Last time she saw her mother, her mother had only asked Shen Yeding if he had said anything strange to her. "My mother must have wanted to hide this from me. Was she afraid that she would be injured if she knew of my father's existence?
The last time Shen Yeding showed up downstairs in City Z, he must have come to find his mother on purpose. Shen Yeding probably left because she happened to be back then. And then, had he met his mother? Xia Huanhuan's mind was filled with all kinds of speculations. Even with her eyes closed, she was unable to feel even the slightest bit of sleepiness.
She turned over and sat up from the bed. She lifted up the blanket and was about to stand up to walk when her wrist was suddenly grabbed by the other hand.
"Can't sleep?" A cold voice resounded in the dark room.
She was stunned for a moment. Borrowing the faint moonlight in the room, she could only faintly see the outline of Jun Ziyan lying on the bed. With her other hand, she touched the light switch on the bedside table. She switched on the light, and immediately, the gentle light fell upon the bed, causing her eyes to meet the pair of dark phoenix eyes.
He was looking at her, and the light fell on his face. It was bright, but it also had a shadow. It made his face look like a sculpture, so beautiful that it could make people sigh.
"Did I wake you?" Xia Huanhuan asked in a low voice.
"Nope." Jun Ziyan shook his head and sat up. There was not a trace of sleepiness in her dark phoenix eyes. She had not fallen asleep, and he had always been with her. Why can't I sleep? " he asked.
Xia Huanhuan pursed her lips. For a moment, she didn't know how to put all the speculations in her head into words.
Jun Ziyan didn't press her to ask. He just looked at her quietly, waiting for her reply. If she was willing to speak, then he would listen. If she was unwilling to speak, then he could never ask again.
She lowered her head as if she was thinking about something. He gently touched the spot where her face was slightly red. It was the spot where Shen Qili had slapped him. Although it had already been frozen after he returned home, the redness and swelling didn't disappear that quickly.
He leaned over and carefully blew on the swelling on her cheek with his lips, then leaned over and kissed her. "Kiss, and it won't hurt."
She was stunned for a moment, and on her face, she could clearly feel his warmth and softness. He had always remembered the method she taught him when she was young, and he had always been doing it this way. Even though he knew this method wasn't really enough to stop the pain, he still continued to do it, because as long as she said it, he would unconditionally believe it.
There was originally a slight stabbing pain on her face, but under his kiss, she felt that the stabbing pain was actually being smoothed out one by one.
Xia Huanhuan bit her lips and turned her head slightly. Her gaze met Jun Ziyan's eyes once again. "I have something to say to you." He was her husband, and he should know.
"Alright, go ahead." he said, waiting for her to finish.
"Today, that woman … "Uh, her name seems to be Shen Qili." Thinking about it, she didn't even know the other party's name at the beginning and would even hear Xiaorong come over later to tell her. Xiaorong even recognized that woman. She was the woman who had been constantly looking at them in the cafe previously.
Shen Qili must have known of her existence at that time, and was keeping an eye on her.
