Chapter 107 - Father (2)

"Let's go, Grandfather. The dinner must have been prepared by now."

Before going out of the study Xi Ana reminded her grandfather about the dinner although she one can say that their conversation is not something you would call pleasant, her younger brother and all the other people inside the house was so enthusiastic about this dinner and so she didn't want to ruin the mood.

"You can go first, I'll follow you in a while." there might be smile on his face but Xi Ana knew that he is quite troubled by this situation as well and this made Xi Ana feel guilty. He's not getting younger and Xi Ana doing this might cause him to be stressed.

Xi Ana sighed, "I know that all these years you didn't let him go back for good is because you didn't want to hurt me by doing so, it was me who is selfish for letting you do that. If he comes back then it's okay, it's okay now."

She knew that these past few years he's been in contact with her grandfather and he's been trying to go back to them but because Xi Ana kept on rejecting the idea, he was never allowed to come back. Even she herself knows that it was a selfish and immature act on her part.

"Is it really okay now?" there was a glint of hope on his face.

Maybe it was because she can remember clearly what happened that day with her mother that her father leaving made such a huge impact on her. It was also the reason why it's hard for her to let other people in her life, she does not want to have expectations.

"After two years I'll be stepping down from being the president of Xi Corporation that was our deal. If him being here will help Xi Chen before taking over the company then it's fine. That's all, excuse me grandfather I'll be heading out first."

This is the only compromise she can make. As for accepting and forgiving him, she might not rule out that possibility but she can't still see herself to do so for now.

She bowed a little as a sign of respect before going out of the study.

Xi Shendong looked at the exiting figure of his grand daughter and he can't help but sigh. The decision he made was also because he wanted Xi Ana to accept her father again.

He's not young anymore, it is only a matter of time now before he left this world for good. When it comes to material things, his grandchildren already have everything they could ask for.

Xi Ana already married a good man, if he died now it will surely be a regret to see Xi Chen to also have a good woman beside him and also not to be able to see and hold his great-grandchildren but if there is one thing he wanted to witness in this life it would be the reconciliation of Ana and his son-in-law.

He didn't know for how long did he sat there thinking alone and he was only able to come into his senses when their family butler came in.

"Master, I'm sorry for barging in like this but the Young Master has been calling for you for a while now." Butler Cheng said. He can understand this because his grandson also has some spoiled side on him especially when his sister is around.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href="#&apos;s-wife-has-a-secret_14496266906619705/father-(2)_50489436340807568">#&apos;s-wife-has-a-secret_14496266906619705/father-(2)_50489436340807568</a> for visiting.

"Cheng Mu, how long have you been working for the family?"

"I've been working for Master for 26 years now."

"That's quite a long time already huh. Xi Ana was only a year old that time, right?" those were the good old days as they called.

When Xi Ana was born she was treated like a princess by the whole household, it was quite lively and warm. Everyone is happy without pretenses.

"Yes, master. I've seen the young Miss grew up from that toddler, to her rebellious phase, into a fine young woman."

It was indeed a rebellious phase, who would not call it like that when an underage student leave house. That incident really did give him a fright that he thought he would die of a heart attack.

"Ana was quite the father's girl when she was a little, she would always cling to him and ask him to bring her somewhere fun and obviously her father would never say no to her. No matter how busy Shen Feng was, he would always make time to go back before bedtime just to read stories for her."

"Master Feng has always been very doting to both Young Miss and Young Master."

Indeed, Shen Feng has always been like that. He would always put his family first all the time. Xi Shendong would also never question Shen Feng's love for his daughter when he even went as far as to accept being married into their family instead of the other way around.

"Those were the heartwarming days I would pay a lifetime to go back to. When Xi Wei died a lot happened afterwards, thankfully Ana can't remember what happened to them or else I wouldn't know what kind of life would she have been living now but what I can't seem to understand was why her affection towards her father changed that time."

When Shen Feng suddenly decided to leave, he felt like his children were still too young to understand and so he didn't tell the about it. For a while, Xi Ana asked where he was but eventually she stopped doing so.

Ever since then Xi Ana didn't accept any more calls nor gifts from him and acted as if she didnlt have a father at all.

"To say that Shen feng abandoned them would be wrong, right? Cheng Mu, what do you think about it?"

"Master Feng loves them, as for the reason of him leaving only he can answer that."

"I just hope it's not yet too late for them, Shen Feng might not be my son in blood but he is the person my daughter chose and from then on I already see him as my own son."
