"Just when I passed out, didn't I just eat my stomach and faint by the side of the road? It was Dad who saw me being rescued and sent to the hospital. He signed the surgical list so that I could have surgery. When I woke up, I recognized him as Dad. "

As Deng Yuzhen said that, her face started to flush. Mo Bao kept feeling that something was amiss.

"What does your godfather do? You're in a hurry to pick you up before school is even out, is there something wrong? " When Mo Bao saw the man sitting in the front passenger seat turn his head slightly, she immediately added: "I was just curious, and wanted to eat hotpot with you after school."

"Hot pot. Alright, I haven't eaten hot pot in a long time." Deng Yuzhen's appetite was aroused, she told Mo Bao that it was because of Father Qian's business trip a few days ago that he had only just arrived home in the afternoon, and that he was worried that she would return to school so quickly to pick her up. Deng Yuzhen told Mo Bao not to be anxious, and that when they returned home and saw her godfather, she would bring them to eat hotpot.

"Mo Bao, don't worry, my godfather is a good person, he's very kind and would even cook for me. The noodles he cooked were delicious, one night when I was starving in the middle of the night, he cooked for me."

When Deng Yuzhen said this, her eyes were bright, as though something was flowing inside, causing Mo Bao to become more and more apprehensive, towards this Mr Qian who suddenly appeared halfway.

Especially when the car drove into the grand gate, and entered the nearly one hundred square meter fountain pool, Mo Bao subconsciously held tightly onto Deng Yuzhen. Facing the doubtful gaze of her tablemate, Mo Bao awkwardly laughed: "This is the first time I'm in such a trenches, I'm a bit scared."

"Don't be afraid, my dad is a good person, Mo Bao, how about you stay here tonight, we can have a good chat."

"Hehehehe, we'll talk about it when the time comes. I still want to go back. Why don't you come back with me to my house?"

Mo Bao thought, she really hoped that Xuan Ye would come to save her sooner. She didn't know whether or not he would immediately come to find her when she didn't return on time.

On the steps, two uniformed attendants were waiting. As soon as they got off the carriage, the servants immediately bowed, welcoming the young miss home and the distinguished guests.

Did he have to exaggerate so much?

This was the first time Mo Bao had enjoyed such treatment. Un, she could be considered to have been welcomed by a whole lot of people!

"Let's go."

Deng Yuzhen pulled Mo Bao's hand and walked up the steps. She did not glance at him, as she was already used to it. Mo Bao was not used to it, but her attention was quickly diverted.

A middle-aged man in blue trousers, a white shirt, and a blue vest was sitting on a comfortable sofa, reading a newspaper. The noise at the door made him stand up as he put down the newspaper in his hands.

He had a well-maintained body, unlike the beer bellies and jowls of many men of his age. He had a neatly trimmed beard, and his eyes, which had been soaked in the sea of commerce for many years, were refined.

"Dad." When Deng Yuzhen saw the man, she immediately let go of Mo Bao's hand and rushed over. To be exact, she shook off Mo Bao's hand, but when Mo Bao saw her empty palm, and how Deng Yuzhen directly rushed into the man's embrace and leaned on him, a lot of feelings welled up in her heart.

"Alright, alright. Daddy is acting like a spoiled child right after he returned. Why aren't you introducing your classmate to daddy?"

The man spoke frankly. His two hands lightly patted Deng Yuzhen's shoulders and a pair of deep eyes looked at Mo Bao. As their gazes met, Mo Bao did not see anything in the other party's eyes.

Deng Yuzhen also seemed to have finally remembered that there was still Mo Bao. She exited the man's embrace and waved towards Mo Bao. Seeing Mo Bao blankly standing there, Deng Yuzhen ran over and pulled Mo Bao to stand in front of the man.

"Dad, this is my tablemate, and also my best friend, Mo Bao."

"Mo Bao, this is my foster father."

"Just call me Uncle Liao." The man extended his hand towards Mo Bao in a kind manner. With the attitude of an elder facing a junior, he also showed respect.

"Hello, Uncle Liao."

Mo Bao reached out his hand, gently shook it, and the other party released him. He brought a present to Deng Yuzhen, and also passed it to him, thanking Mo Bao for taking care of Deng Yuzhen.

Deng Yuzhen took the gift from her godfather first and stuffed it into Mo Bao's hands, then winked at her: "I'll treat you well, Mo Bao, I'll tell you this, you can't reject me, if not I'll be hurt, open it and see if you like it." As Deng Yuzhen spoke, she already impatiently opened half of the letter for Mo Bao.

The present was an exquisite blue colored student's watch, with a new style and delicate features. Mo Bao's attention was no longer focused on the gift, but on a piece of paper inside the box. The symbol on the paper was a mermaid.

Now that she touched the Mermaid Clan's emblem, Mo Bao's fingers became a little cold. She raised her head and looked at the man sitting on the sofa opposite her.

Deng Yuzhen's present was a very pretty set of hiking clothes. She happily ran to her room to try it on, only Mo Bao and the man opposite her were left in the living room.

"Mo Bao, drink your tea. It's cold later."

"Thank you, Uncle Liao."

My name is Liao Jianghai, speaking of fate, I was also picked up by my adoptive parents, just like how I saw Yu Jin when she fainted on the roadside, seeing her recover to her health, happily growing up, I can finally understand my responsibilities as a parent, I am even more grateful to my adoptive parents, but unfortunately for them to raise me, I did not have the time to do anything to show filial piety, and they died.

However, it was only for a moment, and he had already regained his composure. He had told Mo Bao all of this so that he did not need to worry about Mo Bao having any other intentions in her mind, that he would only have Deng Yuzhen as his daughter in this life, and that after he left for a hundred years, he would leave everything to Deng Yuzhen.

This was an explanation and also a kind of honesty. Mo Bao tried to ask Liao Jianghai how long sshe had picked up Deng Yuzhen and how long he had been running out of Lei's Restaurant, two days late, and Mo Bao did not know what Deng Yuzhen had experienced in the past two days. Her question drew Liao Jianghai's attention, and the look in her eyes deepened as he looked at Mo Bao.

", do you know if Yu Zhen's body has a problem?"

"Me?"

"You are Deng Yuzhen's best friend, she has always been thinking of you, I hope..."

"I do know. You don't need to say anything more. Then does Uncle Liao know what happened to her?" Mo Bao retorted back, but her eyes continued to stare at Liao Jianghai, not letting go of the change in his expression. Even though Liao Jianghai's look of astonishment was quickly concealed, she had still managed to catch it.
