Shen Mingxi knocked on the door, but no one responded.

He was a bit lost and didn’t know what to do for a second. However, he took out his spare key and unlocked the door. He turned the handle and gently opened the door that Tiantian locked up.

“Go away,” Tiantian cried out angrily.

“How long are you planning to run away?” Shen Mingxi asked her calmly.

“You don’t believe me anyways… There’s no point in talking anymore. I would rather run away.”

“You haven’t said anything yet. How can I believe you if you haven’t said anything?”

“The result is the same if I tell you or not. If you really cared about me, you wouldn’t have sent me abroad alone,” Tiantian cried.

Her words were like needles slowly stabbing into Shen Mingxi’s heart.

Before Shen Mingxi could respond, Tiantian added furiously, “I understand. I’m not your child… I’m another man’s bastard. You didn’t even want my mother, but you kept me. That’s already a good treatment, so I can’t hate you. I should be grateful because I would be in a foster home now otherwise. Or worse yet, I’ll be in a more terrifying place. Who knows.”

“Tiantian, when did you become so dark?”

“I didn’t change. My psychologist said that everyone has a dark side… You sent me away, so you can rekindle with your ex-wife. If I were there, would you ever be able to get back with her?”

Shen Mingxi’s heart sank when he heard this. These words did not sound like something a girl Tiantian’s age would say.

Tiantian’s prematurity was not like the Qin twins.

Pudding and Little Bean knew a lot but they were very optimistic in their future and would bring much joy to the people around them.

Tiantian, however, was turning more and more into Huo Yanyan, her mother.

Such a thought gave him shivers of fear.

He took a deep breath and slowly walked towards Tiantian. He kneeled down in front of her and put his hand on her little hand.

“Tiantian, tell me, what happened that day? As long as you tell me, I’ll believe you,” Shen Mingxi said in a gentle tone, trying to pacify Tiantian.

Although it had already passed, he still had the right to know.

He recalled the words of Tiantian’s female homeroom teacher when he finished the paperwork for Tiantian’s departure from the school. “I think you should send her to a foster home. You’ll come to regret it later if you keep her.”

Shen Mingxi didn’t respond back then but he could tell that the homeroom teacher knew something deeper. It wasn’t simply because she disliked Tiantian.

“If I tell you, would you believe me?” Tiantian seemed to calm down.

“As long as you tell the truth, I’ll believe you.”

“Uncle Shen… You can’t blame me for that… I know you spent a lot of money, but you really can’t blame me…” Tiantian lowered her head and her eyes were red.

“I know. I won’t blame you.”

“That day…” Tiantian tried hard to recall what happened that day.

Suddenly, noise came from downstairs.

Shen Mingxi frowned. He got up and opened the door. His heart sank when he saw Huo Yanyan with a big man whose arms were filled with tattoos. “Shen Mingxi, I heard my daughter is back in China now. I want to see her.”
