Chapter Thirty-Eight: Sisters
Ding dong!
The doorbell rings.
Xia Shuyan hurriedly ran over to open the door.
Seeing the middle-aged man standing at the door, Xia Shuyan was stunned at first, and then shouted with red eyes: "Dad!" โ
When Xing Wei saw his daughter, he showed a long-lost smile, and his heavy black-rimmed glasses reflected a little tears.
"Yan Yan, you have grown a lot taller and become more beautiful again."
Xia Shuyan pursed her lips tightly, not letting herself cry, nodded again and again, and at the same time stepped forward to take her father's hand and said, "Dad, come in and say." โ
Xing Wei glanced into the room with some embarrassment.
Seeing this, Xia Shuyan said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, my mother said that I would work overtime tonight and come back very late." โ
Xing Wei breathed a sigh of relief and walked into the house.
Xia Shuyan's home area is not large, with a decent three-bedroom and two-living room, and the orientation is not very good, and the sun can only be basked in the evening.
It was already night, the room was a little deserted, and there was a bowl of boiled vegetables and two corns on the table, a simple dinner.
Xia Shuyan poured a cup of hot water and threw a small pinch of Longjing tea into it.
"Dad, you drink saliva."
Xing Wei took the teacup and sat on the sofa in the living room with some restraint.
His eyes fell on a few photos hanging on the wall, there was no figure of him in the photos, they were all photos of his ex-wife Xia Hong and daughter Xia Shuyan, the most conspicuous of which was Xia Hong's young appearance, holding two little girls in his arms, and the three of them laughed happily.
So many years have passed.
The two daughters have grown up, and Xia Hong, who disliked his nest at the beginning, is now the leader of the district office, thinking of this, Xing Wei is full of sighs.
Xia Shuyan is also observing her father, and in her memory, her father Xing Wei is an honest person who can not be offended by anyone.
One of the most impressive things is that when I was in the third grade, I was bullied by a male classmate in the same class, and behind the beautiful little skirt, someone painted a big king eight with watercolors.
At that time, he cried and asked his father to teach the boy a lesson, but instead of teaching the other party, his father asked his sister, who stood out for him, to apologize to the boy, because the sister beat the boy's nose and bleed.
At that time, I wished I didn't have this father.
So much so that when my mother publicly scolded my father several times for being a wreck, I stood firmly behind my mother.
The once childish behavior made Xia Shuyan feel ashamed.
When she grew up, she realized that her father's intentions were good, and if her sister didn't apologize to the other party, she would be punished with a demerit.
But what about your beloved little dress?
Xia Shuyan didn't say anything, but also hoped that his father was a strong man who could protect the two sisters.
"Dad, you suddenly came to me, did you have any trouble at home?"
Normally, Xing Wei can only visit on her birthday, which is stipulated by Xia Hong, otherwise he will call the police.
Xing Wei has abided by this rule for so many years and did not dare to disobey it, for fear that Xia Hong would not let him see his daughter.
Therefore, he suddenly came to Xia Shuyan, and the first thing Xia Shuyan thought of was whether something happened at home.
Xing Wei glanced at Xia Shuyan and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Yan Yan, can you help Dad persuade your sister?" โ
When Xia Shuyan heard this, his face changed.
She has a very bad relationship with her sister Xing Lina, starting from the day her parents divorced.
Because Xia Hong chose her instead of choosing her sister's relationship, Xing Lina is like a different person.
I still remember that when I was in my first year of high school, my sister had become a notorious bastard, she was rebellious and painted thick smoky makeup, and bullied her classmates with her height and weight advantage, even the boys at school had to avoid three points when they saw her.
Xia Shuyan felt ashamed of having such a sister for a while, and when she saw Xing Lina, she lowered her head and walked around.
It wasn't until I went to college that I found that Xing Lina had changed, and even became a popular figure in the university town for a time, but the two never intersected, Xing Lina didn't want to see her, and she didn't bother to put a cold ass with a hot face, and Zhou Ziqin was the one who knew that they were sisters.
"What's wrong with her?" Xia Shuyan frowned.
Xing Wei was a little ashamed and couldn't speak.
But thinking of her daughter's recent changes, she gritted her teeth and said it.
After listening to his father's story, Xia Shuyan frowned.
"Dad, are you misunderstanding, how can my sister be taken care of, buy a few bags and a few clothes, it can't explain anything."
Xing Wei's head hurt, and he took out a few bills from the mall directly from his trouser pocket, which he found by chance in Xing Lina's house.
Xia Shuyan took it, looked at a few photos, and opened his mouth wide in shock.
"So much money in one night?"
The bill in Xia Shuyan's hand was the shopping receipt of Xing Lina and Lu Xiaochuan in the mall that night.
Xing Lina is worried about the quality of her clothes, and has always had the habit of keeping documents to facilitate follow-up after-sales service.
However, she didn't expect that the documents she left behind would be discovered by her father, and she was mistaken for being fostered.
However, when another person sees these documents worth hundreds of thousands, he will also have this worry.
What's more, it's Xing Wei, who is a daughter slave.
As a father, not being able to give his daughter the life she wants has always been a thorn in his heart.
However, he couldn't watch his daughter jump into the fire pit.
Those men who spend money on women, what are in their hearts, how can he, who is also a man, not understand.
Xia Shuyan looked at the slip in his hand and was a little convinced.
She knew that her sister worked in a foreign company, but her sister had only worked for a year, how could she have so many savings.
Then there is only one possibility, my sister was adopted.
At this moment, no matter how much she didn't want to see this Xing Lina, she felt uncomfortable, it was her sister, her own sister.
When I was a child, when I encountered any trouble, I would always stand up for my sister as soon as possible.
Xia Shuyan covered his face in pain and cried bitterly.
Xing Wei also clenched his fists with self-blame, he couldn't watch his daughter sink like this, but he was so powerless.
Just because, the life his daughter wants, he can't be satisfied as a father.
Father and daughter wept at the same time, but they were also silent at the same time.
Long.
Xia Shuyan raised his head and said, "Dad, I have to tell my mother about this matter, you know my sister's character, neither of us can persuade her, only let my mother say it." โ
Xing Wei was stunned, and he was unwilling in his heart.
If you let your ex-wife know that she raised her daughter like this, wouldn't she have to count herself again?
However, compared to his daughter's future, what is his face?
Xing Wei took a deep breath, nodded and said, "That's all it takes." โ
Xia Shuyan saw his father's lonely expression, and then he reacted, his father didn't go to his mother, but came to find his own reason first.
There was a pause.
Xia Shuyan said: "That's it, I'll try it first, and then let my mother persuade her." โ
Xing Wei's eyes lit up, nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, that's what I mean, Nana loves you the most, and she will definitely listen to what you say." โ
Xia Shuyan smiled bitterly.
People change, if my sister really loves herself, how can she not come to see herself for so many years.
Even when they met at school before, she didn't say a word to herself.
Of course, she would not say these words in front of her father.
In short, I have to try it no matter what, and I can't let my sister fall into the abyss.
"Damn stinky man, you dare to be careful with my sister, don't let me find out, I want you to pay the price!"
Xia Shuyan went against his usual intellectual image, lifted the frame of his glasses, and swore coldly at the shopping receipts on the table.

It's autumn, and the sky has changed.
