Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Chapter 646: You Will Be Punished for Hitting Your Father

“Liao Qiulong is quite rich.” Nian Junting nodded. “But I started the investigation before the new year. Jiang Qifei didn’t even know Luosang then. It’s not possible that he found the evidence so quickly.”

“Because…” Nian Qingyun closed his eyes and said, “I’ve been looking into Xu Zhengxuan’s case before the new year, too. Jiang Qifei was in my office previously, and I think she must have seen the documents.”

“…”

Nian Junting was silently glaring at him. A wave of fury overcame him. The whole time, his own father was the cause of all this. He was the reason why Luosang broke up with him, and he was the reason behind his agony these past few days. He was the reason why Luosang said so many hurtful things to him. He was the reason why he stood in the rain like a fool. Fury made him throw punches like a madman.

Nian Qingyun backed away instinctively, and he raised one hand. “I didn’t expect this to happen. I thought something wasn’t right that day when you came to look for me. I asked Xie to look into the matter immediately. Jiang Qifei is too manipulative. Look, I’m telling you the truth right after I found out about what happened. After all, you’re still my son. I won’t let anyone bully you…”

“How dare you?!” Nian Junting’s eyes widened in anger. “I was still boggled as to how Jiang Qifei managed to obtain the evidence before me. It was you! Why did you look into Xu Zhengxuan? Were you planning to threaten her just like Jiang Qifei did?”

“Nonsense.” Nian Qingyun said awkwardly, “You’re with a random girl. Isn’t it normal for a father to find out more about his son’s partner? I just found out about her dad coincidentally.”

“Yeah, you’ve come a long way with your investigations.” Nian Junting mocked him. “You even found out about Zeng Lijuan. You’re even more thorough than me.”

Nian Qingyun’s lower lip quivered, but he was at a loss for what to say. He was damned that his son knew him so well. “That’s right, I was planning to do that in the beginning, but I didn’t. I told Xiao Xue to destroy the documents. You can ask Xie if you don’t believe me.” Nian Qingyun looked over at Xie.

“I don’t need to ask Xie.” Nian Junting’s expression was grim. “You are really looking out for me, aren’t you? You should have given me the documents when you got them in the first place. You knew I’d be much slower than you. All this wouldn’t have happened if you had given them to me.”

“Don’t be too impudent. You didn’t put in a single good word for me when your mother divorced me,” Nian Qingyun refuted.

“You deserved it!” Nian Junting was shaking all over. “I wanted to ask you anyway, if you really cared about my mother, why did you let Jiang Qifei into your office when she came to visit you? What are you doing? Did you take pity on her, or were you planning to rekindle your old love now that you have divorced my mother?”

“Don’t be ridiculous. It was all because of Leng Shuangwei’s injury. Do you know how guilty I feel about the fact that she can never be a mother? I wanted to talk to Jiang Qifei about the arranged marriage.” Nian Qingyun supported his heavy head. “You should blame Jiang Qifei for what happened. Leave me alone.”

“I won’t leave you alone. Why are you all layered up and wearing a helmet?” Nian Junting kicked the stool in front of him forcefully. “You knew that you were going to get beat up?”

Nian Qingyun pointed at him, shaking his finger. “You will be punished by the heavens for hitting your father!”
