Seriously injured in a car accident, his wife confessed her love for his "white moonlight"

While Xu Tian was still in a daze, the poisonous snakes that had surrounded the blood lotus had already scattered.

Seeing that there was no longer any threat around him, Xu Tian carefully stepped forward and uprooted the blood lotus.

At that very moment, the land he had been praising withered instantly, as if all the moisture had been drained away.

Xu Tian stared blankly at the blood lotus in his hand, then looked at the withered scene, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

It seems that this blood lotus is the nourishment that sustains the creatures along these hundreds of kilometers.

In order to save Lin Wan'er, he had no choice but to take the Blood Lotus for himself, which led to the devastation of this land.

In that instant, Xu Tian finally understood what the old man had said.

After staying in place for a while, Xu Tian, ​​with a sense of awe, carried the blood lotus down the mountain intact.

There were already people waiting at the foot of the mountain; they were sent by Lin Zhentian.

Upon seeing Xu Tian, ​​they rushed forward as if they had met their savior.

"How's it going? Did you manage to pick any?"

Xu Tian unloaded the basket, and the people surrounded him.

"This is the Blood Lotus? You picked it!"

Everyone cheered, but Xu Tian remained silent with a gloomy face.

"You look unremarkable, but I never expected you to have such extraordinary abilities!"

One of them excitedly complimented Xu Tian.

Xu Tian simply said, "Saving lives is the priority. Let's go back quickly."

The man nodded, and the other cars led the way, while he drove in the middle of the convoy with Xu Tian in his car.

Throughout the journey, Xu Tian stared blankly out the window, which puzzled the man.

"With your great abilities, President Lin will definitely give you an important position!"

"Why aren't you happy?"

Xu Tian remained silent.

The man then said, "You're so young, but I didn't expect you to be so mature and experienced."

"No matter what, you saved several of our lives. Just let me know if you need anything in the future!"

The man talked incessantly the whole way.

Nevertheless, Xu Tian remained silent, only gazing solemnly out the window.

Before long, the car arrived at the villa where Lin Zhentian lived.

The man got out and opened the car door for Xu Tian, ​​who was carrying a basket containing blood lotus flowers.

After getting off the bus, the man rubbed his hands together excitedly, "Dude, let me carry this thing in. You've gone through a lot of trouble."

Upon hearing this, Xu Tian hugged the basket tightly to his chest and looked at him with a serious expression.

The man said sheepishly, "Alright, alright, you're the great hero, you can carry me in!"

He had originally hoped to take the opportunity to claim credit and receive a reward, but it seems he won't have that chance now.

"You're back? You really picked it?"

Lin Zhentian was both surprised and delighted.

After all, he had sent out so many top experts before without success, and even though he treated Xu Tian differently, he never expected it to happen so quickly.

"Is this the one you're looking for?"

Xu Tian took the blood lotus from the basket in his hand and let the medical team examine it carefully.

The attending physician nodded in delight, "This is it, this is it!"

Lin Zhentian hurriedly said, "Then hurry up and go! If anything happens to my daughter, you'll all lose your lives!"

Upon hearing this, the attending physician immediately led the medical team to develop a serum formula.

Xu Tian maintained a blank expression throughout.

Lin Zhentian was puzzled by this.

"Don't you have anything to say? Or anything you want?"

"As long as you ask, I'll grant your request!"

But as soon as he said it, Lin Zhentian laughed self-deprecatingly.

Xu Tianke is the sole heir of the Xu Group, a force to be reckoned with both domestically and internationally, including in South Korea.

What could he possibly offer Xu Tian?

Thinking of this, Lin Zhentian changed his words and said, "No matter what, you saved Wan'er's life today, and I am very grateful to you."

Xu Tian replied calmly, "No need for thanks. I just hope that after Lin Wan'er recovers, she won't cause trouble for me or the people around me anymore."

Lin Zhentian's expression changed slightly as he carefully examined the person in front of him.

All things considered, he had spent a long time with Wan'er, so why hadn't he fallen for her? On the contrary, she seemed to dislike his daughter quite a bit.

This won't do. Lin Wan'er has already decided in her heart that Xu Tian is her true love. If he continues with this attitude, Wan'er might do something a hundred times worse than this in the future.

What kind of woman do you like?

Lin Zhentian's tone even carried a hint of ingratiation.

Xu Tian looked up at him with an expression that suggested he already knew the answer.

He already knew that Chu Lan and Lin Wan'er were half-sisters.

But so much had happened during that time that he hadn't had time to think about it.

Since both of them are Lin Zhentian's biological daughters, and Lin Zhentian clearly knows that she is currently with Chu Lan, why ask this question?

Is Lin Zhentian really a heartless and ungrateful man? Does he only care about giving birth but not about raising children?

Lin Zhentian was unsure of how to persuade Lin Wan'er to accept him, so he sat awkwardly to the side, his words and actions revealing a sense of helplessness.

Xu Tian, ​​however, was not willing to let him off the hook and continued to press him for answers.

"Chu Lan is also your daughter, and you already knew that before you came to Jiangcheng!"

This is not a question, but an interrogation.

Lin Zhentian trembled and said heavily, "You're right."

Xu Tian frowned, feeling wronged for Chu Lan.

Logically speaking, he had finally helped Chu Lan find his family, but at this moment, he wasn't so happy.

"They're both your daughters, how can you just stand by and watch Lin Wan'er bully Chu Lan?"

"Or do you never intend to acknowledge this daughter back?"

Lin Zhentian's expression was complicated. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke.

“I never intended to disown her, it’s just… the situation is complicated.”

"I didn't know Chu Lan's mother was pregnant when she left."

“I feel guilty towards her, but Wan’er… is also my precious daughter. I hope you can understand a father’s good intentions and give me a chance to make amends, so that Chu Lan and Lin Wan’er can have a day when they can be reunited as sisters.”

As he spoke, a pleading look flashed in Lin Zhentian's eyes, as if he genuinely hoped that Xu Tian could understand his predicament.

Xu Tian sneered.

While he allowed Lin Wan'er to hurt Chu Lan at will, the scales in his heart had already tipped.

Xu Tian's eyes gradually turned cold as images of Chu Lan silently enduring harm flashed through his mind.

Lin Zhentian's pleading gaze now seemed so hypocritical.

He couldn't understand at all that, during those days without her parents' company, Lin Wan'er was like a spoiled princess, indulging in her willfulness at will.

Chu Lan, the girl who always had a gentle smile, could only silently endure it, helpless yet strong.

At this moment, Lin Zhentian sat in the living room of the luxurious villa, looking glamorous and radiant, yet he turned a blind eye to all of this, letting the scales tip and allowing the kind side to suffer injustice.

Xu Tian's clenched fist trembled slightly. The anger and disappointment in his heart intertwined into an impenetrable net, almost suffocating him.

"I think letting Chu Lan know about your existence would also hurt her!"

"So you'd better not do that!"
