I sold grilled fish in the 70s!

My child, can you tell me why you insist on marrying Mu Long? There are many good men in the world besides Mu Long! He hasn't fully told you that he's already married to another woman and has two daughters with her. Don't you think he's untrustworthy?

Didn't your father tell you the importance of honesty when you were very young? We must be honest as human beings! We business people must be even more honest! If a person is full of lies all day long, then even if that person tells the truth later, no one will believe him anymore.

Because of you, Father, I experienced the fatherly love that I could never have received from you growing up. Do you know? Every stormy night, no matter how far away Mulong is, he always appears by my side the moment he sees me. He holds me in his arms, gently pats me, and lulls me to sleep.

He knows I like candied hawthorn berries, so every time he visits me he brings me two skewers to satisfy my craving. He knows that if I eat too many candied hawthorn berries, I'll get pimples from the heat.

But have you ever thought about why Mu Long is so good to you? And if he truly loves you, why did he marry another woman back then? Have you calmly thought about these questions about the child?

Haha! Father, didn't you always tell me how much you loved my mother? And didn't you also refuse to marry my mother into the Xia family with a grand wedding procession?

Little girl, didn't your father tell you not to mention this? Why are you bringing it up again today to shut your father up?

Haha! Because Father, you always tell me that you had your reasons for not being able to marry my mother into the Xia family back then. So what if I told you that the reason Mu Long married another woman into the Yang family back then was because he wanted to repay his elder brother for raising him?

Upon hearing Xia Rong's words, Emperor Xia frowned. He knew a little about the fact that young Mu Long had been raised by his elder brother, as he was preoccupied with Xia Rong's safety at the time and hadn't had the time or energy to focus on other matters.

Father, you were so angry you couldn't speak after hearing what I said, weren't you? You never imagined that your most beloved daughter would one day speak up for another man in front of you, did you?

After hearing Xia Rong's questions, Emperor Xia felt a mouthful of blood rise from his stomach. However, in order not to frighten his beloved daughter, he swallowed the blood back down.

The observant Xia Rong noticed her father's unusual behavior and stopped communicating with him. She went to check on him that morning.

Why did my good child stop talking again? Do you think it's a bit inappropriate for you to talk about your father like that?

I remember you wouldn't treat your younger brother like this before. Have you been corrupted by that Mu Long? After observing him for a while, I feel that he has many bad habits.

Haha, everyone has flaws, it's just that sometimes I don't like to show my playful side in front of you! You always look so strict when you appear in front of me.

So I always bow to you, afraid of doing something wrong and upsetting you. I really don't know why you're always so strict with me.

But I can be my true self in front of Mu Long. We're kindred spirits, because he too lacked the fatherly love he craved when he was young.

He always tried his best to prove himself to his father in his own way. So he persevered under all the pressure and founded Shenglong Street, a famous street.
