Lin Momo glanced at Ye Lingtian, but she couldn't say much. What if this guy wasn't discreet? Tomorrow, she might become public enemy number one!
"That's right, Mom. Let's talk about this another day."
Suddenly, Ye Lingtian's phone rang. Because his ringtone was particularly loud, the moment it rang, the entire living room fell silent. Ye Lingtian smiled and bowed slightly, saying, "Excuse me, I'll take a call."
"Hello? I found it! It shouldn't be a problem... Yeah yeah... I know... Okay, I'm at their place... That's all for now."
Ye Lingtian hung up the phone with a careless wave, his face breaking into a smile as he turned to Lin Momo. "Momo, Daddy's been looking for you all along. You have to believe me, and now I also have my own business. It would be great if you came back to help Dad manage it. Then you wouldn't have to work so hard every day." He paused, his tone turning hopeful. "What do you think, is Dad right?"
Ye Lingtian, you're really something! What's this? Your scheme of feigning weakness didn't work, so now you're resorting to bribery? You still don't understand Lin Momo. She's not the kind of woman who cares about money.
Lin Momomo was also furious. To actually try and bribe her with money! Lin Momomo thought this was an insult to her!
What? Do you think I need your money? It's fine that I work hard for others, I enjoy it. What business is it of yours? Besides, if I really wanted to be rich, I'd have seduced Gu Yihang long ago. He's ten times richer than you!
"Dad? I don't have a father like you. Tell me, how did I get lost in the first place?" Lin Momo's voice was dripping with sarcasm, she didn't care about manners anymore, and shouted at Ye Lingtian.
“You…you, you were just playing around at the time, and then, and then you got lost. I couldn't find you no matter how hard I looked. You don't know how worried I was back then…” Ye Lingtian started stuttering at first, but then he found his footing and began to speak vividly.
However, before Ye Lingtian could finish his speech, Lin Momo interrupted him: “Am I a playful child? How did you come up with such a pompous reason? You can ask my mother what I was like as a child. I was afraid of strangers from a young age. Even saying hello to a stranger would scare me! You say it’s because I was playing around that I got lost, don't you think that's ridiculous? Besides, as a father, shouldn't you have been taking care of your own daughter when we went out together? You have the nerve to say you looked for me so hard. What are you thinking?!”
Ye Lingtian's face turned extremely ugly when he was told this by Lin Momo. He was so angry that his body trembled involuntarily, and he pointed at Lin Momo and shouted loudly.
“Lin Momo, you're being unreasonable! To be honest, I was very guilty about losing you back then, but there was nothing I could do. You can believe it or not. Besides, the reason I came to find you today is because your younger brother now has leukemia and needs a bone marrow transplant. He's only sixteen years old. Are you going to stand by and watch him die young? Will you just ignore him?! I've said everything I needed to say. This is the situation. What you do next depends on whether or not you have a heart.”
Lin Momo's heart skipped a beat. Me, I have a younger brother? And he has leukemia!
Suddenly, the living room fell silent, with only the faint sound of a few people's breathing.
Ye Lingtian saw that Lin Momo stopped speaking, and his attitude softened. After all, saving his son was the real thing. You see, he only had this one son.
"Mo Mo, I admit that what happened back then was my fault. I'm apologizing to you here, but even if you don't want to acknowledge me as your father, you should think about your unfortunate younger brother. He's only sixteen years old. Can you really bear to watch him die?"
Lin MoMo's mind was in a mess right now, she felt lost and unsure what to do. Facing such a father, she wouldn't hesitate at all. But she also had a younger brother. If her brother died because of her, how could she live with herself?
