209 Chapter 209 disappointment and Xia Weiyang's anger

"Xia Weiyang." Suddenly, Xia Zhixiu stood in front of Xia Weiyang. "How have you been?" As he spoke, Xia Zhixiu's eyes were full of concern as he looked at Xia Weiyang.

When she met Xia Zhixiu's gaze, Xia Weiyang's heart ached. He was a caring and kind father to her. However, he was afraid of his wife.

"I'm doing very well. How about you?" Initially, Xia Weiyang didn't want to ask how her father was doing. However, she wasn't able to control herself from asking.

"Daddy's doing well too," Xia Zhixiu said as he glanced at the people walking around. "This isn't the right place to talk. Xia Weiyang, do you have time to talk to your father?"

Seeing Xia Zhixiu's expectant gaze, Xia Weiyang hesitated for a moment before nodding her head in agreement.

The two of them found a quiet place in the park. They sat on a bench under a tree.

Xia Zhixiu turned to look at Xia Weiyang. He opened his mouth, but he hesitated.

"What do you want to say?" Xia Weiyang frowned. She felt that bumping into him that day was no accident. It seemed he was purposely looking for her.

Xia Weiyang thought it might be the perfect opportunity to ask her father about her real mother.

"Xia Weiyang, just let your sister go," Xia Zhixiu suddenly said.

Xia Weiyang was slightly startled after hearing her father's words.

She looked at Xia Zhixiu in disbelief. The corners of her mouth twitched. "Let Xia Ningyan go? What do you mean by that? It seems like she's always been against me. She should be the one to let go."

Xia Weiyang felt deeply disappointed at what Xia Zhixiu said.

She thought he cared about her. However, it seemed she was wrong.

Xia Weiyang smiled uncomfortably.

After gathering his thoughts, Xia Zhixiu opened his mouth again. "I know that Xia Ningyan has always been against you. However, she really likes young master Shi Jue. Xia Weiyang, I know that you're a good girl. Since you don't like the young master, just let your sister have him."

Xia Weiyang felt her heart drop from her chest.

She didn't know what to say to her father.

She did not expect that Xia Zhixiu would say those things to her.

Xia Weiyang felt that her father still treated her as an outsider.

"Xia Weiyang, I promise that if you do this for me, I will persuade Xia Ningyan not to target you anymore."

Xia Weiyang looked at Xia Zhixiu with sadness in her eyes.

'A promise?' Xia Weiyang thought to herself.

Xia Zhixiu had promised a lot of things to Xia Weiyang when she was still young. However, none of those promises came true because of Xia Ningyan.

"Also, about the issue on the Internet, the people posting comments misunderstood your sister. They said terrible things about her. They called her a shameless mistress. Xia Weiyang, please help your sister by proving that she's a good person..."

Xia Weiyang suddenly stood up and glared at Xia Zhixiu. She could no longer stand listening to his words.

Because of her anger, she started to breathe heavily. Her eyes were filled with disdain. She could not believe what her father said.

"Xia Weiyang..." Xia Zhixiu was shocked by her actions.

"Enough!" Xia Weiyang interrupted Xia Zhixiu and roared angrily.

"Do you know what you're saying? You're asking me to help Xia Ningyan. Why would I come forward and prove her innocence? What about me? Who will prove my innocence?"

"Do you even know that Xia Ningyan was the one who started the issues on the Internet? She was the one who targeted me and created all those rumors. Do you know how Xia Ningyan's actions affected me?"
