Two Fathers

As Xia Xibei's "real father," Qi Zhiqiang couldn't bear to cross the daughter who could bring him more benefits.

It would be great if she could truly accept him as her father.

So, he would often call Xia Xibei to connect emotionally.

However, the contents of his call left Xia Xibei speechless every time.

At first, it was to tell her that she didn't have to work so hard. That she could withdraw from the entertainment industry and come back, and that her family could make a good living for her.

Xia Xibei rejected this suggestion outright.

He said this twice more and Xia Xibei just hung up the phone, not giving him any grace.

Although he felt that Xia Xibei made him lose face, he still put up with it, because even if he wanted to play up his father's prestige, Xia Xibei simply did not buy it.

Moreover, now that he wanted to please Xia Xibei, not the other way around, the relationship was not an equal one.
