Chapter 439 Yan Wo’s Revenge

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Yan Wo was sucking on his milk for a while and felt that Mummy was getting more and more preoccupied, so he started to become increasingly unhappy.

He looked up and saw that Daddy was kissing Mummy, so he pouted unhappily and suddenly cried loudly.

Changqing and Song Chuyi were flustered all of a sudden but no matter how much they coaxed him, he refused to stop. What they didn’t know was that Yan Wo thought his feeding place was about to be taken by Daddy, so he felt devastated. It was as though his rice-bowl was about to be snatched.

Hence, when Song Chuyi was bathing Yan Wo that night, he took the chance to poop on Song Chuyi’s hand, making the clean freak Song Chuyi feel uncomfortable the entire night.

——————————

The next morning, after finishing his work at Li Hall, Li Shaobin took a plane to Ruan Yang’s old residence. He traveled for a very long time before finally finding Ruan Yang’s house in the evening.

When he knocked, no one opened the door. He stuck his ear to the door and could actually hear the television. They probably thought he was a salesperson so they refused to open the door.

It didn’t matter if they didn’t open the door. He would sit at the door to wait for them.

Ruan Po was about to go out for a walk after dinner at around 7 pm and Li Shaobin stood up quickly the moment the door opened. “Uncle, you and Ruan Yang really look similar. You must be Ruan Yang’s dad.”

“You… what do you want?” Ruan Po looked at him cautiously and thought he must be some paparazzi. “You’re mistaken.”

“Uncle, don’t misunderstand. I’m Ruan Yang’s boyfriend.” Li Shaobin was sure that this address wasn’t wrong. “I came here to look for you and Auntie for Ruan Yang’s sake.”

Zhang Shulin was stunned and was still in disbelief. “You must be some reporter trying to get something out of me. Let me tell you—I won’t say anything.”

“Aiya, if you don’t believe me, I can show you a picture of me and Ruan Yang.” Li Shaobin quickly showed them a photo that he took secretly while watching TV programs with Ruan Yang at their apartment.

Ruan Po’s gaze turned weird. He didn’t know that Ruan Yang had such a boyfriend. Wasn’t it Xin Ziao? It wasn’t that he wanted to blame his daughter, but the entertainment industry was too messy so his gaze became unfriendly towards Li Shaobin too. “Since you’re Ruan Yang’s boyfriend, go and look for her. Why are you here?”

“Uncle, you’ve misunderstood.” Li Shaobin licked his dry lips and said sincerely, “Actually, I haven’t been with Ruan Yang for a very long time, but I really like her a lot. I know that she’s always wished for you to forgive her. Even if it’s just a call to her during the Spring Festival. I came with the intention to seek your forgiveness on Ruan Yang’s behalf. I’m doing this actually to surprise her and to make her happy. After all, it’s about to be the New Year and she’s rather lonely, all alone on the outside.”

Ruan Po pulled a face. “If you want to curry her favor, don’t come here. Let me tell you—in the past, there was this guy called Xin Ziao who came to look for her. He was very sincere and I thought he was a good man. In the end, he even had a fiance. Leave quickly. She’s no longer a daughter of mine…”

“Uncle, I know Xin Ziao too. I really hate him. He hurt and deceived Ruan Yang,” Li Shaobin said righteously. “Don’t compare me with him. I’ve already told my family about my relationship with Ruan Yang and my family is very supportive.”

“Whether your family agrees or not is also none of my business. In any case, she’s no longer my daughter.” Ruan Po walked towards the elevator with a long face.

Li Shaobin was also a little angry. “Uncle, I heard that you’re a professor, right?”

“So what?” Ruan Po turned back.

Li Shaobin said, “That’s true, professors are always very inflexible. Just because your daughter shot a naked scene in a film, and just because the people outside said your daughter has become a mistress, you find it embarrassing and refuse to acknowledge your daughter. Haven’t you thought about how tough it must’ve been for your daughter in the entertainment industry? Do you think she wanted to become a mistress? She was deceived. She didn’t know about it. No matter how many grievances she’s suffered or how tough it is for her, she’s always had to bear things alone. What do people say home is? Isn’t a home supposed to be a safe haven? No matter what mistakes your daughter has made, she’s still your daughter. As parents, can’t you think about anything other than obtaining pride and satisfying your vanity from her?”

Ruan Po was furious. “You know nothing. How is it your turn to criticize me? You’re just a young and ignorant chap. I’ve spent a lot of time and effort to groom and raise her. Do you have a child? Do you know how difficult it is to raise a child? It requires money and effort.”

“But Ruan Yang also repaid you very soon after earning money, didn’t she? She bought a new house for you and got you a new car.” Li Shaobin scoffed. “It’s true that I don’t have a child, but I think the only good reasons for a father to not acknowledge his daughter are because she’s not filial or because she disrespects her parents, not because she brought you embarrassment or let you down. Which daughter hasn’t disappointed her parents in this day and age? Don’t talk about children. Sometimes, parents also disappoint their children too, right? Uncle, I heard from Ruan Yang that you’ve also done things to betray this family too. Ruan Yang knew it and endured it for this family. But do you think she wasn’t disappointed or embarrassed by this father who betrayed her mother? Did she ever say that she wouldn’t acknowledge you as her father?”

He hit Ruan Po’s soft spot and made him turn pale with anger. “Shut up. I’m the father and she’s the daughter. A daughter can never disrespect her father; otherwise, she’ll be struck by lightning.”

“And there’s a saying ‘even a vicious tiger wouldn’t eat its cub’,” Li Shaobin said lightly. “To think you’re even a professor. Did the books say a professor can cheat? In my opinion, so what if Ruan Yang really was a third party? Anyone can scold her but you. You were the one who gave her a father who cheated. You didn’t set the right example for her, so you don’t have the right to reprimand your own daughter.”

“You… you… you, get lost.” Ruan Po was so furious that he was at a loss for words. “We don’t welcome you here.”

“People always say that professors are generous and open to other opinions. Do you only listen to nice words?” Li Shaobin sat on the stairs lazily. “In any case, I’ve made up my mind. If you don’t forgive Ruan Yang, I won’t leave.”

“Why are you so shameless?” Ruan Po scolded.

“It’s alright to be a little shameless for the person I like,” Li Shaobin said nonchalantly.

“Fine. I’ll see how long you can wait.” Because of this saga, Ruan Po was in no mood to take a walk. He returned home and shut the door loudly behind him.

…

At around 11 pm, Zhang Shulin put the garbage outside the door and when she saw Li Shaobin still sitting there, she frowned. “Young fellow, go back quickly and cut it out. This is our family matter.”

“When I marry Ruan Yang, it will concern me too.” One look at her face and Li Shaobin could tell that she was Ruan Yang’s mom. “I’m willing to do anything to make Ruan Yang happy.”

Zhang Shulin sighed. “You know about what happened to Ruan Yang…”

“So what if I know? I understand Ruan Yang and I know what kind of person she is,” Li Shaobin said. “Her friends can misunderstand her, and her parents can misunderstand her, but I won’t.”

Zhang Shulin shook her head and returned to the house.

…

The next day, when Ruan Po was going to work, he saw Li Shaobin leaning by the door, asleep, with his hands crossed tightly in front of his chest. He frowned and turned to leave.

Li Shaobin woke up, bought a bun and porridge nearby, and returned to wait by the door again.

After a day and night, it was inevitable that their neighbors would start noticing.

Ruan Po came back after class at night and saw that Li Shaobin was still around. He snorted loudly. “I’ll see how many days you can wait.”

Li Shaobin refused to give in and spent another night at the door again.

When Hu Zhi came over to send him food and saw him curled up at the stairwell, Hu Zhi felt his heart turning sour. “Boss, if your parents were to see you like this, they would be driven to their graves. I think you should just go back. These two are just stone-hearted. If you want to touch Miss Ruan, you don’t have to use this method. I can take a few photos of you and send them to her. I guarantee that would touch her.”

“Enough; that’s so hypocritical. Ruan Yang wouldn’t believe it.” Li Shaobin waved his hand. “Besides, I’m not here to put on a show. I’m here to make Ruan Yang happy.”

“Aiyo, if I were Miss Ruan, I would definitely be so touched that I would perform a transgender operation and marry you,” Hu Zhi said.

“Scram.” Li Shaobin kicked him with disdain.

After Hu Zhi left, Li Shaobin leaned against the wall and fell asleep again.

…

The next morning, when Ruan Po saw that he was still there, his gaze changed. “Say, it’s the middle of winter. Don’t you feel awful waiting out here every day?”

“This is nothing,” Li Shaobin said without a care. “Back when I was in the army, I had to stand and keep watch in the mountains even when the temperature was below freezing. Now, I even have a roof over my head. Besides, I was in the north back then while now I’m in the south where it’s warmer. This is nothing.”

Ruan Po said with mixed emotions, “You’ve even joined the army?”

“Of course,” Li Shaobin said. “I was very disobedient in the past, so my parents threw me into the army.”

Ruan Po sighed. “How is Ruan Yang deserving of you doing this for her?”

“I can’t really say for sure, but I like her. She’s not fake or hypocritical,” Li Shaobin said thoughtfully. “In any case, everyone has their bad points. So do I. You can’t say that just because someone has made a mistake or has a bad trait that she doesn’t deserve to be liked.”

Ruan Po shook his head. He had no idea what kind of luck his daughter had in her previous life to deserve a man like this.
