The Billionaire's Hidden Affection

Chapter 879 - 876: Perish Together 7

Zhou Ting suddenly realized that what her father was worried about was not just the secret data in Wan Donglin’s hands, but also other things that she did not know.

She felt anxious and dared not ask further.

Old Zhou suddenly asked, "Tingting, what do you think of Huang Xiaojue?"

Zhou Ting slowly replied, "I don’t think he’s sincere with me."

"Why?"

"I could tell when he risked his life to save Yan Xixi last time. His heart is still with that woman. Moreover, I arranged for his parents to move into the villa, and Huang’s mom had already decided to move, but he rushed back to stop it..."

Old Zhou’s eyebrows were raised, perhaps not expecting Huang Xiaojue to have such a move.

"Dad, this person cannot be fully trusted; we must remain cautious."

Instead, Old Zhou seemed relieved, "In that case, you should prepare to marry him as soon as possible."

Zhou Ting was stunned, but immediately understood.

"Alright, Dad, I’ll listen to you."

Seeing his daughter agree so quickly, Old Zhou instead showed a trace of unease and sighed deeply, "Tingting, to ask you to make such a big sacrifice, I really can’t bear it."

Zhou Ting secretly clenched her teeth and forced a smile, "Dad, at this point, why are you telling me this? As long as we get through this difficult period, we won’t be afraid of anything."

Indeed, the difficult period was only a little over a year left, and once next year’s results were out, everything would be settled.

The winning side would climb to great heights and win the world.

But if they lost, they would fall into a quagmire, possibly leading to ruin and imprisonment.

"Tingting, as long as we get through this, in the future, no matter what you want, Dad will agree."

Zhou Ting smiled sweetly, "Dad, you can rest assured. Nowadays, marriages and divorces are commonplace. A marriage doesn’t mean much. As long as I can help you, I’m willing to do anything."

In the hospital’s rest room, Liu Daqing finally finished his cup of tea.

Wang Yi was standing by, whispering, "Madam, should we tell Dongmei?"

Liu Daqing pondered slightly, "No, don’t tell her. Remember, don’t leak a single word."

"But, Madam, you’re so exhausted..."

Liu Daqing replied mildly, "I’m just an old woman, what is there to fear? Anyway, now they can’t threaten me with anything. Remember, you must not tell Dongmei, and don’t let Yan Xixi know either."

Wang Yi’s heart sank.

Liu Daqing was betting everything on this.

The phone rang; it was a message from Yan Xixi.

It was a joke, yet it carried a strong probing intent. Clearly, she had been seeking out Wan Donglin’s whereabouts.

Liu Daqing was secretly amazed. Yan Xixi called yesterday, clearly at the time her son was in danger — Yan Xixi wasn’t someone without tact, and since going to the United States, this was the first time she made a call midway.

What a coincidence.

Is there really such a thing as telepathic connection in this world?

The affection that girl felt for her son was far deeper than she had imagined.

At this moment, she finally realized that Yan Xixi had become a very important family member.

Liu Daqing stood up and took one more look at the securely closed ward, her expression unusually exhausted. After more than thirty years of peace, it vaguely felt like returning to the chaotic turmoil of those years.

At such a time, how could she let her daughter return to face all this?

With Wan Dongmei and Yan Xixi outside, there was still a glimmer of hope. Rushing back all at once to be caught in one sweep, what meaning would there be?
