After thinking for a long time, Ru Feng asked, “Dad, does Qiu Yi listen to you?”
Si Tu Jin smiled proudly. “I told her that if I don’t like her, she’ll never enter my home. Now that she’s helping me buy some time, I’m very grateful.”
If Ying Feng gets angry later, I’ll tell him I forced her.”
“Does Qiu Yi like my eldest brother?” Ru Feng finally understood.
Si Tu Jin looked down at her, “My daughter is truly smart.”
Ru Feng suppressed the urge to roll her eyes, “Dad, can you stop always saying that? Only your daughter is the best in the world.” Her father always thought she was the best, and everything she did was right.
Si Tu Jin pulled her up, “Of course, my Si Tu Jin’s daughter is unparalleled.”
Ru Feng burst out laughing, and the overwhelming sadness slowly receded under this warm comfort.
Si Tu Jin felt incredibly nostalgic looking at her bright smile, reminiscent of memories of his little daughter.
He couldn’t help but hug her tightly, “Feng’er, I’m glad you’re still here.” Even in another body, this soul was still his daughter.
“Dad!” Ru Feng’s eyes became slightly moist.
Si Tu Jin gently wiped her tears, saying, “Feng’er, you should know that in my heart, you are my only child.”
Ru Feng looked up at him, noting the faint signs of aging at his hairline, understanding the pain her parents had endured—her eldest brother and sister’s background and the dark path her mother and second brother had walked had caused her father pain time and again.
Si Tu Jin, seemingly limitless in glory and wealth, was the talented heir of the Si Tu family. However, few knew of his struggles and the burdens he bore.
Ru Feng gently leaned against him, saying, “Dad, Feng’er knows everything.” She added, “I will care for and love Qiu Ru Feng’s mother because she gave me this healthy body. We owe her. Thank you for being so good to my brothers and sister. They will always be my family.”
Si Tu Jin hugged her tightly and said, “As long as you’re happy.” He kept his thoughts about their family dynamic to himself.
“Dad, I’ll go home. My brothers will find me eventually.”
