Shi Nuan picked up her chopsticks and quietly ate, only picking some celery and braised eggplant, not touching anything else.
Shi Yuanbo said, "What’s wrong? Eating with your own father, why so reserved?"
As he spoke, he was about to use the serving chopsticks to give Shi Nuan some braised chicken wings. Shi Nuan quickly said, "No need..."
And added, "I’ve recently become vegetarian!"
"..." Shi Yuanbo paused, as if he didn’t understand, "Why become vegetarian out of the blue?"
Shi Nuan lowered her head, her long and thick eyelashes covered all the emotions in her eyes, and said, "I’m observing mourning for Xiao Chuan!"
Shi Yuanbo’s eyebrows furrowed suddenly, "What did you say?"
It was then Shi Nuan raised her head, her dark eyes directly meeting Shi Yuanbo’s as she said again, "I said, I’m observing mourning for Xiao Chuan!"
Shi Yuanbo sat there, his face somewhat unsightly.
Although Shi Nuan was engaged to Song Yichuan, she hadn’t officially married him, so by rules and customs, it wasn’t her place to observe mourning for him!
Moreover, for her to observe mourning for Xiao Chuan, did Song Yansheng not oppose this at all? That man, he really has a big heart!
Taking a silent breath, Shi Yuan suppressed all his emotions in his heart and said, "Since that’s the case, why didn’t you tell me earlier? I could have been more considerate when ordering..."
Last time he went to the Shi Family, it was always Song Yansheng who picked dishes for Shi Nuan. Shi Yuanbo hadn’t noticed that Shi Nuan only ate vegetarian dishes...
As a father, he indeed wasn’t qualified enough...
Shi Nuan shook her head, "There’s no need, this is already enough... but if Father doesn’t mind these meat dishes, you could pack them up to take home, such a waste otherwise!"
Shi Yuanbo pressed his lips, saying, "Nuannuan, all these years, have you always resented Dad?"
Shi Nuan paused her action of picking celery, looked at Shi Yuanbo again, her expression was calm, but those deep dark eyes were bright and piercing. fr\eewe.bn(o)v\el.c(o)m
She asked back, "Does Father think I shouldn’t resent you?"
"..." Shi Yuanbo paused for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "I should, I know, I’m not a qualified father..."
"No..." Shi Nuan shook her head and said faintly, "You just aren’t a qualified father to me!"
To Shi Jiaojiao and Shi Tianchao, he was indeed more than qualified!
Shi Yuanbo’s complexion turned pale as he said, "Nuannuan, Dad was wrong, in the future... Dad will try to make it up to you..."
"How will you make it up?" Shi Nuan tugged slightly at the corner of her mouth and said, "Can Dad give me the Shi Family company?"
Shi Yuanbo was stunned, somewhat in disbelief, "Nuannuan, you want the Shi Family company..."
After speaking, he thought of something, "Is it Song Yansheng... is it Song Yansheng who encouraged you..."
Shi Nuan speculated that Song Yansheng probably said something to her father; otherwise, he wouldn’t have come to her.
Somewhat amusing, but after all these years, she had gotten used to it.
She lightly shook her head and said, "Dad, it’s not that I want the Shi Family company, but besides it, you have nothing else that’s worth me wanting..."
She always thought that after her mother left, at least she still had a father to rely on, but what did her father give her?
Nothing but disappointment, nothing at all, nothing at all...
For ten whole years, the warmth and support he gave her couldn’t even compare to what Song Yansheng provided in just one short month...
Song Yansheng was merely an unrelated stranger, while he, was her biological father!
