Chapter 142 - 139: Murderous Intent After the Warmth
Ye Fan and Zhang Lu found a secluded corner in the courtyard to keep watch on what was happening inside the house.
They couldn’t think of a reason to refuse Qin’s father’s request, so they agreed.
Inside the house, Qin’s father took his daughter to wash up, and under his care, Qin Xue transformed into a beautiful lady.
Then, he pulled his daughter to sit on the sofa, feeding her cake.
There had always been strawberry-flavored cakes at home. Since his daughter disappeared, Qin’s father bought some every day to eat alone. It was partly to comfort himself and partly out of a futile hope that maybe one day his daughter would come home.
This day had finally come, bitter grief flooded Qin’s father’s heart, yet a smile played on his face.
"Xuexue, eat more." Qin’s father fed his daughter cake.
"Daddy, you eat too." Qin Xue also fed her father. She was completely like a little girl, except she had grown into a young woman. Her expressions and voice had no trace of anything other than childlike simplicity.
Qin Xue was very happy, with cream still on the corners of her mouth. She continued chomping hungrily, savoring her favorite cake, completely forgetting her assassin identity, her memory stuck before the incident.
"Is it delicious?" Qin’s father asked with a loving smile.
