Chapter 906 - 947: Revealing the Truth
"Honey... why are you... back?" Li Yifei swallowed hard, feeling utterly miserable. He couldn’t believe he hadn’t recognized Xu Yingying’s footsteps, and to have blurted out such words, he really was plagued by bad luck.
Xu Yingying, however, was staring at Li Yifei with an unpleasant expression, saying, "Yeah, I’m back, great, another daughter has been added."
"This... Honey, I..." Li Yifei tried to explain at this point, but felt that any explanation would seem feeble and unnecessary, as the matter itself was the truth, and there would be no point in further clarification—the lie was bound to come out someday.
Besides, this was his daughter; Li Yifei couldn’t shirk this responsibility. He couldn’t, just for the sake of Xu Yingying, disregard his own child. That wasn’t his character, nor his style.
With a determined heart, Li Yifei gritted his teeth, faced Xu Yingying’s gaze, and said firmly, "Honey, yes, this is the child Ye Yunzhu and I have together."
Even though today Xu Yingying was supposed to genuinely accept him as her husband, bringing up this issue might very well sadden her, but Li Yifei still spoke up. He didn’t want to keep going like this—firstly, because it was too exhausting, and secondly, because keeping it a secret was utterly unfair to the others, especially to his own daughter.
He waited for Xu Yingying to explode in anger—an outburst was inevitable, and Li Yifei was prepared to face it today.
Xu Yingying’s face had also turned exceptionally ugly as she stared at Li Yifei, lips quivering.
"Honey! You might as well scold me; I know it was wrong to hide it from you, but I won’t let the child suffer. I can’t let her be fatherless."
"Pfft!" At this moment, Xu Yingying unexpectedly burst into laughter, then continued to laugh radiantly, giggling and resting her hand on Li Yifei’s shoulder.
