Xi Mushan put his empty gla.s.s down when Xi Xiaye asked him the question. He looked at Xi Xiaye and nodded. “Kind of. It’s similar to the Xi family and the Han family. They are both big families in City Z.”

Xi Xiate poured more wine for Xi Mushan while he went on.

When she was reminded about what Shen Yue had told her, Xi Xiaye thought that Xi Mushan might know a bit more, so she asked straightforwardly, “I heard that Qikai had some **** background before, and they cleansed their name afterward. Is the current Qikai the product after their cleansing?”

Xi Mushan’s face was strained for a moment when he heard Xi Xiaye’s question. He drank from the gla.s.s again before replying, “That’s true, but it’s been decades. Back then, **** was popular, but afterward, the government became strict with the law. Consequently, companies like Qikai were found out, but of course, the government could not get rid of all of them, so Qikai survived.”

Xi Mushan paused, then went on, “Your grandfather was involved in this case back then. He was the head of the Inspection Department. All these years, Qikai had been working with Yueying. I’m not really sure about what’s going on with the Qi family, but your grandfather should know more.”

Xi Xiaye nodded. “Got it.”

“Now that Glory World is challenging Qikai, aren’t you guys confident?” Xi Mushan asked quietly, “The tender should be on the day after tomorrow. You guys don’t have to be that nervous.”

Xi Xiaye took a deep breath. “I’ve done what I could, and I did my best, so I’ll let him handle the rest.”

Xi Xiaye sipped some wine and asked. “Father, have you heard about the car accident involving the Qi family’s eldest son, Qi Feng, that happened five years ago? I heard the current Master Qi is actually the second son of the Qi family…”

“The second son of the Qi family?”

Xi Mushan repeated the name and squinted his eyes. He swigged a bit of wine as a faint light flashed in his eyes. “Qi Feng… I’ve seen him before. Although he’s Qi Qiming’s illegitimate son, he held great importance in the Qi family, even higher than the current Qi Lei.”

“Even higher than Qi Lei? Then, why didn’t Qi Qiming marry Qi Feng’s mother?” Xi Xiaye was puzzled.

“I’m not so sure about that. I only know that Qi Qiming treated Qi Feng very well. Some years ago, he had already decided to let Qi Feng take over Qikai. I heard Qi Feng was heavily injured after the accident, then I never heard about him anymore. I think he didn’t make it.”

Xi Xiaye did not ask any further questions. She downed her gla.s.s and looked at Xi Mushan opposite her, her hands clenched into fists as she placed them on her legs. She was struggling about whether she should say something.

Xi Mushan noticed that she was troubled and seemed to want to say something, but was holding herself back. “What’s wrong? Speak if you have something to say. Don’t keep it in.”

Xi Xiaye took a deep breath and looked at Xi Mushan quietly. “Father, is it… really impossible for you and Mother to go back to before? I don’t understand. You still love Mother, and Mother loves you too. How did this happen? Every time I see Mother’s lonely expression, I…”

“She told you that she still loves me?”

Xi Mushan’s grip around the gla.s.s tightened whilst a light flickered in his dark eyes as he stared at Xi Xiaye. She looked at him quietly, having caught the hope in his eyes that was slowly reviving.

After some time, Xi Xiaye nodded. “Mother wouldn’t have stayed like this for so many years. Otherwise, she was just over 30 when she divorced you, and so many people were after her. Grandpa also introduced her to many successful entrepreneurs. They were all excellent, yet Mother’s heart never moved. I think she’s still hopeful.”

Was she still feeling hopeful?

Xi Mushan’s expression changed as he gripped his gla.s.s tightly and emptied it. He closed his eyes to calm himself down.

“I’ve betrayed her and you… I’ve made my mistake, Xiaye… I won’t deny it, but your mother is the only woman that I’ve ever loved in my life. I’ve spent my past twenty or so years in loneliness to punish myself and in the end…

“Throughout all these years, I’ve thought of blaming you, but Mother always told me that the marriage failed because both you and she didn’t know how to keep the relations.h.i.+p going. She hoped I wouldn’t blame you or the Xi family. Now that I think about it, no one loved you as much as Mother, if Mother insisted years ago, like how Yue Lingsi and Xi Xinyi did now, what would’ve happened to you?”

“Mother has sacrificed so much that she’s almost left with nothing. Why can’t you put yourself in her shoe? Xi Xinyi has the Xi family and the Han family. Even Yueying is theirs, but Mother has nothing, she never mentioned anything about it, and now you’re telling me that you only love Mother…F Father, just what is showing your love for her? If you love her, shouldn’t you treat her well, give her everything, and satisfy all her needs while protecting her by her side?”

Xi Xiaye felt a pang of pain in her chest as a lump formed in her throat, and her eyes were starting to tear up. She sniffed as she lowered her head, her long hair falling over her shoulders and covering her beautiful face. Her voice was starting to get hoa.r.s.e. “If that’s how it is… Father, your love is worthless. You’re not worthy of my mother…”

“Xiaye!”

Her words made Xi Mushan’s face go pale as he was stunned!

Xi Xiaye took a deep breath, blinking her eyes before raising her head. “That’s all I’ve wanted to tell you. The next move is all up to you. I don’t think I’ll be eating with you today, so I’ll head back no. You don’t have to send me.”

She felt relieved after saying those words. However, she did not want to stay any longer, so she stood up slowly and was about to leave.
