They were clearly on the same show, but Lu An actually pretended not to know her?
Qi Yan found it unbelievable. She tried her best to remain calm as she said, “I won’t stay for dinner. I came especially… to give you a birthday present.”
As Qi Yan spoke, she took out a gift from her bag.
Father Lu was stunned again. Pre, present?
She said it was a birthday present?
Father Lu’s eyes welled up with tears.
She had never given him anything in the past, let alone a birthday present!
Conversely, although those brats said that they wouldn’t e back and said that they disdained him, they would secretly buy him some wine to drink.
He would really have wanted a present from his daughter back then, but now…
Father Lu looked affectionately at his biological daughter, Lu An, and was about to refuse —
Qi Yan had already taken out the gift. “This is it. I remember that you used to love this wine brand, right? So —
“I bought it especially for you.”
As Qi Yan spoke, she handed the gift box to him, trembling with anticipation.
Father Lu couldn’t help but be stumped. So, she knew!
Lu Xiao recalled how he had deliberately drank this wine in front of her back then and praised it.
“To be honest, I actually don’t like this wine. I pretended to like it back then because you said it was good.
“Of course, you really don’t have to give me wine now. If you’re filial, give it to your current father!” I already have another daughter! She’s better than you and needs me more! I already gave whatever I could to you.
Father Lu tried his best to use a gentle expression. In the end, this was the daughter whom he had raised for more than ten years. He didn’t want to be too harsh, but that was all there was to it.
Qi Yan couldn’t help but be stumped again. She opened her mouth slightly to say something, but suddenly recalled —
“Dad, why are you drinking this wine? It’s not branded; who knows if something will happen to you if you drink it? If you want to drink wine — drink that one! That one’s better!”
When she was about eight or nine years old, she came back late from her piano lesson one day and accidentally saw him drinking alone in the living room.
He had looked very sad and a little dispirited.
She recalled the TV news had been reporting on some scumbag fathers, step-fathers, and adoptive fathers. She was worried that he would hurt himself after getting drunk, so she stepped forward to coax him.
It just so happened that a TV wine mercial came on at that time, so she casually pointed at it. So…
He actually… actually…
Qi Yan was inexplicably filled with regret and felt a little like crying. However, before she could say anything, Second Brother suddenly said, “An, didn’t you say that you bought Dad a pair of shoes?”
“Oh, I… almost forgot.
“I’ll get them!”
She had originally planned to hand them over after singing the birthday song!
Why was she suddenly cued now?
However, since Second Brother had already cued her, she went to get them.
Very quickly, Lu An brought the shoes she had bought for her father.
It was a brand new pair of high-end leather shoes, similar to the ones he was wearing, and just a little more trendy for the times.
Father Lu couldn’t wait to try them on. Worried that his feet would stink, he moved a little further away.
Father Lu quickly put on the new shoes.
