Chapter 102 - You Look Like You’ve Seen A Ghost (2)

An entertainment agency? Liu Shulan was surprised to hear that.

So it turned out that this young woman truly came from a well-off family. It should be obvious by how she presents herself anyway.

"Really? That\'s surprising to hear." She looked at her husband and smiled awkwardly at Su Xiaofei.

"I know, right?" Su Xiaofei sighed dejectedly. "But unlike Xiao Feng, I\'m not smart enough to succeed my mother in her company, so I would need to exert more effort in the future to prove myself worthy of becoming her successor."

"I\'m sure your mother would be happy knowing that you\'ve tried your best." Qiao Fengying commented. "For parents like us, we are naturally biased towards our children. Even if the world thinks our children aren\'t that great, in our eyes, they are the best the moment they were born."

"Ah, no wonder Xiao Han thinks so highly of you, President Qiao. You really know how to spoil your son."

Qiao Fengying was the one to sigh this time. He couldn\'t help but think of his daughter whom he had never gotten a chance to see or to hold.

"I would have done the same thing if she\'s alive and with me." He muttered next to his wife, who was looking at him with a sad expression on her face.

"Pardon?" Su Xiaofei blinked, pretending not to hear what he had just said. She was practically seated across Qiao Fengying and she was sure that even Lu Qingfeng was able to hear what the man had just uttered in a low voice.

Her heart thumping in her chest as she heard the words Qiao Fengying had said just now. So it turned out that this man truly spent the past eighteen years looking for her, but he\'d failed in her past life.

Growing up, Su Xiaofei never had a father-figure she could look up to. Su Haoran might have legally adopted her as his and Yun Qingrong\'s daughter, but he\'d been mostly absent all through her life, not present at any of the important milestones of her childhood.

Her chest felt a sharp pain. What was happening to her? Why did she feel like she was about to burst into tears knowing that she was actually wanted by her own father?

It was just too bad that Qiao Fengying had totally lost his chance to become a good father to her. The years of separation wouldn\'t change anything.

Her birth mother despised her very existence, while her birth father had died with a lonely heart in her past life. Would her life be happier if she had grown up with Qiao Fengying by her side? Would she turn out the way she was today if he was with her throughout her life?

No… Su Xiaofei pushed these thoughts aside. She knew that thinking of \'what-ifs\' was useless now, and she could only move forward. She shouldn\'t have agreed to meet Qiao Fengying tonight, but nothing could be done now.

"Oh, nothing, Miss Su. I was just telling my wife something." Qiao Fengying reasoned out, chiding himself inwardly for his unintentional slip of the tongue in front of her.

However, as he looked at Su Xiaofei\'s face, he wondered if his daughter would be around the same age as her if she was alive somewhere. Bai Qingyue insisted that she had given birth to a stillbirth child, but according to the attending physician who tended her during her labour, the baby girl was alive and well.

Bai Qingyue refused to tell him where she brought their baby, so Qiao Fengying had to look around, checking all the orphanages near the hospital where her old lover had given birth to their child, hoping that he would be able to find her.

Alas, almost eighteen years had passed and not a single clue of her whereabouts could be found. His mind was telling him to give up and accept that his daughter might already be dead, but his heart refused to accept such a possibility.

His daughter must be alive somewhere. He had visited every orphanage and foster home he could find, hoping that he would be able to find her, but his efforts were futile. If she was already adopted, it would be hard for him to locate her, since the law dictated that the privacy of the parties involved in the adoption was guaranteed. He didn\'t even have a picture that he could use to identify her.

Qiao Fengying believed that she was still alive and refused to believe that she was already dead. It didn\'t matter if he couldn\'t be part of her life anymore, as long as he knew that she was safe and happy with her new life. He would be satisfied to see her from a distance.

Su Xiaofei had no idea that her birth father was harboring such thoughts. She excused herself to use the washroom, ignoring the way Lu Qingfeng was looking at her worriedly. He must have sensed her distress, but Su Xiaofei didn\'t know how to explain the situation to him.

She hadn\'t told anyone except for Yun Qingrong that she was aware of her being adopted by her parents. And now that she was facing her biological father, her emotions were all over the place, threatening to burst at any moment.

Su Xiaofei entered the washroom and locked the door behind her. She allowed her tears to spill and covered her face with both hands, thinking of how awful her fate was in her past life. If she hadn\'t met Qiao Yuhan this early in her current life, then she wouldn\'t have had the chance to meet her father at all.

So it turned out that not only was she reborned to rectify her mistakes, it was also meant for her to meet people she wasn\'t able to in the past.

She allowed herself to weep in silence before deciding to wash her face at the sink once she was certain that she was calm enough to face her father.
