Chapter 257

Chen Wanning only heard from her parents that her brother was kidnapped when he was a child.

My brother's parents loved him very much, especially his mother, who treated Sheng Sinian like her treasure from then on.

Chen Wanning was very disdainful.

It's just a kidnapping, isn't it?

After that, Chen Xiuyi was extremely strict in protecting the children. Sometimes, even if Chen Wanning wanted to be kidnapped, she didn't even have the chance.

She grew up smoothly like this.

What's the big deal about being kidnapped?
She had always thought so before today.

Until someone put a knife to his neck.

For the first time, Chen Wanning felt fear from the bottom of her heart.

She was stiff all over and dared not move.

"Who are you? If you want something, you can just tell me. Don't hurt me."

The man behind her seemed a little agitated. He looked at Chen Wanning's back and roughly grabbed her arm. His face was covered with a black mask.

Chen Wanning didn't even dare to breathe.

"The car you were riding in must be Sheng Sinian's car, right?"

The man whispered, "There is only one person who can ride in his car."

Chen Wanning didn't wait to open her mouth before continuing to ask.

Suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my neck.

Everything went dark before my eyes and I fell down.

----------

Shen Xiaocheng received the second letter before going to the dinner party.

The letter was sent via anonymous email.

[Your daughter is in my hands. If you want her to be safe, contact me immediately.]

"By your peace!"

Shen Xiaocheng suddenly shouted.

There was a slight tremor in his usually calm voice. "Call Suisui and see where they are."

Shen Ping'an had just gotten in the car when he heard Shen Xiaocheng's words. Although he felt a little strange, he still did as he was told.

Not long after, the call was connected.

Shen Xiaocheng was wondering when his cell phone suddenly vibrated again.

The kidnapper sent a photo.

When Shen Xiaocheng saw the photo, he was suddenly stunned.

--------------

Before coming to the hotel, Lin Suisui was still doubting whether Shen Xiaocheng really wanted to reconcile with everyone.

After all, my father’s personality hasn’t changed over the years. How could he suddenly change so much?
In the hotel's private room, Sheng Sinian held her hand under the table.

"Don't worry. Parents love their children deeply. Uncle may have figured it out. It just so happens that after dinner I can talk to uncle about the wedding ceremony."

Sheng Sinian's words gave her a great sense of security.

She smiled and nodded.

Shen Xiaocheng was exhausted and looked like he had just finished a busy job. There was even a hint of fatigue in his expression.

Although Sui Sui was angry with Shen Xiaocheng, she couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw her father like this. She even felt that she must have made Shen Xiaocheng angry during this period of time.

For a moment, no one knew what to say. Instead, Lin Jiaxiong spoke first.

"Since today is a reconciliation banquet, let me, an old man, open the banquet. I should have died a long time ago. It's only because I met Sui Sui that I am still alive today. Shen Xiaocheng, an old man like me did a lot of wrong things in the past. You have every right to hate me. I never thought about getting your forgiveness, but Sui Sui and Xile are both Zhiqi's children. I just hope that you can respect their choices and treat them well."

Lin Jiaxiong put himself in a very low position when he said this.

In addition, he had suffered from a serious illness and was old.

Lin Jiaxiong is already in his twilight years, and to be honest, he doesn't have many days left of being energetic.

He forced himself to come to the scene despite feeling uncomfortable, simply hoping that Shen Xiaocheng and Lin Suisui could become harmonious father and daughter again.

After all, Lin Jiaxiong knew very well that he would not live long, and the future of Suisui and Xile still depended on their father.

Lin Jiaxiong never intended to drag down Sui Sui from the beginning. Although he lives in Sui Sui's house now, he has already started planning for his later years.

"When I was sick, my only wish was to see Sui Sui again. Now God has fulfilled my wish, and I am very grateful. So, in the next period of time, I have also carefully considered my life. I want to find a nursing home with good conditions and spend my later years with some friends."

"Grandpa!"

Before Lin Jiaxiong could finish his words, Lin Suisui couldn't help but stand up to stop him.

Lin Jiaxiong just smiled and patted her shoulder, "Child, it's not like I haven't lived with you before, but when people get old, they are particularly afraid of being lonely. You are all children, and you can't talk to me."

After that, he added, "It's the grandfather who did your will notarization last time. He is also in that nursing home. Recently, he keeps calling me to say that he is short of one player for playing mahjong. I'm itching to do it, Suisui. I just hope you can visit me more often when you are free in the future. I am an old man and I can close my eyes when I die."

Life is limited.

Everyone understands this principle.

But before the end of life comes, no one will feel that they are about to die.

Nor will I grieve for that moment in advance.

However, now Lin Jiaxiong is truly heading towards death step by step.

Everyone knows it very well.

Lin Jiaxiong’s health has only been good for about ten to eight years.

He probably did this because he hoped Lin Suisui wouldn't invest too much emotion in him.

This way, when she dies, she won't be too sad.

There are some truths that make you angry when you don’t understand them, but once you understand them, you will be even more sad.

After hearing this, although Shen Xiaocheng had always been resentful towards Lin Jiaxiong, he could not bear to say anything more.

"Father... Logically, after I married Zhiqi, I should have called you father, but you never agreed in all these years. Today, I will dare to call you father."

The fact that Shen Xiaocheng could say this shows that he has really thought it through.

Seeing his always arrogant father, he lowered his head and called Lin Jiaxiong.

Lin Jiaxiong's eyes were red and he was speechless for a moment.

If I could accept Shen Xiaocheng back then.

Will everything...

Unfortunately, there are no ifs in life.

"Hey……"

Lin Jiaxiong let out a long sigh, and he seemed to have suddenly aged several years.

"Sui Sui, now that you know my thoughts, can you please listen to what Daddy says next?"

It was rare for Shen Xiaocheng to speak to him in a requesting tone.

Lin Suisui was startled for a moment, "Dad... go ahead."

Shen Xiaocheng then spoke slowly, "I don't object to you wanting to stay in Xuancheng, but you haven't been to Australia for so many years. The house your brother and I bought for you in Australia has not yet been transferred, and there are still many things over there... You can come back if you want. Now you can see with your own eyes, so how about this..."
