Chapter 102: After Modification: Chapter 102 Situation

Qin Zhan knew from the first day he met Bi Xia that this child carried a heavy burden.

He always thought Bi Xia was a very mysterious child. Even though her family was so ordinary, she seemed capable of everything, and compared to Xu Renfei, who received all kinds of education since childhood, she was not inferior at all.

Qin Zhan had thought about investigating, but he felt it would be a sign of distrust. Moreover, regardless of who Bi Xia was, as long as she was his child, that was enough. There was no one Qin Zhan wanted to protect that he couldn’t. But seeing the child’s helpless look today prompted Qin Zhan to understand her past. He never would’ve imagined the child had encountered such things...

At five, taken into a crowd by Bi Wu, nearly kidnapped.

At seven, when Xia Shi was pregnant, Bi Wu pushed Bi Xia into a river, almost drowning her.

At eight, her father abandoned the family, and at ten, her father died.

Heh, her father died?

Qin Zhan sneered coldly. If it hadn’t been written so conclusively in the records, it could almost be taken as the truth.

One side didn’t want to face the legal consequences of bigamy, nor did he want his two children with his legitimate wife to trace him later. He also wanted to bind Little Nine’s mother into working tirelessly for the Bi Family. Meanwhile, he dreamed of changing his name to enjoy wealth and honor, hiding the truth from Little Nine’s family of three. Indeed, a brilliant idea!

Thinking back to when Little Nine’s personality changed drastically, facing rumors, accusations, insults, and beatings... Qin Zhan felt a surge of fury.

Although the current Little Nine wasn’t the same as the one described in the records, still...

With his phoenix eyes slightly closed, he recalled the fragile youth under the moonlight, the helpless look filled with resentment and hatred. Qin Zhan knew that was Little Nine, the Little Nine of the past.

According to the records, Little Nine’s first outbreak and rebellious transformation began on the day he met him.

His mind replayed the scene of their first encounter: the youth, though in a sorry state, had eyes gleaming with defiant joy and fierceness. Qin Zhan was grateful he met the youth that day, becoming a witness to his transformation.

Yet, he also felt heartache. If someone isn’t pushed to their limits, they wouldn’t rebel or turn into someone who constantly wears a tough exterior.

With a faint golden light in his phoenix eyes, Qin Zhan slowly got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, expressionless, staring at the dark courtyard outside his study.

"Fourth Brother, let me hug you..."

His eyes slightly drooping, his hand lightly placed over his heart, the youth’s voice echoed, making it beat fervently. Why was that...

Bi Xia would never know that at that moment, even though Qin Zhan had left, he suddenly decided to return. He turned back, asked the driver to take him back, and stood alone in the corner, watching the youth with his friends in the store.

"Buzz—"

He turned, walked to the desk, picked up the phone, and paused before answering, "Hello..."

"Hello, my ass!" A robust voice came from the other side, "You brat, you’ve had enough fun. Hurry up and get your ass back here!"

Pressing his brow helplessly, "Grandpa, in a bad mood?"

"Good mood, my foot!" Elder Qin snorted coldly, "Don’t you know what kind of people they are? You just up and left me, an old man, to deal with them alone. Are you still planning to be the successor of this family head?"

Chuckling lightly, Qin Zhan responded nonchalantly, "Whether or not I do that is up to you, Grandpa. Why should I be in a hurry?"

"You brat!" Elder Qin was fuming, "Get back right now! Otherwise, I don’t care if you agree or not, I’ll arrange a marriage for you!"

With a darkened gaze, Qin Zhan looked into the distance, stared at the star-filled sky for a long while, then slowly spoke, "You know, Grandpa, as long as I don’t want it, even if you arrange a hundred thousand marriages, I can still ruin them all. Unless that family truly doesn’t fear death..."
