Chapter 394: Chapter 391 Persuasion to Stay

Zhou Siyu could see his thoughts and panicked immediately, grabbing hold of him, "Uncle, now that things have come to this point, we definitely can’t let my sister out. If we don’t let her out, you just need to insist that this has nothing to do with you. At most, she will only hate me. But if she finds out it was you who locked her up, do you really think she won’t hate you?"

"You heard what she said just now. If we don’t let her out, she’ll never acknowledge me as her father and won’t come back to this home." He was too foolish, thinking of his daughter as too stupid and landing himself in such an awkward situation.

Thankfully, it still wasn’t too late to turn back.

"Uncle, my sister is just bluffing to trick you, that’s why she deliberately said those things. Where could she go if she says she won’t come back? At most, she’ll roam around a bit, but when it gets dark, she’ll have to come home," Zhou Siyu clenched her teeth in anger inwardly, thinking how easily her uncle could be swayed. But on the outside, she appeared considerate of him, "Think about it. If she comes out and confirms that you locked her up, will she truly be able to let it go?"

Shen Jianhua’s body stiffened.

Right! If Mianmian comes out, can she really let go as she claimed?

"Uncle, my sister is deceiving you now, that’s why she deliberately spoke those words. You mustn’t fall for it!" Zhou Siyu’s eyes reddened, and she sniffed, "Actually, I don’t object to my sister going to school either. She is your daughter, after all, and it’s right that she should be the one to go to school. My sister is right, I stole her life. But, now that things have come to this, if you let my sister out, your father-daughter relationship is truly over. She will always hold a grudge against you in her heart. When you both grow old, she won’t treat you well."

"..."

Shen Jianhua suddenly came to his senses.

Right!

He was just about to believe Mianmian’s words and open the door.

Siyu is right. When the wife scolds the daughter, and the daughter holds a grudge, constantly sulking and never smiling at her mother, if everything turns out to be his doing, how could she forgive him?

He almost fell for it.

"I’m glad you woke me up," Shen Jianhua said with a shiver of fear, worried that he might be swayed by his daughter’s words again, "Come on, let me take you to the exam first."

His daughter was already locked up, he mustn’t delay his niece’s exam any longer.

Zhou Siyu felt a surge of joy inside and followed behind Shen Jianhua with her backpack, not forgetting to say, "Uncle, everything you and auntie have done is for me. Although my last name is Zhou, I’ve always considered myself your daughter. Blood is not thicker than water. As long as I have something to eat in the future, I won’t let you and auntie go hungry, and once I get into university, I’ll bring you both to live in the city."

Shen Jianhua and Zhou Lanfang were different; he had never thought of living in the city. The saying goes, ’fallen leaves return to their roots’; he was a countryman, and of course, he would want to spend his old age here. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have prevented his daughter from going to the city.

But, no matter what, he found Zhou Siyu’s words soothing to hear.

Especially the phrase, "Blood is not thicker than water."

"Siyu, your aunt and I are country folks, and we’re not used to the city. If you just come back to see us often, we’ll be content," he responded.

Zhou Siyu hopped onto the back seat of the vehicle, "Uncle, I’ll definitely come to see you often. If I don’t see you for a long time, I’ll miss you a lot."

Shen Jianhua was fully charmed by Zhou Siyu’s words and his face was filled with smiles. Just as he was about to mount the vehicle, he heard Li Chunhua’s voice from behind.

"Jianhua, are you going to take the child to the exam?"
