Chapter 437: Guess 437_Possibility 1

Did he hear it?

Lu Qingyi just called him dad. She just now called him dad.

Is he perhaps hallucinating?

He had been waiting for so long, and was always anticipating for Lu Qingyi to call him dad, but it never happened.

He was both hopeful and disappointed.

He dare not ask Lu Qingyi to call him dad, because he felt he didn’t have the right to do so.

"What...did you just call me?"

Lu Mohai’s voice trembled slightly as he looked at Lu Qingyi and asked.

He was suddenly scared that he was just hallucinating. He didn’t dare to believe that Lu Qingyi had just called him dad.

"Dad, I called you Dad."

Lu Qingyi looked at Lu Mohai, speaking slowly.

Seeing how excited Lu Mohai was, Lu Qingyi suddenly felt very guilty. She should’ve called him dad sooner.

"Daughter, Qingyi, my daughter..."

Lu Mohai’s lips were shaking too. He looked at Lu Qingyi with disbelief in his eyes, mixed with indescribable emotions.

Lu Qingyi had finally called him dad.

"Dad, you’ve worked hard. You don’t need to take care of my daily life any more. Go out and do something you enjoy. Don’t just do what you think I want."

Lu Qingyi went into the kitchen, reached for the spatula in Lu Mohai’s hand, cooking utensils, and began to speak softly and gently.

Ever since Lu Mohai found out she was his daughter, he had been trying to make it up to Lu Qingyi, accomodating her in every way and worrying about her daily life.

This, Lu Qingyi felt, wasn’t necessary. Maybe she just wasn’t good at expressing her feelings. In her heart, she had already recognized Lu Mohai as her father, but she had been unable to bring herself to say it out loud.

"Taking care of you brings me the greatest joy. I’m not just putting up with you. I’m doing what I like."

Lu Mohai gently shook his head, a soft smile around his lips.

Indeed, he felt so fortunate and happy right now, being able to take care of Lu Qingyi. He was overjoyed.

They’d finished the last dish, Lu Qingyi and Lu Mohai sat opposite each other at the dinner table.

"This is the first time we’ve been alone together since we acknowledged our relationship."

Lu Mohai glanced at the dishes on the table, then looked at Lu Qingyi, speaking slowly.

It was indeed the case. Since they had made their relationship as father and daughter public, this was their first time having dinner alone, just the two of them.

Lu Qingyi nodded, "Yes."

"You’re in your junior year of high school now. Have you given any thought to what you want to do after graduation?"

Lu Mohai asked.

Lu Mohai knew a lot about Lu Qingyi’s background, but he had no idea what she actually wanted to do in life.

She had been a brilliant student in the prestigious Hardrick University, renowned for her intellectual prowess, but she’d unexpectedly chosen to leave and study medicine.

In the fine month of June, she was lackadaisical, showing little interest in practicing or composing piano pieces.

...

Lu Qingyi seemed indifferent to almost everything, as if nothing really interested her.

Lu Mohai couldn’t figure out what Lu Qingyi really enjoyed.

The situation reminded him of Ruan Qingyang.

Although Ruan Qingyang was truly enthusiastic about medical matters, she had once personally admitted that she did not really like medicine itself; she’d had no other choice.

Lu Mohai could not understand why, and Ruan Qingyang never told him.

She could do many things, but didn’t seem particularly attached to anything. She only did things in order to fulfill obligations, nothing else.

"I’ll see when the time comes if there’s nothing I want to do. If nothing else, there’s always the family business to inherit, right?"

Lu Qingyi joked, a smile on her face as she looked at Lu Mohai.

"Yes, as long as you’re happy."

Lu Mohai nodded and placed a piece of green pepper into Lu Qingyi’s bowl.

"Lu Yao’s first love was my mother."

Lu Qingyi poked at the rice in her bowl, speaking slowly.

Lu Mohai was momentarily surprised, before quickly composing himself. It was not unusual for someone to be drawn to Ruan Qingyang, who was so outstanding and radiant.

"Yao Meishu might have had a motive to kill in order to keep a secret."

Lu Qingyi tilted her head slightly, her voice speculative.

If Ruan Qingyang’s death was truly related to Yao Meishu, then it was probably because of Lu Yao.

Yao Meishu loved Lu Yao, but Lu Yao initially fell in love with Ruan Qingyang. So, Yao Meishu imitated Ruan Qingyang’s character and ended up building a successful relationship with Lu Yao. They loved and supported each other.

Ruan Qingyang had always been in Kyoto but suddenly moved to Jin City, which alarmed Yao Meishu. She was afraid that Lu Yao would find out.

When Ruan Qingyang gave birth, she was at her weakest, which was the perfect opportunity for Yao Meishu to act.

She was afraid that Lu Yao would leave her, that he would despise her for deceiving him. So, she chose to sacrifice Ruan Qingyang. She made it seem as though Ruan Qingyang had died from complications during childbirth.

"I’m going to see Yao Meishu now."

Lu Yao suddenly stood up. He wanted answers.

"Dad, I’m just guessing."

Lu Qingyi shook her head at Lu Yao, replying in a calm manner.

After all, her thoughts were mere speculation. What if Ruan Qingyang’s death had nothing to do with Yao Meishu?

Her speculations would be close to the truth, provided Ruan Qingyang’s death was related to Yao Meishu.

"I acted impulsively."

Lu Mohai exhaled deeply, slowly sitting back down.

He had indeed acted impulsively.

"Dad, you can start by trying to accidentally run into Yao Meishu."

Lu Qingyi bit her lip slightly, stuttering as she suggested this, looking somewhat uncomfortable.

It would at least require Lu Yao to be willing.

Lu Mohai: "Why?"

Lu Qingyi told him everything she had heard and seen. She couldn’t force Lu Mohai to make a decision. Whether Lu Mohai wanted to or not was his decision to make.

"Alright, I’ll go."

Lu Mohai nodded his head. He was definitely going. He was very willing to go, there was no unwillingness whatsoever.

As long as there was a chance of finding even a shred of truth, there was no way he could refuse.

"Eat more. Boyan mentioned that you like beef."

Lu Qingyi picked up a piece of beef with her chopsticks and placed it into Lu Mohai’s bowl, speaking slowly.

It was odd knowing her own father’s preferences from other people. It didn’t feel right.

"Boyan cooked the beef."

Lu Mohai said.

When he arrived, Xu Boyan was cooking. He had been sitting in the living room while Xu Boyan took a phone call, stating that he had been called away on something urgent and left the kitchen to him before rushing out the door.

Given the circumstances, it must have been an emergency. Lu Mohai didn’t bother asking Xu Boyan why.

Lu Qingyi’s lips lifted in a small smile. She was genuinely happy.
