Sir, How About A Marriage novel Chapter 223

Ning Dong did not look like he believed Ji An.

Ji An sighed. “Fool, is that why you always look so down?”

Ning Dong did not say anything.

Ji An continued to say, “Since you’ve been in school, you should know about the principle of natural selection. That child was destined not to be able to come into this world. You were just at the wrong place at the wrong time; there’s no need to blame yourself. It’s his fate. Little brother, listen to me. You’re without blame in regard to this matter. As for the matters with the adults, it has nothing to do with you as well.” Then, he paused for a moment before he asked, “However, I still don’t understand. What does this have to do with your father waking up? Why are you unhappy?”

Ning Dong sighed and bluntly said, “Brother Ji An, I hate my father.”

Ji An raised his eyebrows upon hearing these words.

Ning Dong averted his gaze and said, “Recently, he has been trying very hard to get his daughter to return to the family. However, his daughter is very stubborn and refuses to return no matter what. He has been coming up with all sorts of methods to make her return. She hates us. If she returns, she’ll definitely seek revenge. After all, everyone knows I’m the one who caused her brother’s death. At that time, perhaps, the lightest punishment for us is to be kicked out of the house.”

Ji An picked up a piece of meat from the hotpot and took a bite before he asked, “So? What does that have to do with your father waking up?”

Ji An remained silent; it was as though he was too frightened to speak.

Ning Dong, on the other hand, picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth. After swallowing that piece of meat, he continued to say, “I didn’t expect him to be so lucky. That truck driver died, but he survived… His injuries were rather serious. I went to visit him at the hospital almost every day. There were many times when I was filled with the urge to pull the oxygen mask away from his face. I only managed to restrain myself when I thought about how I’d be found out if I did that…” After a pause, he continued to say, “Previously, the doctors said it was likely that he would be in a vegetative state for the rest of his life; I thought that was a good thing. My father’s assistant even arranged for me to sit in during the board of directors’ meetings. This would pave the way for me to take over the company in the future. It wasn’t too bad for my father to stay a figurehead for a little longer; after all, I’m still in university. I thought I’d have a few years to familiarize myself with the company before taking over; who knew he would wake up?”

Ning Dong let out a long sigh after he finished speaking.

Meanwhile, a disturbed expression could be seen on Ji An’s face..
