Chapter 65 Go and properly learn how to be a father

"Yes, Brother, I understand!"

A trace of determination flickered in Li Moling's still somewhat immature eyes.

The events that had just unfolded and the ugly faces of everyone involved had taught Li Moling a profound lesson.

Had her brother not been powerful enough, the three of them would have been chewed up and swallowed by this mob without even their bones left behind.

Li Moling raised her small face.

"Brother, after something like this, I'll probably be expelled. I'm sorry, I've let you down!"

"The fault does not lie with you, and furthermore, no one dares to expel you. What you need to do now is concentrate on your studies and enjoy your wonderful university days. As long as you don't leave any regrets behind, your grades don't matter at all."

"Brother, you're so good to me!"

Tears of emotion welled up in Li Moling's eyes.

"Oh, by the way."

Li Moling seemed to have suddenly remembered something.

"You're not young anymore, you should find a sister-in-law. You can't just stay single forever."

"Mom and Dad would definitely want you to live a better life, right!"

Li Moxuan raised an eyebrow with amusement.

"You little rascal, why are you suddenly worrying about your brother's major life events!"

Li Moxuan gently patted Li Moling's little head, his eyes overflowing with pampering affection.

The image of Gu Yaqing surfaced in his mind.

By tomorrow, everything would be settled once and for all.

"Brother, what do you think of Wenwen? She'd make a perfect wife!"

Chen Wenwen's pretty face instantly blushed bright red.

She hurriedly waved her hands:

"Moling, don't talk nonsense!"

Although Chen Wenwen stopped Li Moling from continuing, she cast an expectant look at Li Moxuan.

However, Li Moxuan's expression remained unchanged, which brought a slight sense of disappointment to Chen Wenwen's heart.

Such an extraordinary and powerful man, how could he possibly take a fancy to someone like her?

"I'm not talking nonsense at all! My brother is so amazing, if you marry him, you've struck gold!"

"Hush, stop talking!"

The two girls burst into a playful scuffle.

Li Moxuan didn't take it seriously.

"Alright, focus on your studies and stop letting your imagination run wild."

Although Chen Wenwen was pretty and cute, a fine young woman who valued loyalty and affection, to Li Moxuan, she was merely his sister's classmate.

He had completely no romantic thoughts whatsoever.

Besides, he still had Gu Yaqing in his heart.

Right at that moment, several cars pulled to a stop.

Over a dozen men stormed over aggressively.

Leading them was a man dressed in a sharp business suit, his silver-streaked hair combed back meticulously.

His expression was cold and imposing, radiating an oppressive aura without even a hint of anger.

"Wenwen, who hit you? Dad is going to exact vengeance for you."

The newcomer was none other than Chen Wenwen's father, Chen Jie.

Li Moxuan looked at Chen Jie with mild curiosity.

He hadn't expected him to be an early-stage Grandmaster martial artist; quite impressive indeed.

Chen Wenwen let out a cold, displeased snort.

"You only show up after everyone has already left!"

Chen Jie's tardiness only deepened the resentment in Chen Wenwen's heart.

"Huh? They're gone?"

A flicker of awkwardness crossed Chen Jie's face.

He had rushed over at maximum speed.

However, the Chen family estate was located in the suburbs of Wushi, a considerable distance from Wushi University.

Coupled with peak traffic hours, it was simply impossible to make it in time.

Chen Jie glanced around, and indeed, no one else was there.

Seeing that Chen Wenwen seemed to be in relatively good condition, he finally let out a sigh of relief.

Chen Wenwen said coldly:

"If Moling's brother hadn't been immensely powerful and dealt with that bunch of thugs, by the time you arrived, you probably wouldn't even have my corpse left to collect."

Li Moxuan looked at the father and daughter pair with a hint of surprise.

Why was their relationship so peculiar?

They acted almost like sworn enemies.

"Was it you who intervened?"

Chen Jie turned his gaze to Li Moxuan.

"Indeed!"

Li Moxuan did not deny it.

Chen Jie signaled to one of his subordinates.

The man took out a bank card from his briefcase.

"Thank you for saving my daughter. There are five million here as a token of my gratitude!"

Li Moxuan glanced at the bank card, showing no intention of accepting it.

"Do you think it's too little?"

Chen Jie frowned slightly.

"There's no need. My sister was in danger, and Wenwen stood up for her. It was only natural that I saved her. Some things should not be tainted with money; otherwise, it loses its meaning!"

"What? By saying that, are you harboring intentions toward my daughter?"

Chen Jie narrowed his eyes.

Nowadays, the Chen family bloodline was dwindling. Although Chen Wenwen was an illegitimate daughter, she was still a legitimate bloodline of the direct lineage.

Since the old patriarch of the Chen family had explicitly named her, no one else was permitted to harbor ulterior motives toward her.

Li Moxuan rolled his eyes.

"You're an interesting father. This is the first time I've met her today, what kind of intentions could I possibly have? She simply ran into trouble alongside us, it was merely a matter of convenience."

"Very well. However, I'll make myself clear in advance: no one is allowed to lay a finger or harbor thoughts regarding my daughter, including you!"

Li Moxuan let out a dry chuckle.

"Leaving aside whether I have any designs on her or not, regardless of the situation, elders shouldn't meddle in the personal affairs of younger people."

"You fail to show proper care and concern for your daughter, yet you still put on the airs of an elder to control her life. Don't you think that's a bit much?"

Chen Jie, however, let out a cold huff.

"Only commoners like you would think that way. In high-society aristocratic families like ours, there is only interest, no emotion!"

"Since she carries the blood of the Chen family, she must conform to the wishes of the Chen family!"

Chen Wenwen flew into a rage.

"Cut the crap, Chen Jie! I called you here to solve a problem. Not only do you fail to solve it, but you also humiliate Brother Li, who saved me! You were the one who drove me and my mother away back then, and now you want to put on the airs of head of the household to boss us around? What do you think you are?"

Chen Wenwen lashed out at Chen Jie with a barrage of curses.

Yet Chen Jie seemed entirely accustomed to it.

"Sigh... Wenwen, you're mistaken. I've already discussed it with your mother, and she has agreed to return to the Chen family. You are now a legitimate young lady of our Chen family."

"With only your eldest brother left in the house, you are the only daughter of our Chen family. I am your father, how could I possibly wish you harm?"

Chen Wenwen stood frozen in place, utterly stunned.

"What? How could my mother possibly agree to this?"

"Yet, it is the truth!"

Chen Wenwen's emotions suddenly collapsed.

"You must have used some despicable means to pressure my mother again."

"Let me tell you, Chen Jie, I will never forgive you, and I will never submit to your manipulation! You're nothing more than scum and a beast!"

"You are completely unqualified to be my father!"

Having finished her tirade, Chen Wenwen turned around and bolted toward the campus.

"I'll go check on Wenwen!"

Worried, Li Moling hurried after her.

Watching the retreating figures of the two girls, Chen Jie's expression turned gloomy.

He looked back at Li Moxuan.

"I have always drawn a clear line in my actions. You saved my daughter, so naturally, I want to reward you. Money and such are easily provided, but if you harbor any improper thoughts toward my daughter, don't blame me for being discourteous!"

"I'll add another ten million, making a total of fifteen million. That should be enough for you to live in comfort for the rest of your life!"

Watching Chen Jie strike a posture of being part of the upper echelon, Li Moxuan let out a scornful laugh.

"I'm not interested in money. Keep your fortune, and instead go learn how to actually be a father!"

With a cold smile, Li Moxuan turned and walked away.

Chen Jie stared at Li Moxuan's back, his expression shifting uncertainly.

A subordinate stepped forward and asked:

"This brat is far too arrogant. Should I have the brothers teach him a lesson?"

Chen Jie waved his hand dismissively.

"Forget it. If he genuinely harbors designs on my daughter, I certainly won't let him off."

"First, find out who was behind the attack on my daughter!"

"I'll make them pay the most agonizing price imaginable!"
