Chapter 248: Heart to Heart Talk With Xia Hai

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After Li Jin left, Xia Hai hesitated.

Xia Wan looked at him. “Dad, if you have anything to ask, just say it.”

Xia Hai hesitated momentarily before asking, “Is it really not okay for Xia Ru to work at the factory?”

Xia Wan knew that although Xia Hai and Li Jin had separated, they were still family to him. If possible, it would be best if they helped each other.

However, what Xia Hai did not know was that if Xia Ru had a good life, she would not let his family have one.

Xia Wan decided to have a good talk with her father. She wanted him to figure out their relationship.

“Dad, come with me to my house to talk,” Xia Wan said.

“Alright.”

The two of them returned to the living room.

Xia Wan did not beat around the bush and said directly, “Dad, it’s like this.

How’s the relationship between our family and Grandma’s family now?”

Xia Hai was a little confused by Xia Wan’s question. After a moment of silence, he said, “We’re separated now, but we’re still a family.”

Xia Wan nodded. “So, Dad, you think that we’re still a family, so we should help each other when we’re in trouble and live a good life together when our living conditions are better, right?”

Xia Wan’s words hit the nail on the head. That was what Xia Hai was thinking, but looking at his daughter’s expression, he felt that something was wrong.

“Wanwan, are you hiding something from me?” Xia Hai asked.

Xia Wan knew that she could not tell Xia Hai she had been reborn. He would not believe her. She decided to help Xia Hai sort out his logic.

“Dad, think back to the time when your daughter’s reputation was ruined. The villagers all said that she was a seductress in school. Later, I was pushed into the water. My two cousins were clearly nearby, but they didn’t choose to save me. Do you think they are kind?

“If they fell into the water, our family would definitely go and save them, but if it’s us, they definitely won’t. It’s because they don’t like our family and don’t want to help us at all. They think that we’re trouble and an embarrassing existence.”

“Dad, you and Mom are both kind, so you assume that everyone must be as kind. You treat them as family, so you think that they treat us as family. In fact, that’s not the case, Dad. Their hearts are evil, and they won’t want our family to live well.”

“Now that I have this opportunity, I can introduce people to the factory in the south. Why didn’t I introduce them to Xia Ru?

“On the one hand, Xia Ru indeed doesn’t meet the requirements. I don’t have the ability to get her in. On the other hand, if she gets there and becomes rich and has status, do you think she will be grateful to us? She won’t. Instead, she’ll show off in front of us, despise us, and embarrass us.

“She might even deliberately cause trouble and destroy our business, leaving our family without income and preventing my brother and me from attending school. Dad, if I help Xia Ru now, I’ll raise a tiger and invite disaster!”

Xia Hai fell silent.

He wanted to deny Xia Wan’s words. He felt that they were family and couldn’t possibly be so ruthless. Just like him, if Xia Jiang and Xia He were better off than his family, he would only be happy for his two brothers.

However, thinking about it carefully, Xia Ru was a proud child. She had never liked their Wanwan since she was young and always thought she was very strong. On Li Jin’s side, Xia Ru was the one she most doted among her granddaughters.

Now that Wanwan was stronger than Xia Ru in all aspects, Xia Ru would definitely be unwilling.

If Wanwan really gave Xia Ru the chance to go to the factory, would she really cherish it?

No, she wouldn’t. She would only think that Wanwan was giving her alms.

Xia Hai put himself in Xia Ru’s shoes and slowly understood what Xia Wan said.

He had been naive before. He had mistakenly thought that he and his family could at least develop peacefully. The reality was that if their family was doing well, Xia Jiang and Xia He would be jealous. If their families were doing well, they would turn against their families.

The two families were already enemies.

Xia Wan saw the change in Xia Hai’s expression and knew that he had thought it through.

Xia Hai sighed. “Wanwan, I was wrong. I was too naive. I won’t care about Li Jin anymore. I’ll listen to you.”

Xia Wan was relieved to hear Xia Hails words..
