Chapter 1197 I Really Don't Blame You
"You're tired, come here and take a rest."
Seeing that Jiang Li seemed to be still getting along with Allen, Jiang Boya spoke up at the right time and drew Jiang Li's eyes to him: "Didn't you hear what dad said?"
Pretending to be aggrieved, until Jiang Li walked over, Jiang Boya had a smile on his face and looked like he was not in a good mood.
But when Jiang Li came closer, Jiang Boya glanced at Jiang Li's hand holding Allen, and said casually: "How old is he? It's not like he can't walk, so there's no need for you to hold him." "
Hearing this, Jiang Li was startled at first, and then said a little funny: "No matter how old Allen is, he is not as big as me. Besides, I am willing to hold my brother's hand. Isn't this allowed?"
Jiang Boya choked: "Dad...Dad didn't say no."
Jiang Li raised his eyebrows: "Then what do you mean?"
"Okay, okay, daddy, why don't you stop telling me? If you want to hold me, you can hold me."
Jiang Boya gave in. He had no choice but to let him defeat his precious daughter.
Sighing in his heart, Jiang Boya seemed fine on the surface.
"You can't be too stingy."
Jiang Li looked at Jiang Boya and smiled, then said, "I'll take Allen to the studio, and you can chat with Miss Davis here."
Before Jiang Boya could react, Jiang Li led Allen to the studio.
"sit down."
After standing there for a while, Jiang Boya's eyes fell on Miss Davis. Seeing that Miss Davis had also stood up at some point, she couldn't help but greet her and sit down again: "With Li Li watching, the child will be fine."
"I know."
Miss Davis withdrew her gaze from her son Allen's back. She sat back down and said with gratitude, "I can see Miss Jiang Li's kindness to Allen."
"You are an elder, just call my daughter Jiang Li."
Hearing what Jiang Boya said, Miss Davis was stunned for a moment. Seeing this, Jiang Boya coughed twice and said: "Don't think too much, I just think Li Li really likes that child, and I just want to see Li Li." On the face of..."
Before the next words were spoken, Miss Davis smiled and interrupted Jiang Boya softly: "I know."
Jiang Boya: "You know?"
Miss Davis said softly, "Hmm," and she said: "Jiang Li is a good girl. As you said, she really likes Allen, but you do it for the sake of Jiang Li and Allen's affection and don't want to let her go." I was so uncomfortable around children that my attitude changed."
"..."
Jiang Boya remained silent, acquiescing to what Miss Davis said. After a moment, he looked directly at Miss Davis, with a slightly serious expression on his face and said:
"Although I don't want to admit that the child and I are father and son, the blood relationship between him and me cannot be denied. Based on this, I will give the child a sum of money when he becomes an adult, and that's all." The thin bond between us as father and son.
In addition, I will not stop him and Li Li from walking around on a daily basis, but the premise is...he cannot bring any harm to Li Li. Otherwise, don't blame me for not being friendly to you mother and son. "
"Need not."
Miss Davis was equally serious: "As long as Allen has me, you don't have to pay alimony to him. Besides, I've made it clear to you before that I won't let Allen cause you any trouble, and I won't let Allen go to Xiaoxiao." Thinking about things that don’t belong to him.”
Jiang Boya's face looked a little bad: "I gave it to you, so just keep it. After all, it's not for you, it's for the child."
Pursing his lips, Davis was silent for a while, then nodded: "Then let me thank you in advance for Allen."
"No need."
Jiang Boya waved his hand, and then a wry smile emerged from the corner of his mouth: "Compared to your child, I'm actually more sorry for Li Li. Apart from anything else, your child has been by your side since childhood and has been carefully cared for by you every day. big,
And Li Li, I knew that she was a child, but I left her biological mother more than 20 years ago and came here across the ocean... Who would have known that after giving birth to Li Li, that woman...
He abandoned her and started a family with another man. If she had not been picked up by a kind person, my daughter would have died long ago or her life would have been miserable.
Telling you this, I think you should understand that I actually don’t owe you mother and son anything. After all, I was not at fault for that night between you and me. It was also your own wish that you gave birth to the child later. And you never informed me,
Therefore, neither you nor the child is my responsibility. "
"No need to say more, Mr. Jiang, I understand what you mean."
Miss Davis had a natural expression: "Whether you believe it or not, I never thought about asking you to be responsible for me or Allen."
"Just speak clearly, so as not to cause any unpleasantness in the future and make everyone look bad."
"Mr. Jiang is right."
The two of them were talking to each other in a nonchalant manner. It was an hour later when Jiang Li and Allen came out of the studio.
"We should go."
Miss Davis looked at her son Alan and she spoke softly.
"……good."
In response, Allen sat in the wheelchair and looked at Jiang Li: "Sister...goodbye..."
"goodbye."
Jiang Li's clear and bright eyes were full of smiles. She and Jiang Boya sent Miss Davis and her son to the living room door, watched them get into the car, and then watched the car drive out of the villa and away to the gate of the manor.
"Everyone has left, can you take a break now?"
Jiang Boya helped Jiang Li back to the living room, complaining on the lips, well, but actually caring. He just heard him say: "You are pregnant with a child, how can you not pay more attention to your body and spend a lot of time on that child?" On your body? I don’t know if dad will feel sorry for you?”
"What about that kid?"
Jiang Li looked at Jiang Boya and said, "Alan is also your child. Even if you don't like him, you can't deny his existence."
Jiang Boya: "I didn't deny it."
"Didn't you deny it? Who is that child?"
Jiang Li was a little amused: "To be honest, I have never seen a stingy old man like you.
As for me spending a lot of time with Ellen, you're not right.
Think about it, how busy I am on weekdays. I have to go to class and study, I have to be busy with my career, and at the same time I have to take care of my baby. I only spend some time with Allen on weekends..."
"It's two hours, not a while."
"Okay, it's two hours, but during these two hours I was not only spending time with Alan, but also giving prenatal care to the baby in my belly, and I didn't feel tired at all."
"Just be tough!"
The two sat on the sofa, Jiang Boya looked serious: "You are pregnant with more than one child, so there is no room for any mistakes."
"You are watching me at home, and Sister Song and the others are keeping an eye on me when I go out. I don't think anything will happen to me."
Jiang Li smiled: "Let's not go too far. I just want to ask, don't you want to see Allen's autism cured?"
Jiang Boya: "You are not a doctor."
"I'm not a doctor, but Alan's autism has improved during his time with me. Do you admit it?"
Jiang Li's beautiful eyebrows were raised slightly, and she looked at her biological father in front of her leisurely.
"Okay, okay, whatever you say is right."
Jiang Boya felt a little hot.
In front of the little girl, he found that he was clumsy and tongue-tied at every turn, which was completely different from the person he was at the negotiation table.
well!
His old face is so shameless!
"Mr. Jiang, you are obviously emotional. Forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't admit it. Anyway, I will not give up on Allen. At least before I return to China, I will help the children as much as I can."
"Dad is not talking to you emotionally."
Jiang Boya is a daughter slave. He said warmly: "The child's autism is getting better. This has a lot to do with you."
However, he quickly changed the subject and asked, "What's going on between you and that golden retriever?"
"Golden Retriever?"
Jiang Li blinked his beautiful eyes: "The golden retriever Mr. Jiang mentioned refers to..."
"Are you sure you're not pretending to be confused?"
Jiang Boya looked serious.
"Why should I pretend?"
Jiang Li was puzzled.
"This is the wild man who came to your house to find you!"
Jiang Boya almost gritted his teeth: "He is not a good person. You are not allowed to have any contact with him in the future."
"It turns out Mr. Jiang was talking about Austin."
Jiang Li said, then frowned: "How can you give people nicknames casually? Mr. Jiang, you are a person of status. It is really inappropriate to give people nicknames like this."
Jiang Boya snorted, with a look of arrogance on his face: "Do you think I am willing to give him a nickname? The only blame is that he has a bad heart for you!"
"..."
Austin has a crush on her?
Jiang Li felt very unreliable: "Mr. Jiang, are you sure you are not talking nonsense?"
"He admitted it himself, don't tell me you didn't notice it at all."
How could his daughter be so innocent?
Jiang Boya was worried, and he said sincerely: "Although I am quite dissatisfied with my son-in-law's second marriage, you are already husband and wife after all, and you are pregnant with my son-in-law's child, so you can't have too much involvement with the golden retriever."
"Mr. Jiang, you misunderstood."
Jiang Li was funny and helpless: "I said that Austin is the child of my mentor, and my mentor, Mrs. Vivian, treats me as her child. From this relationship, Austin only He is my senior brother, and there will be no other relationship between me and him.”
Speaking of this, Jiang Li's face changed, and she pretended to be cold: "You are quite dissatisfied with my lover, Mr. Jiang, why is this?"
"My daughter is so good, how can she be worthy of a second-married man?!"
Jiang Boya blurted out: "Besides, he has three children, what are you marrying him for? In other words, is he not marrying you to find a nanny for the children at home?"
Hearing this, Jiang Li responded: "I want him to be as beautiful as a flower, and I want him to have a high income. Are these two good reasons?"
"..."
Jiang Boya was stunned. After a moment, he glared: "Is he good-looking if he has your father? How much money will he have if he has your father?"
"Mr. Jiang and my wife are both good-looking. To say which one is more beautiful, I can only say that you have different beauty."
Jiang Li suppressed a laugh and said seriously: "Speaking of a lot of money, I'm sorry, when I married my lover, I didn't know who you were, Mr. Jiang."
"Are you blaming Dad?"
"I blame you? Why?"
"You must blame me for not being able to stay with you and watch you grow..."
"No."
Jiang Li interrupted Jiang Boya, and she said calmly: "Before I didn't know about my life experience, I lived a very happy life; after learning about my life experience, I don't think it has any impact on my life. In other words, I still I am the one who has a family who loves me and a lover who will accompany me for the rest of my life. Why should I be upset with you, Mr. Jiang?”
"You have kept dad out of your heart, haven't you?"
Jiang Boya spoke with sadness.
"Mr. Jiang, you are too sentimental."
Jiang Li felt helpless: "I really don't blame you. Not to mention that you were forced to go abroad back then, even if you didn't leave, with your background, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to raise me by your side."
"Why not? You are my child. As a father, it is natural for me to raise my own daughter!"
Jiang Boya's eyes were slightly red.
"Mr. Jiang thinks that woman would be willing to give birth to me when you are in trouble? To put it another way, even if she gave birth to me, are you sure she would take me with you to share the hardship? If I remember correctly,
Mr. Jiang once told me that the woman knew how to make herself live well. For such a selfish woman who only has herself in her heart, I don't think she would give up her good life and accompany you to suffer with her newborn child."
Jiang Li said slowly, her eyes were clear: "Since I know it in my heart, I won't blame you for anything."
"Are you trying to excuse your father?"
"No, I'm not trying to excuse you , I'm just telling the truth. "
"Then you...then are you blaming your biological mother?"
"No, I don't blame anyone. I'm even grateful that she abandoned me, so that I have the honor to be the daughter of my parents and be raised in their hands. "
Speaking of this, Jiang Li sighed: "Mr. Jiang, I'm telling the truth. It's up to you whether you believe it or not."
Jiang Boya raised his head, forced back the moisture in his eyes, and then looked back at Jiang Li: "Dad is sentimental. If it affects your mood, Dad is here to say sorry to you."
He wanted to get into the little girl's heart, but he couldn't be impatient. He knew it clearly, but he made a fool of himself just now.
Jiang Boya regretted asking Jiang Li "Are you blaming Dad?"
"Mr. Jiang is polite."
Jiang Li shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.
Let alone that she was not the original owner, even if she was, what reason did she have to blame this man?
He was forcibly taken abroad by his father, and the original owner was abandoned by her biological mother. If there is any fault, it is undoubtedly the biological mother of the original owner who bears the brunt.
——It is better not to give birth to a child than to raise it.
Then there is the hypothesis she mentioned. Suppose the man in front of him was not forcibly taken abroad by his father, Mr. Jiang, under the general environment at that time, could he have a good life?
The answer is unconsciously negative.
No, this person will not have a good life. In this case, even if the biological mother of this body gave birth to the original owner, she would most likely choose to abandon the original owner to her other half, Jiang Boya.
Then leave far away and find another way to make a living.
Because selfish people never think about others, let alone take into account the feelings of others. In his (her) heart, nothing is better than their own interests!
After secretly adjusting his mood, Jiang Boya said, "Although Dad is not satisfied with your lover's remarriage and his three children, Dad will not say anything if you like him.
As for what Dad said before, it was just because he felt sorry for you. Thinking that you, a good girl, married a remarried man who was nearly ten years older than you, and became a stepmother as soon as you entered the house, Dad felt uncomfortable."
"My lover treats me very well, and the three children at home are also very well-behaved. I am very happy living with them."
Jiang Li's expression returned to normal. She seemed to be chatting casually, and simply told Jiang Boya about her physical condition since childhood, the Zhou family's divorce, and then the matter of marrying Luo Yanqing.
"So that's it."
Jiang Boya was ashamed: "Dad thought too much, your parents really love you, and they have considered everything for you... The son-in-law is also a good one!"
If he wants to be recognized by his daughter from the bottom of her heart and be regarded as a family member by her, everything he has done for her so far is far from enough!
Jiang Li smiled: "My parents and my wife are really good to me."
Speaking of this, Jiang Li brought the topic back to Austin: "Mr. Jiang, when you see Austin again, treat him a little better. After all, he is my mentor's child."
Jiang Boya: "He has evil intentions towards you, and I can't give him a good face."
"I believe Austin knows the limits."
Jiang Li smiled indifferently, and said: "Mrs. Vivian is very respectable. I am honored to be her student, and such a respectable person, her children's character will not be bad."
"People's hearts are separated from their stomachs."
Jiang Boya muttered.
Jiang Li smiled: "That depends on my willingness."
"What if they have many tricks and you accidentally fall into the trap?"
Jiang Boya expressed his concerns.
"Then you underestimated me."
Jiang Li looked relaxed, she changed her posture and sat on the sofa: "I have very high standards, ordinary people can't catch my eye. Besides, my wife is both excellent and extremely good to me, I have never thought of changing myself."
Jiang Boya was speechless, he was silent for a moment, and sighed: "Okay, when I see that golden retriever again, Dad will change his attitude towards him."
"It's not a golden retriever, it's Austin."
Jiang Li said helplessly: "We have to respect people, understand?"
"I know, it's not a golden retriever, it's Austin, we have to respect people."
Jiang Boya suppressed his laughter and repeated what Jiang Li said.
"You are imitating me."
Jiang Li pretended to be unhappy.
"Really?"
Jiang Boya did not admit it.
"Mr. Jiang, I didn't expect you to be so childish!"
Jiang Li sighed and shook his head: "Are you men getting more childish as you grow older?"
"Nonsense. Dad is a mature, stable and extremely charming man!"
Childish? How can he be associated with childish?
The daughter was probably tired, so her mind was a little confused.
Thinking of this, Jiang Boya said: "Dad will help you go back to the room to lie down for a while?"
"I'm not tired, you go and get busy,"
Jiang Li didn't know what Jiang Boya was thinking. She picked up the book that had been placed on the sofa before, found the bookmark, opened it and continued to read.
Seeing this, Jiang Boya was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head with a smile in his heart, thinking that Jiang Li was right, he was indeed a little childish, otherwise, how could he think about it like a child?
Here, Jiang Li and Jiang Boya were sitting in the living room, one reading a book and the other flipping through a newspaper, the atmosphere was harmonious, and on the other side, Miss Lily and her son Allen returned to Rose Manor and went to see her father Ian.
"Lisa, are you overthinking? Austin is your cousin!"
"I didn't say he's not."
"Then you..."
Ian didn't understand why his daughter asked him to beware of Austin.
"When he heard Alan talking, his expression changed from surprise to complexity. I couldn't help but think about it."
Miss Lily looked serious, "Alan will be completely fine. I don't want anyone to covet what belongs to Alan."
Rubbing his forehead, Ian couldn't hide his fatigue between his eyebrows: "Lisa, I have said more than once that if Alan can be like a normal child, then he will be the new successor of our family after you.
But for now, you are still not ready to be my successor. Why do you think about Alan's future?"
"I'm just in case."
Lily The lady remained calm: "Austin is now only a branch of the Davis family, but you have given him considerable power. Do you want him to replace me and have his children take over the entire Davis family in the future?"
"Dad has never had such an idea!"
Ian said earnestly: "As long as you can be completely independent, Dad will immediately step down and you will take over all family affairs. But the fact is that you are not even willing to leave this manor, and you have to send documents here. Do you think this is appropriate?"
Miss Lily was silent.
"Think about it carefully. Dad will never give up the power in his hands to others until you can be completely independent."
He has paid a lot for the family to be what it is today, so how could he give everything in his hands to a cousin?
"You are busy, I'm leaving."
After leaving a message, Miss Lily turned and left.
Seeing this, Ian did not call his daughter. He looked at the landline, thought for a moment, and then picked up the microphone to contact Austin.
The call was connected.
After the uncle and nephew chatted for a while, Ian began to hit Austin.
When the call ended, Austin's face became very ugly.
He didn't expect that he had been working diligently for the family for many years, but he couldn't resist a word from his cousin Lisa in front of his uncle Ian.
Clenching his fist, Austin hit the desk in front of him hard to vent his frustration and anger.
Don't think about anything, remember your identity.
What does it mean?
Tell him not to think about anything, let him remember his identity, and hit him like this, is this trampling on his dignity?
Austin's face was cold, he pursed his lips and stared at the landline for a long time, and made a decision.
Time passed quickly, like a white horse passing by, and it was mid-March in a blink of an eye.
This day.
Miss Lily brought Allen to the Jiang family manor again.
"You look too good, is there something wrong?"
Jiang Boya and Jiang Hongfa were not there, and only Jiang Li, Miss Lily, and Allen were in the living room at this time.
"What do you think of Austin?"
Miss Lily looked into Jiang Li's eyes: "I want to hear the truth."
"He is ambitious, but not a reckless person."
Knowing what the other party wanted to know, Jiang Li did not hide it and chose to tell the truth.
Miss Lily: "Austin resigned from all his positions half a month ago."
"There must be a reason for this."
Instead of asking, Jiang Li used a statement.
"I suspected that he coveted the position of the head of the family, so I told my father my guess."
Then replace... Bug hunting
