Chapter 369: Disheartened

Translator: Henyee Translations   Editor: Henyee Translations

Jiang Fei should have been very happy that things had gone so smoothly, but for some reason, he still felt that he had not completely relaxed. He thought he’d found the single most important piece of his life that was missing. His daughter. But for some reason, he still felt that his soul was empty, as if he could hear an echo when the wind blew in.

In a daze, Jiang Fei saw someone walk into the room. Lu Rou placed the water on the table and called out softly, “Uncle Jiang? Uncle Jiang?”

Although Lu Rou was already Jiang Fei’s daughter, Lu He told her not to call Jiang Fei ‘father’ immediately. In Lu He’s words, he had to make Jiang Fei pay something. It was not easy to find a new money tree, so he naturally had to think of a way to get more money from Jiang Fei.

However, Lu Rou could not bring herself to call him that. At the thought that the man in front of her was actually Lu Zhen’s father, she felt a little disgusted.

Lu Rou called out twice. Seeing that Jiang Fei did not react, she thought that he was asleep. She slowly walked to the bed and saw that the servant had placed Jiang Fei’s phone on the bedside table.

Lu Rou picked up the phone and saw that the phone Jiang Fei was using was still in the style that had been unlocked with his fingerprints a few years ago.

She lit up the screen and saw a few new messages. She turned to look at Jiang Fei and slowly approached him. Then, she reached out and wanted to press Jiang Fei’s finger on the fingerprint unlocking device.

However, Jiang Fei suddenly retracted his hand. Lu Rou was shocked. When she looked up, she realized that Jiang Fei had already opened his eyes. His expression was a little painful, but he was looking straight at her.

“You…” Just as Jiang Fei was about to speak, he coughed violently, as if his lungs were damaged.

Lu Rou’s mind raced as she hurriedly explained, “Uncle Jiang, I saw your cell phone light up. I thought someone was calling you.”

After his breathing stabilized, Jiang Fei was silent for a few seconds before nodding. “It might be my assistant. I’ll call him back.”
