Chapter 1217: I Am Your Father-in-Law15

Agitated, Cheng Chen reached for his phone but found himself trembling. He couldnt even swipe his phone screen to input his pa.s.sword.

This caused him to input the wrong pa.s.sword several times, causing the phone to be in auto-lock mode, requiring half an hour before it could be unlocked again.

Cheng Chen controlled his breaths. Ling Tianya was the Ling familys daughter, and she said she was bought off the streets.

But according to Huang Longs words, Yu Meizi was the lady who had bought a girl from him. And that meant that the girl that Yu Meizi bought back then was Ling Tianya.

That meant, her daughter was Ling Tianya!

As he realized this, Cheng Chens heart began thumping wildly.

All kinds of emotions began surging into him all at once. At last, only excitement and agitation remained.

The thought that struck him back then was right. He had once suspected that Ling Tianya was his daughter, he was right!

No wonder he had a strange sense of connection with Ling Tianya. They could always understand each other, and they had no topic they couldnt talk about. He always couldnt help but dote on her.

Turns out, shes actually his daughter. His care and concern for her, how he understood her and tolerated her, was all due to the innate love he had for her as a father.

It was an instinct, a connection due to their blood ties.

At this moment, as he knew it all, Cheng Chen found himself realizing that he didnt even mind being a father, and it was only because his daughter was Ling Tianya.

As he watched Cheng Chens expression changed, Huang Long asked tentatively, Ive said all that I know, can you let me go now?

Cheng Chen suppressed his stirred up feelings, before knocking on the window. The door opened immediately.

Huang Long broke into a smile, relieved. Thanks, Ill get going then.

As Huang Long got out the car, he heard Cheng Chen ordering those men in black in the car, Call the police.

Huang Long was shocked. Why are you still calling the police? I already told you everything. You promised me, so long as I told you all I know, youll let me go!

Oh? Really? Did I promise you that? Cheng Chen gazed at Huang Long craftily, disdain clear in his eyes.

Huang Long paused. Indeed, this man hadnt explicitly said that hed let him go. He had only vaguely said, Say it then. It was he who had thought that the man had promised him and spilled the beans.

No! You cant treat me this way! If I had not bought your daughter from the trafficker back then... no one knows how they wouldve treated her! For all we know, she couldve died! How would she then be bought off by a rich family and live her life as a privileged girl? Huang Ying pried the door open, struggling to make his point.

Do you really think that she led a privileged life? Cheng Chens tone turned cold. He knew better than anyone how tough the days Ling Tianya spent in the Ling Family were. But, maybe youre right, if not for you who had bought her, she couldve been dead by now. But that isnt a reason for me to let you go unscathed.

Cheng Chen looked at Huang Long coldly, as if he were looking at a crushed ant struggling to survive.

He had never been a saint. He only wouldnt let things go if someone crossed the line. And from this moment on, this day on, anything concerning Ling Tianya would be the line he wouldnt allow anyone to cross.

Cheng Chen suddenly chuckled. There was one thing he couldnt deny: Ling Tianya and he sure was similar.

Go! Cheng Chen ordered coldly.

His underlings immediately dragged Huang Long away, closing the car door.

Soon, Cheng Chens car vanished into the darkness of the night.
