suddenly shifted and converged on another woman. Soon, it gathered on other women as well, changing targets five or six times before finally stopping."Just now, I was playing a little joke with all...Chapter 231

Time flies like an arrow. Before I knew it, July arrived. The summer heat in Jiangzhou was intense and dry, especially in the past half month. Every day was sunny with clear skies, making the outside world feel like a giant oven.

And Qin Dayong lost to Yang Chen, which happened exactly half a month ago.

Yang Chen originally thought that Qin Dayong would go find Qin Xi and Qin Yi, but to his surprise, he hasn't appeared since the day they left Wangzhe City.

Jiangzhou City, People's Square.

The crimson sun slowly rose in the morning, casting countless soft rays on every corner of the earth.

Lying on a bench in the corner of the square, Qin Dayong seemed to feel the sunlight. He rubbed his eyes and slowly sat up, stretching his body.

He came to the artificial lake at the edge of the square, washed his face twice, and looked at the weathered face reflected on the water. His heart was filled with sadness. At this moment, he remembered a lot of things.

Especially his two daughters, ever since he was driven out of the company by the Qin family, he hasn't looked for a job again, but his two daughters have never said a word to him, instead, they give him enough living expenses every month, allowing him to enjoy life without any burden.

She was such an outstanding daughter, yet he had gambled her away. Especially when he recalled the words spoken by the masked man, that he would never see Qin Xi again from then on.

If he could exchange his own life for Qin Xi's freedom, he would not hesitate at all.

For the past two weeks, he has gone to look for work every day, but no company wants him. He even went to small restaurants on the street, but no one would hire him.

Unknowingly, his face was already covered in tears, each drop falling into the artificial lake.

He could finally no longer suppress his pain, and burst into tears.

Crying was just a release of emotion. After crying his fill, Qin Dayong rinsed his face with lake water and stood up again.

"Xiao Xi, Daddy will definitely find you!"

The only thing keeping him going now was the thought of getting back on his feet, working hard to make money, and finding a way to get Qin Xi back her freedom.

For the rest of his life, he would no longer live for himself, but for his two daughters!

Under the scorching sun, there were not many pedestrians on the street. Even those who were there carried umbrellas to shield themselves from the heat.

For many days he was unable to eat his fill, which caused him to lose weight. His face had only a sickly pallor, and his lips were white with dryness.

His hair had grown long, and his beard was much longer. He hadn't changed his clothes in half a month, and there was a stale smell all over him. He looked quite disheveled, and even passersby would frown and hold their noses as they kept their distance.

But at this moment, he seemed to feel nothing. He walked tall and straight with determination in his eyes, occasionally glancing at the small advertisements on the nearby telephone pole, hoping to find a job.

"Bang!"

He was looking around, scanning for recruitment advertisements, when he suddenly bumped into a car parked in front of him.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it wasn't intentional."

Qin Dayong looked frightened and hurriedly apologized.

Just then, the car window rolled down, and a familiar face appeared.

"Yang Chen!"

Qin Dayong was a little surprised, but soon, a look of guilt appeared on his face. He looked at Yang Chen with red eyes and said, "Yang Chen, I'm sorry, Dad was wrong. I lost Xiaoxi to someone else."

He'd been briefed on all the recent developments every day, so Qin Dayong's reaction didn't surprise him at all.

"But rest assured, I will definitely work hard to earn money. Even if I have to travel to the ends of the earth, I will find Xiaoxi and restore her freedom."

Suddenly, he said with determination. After saying that, he turned and left, not showing any intention of asking Yang Chen for money.ical and mental development."Yang Chen was dumbfounded, he didn't react to Qin Dayong's words immediately. Before he could ask, Qin Dayong had already gotten out of the car and left."Dad, what is he s...
