Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets novel Chapter 345

Chapter 345: Chapter 345: I Was Wrong Before

Meng Family in Jing City.

Mr. Meng was looking at the letter sent from Wangjiang County and thought it was a postcard from Meng Yanzhi, feeling touched that the child was being filial.

Mr. Meng cheerfully opened the envelope, only to find a photograph. In the photograph, Meng Yanzhi and a potbellied man stood side by side, smiling at each other.

"Who is this?" Mr. Meng curiously looked at the potbellied man and asked Qu Feng, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, "Do you recognize this person? Why would Yanzhi send this photo?"

"I don’t recognize him." Qu Feng looked carefully and shook his head, then asked, "Mr. Meng, shall we investigate this?"

"Strange." Mr. Meng had sharp eyes and flipped the envelope inside out, but there was nothing in it except for this letter.

"Eh." Qu Feng suddenly lowered his head, saying, "There seems to be writing on the back of this photo."

On the back of the photo were elegant characters.

They revealed the identities of Meng Yanzhi and the other man.

Those few short words shocked Mr. Meng. He slammed the photo onto the table, gritting his teeth, "Qu Feng, go check where Meng Yanzhi has gone to."

Usually, he would affectionately call out ’Yanzhi, Yanzhi’. It was only when he was angry that Mr. Meng would call out Meng Yanzhi’s full name.

"Yes." Qu Feng responded and immediately left.

An hour later, lunchtime had arrived.

The housemaid asked Mr. Meng if it was time to start the meal.

Instead of answering, Mr. Meng asked, "Has Qu Feng returned yet?"

"Not yet," the housemaid answered.

"Then we’ll wait," Mr. Meng sat upright in the living room. Ever since he saw that letter and that photo, Mr. Meng had been sitting straight with a stern face, maintaining one posture.

The food had gotten cold, then heated up again. Every so often, Mr. Meng would ask, "Has Qu Feng come back?"

"Not yet," the housemaid didn’t even know how many times she had answered.

Not until the evening did the housemaid happily say, "Mr. Meng, Qu Feng has returned, I will bring the dishes out."

Having not eaten a meal all day, the housemaid had already prepared for dinner in advance.

Mr. Meng looked anxious, but still sat in his chair. However, his eager eyes had already betrayed his inner thoughts.

"Mr. Meng, I’ve found out," Qu Feng returned with the investigated information, carefully placing the documents in front of Mr. Meng.

Mr. Meng snatched the documents from Qu Feng’s hands and read every word carefully.

Five minutes later, after going through the data three times, Mr. Meng slammed the documents onto the table with a ’snap’. He flung the ashtray next to him onto the floor in rage and shouted, "Call him, tell him to come back to me immediately."

Wangjiang County, Tang Family.

Lunch was sumptuous, and everyone was joyously as if the incident from the morning had never happened.

Tang Yue took Bai Qing to the clothing factory.

Tang Jun followed to find Zhu Yuanchao. Seeing how formidable Bai Qing was, even as a delicate girl, Tang Jun felt deeply challenged. He was determined to use the holiday period to train and strengthen his own body; otherwise, how could he protect his sister?

The Tang Family wasn’t home, so Lian He thought of trying his luck at the garment factory.

Lian He stood not far from the garment factory, thinking that if Tang Yue came out, he would be able to see her.

At this time, Lian He was completely unaware that this scene was all witnessed by Xiang Yazhi.

After receiving the message, Xiang Yazhi had rushed overnight to Wangjiang County. Hearing that Lian He had gone to the Tang Family’s house several times, Xiang Yazhi’s face turned with rage. She had someone secretly track Lian He’s movements, following him all the way here.

An hour later, Tang Yue and Bai Qing came out.

"Xiao Yue," Lian He stepped forward excitedly.

Tang Yue’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, pulling Bai Qing away on a detour.

Lian He’s face fell, and then he followed, saying, "Xiao Yue, whether you acknowledge it or not, I am your biological father."

Nearby, Xiang Yazhi pretended to pass by. Upon hearing Lian He’s words, she almost leaped out to have a life-and-death struggle with Lian He.

Xiang Yazhi suppressed the anger in her heart and continued walking slowly, holding a newspaper as if she were mesmerized by it, her pace leisurely.

Bai Qing stood beside Tang Yue, guarding against Lian He approaching suddenly.

"Mr. Lian, do you deserve it?" Tang Yue looked coldly at Lian He. In the past life, he never appeared, in this life, there was no need for him to appear either.

Leaving mom, it wasn’t even a year, maybe only a few months, before he fathered Lian Qingyang. What was the point of such a scum father coming back now?

Lian He’s face turned purplish, his lips trembling as he tried to speak, but he didn’t know what he could argue against. He had never raised Tang Yue for a single day from childhood to adulthood; indeed, he didn’t deserve it.

"Xiao Yue, I know I was wrong in the past," Lian He took a deep breath, over the years, the Lian Family’s business flourished, and wherever he, Lian He, went, he was surrounded by adulation.
