It was his father-in-law, Xu Xuefeng’s voice.

“Hello, dad… are Xinrong and Wanwan at your place?” Jiang Bei tried his best to make his voice sound natural.

However, even though he tried his best, he was still trembling slightly.

“Yes, what’s the matter?”

“It’s Saturday today. I didn’t see Xinrong when I went home, so I thought I’d ask you,” Jiang Bei said softly.

“Okay.”

“Dad… can you let Xinrong answer the phone? I have something to tell her,” Jiang Bei asked.

There was silence.

“Grandpa, is it daddy?”

Suddenly, Wanwan’s childish voice entered into his ears through the receiver.

“Grandpa, I want to talk to daddy, I want to talk to daddy!”

“Daddy, is that you?” Wanwan finally won and took the receiver.

“Yes, it’s me…” Jiang Bei said in agony, but he didn’t let it show.

“Daddy, why aren’t you talking?”

“I am fine.” Jiang Bei covered the speaker and panted heavily. After he recovered a little, he asked, “Why did you go to Grandma’s house today? I planned to give you a surprise tonight.”

“Mommy’s going to work today… Mommy sent me to grandma’s house in the morning.”

“Mommy said that I would be bored if no one was there. Actually, I wouldn’t be bored. I’d paint by myself.”

He didn’t know that Xingrong had work today. Jiang Bei’s guilt surged again.

“Daddy, what surprise are you going to give me? Oh right, it’s Children’s Day on June 1st. Can you take me to the park?”

“Yes, of course!” Jiang Bei answered confidently.

“Yes!” Wanwan instantly laughed out loud and then shouted, “Mommy, it’s daddy! Aren’t you going to talk to him?”

“He said that he will spend Children’s Day with me on June 1st and take me to the park!”

At this moment, he heard the sounds of footsteps.

The next moment, Xu Xinrong’s cold voice came from the phone. “Jiangbei, is it fun to lie to children?”

“Have you ever spent time with her on her birthday or Children’s Day?”

“You left this morning, right? Did you just come back? Why? Did you run out of money? You can’t find me so you can’t get money?”

“Hmph…” Xu Xinrong took a deep breath and suddenly said, “Wanwan and I are staying at my parents’ house tonight. They have to go to work on Monday. I’ll leave Wanwan with you for the day.”

“Jiang Bei, this is the last time I’ll trouble you, okay?”

“Xinrong… I know I’m wrong. Really, I…” Jiang Bei felt like there was a fishbone stuck in his throat. He didn’t know how to explain it. His image as a scumbag wouldn’t be completely destroyed in one day.

The pain in his stomach also made it so difficult for him to say a complete sentence.

However, his speechlessness was extremely similar to the sorry state he was in when his lie was exposed.

“Mommy, daddy just promised me.” Wanwan’s tender voice came from the phone. It was weak, as if she was crying.

“Didn’t he make enough promises? Let’s see if he will take you to the park on Monday!” Xu Xinrong said coldly.

“Mommy…”

At this moment, Wanwan’s crying was also heard.

It was so clear.

Along with Xu Xinrong’s soft sobbing, she seemed to be comforting Wanwan. “It’s my fault. I made a mistake. Wanwan, be good, don’t cry anymore. I am sorry…”

The phone was suddenly hung up.

Jiang Bei curled up on the bench. Tears gushed out and fell to the ground.

He did not feel wronged, he only felt guilty…

He only thought that today was Saturday and that it was the opening day of a mall. However, he had forgotten that Xu Xinrong had to work today, so she left Wanwan to her grandparents.

No matter how sensible and obedient Wanwan was, how could she stay at home alone for an entire day?

She was still so young, she was not even four years old.

“Ah! ! !” Jiang Bei screamed in pain. This pain in the damn stomach made it impossible for him to stand.

The physical pain was nothing, but the pain in his heart was really unbearable!

He had gone back in time, with a passion and a firm heart. He wanted to redeem himself and take good care of his wife and daughter.

But what had he done!

He had abandoned his daughter.

Yes! He had abandoned his daughter!

Wanwan’s cries seemed to still be echoing in his ears, as well as Xu Xinrong’s cold voice.

Jiang Bei’s vision gradually blurred, and he slowly lost consciousness.

He did not know when, but he finally fell asleep in the pain.

That night, he woke up several times in his dreams.

However, because of the pain in his body, he could not move.

His cramping stomach seemed to be protesting. While he was in a daze, Jiang Bei fell asleep again.

He was powerless to save his wife and daughter. He could not prove that he had changed. He could not even stand up.

“What should I do? Wanwan, Xinrong…”

Jiang Bei murmured and called out softly for almost the entire night..
