TSFLIP Chapter 704

Suva lifted his gaze, his eyes warm and tender as he smiled at Feng Guang.
“I had planned to bring you here myself, Feng Guang. I didn’t expect you’d come ahead of me.”

“What exactly do you mean by that?” Feng Guang wanted to pull Xiaoxiao away from his side, but she didn’t dare. He was simply too close, and Xiaoxiao was just a fragile child—if he wanted to do anything, it would be far too easy.

Suva, as if oblivious to the worry shining in her eyes, took Xiaoxiao’s hand. His thin lips curved faintly, and he said with a smile,
“Actually… I only discovered Xiaoxiao not too long ago. I thought about telling you she existed, but when I saw you had lost your memory, I was worried…”

“Worried about what?” Feng Guang’s voice chilled. “Worried that I’d recover my memories?”

Suva chuckled softly.
“Feng Guang, you misunderstood. In those days, your body hadn’t fully healed, and it wasn’t good for you to be overly emotional. That’s the only reason I kept Xiaoxiao a secret.”

“Suva, do you really think I’d believe that excuse?”

Suva stroked Xiaoxiao’s head, his expression softening even more.
“Feng Guang, haven’t you ever wondered why Xiaoxiao is so close to me?”

“Why?” Feng Guang followed his lead and asked.

Suva replied,
“In truth, I found Xiaoxiao half a year ago. But since your condition was still unstable, I left her in the human world. I would go visit her from time to time.”

“What did you say to her?”

He looked at Xiaoxiao, then at Feng Guang, and finally sighed helplessly.
“Feng Guang, do you really think the reason Xiaoxiao rejects you is because I spoke badly of you in front of her?”

“Then what else could it be? Why would she hate me?” In her mind, the answer was simple—he must have turned their daughter against her. That, too, was just another form of torment.

Suva sighed.
“Feng Guang, you’ve truly misunderstood me.”

Xiaoxiao spoke up directly,
“Daddy never said anything bad about you. I figured it out on my own. If you really loved me, then why did you leave me in the human world for so long and never come back for me?”

Xiaoxiao wasn’t like ordinary children. From the moment she was born, she carried faint memories of her surroundings. Even as an infant wrapped in swaddling, she vaguely remembered her mother’s face. That was why, when Feng Guang said she was her mother, Xiaoxiao believed it so quickly. But she also remembered—her mother had left her here and walked away.

Those hazy fragments told her one undeniable truth: she was a child her mother had abandoned.

Feng Guang could feel Xiaoxiao’s rejection, but she couldn’t answer the question. Could she tell her child that her father hadn’t wanted her to be born, so her mother had no choice but to hide her away in the human world?

No… that truth would be far too cruel for a child.

If she were only an onlooker, she could have spoken the truth with no burden. But now, she was a mother.

Her silence only made the air between them heavier, more strained.

Finally, Suva spoke.
“Xiaoxiao, you shouldn’t use such harsh words with your mother.”

The little girl stubbornly insisted,
“But I’m not wrong! I really am a child my mother abandoned!”

“Xiaoxiao.” Suva’s tone grew firmer, and the sternness in his eyes was enough to inspire instinctive fear.

Xiaoxiao was still so young. Frightened, she took a small step back from her father, yet she still lifted her chin, her eyes full of unyielding defiance as she faced her parents.

Suva arched an eyebrow at that.
Mm… this stubborn streak, this refusal to back down—it was the same as Feng Guang.
