Chapter 61: Prison Visit Declined
Daddy?
Wen Shuyue suddenly realized something and looked up subconsciously at He Siming who held her up. He took a bland glance at her and loosened his hand.
His poker face made Wen Shuyue a little upset, but she returned to be normal soon and talked to Wen Baobao with a smile.
“Since Shuyue is here, let us help her find her father together.”
Lin Lin broke the silence and asked Wen Shuyue to tell them her father’s information.
At first, Wen Shuyue felt a little awkward but then she devoted to the seeking of her father wholeheartedly.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
It had to be mentioned that He Siming had wide connections indeed. He managed to locate Wen Long in quite a short time. Wen Long was kept in a village prison, specially designed for felons. Wen Shuyue never expected her father was kept in that prison.
“Thank you, Mr. He. When I find my father, I will extend my gratitude to you personally.”
Wen Shuyue pulled Lin Lin to leave, not daring to stay here any longer.
“Hey! I’m not done yet. What’s the rush?”
Reluctant to leave, Lin Lin took a glance at He Siming. Before today, Lin Lin merely liked He Siming and admired him; but now, she was crazy about him.
All Wen Shuyue cared about now was nothing but her father. She travelled a long way and asked for directions many times with Lin Lin before reaching the destination.
The village prison was far more terrible than what they thought. Judging from the guarder’s awful dwelling condition, the condition of the prison must be worse.
“Don’t worry. I’m sure your father is fine.”
Lin Lin comforted Wen Shuyue, patting her by the back.
Wen Shuyue nodded and walked towards the entrance, held by Lin Lin. Wen Shuyue asked the guarder, “Excuse me, I’m looking for a prisoner called Wen Long.”
“Wen Long? How come so many people have visited him lately? What’s the relationship between you and him?”
The guarder looked at Wen Shuyue unfriendly with a frown.
“Father and daughter. Can I meet him?”
Wen Shuyue answered with a touch of expectation, concern and fear.
Wen Shuyue didn’t dare to imagine what her vigorous father was like after the prison life or to see his old face, all of which reminded her that how terrible she was as a daughter.
If she had made a thorough investigation, she should have known her father was still alive. It was all her fault that she trusted people so easily that she didn’t know her father was alive until lately.
“Daughter? He has been here for 3 or 4 years, but I’ve never seen his daughter. Are you really his daughter?”
The guarder sneered and obviously didn’t believe Wen Shuyue.
Lin Lin was always impatient, so the guarder’s words made her lose patience instantly. Pointing at the guarder, she shouted, “Do we look like liars? Just stop stalling. What’s wrong that a daughter visits her father? Plus, it’s none of your business. I…”
“Enough, Lin Lin.”
Wen Shuyue stopped Lin Lin in case Lin Lin made things worse.
But it was too late. With a grim look, the guarder waved at them and pushed them outside.
It was a great shock for Wen Shuyue to be turned down in the first prison visit. They tried other ways, but the guarder still kept them out of the prison and even denied Wen Long had a daughter. In a word, the guarder refused to let them in no matter what.
“Damn it! We’ve been here for hours. Even God will be touched by our sincerity. Has he lost his mind? For what reason can he stop us from getting in?”
Pissed off by the guarder, Lin Lin cursed on the road.
Looking worried, Wen Shuyue was anxious to know the whole story and who the other visitors were.
“We should ask Mr. He for help this time. If he’s here with us, I don’t believe they will dare to stop us. Humph!”
Lin Lin kept talking to herself and called He Siming immediately.
“No…”
Wen Shuyue came to her senses and stopped Lin Lin, but Lin Lin already pressed the connection button and the phone was connected in no time.
Wen Shuyue was rendered speechless with the corner of her mouth twitched involuntarily, impressed by Lin Lin’s rapid reaction.
When He Siming spoke, Lin Lin put on a gloomy look. She stole a glance at Wen Shuyue several times but soon shifted her eyes, which made Wen Shuyue even more worried.
After Lin Lin hung up, Wen Shuyue seized the chance and asked, “What is it? What did He Siming say?”
“He said…” Lin Lin hesitated for a while before telling the truth. “There are doubts in your father’s case, which seems to have been rigged. The guarder won’t let you meet your father even if you linger here.”
“What should I do then?”
Wen Shuyue almost stamped her feet with anxiety. She finally made it to where her father was but still failed to see her father. It was more torturing for her than to kill her.
Lin Lin shook her head helplessly and comforted Wen Shuyue by patting her on the shoulder.
Eventually, they had no choice but to leave. When they got back to the city, Wen Shuyue headed to He Siming while Lin Lin left her because Lin Lin’s friend needed help.
Most employees in Mannis had met Wen Shuyue before and known more about her from gossips between He Siming and her.
When Wen Shuyue entered the office, all employees turned to her. They made her nervous but she suppressed her emotions and kept going towards He Siming’s office with her chin up.
“Oh, Miss Wen. I’m afraid you don’t have an appointment, do you?”
When Wen Shuyue reached the door of He Siming’s office, she saw Guan Yue walking to her in a panic.
“It’s something urgent. Is it a bad timing?”
Wen Shuyue perceived something wrong, but she didn’t bother to think what it was. All she wanted was to meet He Siming and tell him what had happened.
Looking obviously unnatural, Guan Yue kept shifting his gaze and remained silent hesitantly for a long time.
Wen Shuyue had no more patience to wait and asked, “What’s wrong? Mr. He is not in the office, is he?”
“Yes, but he…”
“Oh, Mingming, you can’t do this to me. You promised to hang out with me when I come back. You have to go out with me now. If you don’t, I’ll be mad at you.”
There rang a cutesy female voice when the door was suddenly opened.
