Rebirth from the Ashes

Following closely behind, Shen Xi got out of the car and saw the neighbor in the wheelchair getting off. She happily waved her arm and greeted him. “Uncle Jin Yu.”

Jin Yu hurt his leg pretty badly a few days ago. Restricted in mobility, he had to use a wheelchair.

With a friendly smile, Jin Yu nodded at her and uttered in a thick voice, “You’re back.”

Pei Xu was mind blown. Mixed with emotions, he looked at the man before turning to Shen Xi. F*ck! No way! Was he the neighbor? Toffeecito’s Dad?

The man was good-looking and had a refined presence to him, but he was a little old for her. Sure, he looked good for his age, but the man must be at least forty!

Fu Qingxuan was first filled with a strange sense of familiarity, but the feelings were soon overtaken by rage. With cold and razor-sharp eyes, he sized up the man in the wheelchair.

So he was the neighbor?

Was this the man Meanie had a crush on? Was this the man who gave her a red packet and fireworks during the New Year?

F*ck!

Hell no!

In no way was he going to approve the relationship!

The man was too old for Meanie, and she was underaged! He had no shame for trying to rob the cradle!

Yun Jinping finally met the neighbor in the flesh after he moved in a year ago. Instead of a strange man she was expecting, the neighbor turned out to be a dashing gentleman.

Song Wenye and Yu Yuanxi had gotten out of the car in the back and found the group still standing at the entrance. Song Wenye ran up and took notice of the handsome mister in a wheelchair on the next-door driveway. She had to drool over his looks.

The handsome mister had a mature charm and appeal that were only instilled with the passing of time. This trait could not be found in youngsters.

She did not suppose the handsome mister was the father of Toffeecito’s dad?

Godd*mnit!

The whole family had quite the genes. Toffeecito’s dad was a looker, but the man did not fall behind in looks either.

Having heard cars in the driveway, Shen Zhangqing ran out and saw the man in the wheelchair next door. His eyes reflected wary.

Jin Yu was surprised to bump into the girl bringing home friends. He recognized the woman standing with her and the man who came out of the house. They were her parents. He nodded at Shen Zhangqing. “Hello, Mr. Shen.”

Shen Zhangqing stared at him for a while until he was able to let go of his inhibition. He greeted him with a smile. “Hello.”

The neighbor was really an older mister about his age. The man looked at his daughter as a caring elder would to a child.

It turned out Shen Zhangqing was overthinking the situation. He should have trusted his daughter was obedient enough not to date behind his back.

Pei Xu tugged at Song Wenye and raised his brows to ask with his eyes. ‘Is he Toffeecito’s dad?’

Song Wenye shook her head and gave him a look to answer ‘no.’

Toffeecito’s dad was practically the reincarnation of Adonis. Although she only met him once, she was sure that it was not this handsome mister.

She could tell that Toffeecito’s dad was not that old, at most twenty-odd years old.

The group introduced themselves to Jin Yu.

Fu Qingxuan, on the other hand, gave Jin Yu a dirty look the whole time.

Looking at the wheelchair-bound young man, Jin Yu let out a warm smile at him while feeling sorry and sympathetic.

The young man looked familiar. Did he have trouble with his legs like Li Yuan?

Faced with a smile, Fu Qingxuan was once again hit with a strange feeling. Sudden grief filled his senses, overtaking his every being.
