Chapter 2018: The Kid Leveled Up

Ding Yuejia looked up at Le Tian and whispered, “Mom, I’m scared…”

Le Tian wanted to cry but nothing came out. She was afraid too.

Le Tian carefully closed the door and led Ding Yuejia inside without making a sound. This was too much. What did this have to do with them?

“Dad, Mom, Mr. Ding, Mrs. Ding.” Le Tian did not dare to breathe loudly, afraid that her father would jump over and slap her.

“Come over here now. Why are you still standing there?” Le Tian’s father questioned her sternly.

Le Tian was startled for a moment. Ding Yuejia hugged her legs tightly, not daring to let go. He was afraid that Grandpa Le would scare him to death the second he let go.

Both his grandpas were so scary today.

“What’s going on? How long have you two known each other? Look at how old your child is already! If the news never reported it, are you planning to keep it a secret forever?” Le Tian’s mother looked at her daughter unhappily.

Le Tian stood beside Ding Junqi and looked at the marks on his back. She could imagine the pain past the suit that he wore.

She did not know whether she should stand or kneel.

“I’m not trying to hide this from you guys intentionally. I just… don’t know how to tell you.”

“What’s so hard about that? I don’t believe there’s anything that can’t be explained properly in this world.” Le Tian’s mother obviously thought that her daughter giving a perfunctory answer to dismiss her. Her anger rose.

“As I said, there’s no way…”

“It’s my fault. My career was still on the rise all those years back then, so I hid this from everyone,” Ding Junqi said solemnly as he held Le Tian’s wrist.

Le Tian, “…”

What the hell was he talking about?

“I knew it must be you.” Ding Haonan got up, raised his crutch, and hit Ding Junqi again.

Le Tian reached out to cover Ding Yuejia’s eyes. She could feel the pain from the sounds of that crutch landing.

“How could you do such a foolish thing? For the sake of your career, how dare you mistreat the young lady like this?” Mrs. Ding asked in a low voice. She was obviously angry at him too.

Ding Junqi gritted his teeth and allowed his father to continue bashing him. His hand still held Le Tian’s wrist tightly, an act that refrained her from speaking.

What?

Parallel space?

They would not understand.

Instead of that, why not use the easiest way out and push all the problems onto him?

“Ding Junqi, is this something a human should do?” Ding Haonan was still battering Ding Junqi down.

Le Tian did not dare to look at them, but even hearing the thuds on Ding Junqi’s body hurt her.

“Um, Mr. Ding—” Le Tian’s mother could not stand it anymore and interrupted. “Mr. Ding, about this—” As she spoke, Le Tian’s mother walked to her daughter’s side and gave her a forceful tug.

Le Tian, “…”

“This has nothing to do with Le Tian. It’s my fault,” Ding Junqi hissed through gritted teeth. Every breath that escaped from his mouth sounded like it was getting forced out from the pain.

Le Tian was furious. So, what did this have anything to do with them?

It was neither her fault nor Ding Junqi’s fault.

Le Tian handed Ding Yuejia to her mother and knelt down next to Ding Junqi. “If you wish to hit him, you should hit me too. We gave birth to the child, so the problem is ours.”

Of course, Ding Haonan would not hit Le Tian. Firstly, he was not in any position to do so; secondly, he had no right to do so. He could not hit someone else’s daughter. Besides, it was the girl who had been at the short end of the stick.

“Grandpa, do you hate me? You don’t want me anymore, do you?” Ding Yuejia leaned against Le Tian’s mother and moaned pitifully.

Ding Haonan, “…”

Le Tian’s father, “…”
