“Okay, don’t worry. I understand. Jiajia has been an obedient child all along. She will definitely stand on our side and understand us.” Ah De was willing to dote on Jiajia well in the future. After knowing this piece of news, Jiajia would definitely be happy and help them persuade Zhai Hua. With Jiajia around, Zhai Hua would become softhearted and agree to conceal today’s matter.

Father Wei always thought that Mother Wei was pretty stupid to have thought of everything from Wei De’s perspective alone and take everything for granted. The truth was they were a family, after all. He was no better compared to Mother Wei.

He felt that Jiajia couldn’t complain if Wei De didn’t care about her. When Wei De was willing to give a little paternal love to Jiajia, even if such paternal love wasn’t pure, Jiajia should feel grateful and accept readily, or rather, accept with gratitude.

It was a pity that he had forgotten Jiajia was already in junior high school and was a young adult with independent thinking ability. All along, Jiajia knew in her heart how the Wei family had treated Zhai Hua and herself. Moreover, Jiajia had personally seen Wei De and Wei Xiaomei sleeping together on the same bed. One had to know how serious this blow was to a teenager.

If not for Jiajia finding Qiao Nan and receiving comfort and guidance from an acquaintance in time, nobody would have known what kind of side effects Jiajia would suffer from in the face of such agitation. Zhai Hua and Jiajia had a tense relationship with the Wei family to begin with. Now that such a thing had happened, even if Jiajia had any bit of admiration for Wei De, she no longer held any expectations of him.

The Wei family didn’t expect that not only did Zhai Hua catch Wei De and Wei Xiaomei together in bed, but she was even more certain that Wei Wei was Wei De’s son. Since Wei De and Wei Xiaomei already had Wei Wei as a son, no matter who tried to persuade them, Zhai Hua and Jiajia could no longer accept such a family anymore.

Nobody in the Wei family knew about this situation. Father Wei and Mother Wei also couldn’t figure out where Jiajia was. Under Wei De’s guidance, Father Wei and Mother Wei realized for the first time how useful Jiajia, this granddaughter, was to the Wei family. The old couple rushed back to the Wei family, but Jiajia wasn’t around. Then, they went to the house Zhai Hua bought, but Jiajia was still nowhere to be found.

After failing to find their granddaughter at both places, Father Wei and Mother Wei were dumbfounded. Jiajia didn’t live with them, and ever since they had Wei Wei, their grandson, Father Wei and Mother Wei didn’t care for her.

All along, Mother Wei’s words weren’t pleasant. Although Father Wei didn’t say anything, his attitude toward Jiajia was the same as Mother Wei’s. Jiajia was already in junior high school. However, they didn’t know what kind of classmates or close friends Jiajia had in school.

Father Wei had no choice but to call Wei De. What was more embarrassing and helpless was that Wei De didn’t know anything at all either. Wei De obviously had more excuses than Father Wei and Mother Wei. “Dad, you know that I spent at least 364 days in the army in a year. It was already an exception that I could come home to celebrate the new year this year. How would I know what kind of close friends Jiajia has in school? On the contrary, both of you live in the same city as Jiajia and are considered to be living close to each other. Both of you really don’t have any idea at all?”

Wei De realized a shocking phenomenon for the first time. Everyone in the Wei family, including him, had neglected Jiajia too much. Nobody knew that the three of them knew about Wei Wei’s true identity. As such, not only were they more concerned about Wei Wei, but they had also neglected Jiajia. This was definitely not a good sign.

Nobody was a fool. Wei De was more worried about Jiajia than Zhai Hua. Jiajia was young and temperamental. He didn’t know if she would bear any grudges toward the Wei family because of this situation. He managed to marry Zhai Hua so easily back then because she was dissatisfied with the Zhai family since she was young.

It was his fault. He had neglected this situation. Thankfully, Jiajia wasn’t an adult yet. Hopefully, he would still have the chance to redeem himself so that Jiajia wouldn’t be like Zhai Hua in that she had no gratitude to her family who had raised her up but only felt grievances and resentment.

“I-I don’t know.” Father Wei was dumbfounded. Jiajia was his granddaughter. How was it convenient for him to care so much about her? “Ah De, what should we do now that we can’t find Jiajia? Do you think Jiajia would find Zhai Hua directly?” Or even the Zhai family?

If it was the former, Father Wei was not worried at all. As long as he promised Jiajia that they would get Zhai Hua out of the police station and not pursue the matter of her hitting others, there was no reason Jiajia would be stubborn and unreasonable over this since she was still a child with a simple mindset.

What Father Wei was afraid of was the latter. If Jiajia went to find the Zhai family directly for help, Jiajia would really become a sinner that destroyed the Wei family and Wei De, her birth father.

Zhai Hua must guarantee that she was willing to spare Wei De and ignore this matter since it wasn’t appropriate for the Zhai family to know about this too early. One had to know that Zhai Hua’s attitude was the key.

Even if the Zhai family was dissatisfied with Wei De, as long as Zhai Hua was willing to forgive Wei De and refuse to get a divorce, what can the Zhai family do? It was similar to how the Zhai family couldn’t stop Zhai Hua from marrying Wei De back then. If Zhai Hua wasn’t willing to get a divorce, the Zhai family could only stand aside.

“No. Jiajia should know what kind of impact it will have on me if she goes to find the Zhai family. She isn’t an insensible child. Dad, go with Mom to quickly find Jiajia. I think Jiajia was just frightened and thus found a place to hide. Remember to call me if anything comes up. I’ll try harder on my end as well to see if I can contact Jiajia.” Wei De kept pinching his forehead, feeling irritated.

Everything had happened at the same time, causing the matter to be so complicated and difficult to resolve. Where exactly did Jiajia, his daughter, go? Didn’t she know that the family was in a mess and that they needed her to make Zhai Hua reconcile with him?

The Wei family was like headless flies. Wei Xiaomei, who was sitting in Wei De’s ward, looked at Wei De uneasily. “Brother, did I get into trouble?”
