However, there was something even more unbelievable to him.

Two days after Cheng Jia drowned, Yuan Li brought Mi Tu to the river. Pointing at the river, she said that she had helped her solve the problem of Cheng Jia. From now on, Cheng Xiaolong would only have her as his daughter, and everything that Cheng Xiaolong had would belong to her.

It was at this time that Cheng Jia found out that Yuan Li and her stepsister brought by her stepmother had known each other for a long time, and even Yuan Li's pursuit of her was instigated by Mi Tu, because Mi Tu knew that Cheng Xiaolong looked down on Yuan Li, and she wanted to make the friction between Cheng Jia and her daughter accumulate and finally turn against each other!

She was jealous that Cheng Jia had such a good-tempered father, and she just wanted Cheng Xiaolong to cultivate her with all his strength!

After Cheng Jia and Yuan Li got together, Mi Tu became even more aggressive, telling Yuan Li more than once that he could kill Cheng Jia without anyone noticing. Of course, she may have given Yuan Li a lot of benefits, such as helping him pass the doctoral exam and gain a firm foothold in the industry.

Cheng Jia's soul floated on the water, watching Mitu smile smugly, watching Mitu and Yuan Li imagine their bright future, watching them kiss shamelessly.

Even when Cheng Jia spoke of this at this moment, he was gritting his teeth.

Cheng Xiaolong was so shocked that even his tears stopped. "How is this possible, Jiajia, are you mistaken?"

Cheng Jia looked at her father who only cared about academic research, and felt very disappointed. She had already said that the mother and daughter had bad intentions, but he just didn't believe it!

Ever since her father married this stepmother, her relationship with her father has been getting worse day by day. Is it just because she has a too strong personality? This is inevitably due to the handiwork of her stepmother.

"If you don't believe me, go find the papers Yuan Li published before. If there is one paper he published after I left that doesn't have your name on it, I will admit that I framed the mother and daughter!"

After Cheng Jia finished speaking, she was too lazy to say anything more to her father and turned and left. Cheng Xiaolong ran to chase her, but he couldn't catch up with her. He could only watch his daughter's back disappear into the fog.

"Jiajia!"

Cheng Xiaolong suddenly woke up, looked up and saw that the swing was nowhere to be found. He was still sitting at his desk.

The room was dark, with only a single light on his desk, illuminating everything on the table clearly.

He touched his face and found that it was covered with tears. He realized that it was just a dream and felt lost.

During the days since his daughter left, he often dreamed about her. But he frowned and thought about the dream just now. The scene and feeling in the dream were very real. And unlike the previous dreams where his daughter yelled at him or cried alone, this time his daughter was much more rational.

He recalled what his daughter said in the dream, and his brows furrowed more and more. If he was told that Yuan Li was the kind of person who could harm his daughter, he would believe it. But Mitu was such a well-behaved child, how could she do such a harmful thing!

It was already late at night, and his low scream did not wake up his wife in the bedroom. The cold night wind blew in, making him shiver.

He turned around and found that the window was open, but he had just closed it!

Cheng Xiaolong stared at the window with a dazed look on his face.

"Jiajia?"

For a moment, tears rolled down again.

Cheng Xiaolong's eyes were filled with tears and his heart was filled with aching pain. It took him a long time to calm down.

With trembling hands, he opened the computer beside him, searched the well-known website, found Yuan Li's paper, and looked for the signature on it.

The more he looked, the more agitated his calming mood became, and his chest rose and fell.

Because his name appeared on all of Yuan Li's papers in the past six months, but he did not remember having revised Yuan Li's papers, nor had he ever allowed him to write his name on his papers!

The words of his daughter in the dream echoed in his ears. Yuan Li did not come to him to revise her papers, but Mitu often asked him to revise his papers. It turned out that Mitu asked him to revise not only her papers, but also Yuan Li's!

Cheng Xiaolong sat at his desk all night. He couldn't understand why Mi Tu did this. She knew that she hated Yuan Li, and she was so sensible!

When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into the room through the window, Mi Fang walked out of the bedroom.

Seeing Cheng Xiaolong still sitting at the desk, she came over and asked with concern: "Old Cheng, did you not sleep all night?"

Cheng Xiaolong looked at Mi Fang. When his wife died of illness, he could not take good care of his daughter, so he found a nanny, who was Mi Fang.

Mi Fang took good care of his daughter, so he didn't have to worry about anything. Later, a few students celebrated his birthday, and he drank a few more glasses. After returning home, he went to bed early. Who knew that when he woke up the next day, he found someone next to him, it was Mi Fang.

Both of them were naked, but he had no memory of what happened the night before. After waking up, Mi Fang did not chase him to ask him to take responsibility, but continued to take care of her daughter carefully, but she would try to avoid him and avoid too much contact with him.

He felt more and more guilty, and finally proposed to marry Mi Fang. After all, both of them had lost their other half, and although each of them had a daughter, Mi Fang had such a good personality, they would definitely be able to form a happy family.

After marriage, the daughter could not accept that the nanny became her stepmother. She felt that she had betrayed her mother and made things difficult for Mi Fang and Mi Tu everywhere. However, Mi Fang never cared about her daughter and was only more attentive to her than before.

Even if he was hurt by his daughter, he would just cry alone in the bedroom. Therefore, every time he encountered a quarrel between his daughter and her mother and daughter, he would stand on the side of Mi Fang and her daughter, thinking that they were wronged.

But now, he felt that he had to look at this mother and daughter in a new light.

"Is Mitu going home today?"

Instead of answering Mi Fang's question, he asked.

Mi Tu moved out two years ago because Cheng Jia always made things difficult for her. She felt that she was an outsider in this family and should not live here. But Mi Fang was worried about her living alone, so after rejecting several rental houses she had chosen, she planned to buy her a house in a well-secured community.

Of course, she didn't ask Cheng Xiaolong to take the money, and she didn't even tell him. It was only when Cheng Xiaolong came home early that he found her worried about the bank card. After asking him about it, Cheng Xiaolong felt guilty.

Originally, the two of them formed a family. The other person took care of her daughter and raised her up healthily, but the other person's daughter was forced away by her own daughter. She felt guilty no matter how she said it.

But he was not very rich, and he scraped together enough money to buy a small two-bedroom apartment of 80 or 90 square meters in the community chosen by Mi Fang. However, a small two-bedroom apartment was enough for Mitu alone.

Because of buying a house for Mitu, Cheng Xiaolong and Cheng Jia had a big fight and almost severed their father-daughter relationship.

"I don't know, she didn't tell me. But she should come back. You know that child is filial and comes back to see you every weekend."

Mi Fang said softly, and then advised Cheng Xiaolong to go to sleep quickly to avoid overexerting himself.

Cheng Xiaolong went to the bedroom as he was told, but he couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard he lay on the bed. Suddenly, he remembered what his daughter said when they had an argument.

She said that Mi Fang and her daughter always acted non-competitive and compromised, but over the years, they had received so many benefits and advantages from him.
