"Wanqing, I..." Ling Chen looked at Nanrong Wanqing, unsure of what to say for a moment.
"Why are you hiding it from me?"
Faced with Nanrong Wanqing's questioning, Ling Chen pondered for a moment before saying, "Wanqing, it's not that I intended to keep it from you, it's just...some things I fear you can't accept right away. After all, these matters are too complicated, you..."
"What about me? He's my father; shouldn't I know about his affairs?"
Seeing Nanrong Wanqing's growing agitation, Ling Chen took her small hand into his larger one and said, "I know you'll be angry with me, and I don't want to say that I did this for your own good. From my perspective, doing this seemed like the best approach, but I never considered your feelings, which is my mistake."
"My father...where is he? Can you take me to see him?"
