Xiao Guan arrived at DuXing Hospital half an hour later after he texted Xiao Mei.

When he arrived at the room where Xiao Mei was currently resting, MinDe was nowhere to be seen.

"Xiao Mei..."

Xiao Guan looked at his daughter who was lying on the bed.

"Dad, you're here?"

Xiao Mei smiled at him.

*cough*

Xiao Guan cleared his throat before walking inside. He directly sat on the bed and placed his hands on her.

"How are you? Are you okay? Why are you hospitalized, ahhh? You should have informed me a while ago."

Xiao Guan sounded so concerned about Xiao Mei's health.

Although she knew that her father only showed her his fake kindness, Xiao Mei still could not help but feel happy when he asked those questions.

"Mmm.. I'm fine... Dad, I'm sorry that I was not able to see you. I fainted and I just woke up a moment ago."

"It's okay... It's okay... I'm not angry.. Dad also wants to apologize about what happened few days ago.."

He affectionately patted her hands.

Xiao Mei smiled and nodded but she did not say anything.

Xiao Guan felt embarrassed. He did not know what to say anymore to prolong their conversation.

Since Xiao Mei only smiled, Xiao Guan was forced to continue talking.

When he was not able to say anything after a few minutes, the air suddenly turned awkward.

Xiao Mei was sure to herself that Xiao Guan visited the hospital because he wanted something from her.

*cough*

*cough*

When Xiao Guan could not tolerate the silence any longer, he decided to directly ask Xiao Mei.

"Ah Mei, have you forgiven Dad?"

Xiao Mei nodded but her heart suddenly felt vexed.

"Then can you help me? You see, the selection for the next head of our clan is almost over. Once your grandfather returns, he will publicly announce the successor.

Ah Mei ahh... In these past few years, Dad worked so hard for the company. Since you captured the heart of Lu Family's Second Young Master, your status within the Lu Family is definitely not low, can you speak with Lu MinDe and ask him to help me in achieving my goal to become the family head?

Once I become the next Patriarch, your status will also alleviate. Although, it is not on par with Second Young Master Lu's status, as long as you give birth to a son, the title of Second Young Mistress will definitely fall in your hands.

Ah Mei ahh.. You are my daughter. Dad only wanted to help you. So what can you say? Can you help me convince Second Young Master Lu?"

Xiao Guan's eyes were full of expectations.

Xiao Mei closed her eyes and smiled painfully.

"So as your daughter, I have to convince MinDe to support you?"

Xiao Guan Nodded.

"Of course!! It's your duty as my daughter!! Ahh! That's right... Ah Mei ahh... Your grandfather called few minutes ago.. he--he said that I can no longer participate in the selection.. can you--- can you he----"
