章節 263: Chapter 263 : Ties (2)

Head Eunuch Wang appeared not long afterward to pick Xie Jianzhi up.

"His Majesty is waiting to see Your Highness in his study," the old eunuch said. His words revealed nothing about the Heavenly Emperor's current state of mind.

Xie Jianzhi's steps echoed along the corridor as he walked behind Head Eunuch Wang. The head eunuch himself did not make any noise when he moved.

Xie Jianzhi held his breath and tried his best to calm down.

His father.

He was going to meet his father for the first time.

Xie Jianzhi did not know what he expected. Considering that this alpha abandoned him and his mother when he was only three years old, it might be unreasonable to expect a warm hug and loving words.

Xie Jianzhi tightened his fists so hard that his fingernails dug into his palms.

But he was the only alpha son this father had!

Surely that must mean something, right?

Surely his father would welcome him with open arms?
