ightening slightly. She lowered her gaze to the pink high heels on the ground, remaining silent."You don't need to worry about me," the woman said, her eyes curving into a smile. "My husband will just...向晚 directly cut her off, her gaze weary and world-weary, "Stop talking."
"Zuo Wan," Zhou Miao was still trying to persuade her, "Think about it, you can't leave Meng Huishuo anyway. These are your colleagues. If you offend them, life will be even harder in the future..."
Halfway through her sentence, she covered her mouth and apologized, "I'm sorry."
"You're right, there's nothing to apologize for." Xiang Wan raised her eyes to look at her, whispering softly, "But what can I do I just don't want to forgive them."
Zhou Miao hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping herself. After much deliberation, she said, "Just think it over, and I'll return the money to those people."
Just as A-Wan was about to say hello, the dorm room door suddenly burst open with a bang. Standing in the doorway were Xiang Jian Guo and his wife, who shouldn't have been here.
Both of their faces were flushed, but Xiang JianGuo was red with anger, while Yu Jingyun was red-eyed from crying.
Upon seeing the two, Zhou Miao's eyes lit up. She quickly stood up and greeted them somewhat awkwardly, "Mr. Xiang, Mrs. Xiang, both of you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiang Jianguo went past her and slapped Xiang Wan directly.
Zhou Miao's red lips parted slightly, her eyes wide with shock at the sight.
But this slap didn't land on Xiang Wan's face. She stood barefoot on the ground, gripping Xiang Jianguo's outstretched hand, and said calmly: "Mr. Xiang hits people at every turn Is all the outward politeness just an act"
It's truly hard to imagine, this man used to treat her like a treasure, pampering her in every way. No matter what outlandish things she did to pursue He Hanchuan, he would just laugh it off and never blame her.
Now that I think about it, it wasn't necessarily true love. Maybe she just had a plan to use her marriage to the He family from the start.
Otherwise, if he truly loved her as his daughter, how could he abandon her the moment something happened
"Let go!" Xiang Jianguo roared, trying to land another slap.
But A-Wai's strength was too great, to the point where she not only couldn't deliver the slap but also found it difficult to retract her hand. She was caught in a bind, extremely awkward.
"Let go, and then let the CEO continue hitting me I'm sorry, I'm not stupid."
"You—" Xiang Jianguo gasped in rage, his empty finger pointing at her. "How could our Xiang family have such a shameless and unfilial daughter!"
Even though she told herself not to have any more hope for her dad, hearing him say this still made Xiangwan's heart ache.
She licked her dry lips. "If I remember correctly, Mr. Xiang kicked me out of the Xiang family two years ago. Strictly speaking, I'm no longer one of your Xiang family."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Jian Guo's eyes widened in fury, and he was speechless for a long while.
Beside her, Zhou Miao watched this scene unfold. She bit her lip, her eyes clouded and unreadable, as if she was struggling to contain something.
Although Siyuan is afraid of upsetting Jian Guo's heart, she rarely says things that would make him angry. But seeing him speechless with rage this time, a strange mix of pain and pleasure came over her from the subtle sense of revenge.
She looked straight at him, "And besides, Father wouldn't want a daughter like me who is shameless and heartless. And I don't want a father like you who is two-faced, puts profit above everything, cold-blooded, selfish, greedy for vanity!"
This long string of words went on and on, without a single pause.
Slap!
Yu Jingyin, with red eyes, rushed over and slapped Xiang Wan's face. "Let go of your father, and apologize to him! Is this what a daughter should say"
"I thought I wouldn't get slapped today." Xiang Wan didn't expect that her usually gentle and meek mother would come over and hit her. She chuckled self-deprecatingly, forcefully shook off Xiang Jianguo, and a layer of mist appeared in her eyes, but it quickly receded, as if it had never been there.
She was so strong that Xiang Jianguo, caught off guard, stumbled several steps and bumped into the table behind him.
The legs of the table scraped against the floor, producing a loud screeching noise. Things on the table rattled and fell to the ground, with some landing on Xiang Jianguo's person.
After being hit in the back, Jian Guo felt a sharp pain, but his first reaction was to glance at Zhou Miao beside him. He felt embarrassed and angry.
"Are you alright" Yu Jingyun's face paled as she rushed over to help her husband, "Did you hit your head Should we go to the hospital"
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face.
In the past, Yuheng would have felt heartache seeing this scene. Now, she only feels a deeper chill.
Xiang JianGuo leaned against the table, clutching his chest and gasping for breath. His heavy breaths sounded like a bellows, “You… you rebellious daughter! After serving two years in prison, you still haven't learned your lesson. You actually seduced Han Chuan and ended up being thrown out naked! You’ve disgraced our Xiang family... utterly disgraced us!!! Cough...cough...cough...cough...”
He pounded his chest and coughed violently, as if trying to cough up his lungs.
"The important thing is being thrown out naked, right If I had succeeded in seducing you, wouldn't you be begging me to go back home"
So, you came to see her today just for this To accuse her! Hmph!
Jian Guo's face flushed purple at those words, he pointed at Xiang Wan, his eyes bulging, "You—cough cough!"
"Jianguo, quickly, drink your medicine!" Yu Jingyun trembled as she took out the bottle of medicine and put it to his mouth, then habitually instructed Xiangwan, "Xiangwan, quickly pour a cup of warm water for Dad!"ven stand up, he was pushed back down by Lu Yancen."In Xiang Shao's case, it's best not to make any rash moves." Lu Yancen disliked disobedient patients, his tone wasn't very pleasant.After finishing...
