President, Please Be Careful

“You are old enough and think you can talk back to your father now, yes ?!” Zhao Shuncheng's entire body seethed in anger when he saw Zhao Youxi's arrogant appearance.

It is a fact that the same sexes repel each other, whereas the opposite sex attracts each other. Zhao Youxi's character was very similar to Zhao Shuncheng's.

Most of the time, Zhao Shuncheng was happy to see that Zhao Youxi was similar to himself and sighed due to the fact that she was worthy of being his daughter.

However, when it came to quarrels, the two equally grumpy people were put together, and the situation would definitely not get any better. Instead, it will only intensify.

Zhao Shuncheng widened his eyes. He pointed at Zhao Youxi and cursed, “Idiot is useless?! You are a useless idiot in the eyes of others! Popular and much welcomed by others, huh?! Are you sure you are popular?! When you were kicked out by Youulin, why were none of your close friends and colleagues asking for help for you?!”

Zhao Shuncheng's words hit Zhao Youxi in a painful place. Indeed, Zhao Youxi thought she was popular in the company. However, the reality was, when he was expelled from the Zhao Enterprise by Zhao Youlin, no one had ever stepped up for him, nor was there anything good to say about him. Because of that, Zhao Youxi had suffered a tremendous setback, and her pride was hurt. At the same time, he must have hated Zhao Youlin even more.

Meanwhile, Zhao Shuncheng was unaware that Zhao Youxi's expression suddenly darkened. With someone as valuable as Zhao Youlin to him, he found Zhao Youxi to be extremely annoying since she was the reason she had to go and meet her former master for him, and now, she was even talking back to him.

He was so angry that he said, "If only you were like Zhao Youlin who could save me from worrying about you so much, why should I be so angry?!"

Right after Zhao Shuncheng spoke, Li Hongyu and Zhao Youxi's expressions instantly changed. Zhao Youxi's change in expression was caused by anger, while Li Hongyu's expression was in shock. He wondered when Zhao Shuncheng had ever developed such a line of thought in his mind.

He actually compared the virgin to Zhao Youxi. The worst part was, he thought Zhao Youxi was inferior to the girl! It shouldn't be like this!

It shouldn't be like this! Li Hongyu was thrown into confusion for a moment. At the moment he looked up, he saw Zhao Youxi's face turn black as he curled, "If you really think that ..."

"Youxi, stop!" Li Hongyu interrupted Zhao Youxi to continue her curse.

Zhao Youxi's eyes were wide open. He had opened his mouth and was about to scold her, but had to swallow her back. He pouted his lips and gave up for now. However, the hatred growing from the bottom of his heart had not disappeared.

Li Hongyu's expression looked dark. However, he knew very well in his heart that a few words could be spoken, while a few words should not be spoken even if it cost him his life.

After living with Zhao Shuncheng for so many years, how could Li Hongyu not understand his character like the back of his hand? In truth, Zhao Shuncheng was someone who feared the strong and oppressed the weak. However, most of the time, he only did this to outsiders. If you provoke him at home, he will not care whether you have a firm attitude or not. He would do everything anyone could imagine. He was one of those fierce people at home, but useless outside.

Precisely because Zhao Shuncheng's character was afraid of the strong, bullying the weak, Li Hongyu had planned everything step by step by persuading Zhao Shuncheng to side with him against Youlin's birth mother.

Zhao Youlin's birth mother was the only daughter of a good businessman. Therefore, he had been pampered since young. Moreover, Zhao Youlin's mother came from an educated family. So, he was naturally calmer and independent.

Although her mother's background was not as great as the Zhao family, she had her own pride. Naturally, he did not do everything according to Zhao Shuncheng's wishes. Soon, Zhao Shuncheng was fed up with her. Moreover, at that moment, Zhao Shuncheng and Li Hongyu were deeply in love with each other. Compared to the beautiful and extremely obedient Li Hongyu, Zhao Shuncheng thought Zhao Youlin's mother was boring. Then, Li Hongyu cleverly instilled some advice in Zhao Shuncheng's mind. It was completely shaken in Zhao Shuncheng's heart to naturally side with him. As a result, Zhao Shuncheng slowly found Zhao Youlin's mother boring and soon, annoying. In the end, he even found it disgusting.

After so many years, Li Hongyu still used the same trick over and over again, and never failed. Naturally, he would not let Zhao Youxi fight Zhao Shuncheng at this time. It would be a suicide attempt to ask for trouble.

After Li Hongyu had managed to calm Zhao Youxi down, she immediately turned around and comforted Zhao Shuncheng, who was still in a state of rage, by speaking softly, “Suncheng, Youxi did not intend to repay you. He had been expelled from the Zhao Enterprise and hence, he was also in a bad mood. Don't you think you're too careless?”

Indeed indeed. After hearing Li Hongyu's words, Zhao Shuncheng's expression slightly looked better. However, he still had a flat face. He nodded and turned his back.

When Li Hongyu saw this, he hurriedly pinched his arm mercilessly without leaving even the slightest trace. He was in so much pain that his eyes immediately turned red. She lowered her head with teary eyes, and sobbed, “I know Youlin has always hated us because she thought that it was us who destroyed her family, as well as caused her mother's death. What happened in the past was something I never expected. However, no matter what, his mother's death was more or less related to mine. So, I feel very sorry for him. Over the years, I have tolerated him. Even when he was the cause of my complaint, I also did not dare to complain about him.”

Then, Li Hongyu pretently wiped away the tears of her culture. Seeing Li Hongyu cry was Zhao Shuncheng's greatest weakness. Thus, his expression softened and no longer looked as dark as he was.

Li Hongyu caught her doubts and continued her efforts by saying, “In the past, everything was my fault. B-But Zhao Youxi is innocent. At the time, he was still a child. He doesn't know anything. The reason why Youulin treated Youxi like this was because he wanted to avenge me. But, why didn't Youlin consider the fact that after all, Youxi was still his half-brother? Even though she has been adopted by Big Brother and is now her daughter, she is still in the blood of our family. Youming is abroad now. Among our family, other than yourself, Youxi is the only person left in the Zhao Enterprise. However, Youlin still chased him away, killing every member of our family. Isn't ... Didn't he try to remove all of us from the Zhao Enterprise ?!”

Li Hongyu articulated his words cunningly. One, she had secretly provoked Zhao Shuncheng's approval of Zhao Youlin that no matter how great Zhao Youlin was, her former master had made her Zhao Shunrong's adopted daughter. Thus, regardless of how much Zhao Shuncheng liked Zhao Youlin, Zhao Youlin was already part of the eldest son's family. Whatever achievements he had today, his glory would never be reflected on him.

Second, Li Hongyu hinted to Zhao Shuncheng that she only had one daughter, Zhao Youxi. Zhao Youxi was also the person he had to rely on in the Zhao Enterprise. Now, Zhao Youlin had sided with the eldest son's family. Kicking Zhao Youxi out of the Zhao Enterprise undoubtedly burned the bridge. In the future, will there be a place for their family in the Zhao Enterprise?
