President, Please Be Careful
213

Looking at the stubborn Zhao Shuncheng who would never admit his mistake even if it cost him his life, Zhao Youlin snorted. He sighed to himself, 'Zhao Youxi is the chip from the block. The girl was exactly like her father who had the same appearance as if she would never be wrong even when the world did.'

So, true to the saying, the character of parents forms the character of their children.

“You mentioned that you were the one who gave me half my genes and raised me, while they never gave anything to me, yet I sided with them instead of you and so, so, you think this doesn't make sense, do you?” Zhao Youlin looked at Zhao Shuncheng with ridicule, and she sneered, “Then, let me clarify this to you about the difference between you and them. Indeed, you have given half of my genes and raised me for over a decade. However, other than this, what other fatherly responsibilities have you done?”

Zhao Shuncheng gulped with great difficulty under Zhao Youulin's intimidating gaze. He said guiltily, "Isn't that ... more than enough?"

“Do you think that's enough?! So, is this how you treat your daughter, Master Zhao?! You contributed to his birth, providing his food while his clothes, regardless of whether it was branded, were handmade, right?! If this is the way you treat Zhao Youxi as well, I have nothing to say. But actually, no!"

"What did you say?" Zhao Shuncheng widened his eyes in bewilderment after hearing Zhao Youlin's words.

Before this, Zhao Shuncheng had thought he was at least providing for Zhao Youlin even though he did not share the same father-son love with her as he did for Zhao Youxi. However, today, he realized that ... things are not as simple as he thought.

Judging from his appearance, it seemed like he really did not know about Zhao Youulin's previous life in the Zhao family. However, there was no need to show sympathy to him either.

After all, he was the head of the family. Zhao Youlin would not have a miserable life if she did not deliberately ignore this matter.

In fact, he had to bear most of the responsibility for the previous owner's miserable life that lasted for more than two decades.

“Do you not understand? Then let me say it differently. Master Zhao, do you know what kind of life I have lived since my mother died? That woman you thought was virtuous came to me and flaunted it to me every day, warning me not to have any wishful thinking about everything in the Zhao family. All of them belong to your bastard son and none of them belong to me. When you weren't around, he treated me like a waiter. In fact, there are times when my position is even worse than that of a servant. They insulted me, cursed me, and beat me whenever they wanted. I have never eaten enough and also not given thick clothes to warm myself.”

“I don't know about all this ...” Zhao Shuncheng's explanation was weak and shallow. He can't make a case for himself.

After hearing this, Zhao Youlin suddenly turned around and looked into Zhao Shuncheng's eyes, which were filled with confusion. He ruthlessly tore the scar wound belonging to a ghostly lump that had disappeared somewhere in this world, “You don't know? What a fantastic reason! You don't know what kind of life your daughter went through every day in the past. You don't know how your daughter is treated every day at home. You certainly did not know that one winter, I had a high fever but no one wanted to call a doctor to cure me, and I almost froze to death in a house filled with heartless souls!

"How ... How ... I really don't know ..." Zhao Shuncheng wanted to defend himself. At that point, he was out of tongue.

Zhao Youlin saw his struggle. He snickered and approached her. His gaze was as sharp as an arrow, and his words were cut like a sharp knife, “Indeed. You never know anything. You don't care about them either. All you ever do is indulge yourself in your free life and enjoy the moment. At the time something happened, only then did you come to me to act like a father. Ask yourself, Do you think yourself worthy of it?!”

Zhao Youlin glanced at the grieving Zhao Shuncheng. He slowly straightened his body and heaved a sigh of relief. He had vented the grievances that had been suppressed by his original owner within him.

After venting his anger, Zhao Youlin did not want to continue wasting her breath with Zhao Shuncheng. She immediately asked him to leave, “That's all for today. Regardless of whether you are willing, Zhao Shunrong and Duan Yarong are my parents now. You and I are no less than an elder and junior, and neither will I go far. I'm honoring you as my Elder, and I'm not going to choose you that much. However, we have this repetition, don't blame me for my hostility."

Zhao Shuncheng turned pale. She bit her lips and said nothing more.

The corner of Zhao Youulin's lips curved upwards, “I also don't want to say much. Mr. Zhao, if nothing else, please come back.”

When Zhao Youlin asked him to leave, it was only then that Zhao Shuncheng regained his senses from his daze and remembered his goal of coming for Zhao Youlin. He hurriedly said, "Another matter ..."

Zhao Youlin turned around and walked to her office desk. When she heard his words, she furrowed her brows and asked, even though she already knew the answer, "What's wrong?"

“This is about your sister .. about Zhao Youxi being fired. I'd like you to retract your words so that he can return to Zhao Enterprise..”.

Zhao Shuncheng's tone of voice sounded much softer compared to when he first entered the office. He clearly noticed that the use of an elder's authority to instruct Zhao Youlin to act according to her wishes no longer worked. So, he had to humble himself for a while so Zhao Youlin was more likely to bestow her honor on him.

Unfortunately, Zhao Shuncheng thought too much of himself. Before he finished speaking, Zhao Youlin rejected him without hesitation, “No way. He will never be able to return to the company.”

"Why?" Zhao Shuncheng was startled and took two steps forward. He said furiously, "Youlin, no matter what, he's your sister!"

However, Zhao Youlin did not buy this. She sneered, “Stop using the conversation about kinship to influence me. I didn't even bother to identify you as my father, let alone a sister like him!"

Zhao Shuncheng's face darkened. He wanted to explode again, he had to hold back his anger. He said solemnly, “Youlin, Li Hongyu is a guilty person. I'll definitely give him a piece of my mind later and give you an explanation. However, Youxi. Can you let him return to the Zhao Enterprise for my sake .. Your elder?"

Zhao Shuncheng did not dare to call himself his father. He had to humble himself and use his identity as an elder to ask for help from Zhao Youlin.

Little did he know that Zhao Youlin actually found her words amusing, “Not guilty? You really think Zhao Youxi is innocent? Do you know why he was expelled from the Zhao Enterprise by me? How dare you say he's innocent ?!”
