When Zhao Youxi heard the sound of a car engine outside, she immediately got up from the sofa and climbed up there.
“Dad, Mother, why are you back so soon? B-Did you bring my older sister to apologize to President Mu? What did President Mu say?” Zhao Youxi's warm welcome was not reciprocated with the same loving response from her parents.
Not only that, his father who always spoiled him even put on a flat face and walked past him, as if ignoring his existence.
Zhao Youxi froze on the spot. Soon after, he saw Li Hongyu who was following from behind Zhao Shuncheng complaining to him, “Schencheng, let's talk about this. There is no need to vent your anger on Youxi. Look, you scared him!”
It would be best if Li Hongyu remained silent. As he said those words, it was as if he had ignited gunpowder.
The next moment, Zhao Shuncheng exploded. He simply took anything within his reach on the table and smashed it to the ground.
He said, “I haven't finished the calculation with you! How dare you even say that I am the first to be guilty?!” The sound of ceramics breaking into pieces in the living room was heard.
Both Zhao Youxi and Li Hongyu were shocked by her sudden reaction. Zhao Youxi had never experienced this before.
He hurriedly held Li Hongyu's hand and asked, “Mother, what happened? Why did Dad suddenly become so angry? Did Young Master Mu close you down when you all went there to apologize?”
“We never even got a chance to travel to Young Master Mu's house. Forgetit. The most important thing was to comfort your father first,” Li Hongyu sighed and secretly formed an alliance with her daughter.
The next moment he turned around and cried in front of Zhao Shuncheng. “Solve the calculation with me? How dare you really talk about settling the calculations with me?! Shuncheng, how can you do this to me? I've been with you for years. I have even given birth to two of our children, Youxi and Youming. Although I have not succeeded in anything, at least I have worked very hard for many years. Who would have thought that even after all the hardships I had gone through, I was still called a mistress by the younger generation on the streets. I might be better off ending my life than having to endure such humiliation at my age..." Li Hongyu was a civilian woman with no strong background.
Her tears flowed like a torrential rain without the slightest stop. Zhao Youxi was shocked as she heard her mother's words and exclaimed, “Mistress? Mother, who would dare to call you that?”
“Who else can? She is none other than your sister. I've known for a long time that he wasn't satisfied with me because of his mother's problems. However, I never expected him to actually treat me like this. He even told your father that I had abused him. It was so. I raised him, anyone can let the past go after so many years. Little did I know he was actually an ungrateful brat!”
“It was a-w...” Zhao Youxi exploded with rage the moment she heard Li Hongyu's words.
He almost wanted to abuse her on social media. However, Li Hongyu saw this coming. He hurriedly held onto his arm and gave a hint by winking at him.
The curse words immediately stuck in Zhao Youxi's throat. He seemed to realize something. Expressions change. In an instant, his expression turned as sad as his mother's.
He shouted in deep despair, “Woman sister, why should that person be you …? How can you say that…? All this time, I've been good to you. How can you turn a blind eye to all this?”
Zhao Shuncheng's heart clenched as he heard the conversation between mother and son behind him.
He turned his head and was greeted by the sight of his wife and daughter leaning close to each other. Their eyes are red. His heart was slightly moved.
Finally, she could not help but say, “Alright, stop crying. This problem's over. We still need to think of a way to deal with the Mu.” family
