“Dad!” Chi Ya’s tears started flowing again.

Though Chi Jianguo’s heart ached, this time he remained firm. His face stern, he did not relent, “No means no, stop thinking about it.”

“I just like Brother Chengyan, and if you don’t agree, then 1 simply won’t marry anyone for the rest of my life!” Chi Ya, seeing that crying was useless, let her spoiled nature burst forth with a threat.

“You—” Chi Jianguo was so enraged he could barely breathe, his chest heaving violently.

Gu Qiaomei hurried forward to gently soothe his chest, whispering comfortingly, “Alright, don’t be angry with Ya Ya, what if you hurt yourself?”

“But look at her! Is this how a daughter of the Chi family should act?” Chi Jianguo was still angry, pointing at Chi Ya furiously.

Chi Ya had been spoiled since she was a child, which bred a temper in her. Even though she could tell that Chi Jianguo was angry, she retorted without thinking, “What’s wrong with how 1 am? I just like Brother Chengyan, how is that a fault? I’m still better than my older sister, at least I didn’t climb into a wild man’s bed for money at 18 years old!”

Chi Jianguo’s face turned red with anger. He pushed Gu Qiaomei aside, raised his hand, and delivered a slap to her face. Without even looking at her tear-streaked face, he left her with the words, “You need to come to your senses. Until you think things through, I’m freezing your bank card.”

After speaking, he turned and went upstairs.

Once the sound of the study room door slamming could be heard, Chi Ya embraced Gu Qiaomei and sobbed, “Mom, I just said that little bastard, Xiao Ye, wasn’t any good, and he hit me. 1 can’t live like this.”

Gu Qiaomei felt a twinge of discomfort in her heart as well. She hugged Chi Ya back, gently patting her in an attempt to comfort her while saying, “Alright, don’t cry. You shouldn’t have spoken like that in front of your dad, and you mustn’t repeat what you just said in front of him.”

Chi Ya didn’t expect her mother to scold her instead of taking her side. She sat up, looking stubborn and wronged, “1 didn’t say anything wrong. Chi Enen is a bastard, Xiao Ye, so why can’t I say it?”

“It’s her mother who’s shameless, knowing full well dad had a wife and still muscling into someone else’s marriage. Then she gave birth to that little shameless brat.” Chi Ya spat out bitterly, then glared at Gu Qiaomei with wide eyes, “Mom, you can’t possibly be so virtuous as to really think of Chi Enen as your daughter, can you?”

Gu Qiaomei was already over forty years old, but she took good care of herself. Her skin was smooth and firm, making her look like she was just over thirty. What was most commendable was her dignity and grace fitting of a Morally Lady, which, at this moment, was torn by Chi Ya’s words. For a moment, her well-maintained face twisted, “How could I?”

“Then why do you…”

Gu Qiaomei suppressed the hostility rising within her, regaining her composed and dignified demeanor, saying lightly, “Ya Ya, how many times have 1 told you? One must keep their composure in all things; it’s the person who can keep their cool who has the last laugh. Do you think your dad really loves Chi Enen so much?”

Chi Ya didn’t understand, “Isn’t he? Every time I speak ill of her, dad gets angry.”

Gu Qiaomei scoffed, “He gets angry because you’ve touched a nerve, not because you’ve spoken about his daughter.”

If Chi Jianguo truly cared deeply for Chi Enen, he wouldn’t have allowed such differential treatment towards her for so many years. And he certainly wouldn’t have… done what he did back then.

“But Ya Ya, listen to your dad regarding the matter of Su Chengyan. If he doesn’t like you, just give it up..”
