Chapter 223


    Hearing Su Yuanming words, Xu Lisha snuggled in his arms and shook her head silently.


    Although she didn’t say anything, her action was perceived by him as her being concerned about his


    rtionship with his daughter, and thus she appeared anguish.


    Therefore, he nced at Su Yige in displeasure before saying softly to Xu Lisha, “Let’s go back into our


    room first.”


    Su Ziyue sighed internally at the scene unfolding before her.


    She suddenly understood the saying: ‘The woman conquers the man who conquers the world’.


    Now that she thought about it, this saying was quite true.


    Su Yige was so angry at her father that she trembled with rage.


    She had been spoiled as a child, and everybody in the family except Su Ziyue adored her. Her father,


    Su Yuanming, was no exception.


    But now, Su Yuanming was giving her the cold shoulder just because of a random woman! Even


    though he did not scold her, she clearly felt his displeasure toward her.


    “Wait!”


    Su Yige ran up to them and blocked their way. Her tone was agitated as she said, “Dad, what’s so good


    about this woman? She’s just a scammer! Su Ziyue hired her to sow discord between us. Dad, please


    don’t trust her!”


    Su Ziyue was drinking soup at the side when she heard Su Yige mention her. She nced at Su


    Yuanming curiously.


    Su Yuanming reprimanded Su Yige sternly, “Shut up!”


    “Dad!” Su Yige stared at him in disbelief.


    This was the very first time Su Yuanming had reprimanded her so harshly, so she couldn’t stand it at


    all.


    “Dad, you’re shouting at me all because of an outsider?”


    Su Yige’s eyes reddened as she spoke.


    Su Yuanming’s heart softened as he looked at her. After all, she was his precious daughter, whom he


    had loved and cared for since she was little. He reached out to pat her shoulder and said, “There,


    there. Don’t kick up a fuss anymore, okay? Lisha isn’t an outsider. She’s one of us now, so you have to


    be nice to her. Don’t let me worry, okay?”


    Su Yuaming’s mention of Xu Lisha made Su Yige even more upset.


    But she knew that it wasn’t the right time for her to start a conflict with her father. As for Xu Lisha...


    Her gaze fell onto Xu Lisha’s belly.


    Whether this baby will be born sessfully and get a share of the family estate is not all up to them.


    As she thought about this, she calmed down, and her expression cleared up. She said obediently, “I


    understand. I was too impulsive just now. I’ll be nice to her from now on.”


    “Okay.”


    Su Yuanming nodded and told her to rest early, then took Xu Lisha away with him.


    Su Yige looked after their backs as they disappeared from sight and gnashed her teeth in rage.


    Su Ziyue finished the soup slowly. She reached out and put her hair behind her ear, then smiled at Su


    Yige. “Miss Xu’s cooking skill is quite good. Do you want to taste some of her soup?”

    “Hmph!”


    Su Yige snorted, “Make way!”


    Su Ziyue nced at her and walked out.


    ...


    The two of them went upstairs.


    In the corridor, they met Gong Zeyang, who was approaching.


    When he saw Su Ziyue, he smiled and greeted, “Ziyue!”


    Before Su Ziyue could reply, Su Yige, who wasing up from behind, had already brushed past her


    and quickly walked up to Gong Zeyang.


    She held onto his arm as she turned back and smiled brightly at Su Ziyue as if announcing her right


    over her man. “Ziyue, we’ll talk more tomorrow. Rest early, okay?”


    Su Ziyue put her hands into the pockets of her jacket. Her eyes were cold as she didn’t reply.


    Creak... Su Ziyue’s bedroom door opened, and Qin Muchen stood behind it in his bathrobe. His gaze


    fell onto the three of them outside.


    Su Ziyue’s hand curled into a fist in her pocket as embarrassment shed across her face, and she


    quickly walked toward him.


    Su Yige had expected that she would ignore herpletely.


    She turned toward Gong Zeyang with a cid expression. “Let’s go back to our room and rest.”


    Gong Zeyang ignored her and looked toward Qin Muchen’s direction.


    Qin Muchen was holding Su Ziyue and pushing her into the room. As he felt Gong Zeyang’s gaze on


    him, he turned back to stare at him coldly before closing the door.


    Su Yige had too much pent-up anger within her tonight. Seeing Gong Zeyang looking longingly after Su


    Ziyue, she finally exploded.


    “Since you can’t bear to part with her, then just go and sleep in there!”


    “What are you talking about?!”


    Gong Zeyang felt extremely ufortable at Su Yige’s shrill voice. He frowned and scoffed lightly


    before pushing her into the room forcefully.


    She stumbled into the room from the force of the push. Then, she breathed heavily as her eyes


    reddened. “You pushed me?”


    “So what? You’re unreasonable in the first ce.” A look of loathing shed across Gong Zeyang’s


    face.


    Su Yige’s reputation was now in shreds. If Gong Shuzhe hadn’t threatened him with the Gong Family’s


    inheritance rights as well as the Gong Family’s immense pressure, he wouldn’t bother to marry her.


    “I’m unreasonable?” Su Yigeughed angrily. “Why did you not get together with Su Ziyue when she


    said that she liked you then? Now she’s already married to LK’s president. Do you think she’ll bother


    with you now?”


    “Shut up!”


    p!


    Gong Zeyang’s furious voice was apanied by a clear pping sound as it echoed around the


    room.


    The p’s momentum had caused Su Yige’s face to turn to the side. After a moment’s silence, she


    turned toward Gong Zeyang before asking with a hollow voice, “Did you just hit me?”


    Staring at her swollen cheek, a look of shock shed across his face.


    A lot had happened recently, and he was very disappointed in her. However, they had been in love


    since they were very young, and he still cherished their rtionship to a certain degree.


    He didn’t really think that he would actually hit her.


    “I’m sorry, I…” He was just too angry then.


    Su Yige interrupted him and said, “I’m the one who is at fault. I shouldn’t say those things to you.”


    Gong Zeyang still felt slightly heartbroken when he saw her holding her cheek and looking lost.


    “There, there. I was too impulsive just now. Does it still hurt?” He reached out and pulled her into his


    arms.


    She leaned into his embrace as she looked away. A sinister look shed across her eyes as she said,


    “It’s fine, it doesn’t hurt…”


    Gong Zeyang isn’t at fault. I’m not at fault either. It’s all Su Ziyue’s fault, and she’s to me for


    everything!


    I’ll return her the favor for everything that has happened today!


    ...


    As for Su Ziyue, she had intended to talk to Qin Muchen about Xu Lisha after she entered the


    bedroom.


    However, once Qin Muchen came in, he had randomly grabbed a girl’s magazine from the rack and


    started flipping through it on the bed,pletely ignoring her.


    As this was where Su Ziyue lived as a teen, the room decorations and all its contents were still in a


    teenage girl’s style.


    Su Yige had insisted on preserving this room because she had wanted to show how magnanimous she


    was.


    Su Ziyue went over to him. “Do you know that…”


    “Go and take a shower.”


    Qin Muchen continued flipping the magazine pages. He moved the magazine and blocked her face


    from his sight as he spoke coldly.


    Su Ziyue blinked as she looked helplessly at him. The great President Qin is angry again.
