Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Mr. Zhao was beside himself with anger.
He almost roared as he said this.
Seeing that she did not seem to know how to speak anymore, Mr. Zhao raised his hand and caned her again.
Zhao Lingling trembled violently and fell forward. The people around her immediately ran over to help her.
“Miss!”
“Lingling!”
“Quick, call the doctor!”
Mrs. Zhao looked at her collapsed daughter and could not help but protest to Mr. Zhao, tears in her eyes, “She’s your daughter! Are you going to beat her to death?!”
Mr. Zhao had lost himself in a fit of anger. He stood rooted to the ground, watching as everyone panicked over his daughter. Eventually, his hand trembled and the cane fell to the ground.
When the doctor arrived, Zhao Lingling woke up. The doctor disinfected her wounds and applied medicine; it was so painful that she almost fainted.
Mrs. Zhao watched from the side, crying as she watched.
Mr. Zhao stood in front of the full-length window and gazed out.
Zhao Lingling gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, her eyes filled with hatred.
Her mind was filled with all sorts of images of how Lù Yue’an treated her at the stadium.
Mrs. Zhao walked over and squatted down beside her to look at her. She raised her hand and caressed her hair. “Lingling, can you tell me what’s going on? I know you aren’t the kind of person to do such a thing.”
Zhao Lingling’s eyes were teary as she looked at Mrs. Zhao. Her lips were trembling.
“Mom.”
Mrs. Zhao moved closer to her again.
Zhao Lingling looked at her and stuttered, “I’m, the one, who did it!”
Mrs. Zhao was stunned, but Zhao Lingling looked at her. Her eyes were dark and red, and tears streamed down her face.
Mr. Zhao was also stunned for a moment. He turned around from the window, not expecting her to admit it so directly.
While the two of them were in a daze, Zhao Lingling suddenly looked at Mrs. Zhao and asked, “Mom, am I your daughter?”
Mrs. Zhao quickly looked at her, her chest tightening. “Yes, you’re my daughter!”
Zhao Lingling suddenly turned to look at Mr. Zhao. “Dad, do you really treat me as your daughter?!”
Mr. Zhao was stunned for a moment and looked at her. “What nonsense are you talking about?! How didn’t I treat you as my daughter?! Of course you’re my daughter!”
Zhao Lingling suddenly laughed when she heard that. “Mom, I’m your daughter, but in your heart I can never compare to Dad. Dad, I’m your daughter, but in your heart I can never compare to your career.
“Hah, if not for these, why would I do such a thing?”
The second part of her statement was a little incoherent, and neither of them understood.
Until a sound came from outside the door.
Considering the especial situation at home today, the butler entered and inquired of Mrs. Zhao. “Madam, Miss Wu Tian is here. Should we invite her in?”
Mrs. Zhao wiped her tears. She had not planned to invite her in, not with Zhao Lingling’s current situation,
Zhao Lingling suddenly said, “Let her in, let her have a look at my sorry self.
What happened to me today might happen to her in the near future.”
Mrs. Zhao was stunned. When she regained her senses, she nodded at the butler.
When Wu Tian entered, she saw Zhao Lingling lying on the sofa. The doctor was applying medicine for her, and her back was covered with traces of blood.
Wu Tian could not help but grimace and turn her head away.
“Wu Tian, come here.”
Mr. Zhao called out to Wu Tian. After Wu Tian greeted him, she walked to the full-length window and looked at Mr. Zhao. “Uncle Zhao.”
Although Mr. Zhao heard Zhao Lingling admit it, it was obvious that there was some other meaning hidden in her words, especially the second part of it. Wu Tian definitely knew something.
Hence, Mr. Zhao looked at Wu Tian. “What exactly is going on? If you know, tell Uncle the truth.”
Wu Tian looked at him and eventually took out her phone…
