“As your father, I ask you to withdraw from this competition to make up for the damage you caused to Huixian’s reputation, and for everything she suffered!
Su Bei, you’ve never been a stable person. You always start something and then quit later. I can continue to support your expenses in the future, but you can’t harass Huixian or destroy her career!”
Su Xingfu said in a more serious tone.
Su Bei was so angry that she burst into incredulous laughter. Since her own father was treating her like this, what else could she say?
“What if I don’t agree?” Her voice was lazy and distant.
While still staring at his daughter, Su Xingfu said, “Miss Qiu, please accept that job for Su Bei.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Su. I’ve already agreed on her behalf.”
Su Bei immediately shot her agent a wary look. “What job are you talking about?”
Qiu Minxuan smiled politely. “Su Bei, as per Mr. Su’s wish, you are going to attend to a ribbon-cutting ceremony of a company. However, it clashes with the Orisa International Show. So…”
“What?” Su Bei cried. She jerked around to face her father with aggrieved tears in her eyes. “How can you control my life like this? I’m not going to that ribbon-cutting ceremony. I put in so much effort to get that chance. I have to go to the Orisa Show!”
“I’m sorry, Su Bei. The Orisa Show committee has confirmed to me that Huixian is on the final list,” Qiu Minxuan said with a shrug. Both Su Xingfu and Du Luo had spoken up for Su Huixian at the same time. As a powerless agent, she had no choice but to do what they wanted.
Obviously, Su Huixian hadn’t gotten the chance to stand on the Orissa Show stage through her own efforts. Qiu Minxuan had called the committee and told them that Su Bei wouldn’t be able to attend the show as she had other commitments.
As the model in the sixth place, Su Huixian was naturally called to replace Su Bei.
Su Xingfu looked at his daughter and said, “If you don’t want to attend that ribbon-cutting ceremony, just come straight home! I won’t allow my daughter to make a fool of herself in public.”
“Dad, calm down. Have a sip of tea,” Su Huixian said, walking into the room with a cup of tea.
Compared to her, Su Bei appeared to be very unfilial.
It was only after seeing Su Huixian that Su Xingfu relaxed. Taking the cup of tea, he told her, “I’ve told Su Bei to come home.”
“Su Bei, Dad did all this for your own good. You should try to understand him. He has been missing you all these years.” Su Huixian looked gentle and kind.
However, Su Bei stared at the two of them coldly. What a perfect father and daughter! Wasn’t it enough for them to be a family? What was the point of including her in the family?
“I’ll never go back to the Su family,” she said firmly.
Su Xingfu raised his hand angrily to slap his daughter. “You’re so shameless!”
Su Huixian caught her father’s hand in a hurry and pretended to persuade him. “Dad, Su Bei is just a little stubborn. Give her more time. She’ll come around.”
“If she were half as obedient as you, I wouldn’t have to worry so much,” Su Xingfu snapped.
“I will persuade Su Bei.”
Su Bei turned around and walked out of the room. Ironically, a celebration party was being held in the hall of the company to celebrate her qualifying for the Orisa Show.
The hall was decorated with blooming flowers, and there was a grand three-tiered cake on the table in the middle. Beautiful music was playing. Everyone here was wishing for her to have a big success tomorrow night at the fashion show.
Even though it was a small party, it was well-arranged.
The buffet table was filled with various drinks.
