In the study room, Chi Jianguo was vexed by her nagging, “When I say no, it means no.”
“Dad, you’re being too autocratic.” Chi Ya wasn’t afraid of him at all; she pouted and wrapped her arms around his, complaining, “1 really like Brother Chengyan and want to be with him. How can you bear to see your baby daughter unhappy?”
Chi Jianguo, unable to focus on his contract because of her antics, simply shut down the computer and looked at her with displeasure, “Xiao Ya, why won’t you listen? Even if the marriage contract between Su Chengyan and your older sister doesn’t count, there was still a verbal agreement between them. If you get together with him, what will people outside say about you?”
Before he could finish, Chi Ya was already stamping her feet like a little girl, “I don’t care what people outside say, let them say what they want! I just want to be with Brother Chengyan.”
“Older sister won’t possibly end up with Brother Chengyan! Dad, you’re not unaware that older sister hasn’t been a virgin for a long time! She had an abortion when she was 18 years old.”
Chi Enen suddenly becoming pregnant back then, although unknown to the public, wasn’t a secret within the Chi family.
Chi Enen going abroad had also been approved by Chi Jianguo.
But everyone in the Chi family assumed Chi Enen was going abroad to get an abortion and lay low, never imagining she would quietly give birth to a child. “Dad, aren’t you planning to join hands with the Su Group for a big project? Is there a more reliable way of cooperation than a marriage alliance? Besides, my little brother and I are your legitimate children, older sister is just a bit closer than an outsider. For such an important matter as a marriage alliance with the Su family, of course, your own daughter is more dependable. Older sister isn’t even born to my mom. Who knows if she will side with her unreliable aunt in the future?” Seeing Chi Jianguo’s attitude softening, she pressed on, “Speaking of which, that family is so annoying. They’ve been coming over like beggars for years, always asking for money—disgusting!”
Chi Jianguo also clearly disliked Lin Meiqi’s behavior of coming over to ask for money anytime and frowned, saying, “Alright, just ignore them.”
Chi Ya pouted and complained, “Who wants to deal with them, she’s shameless! A few days ago, 1 was out shopping with friends and ran into her. As soon as she saw me, she shamelessly came over to claim kinship. She kept following me around, talking sweetly, Just like a snot worm, 1 couldn’t even shake her off. It wasn’t until I bought her a discounted branded bag that I finally got rid of her. It was so annoying, utterly embarrassing.”
“Alright, no matter what, she’s still your older sister’s aunt, don’t stoop to her level.”
Chi Ya grumbled unhappily, “She’s not my aunt. A beggar is a beggar, a breeding one at that.”
“Xiao Ya!” Chi Jianguo glared at her.
Reluctantly, Chi Ya shut her mouth.
Chi Enen, in a state of despair, walked out of the villa and kept going until she reached a bus stop several kilometers away. Only then did she slump onto the seat, cradling her knees and burying her head in them.
Chi Ya’s words, each one like a knife stabbing into her heart. What made it even more intolerable for her was Chi Jianguo’s attitude of neither reprimanding nor denying.
Because she was born to a mistress, did that make her less of a daughter in her dad’s heart compared to Chi Ya?
Chi Enen’s heart clenched tight.
It felt as if a giant hand was squeezing her heart, both painful and suffocating.
At this time, the mobile phone in her bag started to vibrate.
Chi Enen stirred but didn’t reach for the phone.
After the phone rang for a while, it went quiet. Two minutes hadn’t passed before it started up again, persistently….
