522 I Won’t Agree Or Accept It (Part 2)
Zhang Heng slammed the table angrily. “How dare you!”
He had already made a promise to the Li family. He thought that Zhang Shuangshuang was just a puppet whom he could control. Now that she openly objected to it, it undoubtedly angered him.
You Xuerou was also a little surprised. She looked at Zhang Shuangshuang and felt that she was a little different today, but it didn’t matter. She was more than willing to sow discord between the father and daughter.
You Xuerou quickly reached out to pat Zhang Heng on the chest to comfort him. “Master, you’re not in good health. Don’t be angry. If you fall sick, my heart will ache for you.”
Zhang Heng looked at Zhang Shuangshuang coldly, as if he was looking at an enemy.
Zhang Shuangshuang met Zhang Heng’s gaze. “Father, do you know what kind of person Li Yuntian is?”
Zhang Shuangshuang’s mind became clearer and clearer. She looked at Zhang Heng and her expression became calmer and calmer. Her heart was dead, but from now on, she would slowly recover.
Zhang Heng’s expression was cold. “Did anyone say anything to you?”
Li Yuntian’s reputation was not very good, but in his opinion, Li Yuntian was enough to be Zhang Shuangshuang’s husband.
Zhang Heng’s expression darkened. “Li Yuntian’s reputation is not very good, but after you marry him, he will fix himself. Do you think you can still find someone better than Li Yuntian now? No matter how bad Li Yuntian is, he’s still the son of the Right Censor-in-chief.”
Zhang Heng continued coldly with a sneer. “It doesn’t matter if you agree or not. There’s no room for negotiation. I’ve already promised the Li family. You don’t care about your reputation, but I do.”
Zhang Shuangshuang looked at Zhang Heng. As if a string in her heart had suddenly snapped, her voice turned cold. “Father, you have never intended to ask me what I think. Is that so?”
Zhang Heng looked at the coldness in Zhang Shuangshuang’s eyes and was very displeased. “What do you know? I’m doing this for your own good. Do you think anyone has the right to marry the daughter of the Right Censor-in-chief?”
Zhang Shuangshuang felt like laughing. This was the first time she didn’t feel like crying in front of Zhang Heng but wanted to laugh instead. These words sounded like he was concerned about her, but in fact, he just wanted to get rid of her.
Zhang Shuangshuang said coldly, “Since it’s such a good marriage, how can I be so selfish? Why don’t I give such a good marriage to Third Sister or Fourth Sister?”
You Xuerou was shocked. She did not expect Zhang Shuangshuang to say such a thing. Before You Xuerou could react, Zhang Heng already burst into a rage.
He went forward and slapped Zhang Shuangshuang. “You bastard.”
The corner of Zhang Shuangshuang’s mouth started bleeding. She looked up at Zhang Heng. “Father, why are you so angry? Is it wrong for me to give such a good marriage to Third Sister?”
Without waiting for Zhang Heng to speak, the corners of Zhang Shuangshuang’s mouth curled into a mocking smile. “Father, you know that Li Yuntian is an extremely vicious person, but you don’t hesitate to push me into the abyss at all. Instead, you think that I’m compatible with Li Yuntian. So, in your heart, I’m actually also a vicious person.”
Zhang Heng looked at Zhang Shuangshuang angrily and gritted his teeth. “It’s good that you know.”
It was already good enough that she could marry, but she was still not satisfied. She was simply detestable.
Zhang Shuangshuang’s expression was mocking. “Father, may I ask what I did to become such a vicious person in your eyes?”
Zhang Heng frowned. Needless to say, everything she did was vicious.
Zhang Shuangshuang continued. “Or in your opinion, the fact that I am alive makes me a vicious person.”
Zhang Heng snorted. “Unfilial daughter, if I don’t teach you a lesson today, you won’t know the rules.”
You Xuerou came back to her senses. She looked at Zhang Shuangshuang and went forward. “Shuangshuang, don’t make your father angry. Hurry up and apologize to him. Your father is doing this for your own good.”
Zhang Shuangshuang looked at You Xuerou. “Zhang Yufei stole my engagement. Second Madam, you were the one who taught her to do such a shameless thing, right? Do you want me to marry Li Yuntian and live a miserable life just to make me jealous of your daughter?”
You Xuerou was stunned for a moment before she said sadly, “Shuangshuang, how can you say that? You make me so sad.”
Even if she thought so, she would never say it out loud.
Zhang Heng was furious. “You ungrateful thing, how dare you disobey your elders?”
You Xuerou pulled Zhang Heng. “Master, don’t be angry. Shuangshuang’s mother died too early…”
Zhang Heng said angrily, “You look nothing like a woman raised in an official family.”
You Xuerou was about to laugh out loud but she held back her laughter and frowned. “Master, don’t say that. Shuangshuang will be sad.”
Zhang Shuangshuang looked at You Xuerou calmly. Sad? She would no longer be sad. She would no longer show any grief to make You Xuerou and Zhang Yufei happy.
There were too many scenes like this in the past.
On the surface, You Xuerou was speaking up for her, but in fact, every word she said was making Zhang Shuangshuang look like an insensible person. You Xuerou and Zhang Yufei were the same. They were happy to see Zhang Shuangshuang sad.
Since she had hope, Zhang Shuangshuang was hurt every time. However, it would not happen again in the future.
Zhang Shuangshuang turned around and left.
Zhang Heng cursed angrily. “You unfilial daughter, I’m going to cut ties with you and kick you out of the house.”
You Xuerou reached out to pat Zhang Heng on the back and comfort him. “Master, don’t be angry. Shuangshuang said it in a fit of anger.”
It would have been better if You Xuerou hadn’t said anything. Once she did, Zhang Heng became even angrier.
When Zhang Shuangshuang returned to her courtyard, Qing Mei saw her and asked worriedly. “Miss, are you alright?”
Zhang Shuangshuang shook her head. “Qing Mei, I’m moving out. Pack up and leave with me immediately.”
Qing Mei nodded. Zhang Shuangshuang left the mansion soon after. She would not let the engagement be canceled so easily.
Qing Mei did not know where Zhang Shuangshuang was going and followed her with a worried expression.
Zhang Shuangshuang stood outside the Xuanyi department. She looked at the drum and walked over. She raised the drumstick and knocked three times.
Qing Mei was in disbelief. “Miss, this…”
If Master found out, he would beat Miss to death.
Zhang Shuangshuang looked at Qing Mei and smiled. “After the trial, we’ll leave the capital. Are you afraid?”
Qing Mei shook her head. “I am not afraid. I’ll go wherever Miss goes.”
She was actually scared, but she still had to follow the person she cared about.
