BXBX NOVEL Chapter 461 - 461 Humble Prayer, Fatherly Love
Sisi took it happily. “Thank you, Mom.”
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got along harmoniously, but Huo Zhou was like an outsider and was neglected. Huo Zhou’s expression was even uglier than if he had eaten shit.
In the end, he suddenly complained, “Mom, you’re looking for a wife for yourself, right?”
Huo Zhou’s mother slapped him. “Brat, don’t be ungrateful. Sisi is a good girl. You’ll like her one day.”
!!
Just like that, Huo Zhou went on a blind date and brought home a girl. He only knew that her name was Sisi, and nothing else.
He didn’t know her height, blood type, or preferences. He didn’t know about her education, family background, or living conditions.
Huo Zhou felt that he would be brought into the gutter by his unreliable mother sooner or later. After returning home, he hid in Huo Xiaoran’s villa to avoid Sisi.
Qiao An was a little bored when Huo Xiaoran chatted with him and thought of Ze’en.
She sent a message to Ze’en. “After you returned to the Li family villa, did your scumbag father make things difficult for you?”
Ze’en replied instantly, “My scumbag father is interrogating me.”
Qiao An’s heart hung in her throat.
“You have to calm down and not be impulsive. Try not to get into a conflict with him,” she warned Ze’en.
On the other end, Li Tingfeng sat on the swivel chair in the study. Li Ze’en stood in front of him with her hands lowered.
“Ze’en, from today onwards, you’d better not go to the company to work.”
Li Ze’en deliberately pretended to be surprised, disappointed, and sad. After acting for so long, she had to admire herself for being able to conjure so many emotions in a short period of time.
“Dad, why? Did I do something wrong? I’m conscientious in the company and didn’t cause you any trouble,” she choked with tears.
A hint of shame appeared on Li Tingfeng’s face, but he still did not change his decision. “It’s not appropriate for you to be Zeyu’s assistant.”
“Dad, I’m your daughter. If you don’t want me, where can I go?” Ze’en lowered her posture to the ground. But her hands clenched in anger.
“Why don’t you look for your brother and ask him to find you a decent job in the Angel Group?” Li Tingfeng wanted to shake off Ze’en, the hot potato.
Anger rose in Ze’en’s eyes. “You’re my father. If you don’t care about me, how can my brother be obligated to care about me? Besides, if my brother finds out that I made peace with you behind his back, he’ll only say that I’m useless.”
Li Tingfeng glanced at Ze’en, who glared at him with red eyes. In the end, she asked him, “Dad, do you only want my stepmother’s children in your heart? Tell me clearly today. If that’s really what you think, then I’ll go out to beg and I’ll never return to beg you.”
Li Tingfeng’s tongue swirled in his mouth, but he did not say anything heartless.
It was not that he did not want Ze’en, but that he loved Ze Yu and Ze Feng more. If he had to lose Ze Yu and Zefeng due to Ze’en’s appearance, he would not hesitate to sacrifice Ze’en.
Seeing his hesitation, Ze’en sneered inwardly.
“Ze’en, you’ve misunderstood me. I just feel that for some reason, your brother is very unhappy that you and Zeyu are working together.” He didn’t finish the rest of his sentence. Instead, he sized Ze’en up.
He thought Ze’en would understand his dilemma.
However, Ze’en had come with the intention of revenge. How could she stop her plan because of Li Tingfeng?
She would only torture him even more.
“Dad, if he’s unhappy, you have to sacrifice me, right?”
Li Tingfeng was a little embarrassed, but he said bluntly, “Ze’en, you have to understand Dad’s difficulties. Zeyu is a boy. In the future, he will inherit Dad’s company. Moreover, Dad will grow old one day and need your brother to take care of me.”
Ze’en looked at him steadily. “So you gave your money and your company to the siblings because you hoped they would support you in your old age? You’re so mean to me because you don’t need me to support you in your old age, right?”
Li Tingfeng’s face darkened. “Ze’en, what are you saying? Dad raised you and fulfilled his responsibility as a father. If you don’t support me in my old age, are you still human?”
Ze’en sneered. “Yes, you raised me. But how did you raise me? You never attended my school’s parent-teacher meeting. You rarely cared about me when I was sick. Actually, you just gave me a fund that was just enough for me to survive and grow up.”
“Of course, as you said, I have the obligation to support you. But how?” She looked at Li Tingfeng coldly.
Li Tingfeng’s entire body turned cold from her gaze. “I’m not old yet. It’s really too early to talk about retirement.”
Ze’en sneered. “You must be afraid too. You’re afraid that when you are old, I would throw you on the bed and hire a cheap nurse to take care of you. He would abuse you. The day you cried and complained to us, I would only tell you that you have to understand me. I have to survive too. Who asked my father not to give me enough survivability?”
Li Tingfeng imagined himself in his old age. If it was really that miserable, he did not dare to imagine the consequences.
“Alright, don’t you just want money? I’ll give it to you. Don’t say those words to agitate me,” Li Tingfeng said angrily.
Ze’en smiled flirtatiously. “Dad, you’re wrong. I don’t want your money. It’s never your money I want.”
Li Tingfeng’s heart tightened when he saw her cold expression.
“Then what do you want?”
“What I want used to be fatherly love. Now, it’s justice.” With that, Ze’en stalked away.
Li Tingfeng collapsed on the chair.
Fatherly love?
Justice?
He’d never given them to Ze’en. The last time she looked at him, it was as though her heart had ruptured.
He suddenly felt inexplicably terrified.
Ze’en walked out of the Li family villa and called Qiao An.
She cried, “Aunt, I’m sorry. I couldn’t control my emotions. I lost my temper with him. He probably won’t dare to trust me again in this life.”
Qiao An was silent for a moment. Thinking of how Ze’en had compromised recently to please Li Tingfeng, an irresponsible father who had crippled her mother, Qiao An’s heart ached for Ze’en.
“Ze’en, you’ve done very well.”
“Since you’ve severed your relationship, start your own revenge plan.”
Ze’en wiped her tears and returned to the Li family villa with a determined gaze.
When the people in the lobby saw her leave in tears and return with a dark expression, they were surprised by the sudden change in her mood.
This made them sense an unusual atmosphere.
Li Tingfeng sat on the sofa and asked her coldly, “Why are you back again? Do you think you haven’t angered me to death?”
“Yes,” Ze’en said.
