Chapter 19; How can you say that I'm a jinx?

Li Feng turned around and eyed the pot-bellied man who had just spoken up with so much anger and hatred! You could tell they didn't have any similarities with Zhou Yuxi, and they didn't like her; he slightly frowned, gazing at Third Master Mu, wondering why a father could say something like that about his daughter.

"Father, how can you say that I'm a jinx whereas I haven't done anything evil to earn that title? Father, do you hate me that much? Is my existence in your life a jinx? Do you mean to say, Third Master Mu shouldn't have brought me here from the orphanage?" Zhou Yuxi's head poked out of the cover, facing her father, who was around five steps away from them.

"You!" He was stamped and speechless. Could he say he hated her in front of Third Master Mu? She seemed to be getting closer to this man and if he dared to do anything bad to her, they might end up having a miserable life ahead of them. Their business heavily depended on the Mu conglomerate.

Third Master Mu coldly squinted his eyes, glaring at him! How could he say something like that about her as her father? Could it be she has been hiding whatever she has been going through in the Zhou family from him? Did this mean they didn't treat her as one of their family members?

"Father, I have always been a dutiful daughter to you! Tell me what I've never done for you. Tell me if I have ever brought any shame to our family. Father, I turned eighteen, but you have never held any celebration banquet for me; you have never introduced me to society as your daughter!" Zhou Yuxi softly remarked glaring at her father.

"My dear, it's the slip of my tongue and I was worried about your sister and mother." Zhou Zhenyu didn't dare expose his deeds in front of Third Master Mu.

"All right Father... Let's wait for the firemen to rescue mommy and sister, I hope they haven't turned into ashes!" She softly spoke up with a pained expression indicating how sad she was with the entire situation.

Zhou Zhenyu and his sons could only clench their jaws and hands, waiting to see if they would be saved. They didn't know if Zhou Yuxi meant with her words or if she was being sarcastic.

Sooner, the police officers also arrived! They needed to take statements from everyone but they had to wait until the rescue team was done and everyone vacated from that place safely.

In no time, the fire rescuers managed to put the fire out and rescue the victims who were inside the mansion. They were seriously injured and had burns which they needed the doctors to tell them to what extent!

They were immediately rushed into an ambulance so that they could be rushed over to the hospital for emergency treatment.

"Third Master Mu, I will join my mommy and sister in that ambulance so that I can donate blood for them; they need me..." She got out of the duvet cover that was wrapped around her body and rushed over to the ambulance.

Third Master Mu, who was left to hold the duvet cover, loudly sighed! How can she still be this kind to these people who didn't treat her as their family member?

"Doctor, doctors... I can donate blood for them! I'm their perfect match." She rushed forward, making everyone think she was worried about her family members, but she just wanted to check to what extent their bodies were burned and the injuries they succumbed to.
