Told on Her

Zi Yi felt her father was simply being unreasonable. She said confidently, "Who says I am going to work at your company? I'm going to Metropolis University."

"You?"

Zi Xu was not the only person who felt that Zi Yi was dreaming. Even Li Peirong was trying to persuade her out of it. "I'm glad you want to try but you need at least 700 marks to get into Metropolis University. How much do you think you can get?"

Zi Lian burst out laughing. She suddenly said to Zi Xu and Li Peirong, "She must have gotten cocky after she won some money yesterday."

Zi Xu frowned and asked angrily, "Where did you win this money from?"

Zi Yi glanced at Zi Lian who was watching smugly before she asked rhetorically, "The car racing course. Lian brought me there and lent me the money… Didn't she tell you about it after we came back?"

Zi Xu instinctively looked at Zi Lian.

Zi Lian did not expect Zi Yi to push the blame on her. Zi Lian could not help blushing when Zi Xu kept looking at her. "Uncle Xu, I…"

"Isn't it true?" Zi Yi looked at Zi Liang as she sneered. "You said I had to split my winnings with you if I wanted to borrow your money."

Zi Lian turned speechless. Zi Yi was the one who offered to split any winnings!

Zi Xu looked at Zi Lian and felt displeased. His eldest daughter might be incompetent and a spendthrift, but he did not give her any money yesterday, so she would not have gone to the racecourse on her own accord. It had to be Zi Liang.

Li Peirong noticed how angry Zi Xu was with Zi Lian, so she spoke on their behalf. "It's not like the kids did anything illegal. Lianlian was only trying to pass time with Yiyi. Since they didn't lose money, just consider them going out to have fun."

Zi Xu was not in the mood to consider whether they won or lost the money at the racecourse. They had come to the capital so proudly and were now going to leave with their tails between their legs tomorrow. He found it absolutely embarrassing. He warned Zi Yi angrily, "You aren't allowed to go to dodgy places like that from now on."

"Dodgy places?" Zi Yi looked at Zi Xu. "Do you think a car racing course is a dodgy place?"

Zi Xu did not see this coming. The anger seething in his heart truly exploded. "Isn't it? What else are you capable of other than racing and causing trouble? You can't compare to your younger sister at all. When you can finally be put to good use, the marriage prospect is ruined. You made me a laughing stock."

Zi Yi narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at him coldly. "Do you think I am some tool for you to get close to the He family?"

Zi Xu did not like the way his oldest daughter was looking at him. He could not help feeling scared.

At the thought of people talking behind their backs when they got home, he lost all rationality and raised his hand to slap Zi Yi.

Zi Yi instantly knew what Zi Xu was up to. The moment he raised his hand, she dodged to the side and said, "Since you hate me so much, there is no reason for me to stay here."

The moment she finished her sentence, she turned to leave.

Zi Xu watched from behind as Zi Yi left the room. He roared loudly, "If you go out today, you can forget about ever coming back."

Zi Yi halted and turned to nod at him calmly. "Sure."

She confidently left.

The sound of Zi Xu roaring as he threw a fit and smashed things could be heard from behind. Also, she could hear Li Peirong trying to calm her husband down.

Zi Yi laughed coldly. They were the original host's family. Since she was using her body, she wanted to honor them on account of her which is why she had stayed. Otherwise, she would have left even sooner.

She headed to the lift as she thought to herself.
