"I saw her today, and she slapped me"
Massaging her cheeks with the ice pack her mom asked her what happened. She said everything that happened today in the store. She continued, "Mom even Young Master Chu Yan was supporting that bitch Li Zi Yun and he came for shopping with her".
"That is not good; we cannot have someone strong backing her. Are they in a relationship? How did he treat her?" her mother was getting anxious.
"When my cheeks were red and swollen he got ice pack to soothe her hands and not my swollen cheeks. He was taking care of her so well"
"And Mom if she has someone strong backing she will never let us go for what we did to her, we have to stop her"
In the past when Li Zi Yun was staying at Li family home, Fu Ming Zhu was a cruel step mother. When she entered home after marrying Li Shu Chen, Li Zi Yun's father, she had tortured Li Zi Yun every single day as much as she could.
In the beginning she was doing it secretly, since Li Zi Yun was the only child till then and she was loved and adored by everyone, she did not want Li Shu Chen to get angry with her or chase her out. But later when she came to know that Li Shu Chen knows what she was doing and still never questioned her, she gained confidence and started abusing her. Sometimes she even complained to Li Shu Chen about Li Zi Yun and made Li Zi Yun get punished in his hands.
After becoming the lady of Li family, she went to the elite clubs for ladies. There she was neither treated with respect nor taken care of. Most of the women ignored her even though she tried to be friendly with them. Even if she had so much money and tried to boast of it by setting up parties, none of the important ladies or the ladies from the elite families showed up. It was only the next circle that visited. And whenever this happened she turned her anger towards Li Zi Yun, that she was treated like this because of Li Zi Yun's dead mother.
When Li Zi Yun was young she once made her stand in the rain for long period. She was brought inside the house only after someone found her lying outside dripping wet and shivering. Then the following day she had chills along with high fever and she was shivering. She was vomiting no matter what she ate or drank. And only after long consideration Li Zi Yun was taken to hospital. The doctor said she had pneumonia and she had to be treated immediately.
That was the only time Li Shu Chen warned her. And the warning was not to kill Li Zi Yun as she may be of use later. As soon as Li Zi Yun got better the torture started again. So she knew very well what to expect from Li Zi Yun if she became powerful. She thought of speaking about this to Li Shu Chen. Maybe he can control her a tiny bit and then she can use it to her advantage.
As soon as Li Zi Yun completed high school she left home. In other words she ran away from home. She never returned any of her father's calls nor met with them after that. She was only sure of one thing; Li Zi Yun had to be brought under her control again. If Li Zi Yun had Chu Yan's help means she can't be touched easily. So she has to stop it as soon as possible.
She told Li Xin Yi "Make a scene when your father gets home. Something has to be done about her. How dare she touch my daughter?"
She was mumbling under her breath. "I should have killed when she was young. I let her live only because her father hated her. I shouldn't have let her live"
Within the few hours after Li Zi Yun slapped Li Xin Yi. The video had circled around and many people have watched it.
One among the people who saw the video was Assistant Liu Guang. He couldn't stay without telling his boss. He entered the boss's room to tell him, but Wang Yu was already watching it.
Li Cheng Zhi, the only son of Li Shu Chen was the apple of his eye. So Li Cheng Zhi was spoiled from when he was young. Fu Ming Zhu has repeated the words, "You are the heir of Li group" to his from when was a kid so he grew up confident no one can touch him.
Li Cheng Zhi's only goal in life was to enjoy life to maximum without bothering about the trouble he gives others. His father Li Shu Chen and mother Fu Ming Zhu were there to clean up his mess always. They had never once tried to correct him or point out his mistakes.
Whenever Li Cheng Zhi committed crimes, Li Shu Chen always solved it with money. Li Cheng Zhi's mistakes turned to small crimes and now into huge crimes. But still Li Shu Chen never once said a word to him about it or disciplined him. Instead he appointed an assistant for Li Cheng Zhi to erase the evidence without trace.
When Li Cheng Zhi returned home he saw his sisters tear stained face and swollen cheeks. He asked her, "Who had the guts to beat my big sister. Did my brother in law slap you?"
Li Cheng Zhi was staying away in an apartment where he would not be disturbed by family. Seeing that he had returned home after a long time his mother could not contain her happiness.
"Cheng Zhi, look how thin you have become. You make mom worry about you. Will you stay here for few days?"
Without waiting for him to answer she gave orders to prepare his favorite dishes and get his room ready. Li Cheng Zhi always brought girls back home and so he preferred staying alone where he will not be disturbed by anyone and where he can come and go any time without being questioned.
Fu Ming Zhu said him, "Do you remember the one who left home seven years ago. It was her who did that to my precious daughter."
"Oh elder sister did that?"
Fu Ming Zhu told him, "She is not your elder sister. She is only your fathers' daughter but even he doesn't care about her and so she is no longer part of the family. Don't forget that"
She continued, "You are the only heir to Li family. And you can't be saying her as the eldest daughter. What if she comes to fight for inheritance?"
Li Cheng Zhi was interested in having loads of money, but not in earning it. He was happy as long as someone earned the money and gave it to him. He was not interested in being charge or working in the company.
He only visited the board meetings as share holder because his parents compelled him, and he never got involved with the company in any way.
He shook his head and walked off. When he walked to his room, his mother said behind him, "Rest in your room. If you want I will send some food up to your room. Take rest."
He knew there will be a huge scene at home tonight. This had happened from when he was young and he always found it entertaining. He was not much attached to his family members. He had seen Li Xin Yi bullying Li Zi Yun at school and he had also seen Li Xin Yi complain to their mom the exact opposite of what actually happened. He never interfered in any of it even though he knew the truth.
When Li Shu Chen arrived at home, Li Xin Yi was waiting for him with tears in her eyes and with a clear view of her face where he can see her clearly. As soon he saw her he asked "What happened to your face?"
"Father" she hugged him and started crying. Fu Ming Zhu said him "Look how your daughter has treated her sister.'"
"Li Zi Yun did this?" he asked shocked.
"Father she slapped me in front of everybody in public". Li Xin Yi started crying again.
Li Cheng Zhi came down and he saw the drama going on. He wanted to add more fuel to fire.
He said, "Father Look at this video"
It was the video of Li Zi Yun slapping Li Xin Yi.
