Chapitre 24: Pain
Éditeur: Henyee Translations
Su Zheng looked at her with a sharp gaze, then lashed out at her, "What kind of attitude is this? You don't even address me as your father! Where are your basic manners? How did you grow up to be such a frivolous and shameless person?! How did our family give birth to a daughter like you?"
Before Su Qing could figure out what was going on, she was scolded by Su Zheng. His words were unpleasant and vicious. It was difficult to imagine that this was what a father would say to his daughter.
Fortunately, Su Qing's EQ was low, otherwise her heart would have been broken by her father, who was deceived with just a few words from others.
"What did I do?" Su Qing asked with a frown.
What Su Zheng hated most was her nonchalant expression. "Do you still need me to list them out for you?"
Su Qing looked at him. "Do you just believe whatever Su Yan says?"
Her master had said that if she met her father, he would probably treat her well, care for her, and smile at her.
But from the looks of it, that wasn't the case.
"Since you can do it, why are you still afraid of others talking about it? I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"
Su Qing looked at him for a long time before saying, "What right do you have?"
When Su Zheng saw her unrepentant expression, he said angrily, "Why should I? Because I'm your father! Has the Su family mistreated you in any way, or we haven't given you enough to eat or drink? Why did you have to go and seduce other men?!"
"What?" Su Qing asked in confusion. She didn't understand what Su Zheng was talking about.
"When has the Su family provided for me?" she asked.
These words pierced into Su Zheng's heart. He was furious and raised his hand. "How dare you!"
Su Qing didn't expect Su Zheng to hit her. She staggered to the side from the impact, her eyes filled with disbelief.
When Kong Yue heard Su Zheng's roar in the study, she hurriedly pushed the door open and rushed in. Behind her were Su Lu and Su Xing. Su Yan was at the back, and the entire group was met with this scene.
Su Qing's head was lowered, as though she was in a daze, while Su Zheng's hand was still trembling slightly.
"What are you doing?!" Kong Yue walked quickly to Su Qing's side. Her heart ached when she saw the red marks on Su Qing's face. She turned around and yelled at Su Zheng, "Are you crazy? Why did you hit her?"
"Dad! You…" Even Su Xing was surprised.
Su Lu walked in and looked at Su Zheng. "Why did you hit her? Didn't Su Yan already make things clear?" He turned to look at Su Yan, who was looking at Su Qing in shock.
Su Zheng actually hit Su Qing!
Were her words that effective?
Su Yan was secretly pleased, but she still pretended to be extremely concerned.
"Listen to what she's saying! I'm slapping you for being disrespectful and heartless!" Su Zheng retracted his hand and said sternly.
Su Qing felt a buzzing in her ears. This was the first time in her life that she had been slapped, and it came from her conceited and self-righteous father.
Pushing Kong Yue's hand away gently, she looked up at Su Zheng and then at Su Yan. She said slowly, "Did I say anything wrong? What has the Su family given me? What right do you have to criticize me like a father? You believed everything that Su Yan said. I was just stating facts. Why are you so angry?"
Su Qing's eyes were brimming with tears. Actually, she didn't understand why her heart ached so badly.
She didn't know that this feeling was called disappointment…
Tears streamed down Kong Yue's face. She held Su Qing's hand, her heart filled with guilt. Missing out on Su Qing's growth was already a lifelong pain.
Su Zheng didn't understand the pain of being a mother. What he cared about was the glory of the Su family, as well as his own pride.
The situation had already exceeded Su Yan's expectations.
Su Lu looked at Su Qing helplessly. If they were arguing about what happened this afternoon, he could still testify for her. However, the matter had now evolved into the painful wound that divided Su Qing and their parents. It wasn't something that could be explained and reasoned out.
She definitely has something to do with this matter! Su Lu thought to herself as she looked at Su Yan.
Su Xing stepped forward and patted Su Qing's head with a smile. "Sit down and rest first."
Su Xing looked at Kong Yue, who was weeping silently, and consoled her gently. "Mother, don't cry. Qingqing didn't even cry. Why are you so upset?"
