Chapter 367: 367: Su Hongxing, Never Dream of Entering the Gate of the Cao Family!_1

Cao Zhen glanced at Liu Qingyin again, then said, “I heard that Miss Su is unwell, so I came especially to see her. I came in a rush today, I didn’t bring a gift. I’ll make it up later.”

He ushered aside Liu Qingyin, sat down on the bedside, his eyes somber, looking intently at Su Hongxing.

Su Hongxing, as always, managed to remain calm, this time was no exception. Although Cao Zhen seemed strange, she thought little of it.

Then she heard Cao Zhen say, “Girl, it’s the Cao Family that has wronged you, causing you to wander. After much thought, I feel there is only one way I can repay you. I want to adopt you as my foster daughter, to give you a home. What do you think?”

Su Hongxing pressed her lips together tightly and looked directly at Cao Zhen.

This was probably the funniest joke she had ever heard.

The Cao Family had left her with nothing, and now Cao Zhen claimed he was going to adopt her as a daughter and give her a home. How could there be such absurd people and things in the world?!

“I know that the harm done to you in the past cannot be undone, and I know you do not like the Cao Family…”

“Since you know, don’t make such jokes in the future, I’ll take it that I never heard it!” Su Hongxing interrupted Cao Zhen’s words coldly.

Cao Zhen looked at Su Hongxing’s face with a complex gaze, “I’m not joking, I sincerely want to adopt you.”

“Aren’t you afraid of inviting a wolf into your house? Mr. Cao, I’m very kindly reminding you to stay away from me, because I’m a poisonous snake. If you let me into the Cao Family, I am likely to cause your family to break apart!” Su Hongxing said with a chilly smile.

A man like Cao Zhen is just like Ye Qilan, he probably loves power more than his own family.

If Cao Zhen thinks that she has the ability to keep Ye Qilan and therefore had the idea of adopting her, assuming that the alliance between the Cao and Ye families can continue this way, that would be too ridiculous.

After a moment of silence, Cao Zhen said: “Regardless, I still want to adopt you…”

“Dad—”

A shout came from the door, Cao Shiyu rushed to Cao Zhen and questioned: “Dad, I must have heard it wrong. There’s no way you’re adopting Su Hongxing, is that right?”

Everyone present knew that Su Hongxing and the Cao Family can’t coexist, how could her father even consider adopting Su Hongxing?!

“It’s good that you’re here, you need to know about this. I have made up my mind to adopt Miss Su, now it all depends on Miss Su’s wishes.”

Cao Zhen said, looking at Su Hongxing: “Miss Su, I will give you some time to think, don’t rush to reject my proposal. You have plenty of time, you can think it over slowly.”

“I disagree!! As long as I’m alive, Su Hongxing will never be allowed to step through the gates of the Cao Family!” Cao Shiyu shouted, her face pale with anger.

Just a short while ago, she had been so happy that her father had seen her off.

It turns out that her father’s sudden show of affection was meant to see Su Hongxing. She, as the cherished daughter of Cao Zhen, was actually less important than a discarded woman?

At this moment, she even doubted whether she was having a nightmare. If her mother knew about this, she would probably vomit blood from the anger.

“Miss Su, don’t take Shiyu’s words to heart, it’s all because I spoiled her too much.”

Cao Zhen turned his eyes to Cao Shiyu, his kind smile receded, his expression became serious: “Shiyu, don’t disturb your sister’s rest, I’ll take you home.”

“She is not my sister, I will never acknowledge Su Hongxing, it’s either her or me!” Cao Shiyu broke down, feeling like she was back to the day Ye Qilan eloped.

Last time it was Ye Qilan who slapped her face, this time it is her own father who had shamed her!
