Chapter 53: Father and Daughter Like Strangersi

Translator: 549690339

The next afternoon, Su Hongxing took her rest break to house hunt.

She was in desperate need of a place to call her own. She couldn’t rely on Xiao Ji, Ye Qilan, or anyone else anymore.

Only by learning to be independent, both mentally and financially, would she no longer fear any sudden changes.

Rental costs in the city were high. With only ten thousand yuan that Xiao Ji had lent her, she was left penny-pinching.

She knew she couldn’t rush this, she needed to take her time.

Lately, she’d been impatient and off balance, constantly provoking Ye Qilan. With a man like Ye Qilan, it would be better to play a roundabout approach first.

After all, if Ye Qilan were riled up, it wouldn’t benefit her in any way.

On her way back to the Ye Family, she received a phone call from Zhou Luhe on the bus.

“The third day of next month is my birthday, and I’m going to marry Xiao Ji on that day. Do you want me to send the wedding invitation to you personally?”

Zhou Luhe’s voice was somewhat high-pitched.

Anything that could provoke Su Hongxing excited her.

She loved to see Su Hongxing trampled underfoot, utterly helpless!

“If you want to deliver it yourself, then make the trip, I don’t care.” Su Hongxing lazily replied, looking out to the busy streets through the bus window.

The mid-summer sun was scorching the earth, as if to burn out all the light and heat.

She watched coldly, and laughed coldly too.

“We’re sisters after all. You’ll be there on my wedding day, right?” Zhou Luhe’s laugh shook her voice a little.

Just the thought of beautiful herself standing next to Su Hongxing, who couldn’t even compete with an ugly duckling, made her wish the day would come quickly.

Su Hongxing replied indifferently, “You should know me well by now, would 1 personally be at your wedding to congratulate you?”

Zhou Luhe paused, feeling that Su Hongxing’s reaction was way too fiat. After all, she had taken Xiao Ji, the man Su Hongxing loved the most. How could this woman react so lightly?

“Regardless, I will ensure you be there to bless Xiao Ji and me to grow old together!” After saying this, Zhou Luhe hung up.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Just as Su Hongxing thought she could finally have a brief moment of peace, another call came in.

Seeing the caller ID, she furrowed her brow slightly as she was not at all in the mood to answer it.

There was no need to guess why he was calling she.

The caller seemed patient, as if they knew what she was thinking. After two full minutes of ringing, Su Hongxing finally answered, “Speak up, what is it?” “What’s with your attitude? I am your father!” Zhou Peng could not hold his face up as he heard Su Hongxing’s cold tone, and naturally, his opening remark was not pleasant.

“Get to the point, I don’t have much time to deal with irrelevant people.” Su Hongxing replied coldly.

In her heart, Zhou Peng was even worse than a stranger. His glory, his power, had nothing to do with her, Su Hongxing.

Zhou Peng was livid, “You ungrateful daughter…”

“Mr. Zhou, aside from our blood ties, we have no bond. You must have mistaken me for your daughter. Zhou Luhe is your daughter, my surname is Su, not Zhou!”

Su Hongxing was neither angry nor upset. As for Zhou Peng, she cut off any obligation or gratitude to him years ago. Moreover, she didn’t appreciate him for bringing her into this world.

Zhou Peng turned blue in the face, furious. Every conversation he had with Su Hongxing left him fuming.

Where was the obedient, sensible, and pretty child from his memories?
