Chapter 14 - 14 Father's Love, Has Turned into Obsession

Editor: Atlas Studios

“Really! It’s just that he drank too much and mistook you for someone else? Did you have to be so cruel and ruthless, nearly killing Shijie with your own hands!?”

Gu Qiangwei hadn’t yet recovered from her father’s indifference when Chen Peifang’s shrill voice came from the staircase! A pair of angry eyes seemed like they wanted to devour her alive!

Turning her head at the sound, Gu Qiangwei coldly glanced at her, then turned her head back, her gaze still on Gu Zhendong’s face.

“So you think, Gu Shijie got drunk last night, mistook me for someone else, and that’s why he did what he did?” The next time she spoke, her icy tone was tinged with a touch of misery.

Looking at his daughter in front of him, Gu Zhendong knew she had misunderstood Shijie, and it was inevitable that she would be angry.

“Yes, Qiangwei, don’t be mad at your brother, ah.”

“Heh…” Gu Qiangwei laughed instead, a smile so miserable that even she didn’t know if she was crying or laughing.

Yes, from the moment this mother and son entered, when in her father’s heart was there ever a place for her? She had actually believed that after such an incident, her father would definitely stand up for her, but it turned out to be just her wishful thinking.

Seeing the bitter smile on her face, Gu Zhendong took it as if she still had anger and grievances in her heart.

He tried to comfort her as much as possible, “Qiangwei, your brother got hurt, Xu Ma said it was because you hit him—”

“So you plan to replace him and come to me with accusations?”

Gu Zhendong paused, “Dad didn’t mean that.”

“What’s wrong with making accusations!? Shouldn’t I? He is your brother, and this is how you treat him as his older sister? Or are you jealous because he’s a boy, and he has taken away your father’s love from you?”

“Not taken, stolen! If it weren’t for you and your son showing up out of the blue, my mother wouldn’t have vanished into thin air!”

Enduring for ten years, Gu Qiangwei finally exploded at that moment!

She even suspected that her mother might have been harmed by Chen Peifang!

“Qiangwei!” Before Gu Qiangwei finished speaking, Gu Zhendong already couldn’t help but interrupt her sharply.

“And you!”

Without waiting for Gu Zhendong to speak further, Gu Qiangwei suddenly turned around and roared at him!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“When you were in dire straits with your career, who was the one who stood by you unwaveringly? It was my mom! Not Chen Peifang! She just bore you a son, is that enough to blind you? And because he is your ‘son’ and I am your ‘daughter,’ you feel everything he did to me was just because he was drunk, and mistook me for someone else?”

“What else then? Want me to believe a brother would bully his sister? Qiangwei, I know you’ve never liked your stepmother and brother, but he’s your brother. If he wasn’t drunk, on what grounds do you expect me to believe he would bully his own sister?”

Looking at his daughter, Gu Zhendong was the picture of heartache and affliction.

Gu Qiangwei just gave a bitter smile.

No matter what she said, this father would never take her side. And as to why, even about that she couldn’t be clear.

But what she firmly believed was that Gu Shijie had not been drunk last night at all. He clearly called out her name – how could he possibly have mistaken her for someone else?

In the face of her father, Gu Qiangwei was utterly disheartened.

Her heart ached as she closed her eyes, then opened them having made a decision.

Turning around, she stepped forward, her presence murderous as she walked towards Chen Peifang.
