“You are too much! He merely drank too much and mistakenly treated you as someone else. Do you have to be so cruel? You nearly let Shijie die in your hands!”

Gu Qiangwei still had not come back to reality from her father’s coldness when Chen Peifang’s sharp voice came from the staircase! Glaring with her pair of furious eyes, Chen Peifang wished so much that she could swallow her wholly!

Gu Qiangwei heard the voice and turned her head, sweeping a cold glance at her. She quickly turned around, and her line of sight landed on Gu Zhendong’s face.

“So you think that Gu Shijie drank too much last night, which is why he mistook me for someone else. That was why he did that?” She voiced out again. However, her cold tone contained a tinge of despair.

As Gu Zhendong looked at his daughter in front of him, he knew that she had misunderstood Shijie. It was inevitable that she would be angry.

“Yes, Qiangwei, don’t be angry with your brother.”

“Haha…” However, Gu Qiangwei laughed. Her smile was so desolate that she herself did not know whether she was crying or laughing.

Right.

Ever since this pair of mother and son entered the house, when did she have a place in her father’s heart? She actually believed that her father would make a decision for her after something like this happened. In the end, it was just her wishful thinking.

When Gu Zhendong saw the tinge of bitterness in her smile, he treated it as her still being angry in her heart and feeling wronged.

He tried to comfort her as much as possible. “Qiangwei, your brother is injured. I heard from Aunt Xu that he was hit by you—”

“So you plan to attack me with condemnation on his behalf?”

Gu Zhendong paused. “I don’t mean this.”

Chen Peifang added on. “What’s wrong with attacking you with condemnation? Shouldn’t it be the case? He’s your brother. How can you, as a sister, treat him like this? Or are you jealous that he is a boy who has deprived you of fatherly love!”

“It is not depriving but seizing! If not for you and your son suddenly coming out from nowhere, my mom also would not have suddenly disappeared from the face of the Earth!”

Gu Qiangwei had endured for 10 years. At this moment, she finally exploded!

She even felt that her mother very likely was killed by Chen Peifang!

“Qiangwei!” Gu Qiangwei had not finished talking when Gu Zhendong, who was at the side, stopped her.

“And you!”

Gu Qiangwei did not wait for Gu Zhendong to continue talking. She suddenly turned her face and directed a roar at him!

“When your career was in distress, who did not leave your side and stayed with you? It was my mom! It was not Chen Peifang! Is it because she gave birth to a son for you? And this made your eyes blind? Is it also because he is your ‘son’ but I am your ‘daughter’, so you feel that everything he did to me was only because he was drunk and had mistaken me for someone else?”

“What else? You want me to believe that your brother bullied his sister? Qiangwei, I know that you have always disliked your brother and Aunt Chen, but he is your brother. If not for him being drunk, what kind of reason do you want me to believe in that your brother would bully his own biological sister?”

As Gu Zhendong watched his daughter, he had a devastated look.

However, Gu Qiangwei smiled bitterly.

No matter what she said, it was impossible for this father to stand on her side, and she also could never figure out why.

But she firmly believed that Gu Shijie was simply not drunk last night. He even shouted her name. How was it possible for him to treat her as someone else?

When Gu Qiangwei faced her father, she was completely dispirited.

She closed her eyes heartbreakingly. When she opened them again, she had already made a decision.

She turned around. She got closer step by step. She was filled with anger as she walked over to Chen Peifang.
