Xia Zhiguang could not understand why his daughter, who had always been obedient to him, had suddenly announced that she wanted to cut ties with him. Now, the whole of City W knew about it, and this made him lose face. What was worse was that she had actually called the police to arrest her own sister, causing her poor daughter to still be suffering in the detention center. She, on the other hand, was hiding somewhere and not answering her phone.

Zhuang Meiyu was worried about her daughter. She cried at the side and said, “It’s useless for you to say this now. If you really can’t do it, just give her 3% of the shares. Otherwise, what can we do? Boohoo…”

Xia Zhiguang was already in a fit of anger, and when he heard Zhuang Meiyu’s cries, he became even more frustrated. He said impatiently, “It’s impossible for her to take my shares!”

Zhuang Meiyu was also anxious and cried, “What if you don’t give it to her? Zhixi is still being detained. Are you going to watch your daughter suffer? Xia Zhiguang, how can you be so ruthless as a father!”

“What are you talking about? Zhixi is my daughter too. How can I not be worried!” Xia Zhiguang replied angrily. He turned to leave.

When Zhuang Meiyu saw her husband’s expression, the grievance in her heart deepened. She wailed and pounced on Xia Zhiguang. “Xia Zhiguang, don’t you even want to talk to me now? I’ve been cursed for so long because of you. Even though you’re married, I’ve still taken care of you for so many years. I’ve given birth to children for you and thought about you in every way. Now, you actually find me annoying? You heartless man!” As she spoke, she punched Xia Zhiguang and cried even harder.

Xia Zhiguang was beaten until he covered his head and fled. Finally, he couldn’t take it anymore and roared at her, “Enough! Are you crazy?!”

“Scumbag, I was blind to be so loyal to you. You heartless, heartless man!” Zhuang Meiyu had completely fallen into a state of madness. She threw everything she saw. The cups on the coffee table and the pillows on the sofa were all thrown to the ground. The room was instantly in a mess.

Xia Zhiguang finally couldn’t take it anymore. He cursed, “Crazy.” Then he left the villa without looking back.

After a while, Zhuang Meiyu calmed down a little. She swore to herself that even if no one helped her, she would definitely save her daughter!

… .

The next day, Xia Zhixi was released. It was said that she was no longer a suspect. Zhuang Meiyu personally drove to pick up her daughter.

After returning to the Xia family villa, Xia Zhixi quickly took a hot shower. God knew how uncomfortable it was to be in a smelly and dirty place like the detention center. After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, Xia Zhixi went downstairs. She sat on the sofa and said worriedly, “Mom, if Dad finds out that you gave your shares to Xia Chenxing without permission, he will definitely lose his temper.”

“So what if he loses his temper? You’re my only daughter. How can I watch you go to such a place? He can lose his temper however he wants. He can’t just chase us out of the Xia family.”

“Mom, but you should really listen to Dad about this. I think even if Xia Chenxing takes the shares, she won’t let it go so easily,” Xia Zhixi said. She had thought about it carefully when she was in the detention center. She felt that Xia Chenxing had come prepared this time, but now that she had given up the shares, there was no room for regret.

Seeing that her daughter did not understand her, Zhuang Meiyu was furious. She said angrily, “Listen to your father? Do you think you can go home now if we listened to him? I’m doing this for you!”

At this moment, Xia Zhixi returned. The moment he entered, he saw his daughter, who was safe and sound on the sofa. He asked in surprise, “Zhixi, are you alright?”

Xia Zhixi immediately gave Zhuang Meiyu a look, then smiled sweetly and said, “Yes, Dad, I’ve made you worry. I’m fine now. It was Brother Yisen’s family who pulled strings to let me out.”

Hearing this, Xia Zhiguang heaved a sigh of relief. He walked over and looked at his daughter guiltily. “My good daughter, I’m useless. You’ve suffered.”

Xia Zhixi had long known the ins and outs of the matter. She knew how hypocritical Xia Zhiguang was, but she was still living in the Xia family, so she had to please him. She secretly pinched her thigh hard, then said with tears in her eyes, “Daddy, I’m fine. In order to help the Xia family and Daddy, I can bear this grievance. Unfortunately, I still messed up with Boss Zhao in the end. I’m sorry, Daddy. I’m useless.”

The more Xia Zhixi said this, the more guilty Xia Zhiguang felt. He knew that he owed his daughter this time. He said firmly, “My dear daughter, don’t worry. Daddy will take revenge for you!”
