Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful
Chapter 295 - Best Friend Becomes a Mistress (2)
Chapter 295: Best Friend Becomes a Mistress (2)
“Have you had enough of all this?!” Finally, Zhao Shuncheng could no longer hold back himself. He pushed Zhao Youxi away with force and she fell to the ground. He said impatiently, “Why can’t I treat you and your mother like this?! Your mother is only one of my mistresses outside. When I’m happy, I’ll take her home and provide for her. When I’m not, I can simply drive all of you out of my house!”
“Father, you!” Zhao Youlin fell and sat on the ground. Her face was covered in tears. She looked up at the man, whom she felt was like a stranger to her. It seemed to her that this was her first time getting to know him after so many years.
“Don’t look at me like this! I haven’t held you accountable for many things because you are my daughter. Yet, you insist on banging your head to the wall. You keep challenging my boundaries. So, you can’t blame me on this!” As Zhao Shuncheng was speaking, he pulled Sun Qin up who was beside him. He turned around and walked inside the room.
Zhao Youxi sat on the ground in a daze. While she was still wondering what she should do next, Zhao Shuncheng dashed out from the house in a fit of rage and flung a set of documents at her.
Zhao Youxi exclaimed in surprise. She picked up the documents in a flurry of motion. When she read the documents, her pupils shrank. Her hands shivered uncontrollably. “This… This is…”
“Can’t you read it yourself?! How dare you take advantage of the convenience of your own status, as well as mine to misappropriate the public funds by seducing the company’s accountant?! In the end, the project was a failure resulting in huge losses. You keep calling Sun Qian a wench, do you really think you’re better than her?! I wonder why you’re even my daughter! The company held me accountable for this issue, and demanded that I resign on my own soon. Otherwise…”
The more Zhao Shuncheng talked about this, the angrier he was. He almost wanted to strike Zhao Youxi to death on his own.
Today, he had been called to the president’s office. No one knew how pissed off he was when his elder brother had threatened him to hand in his own resignation. If not for the fact that Li Hongyu had at least raised a rather successful son for him, he would have long kicked his daughter out of the house.
Zhao Shuncheng forced himself to hold back his anger and had gone to Sun Qian to seek comfort. Who would have thought Zhao Youxi came to him at that moment. She had even struck his woman and humiliated her. Zhao Shuncheng was pushed over the edge and he held her accountable for everything.
Only then did Zhao Youxi panicked. She reached out to grab Zhao Shuncheng’s thigh. “Father, I…”
Zhao Shuncheng moved to the side and avoided her. He evaded Zhao Youxi’s outstretched hand toward him. He smirked, “If not for my respect to your mother and Youming, I don’t even want to own you. That’s all for today. Get lost now. Go back home and reflect on yourself.”
‘Show respect to mother and Youming…’ “Wait, Father!” Zhao Youxi immediately looked up. When she saw Zhao Shuncheng’s silhouette, showing no sign of warmth, she grew increasingly panicked. She lunged at Zhao Shuncheng in a flurry of motion while yelling, “Father, Father, I was wrong. I knew that I was wrong… Please, I beg you… I beg you to save Mother… I beg you… If you don’t give your hand, Mother is definitely doomed!”
Zhao Shuncheng paused mid-stride upon hearing Zhao Youxi’s wailing. He turned his head around in bewilderment and cast a glance at her. He asked in a low voice, “Your mother? What happened to your mother?”
Tear marks were all over Zhao Youxi’s face. She hugged Zhao Shuncheng’s thigh tightly. She sobbed, “Mother… Mother has been taken away by the police officers!”
“Police officers?” Zhao Shuncheng’s expression instantly changed. He pulled Zhao Youxi up and asked, “Why has she been taken away by the police officers? Is it because of the things you did previously…?”
Zhao Youxi was stunned. By the time she returned to her senses and realized what Zhao Shuncheng was actually referring to, she hurriedly shook her head.
Zhao Shuncheng heaved a sigh of relief. Still, his expression looked troubled. “If not that incident, then why did the police officers arrest your mother all of a sudden?”
“They…” Looking at Zhao Shuncheng’s face that had turned black, Zhao Youxi no longer dared to treat him as a father who used to pamper her. She looked hesitant, not willing to speak out the truth.
Zhao Shuncheng had been waiting for a long time, yet Zhao Youxi still did not tell him the reason why. His face darkened and he was about to leave.
Zhao Youxi got worked up. She could not care much less about others and shouted, “The police officers said… They said Mother hired contract killers… They wanted to send Mother to… Send her to…”
“Hired contract killers?” Zhao Shuncheng’s face was so dark that it was darker than night. “What did she hire contract killers for?”
Looking at Zhao Shuncheng’s extremely furious face, Zhao Youxi abruptly recalled his words when he shouted angrily at them when they got into an argument last time. She stammered, “Father, don’t you know what kind of person Mother is? How could she possibly hire contract killers? It must be… it has to be someone who has purposely set her up. Father, you have to save Mother! You got to save her!”
This time, Zhao Shuncheng was not deceived by Zhao Youxi so easily. He leaned closer to Zhao Youxi’s face and asked, “Let me ask you, who is the person that your mother wanted to kill?”
If this were the past, Zhao Shuncheng definitely would not suspect the gentle woman who had accompanied him for years to commit to such deeds. However, ever since he experienced the event last time, the scale in his heart which had skewed to one side over the past had regained its balance. In fact, it had skewed to the opposite side.
How benevolent would the mother of a child who nearly killed someone be?
Therefore, right after Zhao Youxi spoke, Zhao Shuncheng trusted her words. However, certain things did not happen out of nowhere, especially things related to life and death.
Under Zhao Shuncheng’s glare, Zhao Youxi could no longer hold back herself. She replied to him in shivers, “The person is…. The person is Zhao Youlin… Father! Father! There must have been some misunderstanding! Ahhh!”
Before Zhao Youxi finished speaking, Zhao Shuncheng had already kicked her to the side. His face turned red as he pointed at Zhao Youxi. He fell speechless for a long time.
“Big Brother Zhao, don’t get mad! Calm down… Don’t hurt yourself.” Sun Qian had been hiding at the side. When she saw this, she hurriedly dashed over. She reached out and patted Zhao Shuncheng’s back. She helped him to calm his breath while comforting him, “Big Brother Zhao, don’t get angry. Listen to Youxi’s explanation first. There could be some misunderstanding between them.”
“What misunderstanding can it be?! What can it be?!” Zhao Shuncheng pushed away Sun Qian’s hand which she used to help to calm his breath. He turned his head around and looked at Zhao Youxi fiercely. “Indeed, that witch cannot tolerate Youlin. She is always finding ways to kill her. Poor me, I never noticed even the slightest bit of this before. She has deceived me for so many years! You go back and tell that venomous woman that I won’t save her. Ask her to go to hell!”
After Zhao Shuncheng finished speaking, regardless of how Zhao Youxi reacted, he hugged Sun Qian, turned his body around and walked away.
Zhao Youxi’s expression changed drastically. She wanted to lunge at him and pulled at him, but was blocked when the door was shut mercilessly.
Before she fell down, she saw Sun Qian’s face through the gap of the stainless steel door. There was no sign of humility or frailty on Sun Qian’s face. Instead, she looked as seductive yet sinister as a viper.
