"Dad, I've got my eye on a little dress..." Wei Lili said in a coquettish tone.
"Okay, after we finish eating, Dad will give you 200 yuan. You can buy whatever you want," Wei Zhentian said, looking at her with doting eyes.
200 yuan...
Wei Juan's face turned pale and translucent, and her hands clenched tightly at the cuffs of her sleeves.
Last time, she asked her father for two cents to buy a book, but he sternly refused.
But Wei Lili wanted to buy a dress, and Wei Zhentian gave her 200 yuan without hesitation.
Why is there such a big difference between daughters?
Many times, Wei Juan wondered if she was really her father's biological daughter.
If so, then why was he so cruel to himself...?
Wei Juan clenched her fists tightly, and her pale and haggard face became somewhat transparent.
"Dad," Wei Juan said, pursing her dry lips.
Wei Zhentian then noticed Wei Juan not far away, and his face instantly darkened. "Have you been fooling around outside enough? You still know how to come back!"
The warm and inviting atmosphere in the restaurant was instantly shattered by Wei Juan's arrival.
At that moment, Wei Juan felt that she was superfluous in this family, an outsider.
Wei Juan felt a deep pain in her heart. She clenched her fists, took a few steps forward, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke, "My sister pushed me into the lake today, and I almost drowned."
She wanted to see if Wei Zhentian still had any fatherly affection for her, or if he still cared about her in the slightest.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't do such a thing. You clearly fell into the lake by accident. How can you blame me?" Wei Lili glared at Wei Juan with dissatisfaction, then hugged Wei Zhentian's arm and acted coquettishly, "Dad, look at her. All she does is look down on me and slander me. She must be jealous of how good you are to me, so she's targeting me like this."
"How could you lie at such a young age?" Wei Lili's mother glared at Wei Juan with displeasure, then looked at Wei Zhentian beside her. "Zhentian, this child needs to be properly disciplined. If he becomes a habitual liar, what will become of him?"
"No! It was clearly you..." Before Wei Juan could finish speaking, Wei Zhentian coldly rebuked her, "Enough, shut up!"
"You're always causing trouble! It's always something to do! I used to think you were a decent and well-behaved child, but I never imagined you'd learn to lie! You'll say anything to frame your sister!"
Wei Juan opened her mouth, but seeing Wei Zhentian's stern and somewhat disgusted gaze, all the words that were stuck in her throat were swallowed back down.
She gave a wry smile and curled the corners of her lips.
Faced with himself and Wei Lili, the father never believed in himself; he always steadfastly chose to believe in Wei Lili.
Even if Wei Lili really is going to kill me.
Even though she had expected this outcome, she still held onto a sliver of hope for her father and couldn't help but voice her grievances.
She had naively hoped that her father would stand up for her and support her, but now it seemed that it was all wishful thinking.
In the end, they only brought shame upon themselves.
Wei Juan's dim gaze inadvertently met Wei Lili's provocative gaze, and for a moment she felt even more like a clown.
