My mind suddenly cleared up.
If Tang Tianxiang really wanted to do this for my own good, there would be no need for him to hide it from Mingsi and act without my knowledge.
Rather than letting me go to the south to gain experience, his more realistic idea was to let me leave the capital.
Bitterness spread in my heart. I stared at Tang Tianxiang and asked word by word, "You've given me so many excuses, but you actually just want me to leave the capital, right?"
Tang Tianxiang was silent and did not answer me.
I still didn't give up and asked, "You insisted on me leaving the capital, is it because of Tang Jun?"
Tang Tianxiang's expression changed slightly, perhaps because he expected that I would question him bluntly.
I looked at Tang Tianxiang's reaction and guessed the answer in my heart.
Tang Tianxiang frowned and did not answer my question directly.
He said in a low voice: "Last time, Junjun fell from the building. Fortunately, she was lucky and nothing serious happened. Otherwise, would you really be able to live with your conscience?"
My heart tightened. After all, he still felt that it was me who pushed Tang Jun off the terrace.
Tang Tianxiang looked at me with a deep gaze and sighed helplessly: "You made such a big mistake, it's understandable that Junjun is unwilling to forgive you. If you stay here, it will only further intensify the conflict. It's better to stay away from her and let time heal everything."
Tang Tianxiang's words extinguished the last bit of fantasy in my heart.
He refused to believe me from beginning to end!
Even though I have reiterated to him many times that I did not push Tang Jun, he just regarded my explanation as quibbling.
I felt a chill in my heart, and suddenly realized that the plots in those melodramatic TV dramas where biological daughters are not as good as adopted daughters were not false.
I smiled sarcastically and met Tang Tianxiang's gaze without being servile or arrogant. "From the moment I returned to the Tang family, have you ever treated me as your own daughter?"
Recalling the scenes when I first met Tang Tianxiang, he was both indifferent and polite to me, as if I were more like a guest visiting the Tang family. Even my admission to Huake was arranged by Mingsi.
I simply laid it all out and questioned him directly, "You don't want me to return to the Tang family, do you? And you certainly don't want me to join Huake, right?"
Tang Tianxiang frowned and gave me a perfunctory reply: "Why do you think so? I made this decision for your own good. I just don't want to create a rift between you sisters."
Tang Tianxiang's reasons didn't convince me at all. I retorted, "If you really care about me, you should find out the truth about Tang Jun's fall instead of just believing her one-sided story. If you want to ease the relationship between Tang Jun and me, then you should mediate, not ask me to leave the capital."
All my dissatisfaction with Tang Tianxiang came flooding back at this moment. He didn't give me any warmth of home, but instead kept widening the distance between him and me.
After hearing what I said, Tang Tianxiang was obviously displeased, and his eyes were full of impatience.
He continued to answer perfunctorily, "I naturally have my reasons for doing this. Anyway, I have decided to transfer you to the Southern Headquarters."
He knew he couldn't convince me, so he started to use his position as chairman to put pressure on me.
But I prefer to be soft-hearted and not hard-hearted.
I told him clearly, "I don't accept it. I won't go to the Southern Headquarters. If you truly believe I've done something wrong and don't want me to stay at Huake, you can just fire me. Otherwise, I'm going to stay in Beijing and do what I'm supposed to do, to prove my ability and that the choice I made was right!"
