"What's wrong?" Shi Nian looked at Aunt Fen beside her.
Aunt Fen looked a little off: "It's nothing, Madam, you should go and rest, it's so late."
"I just heard something being smashed," Shi Nian said.
Aunt Fen acted as if she hadn't heard Shi Nian's words and urged her to go and rest.
Shi Nian didn't ask any more questions, but walked straight towards the source of the sound.
Aunt Fen immediately became anxious.
She caught up with him and said, "Madam, it's the master's father. He and the master are in the reception room. It's not convenient for you to go over there. You should go and rest."
Shi Nian paused for a moment.
Has Zhan Xiuchen's father arrived?
Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, obscuring her eyes and brows.
Although the man kept saying he wanted to marry her.
But from beginning to end, apart from Zhan Xiuchen's sister, she and his family never met him.
So perhaps she really wasn't suitable to appear in front of her father.
Shi Nian turned and was about to leave.
But then, the next second, Zhan Leiting's furious voice rang out: "Zhan Xiuchen! If it weren't for me, if it weren't for the Zhan family! Do you think you'd be where you are today! Tell me, what kind of attitude is this?!"
The words, penetrating Shi Nian's eardrums, rushed into Shi Nian's brain.
Shi Nian, who was about to leave, abruptly stopped herself.
Zhan Leiting's furious words reminded her of Lin Xiaoying.
These words sound so familiar.
When she had just grown up and started to disobey Lin Xiaoying, Lin Xiaoying had scolded her so harshly.
They say she's gotten too big for her britches and won't listen to them anymore.
After the angry rebuke, he was given a brutal beating.
The next second, Shi Nian's breathing became rapid.
She ran straight to the reception room.
Aunt Fen's expression changed immediately upon seeing this.
She came specifically to stop Shi Nian, to prevent Shi Nian from going over, and to take Shi Nian back to her bedroom.
This was instructed by the President after his father came.
Can........
"Oh, Madam!" Aunt Fen stamped her foot and ran over to Shi Nian.
However, she was getting old after all, and how could she keep up with the times?
In the blink of an eye, Shi Nian's figure disappeared from the vast Jade Palace.
........
Reception room.
Zhan Leiting was still scolding Zhan Xiuchen.
"Zhan Xiuchen, you are where you are today because you are the son of Zhan Leiting. It is the prestige and connections that the Zhan family has accumulated over the years that have enabled you to get to where you are today!"
"But look at yourself now, do you have even the slightest respect for me!"
Zhan Xiuchen didn't speak, but just stared at Zhan Leiting with his dark eyes.
Those dark eyes remained devoid of any emotional fluctuation, yet they possessed a sharp edge.
Zhan Leiting was stunned for a moment.
Being looked at by his son like that gave him the illusion that he had been seen through in an instant.
His words were indeed an exaggeration.
The Zhan family certainly has prestige and connections.
However, Zhan Xiuchen's rise to president was not entirely due to the Zhan family.
Because of the Zhan family, and his father, Zhan Wang had always been the one being supported.
Zhan Xiuchen never said that.
But that doesn't mean he was unaware.
A hint of guilt flashed in Zhan Leiting's eyes.
But like a dragonfly skimming the water, it quickly disappears.
Even if you understand, so what?
As a father, he has the right to choose which son to support.
As a son, I cannot have any complaints.
The son respects his father.
It has always been a matter of course since ancient times.
Zhan Leiting spoke again.
This time, the voice wasn't as furious as before.
Instead, he revealed a guilty conscience and a show of bravado: "Xiu Chen, no matter what, I am your father. As your son, you must respect your father and cannot have this attitude!"
"No matter what position you reach, you should do whatever your father says, because what is your father? Your father is heaven! He is earth!"
Just as Zhan Leiting finished speaking, a female voice suddenly rang out.
The woman's voice was filled with sarcasm towards Zhan Leiting's words!
It's filled with disapproval!
"A man earns his son's respect not because of his status as a father, but because of what he does as a father that earns his son's respect and admiration!"
"Otherwise, once someone has conceived a child and become a father, it's ridiculous that they have to respect and look up to them!"
Accompanied by the sound, Shi Nian walked in.
Her eyes were filled with contempt.
She had just heard Zhan Leiting's last words.
This is something Shi Nian cannot agree with.
Whether it's the father or the mother.
What earns respect from children is never just a title.
Rather, it's about what they did as fathers and mothers!
It's ridiculous to think that just because you're a father, even if you've never loved your child, you can make your son submit to you just by virtue of that identity!
Shi Nian's appearance surprised both Lin Yazhu and Zhan Leiting.
"Who is this?" Zhan Leiting asked after a moment.
"Ah Feng, take Madam away." Zhan Xiuchen's brows furrowed imperceptibly.
After Zhan Leiting arrived.
He specifically instructed the servant to tell Shi Nian not to come this way.
But to my surprise, Shi Nian still came.
Ah Feng immediately walked over, but unexpectedly Zhan Leiting stopped him a step ahead: "Who exactly is this woman!"
