Ni Sitian received Ni Qianshan's gaze, and her body trembled involuntarily, as she had been suppressed by his power for many years.
When she was little, if he looked at her like that, he would usually pull her over and hit her the next second.
She is particularly sensitive to pain because she was beaten in the past, and fear plays a large part in her mind.
Especially regarding injections, He Cuiyun used to prick her in places where no one could see her with a small needle.
“Tingchuan,” Ni Sitian felt a chill run down her spine as she recalled those events, and whispered to Xu Tingchuan, “I’m feeling a little unwell.”
Xu Tingchuan reached out and took Ni Sitian's hand, feeling the coldness of her palm. He then helped her stand up and said to Ni Qianshan, "Father-in-law, Sitian isn't feeling well, so we'll be leaving now. Please make yourselves at home."
What could Ni Qianshan say? He could only nod repeatedly and watch them leave.
The three of them were so angry during the meal that they didn't eat much. Now that Xu Tingchuan was gone, Ni Qianshan sat back down.
"Old Ni, that girl brought her man here today to intimidate us! Aren't you going to do anything about her?" He Cuiyun pounded the table in anger when she saw Ni Qianshan still having the mood to eat.
"This shows that Xu Tingchuan values her, which is a good thing. I didn't expect that girl to actually have some ability." After calming down, Ni Qianshan thought to himself that as long as he treats Ni Sitian kindly in the future, in time, Ni Sitian will bring him benefits from Xu Tingchuan.
"What's so good about her? Look at her behavior today, she's a complete ingrate, she doesn't appreciate her family's kindness at all." He Cuiyun was very resentful that Ni Sitian married so well, while Ni Ziqi was still unmarried.
“As long as I’m still her father, I don’t believe she’ll dare disobey me.” Ni Qianshan raised his chin, confidently assertive.
He Cuiyun felt extremely uncomfortable seeing that he was now valuing Ni Sitian, and couldn't help but say, "What if she finds out that she's not you at all..."
Ni Qianshan slammed his chopsticks on the table and shouted, "What did you say!"
He Cuiyun was still somewhat intimidated by Ni Qianshan, and shrank her neck, muttering softly, "I'm just afraid of what might happen."
Ni Ziqi watched them argue, bit her lip, and suddenly said, "Dad, you'd be better off relying on me than on that girl."
"Rely on you? You can't even handle that President Chen!" Ni Qianshan said, somewhat annoyed. If Ni Ziqi hadn't been unable to handle that old man, he wouldn't have been so humiliated and forced to leave his position, returning to China in disgrace.
Ni Ziqi's face turned ashen when she heard what he said, but she still said, "If I can successfully steal Qin Mubei from her, I can do it a second time."
Ni Qianshan scoffed, not believing her. Although Qin Mubei had slept with her, his heart was still with Ni Sitian.
He is now increasingly regretting that he made the wrong bet, raising the useless Ni Ziqi and mistreating Ni Sitian. He will have to make it up to her in the future.
"You two should stop trying to upset Sitian!" Ni Qianshan warned the two of them after making up his mind.
Ni Ziqi clenched her fists tightly. She had to find a way to prove herself useful to him as soon as possible, otherwise her status at home would be the same as Ni Sitian's.
How could she let Ni Sitian ride roughshod over her? She would never let such a thing happen!
