As for the Cheng family, Cheng Yue learned that Cheng Yi had framed He Jing and summoned Cheng Yi back overnight.
He looked at Cheng Yi with a pained expression: "Xiao Yi, what you've done has disappointed your father greatly."
Cheng Yi had already prepared his explanation and delivered it, but Cheng Yue did not believe him.
He shook his head, his face filled with sorrow: "Xiaoyi, although your father is old, he is not senile yet. If you are truly repentant, you should tell your father the truth."
Cheng Yi felt extremely impatient. She already had enough of her own troubles these past few days, and Cheng Yue still had to add to it.
She was clearly angry and embarrassed, and said, "Dad, do you believe all the rumors outside, but not me? I'm your own daughter!"
Seeing her firm attitude and complete disregard for his feelings, Cheng Yue felt increasingly disappointed, and his tone hardened as well: "Whether I believe you or not, I take back what I said before. I will not allow you to get involved in the entertainment industry again. From now on, you will stay by my side and learn how to manage the company from me."
He believes that the bad atmosphere in the entertainment industry corrupted her, which is why she became like this.
Cheng Yi refused. She had worked hard in the entertainment industry all these years and finally achieved her current status.
She refused almost without thinking: "No, I'm not willing! I want to continue pursuing my dreams."
Cheng Yue gripped the newspaper in his hand before continuing with a cold, almost ruthless tone: "If you don't come back, I will shut down your Starlight Path, disband your team, and acquire your company."
Originally, Chengxin Entertainment was established by him secretly through Lao and Chengyi to protect Chengyi. Chengyi was unaware of this and thought it was her own connections in the entertainment industry, but it wasn't.
After Cheng Yi's reputation plummeted, Lao came to ask for his opinion, asking if he should step in to help reverse the negative public opinion surrounding Cheng Yi. It was he who clearly said no, and that's how things developed to this point.
Even when she took back Orange Heart Entertainment, it was out of his pity that he let her go, but he felt that Cheng Yi couldn't continue like this, otherwise she would eventually go astray and fall into a quagmire.
Cheng Yi opened her eyes in disbelief, covering her mouth with her hand to stop the tears from falling: "Dad, how could you do this?"
Cheng Yue replied firmly, "I'm doing this for your own good."
Having inherited the Cheng Group, she is now the helmsman of the Cheng Group. How is she inferior to an actress who appears in public?
Cheng Yi could no longer hold back her emotions and broke down, her eyes filled with anger and accusation: "You say it's for my own good, but I think you're doing it for someone else. From beginning to end, I've never been as important to you as He Jing!"
"Don't think I don't know that while you pretend to love me, you've always been thinking about her, so you ignore my efforts, my achievements, and everything I have!"
"Back when I was in school, you secretly complained that I wasn't as smart as He Jing; now that you're older, you still think I'm not as successful as He Jing! Yes, she's a scientist, and I'm an actress, how can I compare to her?"
As Cheng Yi spoke, her eyes reddened, filled with sorrow and hatred.
"Today, I'm telling you clearly, I've had enough, and I don't want to anymore! I'm going to stay in the entertainment industry. If you don't want me as your daughter when things go wrong, then I'll pretend you're not my father, and we'll sever all ties!"
After he finished speaking, the entire living room fell into a deathly silence.
Cheng Yue stared at Cheng Yi in shock, his face filled with astonishment and grief. He never expected that his usually obedient and sensible daughter would have so many complaints about him!
