"Can't you go west?" Chen Xueyao was furious. She grabbed the boy's ear and started tearing at it.
The boy's hair was pulled and messed up, and a trickle of blood flowed down.
"Smack!"
Chen Xueyao slapped him again, and the boy's cheek swelled up, with a trace of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
"You lowly commoner, do you still dare to stare at me with such hatred?" Chen Xueyao cursed.
"Xueyao, stop it, don't hit him anymore." Just then, a man in his forties ran down from upstairs, stopped Chen Xueyao, and advised her.
"Dad, he hit me! You don't know? This little bastard even dared to look at me with hatred! I'm going to beat him to death!" Chen Xueyao said angrily.
"Why kill him? He hasn't broken the law. He just likes Ye Qian. Hitting him won't do any good," said Mr. Chen.
"Dad, how could you protect such a despicable person? This kind of person deserves to be torn to pieces!" Chen Xueyao said angrily.
"What nonsense are you talking about, you little brat?" Chen's father scolded.
"Dad, I'm telling the truth," Chen Xueyao retorted.
"Shut up! If you cause any more trouble, I'll send you back abroad immediately!" Chen's father threatened.
"Dad, you actually threatened me? You actually want to send me back abroad? Waaah... I don't want to live anymore!" Chen Xueyao cried.
"Oh dear, Xueyao, don't scare your father like that! If anything happens to you, I'm doomed too!" Mr. Chen said with a wry smile.
"Hmph, that lowly commoner, he actually likes that bitch Ye Qian, I'll beat him to death!" Chen Xueyao said viciously.
"If you really want to teach this bastard a lesson, come upstairs with me first." After saying that, Mr. Chen walked towards the second floor.
Chen Xueyao stomped her foot, glared fiercely at Ye Qian, and then turned and went upstairs.
Ye Qian covered her burning right cheek, gritting her teeth as she stared at Chen Xueyao's retreating figure.
Ye Qian is a female special agent who once thought her career was over. However, a few months ago, she accepted a mission and carried out an extremely dangerous task. She met a young man named Zhang Yang. Although the young man was not old, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with him. So, she agreed to accompany him for a few days.
However, Ye Qian had just finished her mission and hadn't even returned to the military headquarters when she heard about her superiors' punishment order, and she was sent back to China.
After the Chen father and daughter went upstairs, the father closed the door, walked to the window, and looked at Ye Qian in the yard.
His face turned grim because he had realized his daughter's feelings for Ye Qian.
"Xueyao, do you like that Ye Qian?" Mr. Chen asked.
"Of course I like her. Isn't she pretty?" Chen Xueyao asked.
"Beautiful," said Mr. Chen.
A hint of resentment flashed in Chen Xueyao's eyes, "But..."
"But, but what?" Chen's father asked.
"But he's a bastard, and my family will never allow a bastard to be my fiancé," Chen Xueyao said resentfully.
Father Chen shook his head. "Xueyao, you're still too naive. Society isn't like ancient times anymore. Do you think your Chen family is still in ancient times? Or some royal family whose word is law and cannot be changed? So, you need to learn to let go."
I think Ye Qian is a good girl. She's pure and beautiful, kind-hearted, and most importantly, she's rich and powerful, unlike you, who's poor and destitute.
"Dad, although our Chen family has declined, we haven't fallen to the point where we need to depend on a man to survive. I don't believe you don't even have this much power. If you help me with this matter, I will marry you. I will also ask my brother to help me and introduce you to more friends in high society. That way, our family business will definitely be stronger than before!" Chen Xueyao said.
Father Chen sighed, "Xueyao, don't you understand? Your brother earned his official position through hard work, and he has his pride. Do you think he would want a woman with no money or power to marry him? Your brother is very stubborn and inflexible. This time, if it weren't for me pulling strings behind the scenes, he would never have agreed to let you marry him."
"Dad, you're right," Chen Xueyao sighed. "In that case, what should we do now?"
Father Chen said, "Xueyao, now there are only two paths left. The first is for you to find an opportunity to poison Ye Qian's water cup, either to kill her or to poison her. The second is for you to continue pursuing that boy, make him fall in love with you, and then marry him. That way, even if he finds out the cause of Ye Qian's death, he won't bother you anymore, and your Chen family will be saved."
"Poisoning? Murder? I... I wouldn't dare," Chen Xueyao said in a panic.
"What are you afraid of? We didn't kill anyone, and this is just a show. I'll find you a scapegoat later," said Mr. Chen.
"Scapegoat?" Chen Xueyao asked, stunned.
Father Chen smiled slightly, "Xueyao, you're getting more and more naive. Do I really need to tell you something so simple? That kid's background is so complicated. Your brother's career, my political future, and the family business are all in his hands. If you don't get rid of him, we'll face endless pursuit. At that time, we'll all die by his sword."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xueyao's face turned even paler.
"Xueyao, I know this is a cruel thing. We are all going to die. It's all because of that kid. Do you understand?" Chen's father said.
"But I'm not reconciled," Chen Xueyao said.
