Chapter 327: Chi Ya is in for Bad Luck
Rainy City Lan Club.
Chi Ya was beautifying herself at a high-end spa shop with a few fair-weather friends when Chi Jianguo, with a stony face, barged in and dragged her out.
“Dad?” Chi Ya’s face still had a facial mask on, and upon seeing Chi Jianguo, she was stunned and struggled, “Dad, how did you find this ce?”
“Come home with me.” Chi Jianguo’s face was dark, his tone even colder.
Chi Ya felt his attitude was making her lose face in front of her friends. Although she was afraid of him, she still twisted her wrist and frowned, “Dad, what are you doing? I’ll go back, just let me finish my facial mask.”
She still had the nerve to wear a facial mask! Did she know how much trouble she had caused him! Anger surged in Chi Jianguo’s heart, but because they were outside, he was still concerned about his image and didn’t want people to catch him losing his temper with Chi Ya in public, confirming the news. He suppressed his fury and, with a lowered voice, repeated, “Home!”
Grim!
Oppressive!
Chi Ya’s heart skipped a beat, and she quietly followed him.
The ride home was silent. Chi Ya wanted to ask several times what exactly had happened, but given Chi Jianguo’s extremely dark expression, she didn’t have the courage to ask.<div>
Finally, they arrived home.
The driver helped them open the car door, and Chi Ya, in her high heels and with an arrogant posture, entered the Vi.
No sooner had she gone in than her arm was seized. Turning around, she saw it was Chi Jianguo. As she wondered why, she saw his face turn ashen, bereft of his usual fatherly gentleness, he raised his hand and pped her across the face—
“p!” A crisp p echoed through the Vi!
The servants, witnessing the scene, all bowed their heads, busy with their chores, and hid in the kitchen.
Chi Ya was stunned by the sudden p, losing her bnce and copsing onto the living room sofa. Her left ear was ringing, she opened her eyes wide in disbelief, and looked toward Chi Jianguo, roaring in shock, “Dad?!”
“You still have the face to call me! Look at the trouble you’ve caused! I’ve told you a thousand times to get along with your sister, what did you do? Who allowed you to run off to Capital City? You’re simply foolish!”
Capital City?
Chi Ya was even more confused.
The incident where Chi Enen had set her up in Capital City was already in the past, wasn’t it? That day when she came back from Capital City, her mother had already spoken to her, telling her to apologize to Dad, and then they could turn over a new leaf. She had apologized upon her return, and Dad had forgiven her, merely warning her not to do it again and to be more careful in the future.
So why bring up the Capital City incident all of a sudden? And why the p?
Chi Ya, holding her face, felt wronged and stifled.
Themotion downstairs disturbed the people upstairs, and Gu Qiaomei hurried down from the second floor. She nced over the situation in the living room. Instead of rushing to protect Chi Ya, she supported Chi Jianguo, her small hand gently smoothing his back, softly persuading him, “Jianguo, what’s wrong? Why are you so furious as soon as you get back? Did Xiao Ya do something wrong again?”
Gu Qiaomei, frustrated as if hating iron for not being steel, red at Chi Ya, continuing to softly persuade, “She doesn’t have a bad heart, just sometimes she’s not quick-witted. Talk to her properly; she’s always looked up to you since she was small, she will listen to you. Don’t be angry anymore, you are the pir of our family. If you ruin your health over anger, what will Xiao Ya, Hao Hao, and I do?”
Normally, when she mentioned their younger son, Chi Jianguo would let bygones be bygones. But this time, as if he had swallowed an explosive, he waved away her hand. Pointing at Chi Ya’s nose, he scolded furiously, “Spare the rod, spoil the child! How many times have I told you to keep her in check, is this how you’ve managed it?”
