''Who is it? Zhang Renshu or Song Jujing?'' Zhang Liling thought to herself as she rinsed off the cereal bowl and spoon under the running kitchen tap.


    Here she was wondering whose call wasing in after the rumors spreading like wildfire on the inte.


    Ignoring her ringing phone, she continued with her work until she was done to thest.


    Wiping her hands with the hand towel, she put the bowl and the spoon away in the kitchen cab before going back to pick up the towel.


    After hanging the towel on the rack, she slid her phone out from her jeans trouser pocket and turned the screen to her face.


    "This person is sure relentless." Shemented.


    And that''s because her phone had been ringing endlessly, and even as she was taking her time with the dishes, no break was given between when the call disconnected and when it started to ring again.


    Atst, when she saw the caller ID, a smirk turned up at the corners of her lips as she stepped out of the kitchen and made her toward her bedroom.


    She knew she was going to get an earful first and as she had guessed, Zhang Renshu did not spare her and immediately started to curse her out as soon as she answer the call.


    "You rat! Are you avoiding me now? Why didn''t you answer when I called the first time?!"


    Rage was evident in his tone and Zhang Liling couldn''t have pretended not to notice it as she thought, ''Is that really important to you now?''


    She felt that he would have started with a better opening than this.


    With Zhang Renshu already on her neck, she didn''t bother to reply to his question as he also did not give her the chance even if she had wanted to respond.


    Without giving her breathing space, the angry man began to question her destiny.


    "Zhang Liling, did youe to this world to be someone''s mistress?? After graduating, have you nothing better to do with your life?!"


    Rolling her eyes, Zhang Liling sat on the edge of her bed and crossed her leg over the other as she continued to listen to his never-ending rant.


    ''Dad, you never cease to amaze me. Honestly, did you think I am so insignificant as to settle as someone''s mistress? You need to get your facts about me checked.''


    Zhang Renshu was at the other end of the phone scolding the hell out of his daughter while she was here having thoughts she wasn''t supposed to have.


    To the man, she should be in a somber mood.


    Inhaling sharply, he spat out and directly ended the call without giving her the chance to defend or exin herself.


    "Come back home this instant!"


    Zhang Liling scoffed as she threw her phone on the bed. If there was bubble gum in her mouth, she would have been bowing it and making noises with it.


    She really wanted tough at her father. The man felt like he could do as he pleased, scolding her and then going on tomand her.


    He really was thinking too much of himself.


    An hourter, Zhang Liling wasughing hard while ying around with her phone.


    This was the youngdy her father had asked toe home, but here she was, having no ns of listening to him.


    Zhang Renshu was sitting in his study waiting for her arrival after instructing the servants to bring her in as soon as she arrived, not knowing that the stubborn human he was waiting for, was currently chatting with her friends.


    Thirty minutester when the man was yet to see any shadow of Zhang Liling, he hurriedly gave her a call, but she refused to answer.


    Even when her phone rang consecutively for ten good times, Zhang Liling ignored his calls and went on to silence her phone at the end.


    ck lines immediately made their way to the man''s forehead after he discovered that his instructions were taken lightly.


    mming his hand on his desk while seething in rage, he cursed under his breath.


    "Like mother and daughter!"


    Zhang Renshu refused to give up. After calming down for a bit, he immediately made a few calls to find Fang Bingwen''s number.


    Since that stubborn girl wasn''t going to do as he said, he figured that he would call Mr. Fang and scold the hell out of him.


    *******


    Fang Bingwen was working in his study when a call from an unknown number came on his phone.


    ncing at his phone screen and being unable to recognize the number, his brows furrowed.


    Reaching out for his phone, he pressed the side button, instantly silencing the sound before shifting his gaze back to the stack of papers in his hands.


    This was only a day after the rumor about Zhang Liling being his mistress started to spread on the inte.


    On the second ring, Mr. Fang was forced to answer the call, and immediately he said ''hello,'' he heard the angry voice of the male caller at the other end.


    "Fang Bingwen, this is Zhang Liling''s father," Zhang Renshu introduced himself before going on with the reason he reached out to him.


    His tone was not friendly in any way as he continued, "Did you tell my daughter not to answer my calls? Did you give her the idea not to listen to me? If you don''t want me to ruin your reputation in the next hour, ask Zhang Liling toe back home this minute!"


    Saying until this point, he directly ended the call.


    Right from the beginning of the call to the end, Mr. Fang''s entire face was contoured in a frown.


    Bringing his phone down to nce at the screen, he mumbled to himself in disbelief.


    "Did Zhang Renshu just scold me?"


    He was still unable toprehend what just happened a few moments ago.


    Fang Bingwen couldn''t believe that someone would scold him over the phone so randomly like that, and that too, it had to be his girlfriend''s father.
