Chapter 44 (2/2)

Li Haoran flew into a rage and glowered at Li Xueqing. He rebuked, “Is this how you treat your sister!?!”

Feeling a sudden loss over what to do, Li Xueqing frantically explained, “Father, it’s not like what you saw. I didn’t hit her… ”

“I saw everything and yet, you’re still trying to defend yourself!” Li Haoran pulled Li Beinian up and asked, “Are you alright?”

Li Beinian pushed him away and coldly said, “All I did was spend some of your money. Must you get your daughter to come and hit me?”

She sounded extremely disappointed and there were also tears in her eyes.

“Since you detest me so much, why did you even bring me home!?!”

She sounded humiliated, aggrieved and angered!

It was as if she had vented all of her pent up anger and frustration.

Li Haoran’s heart pounded rapidly and he panicked when he heard her words.

He suddenly felt guilty and ashamed.

He was greatly indebted to his daughter.

However, he did not expect Li Xueqing to slap her directly!

In a moment of anger, Li Haoran turned around and swung his hand across her face forcefully.

Pak!

It was a loud slap

Li Haoran barked with anger written all over his face, “Look what you’ve done!”

Dumbfounded, Li Xueqing looked up at Li Haoran in disbelief.

No, that was not what happened!

Li Haoran had never hit her before and he often doted on her like she was his princess.

Yet, he actually hit her because of Li Beinian.

Li Xueqing could not believe it at all. She cupped her hand on her face as tears rolled down her cheeks.

Li Xueqing burst into tears.

Her crying gave Fang Zhili a great shock. She hurriedly rushed out to see that her daughter was grief-stricken and weeping uncontrollably.

She hurriedly ran towards her and asked, “What’s the matter? What happened?”

Li Haoran hollered with a sullen expression, “What a great daughter you’ve raised! You shall stay at home to reflect on your own mistakes today. You’re not allowed to go anywhere else!”
