Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was impossible to leave his daughter alone and not care about her. After hitting her, Ye Zhifan reprimanded her so that she would remember his lesson and not do any dumb things again.
Ye Ying, who felt relieved, didn’t dare to tell her father that she was about to faint from the pain on her face. She stood on the spot with her eyes on the ground. She didn’t dare to resist. She just nodded and accepted the scolding.
Sun Dongqing, who was taking out her keys to open the door, heard the sound. Her expression changed entirely. She ran over with her body of fats.
The Ye family was living in a small apartment building that had six floors. They were staying on the first floor so they had a small courtyard in front and behind their house. Sun Dongqing rushed out of the courtyard and saw her precious daughter’s face under the street light. There was a red hand mark on it. It was swollen too.
“You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Why aren’t you looking for those people that harmed our daughter? Why are you hitting our daughter instead? I’m going to fight you!” Ye Ying was her beloved daughter. Nothing could happen to her. Hence, Sun Dongqing couldn’t let her husband hit Ye Ying. She rushed over like a b.i.t.c.h and wanted to hit Ye Zhifan.
“Ye Ying, if you disappoint me again, I won’t help you again even if you are forced to quit school by Ye Jian. Remember what you said just now. If I have to clean your split milk again, you can return to Shuikou Village with your mother and stay there so you won’t embarra.s.s me anymore.”
Ye Zhifan didn’t even look at his wife who rushed out. He opened the car door and sat inside. Then, he pressed the honk to remind the driver to come back.
“Where are you going? Where are you planning to go after hitting our daughter? Get off the car! Get off!” Sun Dongqing pulled the car door handle furiously. When she couldn’t open it, she started pounding the door and shouting indignantly. She didn’t notice that her husband wasn’t even willing to look at her.
But Ye Ying observed this. The words that w.a.n.g Dandan once said flashed past her mind. In that instant, she felt her heart drop.
Ever since she entered Provincial No.1 Middle School, her father, whose presence was like a mountain to her… even when he came to the province, he rarely stayed at home. He would either say that there was a dinner appointment or he was busy with meetings.
Sun Dongqing didn’t seem to mind. She shouted a few angry words before turning to hold Ye Ying. “Your father is treating himself as an official at home too. What happened just now? I just went to look for my keys to open the door and you got hit!”
“Mom, has Dad been constantly contacting you?” Ye Ying matured at a young age. The moment she realized that something was amiss, she asked her mother after they entered the house, “Why do I feel that there’s something wrong with Dad?”
Sun Dongqing was bending down to take the slippers out. She appeared nonchalant. “You don’t have to worry about us. Your Dad and I have always been like this. Come, change your shoes and tell me what happened in the military unit. I feel that your Dad’s expression is strange.”
Ye Ying didn’t want to think about this matter again. The moment she remembered how high and mighty Ye Jian looked like, her heart would scrunch up in pain.
“I made some mistakes. Dad will help me to transfer school the day after tomorrow. How about the Provincial No. 2 Middle School? Ye Jian is very famous in school now. I don’t want to be compared with her. Transferring schools will be beneficial to me.”
If she didn’t transfer school, she would be too embarra.s.sed to go for lessons.
The students in Cla.s.s One didn’t know that Ye Ying had left the military unit. The ladies knew that she didn’t go back to the dormitory to sleep when they were turning off the lights but when they remembered the things she did during target practice, everyone pretended that they knew nothing.
To them, Ye Ying was an awkward presence. They didn’t know how to face her in the future.
