353: You Have To Settle The Score For Me

You Have To Settle The Score For Me

Su Chenghui was again taken aback. He subconsciously resisted this thought. "Peizhen, I didn't…"0

"If that's not the case, then why do you refuse to settle the score for me?" Su Peizhen was now convinced that what Xiang Caiping had said was true. "Sure enough, that woman is the one you love, so now you would rather look on as I'm being bullied than step in, right?"

"Peizhen." What nonsense is this? Su Chenghui reached out to hold her hand. "You need to calm down. There are many things that are not how you see them. I asked you to let it go because I do not want you to come into conflict with her. After all, she…"

"After all, she is Su Qingsang's mother and the woman you love the most. Is that right?"

Su Peizhen swept Su Chenghui's hand away. The early years of her life had been smooth sailing; she had everything served to her on a silver platter.

However, recently, she ran into one obstacle after another. Even her father, whom she had always respected, was not cutting her any slack.

"Peizhen, things are not what you imagine them to be."

Su Chenghui was starting to have a headache as he faced Su Peizhen's accusatory attitude. The words he had buried deep down in his heart were on the verge of spilling out of his mouth.

"Father, stop finding reasons and excuses for yourself. You're not able to explain yourself precisely because what I said was right. Everything I said was right, isn't it?"

At this moment, Su Peizhen could not bear to listen anymore. All she felt was hurt. She was mortified.

"Father, you just look on as a stranger antagonizes me. Are you being fair to me? Are you being fair to my mother?"

Su Chenghui's eyes widened and he took a step forward to explain himself. "Peizhen, listen to me. Actually…"

Su Peizhen refused to pay attention and Su Chenghui was starting to panic. He could not care about anything else at this moment.

"Peizhen, you can choose not to believe what I'm going to tell you, but it's true. I…"

At this moment, Su Peizhen's cellphone rang. Su Peizhen already ran out of patience with her father, so she avoided him by moving away to answer the call.

"Peizhen, I heard that you're back. Where are you?"

It was Li Qianxue on the other end of the line. Su Peizhen had finally found someone to pour out her frustrations to. She could not contain herself anymore. 

"Mother…"

"Peizhen, what happened?"

Li Qianxue had never heard her daughter sob this way while speaking, not even when her engagement with Qiu Yanbo was broken off.

"I, I…"

"Peizhen." Su Chenghui stepped forward at this moment and looked at Su Peizhen, urging her with his eyes to watch what she was going to say.

"Someone humiliated me, Mother."

Su Peizhen was oblivious to Su Chenghui. Since Su Chenghui would not settle the score for her, she would look for the person who would.

"Are you with your father? Wait a little while. I'll be there immediately."

Upon hearing the way Su Peizhen's voice broke, Li Qianxue spoke without a second thought, "Are both of you at the company? Wait a few minutes for me. I'm close by."

Su Peizhen hanged up and came face to face with Su Chenghui who was hesitating to speak. Uncontrollable anguish enveloped her.

"Father, since you're not willing to settle the score for me, I'll have to let Mother do it."

"Peizhen, you…"

Su Chenghui knew that Li Qianxue was heading their way and what he had meant to reveal to Su Peizhen was caught in his throat. He had no intention of saying it anymore.

He rubbed his brows with exhaustion. The situation was getting more and more out of hand.

Fifteen minutes later, Li Qianxue appeared at Su Chenghui's office. When she saw the slap mark on Su Peizhen's face, her demeanor turned extremely grim.

"Who hit you?"
