Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Zhen Zhu got out of the car, the butler was already waiting at the door to escort her.

However, she refused to be escorted. Even when the butler tried to persuade her, she did not listen.

“If she doesn’t want to, then just let her be,” Shen Hanyu said lightly.

Thus, Zhen Zhu walked into the living room with her face covered in heavy makeup.

Seeing her daughter like this, Zhen Yiping’s expression changed, and he suppressed his anger. The old lady also looked sad for her misfortune and was angry at herself for not being able to fight back.

Fortunately, Zhen Zhu had wrapped her coat around her, and her revealing miniskirt was not exposed. Otherwise, Zhen Yiping would have exploded in anger.

In the dead silence, Zhen Yiping suppressed his anger and said, “You’re back and you still don’t know how to behave. Don’t you know how to greet your grandmother?”

…..

“I’m used to being wild outside, so I don’t follow such rules anymore.”

Zhen Zhu said indifferently, “I’ve told you not to let me come back. I’ll only make things difficult for you if I come back. So why are you doing this?”

Zhen Zhu was still very emotional in the car and was still making a fuss when she got out of the car. However, as soon as she stepped into the Zhen family’s residence, she suddenly became a different person and was unusually calm.

At this moment, her tone was particularly distant, as if the people sitting opposite her were not her grandmother and biological father, but two strangers who had nothing to do with her.

Zhen Yiping could not help but flare up, but Old Lady Zhen stopped him and said kindly, “Zhuzhu, you’re not causing any trouble. Grandma really misses you. Now that you’re back, let’s not talk about the past anymore. Just stay at home and accompany Grandma, okay?”

Zhen Zhu remained unmoved and smiled. “Grandma, to be honest, I’m now a resident singer in a bar. Can you really accept that?”

Hearing the words “resident singer”, Zhen Yiping was furious. “Are you doing this on purpose? How dare you make the Zhen family lose face?”

“If you’re aware, then you’d better let me go now. Otherwise, the next time your people find me, it will be at a bar with guests.”

Zhen Zhu said coldly, “I told you not to meddle in my business. Otherwise, I’ll only make the Zhen family lose more face. “Since you’ve severed your father-daughter relationship with me, why do you still want to interfere in my affairs? Wouldn’t it be better to leave me alone?”

“If your cousin didn’t insist on looking for you, do you think I would let you come back?”

Zhen Yiping was burning with anger as he gritted his teeth and said, “Since you’re so stubborn, I don’t think I should give you any more chances!”

“A chance?”

Zhen Zhu sneered, “Do you think I want to go back to the Zhen family? I’m begging you, please don’t give me such an opportunity in the future, because I don’t want it at all!”

Zhen Yiping was so angry that the blood vessels in his temples were throbbing.

Other people said that daughters were like their father’s little cotton-padded jacket, but only this daughter of his was simply an enemy of his.

When she was young, she was still obedient and sensible. However, when she was thirteen or fourteen years old, she suddenly seemed to have changed into a different person and went against him in everything.

When she was studying abroad, she refused to apply for business and insisted on applying for architecture. She even threatened her life for this, and Zhen Yiping had to go along with her wishes.

However, two years ago, when she came back from studying abroad, she said that she didn’t want to be an architect anymore, and instead wanted to be a star. She even signed with an entertainment company.

Not only did she take some outrageous photos, but she also took on a large-scale movie.

Even though outsiders didn’t know her true identity, Zhen Yiping found it hard to accept that even after the old lady had come to persuade Zhen Zhu, she was still so determined and stubborn.

In a fit of anger, Zhen Yiping used some means to stop the film from being released, and the entertainment company also terminated their contract with Zhen Zhu.

When Zhen Zhu returned, she seemed to have gone crazy and had a big fight with Zhen Yiping.

No entertainment company was willing to sign with her anymore, so she decided to set up her own studio and operate it externally.

Zhen Yiping had cut off all of her sources of funding, so she couldn’t do anything without money. In addition, Old Lady Zhen had also persuaded her with all her heart. Under the carrot and the stick, she had no choice but to agree to Old Lady Zhen’s request and work in a company under the Zhen family.

However, because of her negligence, the project had a huge flaw and indirectly caused the company to lose hundreds of millions.

When Zhen Yiping criticized her, she actually threw out a resignation letter and said that she was quitting. Zhen Yiping was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.

Since then, Zhen Zhu had nothing to do and would cause trouble every few days.

One time, she had a party with a bunch of bad friends in the villa. One of them was suspected of taking drugs, which alerted the police.

Zhen Zhu and those people were taken to the police station. If it weren’t for the Zhen family’s intervention, Zhen Zhu would have been sentenced to a few years in prison.

Zhen Yiping was mentally and physically exhausted. He was completely disappointed in Zhen Zhu and no longer had any thoughts of letting her take over the Zhen family.

Old Lady Zhen had carefully chosen a family of equal social status for her granddaughter and had wanted to let Zhen Zhu marry into the family as soon as possible.

However, Zhen Zhu refused and threatened to commit suicide, forcing the old lady to give up on the idea of getting engaged to her.

Not long after that, Zhen Zhu caused trouble again at Zhen Yiping’s 50th birthday banquet.

She had a conflict with one of the women over a small matter, and she had grabbed a vase and hit the other party until her head was bleeding and her face was almost disfigured.

In front of all the guests, Zhen Yiping couldn’t take it anymore. In his anger, he wished that he didn’t have such a daughter.

Not only did Zhen Zhu refuse to give in, but she also went against him with a tough attitude. As a result, the father and daughter finally reached a point of no return.

Afterward, Zhen Zhu left the house and disappeared.

Zhen Yiping was worried about this daughter of his and had sent people to find her several times.

However, she was determined not to return to the Zhen family. She said that every time he brought her back, she would embarrass the Zhen family even more.

Zhen Yiping also gave up on this idea and never sent anyone to look for her again.

The old lady had secretly sent someone to visit her. At that time, she was addicted to traveling and had been going around all over the world.

After the old lady and Shen Hanyu reunited, there was a period of time when she did not pay attention to Zhen Zhu’s whereabouts. Unexpectedly, she had gone to a bar and became a resident singer. She had really challenged Zhen Yiping’s bottom line time and time again!

“Hanyu, you’ve seen it for yourself. She’s rotten mud that can’t hold up a wall. Alas, rotten wood cannot be carved.”

Zhen Yiping’s face turned livid as he looked at Shen Hanyu. “I advise you not to waste your time on her. I’ll pretend that I didn’t hear what you said before, and you don’t have to take it all seriously anymore!”

After saying this, he stood up with a straight face and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Old Lady Zhen could not help but frown. “Zhuzhu, why hasn’t your personality changed at all? No matter what, he’s still your father. How can you speak to him with such an attitude?”

“Didn’t he say that he doesn’t have a daughter like me?”

Zhen Zhu chuckled. “Old lady, I have nothing to do with the Zhen family anymore. He’s right, I’m a piece of rotten mud that can’t hold up a wall. You don’t have to care about me in the future.”

Old Lady Zhen didn’t know what to say. The little bit of longing she had turned into complete disappointment once again.

She was stubborn, rebellious, and ruthless. She used her own life to threaten her own family. If something really happened, who could bear the responsibility?

The old lady stood up with her walking stick and sighed. “You child…. Forget it, forget it! I won’t worry about your matters anymore in the future, so do as you wish!”
