Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

After knowing the truth, Zhao Shuncheng had blown up not because he cared for Youlin. It was simply because he hated the fact that he had been deceived.

It was the kind of anger that burst out especially from a conceited man who thought he had the authority but later found out he had actually been used by his partner and that she was not as good as he had thought. In fact, she had committed a lot of nasty things behind his back. He even realized he had never really known her well all the while.

“Mother…!” When Zhao Youxi saw Li Hongyu fall down, she hurriedly helped herself up from the floor and stumbled her way to her mother.

Li Hongyu fell on the floor. She grunted in pain. In fact, panic got the better of her. She never thought Zhao Shuncheng would not believe her, and she felt a sense of crisis like never before.

“Mother, are you alright?” Zhao Youxi also wondered why a sudden change had happened to her family. Her father, who had been doting on them, struck them both today.

Zhao Youxi was weeping miserably. She held onto her final straw, Li Hongyu while hoping to get an anchor to her slipping sanity.

“I’m fine.” Li Hongyu struggled to get herself up from the floor. When she was about to say something to salvage the situation, Zhao Shuncheng had already extended his wicked hand at Zhao Youxi.

“Mother!” Zhao Youxi was shocked when she was grabbed by Zhao Shuncheng all of a sudden. She shrieked, seeking help from Li Hongyu.

As soon as Li Hongyu heard Zhao Youxi’s shout, she immediately looked up and was greeted by the sight of Zhao Shuncheng grabbing Zhao Youxi’s wrist and dragging her up, like what he had done to her before. Zhao Shuncheng raised his hand and was about to strike Zhao Youxi.

Li Hongyu’s face turned ghastly pale. She desperately rushed over to Zhao Shuncheng, grabbed his hand and shouted hoarsely, “Don’t! Shuncheng, don’t do this! Youxi is still a child. If you want, strike me instead! Don’t make things difficult for her!”

Zhao Shuncheng abruptly turned to Li Hongyu when he felt his hand being grabbed by her. He stared at her and sneered, “A child?! I once thought she was just a child too. But, this child nearly killed my daughter, as well as almost ruined my life!”

“What?!” Li Hongyu widened her teary eyes to the extreme. She turned around and looked at Zhao Youxi in shock.

Zhao Youxi looked away out of guilt. She avoided meeting her gaze. Everything had become more apparent than before.

At that instant, Li Hongyu felt the world was spinning around her. Her daughter… had almost killed someone!

Li Hongyu let go of Zhao Shuncheng’s hand. She staggered her way and lunged at Zhao Youxi. She pulled her hand and asked anxiously, “Youxi, what the hell is going on here? How could you plan to kill someone? Tell me. How can you… why…”

“Mother, I didn’t kill anyone… I didn’t…”

“If you didn’t, why…”

Before Li Hongyu finished speaking, Zhao Shuncheng snorted. He tossed Zhao Youxi to Li Hongyu’s side.

Zhao Youxi was already weak in her knees due to terror. As soon as Zhao Shuncheng let go of her, she nearly fell and sat on the floor.

“She didn’t kill anyone. If she did, how could she still be sitting here and talking to us?!” Zhao Shuncheng shouted angrily, “She set up everything and almost caused Youlin to fall down from the elevator, or die inside the lift. After that, she was so stupid that she dug her own grave by admitting that she had intended to murder Youlin. Not only that, but Youlin had also recorded their dialogue and kept it as crime evidence. If the thing were to be handed over to the police, regardless of whether Youxi killed anyone, she would have to go to jail!”

The more Zhao Shuncheng talked about it, the angrier he became. He picked up a lamp by his side and smashed it on the ground. While smashing the lamp, he cussed, “How can I have a daughter like you?! If I had known you would be such a burden to me when you grew up, I should not have contributed to your birth in the first place!”

Right after Zhao Shuncheng spoke, Li Hongyu’s expression changed. All these years, apart from her own effort, she had also relied on her children to win Zhao Shuncheng’s affection. Now, Zhao Shuncheng said that he had rather not contributed to Youxi’s birth, and this hurt Li Hongyu deeply.

While Li Hongyu was panicking and at a loss, Zhao Youxi made things even worse. She looked up and said angrily, “Father, even if it’s against your wish to contribute to my birth, it’s already too late. You can’t regret it anymore. I don’t understand why suddenly everyone sided with that wench. Not only you, but Mu Tingfeng does the same too. Before this… all of you had clearly disliked her! Why? Why did it turn out like this?!”

Zhao Youxi widened her eyes so wide as if she wanted to devour him alive. Her face looked as hideous as a beast. “Indeed, I did something to the elevator. What right does the wench have to override me? I’m never inferior to that wench be it my looks, background, or qualification. Apart from losing to her in terms of the use of a dirty trick to give birth to a child, she’s nothing like me! Why… Why does Mu Tingfeng treat her so differently?! She must have employed some kind of tricks! Why didn’t a disgraceful woman like her go to hell?!”

“Enough!” Zhao Shuncheng could not bear it anymore. He raised his hand and slapped Zhao Youxi once again. “Disgraceful?! I think you’re the disgraceful one instead! President Mu is Youlin’s husband. He’s your brother-in-law. Yet, you had suggestive thoughts about him and even harmed Youlin because of this… You really are…”

“Youxi…” Li Hongyu hurriedly went over and helped to carry Zhao Youxi up. She wanted to dissuade her from speaking more. However, Youxi pushed her to the side.

“You hit me?! How dare you strike me again?! You struck me because of that wench!” Zhao Youxi covered her cheek and shouted loudly, “Why not?! She has divorced Mu Tingfeng. They are divorced! They no longer have any relationship with each other! So, why not me?!”

“You!”

Zhao Youxi ignored Zhao Shuncheng’s anger. She mumbled to herself as if she had been possessed by a demon, “I’d planned everything well. The moment she enters the lift, and when the lift ascended to the top, the rope will break. Then, the lift will fall down from above and she will die, once and for all. But why? Why didn’t the gods help me? Why did Mu Tingfeng enter the lift with her?! It cannot be like this! It shouldn’t be like this! One day, I’ll certainly kill her! It’s only between me and her!”

“You…”

“Youxi, cut the crap!” Li Hongyu was very angry with her brainless daughter. The silly child knew that Zhao Shuncheng was boiling in rage, yet she still wanted to ask for death. Moreover, she had nearly dragged her down as well!

After shouting at Zhao Youxi, Li Hongyu turned back and rushed over to Zhao Shuncheng. She clung to his thigh and cried in tears, “Shuncheng, don’t be mad. Youxi is young and innocent. She did it out of recklessness and emotions. Please help her. Help her… She’s your daughter… She’s still young, and she can’t go to jail!”
