Chapter 216 - Sisters bond

Gu Zhang took a deep breath to calm his nerves before saying, " Since you're going to join the college soon, buy some wearable clothes for yourself and don't wear those low-class dresses of yours anymore. In college, you will encounter many students who belong to the elite families, don't act like a brat, and make some friends with them who will come resourceful in the future."

" Also, leave your cheap entertainment company soon. As the daughter of the Gu family, it doesn't suit you to work as the artist manager in a cheap company. Don't shame the name of the Gu family because of your stubbornness."

It's embarrassing to tell anyone that his daughter works in an entertainment company. She got the scholarship in the topmost college in the country, so she should do the work suitable for that status. 

The entertainment industry is not only dirty but full of scandals and lies. How can she be able to marry into a reputed family, if she continued to work in that cheap entertainment company? 

" I will send you my card so get yourself some pretty dresses. Since your dressing sense is poor, I will ask Xingren to help you. You two sisters should spend some time together and form a bond." He said like a responsible father, wanting his daughters to mingle together and became friends with each other. 

Xu Nuan was already annoyed by his words. He doesn't know anything about her work yet he shamelessly calls the entertainment industry cheap and dirty. Does he want her to recall the dirty side of the business circle?

Both are equally messed up but the difference is, the entertainment industry comes in the spotlight more while the business scandals get covered under the corruption and underhanded deals. 

In a true sense, the bigger business companies are hiding more rubbish than any entertainment company. 

Not only that, he wants her to go shopping with Xingren?  She couldn't help but scoff at his choice of words. Sisters bond? With Xingren?

" Shopping with Xingren? Hah, do you want me to get into an accident again?" she asked stoney heartedly, reminding him what Xingren did to her when they went shopping together in the past. 

He can forget all the things Xingren did to her but how can she? 

That was the accident that changed her life. If Xu Nuan wouldn't have gotten into an accident, she might have just died as Jiang Yue or would have taken over someone else's body, if possible. 

Gu Zhang's expressions turned solemn upon hearing Xu Nuan's straightforward words. He glanced at Xingren's whose expressions turned gloomy as well upon hearing Xu Nuan bringing up the past. 

He got fl.u.s.tered seeing the nervousness on Xingren's face and looked around to see if anyone else was there, " Xu Nuan!! Why are you talking about that incident again? Didn't we settle that already? Also, it was just a mistake. Do you have to bring that topic every time we talk? I called you because I wanted to mend our broken relationship."

" You can forget us, but I am your father. How can a father be heartless enough to ignore his child?" His voice turned louder and annoyed. He was angry at her attitude but was also trying to suppress the anger for the sake of their relationship, however, she keeps crossing her lines. 

Xu Nuan couldn't help but stare at the phone in wonder, is he drunk or what? How can he be shameless enough to call her and claim himself as a father after treating her like shit all these years? 

No doubt Xingren turned out like this. Other than blood relationsh.i.p.s, there is a thing called parenting. And what kind of parenting Xingren has received, it's clear from her character. Like father, like daughter. 

Her lips curled into a cold smirk as she scoffed before saying, " Seems like you forgot your words, but when you were giving me the condominium that you bought for Xingren, you said that you will never accept an insect like me as your daughter. Now just because I surpassed your baby princess in the exam, I became your daughter? Hah, Mr. Gu, thanks for calling but don't call me next time if there is nothing important."

" I am living well alone, without any family. And I prefer to stay like this in the future as well. I have no intentions to share my achievements with you guys when you haven't contributed a cent to my growth. If you had shown some affection in the past, I wouldn't have acted like this, however, I remember how cold and harsh you were when I woke up after the operation."

" I love to hold grudges, Mr. Gu. I will never forget the way you treated me and sided with Xingren after knowing her criminal deeds and even at the Banquet as well, you let that old hag harass me to not ruin the business relations with him for the sake of Xingren. And after all of this, don't you feel shame calling yourself my father? Because I do." Gu Zhang was stunned upon hearing her harsh words. 

'What...what happened to this girl? Despite him trying to be nice, she was pushing him away?'

" Thank you for going against your will to congratulate me. It was surprising indeed. However, I don't need your good wishes because I know that rather than being happy about me, you're feeling proud about the honor coming with the scholarship." she said, revealing Gu Zhang's true feelings on his face.

Gu Zhang stared at the phone in shock upon hearing her words. He never had imagined in his wild dreams that one day he will get to hear such sharp words from Xu Nuan. Although these days she is speaking quite too much, this was still out of his imagination. How can she be so distant and indifferent to her father?

Mr. Gu? Not even father or dad? 

Does she even think of him as her father?
