Chapter 96 - Turn of Events

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Until one day, when Yun Tian returned from her evening self-study session, she threw her school bag in the hall and went to the kitchen to find something to eat.

At this moment, Yun Tian’s phone rang. Su Yan originally didn’t want to pick it up and only wanted to pass the phone to Yun Tian. However, when she saw the name ‘Dad’ on the caller ID, Su Yan didn’t want Yun Tian to pick it up. Su Yan hid in the guest room on the first floor and answered the call.

It was a middle-aged man on the other end of the phone. When he saw that the call was connected, the middle-aged man immediately supported his waist and angrily said, “You wretched girl, you finally picked up the call? I thought you were dead outside. When are you coming back? Let me tell you, if you don’t come back soon, I won’t acknowledge you as my daughter anymore. Hurry up and come back, do you hear me?”

Su Yan endured the discomfort and continued to listen, but she only heard this person repeatedly using an arrogant and bossy tone to say nasty words.

Su Yan coldly laughed and asked, “Is she really your daughter? Are you so evil to your daughter?”

The man obviously didn’t expect that the person on the other end of the phone wasn’t Yun Tian. He immediately shouted angrily, “Who are you? Why are you answering my daughter’s call? I’m telling you, hurry up and send Yun Tian back. Otherwise, I’ll sue you for kidnapping.”

“Sure, go ahead and sue. I’m going to sue you for instigating someone to kidnap a minor.”

Su Yan sneered and asked, “You should know that your daughter is underage, right? Since you know, you should also know very well what the charge of arranged marriages for minors is.”

There was a pause on the other end of the line. Then, he forced himself to say, “What arranged marriage? I only asked her to agree to his courtship. We’ll talk about marriage when she’s of age.”

“Sometimes, I really wonder if you are Yun Tian’s biological father. That man is an old man older than you. Are you going to push your daughter into the fire pit just like that?”

Initially, after listening to Yun Tian’s words, Su Yan didn’t have any true feelings. However, after hearing Yun Tian’s father’s selfish words, her hatred for Yun Tian’s father kept rising. She even felt a nameless anger burning in her heart, along with the anger from Lu Ye and his son’s scheme that day.

How stupid do they think girls are to be so easily manipulated by them?

The other party was obviously in the wrong, but he was still unwilling to admit it. “Who are you? Why do we need you to interfere in our family matters? Let me tell you, Yun Tian was raised by me. How I treat her is none of your business. So now, give the phone to Yun Tian immediately.”

Su Yan sneered and felt a little sad. The sad thing was that many innocent children would be implicated if such a fool became a father.

“Let me tell you. Yun Tian has been an independent individual ever since she was born. Whatever she wants to do, it’s up to her to decide. It’s your duty to provide for her. You’re the one who gave birth to her and has to be responsible for her. You only have the right to provide for her. You don’t have the right to decide her future for her. Her life should be in her own hands.”

Su Yan didn’t want to talk to this man anymore and directly hung up the phone. After calming down a little, Su Yan heard a faint sobbing sound coming from behind her. Su Yan paused for a moment and turned around, only to see Yun Tian leaning against the wall like a pitiful child, constantly wiping her eyes.

Su Yan had never been able to do anything about a girl’s tears. She endured and endured. In the end, she could only hold Yun Tian’s hand and said gently, “Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. I will protect you. Your father can’t hurt you anymore.”

Hearing Su Yan’s words, Yun Tian could not stop her tears. She seemed to open her mouth to say something.

“What did you say?”

However, Yun Tian shook her head. When she raised her head again, she saw Yun Tian reveal a bright smile. “I said, I’ll remember. I won’t let anyone harm me in the future.”

It could be said that Su Yan’s words made Yun Tian suddenly realize something.

Yeah, why did she have to let someone else hurt her?

Why did those two people decide her future just because they were her parents?

It didn’t matter whether she wanted to or not. Why?

Just because they gave birth to her and raised her?

Yun Tian suddenly thought of the unfair treatment she had suffered at home. She knew that her parents liked her younger brother, but because her family was quite well-to-do, she did not feel that she was owed much in terms of materialism. However, it was different on a spiritual level.

Every time, no matter how busy their parents were or how tired they were, they would hug her younger brothers when they returned home and play with them for a while.

But when it came to her, they didn’t do it. She still remembered when she was young, she heard her parents say that they could go on a trip as long as they scored well in their final exams.

At that time, she was extremely excited and tried her best to study. In the end, she almost fainted while walking. In the end, only her results reached the standard.

When she thought that they could go on a vacation together, her parents packed their luggage and brought her two younger brothers out to play. They only left her at home and even said that they had given her the responsibility of looking after the house because she was their elder sister.

It was laughable that she had foolishly thought that she was valued and trusted..
