It was already six in the evening when Jiang Shuxia took a taxi home.
After tormenting herself for an entire day, she was already a little tired. Her confrontation with the Director Liu had kept her in an extremely tense situation, and was not that easy to deal with.
She wasn't a robot, so she was already tired when facing these people.
The moment she stepped into the restaurant, the sounds of laughter became extremely ear-piercing. She didn't know what Jiang Linfan and Jiang Yu were talking about, but Jiang Yu's laughter made her feel that she was being a little unnecessary.
He was clearly his biological daughter, but now it seemed that he was like an outsider, destroying the good atmosphere between them.
Lin Chu saw Jiang Shuxia approaching and immediately stood up with a smile. "Shu Xia, you're back? Have you eaten dinner? "
Then, without waiting for Jiang Shuxia's reply, she turned to look at the servant at her side: "Help me get Miss a pair of chopsticks and a bowl of food."
This kind of "kindness" had always puzzled Jiang Shuxia, making her feel that Lin Chu was a gentle stepmother. However, after seeing her true face, if Jiang Shuxia still believed her, there was something wrong with his head.
"Not eating."
She coldly spat out those words.
Hearing her attitude, Jiang Linfan tactfully did not interrupt, and silently lowered her head to eat.
But Jiang Yu was furious, his chopsticks smashed onto the table, the light in his eyes became sharp: "What are you doing? Is that how you talk to your mother? What did I teach you? What do you think this home is? Come and go as you please? "
These words caused Jiang Shuxia, who was originally prepared to quietly return to her room, to pause in her steps. Every single word was like a sharp blade stabbing into her heart, dripping with blood that ached.
It was hard for her to imagine that this was her own father! As the only family member in the world, he was completely blinded by the mother and daughter pair, and had used vicious words to hurt himself.
Jiang Shuxia clenched her teeth, as though she was using all her strength to suppress the displeasure in her heart, and spoke with an extremely cold tone: "Mother? Is my mother here? Isn't she already in the netherworld? "
After hearing all these, Lin Chu's face suddenly changed.
Jiang Shuxia laughed coldly, her clear eyes also had a sharp glint, "As for the tutelage you mentioned, my mother passed away early, and no one taught me! "But don't worry. Even if I'm not at home, I won't embarrass your Jiang family. After all, face is much more important than my life!"
These eyes caused Jiang Yu's heart to palpitate; he was simply unable to look straight at them. For a moment, Jiang Yu even felt that Jiang Shuxia's mother had once again stood in front of him.
After Jiang Shuxia finished speaking, she turned around and quickly left.
The feeling of hatred almost swallowed her heart whole, and she started to doubt whether or not she was Jiang Yu's daughter. If one carefully thought back to the past few years, although Jiang Yu had appeared to be extremely fond of her, the care and love he had for her was not even comparable to that of a stepdaughter.
The atmosphere in the dining hall became more tensed, and although Jiang Shuxia was not there, her face continued to darken.
"Go to those chopsticks." After Lin Chu finished instructing the servant, she turned her head and looked at Jiang Yu. Her delicate hand gently held onto his arm, and gently consoled him: "Don't be angry, Ah Yu, it's not good for your health."
"Right, Dad, being angry is just making things difficult for yourself. Perhaps it was because there were too many things happening recently that caused her sister to be in a bad mood. Don't be mad at yourself. " Jiang Linfan feigned an innocent look, looked at Jiang Yu who had a gloomy and cold face and said gently.
Jiang Yu grumbled, "Luckily we have all of you. I don't know when this Shu Xia will grow up! Compared to Fan Fan, it's far worse! "
"Don't worry, she's just in a bad mood at the moment. She won't hold a grudge." Fan Fan, when you go up later, bring your sister something to eat. She probably hasn't eaten yet. I'm going to tell the kitchen to start cooking her favorite food now. " Lin Chu showed a gentle look, as if she understood the gist of the situation.
"Mm, that's fine too. Get her something she likes to eat." Jiang Yu heaved a sigh of relief, and said with some helplessness.
