Chapter 306: 306: The Truth Is Crueler Than Imagined

“Chi Enen, who would have thought? Dad knew all along. The very next day after I had Gu Qianci drug you, dad knew exactly what I had done. That’s why, when you said you wanted to go abroad, he so readily gave you the money for the flight tickets,” Chi Ya said, staring intently at Chi Enen’s pale face, unable to hide her vindictive pleasure, “What were you expecting? That after telling dad, he would severely punish me? Or get angry on your behalf and kick me out of the house?”

“…” Even though her heart had long since become numb, at this moment, Chi Enen still felt as if an old wound had been ripped open, bleeding profusely. She clenched her fists tightly, her face expressionless.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Chi Ya enjoyed seeing her pitiable and fragile appearance, reminding her with deliberate emphasis, “Don’t delude yourself! Chi Enen, let me tell you, you’re nothing but a little shameless thing born from a mistress! Do you think dad really liked you? That he treated you like his daughter? Let me be honest with you, dad personally told my mom that the only reason he took you into our home was not because you are his daughter, but because he was afraid that the gossip outside would affect the company’s image. If it weren’t for the fact that your mother’s affair was known all over town, and had she not died, dad would have dumped you in the orphanage long ago!”

“You’re a shadow to him too, a piece of dirt that can’t be washed clean!”

“When dad found out what I had done to you, he scolded me a bit, but as soon as mom defended me, he had nothing more to say. He just told me not to tell you. To be honest, Chi Enen, I’m not afraid of you finding out. If it weren’t for mom and dad saying that you might seek revenge if you knew, I would have told you long ago. How naive of you to think you’ve found something and come running to me. If you wanted to know, you could’ve just asked me back then, and I would’ve told you straight away.”

Chi Jianguo knew all along what Chi Ya had done!

He knew five years ago! Not only did Chi Jianguo know, but Gu Qiaomei also did! Yet they chose to tell Chi Ya not to speak of it, lest she found out and sought revenge!

Chi Enen’s fingernails dug deep into her flesh!

She knew her birth was scandalous, and she also knew that her existence was a hurt to Gu Qiaomei. Although one cannot choose their birth, it was because her mother had meddled in Gu Qiaomei’s marriage, that all these years she had given way to Chi Ya. Even after knowing Chi Ya had framed her, nearly causing her to be violated by Mayor Wang’s son, she did not seek revenge on Chi Ya. She only slapped her as a warning before choosing to leave Rainy City on her own.

But now, as one truth after another was unveiled before her, Chi Enen found herself consumed with hatred!

Not just for Chi Ya, but also for Chi Jianguo!

Humans cannot choose their birth, but humans can indeed choose whom to give birth to! Just like she said, her mother was wrong to intrude into someone else’s marriage, but was Chi Jianguo right?

All these years, he was never truly a father!

Chi Enen felt as if her heart was being squeezed to the point of suffocation, the pain reaching its apex, and she finally let go of her constraints. She looked at Chi Ya coldly, advancing step by step.

Perhaps it was her current expression that was too forceful.

Chi Ya panicked, shouting, “Chi Enen, what are you trying to do? I warn you, don’t do anything rash. If you dare, dad won’t let you off the hook!”

“Dad?” Chi Enen sneered, as if she had heard something laughable. Suddenly, her smile vanished, her face devoid of any emotion, she coldly retorted, “Whose dad? Your dad? I don’t have a father.”
