Chapter 178: Daughter’s True Colors
Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Huo You remained silent. After her father rambled on about how to get along with her fiancé or husband, she suddenly said, “Dad, I’ve been seriously considering my relationship with He Yu recently. I don’t want to continue the relationship with him, nor do I want to get engaged to him. I don’t want to place my entire life in his hands either.”
These words were like a shocking thunderclap, making Mr. and Mrs. Huo unable to react in time.
Mrs. Huo couldn’t help but raise her voice. “What did you say? How dare you make such a decision by yourself?”
Huo You no longer felt uneasy because of her parents’ anger. At most, she would just get slapped a few more times. She was used to it anyway and didn’t care about the pain and humiliation anymore.
She had the disposition of someone who had nothing better to lose. “He Yu and I don’t have any feelings for each other. I can’t stand his desire to control things and his emotional fluctuations. I hope you can understand my thoughts.”
Mr. Huo said coldly, “Relationship? Huo You, back then when you tried your best to return to the Huo Family, I thought you were mentally prepared and knew that you wouldn’t be able to have a sincere relationship in your lifetime. Now, you’re telling me that you’re planning to break up with He Yu because you have no feelings for him? I only have one answer—Impossible!”
Huo You wasn’t surprised by her father’s answer at all. Her lips curled into a mocking smile. She was mocking herself for reaping what she sowed. She knew what kind of scums her parents were, but she still wanted their support…
She also said coldly, “Dad, if you know how useless and what a failure He Yu is, you will know how right my choice was…”
She told him everything about her and He Yu’s plan. In the end, she said, “We’ve already made the first 99 steps and almost all the members of the Si Family have come to our side, but he didn’t manage to hurt Si Huan at all. Instead, he sent himself to the hospital somehow. I really don’t want to continue maintaining an intimate relationship with such an incompetent man.”
Mr. and Mrs. Huo were silent for a long while, not knowing how to react.
After a long while, Mr. Huo bellowed in a deep voice, “You two juniors are really daring. You actually planned that kidnapping case…”
Mrs. Huo was a woman and was more emotional in comparison. She looked at Huo You in disbelief and felt a chill run down her spine. “Even if you have left the Ding Family, that woman raised you. How could you…”
No matter how important interests were to her, Mrs. Huo didn’t expect Huo You to disregard the life of her adoptive mother for a plan that didn’t have much of a chance of success. This girl with a devil in her heart was her biological daughter?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Huo suddenly shuddered.
Huo You snorted and her gaze landed on Mrs. Huo indifferently. It was as if she could see the fear deep in her heart. She said mockingly, “Mom, hasn’t this been what you’ve been teaching me? You don’t like me to treat her as my mother, so why should you care about her life and death? Moreover, like you, she only likes Huo Tian. Since that’s the case, why should I be softhearted?”
Mrs. Huo frowned tightly. She did not show the turbulent emotions on her face. It turned out that in Huo You’s heart, she felt that she valued Huo Tian more than her. And if anyone liked Huo Tian instead of her, she would treat them as her enemies. Even if that “enemy” was the adoptive mother who had brought her up painstakingly, she would still plot against her life without any care.
Then, what about her, who was her biological mother? In Huo You’s heart, would her biological mother, who liked Huo Tian more, one day become a part of her schemes?
Mr. Huo’s thoughts weren’t as scattered as Mrs. Huo’s, but he was still angry about everything Huo You had done.
His face was livid and he couldn’t suppress the anger in his voice. “Huo You, you’re really out of control! You didn’t tell your family about such an important plan and instead struck a deal with He Yu on your own.. Do you take me, your father, seriously?”
