454 Biased Father
“Ze’en, sit down too. Dad has something to tell you.” Li Tingfeng barely said this.
Ze’en simply sat down. “Yes, Dad.”
Li Zefeng glared at Li Ze’en angrily. She originally felt a little guilty towards this sister and felt that she had let her down by snatching her father. However, in the past, Ze’en had caused a scene in school and publicized that Li Zefeng was an illegitimate child, causing Zefeng to be isolated by her classmates. Zefeng’s heart was greatly hurt in that incident.
Slowly, Ze Feng’s personality changed. She began to hate Li Ze’en.
“Dad, why is she sitting with us?” Ze Feng immediately raised her dissatisfaction.
!!
Li Tingfeng said, “Feng’er, she’s your sister and Dad’s daughter. Of course, she’s qualified to sit here.”
“I don’t like her. I don’t want her with us.” Ze Feng threw a tantrum.
Ze’en glanced at Li Zefeng and smiled. “Don’t you want to sit with me? Then when Dad is old in the future, do you want to support him with me? Don’t you want to?”
Ze’en was older than Zefeng. In addition, she had suffered from grievances in the past few years. Hence, after tempering her heart, she became exquisite.
How could Zefeng be her match?
Ze’en’s words rendered Zefeng speechless.
Ze’en muttered, “In any case, I have to support my father. Since you’re unwilling to work with me, you don’t have to support him.”
Li Tingfeng’s expression was ugly.
Zefeng’s behavior today made him feel she was petty. She was not as generous as Ze’en.
Seeing that her father was angry, Zefeng used her trump card. She pounced on Li Tingfeng’s knee and wheedled, “Dad, I will support you. I just don’t like her. Because she caused me to be isolated by my classmates.”
Such childish honesty immediately won Li Tingfeng’s gentle comfort. “Alright. Dad knows that you’ve suffered.”
Li Ze’en looked at the scene of father and daughter being so affectionate and felt an inexplicable ache in her heart.
Li Tingfeng had never treated her like this. She did not dare to wheedle at him. When she was young, he often missed her various milestones, such as birthday parties and graduation meetings. Because she had seen very little of him, she was in awe of her father.
Li Tingfeng comforted Li Zefeng and cut to the chase. “As you all know, Dad has recently earned a sum of money and the family’s economy is slightly more relaxed. If you are in trouble, tell Dad. I’ll help if I can.”
Li Zefeng was the first to speak. “Dad, I want to study overseas. I heard from my senior that I have to spend millions every year.”
“It’s a good thing to study abroad to improve yourself. Dad has saved your four years of university fees for you.”
Zefeng grinned and pecked Li Tingfeng’s face. “Thank you, Dad.”
Ze’en recalled the 100,000 dollars Li Tingfeng had given her a few days ago. That sum was worlds apart from Li Zefeng’s millions every year.
This huge difference made Ze’en’s heart ache.
At this moment, Li Tingfeng looked at Li Zeyu. “Zeyu, what about you?”
“I don’t have any financial difficulties for the time being,” Zeyu said.
Li Tingfeng forced it on him. “You’re not young anymore. It’s time for you to find a girlfriend. How about this? Dad will give you hundreds of thousands of pocket money every month in the future. You have to find us a daughter-in-law as soon as possible.”
Ze’en swallowed. A few hundred thousand dollars in pocket money?
Hehe, what a joke. Li Tingfeng had never given her 100,000 dollars to save her life.
Li Ze’en decided to disgust herself again. She stood up boldly and said, “Dad, I want to start my own business. Can you give me a sum of money?”
Li Tingfeng blurted out, “Didn’t I give it to you a few days ago?”
Li Ze’en was dumbfounded. “That 100,000 dollars? It’s not enough.”
Li Tingfeng might have realized that he was too biased, so he said, “Ze’en, Dad doesn’t have much money left after giving it to Zefeng and Zeyu. How about this? When Dad has money next time, I’ll give it to you first, okay?”
Li Ze’en only felt that it was extremely ridiculous.
It turned out that even if she was his good daughter, she might not be able to obtain Li Tingfeng’s sincerity.
“Dad, there’s no need. I don’t have money to start a business. I’ll just go out to work.”
Li Zefeng looked at Ze’en smugly with a provocative gaze.
Logically speaking, after what Ze’en had suffered, she should have left. Instead, she sat there in humiliation.
She wanted to monitor Li Tingfeng and Li Zeyu’s conversation.
However, in Li Tingfeng’s eyes, he despised this daughter who gave in to money and had no backbone.
He did not look at her anymore and tended to Zefeng and Ze Yu the entire time.
“Zeyu, Dad’s business has expanded a lot recently. Do you want to come back and help Dad?”
“Dad, I’m not interested in your business.”
“Dad is old. Aren’t you going to help me?”
Zeyu fell into a dilemma. “Well…”
His mother scolded him at the side, “Zeyu, your father’s health is not the same as before. You should learn to share some of your father’s responsibility.”
Zeyu was filial, so he nodded in agreement.
Li Tingfeng said, “Come back to Dad’s company to work tomorrow.”
Li Ze’en had an idea and begged humbly, “Dad, can I enter your company for an internship?”
Li Tingfeng frowned. Ze’en begged in a low voice, “It’s just an internship. Dad, you know that my education level is not high. If I can enter Dad’s big company for an internship and work in a small company after that, no one will make things difficult for me.”
Li Tingfeng reluctantly agreed.
Ze’en cheered happily. “Thank you, Dad.”
Zefeng mocked her. “Is this enough to make you happy?”
Li Ze’en glanced at Li Tingfeng and smiled when she saw his embarrassed expression.
She replied to Zefeng, “Although we have the same father, our lives are different. I’m already satisfied that I can do this.”
With that, she left.
Qiao An was already waiting in the courtyard outside after seeing the old man.
Seeing Li Ze’en walk over with a dark expression, Qiao An went up to her.
“Why? Are you angry again?” she asked.
Ze’en lowered her voice. “All the benefits have been given to those two illegitimate children. I was so humble, but I haven’t been given anything.”
Qiao An had already heard from the old man that Ze’en had been humbly currying favor with Li Tingfeng recently. She was also speechless at Li Tingfeng’s favoritism.
She patted Ze’en’s shoulder. “It’s okay, Ze’en. If we can’t be rich second-generation heirs, we’ll be determined to be rich through our own work.”
Ze’en nodded. She told Qiao An excitedly again, “But he promised to let me intern at his company.”
Qiao An’s eyes lit up. “Find a way to get evidence of him evading taxes and breaking the law.”
“Yeah.”
