After this misunderstanding, Song Yucheng's parents were no longer so resistant to the relationship between their son and Li Zhenzhen.

Their attitude visibly began to soften.

It was clear that it was only a matter of time before Li Zhenzhen and Song Yucheng, the lovers, would finally be together.

Li Zhenzhen was feeling elated, but Yu Qing hated her to the bone.

After solving this big problem, Li Zhenzhen started to look at me with disdain again.

After all, Li Jianghai was still frequently looking for her to "discuss life."

So, she was anxious to find a suitable person to "honor" her father on her behalf.

No one was more suitable for this than me.

In her eyes, I was just a powerless and lonely person.

After thinking it over, she still wanted to use her old tricks, drugging me effortlessly to make a done deal, after all, Yu Qing was a living example of success.

But I repeatedly refused her invitations.

Li Zhenzhen was not in a hurry. At this time, she was putting more effort into pretending to be obedient and clever to the Song family, using all sorts of tricks to marry into the Song family.

Perhaps she thought she was about to become the young mistress of the Song family, and became somewhat arrogant, leading her to start treating Li Jianghai coldly and even deliberately avoiding him.

One day, while Li Jianghai was strolling around, I "happened" to pass by and took the initiative to greet him.

Li Jianghai looked at me with a sticky and disgusting lewd gaze.

"Uncle Li, what has Zhenzhen been busy with lately? I haven't seen her properly."

Hearing my question, Li Jianghai's face turned sour, and he snorted coldly: "What else can she be doing? Of course, she's gone to date."

I nodded and continued, "Then they should be getting close to their happy ending, right? I'm really happy for Zhenzhen that she's finally getting what she wants."

Li Jianghai remained silent with a cold face.

"Uncle, did you have a quarrel with Zhenzhen? Zhenzhen said she hates you and that she will cut off ties with you once she's married. She even said... Oh, I can't even say those words. I can't understand how she can curse her own father like that."

"Uncle, you should talk to Zhenzhen more if you have time. Maybe she misunderstood you. You raised her so hard, and it wouldn't be good to end on bad terms. Of course, she's probably just saying things in anger. After all, you're father and daughter, you can't really sever ties, can you?"

Li Jianghai was furious and immediately stormed off to find Li Zhenzhen.

So, when Li Zhenzhen was having a sweet date with Song Yucheng, Li Jianghai charged over like an enraged bull, raised his arm and gave Li Zhenzhen a resounding slap, cursing her angrily as an unfilial daughter with a heart of a wolf and lungs of a dog, shameless.

This sudden turn of events left Song Yucheng stunned.

In a fit of anger, Li Jianghai paid no attention to anything, grabbed Li Zhenzhen's hair and started hitting and scolding her, his words extremely harsh, attracting the attention of passersby.

Seeing his girlfriend being harshly reprimanded, Song Yucheng felt both heartache and anger, but since it was her father, he could only patiently try to persuade him with kind words.

Li Jianghai, however, pointed at Song Yucheng's nose and cursed: "Get lost, you dog!"

For a proud person like Song Yucheng, this was the first time someone had pointed at his nose and cursed him. He was both angry and ashamed, feeling utterly humiliated.

Seeing her golden goose being treated like this, Li Zhenzhen began to struggle, trying to break free from Li Jianghai's grip: "Dad, what's wrong with you? Let go of me!"

Li Jianghai tightened his grip even more: "If you don't want this pretty boy to know about your dirty secrets, then come home with me obediently! Do you really think you can kick me out just because you've hooked up with some rich second generation? Dream on! Today, I'll teach you how to behave!"

With that, he forcefully dragged Li Zhenzhen away by her hair.

Li Zhenzhen, fearing that Li Jianghai might reveal something inappropriate in front of Song Yucheng, dared not resist.

As soon as they got home, Li Jianghai pushed Li Zhenzhen to the ground, grabbed her jaw fiercely and scolded: "You ungrateful thing! I generously allowed you to date, and you dare to turn your back on me? Should I let your boyfriend see what a slut you are, so you'll behave better?"

Li Zhenzhen couldn't speak, only making muffled pleading sounds, looking utterly miserable.

Li Jianghai, showing no pity, continued to beat and scold her, determined to make her painfully aware of his power, ensuring she wouldn't dare to entertain any more crazy ideas.

That night was extremely long for Li Zhenzhen. By dawn, she was exhausted and covered in bruises.

After getting injured, she didn't dare to see Song Yucheng, so she could only rack her brains to placate him over the phone.

However, for someone like Song Yucheng, who was used to being adored by everyone, that night's events were a dark shadow over his life, not something he could simply move past.

Therefore, during this period, Li Zhenzhen was deeply troubled and exhausted both physically and mentally.
