Chapter 253: Who Gave Birth To You
Li Jingran hated and was disappointed in her daughter. She had no feelings for Shen Xi, yet at the same time, was aware of the latter’s value. Recognizing Shen Xi as part of the family would be the best and most beneficial choice for herself and the Su family.
Otherwise, she would never swallow her pride and yield to Shen Xi.
Shen Xi’s eyes reflected a chilling contempt. “Who are you?”
Su Yi put on a solemn look. “Shen Xi, I’m your father. What’s this tone you’re using to talk with me?
Shen Xi scoffed coldly. “My dad’s at home. Who are you to pretend to be my father? My dad doesn’t have your ugly looks.”
Su Yi had witnessed her sharp tongue the day she left the Su residence. However, it still struck a nerve in him to hear it again. “You’re way out of line. Is this how I taught you to talk with others?”
“This is how I talk. Uncultured or not…” Shen Xi smiled brightly. “… has nothing to do with you.”
Playing hardball would not work since she refused to listen and it might just make her rebel. Hence, Su Yi took a milder approach. “Xixi, I know that I’ve wronged you and I’ve been regretting it. Your mom and I feel remorseful to have such a falling out with you in the heat of the moment. However, we shouldn’t hold grudges between family members. Your mom and I will dote on you and give you whatever you want if you come home with us.”
“Mr. Su, man, you have skin so thick even bullets can’t penetrate.” Shen Xi chuckled. “My dad is Shen Zhangqing. My mom is Yun Jinping. Don’t think so highly of yourselves. I don’t know you.”
Rage was brewing in Li Jingran’s eyes while she clenched her fists as she huffed and puffed.
The d*mn brat. Look at her attitude. She was an uncultured brute who had nothing decent except venom coming out of her mouth.
Su Yi may have choked but he had a different agenda in mind. He believed she said what she said for leverage and to pretend she did not care to get more out of him. Su Yi proceeded to say, “Don’t you want to go into showbiz? You told me before and I didn’t do right by you then. Come home with us and you’ll be the star of National Idol. Mom and Dad will provide full support to your career and make you famous.”
Shen Xi raised a brow. “I don’t give a sh*t.”
“Shen Xi, don’t push it.” Winded, Li Jingran threw her an angry look. “Don’t forget who gave birth to you. Without me and your dad, there’s no you.”
Shen Xi must think she was all that and can have complete disregard for them because she was Cai Ni and Jiang Yin’s student. Well, without them, she would not become who she was now.
“Then I should really thank you.” Shen Xi indifferently grinned. “I was just thinking, as a person, how could anyone live as shamelessly as you two?”
The smile on Su Yi’s face froze. However, he quickly warned Li Jingran when she was about to give Shen Xi a piece of her mind. “Xixi, don’t be angry. We only did so because you’re our daughter.”
Their top priority coming here was to bring her home without further delay. They made an agreement to refrain from getting upset or reprimand her regardless of what Shen Xi said. They must remain nice while talking to Shen Xi.
“For the last time, I’m not going back.” Shen Xi curled her lips looking rather dangerous and bloodthirsty. “Give it up. I’m not Su Ruowan who would be your accessory that you can show off or a pawn to be used in your best interest.”
