Qin Ya’s expression didn’t look too good when she heard what Mo Feifei said. She clenched the wallet in her hand tightly. Qin Ya had two more cards inside, but there was no money in those cards. It would be even more embarrassing if Qin Ya took them out.

  Now, Qin Ya was puzzled as to why her account was frozen.

  She paid with her card for the things she bought yesterday. Why couldn’t she pay with the same card today?

  Mo Feifei saw that Qin Ya was quiet. She took two steps forward and pushed Qin Ya to the side. She put her clothes on the counter and turned her head to look at Qin Ya. The mocking in Mo Feifei’s eyes was even more obvious. “Let me pay first. In the meantime, you can look for your other cards.”


  Qin Ya was forced to take two steps back. Not only did she lose face, but she was also in a very sorry state.

  She looked at Mo Feifei’s condescending attitude when she took out her card and handed it to the cashier. There was also that faintly discernible mocking gaze. Mo Feifei’s attitude was like an invisible chain that suffocated and tortured Qin Ya.

  Qin Ya finally couldn’t stand Mo Feifei’s smug and mocking eyes and attitude. She held her card, said that something came up in the family, and left in a hurry.

  After Qin Ya arrived at home.

  Qin Hai, who had been busy working for the whole day, had also returned home. When he was at the business dinner, the other party forced down a lot of drinks to him. He had drunk quite a lot of wine. He came back home furious.

  At this moment, Qin Hai was sitting on the sofa, smoking one cigarette after another.

  Qin Ya saw Qin Hai on the sofa and hurriedly walked over, her voice was filled with confusion and grievance. “Dad, why is my account frozen? I went shopping with Mo Feifei today. But when I was paying, my card didn’t work. Mo Feifei made a fool out of me.”


  Qin Hai suddenly said, “I froze it.”


  Qin Ya looked at Qin Hai in disbelief. “Dad, what do you mean? Why did you freeze my account? Do you know how embarrassing it was when I was paying the bill today? Mo Feifei……”


  Before Qin Ya could finish her sentence, Qin Hai slapped her. This slap was out of rage.

  Following that was Qin Hai’s angry shout, “Shut up!”


  The re was only silence left in the living room.

  Qin Ya’s face was forced to turn. Bright red palm prints appeared on her fair cheeks instantly. Even the corner of her mouth had a small cut, and blood could be seen.

  Qin Ya was also stunned by the slap, and her head buzzed.

  Qin Hai’s face was red because he had drunk too much, but it turned red also because of his anger. The veins on his forehead bulged, and his eyes turned red because of his anger.

  “You are all grown up now, right? I asked you to come out, and you acted like some god. I worked so hard to earn money, and you interrogate me as soon as you come back? Do you see me as your father or as an ATM? Everyone is being inconsiderate. Do you all think that money comes from the sky?”


  Because of what happened to Mu Lan and the Linhai Villa, Qin Ya had ruined his plans twice. When Qin Hai asked her to come out, she didn’t come out. Also, the contract wasn’t settled today, so he lost a lot of money.

  Qin Ya’s question became the fuse that caused Qin Hai to explode.

  Qin Hai had been holding back his anger for a few days. But tonight, he finally exploded under the influence of alcohol.

  Qin Ya covered her face. Her cheeks burned with pain. She looked at Qin Hai in disbelief. This was the second time Qin Hai had hit her. It hurt so much, much more than the last time.

  Though Qin Ya felt wrong, she did not dare to make a sound because she saw how angry Qin Hai was.

  This was also the first time she had seen Qin Hai get so angry.

  She suddenly recalled what Qin Shu told her earlier. Qin Shu said that her father might be angry because of business matters. Qin Hai smelled of alcohol, so Qin Ya concluded that his father was angry because of business.
