Zhao Youxi had been forced to give in to Zhao Youlin just now, so she had angrily gone back to the Zhao family. She felt that she had never suffered this kind of humiliation before.

  Li Hongyu was initially resting upstairs. When she heard the sound of things breaking downstairs, she instantly woke up from her nap. She quickly put on a cardigan and ran down from the upper floor.

  In the end, when she walked to the stairs, she saw her precious daughter grabbing things and smashing them on the floor with a ferocious expression. She looked like Zhao Shuncheng when he discovered Zhao Youlin’s divorce that day.

  The maids at the side wanted to walk forward to advise Zhao Youxi, but they were not in the place to do that. Besides, Zhao Youxi was fiercely smashing things, so nobody dared to easily get close to her. Even if they kindly advised her, they would probably become innocent victims.

  “Youxi, what are you doing? Why are you so angry? Look at what you’ve made the house look like now. If your father comes back and sees this, he will scold you.” Li Hongyu frowned, and she stood beside the staircase while she spoke sincerely.

  Zhao Youxi usually was very obedient to Li Hongyu. When she heard Li Hongyu’s voice at this time, she instantly stopped what she was doing. The table lamp that was lifted by her dropped from her hand, and it fell to the floor with a breaking sound.

  Zhao Youxi immediately turned around and rushed toward Li Hongyu. She looked aggrieved while crying with tears on her face and saying, “Mom, you have to help me! You have to help me!”


  When Zhao Youxi acted like this, she made Li Hongyu scared. Since Li Hongyu brought Zhao Youxi and her younger brother into the Zhao family fifty years ago, they had never suffered any grievance.

  It was always the siblings who bullied other people. It was never other people’s turn to bully them. Therefore, this was the first time Zhao Youxi had felt so aggrieved.

  “Youxi, stop crying first. You’re making me feel so heartbroken. Who bullied you this time? If anything happened, just tell me. I’ll help you. Don’t cry anymore.” Li Hongyu reached out to wipe the tears off Zhao Youxi’s face.

  However, Zhao Youxi became more agitated because of Li Hongyu’s words. She raised her hand and swiped Li Hongyu’s hand away before she yelled in a deep voice, “Who else could it be? It’s all because of Zhao Youlin, the witch!”


  When Li Hongyu heard Zhao Youlin’s name, her expression instantly changed. She discreetly reached out to pull Zhao Youxi’s hand and stop her from saying, “Let’s go to your room and talk about it.”


  After she spoke, she turned around, cast a glance at the group of maids not far away, and said in a low voice, “All of you, clean up here.”


  A few maids stared at each other and dared not ignore them. They lowered their heads and responded by answering, “Yes.”


  Li Hongyu nodded in satisfaction. She then pulled the unhappy Zhao Youxi upstairs.

  It was only when they walked into Zhao Youxi’s room and closed the door that Li Hongyu sighed in relief slightly. She frowned and asked, “Did you go and find Zhao Youlin, the witch? Didn’t I tell you not to be bothered with this since I’ll handle it? Why didn’t you listen to me?”


  “I…” Zhao Youxi was speechless. She lowered her head and babbled, “I heard you and Daddy talking about the witch that day, so I was quite angry. I thought of going to meet her alone. Who would’ve thought that…”


  “When you went there, did she do anything to you?” Li Hongyu gently sighed before she felt worried as she asked.

  The situation where Zhao Youlin alone fought with a bunch of security guards that day was still vivid in her mind, and it was still extremely shocking to Li Hongyu. It was only because of this that Li Hongyu had made it clear to stop Zhao Youxi from looking for Zhao Youlin. She was afraid that Zhao Youlin would be triggered and injure Zhao Youxi.

  It was still good that Li Hongyu did not ask. Her question made Zhao Youxi recall the humiliation that she had suffered from Zhao Youlin earlier, and she angrily shouted, “She wanted to kill me. Mom, she nearly killed me!”


  “What?!”
