Cheng Xijun, just watch me this time as I will not let you off easily

I sprained my neck, and he took me to the hospital

Although I felt a bit guilty, I still wore a disdainful expression on my face and raised my head high to argue back

Only when I saw that no one was around did I dare to take a breath. The fever had not completely subsided, and my legs went weak, causing me to sit down on the ground.

Chi Yanzhe stubbornly said: "It is simply a lie"

You have changed

However, if I am not Yao Haixu, but merely Ruo Qiqi, perhaps in the eyes of others, my identity would seem even more humble

Mr. Chi was startled by me, furrowing his brows and looking at me with a face full of disgust, waiting for me to continue speaking

I forced back the bitterness in my eyes and smiled at Chi Yanze.

I pointed to my stiff neck and quietly reported the truth. Not daring to look at the frightening expression on Mr. Chi's face, I wisely lowered my eyelids.

I ... ...

Mr. Chi did not ask his son, but instead looked directly at me. It seems he knows that if he were to ask Chi Yanze, he might not necessarily get an answer

Indeed, now that I am Yao Haixu, the daughter of the steward, I cannot stay in the mansion for too long; once school is over, I must return to Yao Haixu's home

As I entered, I released my grip on Chi Yanze's clothing, and he looked at me in astonishment.

The most shocking is yet to come

Indeed, as soon as we entered the living room, we saw Chi standing in the center with an arrogant posture and a stern expression, his gaze icy and fixed on us

I shared my experiences with Chi Yanze, but he merely stared at me blankly, his dark, bright eyes reflecting an indescribable meaning.

I followed behind Mama Yao with trepidation, unable to help but reach out and grasp the hem of Chi Yanze's clothing, attempting to alleviate the unease within me

After saying this, Mr. Chi went upstairs, and Mama Yao also went to make a phone call, leaving only me and Chi Yanze in the entire living room

Chi let out a cold snort, no longer speaking, but instead scrutinized Chi Yanze with a probing gaze, as if assessing whether he had sustained any injuries

Forget it, why think so much

Hello! Why are you making such a serious face? Now that your father knows, Cheng Xijun will no longer bully you in the future

It is done, I suddenly have a bad feeling, Mr. Chi wants to see me, it surely cannot be anything good. He will definitely question us about why we have only just returned now

Cheng Xijun is the son of General Manager Cheng

I am not Yao Haixu, so it is only natural that I differ from the Yao Haixu in his memories. Ever since my parents passed away in a car accident when I was six years old, I have been living with my aunt. My aunt often disappears for days and nights, leaving me to find ways to fill my stomach on my own, which inevitably required me to learn these survival skills. Sometimes, I even resorted to lying and deceiving to avoid being harmed.

This was the first time Chi Yanze spoke these words to me, and it was the first time I found myself at a loss for words

He glanced at me without saying anything

I shuddered all over, and my heart began to race.

Chi Yanze fell silent once again

Ha ha

However, it seems that Chi Yanze does not like others to lie, yet in my view, this is not a bad trait

Why did you come back so late today

I looked at him with suspicion, wondering what had upset him, as he seemed very unhappy

This guy is so honest; if he tells President Chi the truth and his father finds out that his nose was injured because of me, wouldn't that be disastrous for me

I only need to live happily for myself

I did not say much more, as I saw Aunt Yao coming over after finishing her phone call. She gave me a glance, indicating that I should leave.

When I think of something and intend to conceal it, it is already too late; Chi Xinjian's cold gaze has already fallen upon Chi Yanze's nose, which is covered with a band-aid.

No one protects me, so I can only learn to protect myself

"Yes, sir, he is the eldest son of Mr. Cheng. When he was young, he often came here to play with the young master," said Mama Yao respectfully.

You cannot always endure in silence; it is precisely because of this that Cheng Xijun has the audacity to bully you. One should not conduct oneself in this manner; when it is time to retaliate, one must retaliate, otherwise everyone will take advantage of you

Report! I raised my hand and waved it in front of Director Chi, calling out anxiously

Mr. Chi remained silent for a moment, seemingly lost in thought.

After a moment of silence, Mr. Chi gritted his teeth, displaying a look of resentment, and said: "I never expected that the elder would cause me trouble in the business world, and now the younger one is doing the same. My son, Chi Xinjian, is not someone who can be bullied by Cheng Guanghua's son! Aunt Yao, please call Secretary Liu; I need to speak with him."

"What is going on here? What did you both do at school today, coming back with injuries?" With a loud "bang," Director Chi slammed his hand forcefully on the table, his voice resonating powerfully as he roared at me

When I thought he would not speak again, he opened his mouth once more, his tone carrying a hint of sadness: "Do not tell the adults."

After a long time, Cheng Xijun and Chi Yanze have known each other for quite a while

"It's just you, it's just that you don't lie, which is why you are always bullied by Cheng Xijun"

Seeing Chi Yanze press his lips together, as if contemplating how to respond, I quickly rushed in front of him

I can no longer smile, and I feel a sense of fear within me

I don't care who you are; once Director Chi makes his move, you are doomed

Unexpectedly, Mr. Chi did not explode in anger immediately; instead, he wore a sullen expression and turned to ask Aunt Yao, who was standing nearby

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Yao Haixu's mother standing at the entrance.

When we were young, we often played together, didn't we have a close relationship? Then why did he always bully Chi Yanze?

She cast a gloomy glance at me, then relaxed her stiff expression and bent down to say to Chi Yanze: "Young Master, the gentleman is waiting for you in the room"

I am certain that I did not hear incorrectly; it is not "waiting for you," but rather "waiting for you all"

Chi Yanze walked over, pulled me up, his face filled with an expression of indifference

Why is it not possible

Where have I lied? Most of it is the truth!

Hearing my words, Chi Yanze glanced at me and coldly said, "You are lying."

By the time we returned to the Chi family, it was already past seven in the evening

Well, at most I will not do this in the future. From now on, I will only tell kind lies

It is Cheng Xijun! Everything is Cheng Xijun's fault; he always brings people to bully Chi Yanze. His nose was injured by Cheng Xijun, and I... I..." As I got carried away, I turned my head and winked at the astonished Chi Yanze, then squeezed out a few drops of tears with great effort, turning back to face Mr. Chi, my voice choked with emotion. "And I injured my neck while trying to save Chi Yanze... Boohoo. I turned my head and winked at the astonished Chi Yanze again, then squeezed out a few drops of tears with great effort, turning back to face Mr. Chi, my voice choked with emotion. "And I injured my neck while trying to save Chi Yanze... Boohoo. ... Mr. Chi, that Cheng Xijun is truly despicable; he even said to me, 'Do you know who I am, how dare you provoke me?' But no matter how powerful his family is, how can they bully Chi Yanze? It's one thing to bully me, but how can they bully the young master?

Phew... that was close

I have been living like this for so many years, just like this.

I heard from Mama Yao that Chi Yanze usually does not speak to his father

I am not the real Yao Haixu, so he has no right to demand that I become as good as the little girl he remembers

If my neck could move, I would definitely bury my head very low right now

Was I bullied outside, and now I can't even talk about it at home
