Chapter 458

"Considering this is your first offense, and Xiao Rou loves and defends you, her sister, so much."

"As long as you apologize to her properly and write a [Letter of Guarantee] swearing to repent sincerely, we will act as if nothing happened..."

"In the future, we will still treat you as our good daughter. I hope you cherish this opportunity and don't let us down again."

".........."

Hearing his father so easily intend to let off Chu Ling, the "murderer."

Tang Chuan immediately frowned, his fists clenched in anger.

Especially seeing Tang Rou's miserable appearance covered in blood, he felt even more enraged. The little bit of goodwill he had finally managed to build up for Chu Ling vanished instantly.

He felt his father's decision was truly biased and too unfair to Tang Rou.

After all, Chu Ling had almost killed his precious sister.

Now, just a light apology was enough to brush the matter aside; it was simply too absurd and ridiculous...

Don't forget, if apologies were useful, what would we need police for?!!

Thinking of this, Tang Chuan was about to stand up and protest to seek justice for his precious sister...

"Brother, o(＞﹏＜)o don't~~~"

"Xiao Rou begs you, I don't want you to have a conflict with your own sister."

".........."

Just as Tang Chuan made a move, his wrist was grabbed by a force. Turning back in surprise, he saw Tang Rou looking at him pitifully, her eyes full of pleading.

Even now, Xiao Rou is still thinking of me...

(╥╯^╰╥) My sister... is truly too kind...

Tang Chuan was deeply moved and, unable to resist Tang Rou's pleading eyes, finally agreed to let it go for now.

But in his heart, he felt even more heartache for Tang Rou, deciding to cherish and protect her even more in the future. As for that sister, Chu Ling...

╭(╯^╰)╮ Hmph.

A woman with such a snake-like heart is not worthy of being his, the Third Young Master of the Tang family's, sister!!!!!

On the other side.

Tang Guoan crossed his arms, his face cold, waiting for Chu Ling's apology.

To be honest, he was a bit disappointed; he didn't expect his own daughter to be so jealous.

To monopolize the love of her family, she actually dared to push Tang Rou down the stairs right in front of them.

What if they weren't home?

Wouldn't Xiao Rou be in danger of her life at any time...

Sigh, ever since he learned that Chu Ling was raised by that vicious couple, he had harbored faint worries in his heart.

Now it seems... the worry has finally come true...

As the saying goes: Poor mountains and evil waters produce unruly people.

It's normal for his own daughter to have been raised crookedly after living in such a vile environment from a young age, and it's understandable that her character has some flaws.

Unlike Tang Rou...

Because of their family's leading by example and education full of positive energy, she could be cultivated into such a simple, kind, and upright person.

However, Tang Guoan also knew in his heart that it wasn't Chu Ling's fault that she had become so "vicious."

If one really had to assign blame...

They, as her biological parents, were also hard to absolve of blame; at the very least, they had to take half the responsibility.

That was why he decided to give Chu Ling a chance to turn over a new leaf.

As long as she sincerely repented, his own daughter, who had his kind genes and bloodline flowing in her, would surely be able to correct her ways quickly and become a gentle and kind young lady just like Tang Rou.

Just as Tang Guoan was lost in his fantasies...

He noticed that Chu Ling had been standing in the same spot the whole time, completely treating his words as wind in her ears, and he immediately felt uncomfortable.

You have to know, Tang Rou had always been very obedient to him, never needing him to worry, and was always compliant with him as a father; such a situation of being ignored never existed.

But this biological daughter? Hmph, comparing the two, the difference was clear.

Tang Guoan couldn't help but shake his head inwardly, sighing that the daughter raised from childhood was more sensible.

This biological daughter clearly had wild habits and didn't have a shred of gratitude toward her parents; she was hard to educate...

Therefore, Tang Guoan could only exert his authority as a strict father, attempting to use his own kingly aura to lead Chu Ling onto the right path.

"Xiao Ling!!! Didn't you hear what Dad said? Hurry up and apologize to your sister!"

"If you continue to be so disrespectful to your elders, Dad is going to get angry!"

"Dad can understand your jealousy toward your sister, but she is truly innocent; you shouldn't be so jealous."

"Because what your sister has, you will also have in the future; you won't be lacking anything..."

"Mom and Dad will treat you equally. So there's no need for you to maliciously target Xiao Rou. Dad will teach you a principle of life today..."

"In this life, suffering a loss is a blessing. Those who are willing to suffer losses will always be rewarded in the end..."

"We should be more magnanimous and not always dwell on the past or be petty. Only then will life be easy and happy, understand?"

".........."

Tang Guoan deepened his tone and once again demanded that Chu Ling come over to apologize, but he completely failed to notice his biological daughter's gradually chilling expression.

"I didn't push her, why should I apologize?!"

Finally, Chu Ling spoke up to defend herself.

Although she knew the hope was slim, she couldn't endure this grievance.

Hearing this, Tang Guoan's brows were almost knitted into a "Chuan" character.

He didn't expect this biological daughter to be so stubborn; clearly, there were three pairs of eyes here that saw it clearly, yet she was still telling lies with her eyes open, deceiving herself.

This made Tang Guoan extremely disappointed, and he shook his head and sighed repeatedly.

To the side, before he could even speak, Tang Chuan was the first to angrily rebuke:

"What a joke, you didn't push Xiao Rou. Could it be that she fell down herself? Just to deliberately frame you?"

"Yes, yes, did you see it?"

Chu Ling's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly.

She thought this silly brother Tang Chuan finally wasn't blind for once.

Tang Chuan: "..........."

"Still 'yes'??? Yes your big head! Do you think we're all blind?"

"I turned around and saw you pushing Xiao Rou, and then I rushed over."

"Now that both human and physical evidence are present, how long do you intend to quibble?!"

"Hmph! You even dare to slander Xiao Rou?! She was almost disfigured from the fall, you know that?!"

"I'm telling you! No girl is willing to use her own face to frame others..."

"............"

Because Tang Rou used her position to block the line of sight and acted very realistically, in the eyes of outsiders, she was pushed down the stairs by Chu Ling; there was no way to clear her name.

So, hearing that Chu Ling was still "quibbling" at this point and refused to lower her head and admit her mistake, Tang Chuan's gaze toward her became increasingly dissatisfied.

Alright then~~~

It seems this Third Brother of mine is not only stupid but also quite blind.

No!

It should be said that except for herself, everyone present was blind, not only blind in their eyes but also in their hearts...

At this moment, Chu Ling was completely desperate and gave up on arguing.

Because she knew that with their preconceived notions, whatever she said would be taken as "quibbling"...

From the moment Tang Rou viciously attacked her, she was already unable to clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

But what she didn't do, she didn't do; she would absolutely not apologize for something she hadn't done, especially to that green tea who framed her. Don't even think about it!!!!

Seeing the conflict intensifying, Xu Xu Xu Shuyun, who had been silent, finally stepped out to interrupt the dispute.

"Enough, that's enough! Take Xiao Rou to the hospital first to have a look; her injuries cannot be delayed. Otherwise, it won't be good if scars are left on her face."

"As for other matters... everyone calm down first, and wait until Xiao Rou's forehead wound is treated!"

"Butler, you take Chu Ling to her room to rest first! Come, Xiao Rou! Mom will take you to the hospital first!"

".........."
