The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession-Chapter 964 - 46: Protecting Myself the Way He Protects Himself
Zhou Mingyu quickly said before Mr. Li spoke up: "Sisi, just listen to what grandpa says and donβt talk back to him!" π³πΏππππ²ππ»ππππ₯.ππ π
Li Siru immediately stood up, "I indeed shouldnβt talk back to grandpa. I should listen carefully to what grandpa says, but should I also accept the bad things grandpa says? Who is it that always says Iβm good for nothing? Who is it that doesnβt treat me as a human? Those who gave birth to and raised me donβt even regard me. Everyone knows that the Li Familyβs second miss is despised even by the Li Family, so even sons of nouveau riche dare to bully me! But, grandpa, when I get bullied at school, you still reprimand me for bringing shame. Do you not feel ashamed for forcing me into such a predicament? When others hit my face, isnβt that related to the Li Family?"
Mr. Liβs face turned blue, then white, hearing her words. In the past, even if she talked back, it was merely a stubborn retort; she had never been this righteously articulate, every word hitting the mark.
"Thatβs right, I am good for nothing! But, who decided my future when I was born, not as a boy? Even the sister had various tutors to guide her, while I didnβt even qualify to be taught. Initially treated as trash, now afraid that I might drag the sister down in front of the Lu Family, you expect me to suddenly become a distinguished lady?"
"Then you should prove to us that, even though you and your sister received vastly different treatment, you can still be a proper second miss and bring pride to the Li Family!"
Mr. Liβs response made Li Mengruβs heart tremble; what does grandpa mean?
Why compare her with Li Siru?
Can she really be compared to her?
"You treat me like trash; why should I bring pride to you?" Li Siru sneered, "Grandpa, I am also human!"
She opened the chair and walked out, "Youβre right; things shouldnβt be left unfinished! But my work at Yi Tai is unrelated to you; I do it because it makes me happy."
Her silhouette gradually disappeared, prompting Zhou Mingyu to quickly say: "Dad, Sisi might just be under too much work pressure, donβt hold it against her. When she gets off work tonight, I will make sure to teach her well."
"Itβs your teaching that raised this awful girl," Li Minghui chided from the side.
Mr. Li then said, "Alright, I want to see how capable she is."
Not pursuing the matter further?!
Zhou Mingyu couldnβt quite believe it, while Li Minghui cooperatively remained silent. Li Mengru then asked, "Grandpa, should I still go to the tea house to study later?"
"Of course you should go! Unless youβre saying youβve already learned everything?" Mr. Li frowned as he looked at her, "Youβve been slow in learning everything since you were a child, and you donβt put in enough effort. Even if youβre not interested in the matters of the tea house, they will still be your responsibility in the future."
"I understand, grandpa. Iβm not uninterested," Li Mengru replied softly, understanding grandpaβs meaning.
From a young age, she started learning how to be a proper young lady, yet every lesson taught by her tutors required her to slowly digest afterward.
But, Sisi, who secretly learned on the side, could immediately absorb the material.
The only time she was praised by grandpa for her excellent flower arranging skills was when Sisi casually arranged them!
Since then, grandpa strictly forbade Sisi from secretly learning.
Although grandpa never directly told her anything, she understood clearly that grandpa was subtly blaming her. Now, grandpaβs words implied that despite all your learning, if you canβt outdo your sister, it would be a joke!
Li Mengru tightly clenched the hem of her dress under the table; she was the eldest miss of the Li Family, the all-powerful New City socialite!
Everything belongs to her; she canβt lose!
