She had outed herself unintentionally and now the side quest she had ignored was now taking the fall.
Though she didn't know it.
Fang Euren looked his niece over with a new pair of stern eyes. How hard did she fall for her personality to change?
"Are you hurt anywhere?"
"No."
His gaze became harder. He finally sighed.
"Go back to your room for now. I will send a physician later. "
Fei Guiying kept her head low, she should be more mindful of this body's character. "Then...this one... will be leaving first..."
"But...Father..." Somehow the attention shifted her to focus on her cousin. Fang Meiyi bit her lips. Why was it always like this?
She stood out in front of her Father blocking his path.
"I'm hurt! Your daughter is hurt!"
"Do I have a daughter?" He addressed the air before coldly glancing at her. "Didn't I tell my daughter to behave herself in the past? Such a disobedient thing couldn't possibly be my own flesh and blood, that's impossible."

Seeing she had the spirit to protest his eyebrow twitched and his eyes widened.
"You still have the gall to think you were wronged? Was that slap not enough? Should I do it?" He raised his hand.
Fang Meiyi lowered herself, her eyes moistening with tears.
"Father...!"
He had never been kind to her but he had never been harsh either. He had always been indifferent but that was fine, that was her Dad. But today, she felt as if she had been doused with ice water.
Fang Euren closed his eyes and shook his head, his eyebrow twitching. After calming himself he looked straight ahead. "How embarrassing."
He walked away before her knees could even touch the floor. The cold breeze he left made her shiver.
She tightened her hands into fists.
Why, why does he only pay attention to cousin? I'm his daughter!
