Chapter 799: Treating His Daughter as a Tool

Editor: Henyee Translations

The originally quiet art gallery welcomed many rich and noble guests today.

However, this place was originally prepared for people who knew how to appreciate art. But today, it had no choice but to be tainted by fame and power in the business world.

After Murong Qiao resolved the problem, she was about to dry her hands and push the door open when she heard a low-pitched angry shout from the corner of the corridor.

“I didn’t bring you here to let you stand in the corner in a daze!”

This voice was still a little familiar, so Murong Qiao instinctively stopped in her tracks and her ears began to catch what the other party was saying.

“Do you know how much effort I spent to get this ticket? In the end, you just stood there.”

Wang Anyang stood by the window and looked at his daughter, who had been useless since she was young, standing in front of him with her head lowered. He felt angry.

Wang Yiran didn’t say anything. She just pursed her lips and didn’t say a word as she suffered her father’s scolding. The numbness on her face looked like she had long been used to this scene.

Seeing that his daughter was silent and seemed to be keeping her mouth shut, Wang Anyang felt that his anger was like punching cotton. It angered him even more and he couldn’t help but emphasize his words.

“I don’t want others to say that my daughter is as useless as her Mom.”

He spoke without any scruples. However, when he mentioned Wang Yiran’s mother, his disdainful and frustrated tone couldn’t help but make Wang Yiran clench her fists.

What Wang Anyang hated the most was his daughter’s expression. She looked like he wouldn’t get a response even after saying 11,000 words.

However, he knew what his daughter’s Achilles’ heel is, so he directly said ruthlessly, “If you really won’t do anything, I can only ask the hospital to stop the treatment for your mother first.”

After saying this, Wang Anyang seemed to know that this threat was useful, so he no longer had the anger from embarrassment. As if he was waiting for something, he crossed his arms and stood in front of Wang Yiran.

The atmosphere froze.

“Father, I’ll definitely listen to you,” Wang Yiran said anxiously.

When he heard this, Wang Anyang’s expression softened. Then, he sighed and patted his daughter’s shoulder earnestly.

“If you can be like that daughter of the Murong Family, I usually won’t say anything. She’s very capable and is even in-laws with the Huo Corporation now.”

“The environment you were born in is countless times better than others. Now, I also hope that you can give me a satisfactory answer.”

“If you want your mother to continue her treatment, listen to me.”

“Don’t let me down.”

With that, Wang Anyang turned around and left.

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the art gallery’s venue. He thought to himself that he hadn’t had a good time with Huo Yichen just now, but he couldn’t come here for nothing. He still had to contact the others later.

Wang Yiran stared at her father’s back in silence for a long time as he turned around and left. Her body stood rooted to the ground and didn’t move. From afar, she looked a little sad.

Murong Qiao walked over gently from the washroom and stood at the corner. She heard everything the two of them said clearly and saw the entire process.

She was a little surprised by Wang Anyang’s attitude of treating his daughter as a tool. Then, because of the content of their work, she had many guesses.

Although this kind of family situation didn’t seem to be too rare, Murong Qiao was a little surprised that it could happen to a person like Wang Anyang.

After all, from the other party’s performance with Huo Yichen just now, it could be seen that the other party was an extremely business-minded person.

At that moment, Murong Qiao’s image of the other party had decreased. That was because his feelings for his family were not good for his daughter.

While Murong Qiao was in a daze, the spot where Wang Yiran was standing became empty. She had probably left.

Seeing this, Murong Qiao turned around and returned to the direction she had come from. Huo Yichen didn’t seem to be where he was. He had probably been pulled away by someone again.

After Murong Qiao slowly walked around, she realized that Ruan Ying and Shen Xi were standing in front of a painting, a few steps away from her.

She leaned over and listened. The two of them seemed to be focused on chatting, so she deliberately lightened her footsteps and walked behind Ruan Ying. Then, she suddenly patted her shoulder with her right hand.

“Ah—Qiaoqiao?”

Ruan Ying’s voice, which was about to be amplified, stopped when she saw that it was Murong Qiao standing behind her. Her actions even looked a little funny.

When Shen Xi heard Ruan Ying call Murong Qiao’s name, she immediately turned around.

“Why didn’t you tell me you were here?” Murong Qiao looked at the two of them.

Hearing her say this, Ruan Ying immediately slapped her forehead in frustration. “Oh no, I forgot.”

“Xiao Xi pulled me over. She said that she wanted to come over secretly and not tell anyone. In the end, I forgot to tell you, Qiaoqiao,” Ruan Ying immediately explained.

Because Shen Xi had been going out more frequently recently, Su Rong gradually relaxed her previous control over her. However, she still didn’t want her daughter to go to crowded places. On the one hand, she was worried about her daughter’s health, and on the other hand, she was afraid that something would happen if there were too many people.

She was busy dealing with the Shen family’s matters every day and couldn’t take care of her daughter, so she had no choice.

Shen Xi knew her mother’s worries, but this was Yan Xiu’s first exhibition, so she couldn’t miss it. Hence, she pulled Ruan Ying along and promised her family. However, after coming out to shop, she secretly ran over.

After Shen Xi finished explaining, the lively Ruan Ying at the side couldn’t help but ask.

“Why didn’t I see An Nuo come with you?”

Seeing that Murong Qiao was alone and that the four of them usually came out to play together, she immediately asked about An Nuo.

“She’s been busy with work recently. She’s exhausted from running around.”

Murong Qiao had brought an invitation to An Nuo, but because the other party had been busy with work recently, she had no choice but to decline.

Actually, An Nuo also wanted to come, but the wound on her wrist had yet to recover. Coupled with the nature of her work, she might be followed and secretly photographed by the paparazzi wherever she went. When the time came, there would be so many people going to the exhibition, and it would be very easy for some problems to arise.

After much consideration, An Nuo rejected Murong Qiao’s invitation, but she still asked her to help her give Yan Xiu her blessings.

“That’s true. She’s a big celebrity.” Ruan Ying puffed up her cheeks.

Shen Xi smiled and teased, “Didn’t you say previously that you want An Nuo’s autographed photo so that you can go and show it off to your friends?”

“Isn’t that a reality now?”

When they had first known each other, An Nuo was not as popular as she was now. Hence, Ruan Ying would joke from time to time. At the same time, it was also a form of encouragement for An Nuo. She didn’t expect her words to come true.

“How can I show off?” Ruan Ying suddenly became serious. “I’ve kept all the gifts An Nuo gave me at home. I usually get the servants to clean them up and can’t bear to leave even a speck of dust behind..”
