Xiao Yunyao gave her father a confused look, wondering how he knew the scar faced man accompanying her sister tonight. Her father's face blanched upon hearing what this man said. His eyes turned to her and disappointment flashed on his face.
"Yaoyao insulted you?" He asked in disbelief. As if he couldn't believe that his sweet and gentle daughter was capable of doing such a thing.
Yan Xiuchen shrugged and took a seat in the nearest armchair and crossed his legs as if he was the one who owned the place. Xiao Rufeng stood next to him and placed a hand over his shoulder, not daring to leave his side.
"Oh, yes." Xiao Rufeng gritted her teeth and shot her younger sister a scathing glare.
"What was it again? Ah, I whored myself to this scar faced man because he's loaded with money and could help me advance in my career. How very good of you, dear little sister."
Xiao Yunyao was still confused about what was happening. She could only surmise that the person Xiao Rufeng brought today was acquainted with their father. The man must be really loaded with money if their father was on edge by his mere presence in their home.
"You did what?"
Her father turned to face her, his whole body trembling with rage. Xiao Yunyao had never seen her father this angry, well not when it's directed to her. He was usually ballistic whenever Xiao Rufeng did something stupid.
"I…" She had no words to refute or deny her older sister's claim.
"How could you say such vicious words to your sister?! Yunyao, I'm so disappointed with you. No matter what differences you have with your sister, you shouldn't have crossed the line and disrespected her like this!" He chided her.
"But…" So he was upset at her disrespecting Xiao Rufeng and not because of the scar faced man?
Xiao Yunyao wanted to reason out that it was her older sister who wanted to ruin their night by bringing an outsider to their private dinner. They were supposed to celebrate her upcoming nuptial with Jin Qiu, and she wanted to see Xiao Rufeng wallow in self-pity. However, she had never expected that her sister would bring a plus one with her tonight.
Their father turned his attention back to her sister's companion. His back so stiff, Xiao Yunyao wondered what was wrong with her father. She had never seen him this nervous, not even when they were meeting business associates and prospective investors.
"CEO Yan… you know my eldest daughter?" He gave Xiao Rufeng a questioning look.
"More like I'm dating her." Yan Xiuchen lifted a hand and covered Xiao Rufeng's hand that was on his shoulder. The smile he gave her was a bit lopsided due to the scar at the corner of his mouth, but Xiao Rufeng blushed regardless of it.
Her father was a bit startled by the news. Although he knew that her daughter had dated before, she never bothered to introduce any of them to their family. He wondered if things between them were serious.
"But who would have thought that as soon as we came here, I would be insulted by your youngest daughter. She even went as far as painting Rufeng as a slutty woman who sleeps around." Yan Xiuchen's tone went low and became frightening. His eyes narrowed dangerously on Xiao Yunyao.
Xiao Yunyao shivered under his gaze, but she refused to avert her gaze from him. Doing so would only mean that she admitted her wrongdoings. She would never give Xiao Rufeng the satisfaction of winning against her.
"I… I apologize on her behalf, CEO Yan. It's me who failed to teach my daughter well." Their father lowered his head, much to everyone's shock. Even Xiao Rufeng was rendered speechless seeing her father act like this.
"Dad!" Xiao Yunyao hurried next to her father and nudged him to stand up straight.
"How could you do this? Not only did you degrade your own sister, but you also offended the wrong person." Her father asked as he flung her hand away from his arm and looked at her with disappointment.
"Xiao Yunyao, did I spoil you so much that you would run your mouth carelessly and offend anyone at will?" He glowered at her, and Xiao Yunyao was taken aback by his words.
Her father had indeed spoiled her from the moment she was born and gave everything she ever wanted willingly. As long as she wished for it, her father would try his best to hand it to her without a question. However, now, it was clear that her recent actions towards Xiao Rufeng and her companion distraught her father.
"Mr. Xiao, you don't need to be too riled up. It wasn't like this was the first time your youngest daughter offended me." Yan Xiuchen chuckled darkly, sending a cold shiver down Xiao Yunyao's spine.
"I wonder if I should thank her." He continued. "If it wasn't for your youngest daughter, I would have never known that you have such a lovely daughter like Rufeng, Mr. Xiao."
As he said this, he gave his girlfriend a heated look.
"So lovely that I'm willing to offer my own heart to her on a silver platter."
"CEO Yan, I don't understand…" Xiao Rufeng's father furrowed his brows in confusion.
Was the reason Yan Prime Holdings pulled out their products from the shelves of their shopping malls and boutiques because of his eldest daughter's disagreement with Xiao Yao? To think that the aloof business tycoon was enamored with his Feng'er…
The smile on Yan Xiuchen's face vanished and immediately, Xiao Rufeng's father sensed that the man was displeased with his other daughter, Xiao Yunyao. However, even if Yan Xiuchen was in a relationship with his eldest, he thought that it was below Yan Xiuchen's status to get involved with his daughters' conflict.
"Why don't we ask your youngest how she sent her own sister to my bed, then?"
