I Just Want to Freeload on Your Luck

Chapter 37

Zhao Mo was so angered that he was amused. "You’re all ganging up on me just because of a little girl? You’re all trying to teach me a lesson, right? How would I know that on that day—”

Before he could finish speaking, Mr. Zhao, who just came in, gave him a heavy smack on the head. "I have already told you! Change the way you speak! Can't you say the word 'little sister'? Did you have to call her a ‘little girl’? This situation happened because of you! If you still want to stay at home, go to the study and write down the word 'little sister' 100 times for me right now!"

Mr. Zhao's face was ashen.

He always had the image of a strict father and the whole family feared him.

Zhao Mo could feel the anger crawling into his heart, but he chose to take the brunt of it all. He turned around and went to the study to write down some Mandarin words.

The conversation between Zhao Zhanhuai and Madam Zhao was mainly to analyze the reasons why things have become like this.

The two recalled some past events. The more they recalled, the more they remembered more details about how they had neglected Zhao Mingxi because of Zhao Yuan. Madam Zhao’s face was pale and she started crying again.

Zhao Zhanhuai had a headache and reminded Madam Zhao, "You should mainly start from these details in the future and pay attention to Mingxi's feelings." After that, he hurriedly left.

In addition, Mr. Zhao also held a meeting for the family's drivers and other employees, emphasizing that Zhao Mingxi is their biological daughter and that she must not be neglected in the future.

If things like what happened with Nanny Zhang happens again, they will be immediately fired.

...

Zhao Yuan was naturally excluded from the private conversations of the Zhao family.

It wasn't that they were deliberately hiding it from her, but it was their own family matter. She didn't need to be mixed up in this. If she were to appear in front of Mingxi, it would only trigger Mingxi even more. So it was better for her not to show up.

What's more, the Zhao family also considered her feelings.

But Zhao Yuan only felt that her family was acting weird recently. They often went to the study two by two, as if they were deliberately avoiding her in order to do some sort of illegal transaction.

Aside from them, their servants were acting oddly too.

The gardener began to buy the seeds of flowers that Zhao Mingxi liked and the chef began to study the dishes Zhao Mingxi liked to eat. When the driver brought her something, he would also find other students to inquire about Zhao Mingxi from time to time.

She also saw Zhao Yuning, who would get too hungry to sleep in the middle of the night, get up and go to the kitchen to study how Zhao Mingxi used to cook. He wanted to try making a lunch box so that he could take it to school to Zhao Mingxi—

Of course Zhao Yuan knew that this was their form of compensation for the loss of their family member.

Because he had eaten too many lunch boxes made by Zhao Mingxi, yet he never knew how to be grateful. Now that he has lost it, he feels empty and wants to make up for it.

But when she saw all this, it only made her extremely anxious and irritable.

Although Zhao Mingxi had left this home, she was still everywhere in this house.

Even her presence was stronger than when she first came two years ago.

Zhao Yuan was both scared and jealous.
