Zhou Baifei always felt that Zhou Baili was a person who would not fight or compete with others. As long as she wanted something, she would get it.

Moreover, she never liked the quarreling situation at home. Every time she went to Zhou Kaiping to complain, Zhou Baili never spoke up for herself.

Even if Zhou Kaiping really punished her, she would accept it directly.

She never let anyone know that she had never done those things.

In Zhou Baifei's opinion, Zhou Baili is someone who can be bullied by anyone.

Therefore, she often said bad things about Zhou Baili in front of Zhou Kaiping, just to make everyone think that Zhou Baili was a bad person.

However, she didn't expect that Zhou Baili would tell her father what she had done today in front of him.

"Daddy..." Zhou Baifei looked at Zhou Kaiping in panic. When he saw Zhou Kaiping's expression at this moment, Zhou Baifei swallowed subconsciously. He didn't know what to say for a long time, and just looked at her nervously.

"Did you really do that today?" Zhou Kaiping asked.

Zhou Baifei usually dared to act coquettishly in front of Zhou Kaiping, and Zhou Kaiping always fell for it. She thought that even if she really did this, Zhou Kaiping would not say anything to her.

When she did that today, she really didn't think that much about it.

How can she eat something she doesn't like?

Moreover, she wanted Shen Jinghuan to see her most perfect side, so she really didn't think too much about it.

However, she really didn't expect that Zhou Baili would actually tell these words directly to Zhou Kaiping.

"Dad, I... just want to do things better. I hope Third Young Master Shen can see my perfect side." Zhou Baifei quickly explained.

"idiot!"

When Zhou Baili walked to the archway and heard Zhou Kaiping's roar, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he was in a good mood.

As for Zhou Baifei, what does she have to do with him?

If Zhou Kaiping gave her a beating directly, Zhou Baili would feel better.

"Pear!"

As soon as Zhou Baili passed through the archway and saw her mother standing there waiting for her, she quickly stepped forward and said, "Mom, why did you come out? It's so cold outside."

Mrs. Wu felt a little relieved when she saw her daughter return. She said softly, "Your father didn't give you any trouble, did he?"

Zhou Baili didn't like to have servants, and the Zhou family's situation hadn't been good in recent years, so they saved as many servants as possible.

Although Mrs. Wu has someone around her, she is old and it is not easy for her to send someone out to look for Zhou Baili.

They didn't know where Zhou Baili had gone, let alone where to find her.

"He just wanted to fight for Zhou Baifei. My daughter told him what Zhou Baifei did today. He is scolding Zhou Baifei in the main hall right now. I'm fine!" Zhou Baili took her mother's hand and walked towards the backyard together. As for what happened before, Zhou Baili didn't take it to heart, nor was she sad about it.

It was not because of anything else, but because she had long been disappointed with her father, so Zhou Baili was not sad at all about what he said, let alone upset about it.

Let him say whatever he wants to say, just let him do it.

"Alas...your father can't tell right from wrong. It has made you suffer!" Mrs. Wu sighed, blaming herself for not seeing Zhou Kaiping's character clearly when she was young.

She thought he was someone worthy of entrusting her life to, but who could have imagined that Zhou Kaiping was such a wretch who never considered the feelings of the three of them. The only person Zhou Kaiping cared about was himself.

"Mom, don't say that. No matter what he does, I don't care anymore! I won't let myself be wronged." Zhou Baili whispered.

She knew clearly that her mother was upset and blamed herself for not finding a good husband, which was why she and her brother suffered.

"Then Third Master Shen wouldn't..."

"He won't." Zhou Baili said softly.

When Mrs. Wu heard her daughter's words, she looked up at her.

After Zhou Baili brought Mrs. Wu back to the house, he asked someone to guard the door, and then he whispered to Mrs. Wu.

"It was actually his decision to leave Zhou Baifei in the restaurant today. He doesn't like Zhou Baifei. You can rest assured about that." Zhou Baili said softly.

When Mrs. Wu heard her daughter's words, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mother has also understood the character of Third Young Master Shen. Their Shen family is a good one, and now they are relatives with the Marshal. Fourth Miss Shen is favored by the Marshal, and their family is... The world is in chaos nowadays, and who knows when the war will come to us. So mother wants to ask you, have you and Third Young Master Shen decided when to get married?" Mrs. Wu asked softly.

The Shen family has an army, and if a war really breaks out, they can protect their families.

Therefore, she hoped that her daughter could marry into the Shen family as soon as possible.

In this way, her daughter can also be happy and healthy. If something really happens in the future, she will not be able to protect her children.

She knew clearly her own limitations and that she could not protect her children. Even in the current situation, she could not protect them.

Therefore, she hoped that Zhou Baili could marry Shen Jinghuan earlier, so that their family would protect Zhou Baili.

She can also feel more at ease.

"Mom, although he and I have known each other for many years and are classmates, our two families still know very little about each other, so I still want to give him some more time." Zhou Baili said softly.

"Mom knows the situation in our family very well. I don't want him to have to worry about our family situation after I marry him, so I want to wait a little longer, at least not now!"

Mrs. Wu took her daughter's hand and patted it gently, "It's mother who is useless!"

"Why did you say that, mother? If it weren't for mother, how could my brother and I exist? And mother has always been very protective of my brother and me over the years. It's my father who's being a bad person, what does it have to do with mother?"

Mrs. Wu hugged her daughter, patted her, and said softly, "Li'er, no matter what you want to do next, I will support you! If divorcing your father can make your future smoother, I am willing to do it!"

Zhou Baili looked at her mother in disbelief.

"Before, mother always thought that divorce was a shameful thing for a woman, but after seeing what Fourth Miss Shen did, who would dare to say a bad word about her behind her back? Now she's married to the Young Marshal and has become his wife."

"Also, Mother has heard that Fourth Miss Shen's medical skills are quite remarkable. Her Shouchuntang is now famous in Jiangbei. She also likes to do charity. I heard that... arranging the refugees in the abandoned warehouse at the dock was also Fourth Miss Shen's idea!"

"Nowadays, how many people are grateful to Fourth Miss Shen? Look at how well she is living after her divorce. It's impossible for my mother to be like Fourth Miss Shen."

"But, I can let you and your elder brother live a more peaceful life, so that you won't be excluded by your father's sons and daughters. I owe you two too much!" The more Mrs. Wu thought about it, the more she felt that this matter was feasible.

"Mom, my dad won't agree, especially at this critical moment!"
