Qi Tianxiang shuddered and dared not utter another sound.

Qi Yu and Qi Yue also lowered their heads, not daring to interrupt.

Old Master Qi continued bluntly, "Qi Tianxiang, you are the most useless of all my children. If it weren't for the fact that you married a capable wife and gave birth to such an outstanding son, you would probably still be a mediocre person. Otherwise, would you be qualified to live here?"

This is the Qi family's century-old manor.

Grandpa Qi only allows his approved children or grandchildren to live in the house, which indirectly represents his acknowledgment of their future heirs.

Therefore, Qi Tianxiang, Qi Yue, and Qi Yu were able to stay here entirely thanks to Qi Huan!

At this point, Old Master Qi glanced coldly at Qi Yu, "My grandson Qi Huan is the only heir of the Qi family that I currently recognize. To despise him is to despise the Qi family. As for how to deal with this adopted daughter Qi Yu, Qi Tianxiang, you should think it over carefully. Don't make me take action personally!"

Qi Yu looked at her father, Qi Tianxiang, in a panic, "Dad..."

In an attempt to quell the conflict, Qi Tianxiang gritted his teeth and hardened his heart to personally slap Qi Yu across the face.

"Snapped."

The slap was delivered with considerable force, making it particularly loud in the night.

Qi Yu's face immediately turned red.

Her eyes welled up with tears as she looked at her father with a wronged expression.

Qi Tianxiang couldn't bear to look at her like this, so he looked away and sternly ordered, "Xiaoyu, apologize to your older brother right now!"

Qi Yu covered her face and hesitated for a while before awkwardly stepping forward. She reluctantly spoke in a hoarse voice, "Big brother, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I didn't know the rules. Please forgive me this time, okay?"

As she spoke, she bent down to take Qi Huan's hand.

Qi Huan rolled his wheelchair backward to avoid her touch and laughed, "Little Yu'er, there's no need for that. I still prefer your unruly self. I hope you can continue like that after you leave the Qi family."

Qi Yu's body trembled slightly.

If she is kicked out of the Qi family, it means that she will no longer be the third young lady of the Qi family and will lose the protection of the Qi family.

If anything happens outside, no one will investigate!

If Qi Huan really wanted to deal with her, he would definitely take the opportunity to strike!

No, she can't be kicked out!

Qi Yu once again cast a pleading look at her father, Qi Tianxiang.

Qi Tianxiang clenched his fists and looked at his son Qi Huan, "Huan'er, you've spent three years with Xiaoyu, treating her like your own sister. Are you really willing to kick her out of the Qi family?"

Qi Huan still wore a calm smile. "Isn't it too late for Father to plead for me now? I gave Father a chance. If you had corrected and punished Qi Yu earlier when she made a mistake, so that she would know her mistake and correct it, why did it have to come to this? She was just an adopted daughter of our Qi family. Since she can no longer recognize her own identity, what's wrong with letting her leave?"

Seeing that Qi Huan had no intention of respecting him as a father, Qi Tianxiang clenched his fists even tighter.

Today's humiliation reminded him of the time when he also had to be mindful of Qi Huan's mother's feelings.

He had only been a little too enthusiastic towards a young woman in the company, but Qi Huan's mother reported it to her family. Her entire family came to their home to reprimand and warn him that if he dared to betray his wife, he would be punished severely.

And now, his son is the same.

His daughter Qi Yu only made a few sarcastic remarks, but Qi Huan took the matter to the old man's side and insisted on driving Qi Yu out of the Qi family!

This mother and son are exactly alike; they both love to despise and trample on his dignity!

Qi Huan continued, "Father is so reluctant to send Xiaoyu away, could it be... that Xiaoyu is really your biological daughter?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Tianxiang panicked and immediately glared at her to hide his emotions: "Qi Huan, what nonsense are you spouting!"

Seeing his intense reaction, Qi Huan's dark eyes turned cold, but he still smiled calmly, "It was just a joke, Father, don't be angry."

Old Master Qi gave Qi Yu a meaningful look, seemingly lost in thought.

Seeing Qi Huan's attitude, Qi Tianxiang knew that Qi Yu's expulsion from the Qi family was a foregone conclusion, and he could only accept this humiliation. He instructed Qi Yue, "Yue'er, you brought Xiao Yu back with you, so you can take your sister away now."

Qi Yue looked at Qi Huan and pleaded, "Brother, are you really going to be so heartless as to kick Xiao Yu out? Before I came back, Xiao Yu was always with me. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have been able to survive those dark and hopeless days outside."

"This punishment is already very lenient. How about we cut out her tongue? Then I can let her stay in the Qi family with you. What do you say?" Qi Huan joked again.

Qi Yu quickly covered her mouth.

In her view, these words were less of a joke and more of a hint from Qi Huan, suggesting that she might face such retaliation from him after leaving the Qi family.

Qi Yue remained silent for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Since you've made up your mind, I understand. But it's already very late. I'll send Xiaoyu away tomorrow..."

Qi Huan immediately rejected the idea, saying, "No, we need to kick her out right now. If she stays here, I won't be able to sleep well because I'm still angry."

Finally, he kindly offered a suggestion, "If you're really worried, why don't you leave with her tonight? Of course, I don't mind if you stay outside with Qi Yu and take good care of her."

Qi Yue: "..."

Qi Yue forced a smile, "Brother, you're joking. I'll have Xiaoyu leave right away so she won't bother you or disturb your rest."

After saying that, he turned to look at Qi Yu, and extended his hand to her, "Let's go."

With red eyes, Qi Yu held back her tears and let Qi Yue pull her away.

Qi Tianxiang's expression remained grim.

"Father, don't worry about whether your adopted daughter is doing well outside for now. You should worry about yourself first."

Hearing Qi Huan's words, Qi Tianxiang was incredulous. "Me? You mean you're going to punish me too?!"

Qi Huan smiled and said, "Father, you are too kind. No matter what, you are still my father. How could I punish you for such a small matter as not disciplining my adopted daughter? It's just that before, when Qi Yu was in the Qi family, she ate, dressed, and used the same things as Qi Yue. I never mistreated her. But now that she has been kicked out, she naturally cannot use a single penny of the Qi family's money. I was afraid that Father would be reluctant to part with it and would secretly use the family's money to help Qi Yu."

At this point, Qi Huan paused for a moment before continuing with a smile: "So from now on, I'll have to work hard and cut back on expenses. I'll cancel all the cards you're currently using and give you a basic allowance every month. After that, if you need any money, just ask me for it yourself and give me a good reason."

Hearing these words, Qi Tianxiang was furious!

"Qi Huan, you are insulting me!"
