After stopping being a simp, the school heartthrob cried and begged to get back together.

Chapter Twelve: Severing Father-Daughter Relationship

Who is Huo Yubai?

I blinked gently: "A big boy throwing a tantrum."

"A quarrel?" Huo Yubai's eyes were sharp.

“Yeah, right.” I laughed. “You’re just being stubborn right now, stubborn with yourself, not with anyone else.”

Huo Yubai snorted.

"Huo Yubai, the future is yours. You can't keep wasting time just because you're angry with yourself." I sincerely advised, "While you still have time, work hard and you'll definitely be able to get into university."

Actually, I said all this because I didn't want Huo Yubai to give up on himself.

He helped me today.

I don't know how much he'll listen to, but I still want to try to persuade him.

"Where do you want to apply?" Huo Yubai's eyes were icy. "To Tsinghua or Peking University, with Gu Heng?"

So he knew about me and Gu Heng too.

"I don't want to go to Tsinghua or Peking University." I looked at him with a half-smile: "I'll tell you when your exam results improve, okay?"

Huo Yubai scoffed: "Do you think I care where you take the exam?"

I chuckled: "Then you ask me?"

"I was just asking casually." Huo Yubai turned and left.

I shrugged helplessly.

Looking away, I felt a little worried. Why hadn't my mom arrived yet?

Didi!

Old Shen parked his car in front of me and honked the horn twice.

"Old Shen, it's you?" I looked at him.

"What are you standing there for? Get in the car," Old Shen urged.

"I promised my mom I wouldn't go with you." I refused.

Old Shen got anxious: "I'm your father, would I ever harm you?"

"And you're Liu Shengyan's father, aren't you?" I said sarcastically.

Old Shen said, "Actually, my relationship with Secretary Liu was just an accident."

"You've said that to my mom before, haven't you? Even she didn't believe it. Do you think I would?" I said sarcastically.

Old Shen stopped pretending: "Yan Yan, you are Dad's most beloved daughter. Liu Shengyan is just an illegitimate child, how can she compare to you?"

I crossed my arms and listened quietly, but I didn't believe it at all.

"Dad's company has been having some problems lately. Can you let Dad use the ten million I just deposited into your account?" Old Shen pleaded.

So that's what it was about.

No wonder he came to find me.

My mom kept telling me not to go with him.

"Old Shen, I can give you the money." My expression was icy. "But could you call a lawyer and have us sign a document severing all ties with your daughter?"

Old Shen was initially very happy, but after hearing what I said, he was stunned.

"I don't care how much money you have in the future. I just hope you won't bother me anymore, and that you won't take advantage of me anymore." I really don't want to see him again.

“Yan Yan, I know you’re angry with your dad, but actually I love you and your mom very much.” Old Shen continued to explain, “The main thing is that we’ve got the money and solved the company’s difficulties. Dad promises you, I’ll give you 20 million.”

“I don’t want a single cent.” I shook my head indifferently. “Old Shen, if you’ve made up your mind, come find me with your lawyer. If you haven’t, go back and think about it. Don’t bother me.”

Old Shen hesitated for a moment: "Alright, I'll bring a lawyer tomorrow, don't go back on your word."

I looked at him casually: "I don't regret it."

Old Shen drove away.

He didn't even get out of the car.

I sighed.

Why can't Lao Shen understand that my mother didn't ask for that ten million on my behalf at all, but rather she wanted me to see his true colors?

She wanted me to break off my relationship with Lao Shen as soon as possible.

I had a lot on my mind.

It seems that many things have changed since my rebirth.

For example, my parents' marriage, the origin of Gu Heng's dislike for me, and so on.

But what's done is done, and all I can do is look forward.

"Yan Yan?" My mother got off the train and stood in front of me.

I snapped out of my daze, looking a little embarrassed: "Mom, I..."

"I know everything." My mother sneered, "Old Shen just called me to brag that you still care about him."

"No," I quickly explained, "I only agreed to give him the money after I asked him to bring a lawyer tomorrow and sign a document severing parent-child ties with me!"

That old Shen, he actually did this kind of thing again!

“Actually, I know what kind of person he is.” My mother smiled sarcastically, “Looks like you understand what I mean.”

"Mom, you know Lao Shen so well, why didn't you divorce him sooner? Was it really for my sake?" I frowned deeply.

"Let's talk about it once we're in the car," I nodded.

After getting in the car.

My mother sneered, "I only really got to know him in the last six months. I never imagined that this is what everyone considers a good husband and a good father."

"Mom, what exactly is wrong with Lao Shen's company?" I really couldn't figure it out.

"It's just a cash flow problem. I don't know which link went wrong, which is why a large sum of money has been delayed." My mother knew very well: "Originally, he wanted to delay the divorce, but I threatened him that if he didn't sign the divorce papers now, I would tell everyone about his affair. His business partners would definitely lose trust in him."

It turned out to be the case.

It seems my mom is also planning to cut things off quickly.

"Mom, when Lao Shen's company recovers in the future, will you feel resentful?" I asked curiously.

My mother turned to look at me and smiled, "And you, are you willing to sever your father-daughter relationship with him?"

"I'm willing." I don't care how much money he has.

“Then what do I have to be upset about?” My mother smiled. “Besides, it’s not like I’m short of money. I can definitely support you.”

"Mom, didn't Lao Shen give me two more houses? We'll sell them later." I had already planned this.

Those two houses could sell for over ten million.

My mom said, "Anyway, it's all yours, so you can decide for yourself."

When I came to my senses, I found that my mom had parked the car in front of a building in a residential area near the school.

"Let's move to a different place," my mom said with a smile. "It's a little small, though..."

"Mom, I don't mind where I live with you." I didn't ask any deeper questions.

It must be Old Shen urging my daughter and me to move out.

If you're going to move out, then move out.

Does he really mean we can't live without him?

"We'll take care of the things in the villa in a couple of days. I just had the housekeeper move some of the things we need over." My mom is always very efficient.

Over the years, she left the company to stay at home and raise her children, but her inherent drive and determination have never changed.

We got into the elevator and quickly arrived at the seventh floor.

“It’s very close to your school, making it more convenient for you to go to and from school.” My mom opened the door.

This apartment is 100 square meters, with two bedrooms and a living room, and the living room connects to a large balcony.

I ran over and looked down from the balcony. Sure enough, I could see the school; it was really close.

It seems that when my mom was choosing a house, I was the first person she considered.
