Faced with Ling Tao’s sudden rage, Qu Wan and Ling Yuqing were stupefied, clearly unable to get used to such rage from Ling Tao.

Ling Yuqing held her hand over her face, hiding behind Qu Wan, afraid to speak a single word. It was Qu Wan that reacted first, her face pitiful, her eyes loaded with tears as she looked at Ling Tao. “Tao, what’s gotten into you?”

Ling Tao’s face was darkened as he glared at Qu Wan, “You still have the face to ask me what’s gotten into me? Go ask your daughter that!”

Finishing, Ling Tao stormed into the house, his anger like a stench that not even the best insulation could contain. Qu Wan and Ling Yuqing shared a look, neither of them expected Ling Tao to be that angry about it and hurried in with small steps.

Ling Tao sat on the sofa, the maids carefully pouring a glass of water for him, escaping as soon as she could. Even if she was blind could see that the man of the house was in a bad mood and no one wanted to be too close at that point in time.

Ling Tao picked up the glass, as he was about to down the liquid in it, the overflowing rage in him caused him to smash the glass onto the floor, the water and glass splattering everywhere.

Qu Wan and Ling Yuqing shrieked, stumbling backwards.

Qu Wan calmed herself down, sitting beside Ling Tao, her small delicate hands gentle as she leaned it onto Ling Tao’s shoulder, gently shaking. “Tao, it’s Yuqing’s fault this time, and she’s sorry too. Since I married into the Ling family, Yuqing has been following you and I, for so many years. You have watched her grow up. Even if you’re not her biological father, your relationship is closer than a blood-related one. Don’t you know what kind of person Yuqing is by now? She’s a kind and timid child, why would she have been bullied by Ling Tianya for all those years if not for that…? Let’s not talk about the past, after all, Yuqing did do something wrong this time.”

Qu Wan observed Ling Tao’s expression, before continuing, “Yuqing definitely has her reasons for doing something like this. She definitely must have been lied to by Guan Meiyi. You’ve seen it too, Yuqing and Meiyi are close, and Meiyi must have been traumatized. She wanted to seek revenge. Our Yuqing has such a soft heart, so she…”

Hearing that Qu Wan was still pushing the blame onto others by that point in time, Ling Tao couldn’t stand it anymore, and he pushed Qu Wan away harshly, his glare icy. “You’re still making excuses for her now?”

“I…” Qu Wan was shocked, Ling Tao had never gotten physical with her no matter how angry he was. To Qu Wan, Ling Tao’s shove was considered getting physical.

Qu Wan thought that after being with Ling Tao for years, she had a solid grasp of Ling Tao’s temperament. The man was extremely easy to convince and was especially weak to her style of convincing. The incident didn’t only involve Ling Yuqing, but also dragged Guan Meiyi into the picture. Qu Wan had thought of a solution from the start, that she would do her best to shove all of the responsibility onto Guan Meiyi. Ling Tao and Guan Jianlin’s relationships were strained right then anyway, and they were both suspicious of each other, her words would have become the truth then.

Qu Wan didn’t expect that after she had said so much, she didn’t dampen Ling Tao’s anger, but instead added fuel to the fire.

“Tao…Yuqing’s innocent…” Qu Wan was grasping at straws, her crocodile tears easily falling.

“Innocent?” Ling Tao pointed at Ling Yuqing, his entire self taut with rage, “Do you want me to drag Kang Yuchen here to confess everything before you’re willing to tell the truth?!”

“Kang Yuchen?”

The moment Kang Yuchen’s name was mentioned, Ling Yuqing’s face froze, and she panicked. So much time had passed, and nothing had happened to her that far. Suddenly Ling Yuqing had completely thrown out Kang Yuchen’s name, and the fact that she had asked him to ruin Ling Tianya came back from all the way in the back of her mind.

Ling Tao actually mentioned him! Chills undoubtedly started to travel up Ling Yuqing’s spine, freezing everything in its path.
