A Beijing socialite stole my boyfriend; she went crazy after I got married.

Lin Yuwei collapsed onto the sofa, her ears ringing, half of her face numb and throbbing with pain, and her mind going blank in waves.

She wanted to say something, but she didn't have the strength to think or speak. It took her a while to recover and she looked up in shock.

"dad!"

Lin Yuwei was spoiled since childhood. Even if she made a mistake, she would only be scolded a few times and never be beaten!

What's more, it was such a heavy slap!

"Dad! What are you doing—"

The words came to an abrupt halt.

Because she noticed that her father's expression was very unpleasant.

Lin Chongping was busy working and making money on weekdays, so he didn't spend much time with them, but he was usually quite friendly and didn't speak harshly to the children.

At this moment, his face was gloomy, his eyes were full of anger, and he looked like he was about to kill someone.

Lin Yuwei opened her mouth, "Dad, why did you hit me?"

"Shut up."

Lin Chonghe said through gritted teeth.

"The Xie family gathering," he took two steps forward, "what did you do?"

Lin Yuwei shook her head, "I...I'm going with my classmates..."

"What did you do?"

Lin Chonghe repeated it, each word sounding like it was being squeezed out from between his teeth.

"I didn't do anything!" Lin Yuwei instinctively protested. "We just ate something, drank some wine, and discussed our studies. Although I jokingly said I wanted to call a male model, and Xie Qingyang didn't agree, I...I...I was really just kidding, I—"

"Did you and Miss Xie have a fight?"

"No!" Lin Yuwei quickly said, afraid of being beaten. "We were having a great time! Besides, Xie Qingyang was with Wei Jing afterwards. We were downstairs, and they were upstairs!"

Lin Chonghe frowned. "Wei Jing? A man?"

"Yes, I told you before, but you've forgotten!" Lin Yuwei said, feeling wronged. "It's the one who majors in math—"

"I don't care about math!"

Lin Chonghe didn't care about these Zhang San and Li Si at all; even if he had heard their names, he had long forgotten them.

"I'm only asking you what else you did that day! And! How did Wei Jing meet Xie Qingyang? Did you pimp him out?!"

Xie Jing's words were very clear in their implication: he was dissatisfied with Lin Yuwei.

So my stupid daughter must have done something wrong!

Or perhaps he was dissatisfied with Wei Jing and took his anger out on Xiao Wei?

If it was Xiaowei who introduced them, it's quite possible.

"No, no!"

Seeing her father's furious expression, Lin Yuwei broke out in a cold sweat, thinking he was about to interrogate her.

"I've always wanted to introduce her to my second and third brothers. I've always remembered what you said, Dad!"

She stammered nervously, "But, but, Xie Qingyang seems to only like those STEM geniuses, and I didn't introduce Wei Jing. They were in the same group because they had an elective course together, it really has nothing to do with me! Wei Jing had a girlfriend before, and he even brought her over that night! Although they are now..."

Lin Chonghe felt a headache coming on. "Xie Jing went that night, didn't he? Did you talk nonsense in front of him?"

Lin Yuwei shook her head frantically, "No, no, I didn't talk to him. My head was covered in juice, I just wanted to get out of there!"

"Your head is covered in fruit juice?!" Lin Chonghe was furious. "What happened to you?! What did you do?!"

Lin Yuwei opened her mouth, "I really didn't do it—"

Lin Chonghe slapped him again.

The force was greater than before, and the crisp sound made one's eardrums vibrate.

Lin Yuwei felt a sudden, sharp pain in her other cheekbone, and half of her head went numb. Blood instantly seeped from the corner of her mouth.

Lin Yuwei couldn't stop trembling. "I...I...I realized that Qingyang liked Weijing, so I pushed his girlfriend into the pool. That girl's family is poor and she doesn't have any background. I just wanted to give her a warning so she would back down and Qingyang would remember my kindness. Qingyang is very smart, he will definitely understand what I mean—"

Lin Chonghe grabbed her by the collar, "You pushed someone into the water on Xie family turf?"

Lin Yuwei gritted her teeth, "Dad! She's a whore! And she looks like she can swim, she couldn't possibly drown! Besides, she's a lowly commoner! So what if she dies?!"

"So what if someone dies?" Lin Chonghe roared. "Putting everything else aside, if you cause a death in the Xie family, no matter who dies, won't that bring bad luck to them?!"

No wonder Xie Jing was unhappy!

Humans are inherently fragile; even a slight choking can kill them. Moreover, in such a situation, a sudden cramp could be fatal.

After all, those people around her probably didn't care when they saw her convulsing in the water; they might even be laughing at her.

"And Xie Jing saw it!"

Lin Chonghe slammed her to the ground.

"I've never hit a woman in my life, but the first one I'll hit is my own daughter! I'll not be a man today, I'll beat you to death, you beast!"

Lin Chonghe roared and slapped him several more times.

Lin Yuwei had been pampered since childhood, and she was in so much pain that she rolled around on the sofa, her shrill screams almost lifting the ceiling off the living room.

"Dad! Stop hitting him! Ah—!"

Lin Chonghe's face was contorted with extreme anger as he kept thinking about Xie Jing's words.

"Do you even know how many top-tier medical and real estate resources Tianyu Group holds?!"

Lin Chonghe trembled all over. "I've been bowing and scraping outside, smiling like a grandson, pulling out countless strings and building countless bridges, just to get Xie Jing to say a word and let a few orders slip through the fingers of Tianyu Group to our Lin family!"

He got angrier and angrier as he spoke, and went up and slapped him again.

"As long as this contract can be signed, we—"

"Damn it, now everything is gone! I was risking my life to expand our territory, and you, a useless and incompetent fool, turned around and stirred up trouble right under Xie Jing's nose! And you keep saying 'So what if you die?' Did the Lin family become what it is today so you could become a murderer?!"

Admittedly, the woman was neither dead nor injured, but perhaps Xie Jing was already in a bad mood that night, and witnessing such a thing made him even more unhappy.

Although Xie Jing only said a few words, Lin Chonghe had already imagined many reasons, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense.

"A perfect collaboration, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, all ruined by you, you beast! Xie Jing's impression of our family is ruined! How am I supposed to hold my head high in Beijing's business circles after this?!"

The door to the master bedroom upstairs was suddenly pushed open.

Lin Chonghe's wife, Zhou Lihua, dressed in a luxurious long silk robe and slippers, rushed down the stairs in a panic.

Upon seeing Lin Yuwei's face covered in blood and her convulsing on the ground, Zhou Lihua screamed and immediately rushed over.

"Lin Chonghe! Are you out of your mind?! Why are you taking your anger out on your own daughter?! She's your own daughter, are you trying to beat her to death?!"

As Zhou Lihua wiped the blood off Lin Yuwei's face, she looked up and screamed at Lin Chonghe.

Lin Yuwei sobbed and said a few words.

"Old Lin, you're really confused!" Zhou Lihua looked at her husband. "You know what kind of person Xie Jing is. That guy is a cold-blooded monster, unpredictable and unpredictable! He's cold to our own daughter, let alone others! If he won't cooperate with our Lin family, then we won't cooperate either! Our family has many businesses and assets. Do you think we can't function without his Tianyu Group? Is it worth beating Xiaowei up like this for him?! Besides, that gold-digging woman's life is worthless—"

Snapped!

Lin Chonghe, enraged, laughed and went up to slap his wife in the same way.
