"Come in."
Clack!
Pei Shishi took a deep breath and opened the door to her father's study.
Even though the study room was filled with expensive furniture, it also revealed the lack of taste of its upstart owner.
"Dad…"
Seeing her father sipping tea idly behind his desk, she felt disgruntled.
"Hmm?" hummed Pei Zhenghui without looking at her.
"Mom was taken away by the police."
She took another deep breath and looked at her father with a heated gaze.
In that moment, she was really disappointed, but his reply only threw her in despair.
"So what?"
Probably due to the intensity of her gaze, the older man finally looked up at her.
"Huh? 'So what'? 'So what'?! Dad, how could you say something like that?! That's your wife, my mother, we're talking about!"
She broke down at her father's indifference and coldness.
