Chapter 356 Hiding something
Chapter 356 Hiding something
After Wang Ping finished speaking, she did not miss the flash of panic in Zhao Yue's eyes.
The corners of her lips curled up, and her voice was meaningful: "It seems that Miss Zhao is also hiding something from me."
"I... I didn't..." Zhao Yue didn't dare to look at her, her voice was weak, and it was obvious that she had something to hide.
Wang Ping was too lazy to say anything more to her. Their cooperation had come to an end anyway, so it didn't matter whether he kept it from her or not.
"Then I'll be leaving first, Miss Zhao, goodbye."
She said, and strode out the door.
Zhao Yue panicked and stumbled after her: "Sister Ping, you can't leave. You can't let me deal with it alone. We are best partners..."
Her voice was pitiful and she cried miserably, but Wang Ping never looked back. She got into the car and drove away.
Zhao Yue ran after the car for two steps, but when she saw that she couldn't catch up, she had to stop and sat down on the ground with her legs going limp.
"Xiao Yun probably doesn't know. He hasn't paid attention to my work before, so he probably doesn't know about those things."
Zhao Yue muttered to herself, but the fear in her eyes grew more and more intense.
Just because Xiao Yun didn't pay attention to her didn't mean his men couldn't find out. If those things were really exposed, she would be completely finished.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yue quickly got up from the ground and ran to her father's bedroom.
The door was ajar, and when it was opened, there was no one inside.
Zhao Yue was stunned. Yes, if Dad was at home, he would not fail to show up when Wang Ping came.
She took out her cell phone and made a call, her face irritated: "Why are you going out so early in the morning? Can't you just stay at home? I'm so annoyed."
Just as she was complaining, there was a noise at the door.
Zhao Yue hurried over and saw that her father had returned.
Butler Zhao hunched his shoulders, his arms covering his stomach, his face pale and bloodless, his body as thin as a stick, as if a gust of wind could break it in half.
Zhao Yue didn't notice these abnormalities. She just flew over and grabbed Butler Zhao's arm.
Butler Zhao staggered for a moment, and it took him a long time to steady himself. His face was so pale that it was almost transparent.
"Dad, Xiao Yun attacked me. He attacked me for that bitch..."
Zhao Yue gritted her teeth, shed tears, and recounted the story in a choked voice.
"Wang Ping said he won't let this go. Xiao Yun wants to completely destroy me. Dad, how could he do this? How could he do this to me? Wuwuwu..."
"I grew up with him and I once blocked a knife for him. We used to have such a good relationship, and Shen Lan has only been with him for a few days. He must have been bewitched and bewitched by that slutty Shen Lan..."
Butler Zhao felt a dull pain in his head as he listened to her sharp and choked cries.
He had a seizure last night, experiencing severe abdominal pain that nearly killed him. He went to the hospital alone for simple pain relief, declining the doctor's recommendation for hospitalization. Fearing his daughter might worry, he rushed home, only to hear such devastating news upon arrival, his body trembling.
Butler Zhao held on to the door tightly to prevent himself from falling.
He trembled his lips and took small sips of air to ease the pain in his abdomen. The doctor said that in the late stages of liver cancer, the pain would become more and more severe, and it was possible to die from the pain.
He almost couldn't bear the pain last night. Butler Zhao couldn't imagine how miserable and painful he would be if his illness became more serious.
On the way back, he was thinking that he couldn't wait any longer and had to arrange his daughter's future as soon as possible.
But Butler Zhao never expected that the young master would go to such lengths for Shen Lan, ruining Yueyue's career and destroying her livelihood.
This move of cutting off the source of funds is really too cruel.
"Yueyue, don't be afraid. The more this happens, the more you need to stay calm." Butler Zhao spoke with difficulty, trying to maintain the same tone as usual. He spoke slowly, and pride could not be concealed in his eyes.
"Although the young master has temporarily interrupted your career, your painting skills are solid. As long as you can get through this difficult period, in the future..."
"Dad!" Zhao Yue suddenly interrupted him, her eyes filled with shame. She bit her lip and said with difficulty, "I'm sorry, I'm hiding something from you."
Butler Zhao was stunned when he heard his daughter's trembling voice.
"My level isn't that great. Wang Ping is right. It's all thanks to the Xiao family that I was promoted."
Zhao Yue couldn't help shaking as she spoke with difficulty, "When I was in school, my grades were only above average, not even the best among my classmates. Those who were better than me back then are now just unknown little artists, struggling to make ends meet."
"Well, so what? Have you forgotten the painting the old lady bought from you? She praised you personally, saying that your painting is very spiritual."
Butler Zhao awkwardly comforted his daughter, "The old lady has seen a lot of things. To be praised by her proves that you are quite capable. I'm sure she didn't praise you for my sake, but sincerely felt..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhao Yue interrupted him with tears in her eyes: "But that painting was not drawn by me at all!"
