After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 83: Father and son are kind on the surface, but they are in a state of panic inside

Zhang Da had a gloomy face and glanced towards Liu Tian, who was busy running around not far away with a sad expression, as if he was really heartbroken by Cui's sudden death.

Liu Tian seemed to sense something, looked up and met the person's eyes, then quickly walked over.

Looking closer, Zhang Da discovered that Liu Tian's eyes were red, as if he had really cried.

He felt ashamed.

Obviously, they knew best why Cui died...

As a result, this kid, who was pretending, looked more overly sad than he really was.

"What happened to father?"

Liu Tian came over, bowed and asked respectfully and considerately.

Zhang Da's gloomy expression softened reluctantly, but his tone was still inevitably cold: "Where's your eldest brother? Why haven't you sent anyone to look for him? He should be the one to do the greetings and greetings, which is in accordance with the rules and etiquette."

Is this blaming him for overstepping his authority and stealing Zhang Shen's limelight?
Liu Tian twitched the corner of his mouth slightly.

There was a sneer and endless ridicule in my heart.

But he was still respectful on the surface, and his tone was humble: "I have already sent someone to look for big brother..."

Liu Tian paused for a moment and said, "When my father and mother were arguing."

When Zhang Da heard someone mention the quarrel between him and Cui, his face changed instantly, and he was about to warn him not to talk nonsense.

"I know that my words carry little weight, and I just returned home. I am not very close to my father and mother, so naturally I don't have any weight. So when my father and mother quarreled, I sent someone to find my eldest brother."

Liu Tian frowned slightly, as if puzzled: "I just don't know why, after a night, my brother still hasn't come back..."

His voice trembled slightly, and he whispered in a low voice, as if he was aggrieved: "Originally, I didn't want to barge in rashly and embarrass my father and mother."

What he meant was that if Zhang Shen had come back in time, he would not have gone in to mediate the fight.

If you don't go in, you naturally won't see Zhang Da when he thinks he is embarrassed.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Da couldn't help but transfer his resentment to Zhang Shen.

He cursed in frustration: "You are a person who can never achieve anything but always causes trouble!"

Liu Tian hurriedly bowed and apologized: "I know I was wrong."

Zhang Da glanced at him and was still mostly displeased, but not as disgusted as before.

"I didn't tell you."

Thinking of what the man had just said, "I'm not close to my parents," he seemed to be very hurt and timid. His voice softened a little, as if he had a fatherly heart and wanted to make up for it by giving him care and love. "This is your home. You don't have to be so restrained."

"Thanks to you running around today, I can rest a little."

He reached out and patted the man on the shoulder: "Your elder brother has been spoiled and has become more and more ignorant of the seriousness of the situation. He is much worse than you."

"From now on, this family will still depend on you to support it."

"You should encourage him!"

Is this a hint that he can fight for the position of future head of the Zhang family?

Ah!
Liu Tian sneered in his heart and looked down upon Zhang Da's clumsy tricks.

It really is as the adults said, there is no good person in the Zhang family! The father-son relationship is not as good as money and interests.

He is naturally not a good person among them.

No wonder the adults look down on him.

You are what you sow. With a father as despicable and selfish as Zhang Da, how can he have any pure and kind nature?

Just another stinking rat in the shadows.

Liu Tian thought with self-loathing in his heart.

His face remained calm and composed: "Son, you should work hard."

He paused, as if he couldn't bear it, and hesitated to defend Zhang Shen a few words: "Brother might have just been temporarily tripped up by something, so he couldn't return home in time. I think... it wasn't intentional."

At this moment, Zhang Shen probably doesn't know that his mother is dead.

In Liu Tian's heart, there was an added sense of pleasure from revenge!

"What can he do? He just idles around all day, hanging out with those rich and powerful people, and has no ambition to make progress!"

When mentioning the eldest son who was of no use and almost made the second son gain the old man's favor, Zhang Da became very upset and annoyed.

Naturally, Liu Tian could not join in criticizing Zhang Shen. He just lowered his head humbly, stood respectfully, and did not respond.

But I feel differently.

Zhang Shen, of course, was tripped up and couldn't come back.

It’s just that I was tripped by...
