The abandoned daughter of a wealthy family turns out to be a lucky charm, changing the fate of her e

"Yes, yes! That's right." Shen Zhi nodded obediently. "Xingxing and Yangyang heard it too."

Guan Xing: "Absolutely true."

Liang Yang: "More real than pearls!"

Old Walsh's body trembled violently, and at that moment, he even had the thought of hammering his own daughter to death.

How dare she say such outrageous things!

"Miss Shen!" He bowed deeply, his voice trembling. "It was my daughter's ignorance, her arrogance! Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against her!"

As he spoke, he bent his knees and knelt down with a thud.

The sound of repeated kowtows echoed throughout the vast castle space.

He banged on the ground for an unknown amount of time until bloodstains appeared on a small patch of floor tile in front of him.

Li Miao raised his hand to signal:

"Mr. Walsh, what are you doing? You haven't done anything wrong, why are you kowtowing so many times? I thought you enjoyed kowtowing."

The implication is that whoever does wrong should be punished.

Old Walsh's sweat trickled down his forehead, down his cheeks, and into his collar.

He gritted his teeth, turned around, and delivered a crisp, resounding slap to He Yu's face.

That one slap drew blood from He Yu's lip.

"Apologize to Miss Shen now!" Old Walsh roared, his voice filled with an almost insane fear.

He was genuinely afraid.

The Li family could turn his company upside down with just a flick of their fingers.

If this escalates into a major conflict... it could cost him his life!

He Yu covered her face, her lips trembling.

She looked up and saw that Shen Zhi still had that indifferent expression, neither smug nor sarcastic.

He didn't even... look at her!

This indifference hurt her more than the slap in the face!

"I'm sorry," He Yu said softly, like a mosquito's hum.

Shen Zhi picked up the hot milk tea beside her, slurped up a big mouthful of taro paste, as if she hadn't heard.

"Speak louder!" Old Walsh slapped him again.

He Yu raised her voice slightly, her nails digging into her palms: "...I'm sorry."

"Louder!"

Shen Zhi didn't say anything, but old Walsh kept fanning her.

"I'm sorry!" He Yu almost shouted, her voice breaking with sobs.

Li Xin frowned as he looked at the floor they had dirtied.

"Alright, go kneel outside for 24 hours."

He Yu suddenly looked up.

In France, the snow is very thick in winter. Without heating, you'll freeze to death even if you don't die.

But without the Li family's forgiveness, old Walsh dared not say anything.

What does a daughter's leg matter compared to the prosperity of their family?

She only has herself to blame for being stupid; why did she have to be so foolish as to offend the Li family!

Local reporters filmed He Yu kneeling at the Li family's house to apologize.

It not only made the news, but also spread widely in everyone's WeChat Moments within the circle.

Overnight, everyone tacitly began to avoid He Yu.

No one dared to like He Yu's posts, no one dared to invite her to parties, and no one dared to stay for even a second longer in places where she was present.

Old Walsh aged ten years overnight.

He used every connection he could to try and salvage something, but every time the other party heard his voice, they would immediately hang up.

No one wants to be friends with the Li family's enemies.

No one dared to.

After all, Colin, who offended Shen Zhi back then, has already gone bankrupt.

But that's not the worst part.

Instead, one night he was walking at night when he was hit by a car without license plates.

The perpetrator fled the scene; there were no witnesses and no surveillance footage.

When Colin was taken to the hospital, his right leg was shattered beyond recognition, and the doctors immediately amputated it.

Colin had no choice but to accept his bad luck.

The Li family used the most ruthless methods to tell the other families in Country F that the Li family was still the overlord of this land.

They ignored it before because it didn't touch on anything they cared about.

But if anyone dares to wrong Shen Zhi or make her sad, the Li family will retaliate tenfold or a hundredfold.

He Yu's knees became frostbitten and necrotic due to prolonged exposure to cold.

In addition, she was kicked out of the winter camp some time ago, to the point that even the elite school refused to acknowledge her as a student of their school.

Overnight, He Yu's proud identity, status, and knowledge were all destroyed, and he fell to rock bottom.

How could she accept this?

She wanted to destroy Shen Zhi every single moment.

But He Yu believed that what she couldn't do, someone else could.

One night, He Yu found Ava's chat window.

He Yu remembered that the Kennedy family and the Li family were longtime rivals...

Ava initially didn't want to respond to He Yu's plea for help.

She was just one of her many devoted admirers; why should she get herself into trouble?

It wasn't until He Yu mentioned the name Shen Zhi that things changed.

[He Yu]: Back in the exam room, Teacher Shen greatly admired Shen Zhi and looked at her exam paper for a long time.

[He Yu]: She must have been skiing at the time, and Instructor Shen watched her skiing for a long time.

[He Yu]: Sister Ava, you and Instructor Shen have been childhood sweethearts, you're such a perfect match, I just can't stand seeing your relationship being interfered with by that kind of woman...

Ava's expression turned slightly somber.

Even after so much time has passed, she still remembers the look on Shen Linchuan's face when he held Shen Zhi at the ski resort.

So worried, so gentle.

Shen Linchuan always maintained a calm demeanor, showing little emotion even when faced with danger.

But he was clearly flustered that day.

If she hadn't stopped him in time, Shen Linchuan would have loved to get on the ambulance with her.

Ava would never allow the person she liked to fall in love with someone else; the feeling of this being out of her control made her very uneasy.

[Ava]: Your company is beyond saving, I can't help you.

A flash of resentment crossed He Yu's eyes. Ava was a despicable woman too!

Her father did so much for the Kennedy family back then, but when it really mattered, he just kicked them to the curb.

But as long as it makes Shen Zhi unhappy, He Yu is willing to do it.

[He Yu]: Sister Ava, you're overthinking it. I was just trying to be helpful and didn't have any other intentions.

Ava did not reply, but three days later, He Yu knew that she had succeeded.

Ava and Shen Zhi faced off at the ski resort and proposed a family-based competition, using land in Country F as a wager.

Whoever wins gets the land.

However, the requirement for participation is that both families must have male participants.

Joel, sent by the Kennedy family, won the World Ski Championship for three consecutive years.

This match made headlines, with many netizens speculating about who would win, and casinos even opened betting platforms.

Some media outlets speculate that only Li Wei at his peak could defeat him.

Unfortunately, everyone knows that Li Wei's leg was crippled in a car accident.

As a result, 90% of people bet on the Kennedy family to win.

Shen Zhi asked Li Xin to help her open a new account and put half of her savings into the Li family's account.

The little girl's eyes were practically money bags.

She rubbed her little hands together and giggled, "I'm going to be rich! I'm going to be rich!"
