Chapter 217: Picking faults
“No! I just—” Daddy Xue began but before he could finish speaking, Xue Shen glared at him. She raised her hand and hurled the injections at her daddy’s face before saying harshly, “I and You’er are trying our best to make sure that you will not have to live the same kind of life as you are living at the moment.”

“But it seems like you are so used to opening your legs for women that you have started to enjoy the feeling of serving them. Why did you have to do such a thing? Did I ask you to serve her? Do you enjoy hearing that woman, Chen Zian, call us names?”

“Why can’t you live your life with a bit of dignity? And even if you can’t then at least let us have some!”

Xue Shen at that moment hated her daddy so much that she wished she could stray clear of him. She did not want to be associated with him in any way.

Daddy Xue lowered his head and sucked in a breath when he realised what had happened. He truly never wanted his daughters to be humiliated. But he had seen more of this life and knew that his daughters were suffering because of him.

Thus, he had begged Chen Zian who ruled this territory and the dark guild to give his daughters a chance to live a proper life. Of course, that woman would not let him have anything without taking something in exchange.

This was why Daddy Xue had to serve her in bed. Never did he think that Chen Zian would use that one night as leverage over his daughters and humiliate them.

“Shen’er listen to me,” Daddy Xue spoke as he raised his hands to hold Xue Shen’s but the latter wrenched her hands away from his and said to Daddy Xue angrily, “I don’t want to hear anything. Since you like to serve women so much then you can go ahead and serve them. Continue serving them till the day you die!”

Once she was finished speaking, she turned on her feet and then walked away without letting Daddy Xue say another word. She also pulled Xue You with her who wanted to say something to her father but couldn’t as her sister was pulling her away from him.

The old mer looked at her daughters leave and lowered his hands dejectedly. He knew that he was an embarrassment to her daughters but what was he supposed to do? His wife sold him to this place because she could not pay the debts.

That woman had promised that once she got the money to bring him away, she would come and take him away.

However,

Daddy Xue raised his head and looked at the flashy board that was displayed in front of him. Madam Liao was smilingly hugging a mer who seemed to hail from a prominent family.

His wife had risen to greater heights and had completely forgotten that her new position had used the life and freedom of a mer who had once loved her enough to use his own life in exchange for her.

Maybe she did not even remember that there was a mer who was waiting for her to return.

And given that she was in the arms of someone like that —Daddy Xue was not even surprised.

“My daughters could have lived like princesses if only you had turned back and looked at us,” Daddy Xue looked at the woman on the board before crouching down and picking up the syringes on the ground.

Even though his daughters were ashamed of his work, there was nothing that he could do, because if he did not keep Chen Zian happy then she certainly would not let his daughters have an easy time.

“Sister, don’t you think that you were a bit harsh on Daddy?” Xue You said to Xue Shen as the two sisters crossed the narrow streets of their slums and came to a stop in front of Main Street.

Xue Shen was clutching a stitch on the side of her waist and glared at her sister before saying, “What do you know? I don’t want to be harsh on him either but he is getting more and more lawless. How many times have I told him to stand up against Chen Zian?”

“I mean —I am grown up now, I can protect him.”

Xue Shen did not like the idea of her daddy suffering, this was why she was willing to lower her head in front of Chen Zian. However, despite her attempts, her father still lowered his head in front of that woman.

Why was she receiving all this beating? Wasn’t it because she wanted him to live a better life?

Xue You knew that her sister was a woman with a strong sense of pride but she still could not help but say to her, “I know that you are angry but —you should at least think of our father. He is not doing this because he likes it —but because he has no choice.”

“Don’t get started now!” Xue Shen glared at her sister feeling a surge of anger in her heart which caused her to lash heavily against her, “I am only doing this for his own good! As long as he is embarrassed enough, he will not do this kind of job again.”

Xue You stared at Xue Shen before shaking her head, she knew that her elder sister had all kinds of thoughts in her head, if only she knew. Life was not as easy as she thought it was.

On the other side, Luo Huian was still sulking as she lay on her front on the bed. She couldn’t believe it! She had tried all kinds of tricks and tips to get rid of Wei Yucheng but the mer was as stubborn as a bad case of acne.

No matter how hard she tried, that mer just did not budge.

Just like the dark marks after popping a pimple.

In fact, he was even more stubborn than that!

Speak of the devil—

There was another knock on the door, followed by Wei Yucheng’s diligent voice, “Miss Huian? Are you in there? I have brought the dumplings that you wanted.”

Luo Huian turned her head to one side and looked at the clock on the wall. The shop which she had sent Wei Yucheng to was on the other side of the city and it was a really famous shop. And yet the mer had returned in just half an hour.

She threw her head back on the pillow and started beating her pillow with her hands.

If she was not wrong, just getting to the entrance door of the shop took three hours— how in the world did this mer return in just half an hour?

‘Maybe he just went to a local shop and brought just any dumplings?’ Luo Huian thought as she jerked up and looked at the door, with her eyes narrowed. If that was the case then she had the right excuse to fire this mer.

Dereliction of duty on the very first day of work should be enough to kick him out of her life.

With that thought in her head, Luo Huian felt rejuvenated. She slipped down the bed and walked over to the door after crossing the room.

She pulled the door open and glared at the mer before asking sullenly, “Where is the takeout?”

“Right on the dining table,” said Wei Yucheng as he bowed his head and stepped aside. He let Luo Huian walk past him as the two of them came to a stop in front of the dining table.

She looked at the multiple boxes with the logo of the very shop where she had sent Wei Yucheng and Luo Huian turned to look at the mer. She asked, “How come you got so many boxes and that too in just a short amount of time?”

Wei Yucheng looked at her knowingly before saying in a light-hearted voice, “It’s nothing. I once helped the owner of that shop, when she was still working on the idea of opening it. So you can say that I am the VVIP of that shop, as long as I call and tell her that I need some dumplings — the owner will personally deliver them for me.”

Luo Huian: “…” Tsk!

She glared at the mer and asked angrily, “Why did you not tell me this earlier?”

“Does it matter?” Wei Yucheng innocently asked even though he knew very well how it mattered and how it did not.

Of course, it did! If she had known that this mer was acquainted with the owner of that shop, she would have sent him somewhere else!

In the end, Luo Huian picked up another fault.

“Why did you bring so many boxes? Do you take me as a glutton?” She asked with a tip of her head.
