"F-father ....mother she .... it's fine , I'm wrong" she shivered .

"Why my daughter is so scared , what have you done until she became like this ? "he scolded his wife.

"Hey you liar , tell the truth !!" she went forward to Mei and raised her hand as if about to slap her but was stopped by her husband.

"What you want to do ? Trying to hit my daughter in front of me" he slapped her.

"What are you doing , I'm your wife !!"

"My daughter....wake up , she deserves to get it . Forgive your father for not taking good care of you" he feel guilty for his daughter .

"Guard ! Took this woman and her daughter to the room and did not let them out without my permission" he called to the guard who was next to the family hall entrance.

"Dear , you can't treat me like this .... I'm not wrong. Hey you st*pid girl !! I will kill you !" she tried to break free from the guard .

"Dear...." she was stunned by the slap.

"What if I divorce you then ? Would you will behave well ?"he grabbed her chin and look at her.

"I-I....will behave well so don't divorce me" she begged him.

"And I also do not allow you to go to the event"

"But dear , please allow Meng to go to the ceremony" she appealed to the Minister Gu again.

"Yes father, let me go there ... I will be ashamed if I can not go there" Meng appealed along with her mother.

"I said no than can not "

"Father, let sister go please"Mei appealed her father to let her sister go to the dinner ceremony, because she wanted to embarrass her sister at the ceremony. "It will not be happy if there is no show "she said in her heart.

"Lucky you ....your sister want you to go there"

"You better not embarrass the Gu's family" Minister Gu warned her.

"Y-yes ....father"

"Father , I want to go first if there nothing to do because I'm a bit tired" Mei asking permission to leave.

"Alright , take care of yourself,the ceremony is around the corner"

Mey stepped out of the family hall.

At outside,

"Mei congratulations for your success in one of the first mission" Lily suddenly appeared in front her and congratulated her.

"What ? "she fell because shock Lily appeared in front of her suddenly.

"Are you okay ?" she feels wrong .

"It's okay but don't appear like that again, it surprised me"

"You just said I succeeded in one of the first missions .... What is it ?" Mei asked Lily.

"Be the minister favourite daughter."

"But...."she felt strange.

"He sees you full of wounds and bruises causing him to feel guilty for not treating you well .... and you are the only child of his first wife" Lily explained to Mei .
