Zhao Mengmeng held her face silent, for she dared not contradict her own parents. Wasn't everything eventually settled without incident?
However, if she said this out loud, her father would probably be so angry he'd spit blood, so it was wiser for her to keep silent.
"I'm sorry, Dad. I know I was wrong. I have been reflecting deeply during this time," Zhao Mengmeng seized the moment to apologize at the first opportunity.
She didn't want to keep silent and make her parents even more angry, to the point of not forgiving her.
"Reflecting? I doubt it," Zhao Gao knew his daughter was the most slippery.
Furthermore, by the look in her eyes, it was clear she was resentful—how could he not understand what she was thinking at this moment?
"Dad, don't misunderstand. I really have been reflecting. I didn't say anything because I was afraid of you and Mom getting angry..."
But in reality, they were even more furious. This was a classic case of asking for trouble.
