A strong sense of rebellion surged within Chi Mu Jiu.
"Since my father looks down on this billion-dollar contract, then no one should eat today!"
Her clear eyes burned with the flames of anger, as if she were about to ignite the oppressive atmosphere completely.
After saying this, Chi Mu Jiu stood up without hesitation. With a swift and decisive motion, she yanked the tablecloth off the solid wooden table with all her might.
In an instant, everyone's gaze was fixed on her actions. As the tablecloth was pulled, the dishes on the table clattered together, their exquisite presentation lost in a chaotic mix of delicious food.
The sound of crashing plates echoed throughout the restaurant. Those sitting nearby instinctively stood up to dodge the chaos.
"You!" Chi Feng's eyes widened in shock and anger.
"Chi Mu Jiu, have you lost your mind?!" Ji Yu Yan exclaimed, her voice filled with disbelief.
"Mu Jiu..." Su Si Yi called softly, concern evident in his eyes.
Shards of porcelain flew through the air like sharp blades as plates shattered. In the midst of the chaos, a fragment grazed Chi Mu Jiu's arm, instantly cutting a line across her skin.
Crimson blood slowly oozed out, creating a striking contrast against her fair skin, which somehow added an unusual beauty to her appearance.
Chi Mu Jiu felt little pain. Calmly, she wiped the fresh blood away with the tablecloth in her hand.
The servants in the living room were startled by the sudden noise and stood frozen, unsure of how to handle the chaotic scene before them. They feared that any action they took might provoke their master's displeasure, so they could only watch quietly, waiting for things to unfold further.
"Chi Mu Jiu! You are becoming more and more outrageous!"
What was once a tidy and elegant dining room was now littered with food and shattered plates scattered everywhere.
Chi Feng was furious, his eyes wide open and his face flushed red, with veins bulging on his forehead.
Su Siyu stood behind Chi Mu Jiu, watching the blood oozing from the wound on her arm, filled with concern. He wanted to help her clean the wound but hesitated to step forward, fearing that Chi Mu Jiu would refuse his assistance.
Ji Yuyan and Chi Qiyun had already hidden far away, afraid of getting splattered by the shards. They occasionally glanced at Chi Mu Jiu, thinking she was completely out of her mind for being so reckless in her own home.
What? Are you upset just because I broke a few plates?
Chi Mu Jiu was also losing her temper. Ignoring the blood still flowing from her wound, she paced back to the restaurant's wine cabinet.
Then came another round of shattering glass and porcelain. The fine wines and spirits in her hands shattered one after another, the crisp sounds echoing her protest against her father.
What fine wines and spirits? If you don’t give me a share, I’ll smash them all!
Even if I break them, I won’t let those two pests benefit from it!
Stop! Stop!
Chi Feng watched in agony as his treasured collection of wines was smashed by his daughter. His heart felt like it was being torn apart as he tried to intervene. But every step he took towards her resulted in another bottle of his cherished wine being destroyed.
You don’t even want to see me, but you look down on my man? You think I’m just going to hand over a fortune to you without a care? It seems you’ve gotten too comfortable living this easy life!
As Chi Mu Jiu cursed under her breath, she agilely climbed up the wine cabinet and grabbed a bottle of white liquor from the top shelf.
I can’t smash this one! This is a national treasure!
Chi Feng was panicking, breathing heavily as he turned red all over. He tried once more to stop Chi Mu Jiu but feared she would react even more violently.
Just as Chi Mu Jiu was about to raise her hand to smash that bottle too, an urgent voice came from outside the door.
Master! Master! Mr. Ye is here!
