Liu Qiang said sternly, "I am your father. I'm ordering you to go find her for me!"
Shen Lu laughed. "Who gave you the right to order me around? I've never taken a penny from you, nor have I eaten a single bite of your food. Ever hear the saying, 'The one who raises you is more of a parent than the one who gives birth to you'? If you want to boss someone around, go find Shen Lan."
"Shen Lu! This is utter defiance!"
"I'm capable of far worse, just so I don't get wrongly blamed for something out of the blue."
Liu Qiang was so furious he nearly had a heart attack. He let out a cold snort and limped away.
Shen Lu narrowed her eyes. 'Isn't his injury almost healed? And he's still lazing around in that sheet metal shack every day. Tomorrow, I'll drag him out of his room to dig trenches.'
She turned and asked Yang Jing, "What were the terms of your divorce?"
Yang Jing gave a bitter smile. "I left with nothing."
