Chapter 369: Do Your Best
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhen Zhu didn’t believe it was an accident.
Because of this, she had another big fight with Zhen Yiping, and the already estranged father-daughter relationship was broken apart even more.
In the few years Zhen Zhu had been abroad, she had looked for many people and tried many methods, but every time, it had been to no avail. Just as Zhen Yiping had said, she wouldn’t be able to find anything.
After returning from her studies abroad, she wanted to enter the entertainment industry, but was stopped by Zhen Yiping, and had no choice but to enter the Zhen Group.
She had given up and wasn’t in the mood to work. In her spare time, she would go to the bar with her friends to drink and sing. Although Zhen Yiping, her father, had always been a thorn in her heart, Zhen Zhu had still treated him as her father.
That was until Zhen Yiping’s birthday banquet.
Compared to those well-dressed, dignified and elegant girls, she had heavy makeup on and was wearing a V-neck, open-back, knee-length dress, which was considered very out of line.
Halfway through the birthday banquet, when she went to the bathroom to touch up her makeup, she accidentally overheard a middle-aged woman in the Li family gossiping about her mother and even her mother’s ‘lover’.
“Zhen Zhu really looks like her dead mother.”
The woman clicked her tongue. “She’s cold to everyone and doesn’t like anyone. However, even her mother was not as bold as her to dress like that. But then again, whatever her mother wore, it never affected her ability to seduce men.” Another woman lowered her voice and asked nosily, “Did that man kill himself after her mother died?”
“What’s there for him to suicide for? That man died a few days earlier than her mother.”
The woman gloated, “They said he died from a drug overdose. Who knows? What good could he get from abducting the Zhen family’s daughter-in-law? Alas, He died right before she did. I think it’s karma. She wanted to be Mrs. Zhen and enjoy as much glory as she wanted. In the end, she couldn’t take it anymore and had to hook up with that man at the banquet…”
Before the woman could finish her sentence, a phone flew and hit her in the face. She screamed and was about to scold the person, but when she saw who had thrown the phone, she didn’t dare to say a word and quickly ran away. However, Zhen Zhu wouldn’t let her go. She chased after her and smashed the woman’s head and face with a vase.
No one knew why she did this, but they saw her madly beating those two women up.
Zhen Yiping was furious and slapped Zhen Zhu twice again.
A few years ago, because of Li Zhongjin’s incident, Zhen Zhu was slapped by Zhen Yiping for the first time.
But this time, she didn’t shed a single tear. She only stared at Zhen Yiping coldly and asked him word by word, “How did my mother die?”
Zhen Yiping was furious and did not bother to answer her. He pointed at her and said that she was beyond redemption and was not worthy of being his daughter.
She smiled. “Then so be it. I’ve never wanted to be your daughter, and I never wanted a father like you.”
That day, she moved out of the Zhen family and lived a carefree life.
She usually worked as a resident singer in a bar, and when she had free time, she would go to other places to relax.
Zhen Yiping tried to interfere with her at first, but it only led to her more intense resistance. In the end, he simply gave up.
She had also tried to find out the truth of her mother’s death, but what ability did she have?
Her heart was filled with unwillingness, but it was also more painful to keep trying. She simply gave up on herself. In the past two years, her lifestyle had been circling around in the same but vicious circle.
Just as she was getting more and more desperate, Shen Hanyu appeared, and the thought that she had long given up on reappeared.
“I would like you to secretly investigate my mother and… The true cause behind her and her lover’s death.”
Zhen Zhu looked at Shen Hanyu with a serious and sincere expression. “As long as you can help me with this, I’ll do anything you want, let alone return to the Zhen family.”

“It’s been more than ten years, I can only do my best.”
Shen Hanyu said in a deep voice, “But you have to think about whether you can accept the truth in the end. Even if I find out, what can you do? You’ll just be looking for trouble.”
Zhen Zhu’s words implied that she suspected that her mother’s death was related to Zhen Yiping’s revenge.
Although Shen Hanyu didn’t want to believe that Zhen Yiping was such a person, it was hard to judge a person’s actions in a moment of anger and impulse after being betrayed by their lover.
If Zhen Zhu’s guess was true, Zhen Yiping was her biological father, after all. What could she do?
She couldn’t kill his own father for her mother.
Zhen Zhu did not speak.
After a long time, she took a deep breath. “Indeed, I can’t do anything to him. However, if I can’t solve this knot in my heart, then I will never have peace in my life. However, if you’ve found the worst case scenario,”
She said firmly, “Then Zhen Yiping has to quit completely. If I’m around, then he can’t be around.”
Didn’t they value Zhen Group the most? Didn’t Shen Hanyu do all this to persuade her into going back and becoming the successor?
In that case, she would do as Zhen Yiping wished and return to the Zhen family. However, this Zhen family would belong to her in the future. It would no longer have anything to do with him.
Shen Hanyu frowned. “I asked you to go back, not to mess around. If you dare to harm the Zhen family, I won’t stand by and do nothing.”
“How could I? Not only will I not harm that family, I’ll even work hard to keep it glorious forever.”
She smiled. “Actually, I’ve been thinking about it for the past few days. Was it wrong for me to drown myself in self-indulgence for the past two years? If I had enough capital, you wouldn’t have been able to so easily imprison my freedom. Of course, this is also an unexpected gain. I’m more than happy that you’re willing to help me. However,”
“If Zhen Yiping has nothing to do with my mother’s death, then so be it. But if he does, then I don’t want anyone to control my life. I want to make my own decisions for every step I take.”
If a person didn’t have enough status and reliance, not to mention doing what they wanted to do, even self-protection would be a problem.
Just like her mother back then, she thought that once she got a divorce, she would be free from her cage and be able to live with the person she loved.
In the end, both of them lost their lives because of this. She should remember this lesson.
If she misunderstood Zhen Yiping, then she would be a good daughter in the future and do what she should do.
If she didn’t, then deepest apologies, but the Zhen family could only have one master in the future, and it could only be her.
“If your father knows that you can think this way, he will be very pleased. As for asking your father to leave the Zhen family,” Shen Hanyu said calmly. “When you can take charge of a business, I’m sure your father will be happy to let you have it.”
Zhen Zhu snorted. “You think too highly of him. The Zhen family is his life, would he back out so easily?”
Shen Hanyu didn’t want to waste his breath on this. Her misunderstanding ran too deep, and there was no point in saying anything more.
Moreover, the truth was still unknown, and it was still too early to say anything.
It was already late at night when the group walked out of the palace.
Shen Hanyu was about to get into the car when Zhen Zhu suddenly ran over. “Cousin, there’s something I forgot to tell you..”
