Realizing the guards wouldn't let them in, no matter what they said, Bai Yansheng clenched his jaw and turned away in seething anger.
"Father, wait for me!" Bai Li hurried after him.
Once inside the car, Bai Yansheng snapped, "Return home!"
The driver obeyed, waiting only until Bai Li climbed in before driving out of the private villa area.
Seated beside her father, Bai Li clutched his arm and asked unhappily, "Father, how could we just leave like this? Didn't you promise to introduce me to those wealthy madams and young ladies? We can't even get into the Hu Manor. How can I make friends with them?"
Too enraged to coax her, Bai Yansheng scolded, "Do you want to stay there and be humiliated?!"
Startled by his anger, Bai Li's complexion paled. Though her father doted on her, she knew better than to provoke him when he was in this mood.
Enduring her anger, Bai Li could only stare out the window, teeth clenched in humiliation.
