That night, Su Hongxing didn’t get a wink of sleep.
She had a nightmare the whole night. The final scene, where Ye Qilan opened his bloody mouth and swallowed her whole, was a terrifying image…
Waking up in cold sweat, she turned her head towards the window and saw the brilliant sunlight, it was quite a nice day.
As pleasant as the warm sunlight was, it did nothing to heat her icy heart.
Not wanting to dwell in her thoughts, she went out to buy some change of clothes and a few other essentials. No sooner had she hung the clothes to dry, she received a phone call from Xiao Ji. Xiao Ji told her that Mrs. Jiang had found the Xiao Family’s residence, and was now refusing to leave, insisting on meeting her.
“I’m on my way,” Su Hongxing ended the call, and raced to the Xiao Family’s residence at top speed.
She should’ve never let Mrs. Jiang know where the Xiao Family lived. Doing so was the only reason they were in such an awkward situation now.
Before she even went in, she heard Mrs. Jiang’s loud voice from a distance, ” Where did you hide our Hongxing? Hand her over at once. Xiao Ji abandoned her, but that doesn’t excuse you, Xiao Family. If you don’t want to hand over Hongxing, fine, but give me 500,000 and I will leave immediately…”
Hearing her words clearly, Su Hongxing tasted bitterness in her throat. So, her worth was 500,000 and not 50. Should she feel lucky to be worth that much?
Collecting herself, Su Hongxing entered, not surprised to see Xiao Ji was also present.
Mrs. Jiang was throwing a tantrum, sitting on the ground and sobbing, her hair disheveled. She looked every bit the lunatic.
Jiang Su was there too, his face wore a look as though he was enjoying the spectacle.
Su Hongxing’s sudden appearance drew everyone’s gaze.
She sauntered up to Mrs. Jiang and spoke, her voice dripping with sarcasm, “I didn’t know I was worth 500,000! However, why would Mrs. Xiao give you 500,000? Over the years, Xiao Family provided for my livelihood, raised me, has anyone from Jiang Family ever spent a penny on me? Your daughter who is abroad, besides having a little blood relationship with me, what has she done for me?”
Sometimes she didn’t understand how some people could be so presumptuous.
Caught off guard and unsure how to respond, Mrs. Jiang finally managed to choke out, “Without your mother, you wouldn’t even exist…”
“I would rather not have parents like them. I’m not thankful to them for bringing me into this world. My biggest regret is pampering you and Jiang Su. I shouldn’t have fed your sense of entitlement. Leave with Jiang Su and never return. Xiao Family isn’t a charity, we don’t owe you anything. You are healthy, you can work to provide for yourselves.”
Same goes for herself. She, Su Hongxing, can provide for herself.
“If you don’t give me money today, I won’t leave!” Mrs. Jiang decided to carry on with her tantrum.
She won’t leave today until she gets the money!
Su Hongxing anticipated Mrs. Jiang wouldn’t be reasonable. This was a shameless old woman.
With that, she dialed 110, “I want to report a trespassing. The address is…”
Before she could finish, Jiang Su snatched her phone away.
Jiang Su glared at her fiercely, “Sis, grandma and I are your only family, how can you be so cold?”
“Because I’m the daughter of Zhou Peng and Jiang Chengyun, right? With such cold-hearted parents, how could I be kindhearted?!” Breaking free, Su Hongxing snatched back her phone to call the police again.
