Chapter 931
Later, the original owner was taken by the Chu family. It was mainly because her expectations of her parents were too high, and she truly hadn’t experienced being framed or isolated by the whole class, that was why she felt so heartbroken and helpless.
In reality, many things would turn out differently given enough time. For example, if the original owner hadn’t drowned, after grieving enough, she would have surely become strong and forged her own path. And with time, Mr. and Mrs. Chu would have realized their misunderstanding of the original owner and discovered Chu Xuan’s ill intentions.
Chu Xiang had only been in this world for less than a month, but she had already done so much, all because she didn’t want to give them time. The original owner was no longer here, and she wouldn’t forgive anyone on her behalf. The conflicts that accumulate and explode in a short period are the most difficult to resolve. Now the Chu family and the Chen family were in chaos, while she successfully broke free.
She was in such a hurry to make money and return it to the Chu family, all to avoid having a guardian and be independent. Although the legal age of adulthood is 18, the law also states that as long as someone is 16 years old and has a source of income, they can be emancipated without a guardian.
She has completely severed ties with them now. As for settling scores, that can wait until later, so as to avoid entangling herself in any unnecessary matters. It’s annoying to listen to them blabber on and on about everything.
Regarding the Chen family’s bankruptcy, it was known among their social circle, and then everyone found out. During gatherings, people inquired about it and discovered that the Chu family was suppressing the Chen family. There seemed to be other forces involved, but they didn’t understand much about business matters and couldn’t see through the intricacies, so they naturally couldn’t guess who was behind it.
The Shao family was a top-notch family in Beijing, and with the methods employed by Mr. Shao, no one except the top families could detect their involvement. The Shao family’s legal team assigned a lawyer to Chu Xiang, and they only mentioned that she hired a lawyer, without mentioning the Shao family. Chu Xiang didn’t want people to know about her powerful backing for the time being. Otherwise, Mr. Chu would have recognized her abilities and would have regretted losing a good daughter.
Chu Xiang sued both Mr. and Mrs. Chen. It would take some time from the investigation to the court trial, so they were still free for now. But they were both anxious. The five million compensation from the Chu family had been spent, and they still owed ten million in external debt. They were being pressured by debt collectors, and they had been beaten up twice by people sent by them. They were eager to quickly get the money to repay their debts.
Furthermore, they were sued by Chu Xiang, and they couldn’t afford a lawyer. They were also afraid of going to jail. With these two things combined, they naturally clung onto Chu Xuan and refused to leave after finding her place of residence.
Chu Xuan was furious and called the security guards and the police, but they couldn’t do anything because they were a family of three, blood relatives. Her parents didn’t do anything wrong, they just wanted to live with her, so the police couldn’t intervene!
Although the small two-bedroom apartment that Mr. Chu gave to Chu Xuan wasn’t big, it had a good location and good decoration. The best time of Mr. and Mrs. Chen’s lives was when they were young. The houses back then couldn’t compare to the comfort now. Once they entered the apartment, they refused to leave, insisting that Chu Xuan had an obligation to support them.
Even if Chu Xuan mentioned the five million severance fee, the law didn’t recognize any severance of kinship. She would always be their daughter, and no matter where she went, that bond couldn’t be severed. Moreover, the Chu family’s suppression of them was no secret. The Chu family made the first move, and now that their company had gone bankrupt, they wanted to lay the blame on the Chu family. Since the Chu family had squandered their five million, the initial agreement to sever ties naturally became null and void.
Chu Xuan went to seek help from Mrs. Chu, and Mrs. Chu actually accompanied her to her home. However, when she saw the Chen couple acting like the hosts in the house that the Chu family had provided, she felt a strong sense of disgust. It reminded her once again of what Chu Xiang had said about the Chu family changing their surname to Chen. She felt that any benefits given to Chu Xuan would ultimately fall into the hands of the Chen family. At that moment, she turned and left, refusing to see Chu Xuan again.
Although Chu Xiang was not in contact with them now, the “seeds” she had planted before were constantly absorbing nutrients, growing stronger, and deepening the conflicts and worsening the mood among these people. There was not a single happy day among them.
Chu Xuan tried to reach out to Wang Shasha, some close girlfriends, and the lackeys who used to surround her, but not a single person paid attention to her. Everything seemed like a replay of her past life, when she was struggling in the entertainment industry, she didn’t have a single true friend by her side.
Her personality has long been like this. Even if she was reborn, deep down she was still the same. How could she expect others’ sincerity?
Because Chu Xuan always sought help from Mrs. Chu, she had encountered Mr. Chu a few times outside the Chu residence, begging desperately. Mr. Chu found her annoying. After understanding the situation, he directly transferred Chu Xuan’s household registration from the Chu family to the Chen family and changed her name to Chen Xuan.
Mr. Chu was Chu Xuan’s guardian, and Mr. Chen was her biological father. Chu Xuan couldn’t do anything about the name change and the transfer of household registration. The name that hadn’t changed in two lifetimes was suddenly altered, and she became Chen Xuan!
After the dust settled on this matter, she finally found out. It was like a bolt from the blue for her. After being reborn, her whole purpose was to destroy Chu Xiang and inherit the Chu family, but now Chu Xiang had no connection to the Chu family, and she didn’t even have the surname “Chu” anymore.
She angrily rushed back home and pointed at the Chen couple, shouting loudly, “Are you two vampires? Can’t you stand to see me doing well? What benefit do you get from me being abandoned by the Chu family? Are you satisfied now? You want money too? Ptooey! I won’t give you a single penny!”
Mr. Chen, who was originally slouched on the sofa, drinking heavily and intoxicated, got up and grabbed her when he heard her screams. He threw the bottle to the ground and shouted, “How dare you curse at me? I’ll kill you!”
“Ah!” Chen Xuan screamed in horror, feeling like she was on the verge of death as his fist struck her body in an instant!
