Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Driving Her Out of the He Family
Old Mr. He rebuked Fang Anning sharply, and Fang Anning felt deep remorse and had nowhere to hide.
"Sorry, I know saying this now is meaningless. But other than apologizing, I don’t know what else I can do."
Old Mr. He took a deep breath and slowly said: "I don’t need your apology or anything else from you. Just go! You are simply not suitable to stay by Tingchen’s side. Perhaps, it was my mistake from the start to keep you by Tingchen’s side, thinking you were the variable for Tingchen. Just go! Our agreement is hereby terminated."
"Old sir, please give me another chance," Fang Anning pleaded as she knelt down quickly.
Her mother’s illness had just begun to show improvements; the last time they visited the United States, doctors said the treatment was effective and continuous treatment might help her regain consciousness.
If it ended now, all previous efforts would be in vain.
"You don’t need to do this; your mother can continue to receive treatment in the United States. However, the subsequent costs and all related matters must be handled by you, our He family will no longer be involved. Mrs. Chen, see her out," Old Mr. He said sternly.
Mrs. Chen came over with a solemn expression and said to Fang Anning, "Miss Fang, please leave now!"
Not even calling her ’wife’ anymore, but directly Miss Fang.
It seems even Mrs. Chen knows Old Mr. He has made up his mind.
Fang Anning stood up from the ground, and deeply bowed to Old Mr. He before leaving with Mrs. Chen.
It was raining heavily outside.
Mrs. Chen handed Fang Anning her luggage and gave her an umbrella, saying: "Tell Chen Rui where you want to go, I’ll have Chen Rui take you there one last time."
Fang Anning thanked Mrs. Chen and asked Chen Rui to take her to Li Xiaoxiao’s place.
Late at night, Fang Anning suddenly showed up; Li Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment and hurriedly let her in and closed the door asking, "Why did you come over all of a sudden?"
"Got kicked out," Fang Anning shrugged.
"Kicked out? Why?" Li Xiaoxiao asked in surprise.
Fang Anning said with a wry smile: "What else could it be? I craved something and ate a spicy hot pot meal, then got kicked out. Perhaps... they thought I had no taste! How could I afford hot pot, belonging to such a wealthy family as the He family?"
"What? Just for a single meal of hot pot they kicked you out? The He family must be sick! But, being kicked out might be good, such a terrifying wealthy family, better we stay away. Moreover, being alive after getting out is already a fortune. Don’t think too much, go take a shower and sleep, we can talk more tomorrow," Li Xiaoxiao comforted her.
Fang Anning nodded.
She didn’t want to think too much anyway.
But what about her mother’s subsequent treatment and medical costs?
But what Li Xiaoxiao said was also true, worrying too much now is useless, better to quickly take a bath and go to sleep.
Worry about tomorrow’s troubles tomorrow!
The next day, when Fang Anning woke up, Li Xiaoxiao had already prepared breakfast.
While eating breakfast, the two discussed their next plans.
When Li Xiaoxiao heard that the subsequent treatment costs for Mrs. Fang had to be borne by themselves, she choked immediately.
Quickly drinking a sip of water to clear her throat, she asked: "The He family kicked you out, didn’t they give you any compensation?"
"Maybe! There were some agreed upon compensations... I need to check with Wen Yi," Fang Anning said.
She hadn’t given birth to a child, so the compensations promised by Old Mr. He naturally felt awkward to claim. However, while she felt awkward about claiming the He family’s properties, the inheritance left for her by Zhou Xueqin was something she could claim.
With those, the funds for her mother’s subsequent treatment should suffice.
Li Xiaoxiao, upon hearing this, felt relieved and said: "Since Mrs. Fang’s medical fees can be settled, then there’s no need to worry. In case it’s not enough, the two of us can try harder, we can manage."
"Xiaoxiao, I was initially thinking of having you share in my fortune with me. I didn’t expect you to continue enduring hardships with me," Fang Anning said sadly as she held her hand.
Li Xiaoxiao replied: "What’s there to worry about, it’s not like we haven’t suffered before. Don’t think too much, quickly finish your meal and go to school. Right now, studying is the most important thing, graduating smoothly will help you find a better job."
Fang Anning nodded and quickly gobbled down a few bites, letting Li Xiaoxiao go to work first. After packing up, she then ran to school.
As soon as Mu Yunxi saw her, he stuck to her like a plaster, even holding a bottle of yogurt, asking with a smile, "Have you had breakfast? If not, I have yogurt here."
"Keep it for yourself! Mu Yunxi, I’m warning you, follow me and I won’t be polite," Fang Anning sternly warned.
Mu Yunxi approached with a playful smile.
Fang Anning clenched her teeth in anger, stepped strongly on his foot, and took the opportunity to dash away as he jumped in pain.
After school, Fang Anning was worried that Mu Yunxi would bother her again.
So as soon as school ended, she hurriedly ran from the west gate, planning to go to the city library to read books and look up materials.
However, just as she left the west gate, she saw a luxury car parked at the gate.
At first, Fang Anning didn’t pay attention, as their university entrance often had luxury cars; there were many such cars parked here every day, picking and dropping people off.
But just as she was about to bypass the luxury car to head to the bus station, suddenly the door of the luxury car opened, and someone familiar stepped down.
"Miss Fang."
"Mr. Wen?"
Fang Anning frowned and quickly ran over.
"Mr. Wen, why is it you?" Fang Anning asked in surprise.
Then she quickly added: "Right, how is Mr. He? Has his allergy improved?"
Mr. Wen said: "I am here to take Miss Fang back home."
"Home? Mr. Wen is joking, that place is no longer my home. The old man drove me out, said he no longer needed me. Right, I was also planning to find Mr. Wen to settle my assets, since Mr. Wen is here today, how about I treat you to coffee, and we can settle it?"
"I am not in a position to decide that, Mr. He woke up and has been looking for you. So he specifically sent me to bring you back," Wen Yi said with a smile.
"But, the old man..."
"You should speak about those things directly with Mr. He," Wen Yi insisted and invited her into the car.
Fang Anning had no choice but to follow him into the car and return to the He family.
Just right, she also wanted to check on He Tingchen’s health, as it was her mistake that caused it. From both a moral and rational standpoint, she should visit.
Mu Yunxi ran out from the school chasing after Fang Anning, just as he stepped out of the west academic area’s gate, he saw Fang Anning getting into a nice car.
His eyes fixated on the car, fists clenched tightly.
That’s when Chen Mengmeng came over, arms crossed and scoffed, "Look at the license plate, looks like it’s the He family’s car. She has become the He family’s wife, and you’re still hopelessly longing, what’s the point?"
"Of course, there’s a point," Mu Yunxi said coldly.
Chen Mengmeng puzzledly asked: "What point?"
"That’s none of your business," Mu Yunxi turned and left.
