Chapter 395: Chapter 269: Who falls for whose scheme

The second watch had arrived.

------------

Just as Zhao Qiyan hugged Chuxia’s legs, sobbing with snot and tears, the door sounded, and Old Master Zhou, Old Madam Zhou, and Old Master Wan came back.

Never expecting the three to return so soon, Lin Baohe was startled for a moment and hurriedly went to explain, "These two are Yulan’s sister-in-law and niece."

All three elders were sharp, and seeing the expressions of Chuxia, Zhao Yulan, and Lin Baohe, they understood that the relationship between the parties probably wasn’t great. They nodded and went back to their respective rooms.

"Did Uncle Wan and Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou seem angry?" Zhao Yulan looked at Lin Baohe with some concern, "Should you go over and explain?"

"Alright." Lin Baohe didn’t think the three were angry, but he really didn’t want to watch the disgusting display between mother and daughter here, so he quickly got up and went to Old Master Wan’s room first. As the host of the room was Old Master Wan, he naturally had to explain to Old Master Wan first.

Taking advantage of Zhao Qiyan’s moment of distraction, Chuxia finally pried off her fat fingers and pulled out her leg. Who would have thought that Zhao Qiyan, short and chubby as she was, could have such strength.

Being held by such a disgusting woman, she felt as if she were entangled by a snake. If she couldn’t get away, she really would have bitten her.

No, she needed to intensify her physical training. With her current strength, if something happened, it would be too dangerous.

Girls, especially ones that are a bit prettier, must know some self-defense. Hmm, when Zhou Mikang got back, she definitely had to insist he teach her a practical self-defense technique!

"Chuxia..." Zhao Qiyan sniffled pitifully, "I want to fulfill the duties of a sister. Will you give me a chance, please?"

"You don’t need to. Just stay away from me, and that will fulfill a sister’s duty." Chuxia stared directly at her, "No matter what you’re going through or what your motive is, I advise you to stop early.

Also, stop playing the victim here. Whether a person is truly remorseful isn’t about how pitifully they cry or how nice the things they say are.

If you’re sincere, we’ll become a family again someday. For now, using these tactics will only make my mother and me feel disgusted."

Zhao Yulan nodded, agreeing with her daughter’s words.

"I’ll listen to Chuxia and prove it with my actions," Zhao Qiyan continued to sniffle, "My mother and I have truly been living a miserable life these days. Only when one goes through suffering does one reflect and come to understand certain things.

But never mind, I won’t say more. The more I say, the more it seems like I have an ulterior motive. However, there really is something we need to ask for Little Aunt’s help with.

Back when we had a falling out with Grandpa, Grandma, and my father, it was really bad. Going back now would surely result in a cold reception. Could Little Aunt help us write a letter? After my mother and I return, we will live well. As for my marriage, I’ll let it take its course. Little Aunt, will you help us, please?"

Zhao Yulan, seeing her sincerity, really took paper and a pen to write a letter of reconciliation for the mother and daughter.

"Chuxia..."

Chuxia quickly waved her hand to interrupt Zhao Qiyan, "Enough, don’t be so flowery with your words to me; it sounds even more fake."

"You..." Zhao Qiyan smiled helplessly, "It seems I’ve really made a terrible impression on you. But no one else is to blame, I was just immature, ah..."

Here it came again! Chuxia held her forehead in pain. If this mother and daughter spoke as unpleasantly as before, she would have found it easier to kick them out.

But now, except for some unacceptable words from Lin Xiaohua at the beginning, the mother and daughter had turned into kind-hearted little dumplings.

But abnormal behavior suggests demons at play!

She didn’t believe that after suffering for a while, they had truly seen the light.

Knowing them as she did, after hardship, they would only blame others, only hate her and her family even more.

Not like now, with apologies and pain.

Hmm, it was Xiao Yuwen who had taken them away.

So, it was probably Xiao Yuwen who had them return.

The Zhou family was clearly at a disadvantage, and with the Xiao family sending them over, what could be their purpose?

Back then, because of her, Zhou Mikang had beaten Xiao Yuwen. Given his vindictive nature, he was probably determined to get even.

What was the best way to do that?

As Chuxia pondered deeply, Sister-in-law Yin came over and touched her lightly, whispering in her ear, "Jing Zhe is outside, asking for you."
