Holding the severance letter, Xu Zeqing drove the family car straight to the police station.
Xu Xingguang and Huo Wen’an also hopped on the truck and left triumphantly.
You Jiaoyang stood in the yard, watching the disappearing silhouette of the truck, furrowing his brows.
"What are you still watching?" You Jingqiu stood beside You Jiaoyang, unable to hide a smug smile.
She said, "You might not know this, but your Uncle Xu will soon be back on his feet. Xu Xingguang broke ties with the Xu Family today over so punk, and when the Xu Family becos prosperous, the inheritance will have nothing to do with her."
"By then, everything your Uncle Xu owns will be yours, won’t it?" You Jingqiu long wanted to expel Xu Xingguang from the Xu Family completely.
She hadn’t co up with a clever plan yet, and Xu Xingguang went ahead and ruined herself.
This is a case of the pillow appearing just as one gets sleepy.
"Mom." You Jiaoyang called out in a complex tone, saying, "I finally understand why Mo Yinshu can be a writer, while you can only run a beauty salon."
You Jingqiu raised an eyebrow.
She felt her son’s words weren’t exactly complints.
You Jiaoyang shook his head and said, "Because you don’t have a brain."
"You brat, how dare you speak to your mother like that?" You Jingqiu rolled her eyes at You Jiaoyang.
Clearly, Jiaoyang used to be a very obedient and well-behaved child.
Since that sumr when he graduated from university, after going to Sea City with friends and accidentally being swept out to sea by the currents, he was rescued, but then remained in a coma for several days. When he woke up, his personality changed.
He beca quieter, more ambitious, but also sowhat indifferent.
The feeling, how to put it, was like he had been reborn, becoming a different person.
You Jingqiu even suspected her son’s brain was injured, revealing the kind of split personality ntioned on TV.
You Jiaoyang suddenly said, "Didn’t you notice?"
You Jingqiu asked, "What should I have noticed?"
"Xu Xingguang intentionally brought her boyfriend to provoke Uncle Xu. Cutting ties was actually her real purpose for being here today."
But such an obvious thing, Xu Zeqing couldn’t see, and neither could You Jingqiu.
You Jingqiu was stunned.
"Is, is that so?" You Jingqiu carefully reflected, and also found Xu Xingguang’s actions today sowhat strange.
She invited Xu Xingguang to stay for dinner, to celebrate Ming Yue Jiaoyang’s birthday, and she really stayed.
Considering Xu Xingguang’s level of annoyance towards Ming Yue, not rolling her eyes was already rciful.
"But cutting ties with the Xu Family, what good does it do her?"
You Jingqiu wondered aloud, "Your Uncle Xu’s company may have been acquired, but he still has so cash at hand. Your uncle works on Divine Concealnt Island; after Xu Xingguang graduates, maybe he could help her find a job."
"Leaving the Xu Family, she has nothing, what is she after?"
Yes, what is she after?
You Jingqiu’s confusion was also You Jiaoyang’s confusion.
Was Xu Xingguang in such a rush to cut ties with the Xu Family because the Xu Family was headed for trouble?
But the Xu Family hadn’t done anything illegal recently.
While the mother and son were talking, the sound of a car horn rang outside again. It was Chu Zimu bringing so friends to celebrate You Mingyue’s birthday.
"Mr. Chu is here, let’s stop talking." You Jingqiu quickly tidied herself up and gestured for You Mingyue to join her in greeting the guests.
You Mingyue threw herself into Chu Zimu’s arms with a playful smile, saying, "Let guess, what birthday gift did you prepare for ?"
Chu Zimu looked at her dotingly, playing along with her little ga. "Then guess, I’ll give you three chances, and if you can’t guess."
Chu Zimu leaned down and whispered in You Mingyue’s ear, "Then you’ll go out with tonight, and won’t co back."
You Mingyue’s heart beat a little faster.
Going out with Chu Zimu and not coming back for the night, she naturally understood what that implied.
You Mingyue then said, "I guess it’s a necklace." Because just a few days ago, she ntioned how the new Ruby necklace from the T Family was very pretty, but very expensive, with an official price of over two hundred thousand.
Chu Zimu shook his head and said, "Two chances left."
Finding out the birthday gift wasn’t the necklace she wanted most, You Mingyue felt a bit disappointed but didn’t show it. She said again, "Could it be a handbag?"
"How tacky," Chu Zimu gently tapped You Mingyue’s nose, reminding her, "Only one chance left."
You Mingyue suddenly beca cautious.
She pondered for a while, unable to fathom Chu Zimu’s thoughts.
Just then, You Mingyue noticed Chu Zimu’s friends behind him gesturing towards the car trunk.
You Mingyue’s eyes shifted slightly, she said, "Could it be a trunk full of balloons?"
"Still wrong." Chu Zimu led You Mingyue to the back of the car, asking her to close her eyes.
