In fact, at least thirty to forty percent of parents in this world do not genuinely love their own children. Another thirty to forty percent raise their children rely for the sake of "raising children to provide for old age." Their efforts are made with the expectation of high returns. Only a very small percentage, perhaps ten to twenty percent, of parents truly love their children wholeheartedly, without expecting anything in return. Specifically, when it cos to daughters, this percentage of genuine love likely drops even further.
Yan Xixi recalled Father Xu’s ridiculous demand and sighed, "What would they do if you didn’t give them 10,000 yuan a month?"
"They would co and make a scene from ti to ti, pestering until I couldn’t bear it anymore and gave in."
Yan Xixi took Xu Xiaoya’s phone, switched it on, and browsed through her photo album. Xu Xiaoya didn’t know what she was planning. Just as Yan Xixi flipped to a photo of Xu Xiaoya’s whole family, the phone rang again. Father Xu’s voice was deafening, "Xiaoya, why did you hang up on ?"
Yan Xixi’s voice was even louder than his. "Listen carefully! Xu Xiaoya misappropriated store funds to buy a house. I’m going to court to apply for a freeze on her new property. She also has to compensate the store 1,000,000 yuan. She definitely gave that money to your family, so you must hand over this 1,000,000 yuan to !"
"What? 1,000,000 yuan?"
"Don’t play innocent! If she didn’t give this 1,000,000 yuan to you, who else would she give it to? Just you wait! I’ll send you a lawyer’s letter. She’s a mber of your Xu Family, so you must compensate for this money!"
She was furious, her voice like thunder. Hearing this, Father Xu was frightened. His bravado imdiately deflated, and he stamred, "No... we haven’t seen a single penny... This has nothing to do with us..."
Then, he hung up first.
This ti, it was Xu Xiaoya’s turn to be dumbstruck. After a long pause, she suddenly laughed. "Now they probably won’t dare to show up at my door for a long ti."
Ordinary people fear legal trouble more than anything, especially when it involves a sum as large as 1,000,000 yuan. They would want to avoid it at all costs.
Yan Xixi glanced at the photo on the phone and then stared at Xu Xiaoya. "Honoring your parents is right and proper! But you shouldn’t treat yourself as your brother’s slave. Just because he’s a boy, are you going to let him bleed you dry your entire life? From now on, you’ll give your parents 30,000 yuan a year for living expenses, and only once, at the end of the year. Not a penny more. I’ll send this photo to the building’s security guards. In the future, they are not to let these people in. Otherwise, don’t bla for being harsh."
Xu Xiaoya’s face lit up. "Xixi, you always have a way! This really solves a huge problem for ."
She quickly poured a cup of hot tea. "Xixi, quickly, drink so tea."
Yan Xixi gulped down the tea, then rembered her main purpose. "Xiaoya, you really need to prepare yourself. I ca today with so bad news."
"What bad news?"
"I’ve decided to return this shop to Wan Donglin."
Xu Xiaoya was taken aback and said cautiously, "Third Master was just at the shop two days ago. He made it very clear that this shop is yours and told to help you look after it well."
Yan Xixi slowly lifted her head. The gauze had been removed, and the wound on her forehead had scabbed over. She had even deliberately cut awkward-looking bangs to hide it. That was why Xu Xiaoya hadn’t noticed it earlier.
Now, as Yan Xixi brushed her bangs aside, Xu Xiaoya saw the wound clearly and exclaid, "Xixi, how did you get hurt so badly?"
"Wan Donglin ca looking for ."
"Oh my God, he beat you up like this?"
