Chapter 313: But I Would Mind Dirty Money
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Looking at Yuan Hui, Chuchu felt that Old Mrs. Yuan and Mrs. Yuan really loved her.
However, they did not know that being overly protective was a kind of cruelty to Yuan Hui.
One day when they were no longer in the world, how would Yuan Hui be able to face those huge waves that came rushing in?
In such a clan, Yuan Hui should have been iron-handed as the eldest daughter. After all, her two brothers were still young, and no one knew which would come first, tomorrow or an accident.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Yuan Hui waved her hand in front of
Chuchu.
Chuchu came to her senses and made up some excuses. “To see why you are so inviting to men.”
Yuan Hui blushed and pushed Chuchu in feigned anger. ‘You are laughing at me, aren’t you?
“Hahahaha…” Chuchu laughed to change the topic. “Second Miss Du i s face just needs some more medicine. I’m returning to Yuanjiang County. Speaking of which, I’ve been in the capital of Guangqing Province for a month now, and I don’t know how my family is doing.”
“I wish you could stay for more days, but it’s not good to always keep you around. Mr. Xie would hate me and even forbid me to take you away next time. When you leave, I’ll have someone prepare something for you to take back so that he won’t kick me out the next time he sees me.”
“He’s not such a person. Don’t worry. He won’t hold a grudge against you.”
The people Xie Heng held a grudge against were all evil. He wouldn’t have a grudge against an innocent young girl. “That’s good.”
Yuan Hui dragged Chuchu and left.
Three days passed in a flash.
Since that day, after being warned by Zhao Chuchu, Xia Chengzhu didn’t dare to have any wicked thoughts about her.
But his resentment toward Xia Songquan was growing day by day.
When requiring a few stores to manage, he was refused and scolded by Xia Songquan, who even warned him not to be so ambitious.
At that time, Lu Ming and other servants were all around. Xia Chengzhu felt great humiliation.
But now Xia Songquan was still in charge of the Xia clan. He decided everything in the Xia clan, so Xia Chengzhu did not dare to make a reckless move.
Besides, Xia Songquan seemed aware of his thoughts and forbade him to go to Xia Chengxue, probably worrying that he would do no good for Xia Chengxue.
The strong precautions didn’t dispel Xia Chengzhu’s evil intention. Instead, he let those terrible thoughts expand wildly. He more and more wanted to become the master of the Xia clan.
Of course, Xia Chengzhu was not intelligent or stupid enough to make a move.
He wanted to bribe Chuchu.
Chuchu started it all in the first place. She naturally couldn’t get herself involved in it. So she refused it firmly.
“I’m just a humble doctor. The open and secret fights in your honored clan have nothing to do with me. That’s my decision, whether to you or your father.”
“I can give you a lot of money. You will never want for anything for the rest of your life.”
“Without your money, I can’t live a comfortable life?”
“Who would mind more money? “But I would mind dirty money.”
Xia Chengzhu.
This woman knew how to annoy people with the worst words.
But, he did not even have the room to retort.
“Mr. Chengzhu, fight openly for what you want. Don’t take the wrong path, or you will regret it for the rest of your life. Finally, it is like drawing water with a sieve. You will get nothing.”
“You didn’t even help me with a small matter. It will not get you involved. I will arrange it.”
“Your promise is not everything. I trust myself more.”
Seeing that Zhao Chuchu could not be convinced, Xia Chengzhu thought that maybe the terms he offered were not attractive enough.
“How about thirty percent of the Xia clan’s profits next year?
Chuchu gave him a disdainful glance. “How could you say that without thinking?”
Xia Chengzhu was so angry with Chuchu that his face turned black, but he didn’t dare to lose his temper with her.
His hidden illness had not fully recovered, and he was worried that Chuchu would refuse to treat him further.
“Mr. Chengzhu, use your brain, or it will rust. Please don’t drag me into the affairs of your family. I just want to be a doctor and earn what I deserve. I don’t want what I shouldn’t earn. I’m not one of those desperadoes who could sacrifice anything for money.”
Chuchu deliberately mentioned it casually, but in fact, she was reminding him.
It’s useless to beg her, but he can buy off desperadoes with money.
The not-so-clever Xia Chengzhu did understand this time.
He was so engrossed in his thought that he didn’t even notice when Chuchu said goodbye.
Chuchu hooked her lips slightly into a smile.
There was no need to break a butterfly on a wheel.
The Kang clan probably didn’t make a move because they didn’t want anyone to get a piece of the pie, but Chuchu was different. She didn’t have half an idea of the money of the Xia clan, so she didn’t have to think so much when she did it.
Any means would do as long as the Xia clan could be brought down.
She didn’t have any interest concerned.
“Miss Lin, wait a second, please.”
Lu Ming suddenly appeared and stopped Chuchu when she walked to the Xia clan’s gate.
She paused her steps and looked back.
Lu Ming walked over. “Miss Lin, Old Mr. Xia wants to see you.”
Chuchu looked at him.
Lu Ming made a please gesture. “Miss Lin, please.” “Is it about Mr. Chengxue?” Chuchu did not move.
“No, Miss Lin, you will know when you go there.”
“I have other things to do. I’m afraid I don’t have time. You can say it here if there’s anything.”
“Old Mr. Xia is looking for you for something. I am not sure exactly what it is.
You will know when you go over.”
“Then maybe some another time.”
If Chuchu didn’t know what Xia Songquan wanted, then she wouldn’t be Zhao
Chuchu.
The nasty thoughts of Xia Songquan were already shown on his face.
The old man could die anytime, but he still indulged in sex and took many aphrodisiacs. Wasn’t he afraid to die during the sex?
“Miss Lin, his patience is limited.”
“What, Mr. Lu, are you threatening me? Don’t forget. I have the Yuan clan behind me. No matter how rich and powerful your clan is, you are no match for the Yuan clan now, right? Or, Mr. Lu, do you want to unilaterally turn against the Yuan clan on behalf of the Xia clan?”
“Miss Lin, you flatter me. I don’t dare to represent the Xia clan. The master has something to discuss with you.”
“My time is more valuable than your master’s. He didn’t say anything when I checked on his illness, and now he’s looking for me. Does he think my time is waiting for him specifically? Both of them think the same way, like father, like son.”
“Mr. Chengzhu also looked for you?
“Mr.Lu, you have the time to question me. Why can’t you be more sensitive to the news? You are the butler of the Xia clan. If you want to know the affairs of the Xia clan, find someone to ask. Mr. Lu, I have to do some work. Now excuse me. I’ll leave.”
Chuchu turned around and walked out.
“Miss Lin, you want to miss a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, even at the expense of offending the Xia clan?” Lu Ming’s tone was slightly cold. “You must know how many women would like to be favored by the Xia clan.”
Chuchu smiled.. “According to what you said, you should also wish to be favored by the Old Master Xia, right? How about you make a sacrifice of yourself?”
