On the other hand, Xia Ruo Tong. When he heard her name, Xia Jiangcheng thought for a few days before choosing it. Needless to say, in his eyes, Xia Ruo Tong was his precious pair of eyes.
In her previous life, she was stubborn and straightforward, just like a cannon fodder. Not only did she commit the crime of being arrogant and domineering, but she also became more and more courteous and gentle, making Xia Jiangcheng, who didn't like her at all, hate her even more.
In the entire Xia family, only her grandfather was good to her. No matter what she said or did, his grandfather would always stand by her side to protect her.
So, less than a month after her grandpa died, that woman, Qiao Hui Shan, heard that the old man of the Chi family had chosen a wife for the young master of the Chi family and used some other means to send her information over. Luckily, she was still chosen.
After the Chi family selected her, Xia Jiang became a fawn to the Chi family. He didn't even hesitate to sell her for a mere 20 million yuan loan.
Of course, Xia Jiangcheng didn't know about the Chi family's young master. As for whether he would have a good time after marrying into the Chi family, Xia Jiangcheng didn't care at all.
In his mind, Xia Chu Yi's good-for-nothing daughter could climb the big tree of the Chi family, which must have realized her greatest value.
Because of Xia Jiangcheng's actions, even if she had nowhere else to go in her previous life, she had never had the thought of begging Xia Jiangcheng to submit to her. She, Xia Chuanyi, was a coward that couldn't recognize people, but she also had her own pride, so in this life, it was even more impossible for her to lower her head to that inhumane father of hers!
Xia Chu Yi took a deep breath and looked at the clock on the wall. Then he lowered his head and turned a page of the book, looking at it seriously.
Judging by the time, those people should have arrived by now.
Just as he was thinking about this, the door of the ward was pushed open with a whoosh. A woman around the age of fifty walked in with two bodyguards.
"You are Xia Chu Yi?"
Before Xia Chu Yi could even ask, the other party had already spoken first. However, this person's attitude was still as arrogant as it was in his previous life. He still made people feel uncomfortable!
"What's the matter?" Xia Chu Yi sat up straight, slightly frowned, and asked in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
Although she still looked to be in her teens, temperament was something that came from the inside. She had experienced many things in her last life and even though she ended up in a miserable state, she no longer had the temperament of a seventeen year old child in everyone's eyes.
Thus, after a few simple questions, Aunt Fu retracted her originally contemptuous thoughts.
Aunt Fu was a little intimidated by Xia Chu Yi's aura, but then she remembered the rumors about Xia Chu Yi and felt that her vision had gone blurry. She sneered: "Small fry coming out, as expected, there's no rules!"
Xia Chu Yi ignored Aunt Fu. There was no point in arguing with her. Besides, she was right. Compared to a rich and powerful family like the Chi family, a nouveau riche like the Xia family was nothing. She was just a small fry.
Let alone her, even her old man, Xia Jiangcheng, had to rush up and down to fawn on her when he saw the person in front of him.
Aunt Fu originally thought that with Xia Chu Yi's personality, he would definitely respond if he was scolded, and she also had the intention to take revenge at this moment. Who knew that Xia Chu Yi didn't respond at all, and if she opened her mouth again, it would seem like she was bullying them, so she didn't say anything, instead she sat down on a chair not far from Xia Chu Yi's bed, looking like she was waiting for someone.
This person's identity was not hard to guess, not to mention that Xia Chu Yi had already predicted that she would come today. However, since the other party was clearly ignoring her, she wouldn't be asking to be humiliated like in her previous life. In any case, she already knew this person's purpose in coming here.
Thus, on the first day of summer, he continued to focus all of his energy on the book in his hands.
In her previous life, she had first committed suicide and was hospitalized because she refused to marry, then because the Chi family forced her to use her marriage out of the Xia family, she was chased out of the Xia family. For the sake of three meals, she didn't have the money to continue studying, so she didn't even have the money to participate in the college entrance exams, and in the future, when she looked for a job, she would have to complete her studies no matter what, so in this life, other than taking care of her health, she spent the rest of her time studying.
Aunt Fu didn't expect that Xia Chu Yi would still be so calm after she told her about it. She couldn't help but to size up Xia Chu Yi, wanting to know if he was pretending, but seeing Xia Chu Yi fully concentrated on the English book in his hands, as if it was a world of his own, her seriousness made people want to calm down, relax their limbs, and not disturb her, just like every time she went to her young master's study.
Aunt Fu couldn't help but doubt in her heart, this Xia Chu Yi is really the rumored Xia Chu Yi? Why does it not look like it?
However, thinking that the Chi family would be disgraced if Xia Jiayi would rather commit suicide than marry her family's young master, Aunt Fu couldn't help but to be picky.
This little girl in front of him, how could she be mentioned in the same breath as her young master!
Madam was right!
Even if this Xia Chu Yi wasn't as bad as the rumors said, she wasn't qualified to enter the Chi family's gate when she did such a thing. Otherwise, where would they put their face?
Both of them had their own thoughts and didn't say anything. For a moment, the sickroom was quiet, except for the occasional flipping of books.
Halfway through the book on the first day of summer, the sound of rapid, noisy footsteps came from the corridor. The hand that was flipping through the pages on the first day of summer paused, the corner of his mouth curving into a faint, mocking smile.
Coming at such a fast speed!
Xia Jiangcheng, Qiao Hui Shan, Xia Ruo Tong, and Chen Yang all came together.
Xia Jiangcheng was panting heavily as he wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief. At the same time, he forced out a flattering smile towards Aunt Fu, "Housekeeper Fu, why are you here?"
With that, he turned to Xia Chu Yi, who was still sitting on the bed reading, and scolded him without even giving him a glance, "Child, what do I usually teach you? "Why don't you bring Butler Fu some water?"
Xia Chu Yi closed the book and raised his head to look at Aunt Fu with a faint smile. "Housekeeper?"
