At this moment, a tall figure appeared in front of her.

He slightly bent his body and whispered into her ear, "He is him, I am me. If you don't say what you want, I won't let you go!"

There was a playful smile on Jiang Yunxian's face. Naturally, he could tell that Chu Li was in a hurry.

He really is a freak!

Chu Li gritted her teeth and spread her delicate palm in front of his face. "Just give me the design fee!"

The smile on Jiang Yunxian's face froze. He walked around to the trunk and found a bag the size of a bucket filled with cash. He took out 100,000 yuan and gave it to Chu Li, saying with a hint of ridicule, "Is it enough?"

100,000 was too much. However, when she saw Jiang Yunxian's infuriated expression, she opened her black plastic bag and put the money in it. Then, she stood up and prepared to leave.

Jiang Yunxian stretched out his long arm and stopped Chu Li.

"You still have a chance for me to help you, don't miss it." The corner of his mouth curled up. Of course, he saw that the black plastic bag with the money inside made her curious. What was she going to do?

Chu Lian looked at the time and pursed her lips. She looked at the proud man and said, "Then please help me deliver it to the passenger center in the city."

"You, you actually let me be your driver!" Jiang Yunxian gritted his teeth as he angrily shook his hand, climbed onto the Lamborghini, and disappeared from Chu Li's sight.

Chu Li let out a breath and quickly took a taxi.

Peace Street, their old home.

"Cough, cough, cough!" As soon as Chu Li got off the car, he started to cough violently. The originally simple and unadorned Peace Town was now in ruins. The air was filled with smoke and dust, making people's noses extremely uncomfortable.

"Lemon, here you are." Mother Chu was delighted to see her daughter at the station.

The mother and daughter sat on the rickshaw that could deliver people to their home. Chu Li looked worriedly at her mother and said, "Mom, tell me, how did dad get into conflict with them?"

Seeing her daughter's worried expression, Chu Mu's mother looked away. She held her daughter's slightly cold hand and said in a heavy tone, "We'll talk about this when we get home."

The rickshaw moved along the bumpy road, almost jolting people to pieces before it reached its destination.

The three-storey building at home had disappeared. The abandoned bricks on the ground and some exposed steel bars showed that it had been here before.

"Ai!" Chu Mu's mother sighed softly. Tears welled up in Chu Li's eyes.

"Has that damned girl returned yet!?" His father came out from a temporary room on the first floor. Due to a serious illness a year ago, his entire body was dark and thin, but his voice was exceptionally loud.

"Dad!" Chu Li saw her father's expression change from happiness to puzzlement. She turned her head to look at her mother, "Mom, isn't Dad fine? Why did you call me back?"

Mother Chu didn't want to say anything, so she folded her arms in front of her chest and avoided her eyes.

Chu Feng's father walked up to Chu Li, his eyes were as wide as bells. He spat out a mouthful of phlegm and scolded, "I told your mother to call you back. The house doesn't have you as her daughter anymore. If it wasn't for the fact that I'm dying, would you have come back?"

"I'm trying to find a way to raise money, but you can't lie to me about your poor health!" Chu Li's eyes were moist and his cheeks bulged in anger.

"You still dare to talk back!" Her father poked her in the head with his index finger. "Where's the money?"

Chu Li took out fifty thousand yuan in cash.

Chu Yu's father shook his head in dissatisfaction, "Since it's so small, what can I do about it!"

"Dad, mom, the demolition government will definitely make up for more than half of the compensation. Your savings plus me will first build a grey house for Xiaolan. As for the rest, just let him earn it himself. He's also 20." Chu Li said earnestly. His younger brother was not bad, but he was doted on by his parents.

"Where did we get all our savings from? Isn't it all used up?" Father Chu confidently said.

"Don't you have three hundred thousand gold coins to treat patients?" Chu Li couldn't help but recall the time when he spent more than two hundred thousand yuan on the operation. According to his parents' thrifty character, there should still be a lot left over.

My parents raised you to such a big and married you to such a good family. Yuhao started such a big company, and you, the boss of the company, even had to fuss about it with your own parents. Besides, your mother isn't your backer. Father Chu spoke a long string of words.

Chu Mu's mother lowered her head in silence.

If her daughter was rich, she would also want her daughter to pull out some family members.

Chu Li took out another 50,000 yuan from the black plastic bag. She had taken the 100,000 yuan from Jiang Yunxian in an attempt to return 90 thousand yuan to him through Song Yimin. Now that the money had been given out, she could not help but feel a little depressed.

His father took the money and looked a lot happier. His small eyes were still staring at the plastic bag. "My good daughter, the amount of money you need to build this house is almost enough. This decoration!"

"Dad, I borrowed this money from a friend, I can't give it to you anymore." Chu Li tightly held the remaining fifty thousand yuan, his beautiful eyes full of caution.

She was going to return the final fifty thousand to Fang Yuhao.

After reading Fang Yuhao's diary, she didn't believe a word he said.

She was going to get a divorce!

"Ai!" Father Chu stared at the black plastic bag with unforgettable thoughts. He took out a pack of Peony River and started smoking, his rough fingers holding onto the cigarette as he scolded his daughter, "Say, you better grab Yuhao's heart. Didn't you use all the money in this house? Furthermore, you haven't even given birth yet. Is there something wrong with you?

"Dad —" Chu Li felt as if ten thousand people knew what was going on in her ears.

"What? You're not happy even with just a few words? I'm your dad, I'm doing this for your own good!" His father's caterpillar like eyebrows twitched as he spoke loudly.

Chu Mu's mother quickly came over to stop her father, and tried to smooth things over, "Alright, your son just came back, so speak less!"

"You two, mother and daughter, do not like me at all!" Father Chu seemed to have gone into menopause.

"Dad, mom, I'm going home first!" Chu Li could not stay any longer. He walked away in a hurry, but he bumped into his younger brother Chu Lan on the way.

He came back with a bunch of bad friends who stole two watermelons. When he saw his elder sister, who he hadn't seen for a long time, he immediately gave her a big hug with a watermelon in his left hand. "Sis, how much money have you brought for us to build a house?"

Money again!

Hearing money made Chu Li's head ache.

She had rejected Chu Lan's offer and also refused to continue chatting with her.

"Hey, Le Le, can I stay at your house for the night?" Tears welled up in Chu Li's eyes, and the hand holding the phone trembled slightly. It was as if she couldn't return to any family, and could only beg her good friend to take her in.
