Zhao Chuchu’ s eyebrows were slightly raised. She wondered if she had been recognized by the Xia clan now that they wanted to see her.
“Who is asking for me?” Yuan Hui put down her chopsticks.
“Xia Songquan’s second son, Xia Chengzhu.”
“It’s him!”
Yuan Hui looked at Zhao Chuchu.
“Or should I tell him to leave?
Zhao Chuchu shook her head and asked the maid, “Did he say what he came here for?”
“He wanted to ask Miss Lin to go to the Xia clan to treat Mr. Chengxue. ll
“Is that all?”
“Yes.”
“Okay, you can go now.”
The maid wanted to say something but stopped.
“What else do you want to say?” Zhao Chuchu asked.
The maid looked at Yuan Hui and worked up her courage. “Miss Lin, it seems he is still trying to take you as his concubine.”
Zhao Chuchu couldn’t helD but laugh. “How did vou know that?”
“I heard him tell the people around him that as long as he has money, he can get any woman he wants, including Miss Lin.” The maid got on her knees with a thud. “This is what I heard. I’m not talking nonsense.”
“This bastard. I’ll beat him away now. He thinks he’s somebody just because he’s from the Xia clan?”
Yuan Hui was immediately angry, got up, and went outside.
Zhao Chuchu pulled her back. “You don’t have to get into direct conflict with the Xia clan. Now the Ye and Hong clans are trying to mess up your family.
Doing this will only add fuel to the fire, giving your grandmother a hard time.
Besides, you don’t have to be angry because I’m not even angry yet.”
“But Xia Chengzhu was clearly humiliating you. I can’t stand it.”
“You have to put up with it. I’m not a pushover, either. Just listen to me.” “You still want to follow him to the Xia clan?”
“Now that he has come to the door, he’ll assume I’m scared if I don’t go. Don’t worry. I can take care of myself.”
After a pause, Zhao Chuchu looked at the maid. “Go out and tell them I’ll be right out.”
“Okay.” The maid ran out.
Zhao Chuchu gestured to Yuan Hui to calm down, then went back to the house and groomed herself a little Her appearance was unchanged, but she would not make people think of her mother at once when they saw her.
Yuan Hui was astounded. “You still look the same, but I can scarcely recognize you. How did you do that?”
“It’s called magic. Well, I’ll go out first.”
Zhao Chuchu patted Yuan Hui’s shoulder.
“How about I come with you?” Yuan Hui asked.
“No, what if they are trying to hit on you? I’ll be going alone. You’re likely to be a burden if you come with me. Just stay here.”
Speaking of which, Zhao Chuchu remembered what happened last night. She leaned in and whispered, “There should be something more delightful for you to happen later.”
“Delightful? What is it?”
“I’ll tell you when I come back.”
“Eh, how can you make me curious but not tell me anything? You’re so evil!”
“You will know soon. Consider it a gift from me.”
Now that the Ye clan and the Hong clan had such a scandal, they would become a laughingstock of the whole Guangqing Province if they still had the heart to propose marriage to Yuan Hui.
They were not so shameless after all. The Ye clan, in particular, was the governor of the government. If they dared, they would probably be busted as political opponents.
Zhao Chuchu left the curious Yuan Hui behind and walked to the front yard.
Xia Chengzhu was already waiting there.
It was Mrs. Yuan who greeted him personally.
Before Zhao Chuchu could get close, he heard Xia Chengzhu say, “Madam, it must not be easy for you to take care of such a big family as yours. Our families have been close to each other for a long time. Feel free to let me know should you need anything from me. We’re supposed to help each other.”
Zhao Chuchu almost threw up.
She believed the people of the Xia clan had let their pen*ses take the better of them.
Mrs. Yuan was Xia Chengzhu’s elder, but he didn’t treat her like one. In fact, he took the Yuan clan for granted, as if the women of the Yuan clan were meant to be his belongings.
If not for the fact that the Yuan clan might be blamed if anything happened to Xia Chengzhu, Zhao Chuchu would have sterilized him so that his mind would not be only on women in the future.
“Stop joking, sir. We’ve been competitors. God knows how many people will be freaked out and stand up against us if we become friends. As I see it, we should leave things the way they were.”
“Madam, l i m being serious with it. How can you turn a blind eye to it? You have been alone all these years. Don’t you feel lonely?”
“Sir, please watch your language.”
Even if Mrs. Yuan was a woman of good manners; she couldn’t stand such insulting words. What was more, she was a widow with a relatively bad reputation. If others knew this, it would hugely influence Yuan Hui’s name.
She was not as shameless as he was because she still had two sons who bore the family’s last name.
“Madam, take it easy, please. That’ll put more age on you if you get angry. It’s a loss that you don’t want to suffer. Madam, I think you should mind your business as a woman instead of dealing with family businesses. That way, you’ll look younger.”
“You…”
“Are all men like this, or is it just you?
Zhao Chuchu stepped into the front room and stared at Xia Chengzhu with a smirk. “Are you the one looking for me to treat you? Impotence is not that big of a problem, in fact. Let me get you a prescription. I assure you it will work perfectly for you. You’ll have as much fun as you want, but I’m not sure you will make it.”
Hearing this, his face darkened. “Who are you? How dare you be so impertinent?”
I ‘Oh, I thought you were looking for me. Did I get the wrong message, or are you just trying to make a scene in front of the Xia clan’s door?”
“Are you Miss Lin?”
“Exactly, You are the one who came to look for me at the Xia clan, right? Your disease is not difficult to cure. Take medicine properly and stay abstinent for some time. You’ll be as good as new. But if you stick to your old life habits, you’ll be hopeless.
Zhao Chuchu said with a serious face,
Xia Chengzhu stared at Zhao Chuchu with a deadly look in his eyes as if he wanted to tear Zhao Chuchu apart alive.
No man could accept being told in broad daylight that he was impotent.
However, Zhao Chuchu was telling the truth, so he couldn’t argue. That’s why he was eager to prove himself by looking for more women.
‘I DO you know what you are talking about?”
“Yes, I can tell what is wrong with you by looking at your face. Was I wrong about your symptoms? I Eve never made a mistake.” “How arrogant! Someone, take this bitch down.”
“This is the Yuan clan, not the Xia clan. Don’t you touch her!”
Mrs. Yuan shouted sternly and stood in front of Zhao Chuchu to protect her.
Zhao Chuchu pulled away from Mrs. Yuan, smiled at her, and then shouted, “Help, please, a man is trying to harass me!”
At the same time, she kicked Xia Chengzhu, sending him flying.
Xia Chengzhu had already been very weak. He was not able to react to it in time. He immediately flew out..
