C55 The past Is like Smoke(2)

"Pah!" Fang Xishuang slapped her across the face: "Bastard! How did I give birth to such a shameless daughter like you!"

"Love..." Cheng Yu Kun laughed out loud. He suddenly stood up and walked in front of Bai Jin. "Just because you don't love Li Chuan, you cheated on him behind his back? Just because you still love that poor bastard, Gu Xin Chen, did you lose face for me and your mother? It's all because of your selfishness that you caused the Li family to become enemies with our family. The million-dollar bill that you were about to get disappeared without a trace? You really are your mother's good daughter! Xishuang, you really raised an incredible daughter!"

Bai Jin's face turned even paler. Cheng Yu Kun held onto his walking stick tightly and said sternly: "Since you don't want to be together with Li Chuan anymore, then let's settle the score as well. Shouldn't you return the one million to me too?"

Fang Xishuang was stunned for a moment. Obviously, she did not know that there was still a deal between Bai Jin and Cheng Yu Kun. "Yu Kun, what did you say?"

Cheng Yu Kun snorted coldly. "Your good daughter once borrowed one million yuan from me in private. I didn't ask her for it for the sake of my son-in-law. Now that you are no longer the daughter-in-law of the Li Family, it is time for you to return the million yuan to me!"

"One million?" Fang Xi Shuang was so angry that her chest tightened. She immediately shouted at Bai Jin, "You traitor! What about the one million? What did you do with that one million?!"

Bai Jin looked at Cheng Yu Kun in shock and sadness. At that time, he did not say that at all. He said that she only needed to use the money. They were father and daughter, so why would they talk about money and hurt their relationship? Now that he said it himself, wouldn't it hurt their relationship?

At that moment, Bai Jin's heart was torn into pieces. So the so-called family was someone who would add insult to injury when you were in the most pain?

"That's not what you said at first!" Bai Jin shouted at the top of his lungs.

Cheng Yu Kun snorted coldly. "That was what you said back then, and now it is what it is now. If you are willing to return to the Li Family and beg for Li Chuan's forgiveness, and ask him to agree not to divorce you, I will not hold you accountable for the one million yuan."

The coldness slowly crept up to her heart and gradually enveloped it.

This was her family, and they were still forcing her to return to Li Chuan's side!

Bai Jin's eyes were broken: "If you want me to return that million, you might as well kill me, because I have already spent that million yuan."

"You spent it? Where did you spend it? A whole million, you spent it all?" Fang Xi Shuang hit her, and her eyes turned red, but it was due to the lack of money.

Cheng Yu Kun shouted, "Stop for a moment!"

Fang Xi Shuang trembled in fear, "Yu Kun, that is one million yuan!"

"Shut up!" Cheng Yu Kun shouted, then said to Bai Jin, "You've already spent it. Fine, then you don't have any other choice now. Get the hell back to the Li Family in two days. Don't ask me to personally send you back!" He then looked at Fang Xi Shuang and said, "You can settle your own daughter by yourself!"

"Am I even worse than a beast in your eyes?" Bai Jin asked Cheng Yu Kun with a silly smile on his face. In the past, he had ignored her, but later on, when he got married to Li Chuan, she felt that his stepfather cared for her in an extremely meticulous manner. It made her think that she had finally experienced fatherly love. Who knew that all of this was just an illusion?

In Cheng Yu Kun's eyes, she was just a pet that he had adopted. No, she was even worse than a pet. At the very least, a pet still had its master to love it. She was nothing more than a burden, an existence that everyone hated. When she was useful, she would be sold as a commodity.

Cheng Yu Kun turned around and looked at her coldly. "Even if Erhu is a beast, he still knows how to repay kindness, but you only know how to be ungrateful!"

Erhu was a dog raised by Cheng Yu Kun. She was really worse than a beast.

Cheng Yu Kun walked away with his walking stick.

"Where did you spend that million?" Fang Xishuang pulled her back, "Your wings are really tough now. You actually dare to ask your Uncle Cheng for money behind my back! Then, where did you spend the million yuan? Tell me!"

"Get out!" Bai Jin could not stand it anymore and squeezed out these words from the gaps between his teeth.

"You, who are you talking to!? I'm your mother! You little bastard!" Fang Xishuang was stunned, and she immediately stomped her feet in anger and cursed.

"Get out!" Bai Jin's eyes were wide open, and his teeth were chattering. "Get out! Get out!"

She pushed Fang Xi Shuang out and knocked on the door. "Bai Jin, open the door! Open the door!"

Bai Jin leaned against the wall, and his tears flowed out like a spring. His heart was once again immersed in darkness.

Ever since she appeared in the Cheng family, she had always been an awkward existence. She was not related to Cheng Yu Kun by blood. The moment others heard Cheng Yue's words, they immediately knew that they were Cheng Yu Kun's children. She was the only one. Every time a guest came to the Cheng family and saw her, their eyes would be filled with surprise. Thus, she would hide in the house or go out for the whole day and never come back.

She did not have any status in the Cheng family, and at most, she was just a nanny. She cooked, washed the clothes, and cleaned the house. She had to share the heavy work. Except for the occasional kind words to her, the others treated her as if she didn't exist. They always ordered her around as if she was a servant. To put it bluntly, she was just a 'tenant' who used her 'labor force' to exchange for food, lodging, and tuition.

What she wanted, she could never get. She could only get what she didn't want on purpose. Even so, she had never resented or hated anyone because she knew that she was different from Cheng Yue and Cheng Cheng on purpose.

She lived carefully and humbly. What she wanted was to leave the family and live the life she wanted, but in the end, she could never get out of the cage of the family.

Because the money that was about to fall into her hands had flown away, and there was no longer any money tree, Cheng Yu Kun and her mother came to force her to return to the Li family and ask her to bow her head to Li Chuan and beg him to spare her. Therefore, when her mother, Fang Xishuang, appeared again in the afternoon, she was not surprised in the slightest. However, this time, her mother's attitude was much kinder.

"Xiao Jin, Mom wants to talk to you," Fang Xi Shuang took her hand and said gently.

Bai Jin looked at his mother's white hand, but he remained expressionless.

Fang Xi Shuang pulled her over to the sofa and they sat down. She held her hand in one hand and caressed her swollen face with the other. "Does it hurt?"

Bai Jin turned his face away and remained silent.

"Little Jin, I know that you blame your mother and Uncle Cheng for being ruthless to you and forcing you to return to the Li Family. But mom and Uncle Cheng are doing this for your own good." Fang Xi Shuang said sincerely, "Women have to rely on men for the rest of their lives. If you don't find a good man to rely on, spend his money, let him spoil you, and do whatever he wants to do. If you don't do this, what's the point of living? A beautiful woman should be raised, pampered, and doted on by a man. As for you, you can just spend his money and enjoy what a woman should enjoy. Isn't that good?"
