C15 When I Don't dare

Everyone was still in a state of shock. No one had expected Xiao Chen to suddenly jump out and say something.

Chu Yunxiang still had his head lowered as he muttered something because of the old man's interference.

However, Lau Ruman turned her gaze to Xiao Chen. This was the first time in three years that she had seen Xiao Chen's face.

Chu Huaiyu also took a deep breath and looked over while blinking her eyes.

However, Liu Hongmei was not as calm as them. She stared at Xiao Chen and shouted, "Kid, are you trying to blackmail me now?"

Others might not understand, but how could Liu Hongmei not know?

She had thrown away all the things in the villa in front of Xiao Chen and Chu Huaiyu.

Now that Xiao Chen said so, didn't he want her to compensate for the things she had lost?

Giving out a villa for no reason had already made her bleed to this point. If she took out tens of millions of things to prepare, it would be directly gouging out her flesh! This was completely treating her like a sucker!

Glancing at Liu Hongmei's fierce gaze, Xiao Chen seemed to not notice the viciousness in her eyes.

"From the looks of it, you still want to call the police to arrest me?"

"Do you think I don't dare?"

"Tsk tsk..." Xiao Chen smacked his lips, "Just say that this person is old and has a bad memory! You seem to have forgotten that those things were Huaiyu's from the beginning."

"Don't say that the crime of you damaging other people's belongings is not small. Just based on your 'extortion' just now, I can sue you for slander! Do you think the police will arrest me or you?" Xiao Chen was calm and composed.

This was the second time Xiao Chen talked about age. Wasn't she putting on makeup to cover up the wrinkles on her face?

But this bastard kept exposing her short hair with every word he said, so much so that her face, which was already covered like a ghost, became even more ashen.

"You stupid kid. If you have the ability, let them catch one of me!"

"Our Huaiyu is not like some people who do ugly things and spread it all over the Internet. After all, she is now the heir of the Chu family. You are not afraid of losing face. We, Huaiyu, still have to consider the reputation of the Chu family."

"What did you say?" Liu Hongmei's eyes changed.

She was not a fool. How could she not tell that someone was talking about her son?

"Although you are not very competent as an elder, Huaiyu cannot shamelessly ask you if you are strong or not. Why don't you guess that our old man even took out the villa. Would he care about those few things?"

Xiao Chen said it calmly, but there was not a single word that did not carry a strong threat. "Do you think the old man will listen to your slanderous words?"

"No!"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen nodded his head swiftly, but the corner of his mouth curled up. He should not have sneered.

"Unfortunately, some people just made the old man unhappy. If Huaiyu did not have a good rest because of these people, and the cooperation with Zhang family caused any unhappiness, then it is not certain."

"You, you..."

Chu Huaiyu was so angry that she trembled. She pointed at Xiao Chen, but after a long time, she still couldn't figure out what was going on.

She had been in the Chu family for decades. How could she not understand Chu Yingxiong's temper?

In order to cooperate with the Zhang family, the old man could strip Chu Wei of his position as the heir without saying anything. He even coldly chased Chu Wei out of the house with a single order. She was just a daughter-in-law. Without the blood connection, how could the old man be soft-hearted to her?

Anger, resentment, but these were useless!

She did not dare to bet! She also did not dare to provoke the anger that the old man had just extinguished!

She had endured for dozens of years and finally managed to reach this stage with great difficulty. How could she let all her efforts go to waste because of a moment of anger?

She clenched her fist tightly and panted heavily for a few breaths. It was only after a long while that she finally suppressed her anger.

She took out a bank card and threw it over. She gritted her teeth and said, "How much money will I need from you?"

"I don't need it either!"

Xiao Chen took out his phone and looked at the time. He did not pay attention to Liu Hongmei anymore. He turned around and said to Chu Huaiyu and her mother, who were still in a daze, "Mother-in-law, my wife, it is not early anymore. Shall we find a place to cushion our stomachs first?"

"Oh, okay!"

Chu Huaiyu nodded her head mechanically and supported her mother as she walked out. No one took a look at the bank card.

Only when he walked past Liu Hongmei did Xiao Chen lightly add on.

"A friendly reminder. Huaiyu is nostalgic. If you are lacking in ability, you will not be able to make it. Pretending to be a second-rate person, Huaiyu may not be able to sleep well. After all, she is the person in charge of collaborating with the Zhang family. If something goes wrong at work because of this, hehe..."

After saying that, Xiao Chen didn't stay any longer.

The atmosphere in the car was even more depressing than he had imagined.

Xiao Chen had wanted to tell a joke several times to divert his attention, but other than himself, no one else could laugh.

"Yu, your dad, he was only worried about you, that's why he..." After a long time, Lau Ruman opened her mouth.

However, as she said this, she lowered her voice, because even she herself did not believe it.

"Alright Mom, let's not talk about him. In the future, we will just treat it as if there is no such person between us. You should also be hungry. It's been a long time since we had dinner together. What do you want to eat? I'll book a table immediately! "

Taking a deep breath, Chu Huaiyu interrupted her mother's words and quickly changed the topic.

Seeing her frown but pretending to be indifferent, Lau Ruman mumbled a few times and did not continue in the end.

Silence once again returned, but this time it did not last long because the restaurant had arrived.

The three of them had eaten and drank enough. When they returned to Half Mountain Villa, the furniture company's people were still busy.

The group of security guards who were helping to chase the people out yesterday were supervising the scene. When they saw Chu Huaiyu return, they all lowered their heads uneasily.

It was still the captain who walked over with a coy face. He bowed and said, "Director Chu, almost everything is here. Why don't you take a look first?"

However, Chu Huaiyu coldly swept the captain's face and curled her lips. "Who allowed you to come to my house? Get lost as far as you can. From now on, if you dare to come in front of me again as an eyesore, I will immediately fire you!"

With an angry snort, Chu Huaiyu flung her sleeves and directly threw him out.

Seeing that group of people getting out of the villa dejectedly, the accumulated resentment in her heart was finally half vented.

"Don't say that. That old lady's efficiency is not bad. Huaiyu, look at what else is missing. Let's settle the score with her properly!" Xiao Chen glanced to the left and right. He chuckled and said.

Chu Huaiyu immediately rolled her eyes and glared at Xiao Chen.

If this small matter was really exposed to the old man, no matter what Liu Hongmei did, she would not be able to live a good life.

In any case, she was already very satisfied to be able to make Liu Hongmei suffer such a huge setback.

As for the remaining debts, Chu Huaiyu was not in a hurry. In the future, she would have plenty of time to slowly settle it with that old woman!
