Xu Zhixia was so angry that she almost laughed. She took advantage of him and still acted like a good boy?

Not only did he cut it in half in one breath, but he also acted like a giver of alms, which was really disgusting.

She was too lazy to talk nonsense and put the IOU in her hand away.

Leng Ran said: "Since you said so, I will go to the factory and ask Uncle Gu if he means the same thing."

Hearing this, Gu's mother was completely panicked.

If Xu Zhixia makes a big deal out of this, Gu's father will not let her go.

I originally wanted to control this money-losing guy, but I didn't expect that this money-losing guy would not play by the rules.

Seeing Xu Zhixia turn around and try to leave, she could no longer maintain her pretense.

He quickly stopped him: "Stop! I can give you money."

"But if you get it, there will be no relationship between the two families in the future. You have to think carefully."

She spoke word by word, staring closely at Xu Zhixia.

Xu Zhixia heard the threat in the words, but she didn't take it seriously.

Mother Gu can’t still think that she still has feelings for Gu Yan, right?

But Mrs. Gu, with her narrow-minded head, might really be thinking about this kind of thing.

A mocking smile appeared on her lips, and she said frankly, "As long as the money is returned, you can't get involved even if you want to."

This look of extreme disgust made Mother Gu angry again.

But she had no other choice but to glare at Xu Zhixia.

Even if you are extremely unwilling, you can only turn around and go back into the house.

He counted it three times before taking out the wrinkled fifteen hundred yuan.

In front of everyone, he handed the money to Xu Zhixia.

After Xu Zhixia collected and counted the money, he tore up the IOU written by Gu Yan and left.

When I got home, Xu's father had already returned.

Xu Zhixia stepped forward, told the whole story, and handed the money he had asked from the Gu family to Xu's father.

"Dad, I'll give you this money."

Father Xu took a look at it and did not take it, with a faint smile on his face.

"Just keep it for yourself. I gave you those things, so the money is naturally yours too."

Xu Zhixia felt a warmth in her heart, and she didn't refuse anymore, but accepted it generously.

Then he changed the subject: "The people who came here today were instigated by the Gu family. I'm worried that they have a backup plan."

Father Xu frowned, but did not doubt Xu Zhixia's words.

"In that case, they should still come."

He was well aware of the characteristics of those rats, and they had become increasingly rampant during this period.

If Zhou An hadn't been here today, not sure what would have happened.

If he is not at home next time...I can't imagine the consequences.

Apparently Xu Zhixia thought so too. She said firmly, "We must move out as soon as possible."

She cleared her throat and said, "Dad, we have to clean up our house too."

Father Xu suppressed the smile on his face and nodded solemnly.

He glanced at her and said directly, "Xia Xia, come with me."

Xu Zhixia followed Xu's father to the study and entered the hidden dark room.

Looking at the dazzling array of treasures in front of her, her breathing became a little rapid.

A trace of sadness flashed in Mr. Xu's eyes as he stroked these things.

"This has been passed down from generation to generation in our family. It is the result of the hard work of every generation of the Xu family."

"Take a look. If it can be solved, that's great. If it can't be solved...it's ok to leave it here."

This was a decision he made after careful consideration.

Most of the items inside are antiques, calligraphy and paintings, as well as priceless rare items.

If it is handed over, it may cause other troubles.

But if it was to be destroyed... he couldn't make up his mind.

Although there is a risk of being discovered by placing it here, it is the best option.

At this time, Xu Zhixia also came back to her senses. She looked around and made up her mind.

"Dad, go out first and let me stay here by myself."

Father Xu felt doubtful, but he turned and left.

When Xu Zhixia was the only one left in the small dark room, she silently recited the word "space" in her heart.

The next second, everything in front of me disappeared.

She suddenly felt dizzy, staggered back two steps, and held onto the wall to avoid falling.

After a while, it stabilized.

She thought for a moment, it seemed that moving too much space at once would have an impact on her, so she shouldn't be so reckless next time.

After her thoughts came back to her senses, she finally had time to re-enter the space and check the situation inside.

All the items were placed exactly as they were in the dark room, with no difference at all. The small space was packed to the brim.

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Xu Zhixia's eyes. This would make it much easier to find things in the future.

Exiting the space, she walked out slowly.

Father Xu was standing at the door and met her gaze.

She felt a little uncomfortable and was about to say something when Father Xu said, "Are you ready? Then go downstairs and eat. Your mother should be waiting for a while."

Xu Zhixia was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously followed Xu's father downstairs.

Realizing that Mr. Xu meant to not ask, she felt a warmth in her heart.

After dinner, Father Xu said straight to the point: "I think Zhou An is a good candidate."

"Wait until tomorrow and have him come to see us at home. If there's no problem, you can go and file a report to accompany the army."

Xu Zhixia paused. To be honest, she had not thought about leaving.

From the very beginning, she planned to get married with Zhou An and then stay here with her parents.

Father Xu saw what she was thinking and advised her earnestly: "Xia Xia, Dad knows you are worried about us, but since you are married, you must live a good life."

She pursed her lips and said stubbornly: "Dad, I will consider joining the army in the future, but now in this limelight, I just want to be with you and mom."

She didn't want to see what happened in her previous life a second time.

Seeing Xu Zhixia's firm attitude, a hint of helplessness flashed in Xu's father's eyes.

He simply changed the subject and advised, "Xia Xia, have you ever thought about what people outside would think if you married Zhou An but didn't go with him to join the army?"

What does the couple's affairs have to do with other people? Xu Zhixia subconsciously wanted to refute, but the words stopped abruptly at her lips.

In this day and age, any little disturbance would be particularly noticeable, and she didn't dare to bet whether anyone would make a fuss about it.

After a moment's silence, she compromised and said, "Okay, I'll tell Zhou An tomorrow."

But whether she will come back after joining the army is up to her.

Seeing that she agreed, Xu's father and mother looked at each other, and a sincere smile appeared in their eyes.

For them, as long as Xia Xia is doing well, it is more important than anything else.

The next day, Xu Zhixia went to find Zhou An and told him what his father meant.

He was a little surprised, but more delighted.

To be honest, he didn't expect that Xu Zhixia would go with him to join the army.

When he thought about marrying the girl of his dreams, his heart beat uncontrollably faster.

"Then I'll go shopping now and then go to your house to propose marriage." He said without hesitation.

Xu Zhixia thought for a moment and said, "Let's go later. I still have to look for a house."

Zhou An paused: "House?"
