“The last time I came here, I had nothing with me, which is why I was driven away.”

"But this time, I refuse to believe you don't like the flavor of soy sauce!"

Xu Qingxue opened the car door, carrying the prepared soy sauce-flavored liquor, and walked to the iron gate.

An elderly man in a red vest passed by in the courtyard. He glanced at Xu Qingxue but didn't look at her again.

As Xu Qingxue watched the old man leave, she anxiously picked up the soy sauce-flavored liquor and shouted loudly.

"Old man, I was wrong last time, I apologize!"

"But this time, I brought you Maotai liquor, so you have no reason not to forgive me!"

Old Man Jin quickly arrived at the gate.

He did not open the door immediately.

Just as he was hesitating about what to say, Xu Qingxue had already slipped the baijiu through the crack in the door.

"Old man, you've lived in this poor, remote place, you've never tasted soy sauce flavor in your life, have you?"

"But if you help me open the iron gate now, this bottle of Maotai liquor is yours, and you can also have the chance to experience the happiness of us upper-class people!"

Old Man Jin accepted the gift box without saying a word.

Xu Qingxue scoffed: "I thought you were so arrogant, but you still can't withstand the test of soy sauce flavor!"

Old Man Jin opened the gift box, took out the wine bottle, and threw it into the trash can.

With a "crack," the bottle shattered.

Xu Qingxue stared blankly at the scene, then roared angrily.

"What's wrong with you, old man? That's a bottle of wine worth 4,000 yuan! That's almost a month's salary for you! How can you be so ungrateful!"

"Alright, alright, if you have nothing else to say, get lost."

Old Man Jin waved his hand impatiently and picked up his tools to sweep up the fallen leaves in the courtyard.

Xu Qingxue stomped her foot in anger: "Old man, if you don't want to drink Maotai liquor, what do you want to drink!"

Old Jin stopped and said, "I'm tired of that stuff you're talking about. Now I only drink Erguotou that costs five yuan a pound."

Xu Qingxue gritted her teeth, really wanting to curse the old man as a lowly person, but she was afraid that he would drag the chair and hit her like last time.

"Fine, I won't argue with an old man like you. But since you accepted my wine, you should find the dean and have her help me transfer Xu Mo's household registration to the Xu family."

After hesitating for a moment, Old Man Jin took out his phone and contacted Dean Liu.

When Dean Liu received the call from Old Man Jin, he quickly went downstairs.

When she looked at Xu Qingxue, her eyes were devoid of any emotion.

What are you doing here?

"I'm here to help Xu Mo change his household registration."

"When you brought Xu Mo home four years ago, why didn't you transfer his household registration back as well?"

"We forgot back then!"

"Then why do you want to move his household registration back now?"

"I remember now!"

"Oh, you could forget something from four years ago, and then suddenly remember it? Are you kidding me, or are you just hypnotizing yourself?"

"Dean Liu, what do you mean!"

After being talked back to repeatedly, Xu Qingxue's expression gradually showed impatience.

Dean Liu crossed his arms and asked, "Until you answer my question, I refuse to transfer Xu Mo's household registration!"

"Now, I'll ask you a question, and you'll answer it: Why did you transfer Xu Mo's household registration back to the Xu family?"

Xu Qingxue didn't want to answer the question, but she clearly wouldn't lie.

"Because my older sister's investment company needs him. Without his assistance in managing the company, my older sister simply wouldn't be able to handle it all!"

"Is it because they can't manage it all, or because they lack the ability?"

Dean Liu's lips curled into a mocking smile.

Xu Qingxue's face turned slightly pale: "I've already taken a step back, why do you have to keep pressing the issue and make everyone lose face?"

Dean Liu turned and left.

Xu Qingxue immediately replied, "It's because my eldest sister isn't capable enough. The company's shareholders demand that she make the company profitable within a month, or they will cause trouble for her!"

“Xu Mo can solve this problem. As long as he returns to the Xu family, my eldest sister’s company can become profitable, and our Xu family’s shares will be saved!”

Dean Liu burst out laughing: "So that's why you suddenly agreed to transfer Xu Mo's household registration to the Xu family."

"What? The Xu family is almost bankrupt, and only now you're thinking of him? Where were you all this time? Why didn't you transfer his household registration to the Xu family sooner!"

Xu Qingxue gritted her teeth and said resentfully, "Dean Liu, I hope you can understand one thing!"

Dean Liu scoffed, "Speak quickly if you have something to say."

Xu Qingxue accused, "Xu Mo's lack of team spirit and inability to contribute to the family is inextricably linked to the orphanage you run!"

Dean Liu laughed in exasperation: "What does this have to do with me?"

Xu Qingxue complained, "Isn't this your fault? You adopted Xu Mo, but you didn't give him a good education. If you had told him earlier that he should know how to be grateful and not be so selfish, our Xu family might have moved his household registration back long ago!"

"Therefore, Xu Mo's current rebellious behavior and his despicable act of sending his parents to trial are inseparable from your involvement. You must take responsibility for this matter and cooperate with me to transfer Xu Mo's household registration to my Xu family so that we can discipline him strictly!"

Dean Liu looked at Xu Qingxue and was completely speechless.

Xu Qingxue gripped the iron gate tightly with both hands and said loudly, "Xu Mo is about to grow up. If we don't discipline him now, it will be too late when the day comes. Besides, I'm doing this for Xu Mo's own good. Surely you don't want to see him grow up to be one of those people who tighten screws in a factory, do you?"
