Chapter 71 Instantly Kills the Scumbag Father Ten Thousand Times Over
Upon hearing this, Chi Zhenghao almost laughed out of anger.
Was he too easy to talk to?
Xia Yuhuan is becoming increasingly assertive in making demands these days!
He said, "Since it's not included in the three conditions, why should I help you? Do I owe you anything?"
Chi Zhenghao had a stern face, looking cold and unapproachable.
Xia Yuhuan pursed her lips. That's true. He really didn't owe her anything, and there was no reason for him to help her.
Fortunately, she only asked the question casually and did not place all her hopes on him.
“Xia, what do you want to do? Tell me, and I’ll take care of it for you.” Just then, Yan Hu interjected.
Upon hearing this, Xia Yuhuan's eyes lit up immediately. How could she have forgotten about Uncle Yan?
She quickly turned to look at Yan Hu, "Won't that interfere with your business, Uncle Yan?"
Yan Hu immediately shook his head: "No, don't worry, I'm on vacation today, I'm free all day."
His main goal today is to protect Xia Yuhuan from being bullied by Xia Jianyong.
Now that Xia Jianyong has left, it means his mission is complete, and the remaining time is naturally free time.
As long as Xia Yuhuan's matter isn't too difficult to achieve, he has absolutely no problem.
Upon hearing this, Xia Yuhuan immediately smiled and said, "Then I'll thank Uncle Yan in advance. I'll go get the things right away."
As she spoke, she hurried upstairs.
"Xia, slow down, be careful of your injuries," Yan Hu called out worriedly.
"I understand, Uncle Yan."
Chi Zhenghao frowned and asked Yan Hu, "Uncle Yan, she's injured? What happened?"
Yan Hu glanced at him and said indifferently, "It's nothing."
He seemed unwilling to say more.
Yan Hu's mouth is as tight as his surname. Since he won't open his mouth, no matter how Chi Zhenghao asks, he won't say anything.
Therefore, Ji Jung-ho gave up on the idea of getting an answer from him.
Not long after, Xia Yuhuan came downstairs and handed Yan Hu a piece of paper and a stack of money.
"Uncle Yan, could you please help me find a newspaper to publish this letter of severance of ties? This is the publication fee. If it's not enough, just let me know and I'll make up the difference."
"You broke off your relationship with Xia Jianyong? Then why were you just speaking up for him and telling me not to pursue the matter?" Chi Zhenghao asked in surprise.
Yan Hu ignored him, quickly glanced at the letter severing ties, and then nodded slightly: "Okay, leave this to me, I guarantee I'll handle it perfectly for you."
He then refused to take the money from Xia Yuhuan's hand and left with the letter severing ties.
Xia Yuhuan hurriedly called out to him, "Uncle Yan, take the money too."
"No need, I'll pay for it. Consider it a gift to celebrate Xia getting rid of her scumbag father and starting a new life." Yan Hu turned to look at her, a rare slight smile appearing on his lips.
Her strong facial features looked softer.
Xia Yuhuan tried to stop him, but Yan Hu dismissed her with a few words.
"Don't chase me, I'm fast, you can't catch up, and you'll only aggravate your injury."
"Take good care of your injury. Once things are done, I'll bring you the newspaper to read."
He then quickly got into his car and drove away.
Xia Yuhuan wasn't one to dwell on things, so seeing that Yan Hu was determined, she stopped pursuing him.
Anyway, she treated Yan Hu, brewed medicine for him, and made ointments for him without asking him for money. Yan Hu even paid for her to publish a letter severing ties with his family in a newspaper. She didn't feel like she was taking advantage of him or felt guilty.
That's how human relationships work; it's about giving and receiving.
"You're injured? Why are you injured? How did you get injured?" Chi Zhenghao asked Xia Yuhuan.
Xia Yuhuan was startled by his sudden words.
She rolled her eyes at him: "That's my business, why should I tell you?"
Chi Zhenghao: "..."
He pursed his lips, wanting to ask something more, but after confirming with Xia Yuhuan, he said, "You're here to see your brother. You can leave after you've seen him. I'll be home for lunch, so I don't have much to offer you."
Since Xia Yuhuan had already told him to leave, Chi Zhenghao, who wasn't thick-skinned, didn't have the nerve to stay any longer.
But as he was leaving, he said, "Your injury, do you want to see a doctor? I know a very good doctor, I..."
"I've already checked. I'm in a recovery period now, and I can take care of myself. There's no need to trouble yourself," Xia Yuhuan said calmly.
Seeing that she had no patience for him, Chi Zhenghao had no choice but to leave.
After he left, Xia Yuhuan muttered softly, "Is it because I saved him last time that he's so grateful and that's why he cares about me so much?"
"If that's the case, then Chi Zhenghao isn't such a bad person after all."
After all, Chi Zhenghao originally loathed her, but because he owed her a life-saving grace, he was able to erase his loathing and instead feel grateful to her, which shows that he has a good character.
You should know that there are plenty of ungrateful people in this world; the story of Dong Guo and the snake has always existed.
"Never mind him, I'll go brew the medicine." Xia Yuhuan muttered and turned to go to the kitchen.
That evening, the Chi family had an extra meal.
Xia Yuhuan looked at the table full of delicious food and was somewhat surprised.
"Is there some happy occasion today? Why are there so many dishes?" Xia Yuhuan asked curiously.
Aunt Zhao said with a smile, "It was my husband who called back and specifically asked me to prepare more good dishes to celebrate your happy day."
Xia Yuhuan was taken aback upon hearing this, but then realized that Chi Shaokang must have learned from Yan Hu that she had asked him to help her publish a notice in the newspaper to sever ties with her husband.
For her, completely severing ties with Xia Jianyong was indeed a joyous occasion worth celebrating.
As the two were talking, Chi Shaokang and Zhang Xianya returned from outside.
"Dad, Mom, you're back!" Xia Yuhuan said with a smile, her voice full of joy.
Like a child waiting for their parents to come home from get off work.
The two responded at the same time, and Chi Shaokang handed her a box.
"Xiao Huan, here, this is a gift for you. See if you like it," Chi Shaokang said with a smile.
Xia Yuhuan asked in surprise, "There's a gift too? What is it?"
She opened the box, and inside was a watch.
It's a very expensive Seagull brand watch these days.
"Dad, this is too expensive, I can't accept it. Why don't you give it to Mom instead?" Xia Yuhuan instinctively wanted to refuse.
Chi Shaokang didn't take it, and said indifferently, "Your mother has a watch, she doesn't need this. You are my daughter-in-law, and the entire Chi family will belong to you and Yanzhou in the future. There's no such thing as valuable or not valuable. Just accept it."
Xia Yuhuan didn't speak, but Zhang Xianya held her hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry about your dad's money. He has a high salary, he's rich, and he can afford it."
Chi Shaokang, standing to the side, looked aggrieved: "My salary is high, but I don't have any money. Every month, I give all my salary to you, and I only have a few dollars left for pocket money. This is something I bought with my secret stash of money that I've been saving for a long time."
“What your dad said is true. This watch isn’t cheap. He probably put all his savings from the past two years into it.” Zhang Xianya laughed heartily upon hearing this.
Xia Yuhuan felt even more embarrassed upon hearing this.
However, neither of them allowed her to refuse, so Xia Yuhuan had no choice but to accept it.
I couldn't help but feel a little sentimental.
Back when she first transmigrated, trying to get something from Xia Jianyong was like asking him for his life.
She managed to swindle that bicycle, and even then, she had to pay an extra sixty yuan to buy it.
Compared to her father-in-law Chi Shaokang, who noticed she didn't have a watch to tell the time without her even asking and proactively bought her one, Xia Jianyong, her biological father, truly lived up to his reputation as a scumbag father.
"Okay, then I won't stand on ceremony, thank you Dad." Xia Yuhuan didn't refuse anymore, smiling sweetly while holding her watch, completely forgetting about Xia Jianyong.
This warm moment is not the time to think about that nasty Xia Jianyong. Although she has experienced misfortune, she will never allow herself to dwell on the past. She will strive to become a better person.
"Xiao Huan, Mom also has a gift for you," Zhang Xianya said at this moment.
