Upon hearing this, Xia Pengpeng and Xia Jianguo trembled with fear, their faces ashen, large beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads. They were filled with terror, terrified that Ye Huanhuan would order the bodyguards to break their legs as well.
Xia Jianguo pleaded with Ye Huanhuan in a trembling voice, "Huanhuan... your mother and I have raised you all these years, it hasn't been easy for us. You can't be so heartless and let them break our legs too..."
Xia Pengpeng cried uncontrollably, sobbing and saying, "Yes, sister... my dear sister, I know I was wrong... I'm an animal, I don't deserve to be called a human! I promise I'll never treat you like that again, please give me another chance to make amends..."
Ye Huanhuan coldly stopped them, saying, "Stop! I have no blood relation with you. You are not my father and brother. Don't try to get close to me!"
"Yes... Huanhuan, whatever you say goes. We're sorry, we were wrong. We shouldn't have treated you like this all these years... Please forgive us!" Xia Jianguo and Xia Pengpeng were truly filled with remorse at this moment.
Ye Huanhuan: "Don't worry, I won't break your legs. I'm back at the Xia family today for only one thing!"
"Ah! You won't break my legs anymore!" Upon hearing this, Xia Pengpeng immediately stopped crying and asked eagerly, "My dear sister, what is it you want?"
Ye Huanhuan glanced at him expressionlessly, then turned to her bodyguard and ordered, "Bring water and splash it on her to wake her up."
The person she was referring to was undoubtedly Li Qin, who was in a coma.
"Miss, there's no need for that. Watch me." The bodyguard who was holding Li Qin down pressed down hard on Li Qin's philtrum, and Li Qin woke up instantly.
"Cough cough..."
Li Qin coughed violently a few times. She stared at Ye Huanhuan with wide eyes and found that she hadn't left yet. Thinking of the terrible state of those men whose legs had been broken, her face turned pale, her eyes rolled back, and she was about to faint again.
"Hey... stop pretending to be dead! Our young lady has something to say to you. If you dare to faint again, don't blame me for being impolite."
The bodyguard's voice came through coldly, with a hint of threat.
These words struck Li Qin like a thunderbolt, instantly bringing her back to reality. Fighting the urge to faint, she looked at Ye Huanhuan with trembling eyes, tears streaming down her face like a burst dam, and pleaded in a choked voice:
“Huanhuan, it’s Mom’s fault… All these years, Mom really shouldn’t have treated you like this. Please forgive Mom, please let Mom go. Mom promises she’ll never do it again…”
"Enough!"
Ye Huanhuan didn't want to hear these hypocritical words anymore, and she ruthlessly interrupted Li Qin's pleas for mercy. She coldly addressed the three members of the Xia family:
"The reason I came back today is to tell you that from now on, you are not allowed to appear in front of me again. There is no longer any relationship between us."
"For the sake of letting me live and grow up, as long as you live your own lives well from now on, I won't ask anyone to cause you any trouble."
Then, Ye Huanhuan added, "If you insist on going your own way and think I'm still as easy to bully as before, and try to find out where I am or hang around under my nose, don't blame me for being impolite!"
After hearing Ye Huanhuan's words, the three exchanged glances and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, yes, yes... Huanhuan, as long as you let us go, we will never look for you again."
Ye Huanhuan: "Remember what you said today. If you can't do it, what awaits you will be more than just broken legs!!" Her words were full of warning.
The three members of the Xia family nodded vigorously, "We understand, Huanhuan... We absolutely mean what we say!"
"Alright," Ye Huanhuan instructed the bodyguard, "Let them go, we should be leaving!"
Seeing Ye Huanhuan preparing to turn and leave, the three members of the Xia family, now free, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Li Qin gritted her teeth but couldn't help asking Ye Huanhuan a question:
"Huanhuan...you're so rich now, shouldn't you return the one million I gave you?"
Ye Huanhuan turned around and looked at Li Qin with a sneer on her face: "Didn't I tell you that I wouldn't go back to the Xia family if you didn't give me the money? Shouldn't that money be the invitation fee for you inviting me to the Xia family?"
Li Qin choked, then immediately cried and protested, "No... Huanhuan, this money is for Pengpeng to buy a house, you can't take it with you..."
Ye Huanhuan paused, realizing that her adoptive mother still hadn't learned her lesson.
She turned around and said to the three members of the Xia family, "I think the furniture in this house is already bad enough. If you don't mind, how about making it even worse?"
Upon hearing this, the bodyguards immediately understood what Ye Huanhuan meant. They stormed back into the house, seemingly intending to really smash up the Xia family's property.
Xia Jianguo and Xia Pengpeng immediately realized what was happening and quickly pulled Li Qin to cover her mouth tightly, apologizing to Ye Huanhuan with smiles.
"Huanhuan, she's just joking. This money is your invitation fee. It's a blessing for the Xia family that you can return."
"Yes, yes, Huanhuan, my mom's lost her mind. She's getting old and likes to talk nonsense. Please don't take it to heart."
Ye Huanhuan was quite satisfied with the father and son's performance. "Well, in that case, I'll be leaving. Is there anything else you want to say?"
The father and son shook their heads frantically, "No, no, Huanhuan, take care on your journey, and come back to visit more often when you have time..."
