She flipped through her contacts, found "Butler," and dialed the number. As soon as the call was answered, she burst into tears, feeling wronged: "Butler Zhou, I'm at the villa on the hillside. Daddy changed the locks, and I can't get in. Please come and pick me up."
There was silence on the other end for a long time, but breathing could be heard. Xia Xueqing pouted and sniffed softly, worried that even the usually doting housekeeper Zhou had stopped loving her, just like her two fathers.
She put on airs, adopting the demeanor of the eldest daughter of the Xia family, and said arrogantly, "Butler Zhou, I order you to come and pick me up immediately."
Laughter suddenly came from the other end of the line, but it sounded like a woman's voice. Xia Xueqing was stunned and quickly looked at her phone to confirm that it was the housekeeper calling. She then realized that it must be the housekeeper's wife answering the phone.
"Have Butler Zhou answer the call..."
"You're Miss Xia, right?"
The woman's voice across from her was cold and her tone was strange, making her uncomfortable. Xia Xueqing immediately pictured a shrewish and mean-spirited woman in her mind, and she felt displeased, wondering how Butler Zhou could have found such a wife.
"Good to know, now hurry up and let it pass..."
"Oh, I misspoke. It should be the illegitimate daughter of the bankrupt Jin's Technology."
Xia Xueqing was stunned.
The woman gave a strange laugh, then suddenly unleashed boundless malice: "You're a jinx. Anyone who gets involved with you will suffer. My husband lost his job because of you, and my son lost his hand because of you. You married into the Huo family, and the entire Huo family went to jail. You entered the Jin family, and now the Jin family has fallen."
She gave a half-crying, half-resentful "ha," then lowered her tone: "I beg you, let whoever you want to harm, my husband and son are just ordinary people, they can't stand your cursed fate. They used to treat you well, if you have any regard for the past, then don't contact them anymore."
"beep--"
Xia Xueqing held her phone, stunned for a long time, her mind filled with the woman's words.
001 found it strange. Zhou Xiuyuan studied art and was quite well-known in the industry. In the timeline, his hand was still fine until he donated his cornea. How come it sounds like it broke so early this time?
It was later discovered that Zhou's mother had exaggerated; the injury wasn't broken, just not very flexible or effective, but for Zhou Xiuyuan, it was serious enough.
This matter could be said to be related to Xia Xueqing, or it could be said not to. It started when Di Xiu suspended her credit card, then she borrowed money from the Zhou family father and son, and finally Zhou Xiuyuan was unfortunately hit by a skateboarder while selling sketches on the street, his arm was crushed, and he almost lost his cornea again.
