"Don't worry, even if I were a beggar, I wouldn't ask the Chen family for alms. So, don't mess with me."
"From now on, bridges will be bridges, roads will be roads, and rivers will not interfere with each other."
Lu Siqiao's words were like an extremely sharp blade, stabbing fiercely into Chen Luoshi's heart.
She underestimated her.
"Qiaowa, some things can't be avoided just because you want to." Chen Luoshi got out of bed and smiled coldly. "The blood flowing in your veins means you can't stay out of it. If the Chen family doesn't prosper, you'll lose a powerful backing."
“Silly child, it doesn’t matter who your biological parents are. What matters is that the Chen family can provide you with a good living environment.”
"You can't stay in a poor mountain village forever. Even in City A, it greatly limits your potential."
"Come with me to the capital. I'll send you to the best private school, where there are top-notch teachers. And when you grow up, I'll send you abroad..."
She slowly bewitched him.
Lu Siqiao said calmly, "If it were before, I would definitely have longed for it. Now that I have witnessed the dirty tricks of you sisters, I have no good feelings for the Chen family anymore. Compared to the overwhelming wealth, I think it is more important to save my life."
"Let me guess why you still refuse to leave. Is it because Fang Dingding has a health problem and needs my bone marrow or something? So, when the soft approach didn't work, you resorted to the hard one?"
She mercilessly exposed the sisters' conspiracy, coldly saying, "Sorry, the Chen family has neither raised me nor given me life. I will not, and am unwilling to, help you."
Seeing Chen Luoshi's face turn ferocious and terrifying, she said again, "What, are you trying to use moral blackmail?"
"I never imagined you could be so heartless and cold-blooded at such a young age. You'll regret it when you grow up," Chen Luoshi said harshly.
Lu Siqiao smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern. I like myself as I am now. If you dare to send someone again, I'll make a big fuss about it and take it all the way to the capital."
Chen Luoshi was so angry she wanted to curse, but thinking of Fang Dingding's situation, she swallowed her anger and said, "Dingding, she's a very good child. Unlike you, who are naturally lively, she's lived in the hospital since birth. She doesn't go to school, and she doesn't even have any friends. Now her condition is even worse. If you don't help her, she will die."
"What does this have to do with me? The person who killed her was Chen Luoxia, not me!" Lu Siqiao said with amusement. "Who told Chen Luoxia to disregard her own daughter's life in order to protect her own money?"
Chen Luoshi cursed inwardly, "This child is too shrewd."
She explained, "She had no choice. If the truth came out, she would lose everything, including her reputation, money, and even the ability to protect her children."
"I never wanted to be a rich kid, and I don't need anyone's charity. I will work hard and get everything I want." Seeing that she was still stubborn, Lu Siqiao said coldly, "In short, I don't want to have anything to do with the Chen family. Don't try to morally blackmail me, I won't fall for that."
"Chova-"
At this moment, Chen Luoshi raised the mobile phone in her hand, and a gentle voice came from it.
Lu Siqiao only then realized that Chen Luoshi had secretly dialed Chen Luoxia's number.
She remained silent.
"Qiaowa, I know these years have been hard on you, and I'm so sorry." Fang Dingding's voice was gentle, carrying a comforting quality.
Just by listening to her voice, you would think she is a gentle, understanding, and otherworldly girl.
But is that really the case?
"What do you want?" Lu Siqiao asked calmly.
Fang Dingding smiled: "Don't worry, I'll have your aunt come back right away, and she won't bother you anymore."
“Okay, you better keep your word,” Lu Siqiao said without hesitation.
Fang Dingding: ...
“Qiaowa, we are family. No matter how much we try to sever ties, it’s an indelible fact. I know what Mom did was too extreme and hurt you. I just want to apologize to you on her behalf. Please, please forgive her, okay?” She then adjusted her tone, like a caring older sister, “If you want to hate someone, hate me.”
"Ever since I learned that you are my real sister, I have been looking forward to seeing you. It's just that I'm not feeling well, otherwise I would have flown to City A long time ago, and such a big misunderstanding wouldn't have happened." Fang Dingding played the family card and coaxed her gently.
Lu Siqiao said coldly, "Fang Dingding, do you dare swear to God that you didn't know Chen Luoxia wanted to kidnap me? Anyone can say nice things."
"You brat, how dare you address people like that? You have no respect for elders! Is this how Lu Mingfeng and his wife raised you?"
Chen Luoxia's furious voice came from the other end of the mobile phone; her voice was sharp and filled with dissatisfaction.
Upon hearing this voice, Lu Siqiao's heart raced and her face flushed.
She clenched her fists and demanded, "What right do you have to judge others?"
"You brat, what are you saying? Do you know how much effort I've put in all these years? Do you expect the whole family to starve with you?" Chen Luoxia said excitedly. "Your father is gone, and I'm just a woman. If I hadn't persevered all these years, I would have been devoured to the bone long ago!"
“Ms. Chen Luoxia, I did not force you to acknowledge me.” Lu Siqiao sneered. “From beginning to end, it was you who were provoking me. I was living a perfectly good life. If it weren’t for you and Huang Ling stirring up trouble behind my back, I wouldn’t have bothered with you.”
"Since you abandoned me back then, you should be prepared to never see me again!"
"When something happens, you only think of me. Do you want me to donate bone marrow, or do you want to drain my blood? What do you take me for?"
"You dare to use your status as my biological mother to criticize me? You have no right to do so."
She spoke with conviction.
The room fell silent.
Even Zhang Fei, who was guarding the door, sensed an unusual conspiracy.
This child is so pitiful.
He thought of his younger sister at home and fell silent.
"You brat! From the moment I gave birth to you, you owe me a life. I didn't raise you, but I gave you life!" Unexpectedly, Chen Luoxia retorted, "As long as you live, I am your mother!"
I've seen people who don't care about their lives, but I've never seen anyone this shameless!
Lu Siqiao said coldly, "Fine, you can publish a notice in the newspaper and prove my identity in front of everyone, then I'll call you Mom. It's not like I don't recognize you, you have to give me a chance first."
"You!" Chen Luoxia was furious, almost going crazy. "You knew it was impossible!"
“Since it’s impossible, you’re not my mother, so why should I listen to you?” Lu Siqiao said sarcastically. “Huang Ling is closer to me than I am.”
Chen Luoxia was so angry she couldn't speak.
The call ended.
