Chapter 70 She is always my daughter in name only
"No need, just leave the inheritance to someone else." Chu Ci refused calmly.
Once the money was in her name, she couldn't use it.
Chu Ci only planned to eat and drink for free at the Chu family while Old Man Chu was still alive.
After Mr. Chu left, she left.
Chu Ci's reaction was completely different from what Mr. Chu had expected.
No excitement, no joy, just very cold.
"If you are really not interested in my inheritance, why are you willing to come back?" Old Master Chu obviously didn't believe Chu Ci's statement that he didn't want the inheritance.
Chu Ci couldn't explain this problem in detail to Mr. Chu.
Chu Ci did not explain any more. Old Master Chu smiled and said, "You don't have to hide it. There is nothing wrong with wanting my property. Now everyone in my family wants my property. As long as you have the ability, I will not give you less of your share."
Old Master Chu actually knew that everyone in his family was hoping that he would die soon so that they could divide up his inheritance.
The problem is that none of them have that ability.
Chu Ci said: "If you take good care of yourself, your property will always be your property and will not become an inheritance."
Chu Ci had no grudges against Old Man Chu and had no expectation of his death.
Mr. Chu said: "I am very pleased that you think of me this way."
Old Master Chu obviously misunderstood Chu Ci's meaning again. He thought she was concerned about him.
Old Master Chu looked at Chu Ci, and the figure of another person inexplicably appeared in front of him.
In an instant, the past came flooding back like a tide.
Unconsciously, my eyes became moist.
After Chu Ci left, Mr. Chu asked the old butler to take out an old mahogany box from his safe.
After opening it, there were some old items inside.
Among them is an old photo.
The woman in the photo is noble and elegant, with a gentle smile on her face.
The woman's face is almost identical to Chu Ci's today.
When they met, she was a lady from a prominent family, and he was just a poor boy.
Later they got married and had a son, and then...
The past flashed back in my mind like a kaleidoscope.
Old Master Chu's old hand stroked the photo.
Mr. Chu said to the photo, "You and Chengxian both resent me, right? When I go to the underground, you probably won't want to see me, right?"
She and their only son both passed away early.

Knowing that Chu Ci had gotten good grades, Chu Yuheng did not show as much happiness as Meng Qingyan.
Seeing his wife happily taking care of Chu Ci.
Chu Yuheng's expression became increasingly gloomy.
After Meng Qingyan instructed the servants at home to prepare some tonic for Chu Ci, she turned around and saw Chu Yuheng, who was sitting in the living room with a gloomy face.
In an instant, the smile on his face disappeared.
"Yuheng, I..." Meng Qingyan hesitated to speak, looking apologetic.
"It's okay. Dad values our children's studies. If she performs well, we will also be proud." Although he was not happy, Chu Yuheng could only accept it for the time being.
No matter what, Chu Ci is always his daughter in name only.
It's better for her to behave well than for her to discredit him.
Perhaps Chu Ci could help him get more of the old man's inheritance, which would be beneficial to him.
Hearing Chu Yuheng say this, Meng Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Yuheng then said to Meng Qingyan, "Keep your eyes on her. She should keep up her good grades."
"Yes, I will." Meng Qingyan was very happy that her husband thought so.
