Chapter 104: Resolute Recognition
"What do you mean by 'what should I do'? I will never acknowledge this daughter. There is no such scum in our Chu family!"
Before Chu's mother could say anything, Chu Siran heard his father cursing as he came into the living room.
"Hanzhe, no matter what, she is our daughter. Now that we have finally found her, we can't deny her no matter what."
"Wait a moment, you two. What's going on? Why are you two arguing? Now that you've found your sister, why don't you recognize her? No, I'm a little confused now."
Seeing that his parents were about to have a quarrel, Chu Siran quickly spoke out to stop them. Chu Hanzhe then noticed Chu Siran sitting next to him.
"Do you know who your sister is? Recognize her? Recognizing her is simply a disgrace to our Chu family!"
Chu Siran frowned, wondering who her sister was. The two elders had been talking for a long time, but no one could tell her who she was. Chu Siran looked at her mother, hoping to get the answer from her mother.
Mother Chu looked at her daughter and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's...Chu Xi."
"Who?" Chu Siran couldn't believe his ears. Chu Xi? The hostess who'd been making the headlines lately?
"No, even if Chu Xi's last name is 'Chu', that doesn't mean she's a member of our Chu family. Are you kidding me? Is she worthy of being my sister?"
"Chu Siran! Normally you have a little temper, and I can tolerate you, but no matter what, she is still your sister, and I won't allow you to say that to her."
I didn't expect my mother to be so excited, but every word she said was the truth. Chu Xi was not a good person to begin with, and wanting to enter the Chu family was simply wishful thinking.
"Are you kidding me? Chu Xi can't be a member of our Chu family. Where did you get this information? Were you tricked?"
Chu Siran really didn't believe that Chu Xi was his sister. However, if this kind of thing happened to anyone, they would not believe that their sister who had been lost for many years was actually a prostitute.
"Aren't you getting along well with Lin Yilan? Didn't she tell you about it recently?" Chu Hanzhe rubbed his eyebrows and said slowly.
"What does this have to do with Yilan? Did she already know about this?"
"Of course she knows. It was Huo Juncheng who contacted us for the paternity test with Chu Xi. Lin Yilan often stays by Huo Juncheng's side, so she couldn't have been unaware."
Oh, it turns out that Lin Yilan already knew all this, so now, only Chu Siran doesn't know about this? She asked why Lin Yilan kept dragging her to see Chu Xi these days.
She noticed Chu Siran's rejection of Chu Xi in time, but she pretended not to care and still pulled her to see Chu Xi.
Even though Chu Xi had never opened the door to see them, Lin Yilan still dragged her there several times. She had told Lin Yilan that she didn't like Chu Xi.
So that's how it is. I didn't expect that she was so open-hearted to her. Lin Yilan was nice enough, but she didn't even tell her about this. Is this what she called a friend?
Compared to finding out that his sister was Chu Xi, Lin Yilan's concealment made Chu Siran more heartbroken.
"No matter what, I will not admit that Chu Xi is my sister. My sister is definitely not that hostess!" Chu Siran yelled at Chu's mother and slammed the door and left.
She wanted to find Yilan and ask her why she knew about this matter a long time ago but didn't tell her!
"Oh, Siran!" Chu's mother wanted to stop Chu Siran from leaving, but Chu Siran moved too quickly. Just as Chu's mother was about to stop her, she had already slammed the door and walked away.
Seeing this, Chu Hanzhe sighed and said, "Let me tell you, not only will I not agree to this, but Si Ran will definitely not agree to it either."
"Whether you agree or not, she is my daughter and I will recognize her."
"Okay, you can recognize her yourself. Our Chu family doesn't acknowledge that we have such a daughter."
"Chu Hanzhe, do you have any heart? Why did our daughter disappear without a trace back then, and why has she ended up in this state now? Don't you have any idea?"
"I..." Chu Hanzhe was speechless after hearing what his mother said. To be honest, if Chu Xi was really his eldest daughter, then he was really responsible for Chu Xi's current situation.
However, there are so many industries. Even if Chu Xi did not have the protection of the Chu family over the years, she could still choose a legitimate career and do what a girl should do.
There's no way you'd go to work in a nightclub and become a well-known socialite.
Although the paternity test was right in front of him and the facts were there, Chu Hanzhe still didn't want to admit that Chu Xi was the long-lost eldest daughter of the Chu family.
"Chu Hanzhe, if you don't recognize Chu Xi, then we will divorce!"
"What do you mean?"
"It's nothing interesting. I heard that the company has a new project recently. If it is revealed now that President Chu and his wife are having marital discord, I wonder if your project will still be successful?"
Mother Chu wiped the tears that had flowed down her chin and suddenly calmed down. After all, she was from a famous family. Since Chu Hanzhe refused to accept her soft approach, she had no choice but to use force.
"You're threatening me? Are all our relationships in vain? Although our marriage was originally a business one, after so many years, we have a certain emotional foundation, right?"
"Chu Hanzhe, you have to know that ever since Chu Xi was kidnapped and you were unwilling to pay the ransom, a gap has appeared in our relationship."
"But if our Chu family had such a daughter, what would the outside world say about our Chu family?"
"So what? Chu Xi is our daughter. This is a fact that no one can change. From the moment you refused to pay the ransom, you should have expected this situation to happen."
Mother Chu paused, then continued, "If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself. Now it's good. You harmed our daughter. No matter what Chu Xi does, I will recognize her and give her the best. I will compensate our daughter well."
After saying this, Mother Chu smiled at Chu Hanzhe, a smile that was filled with unshakable majesty. Mother Chu was no weak woman. The reason she had handed over the company's power to Chu Hanzhe over the years was that she didn't want to be gossiped about by the outside world.
Moreover, she really loved Chu Hanzhe, but that didn't mean she was completely useless. After all, the Xie family was still at its peak, and she had the confidence to leave the Chu family.
However, she was only threatening Allen Chu Hanzhe. As for divorce, she had never really thought about it.
