Chapter 224: She Has Already Repaid the Debt of Family Love



"Maybe the Xia Zhichu before could let you control him, but the Xia Zhichu now will definitely not be so stupid! Also, since you are the one who brought Xia Zhichu here, you should clean up all the mess yourself and don't bother me anymore!"

After saying these words, Xia Zhichu didn't want to waste any more words and was about to hang up, but at this moment, a black shadow quickly approached and snatched her phone away.

Si Mochen put it to his ear, his handsome face devoid of any human warmth, and he used the attitude of a strong man to warn the person on the phone.

"If you don't want to die, keep your hands and feet clean. If I see you hurting Zhichu again, I will make sure you never stand up again in Jincheng!"

The cold tone was like being salvaged from hell, causing Shen Liang to shudder violently several times.

But he quickly returned to normal, looking inside the hospital with a cold light in his eyes.

Okay, Xia Zhichu, since I can't deal with you, then you just continue to bear the criticism from public opinion!

Shen Liang clenched his fists tightly and walked into the hospital again.

As for Si Mochen, he hung up the phone right after he finished speaking, looking down at Xia Zhichu coldly, "Don't answer his calls anymore."

Li Leng's tone didn't sound like a discussion, but rather like someone making a decision from a superior.

Xia Zhichu was frightened by his appearance and pouted a little aggrievedly.

Seeing this, Si Mochen knew that his tone was a bit harsh. He sighed softly, then touched her head to comfort her, "I don't want you to have anything to do with Shen Liang anymore. It would make me jealous!"

The love words came unexpectedly, causing Xia Zhichu to blush and hear her heart beating fast. It also made Miss Chu next to her very embarrassed. She quickly made an excuse that she had something else to do and left first, then disappeared in front of the two of them in a second.

Seeing her friend running away, Xia Zhichu blushed unbearably and punched him directly, "Tiantian is still here, can you please be more sensible?"

The man held her hand gently and said softly, "Okay, let's talk about love quietly."

His voice was very attractive, and since he was so close to her, his hot breath was all over Xia Zhichu's face, causing her heart to skip a beat.

She immediately turned her face away in panic, not daring to look him in the face.

Seeing this, Si Mochen's thin lips curled up slightly. He especially liked to see Xia Zhichu's shy look, especially when she was nervous around him. She was completely different from how she was in high school.

I used to be like a boy and was considered cute.

But at this moment, Si Mochen actually felt pity for her and hugged her again.

When the man's temperature dropped, Xia Zhichu's emotions were completely messed up, and even his speech began to become incoherent. "Yes, yes, Shen Liang just said that Xia was just hospitalized. Did you... do it?"

Shen Liang was injured twice before, all because Shen Liang made her unhappy, so Si Mochen got angry and beat him up.

Therefore, when Xia Gang was admitted to the hospital this time, Xia Zhichu's first reaction was to think of Si Mochen.

"People like this don't deserve to die!" Si Mochen did not deny it.

Xia Zhichu got the answer and looked at Si Mochen deeply for a long time. There was a hostility in the man's eyes when he said this, which was the color that she found most unfamiliar.

Xia Zhichu didn't like the aggressive Si Mochen, so she reached out and gently brushed across his frown, saying in a soft voice, "You don't have to let that kind of person dirty your hands for me. It's not worth it."

Si Mochen, however, held her hand and said seriously, "No, everything I've done for you is worth it. I've said before that as long as I'm here, I won't let anyone hurt you again, even if that person is your biological father."

"But……"

Xia Zhichu wanted to say something, but the man spoke first, "Don't worry, he's still breathing. He won't die."

After hearing this, Xia Zhichu felt relieved.

Although she hated the man, she still didn't want him to die. At least, he couldn't die at their hands.

"Although he didn't die, it was enough for him to feel the pain!" Si Mochen added at the end.

He was the one who had the man beaten up, and he was also the one who had someone call the emergency number. As for Xia's situation in the hospital just now, Si Mochen also knew it clearly.

The expensive surgery fee and the pain all over his body were enough to make Xia Gang suffer a lot.

"Let this be a lesson for him. I don't want to have anything to do with him in the future!" Xia Zhichu had no feelings for Xia Ganggang at all. From childhood to adulthood, this father had never fulfilled his responsibilities as a father and had also caused all kinds of trouble.

If it weren't for Xia Ganggang, her mother wouldn't have been so cruel to her, she wouldn't have left home so early and suffered so much, and she wouldn't have even entered the marriage hall so early.

Her life was almost ruined by this father.

She was not a saint and could not digest the shadows of the past, but she also could not do anything to harm her bloodline with her own hands. Therefore, all she could do was to avoid getting involved with them as much as possible.

After all, she has repaid the debt of family affection over the years, and she will never owe the Xia family anything again in this life.

"By the way, regarding my work that was shortlisted for the Milan Fashion Show, I plan to withdraw my qualification." Xia Zhichu suddenly remembered this and mentioned it.

She had told Lina about this, but Lina did not agree, so Xia Zhichu thought of mentioning it to Si Mochen.

After all, she was able to be shortlisted for the Milan Fashion Show thanks to Si Mochen's help behind the scenes. This honor was not won gloriously.

"Reason!" Lina did mention this to him, but recently because of Xia Zhichu's disappearance, Si Mochen was worried and had no time to deal with this matter. Now that Xia Zhichu mentioned it, Si Mochen felt it necessary to find out clearly.

Xia Zhichu pursed her lips, remained silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and then said, "Because you are the president of Peak Group, and I am your legally married wife. This honor was won by you for me."

After the quarterly show incident that day, although she fainted and didn't pay attention to the news online, she heard Chu Tiantian talk about the netizens' scolding, all of which questioned her eligibility to be nominated.

Basically everyone is saying that she was selected because of connections, and maybe even this work was designed with the help of connections.

Xia Zhichu knew she shouldn't believe these words, but when she thought about it carefully, there were so many designers in the design department of Peak Group, each of them had more experience than her, and they had won countless awards; as for her, she was just a newcomer, but she stood out among a dozen outstanding designers and stole the limelight.

Even she was questioning what she relied on.

If you think about it carefully, she just relied on her husband's big CEO status to give her a back door, allowing her to go on the design path more smoothly than others.

But doing so will not gain recognition from others and will be unfair to others!

"No, you're wrong!"

Facing Xia Zhichu's words, Si Mochen directly refuted her, "When Lina sent me your work, she said she would submit it to the Milan Fashion Show for selection. I simply helped you solve the problem of being a new designer. As for the later selection, all the candidates were selected by internationally renowned masters based on the quality of the work."

"And your work, 'Derailment,' successfully won the approval of the renowned master, Townsend. He alone persuaded the other nine judges to select your work."

Si Mochen originally didn't want to tell Xia Zhichu this, but she actually chose to give up such a good opportunity, forcing him to confess the truth.
