Chapter 70: 70 Please Leave

“You!” Liu Yujuan’s face turned an iron shade of green as she turned her head to look at Zhao Hai, “Zhao Hai, look at you, this is the daughter you’ve raised, completely unconcerned about your life. She lives in a villa, drives luxury cars, yet she allows you to work yourself to death!”

How could Zhao Hai not understand the meaning behind Liu Yujuan’s words, he calmly said, “I think I’ve raised my daughter very well, unlike you, who only knows how to push her own daughter to find a rich boyfriend.”

After a pause, he added, “You say my daughter doesn’t care about my life, my daughter gave me eight million for my retirement, did your daughter give you that much money?”

Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin, having bought luxury cars and moved into a villa, naturally didn’t forget about Zhao Hai.

After discussing with Xu Yang, Zhao Yuxin directly gave Zhao Hai ten million, of which two million was to pay back Zhao Hai for the house purchase money he gave Zhao Yuxin.

Originally, Zhao Hai didn’t want to take it.

After all, he had property, and his own money was sufficient, why would he need so much more.

In the end, it was after repeated persuasion from Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin that he accepted it.

His intentions were the same as Xu Yang’s parents, to not use the money themselves but to save it in the bank, and if Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin ever need it later, he would take it out for the couple.

“What! Yu Xin gave you eight million!” Liu Yujuan exclaimed, standing up in surprise.

Zhao Yulu was also surprised as she looked at Zhao Yuxin and then at Xu Yang.

If nothing unexpected had occurred, this money must have been earned by Xu Yang.

But if Xu Yang’s earnings have been used for buying houses and cars, there shouldn’t be much left, right? How could there still be eight million to give to Zhao Hai?

This made her somewhat puzzled.

“Yu Xin, you really gave your dad eight million? How could you have so much money!” Liu Yujuan asked Zhao Yuxin.

“My husband can make money,” Zhao Yuxin said proudly.

“Isn’t he just a blind cat that ran into a dead rat, made a few million by speculating on futures, and picked up a painting for fifty million? The money should have been spent on the cars and villa, right? How can there still be money left?” Liu Yujuan still found it hard to believe.

“Must be your sister who told you, right? Does that mean my husband can’t make more money?” Zhao Yuxin scoffed.

“Can still make money? Speculating on futures and picking up calligraphy and painting, that’s just a blind cat running into a dead rat, how else can he make money?” Liu Yujuan’s perception of Xu Yang was still stuck in the past.

“A blind cat running into a dead rat is just your self-deception, I know you don’t believe it, and I don’t need to prove anything to you. By the way, you played a role in my sister breaking up with Xu Yang, didn’t you? You always advised her not to be with Xu Yang. I should thank you for that. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have had the chance to be with Xu Yang,” Zhao Yuxin said sarcastically.

“You!” Liu Yujuan trembled with anger but didn’t know what to say, turning instead to Xu Yang, “Xu Yang, tell me, where else did you make money from?”

Xu Yang said indifferently, “In your eyes, my making money is just like a blind cat running into a dead rat, I don’t care, as long as you’re happy with that thought. Since Zhao Yuxin won’t tell, let’s just go with what you think is right.”

He remembered clearly how this woman looked down upon and despised him when he was with Zhao Yulu.

Since he had already broken up with Zhao Yulu, there was no need to be courteous with Liu Yujuan anymore.

In front of Liu Yujuan, he couldn’t possibly maintain the same attitude as before.

Liu Yujuan became discontent immediately, “Xu Yang, what sort of way is that to speak? After all is said and done, Yu Xin is still my daughter, I am your mother-in-law!”

Before Xu Yang could speak, Zhao Yuxin said, “Liu Yujuan, I’ve told you, I have never considered you my mother, stop shamelessly imposing that identity upon yourself!”

Liu Yujuan was furious but did not argue further with Zhao Yuxin, knowing it was useless to say any more.

Zhao Yuxin’s view of her had taken deep root.

Recalling the purpose of her visit today, she then turned to Zhao Hai, “Zhao Hai, will you rent the store or not?”

Zhao Hai said indifferently, “I’ve already made myself very clear, I would rent to anyone but you.”

Liu Yujuan took a deep breath and said, “Zhao Hai, you should be very clear that Yu Lu and I came here today because Tian Cheng sent us. You know what Tian Cheng’s temperament is like—if we don’t persuade you to rent the storefront to us, when we return to the Yang family, Tian Cheng will not give us a good look. I don’t care for myself, but can you bear to see Yu Lu being treated unfairly? After all, Yu Lu is your daughter, isn’t she?”

This was playing the daughter card.

Zhao Hai found it amusing, “Liu Yujuan, how can you have the face to say such things? If you don’t want Yu Lu to be wronged, you can just take Yu Lu and leave Tian Cheng.”

Liu Yujuan’s face turned ugly as she said to Zhao Yulu, “Yu Lu, your father is so heartless. I can’t communicate with him anymore. You talk to him.”

Zhao Yulu was about to speak when Zhao Yuxin preempted her, “Sis, I don’t care what you do, but if you take this woman’s side and say wrong things about our dad, don’t blame me for turning against you!”

Zhao Yulu opened her mouth but ultimately didn’t speak.

She still owed Zhao Yuxin two million, and when facing Zhao Yuxin, she clearly lacked confidence.

Moreover, she came today because she was forced.

Since that was the case, she might as well stay quiet.

Anyway, since she had already come, Tian Cheng probably wouldn’t say anything.

But Liu Yujuan was furious, “Zhao Yuxin, is this how you talk to your sister?”

Zhao Yuxin retorted, “How I talk is none of your business.”

“You…” Liu Yujuan was again infuriated.

Her visit today had indeed been exasperating.

Whether it was Zhao Hai, or Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin, most of the things they said were infuriating to her.

Zhao Hai said coldly, “Stop talking. My restaurant does not welcome you. Please leave immediately!”

“Fine, fine, fine, Zhao Hai, you will regret this!” Liu Yujuan couldn’t stand it anymore and got up to leave.

Zhao Yulu also stood up and left.

The mother and daughter walked out of the restaurant.

“This Zhao Hai, as well as Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin, they’re really infuriating!”

Liu Yujuan was still beside herself with anger.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Mom, this outcome was foreseeable. You know better than anyone about the issues between Dad and Tian Cheng. How could Dad possibly rent the storefront to Tian Cheng?”

“Besides, Jing Sheng’s suggestion to rent Dad’s storefront was likely meant to mock us and make us uncomfortable in approaching Dad.”

“I don’t believe that Tian Cheng couldn’t see this. He probably sent us here for that reason as well.”

Zhao Yulu still referred to Zhao Hai as Dad and called Tian Cheng by his name.

Unless she had no choice, she would not call Tian Cheng ‘Dad’ nor would she call Yang Jingsheng ‘Brother’.

“Even if that’s the case, what can we do? We still have to come here.” Liu Yujuan was also very displeased about this.

However, she had to rely on Tian Cheng for her livelihood, so she had no choice but to do certain things.

“Anyway, since we came, Tian Cheng should know that Dad would not rent the store to us. Let’s just check out the other stores around here and give Tian Cheng a reference. That should be enough to carry out the task he gave us,” said Zhao Yulu.

“That’s all we can do,” Liu Yujuan nodded, and with Zhao Yulu, they toured the vicinity. They discovered several stores up for transfer, and two of them seemed suitable.

After looking around, they left.
