Chapter 593 - Can You Afford to Return the Debt? (2/2)

He walked back and forth anxiously. The recent times were really the worst days of his life. No matter how much he pressured them, they continued to live their lives peacefully; and he could hear their laughter every day, which made him feel even worse.

This would not do. If this continued, this family would be separated.

…

After getting her daughter to sleep, she rubbed her shoulders gently and turned to look at the still unfamiliar room. Her face darkened a little. This was a foreign country, a foreign place.

She walked to the front of the table and took out a box carefully and opened it. Inside the box was a pearl necklace with more than a hundred pearls. The pearls were of similar size and were all in order. Her fingers carefully touched the pearls in the box, and subconsciously, the scene from the past played in her head. When she finally realized it, she noticed her face was starting to get cold. She had unknowingly started crying.

She hurriedly closed the lid of the box and kept the box before wiping the tears on her face. This box was given to her by Du Jingtang, but when she opened it, she realized it was not given by him—but by Chu Lui instead. The necklace was his.

There was a note inside that said 'I destroyed your happiness with my own two hands. Now, I'll return everything to you personally. Please keep this. Just take it as a memento, okay?'

Just that, could he afford to return it?

She sat by her daughter's side and gently caressed her daughter's face. Was she really happy now? She really did not know.

There was a knock on the door, and she stood up and hurriedly walked over to open it.

She thought it was Wei Lan, but she was wrong. The person standing outside was not Wei Lan, but it was Bai Zhenfeng.

”Why, this is my house; can't I even enter the room?” Bai Zhenfeng kept a cold face on the whole time as he was never friendly towards Xia Ruoxin.

”Sure, come in.” Xia Ruoxin stood aside immediately, but she was afraid of her daughter sound asleep on the couch. She wished her daughter would not wake up now, and all the terrible scolding would just land on her alone, such that her innocent daughter would not be harmed anymore.

”Just say. How much money do you want for you to leave Gao Yi, leave my house?” Bai Zhenfeng spurted without even sitting. Towards Xia Ruoxin, he had only feelings of anger and frustration since the very start. ”Just state your price. Or do you think when you marry Gao Yi, you can take everything from the Bai family? Well, you're wrong. Even if you managed to marry Gao Yi, my Bai family fortune will never be his… and impossible to be yours. What belongs to the Bai family would only Bai Luoyin's. Only when Gao Yi marries my daughter can he inherit everything from the Bai family. If he refuses, then he could only be a measly doctor.”
