Hearing Chu Zhiruo's blabbering words, Chu Mengyao suddenly felt that she was so unfamiliar, not at all like the aunt in her memories who was filled with warmth and care for him. At this moment, her aunt seemed to be selfless, with only benefits in her eyes, a mere ice-cold businessman who only wanted profits.
”Aunt, I won't marry Wu Haoran.” Mengyao raised her head to look at Chu Zhiruo. Her eyes were slightly cold, but her tone was extremely resolute. After saying that, she stood up, wanting to leave.
”Stop!” Chu Zhiruo's voice was somewhat ear-piercing.
Chu Mengyao stopped, she did not turn back, and her tone was still extremely unyielding, ”Anyway, I won't marry Wu Haoran.”
Chu Zhiruo's expression immediately changed, her tone became stiff, ”If you don't want to marry Haoran, then you might as well. At worst, your Chu's will go bankrupt, and we'll carry a large amount of debts and live on the streets together.” After saying that, she slowed down her tone, ”You can't really not care about the arrival of that day, right? At that time, you will no longer be the young miss of the Chu family. You will no longer have a life of living without food or clothing, and you will be willful in painting. ”You might be naive enough to think that you could sell paintings or play cellos, but have you ever thought that if those videos of yours were posted online, you would also become infamous? No one would buy your paintings, no one would ask you to play cello, no one would even hire you …”
”You really have a video?” Hearing Chu Zhiruo's words, Mengyao felt that his aunt had become very unfamiliar, and her heart had become very cold. Although she already knew that Chu Zhiruo's words weren't true, she didn't want to expose her. But Chu Zhiruo actually dared to threaten him with the video, this was too disappointing.
”Of course, you should know about Xie Nana's situation the best. Mengyao, with a thought, you could either be a heaven or a hell. ” Chu Zhiruo's tone was still stiff.
”Will you put it online?” Chu Mengyao slowly raised her head and looked at Chu Zhiruo's clearly very familiar but somehow unfamiliar face.
”This will naturally depend on how you choose.” Chu Zhiruo's face was extremely ugly.
”Aunt, I've lived with you for fourteen years. ”Although I'm calling you auntie, in my heart, you're no different from my mother. I'm also your niece, and now you're treating me like this to force me?” Chu Mengyao's tears slowly streamed down.
Chu Zhiruo's expression was a little awkward as she said awkwardly, ”This is also something that I have no choice in. If you agreed to this matter so readily, then why would I do this …”
With regards to Chu Zhiruo, she suddenly felt tired and didn't want to continue speaking, ”Go do what you want, but I can only tell you that I absolutely won't marry Wu Haoran.”
Chu Zhiruo looked at her in shock, ”Aren't you afraid that …”
Chu Mengyao laughed bitterly, ”What, is it those videos?”
Hearing Mengyao's resolute rejection, Chu Zhiruo was exceptionally furious, ”I've said everything, but you're still going to say it like this. I finally know, you are just an ungrateful bastard, blindly raising you for so many years. Right now, your Chu's is facing a crisis, and you are still only concerned about yourself.
”Do you really think of me as your niece? In front of benefits, I'm just a bargaining chip!” Chu Mengyao could not help but retort, and her tears could not stop flowing, ”If you truly love and care for me, and love me dearly, as long as I am your niece, then you will definitely not use my marriage as a trade, and even more so not lie to me, and use my so-called video to threaten me.”
Hearing Chu Mengyao's accusation, Chu Zhiruo flew into a rage out of embarrassment, ”You've disappointed me too much, you actually doubted me.”
”I am also very disappointed. My dearest aunt, the only family in the world actually lied to me and threatened me!” Chu Mengyao was too sad, and her voice was broken.
Hearing her words, Chu Zhiruo was very unhappy, ”What did I lie to you about? What I said was all true. It's all true.”
”You haven't seen my video, right? Not to mention that you have it. But you actually used it to threaten me? ” Chu Mengyao laughed bitterly.
Chu Zhiruo was stunned.
”There was indeed a man with me on the balcony that day, but he just kissed me. It wasn't some unsightly video you said.”
Chu Zhiruo's eyes flickered a little. She did not think that this matter would develop in such a way, and was a little surprised.
