Chapter 1184 - 1183: The Scheming of a Petty Person

When Xia Chuyi arrived at Uncle Xia’s house, Xia Lian’er was complaining to Uncle Xia.

"Uncle, Xia Chuyi has been with you for nearly 20 years, and it’s fine if you have a good relationship with her," Xia Lian’er said, "but Xia Chengzong isn’t a child of the second branch, so why should she occupy the stuff of the second branch?"

"’Youwei,’ left in Ling County by Xia Chuyi, is obviously intended for our second branch," Xia Lian’er said confidently, "If I hadn’t returned, it wouldn’t matter, but now that I’m back, shouldn’t that shop belong to me?"

Uncle Xia couldn’t listen to this any longer. He slammed the table and said, "Enough! Didn’t you refuse to acknowledge us before when you were in Jingdong?"

"Didn’t you say over the phone you wouldn’t return when you asked for money before?" Uncle Xia, thoroughly disappointed with his niece, said, "Now that you see a chance for profit, you plan to return to the Xia Family?"

Xia Lian’er’s eyes shifted, and she said, "I was young and inexperienced before, and didn’t have any feelings for you all..."

"Now that we’ve met more often, the feelings buried in my blood suddenly surfaced," Xia Lian’er said pitifully, "Uncle, my dear uncle, don’t you trust me?"

Uncle Xia looked at Xia Lian’er’s exaggerated behavior, sighed, and did not answer.

But Aunt Xia said, "Xia Lian’er, stop pretending. You must have ulterior motives for wanting Chuyi’s shop, right?"

"Come on, do you want to sell the computer to make money?" Aunt Xia asked today, "If that’s the case, I’ll ask your uncle to give you another sum of money."

"From now on, we’ll pretend we don’t know you," Aunt Xia said, "And you shouldn’t have any designs on Chuyi again!"

Hearing this, Xia Lian’er lowered her head, somewhat displeased.

However, when she raised her head, Xia Lian’er still smiled and said, "Aunt, why would I need your money?"

"If I take back the shop, I can be self-reliant and support myself," Xia Lian’er said earnestly, looking serious.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Xia looked at Uncle Xia, then turned back to Xia Lian’er and said, "Self-reliant? You plan to open the shop? Aren’t you planning to return to the Capital City?"

Not planning to return to the Capital City?

Even if Xia Lian’er said this, Aunt Xia wouldn’t believe it.

As for Xia Lian’er?

Of course, she planned to return to Beijing!

However, after coming to Ling County and inadvertently learning that "Youwei" was under Xia Chengzong’s name, she started to have other plans.

If she could indeed get it, then Xia Lian’er could definitely walk tall in the Wang Family in the future.

So, in recent days, she’s been shamelessly trying to get her hands on the shop.

"Uncle..." Hearing Aunt Xia’s words, Xia Lian’er didn’t answer directly, but instead said to Uncle Xia, "You see, Aunt doesn’t believe me either!"

"Uncle, Aunt! You are my closest people!" Xia Lian’er began to weep.

Seeing her like this, Aunt Xia felt particularly annoyed.

This Xia Lian’er is indeed Mother Xia’s own daughter; this feigned sincerity is exactly the same.

"Alright, stop pretending here," Aunt Xia said, "No matter who you beg, it’s useless, that shop is Chuyi’s and will remain Chuyi’s!"

"I..." hearing this, Xia Lian’er wanted to argue.

At this moment, Xia Chuyi pushed the door open and said, "Aunt is right, that shop is indeed mine!"
