Chapter 992: I Don’t Mind You Humiliating Me With A Few More Billions

Editor: Henyee Translations

Fu Mingxiu and Luo Fu were left in stunned silence.

They had never imagined they would be abandoned like this.

Yan Xi’s heart ached as a hundred million yuan card was snatched from her grasp. She was devastated to realize that the tyrant in front of her was not Fu Mingxiu’s mother, but her own estranged mother, Tong Rao.

Yan Xi had believed her mother had long abandoned her, but now she found her searching for her at this moment.

After Fu Mingxiu’s cousin had thrown a check in a bid to humiliate her, Tong Rao was now retaliating with a card of her own?

Luo Fu had planned to use the script to embarrass Yan Xi, who was troubling her cousin, but she found herself unable to do so now.

Having heard many stories about Tong Rao, Luo Fu was both in awe and afraid. Though tempted by the hundred million yuan card, she feared the wrath of Tong Rao, worried it might cost her life.

Luo Fu stared at Yan Xi in disbelief. “Yan Xi, aren’t you just a minor celebrity? How did you end up being the daughter of the Tong family?”

Her previous embarrassment had been due to Gu Yang.

Fu Mingxiu was equally surprised but noted that Yan Xi’s reaction suggested she had just discovered this truth.

Yan Xi responded, “Why ask me? Ask my mother.”

At the mention of ‘mother,’ Tong Rao’s typically cold and serious demeanor softened slightly.

The previous setback with Gu Yang had brought some comfort to Tong Rao. Although she was disappointed with her biological daughter, Yan Xi fell short of her ideal heir. Tong Rao recognized that this was partly due to Yan Xi’s upbringing.

Despite this, Tong Rao felt a sense of satisfaction seeing Yan Xi’s strategic move against Tiansheng Media. After all, Yan Xi was her only child. Even if she couldn’t be the heir, Tong Rao still intended to bring her home.

Tong Rao had been informed about Yan Xi, Fu Mingxiu, and Luo Fu through her subordinates.

Though she harbored disdain for Yan Xi, Tong Rao had chosen to acknowledge her as her daughter. She might despise Yan Xi, but that didn’t mean she would allow others to humiliate her—especially not the Luo family, whom she loathed.

Tong Rao cast a cold glance at Fu Mingxiu and Luo Fu. “Take the money and leave.”

Luo Fu hesitated, afraid to take the money.

“We need to go,” she whispered urgently to Fu Mingxiu. “Cousin, this is Family Head Tong. She’s notorious for raising crocodiles!”

Fu Mingxiu stood up and addressed Tong Rao with a serious tone. “Family Head Tong, hello. I truly care about Yan Xi.”

Tong Rao responded dismissively, “I detest the Luo family above all. Be gone from my sight within a minute.”

Panicked, Luo Fu urged, “Cousin, we need to leave now!”

Fu Mingxiu turned to Yan Xi. “Yan Xi…”

Yan Xi shook her head, saying, “Master, we’re not suited for each other. Please leave quickly.”

Fu Mingxiu felt a pang of disappointment, but he was mentally prepared, so it came as no surprise.

“You have matters to attend to at home. Go ahead, and if you run into any difficulties, don’t hesitate to seek my help,” Fu Mingxiu told Yan Xi.

Having lived with the Luo family, he was well aware of Tong Rao’s domineering reputation. Previously, Tong Rao had been overbearing with Yangyang, mistakenly believing her to be a married daughter. Given that Yan Xi’s adoptive parents came from ordinary backgrounds and lacked the protection Yangyang had, it would likely be challenging for them to return to the Tong family.

“Thank you,” Yan Xi said.

Once Fu Mingxiu had left, Yan Xi’s gaze fixed on the card in Tong Rao’s hand.

Ah, a hundred million, a hundred billion. Quite a sight.

Noticing Yan Xi’s eager stare, Tong Rao quickly tucked the card away and sneered. “You’re really pathetic. A mere hundred million yuan has you willing to endure humiliation.”

Yan Xi paused, then looked at Tong Rao with a serious expression. “You’re so generous. I wouldn’t mind if you used a few hundred million more to humiliate me. Really.”
