Chapter 205: The Card Was Frozen, and I Can't Go Back to the Manor Either

~8 min read 1,414 words

Zhou Yue's face was ashen as she emerged from No. 6 Courtyard, not saying a word!

She swore that if she ever mentioned remarrying in front of Lin Dazhi again in this life, she would be a dog!

Truly, those words of Lin Dazhi's just now were too humiliating! Having lived with this man for so many years, it was the first time she discovered he could be so biting and sarcastic!

"Lin Dazhi, isn't it just that you have a bit of filthy money? I don't even care for it! I just want to let you watch, without you, I will live just as well!"

Zhou Yue stood at the entrance of the residential complex, waved to hail a taxi, and told the driver to go to the Phoenix Mountain Villa District.

In the car, Zhou Yue received a call from her mother, Xie Fenglan.

"Where are you?" Xie Fenglan asked right away.

"Mom, I'm in Jiangzhou, is something the matter?" Zhou Yue asked.

"The doctor at Xiehe just came to urge payment for the hospital fees. You need to hurry and pay some more. Also, that Director Wang said that the United States has developed a new medicine with excellent results. It costs two hundred thousand per course of treatment. You need to transfer four hundred thousand over immediately to order two courses; don't delay Xiaojun's treatment!" On the other end of the phone, Xie Fenglan ordered like a machine gun.

Listening to her mother, Zhou Yue had a headache. She had a premonition when she answered the phone that it might be about money, and sure enough, it was.

Although Li Yongquan gave her five hundred thousand in pocket money every month, she had grown accustomed to spending lavishly during this time, buying designer clothes, bags, and cosmetics, and spending quite a bit of money on memberships at beauty salons. With her mother asking for so much, the balance on her card was definitely not enough.

Fortunately, she still had a high-limit credit card, which she had obtained at the bank through Li Yongquan's connections, so she could use it for an emergency.

Regardless, that was her own younger brother, so she had to take care of him.

Zhou Yue hung up the phone, opened her mobile banking app, and prepared to transfer five hundred thousand first.

As it turned out, when she performed the operation, she discovered that this card of hers had actually been frozen.

Looking at the prompt on her phone screen, Zhou Yue thought she had misread it, so she exited the app and went back in again.

This time she saw it clearly; the card was truly frozen.

She hurriedly called Li Yongquan, only to find that the number wouldn't go through!

"Beep, beep, beep~~~"

Listening to the busy signal coming from the phone, a bad premonition welled up in Zhou Yue's heart.

"Hello, we've arrived at Phoenix Mountain. The residential complex ahead doesn't allow entry, so you'll have to get off here," the driver in the front row said at this moment.

"Oh, okay." Zhou Yue paid the fare, got out of the car, and walked toward the entrance of the complex.

Arriving at the entrance, she habitually scanned her face.

"Not registered."

Looking at the information popping up on the smart recognition system screen, she thought it was a lighting issue and it hadn't recognized her properly, so she tucked her hair back and tried again.

The result was still "not registered."

Just at this moment, a woman's voice came from behind her.

"Let me try."

Zhou Yue looked back to see a woman dressed in gaudy jewelry, leading a large snow-white dog, standing behind her and looking at her with an impatient expression.

Zhou Yue felt a sense of disdain in her gaze, and this woman was overbearing, looking at her with a probing expression as well.

Zhou Yue said "excuse me," stepped aside, and the woman stepped forward to scan her face; the recognition was successful instantly, and the side gate reserved for pedestrians opened.

Seeing this opportunity, Zhou Yue hurriedly tried to follow the woman inside, but was stopped by the security guard.

"Hello, excuse me, may I ask if you are a resident here?"

The security guard was quite professional; seeing that Zhou Yue was very pretty and dressed in designer brands, he didn't say anything unpleasant.

Though, one couldn't know what he was thinking inside.

After all, she had arrived by taxi, and one had to know that every resident in this complex was picked up and dropped off in luxury cars; when would they ever arrive by taxi?

"That's right, I am the owner of Shanshui Manor No. 1. I don't know what's wrong with this system, why can't it recognize me?" Zhou Yue said with a frown.

Hearing Zhou Yue say she was the owner of Shanshui Manor, the expression on the security guard's face became even stranger.

Shanshui Manor was the property of the Li Family!

The Li Family was the number one family in Jiangzhou!

Hearing Zhou Yue's words, the expression on the security guard's face turned cautious, mixed with a hint of respect.

"Please don't be anxious, please provide your identification information, and I will help you check," the security guard said.

"Mm, okay," Zhou Yue said, and immediately reported her name, phone number, and other registration information.

Hearing her words, the security guard sat in front of the computer, entered the information, and clicked to search.

The next moment, the expression on his face became somewhat strange.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Zhou, your personal information has been deregistered," the security guard said to her after confirming it multiple times.

"Deregistered? No, I've been living here just fine, how could you deregister me?" Hearing the security guard's words, Zhou Yue immediately said anxiously.

"We aren't too sure about that either. You can try contacting the owner; only the owner has the authority to deregister," the security guard said.

"But I just called him and couldn't reach him. By the way, the owner of Shanshui Manor is Li Yongquan, Young Master Li of the Jiangzhou Li Family; you must definitely know him," Zhou Yue said anxiously. She still had many clothes, cosmetics, and bags in that villa.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Zhou, according to the data in our backend, the owner of Shanshui Manor is not Young Master Li. Did you make a mistake?" The security guard maintained basic politeness, but the way he looked at Zhou Yue was already a bit off.

"How could it not be? I've been living here for almost a month, how could I make a mistake?" Zhou Yue said urgently.

Just at this moment, Zhou Yue suddenly saw a familiar car.

A black Mercedes-Maybach with the domineering license plate of four eights; wasn't that Li Yongquan's car?

Seeing this, Zhou Yue didn't care about the security guard anymore and rushed over, blocking the car.

The automatic barrier had already lifted, and the car had started moving; Zhou Yue blocked the car regardless of the consequences and was almost hit.

However, she successfully forced the car to stop.

"Lao Liu, Lao Liu, it's me, Zhou Yue!"

Zhou Yue circled to the driver's side and patted the car window.

The window rolled down, revealing Lao Liu's familiar round face.

Only, at this moment, there was no longer the respectful smile from before on this face, but rather a hint of indifference.

"Zhou Yue, are you crazy? Why are you blocking the car for no reason? Do you not want your life anymore?" Lao Liu scolded.

"Lao Liu, I can't get through to Young Master Li on the phone. I just wanted to go home, but I don't know what happened to my information; it's been deleted. You need to tell the security guard quickly and let me in!" Zhou Yue said anxiously.

"Let you in? Into what? And 'Young Master Li'? Li Yongquan has already been crippled, don't you know? What did you just say? Go home? Is this your home? Shanshui Manor is the property of the Li Family, and Li Yongquan was only staying here temporarily. What qualification do you have to say this is your home? Move aside quickly! The young lady is still in the car. If you make the young lady unhappy, you're finished!" Lao Liu said viciously.

"You are Zhou Yue?" Just then, the rear window of the Maybach rolled down, revealing a face of peerless beauty.
