Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Du Guoqing and Lin Xiudi were chased out the door by Du Xiaojuan that very night.

However, they weren't particularly saddened by this; on the contrary, they were secretly delighted.

One million yuan — they had never seen that much money in their entire lives!

That night, they stayed at a nearby hotel, planning to drive back to their hometown tomorrow.

There were quite a few high-end hotels nearby, but they didn't go to a high-end hotel, not even daring to ask the price; instead, they walked a good long while and found a small hotel that only cost 80 yuan a night.

After checking in, Lin Xiudi couldn't wait to call her precious son Du Jiabao:

"Jiabao, let me tell you some good news!"

"What good news? Can you not bother me? I'm playing a game right now!"

Du Jiabao's impatient voice came from the other end of the phone.

Lin Xiudi hurriedly said:

"Jiabao, we got 1 million from your sister!"

Du Jiabao was stunned:

"For real or fake? Isn't she up to her ears in debt? Where'd the 1 million come from? You better not be deceiving me!"

Lin Xiudi laughed with delight:

"Of course it's real. The money's already in your dad's account!"

Upon hearing this, Du Jiabao was also delighted and excited. He hurriedly said:

"Then hurry up and have Dad transfer 100,000 to me. I need it urgently!"

Lin Xiudi frowned with worry:

"The bank's off duty early now. I'm afraid we can't transfer it."

But Du Jiabao said:

"Then transfer it on the phone. Hurry up!"

At that time, mobile banking online transfers weren't restricted as tightly as now; transferring 100,000 or 200,000 had no limits at all. For a whitelist user like Du Xiaojuan, even transferring 1 million could arrive in seconds.

This was also the reason why she could hand over the money immediately and make them scram immediately.

However, Lin Xiudi said:

"We don't know how to operate it on the phone. What do we do? How about we transfer it to you after we get home tomorrow, okay?"

Lin Xiudi didn't feel displeasure because of Du Jiabao's demand; on the contrary, she felt a pang of guilt in her heart because she couldn't transfer the money in time.

"You two are useless. You don't even know how to use a phone! Forget it. Can't blame you either — who told you to be antiques? What time are you getting back tomorrow?"

These words from Du Jiabao showed absolutely not a shred of respect for his parents.

If it were other parents, they'd probably have broken his legs long ago.

But Lin Xiudi and Du Guoqing's spoiling of him could be said to have reached a deformed, twisted degree.

So even when scolded as useless by their own son, Lin Xiudi didn't refute at all; instead, she subconsciously apologized:

"Jiabao, it's my fault. Don't be angry, okay? We'll rush back first thing tomorrow morning!"

"Then hurry back tomorrow morning. Not talking anymore. Hanging up. Don't disturb my gaming!"

After Du Jiabao hung up on her, Lin Xiudi's face was full of worry. She sighed.

She looked very pitiful.

But a pitiful person must have hateful aspects.

Isn't Du Jiabao's current ghostly state the result of her and Du Guoqing spoiling him?

Just as Du Xiaojuan's ruthlessness toward them was also shaped by them, one hand.

So-called cause and effect — nothing exceeds this.

And at this time, on the other side.

Wang Dashan saw his parents and Second Brother off, returned to the villa, and discovered the vast hall inside was exceptionally quiet.

Du Xiaojuan's parents had already left; only Du Xiaojuan remained.

Sitting at the table, hand propping her forehead, silently shedding tears.

Personally severing ties with her parents — such a ruthless act. Even with Du Xiaojuan's strong heart, she still couldn't help but reveal her sadness.

In this world, who doesn't want to handle their relationship with their parents well?

Who doesn't want a happy family?

But reality is often cruel.

"Cutting ties" is easy to say, but doing it is like undergoing torture.

But Du Xiaojuan knew clearly in her heart: if she didn't undergo this torture, she couldn't achieve nirvana and rebirth.

"Wife, what's wrong?"

Wang Dashan walked over and asked with concern.

"I'm fine. I'm okay."

Du Xiaojuan wiped her tears dry.

"Where are your parents?"

Wang Dashan asked.

"They're gone."

"Did they do something excessive to you?"

Watching Du Xiaojuan's haggard and sorrowful expression now, Wang Dashan felt deep pity in his heart.

"I've severed ties with them; from now on, I have no parents anymore."

Du Xiaojuan spoke the truth, and her emotions, which had just barely calmed, surged uncontrollably again, like a flood bursting through a dike.

Du Xiaojuan stood up and embraced Wang Dashan, bursting into loud sobs:

"I have no parents anymore, Dashan; from now on, you are my only relative, wuwuwu……"

Wang Dashan gently patted her back, comforting her:

"Whatever decision you make, I support you; whatever you become, you are my wife."

Du Xiaojuan cried in Wang Dashan's arms for a full half hour or more before gradually calming down.

Then she and Wang Dashan detailed the process of her severing ties with her parents.

Hearing that she had given her parents one million, Wang Dashan couldn't help but sigh.

One million in cash, no matter who it was for, was not a small sum.

He felt it was too much.

But he didn't complain about anything.

Because that was money Du Xiaojuan had earned herself; she had the right to handle it herself.

But Wang Dashan couldn't help worrying for Du Xiaojuan:

"This time we gave them one million; next time they spend it all and come asking for another one million, what do we do then?"

Du Xiaojuan said:

"We've already severed ties; if they come asking for money again, I will absolutely not give it."

Wang Dashan sighed:

"If you don't give it, they'll refuse to leave, and might even forcibly move into our villa; what do we do then?"

Du Xiaojuan was speechless for a moment.

Clearly, Wang Dashan's worry was not unnecessary.

She knew her parents too well; others might not be so shameless.

But her parents might very well do such a thing.

So-called promises only work on those with a moral bottom line.

In other words, the severance statement they signed had almost no binding force on her parents.

"Then I'll sue them and send them to prison!"

Du Xiaojuan's gaze became determined.

She really could do such a thing!

"I'm afraid the police and the court will both smooth things over and attribute this matter to a civil dispute."

As the saying goes, those involved are blind; Du Xiaojuan was now right in the middle of this situation.

Although she was already calm enough, she was still swayed by her emotions.

Because she was too eager to sever ties with her parents, she hadn't thought things through as thoroughly as she should have.

Now that she had calmed down, and with Wang Dashan's reminder, she finally realized that this matter probably wouldn't end so easily.

Not giving this one million to Du Guoqing and Lin Xiudi would be fine; once given, it would only lead to greater trouble later.

Vampires are never satisfied no matter how much blood you give them.

"When they come again, I'll make other plans then."

Du Xiaojuan could only say this.

Now she could only pray in her heart that they wouldn't come again.

Wang Dashan said at this time:

"How about I talk to my Third Brother and see if he has any way; he's smarter, maybe he can come up with a countermeasure."

Du Xiaojuan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement:

"Alright, then you talk to him and see what suggestions he has."

Wang Xiaohua was not just a bookworm; he was indeed very smart. Last time, the conflict between Du Xiaojuan and Wang Zhanggen was resolved behind the scenes by Wang Xiaohua.

If it were Du Xiaojuan herself, she definitely could never have made Wang Zhanggen take the initiative to come apologize and admit his mistake.

But Wang Xiaohua did it!

Not only did he make Wang Zhanggen take the initiative to come apologize and admit his mistake, but he also made Wang Zhanggen change his attitude toward her from the heart.

So this time, if Wang Xiaohua could help come up with ideas, she felt she could definitely solve the problem.
