Chapter 216 Are you really sure they still have money to give you?
Chapter 216 Are you really sure they still have money to give you?
Lu Anbo was completely dumbfounded, his eyes filled with bewilderment.
He had never seen Kong Xinyu speak to him in such a nasty and hurtful manner.
A spineless, mama's boy?
Xiaoyu had always said that his behavior was a sign of filial piety and understanding, that he was special, and that he was different from other men.
Xiaoyu also said that although he was good in this way, he was still a bit too obedient to his mother. If he could be more assertive and braver in fighting for what he wanted, he would be a perfect man.
This is also why Lu Anbo dared to defy Su Xiaowan for Kong Xinyu's sake today; he wanted to become the perfect man that Kong Xinyu spoke of.
But now, he has done everything for her, so why is she still mocking him?
"Xiaoyu?" Lu Anbo still couldn't believe it. "You're just saying that out of anger, aren't you?"
"Did I say anything wrong? Don't you know who you are? I've been lying to you for so long and saying so many insincere things, it really disgusted me. You didn't actually believe it, did you?"
Kong Xinyu was ready to completely break ties with them and no longer intended to hide her true thoughts.
Since there's no way to salvage the situation, at least we should give them a good dressing down.
The main idea is that if they can't have a good time, they shouldn't expect to have a good time either.
"Calling you a spineless mama's boy is too kind. I've never seen such a weakling in my life. What are you even doing looking for a girlfriend? Just stay with your mother for the rest of your life and stop ruining innocent girls!"
Lu Anbo was stung by her mockery, and his face turned even paler.
But Kong Xinyu had no intention of stopping there. She looked at Su Xiaowan and stated her demands.
"Su Xiaowan, I don't want to live with you anymore. I'm afraid I'll feel like throwing up whenever I see you again."
"Give me back the property my father left me, and from now on, we'll have nothing to do with each other and will never have any relationship again."
"Otherwise... you know the consequences, right?"
Su Xiaowan thought to herself that she and Pei Jinhao had gambled away all that money long ago, and even if she wanted to give it, she wouldn't be able to come up with it.
She and Pei Jinhao exchanged a guilty glance, both knowing that Kong Xinyu absolutely could not find out about this.
Kong Xinyu's words were clearly a threat to them.
Even if we have to lie, we have to get her on board first, otherwise we'll be doomed if she really goes all out and tries to take them all down with her.
For now, we'll appease her. Once we get her home, if Kong Xinyu remains so stubborn, we'll lock her up at home and prevent her from having any contact with the Pei family.
"Okay, okay, I promise you, I'll agree to anything," Su Xiaowan replied repeatedly. "Can we go home now and deal with this?"
Seeing that the other party agreed so quickly, Kong Xinyu was also a little worried that this was just a delaying tactic.
But now it seems there's no other way but to believe her for the time being. At worst, if Su Xiaowan fails to keep her promise, she can go and tell the Pei family.
Just as she was about to agree, Pei Chuyao suddenly asked her:
Are you really sure they still have money to give you?
After hearing An Ling say yesterday that Pei Jinhao and Su Xiaowan had developed a gambling addiction, she immediately sent people to investigate their financial situation.
They discovered that, just as Anling had said, they had not only lost all their assets but also accumulated various debts, owing money to every platform that offered them loans.
This is only what Pei Chuyao could find out. There must be much more that she didn't find out, especially since there are always people on the fringes of the law who lend money through illegal means in various gambling establishments. She doesn't believe that Pei Jinhao and the others didn't borrow from them.
"As far as I know, Pei Jinhao and Su Xiaowan have accumulated a lot of debt due to gambling. They've already squandered the inheritance your father left you, haven't they? Didn't you know that?"
"What...what did you say?" Upon suddenly learning the truth, Kong Xinyu simply refused to believe it.
But she noticed the momentary unease and panic on Su Xiaowan's face after hearing this, and given that she also knew about the two of them's gambling addiction, what was there to be unsure about?
"Didn't you say you wouldn't touch the money my dad left me?"
"Huh? I didn't. Don't believe everything you hear." Su Xiaowan tried to argue, but Kong Xinyu had completely given up on her.
She felt like she was going crazy, staring at Su Xiaowan in despair.
"How long have you been lying to me! Haven't you already spent that money?! Haven't you?!"
She reflected on the treatment she had received from Su Xiaowan over the years, never expecting that her long-term forbearance would result in such an outcome.
Kong Xinyu's breathing became erratic, and she roared at the culprit:
"Then what about all this time I've obeyed you, endured your insults and humiliation, and suffered so much injustice? How could you treat me like this!"
She completely lost control, rushed forward and pushed Su Xiaowan to the ground, then pounced on her and slapped her face several times, all the while cursing out nasty things, as if she wanted to return all the insults she had received from her over the years.
If it really came down to a fight, Su Xiaowan was no match for Kong Xinyu, who was a head taller than her, but unfortunately she had her son to help her.
Lu Anbo, true to his reputation as a seasoned mama's boy who once beat up his ex-girlfriend with his own mother, showed no mercy to Kong Xinyu, who was both his sister and girlfriend, upon seeing his mother being beaten. He immediately went up and pulled her away, throwing her aside.
After helping Su Xiaowan up, he didn't stop her. Instead, the mother and son rushed towards Kong Xinyu, who had fallen to the ground, ready to attack her.
Fortunately, Pei Jinhao still remembered that Kong Xinyu was his daughter, and stood in front of her to stop the aggressive mother and son.
He turned around and tried to help Kong Xinyu up. "Xiaoyu, don't get agitated. Dad can solve any problems for you. Let's go home first. We're all family. Let's not make things so ugly."
Kong Xinyu slapped his hand away and said sarcastically:
"Who says we're family! What are you pretending to be, a good person here?"
"Fine, you can solve this for me, right? Make Su Xiaowan return my property!"
"How is it your property?" Su Xiaowan tidied her messy hair. "That's the inheritance my ex-husband left to his biological daughter. You are? You have no right to inherit it at all!"
Seeing that Kong Xinyu's expression was off, Pei Jinhao quickly gave Su Xiaowan a meaningful look, and then said suggestively:
"Alright, stop making a scene. You should also shut up. This is my third sister's house. Aren't you ashamed? Go home now!"
"I'm sorry, Third Sister, we've made you laugh. We'll leave now so as not to cause you any more trouble."
But Su Xiaowan was furious, not to mention she had just been slapped several times, so how could she let it go so easily?
