Chapter 619: My Patron is Someone Else
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As the chaos unfolded, Rong Qi watched with detached amus.e.m.e.nt, eerily reminiscent of the dramas she had seen play out before with Rong Tians.h.i.+, w.a.n.g Qing, and Rong Feiyu. It seemed all families with dark secrets shared the same playbook.
Outside, her bodyguards were nearly done wreaking havoc. They now stormed inside, ready to continue their demolition.
“No, not that vase! It’s worth a fortune!” Lu Qi’s stepmother wailed in despair.
“My piano, please, spare it!” Lu Qi’s stepsister begged, tears streaming down her face.
Lu Qi’s father, indignant, pointed a shaky finger at her. “How ungrateful can you be, Lu Qi? Remember who paved your path to success. Without me, you’d be n.o.body. Did you really think you could’ve caught Ye Shaoxian’s attention on your own?”
Unmoved, Lu Qi commanded with a chilling laugh, “Keep going. Destroy everything. I want no trace of these memories left.”
As Lu Qi’s father lunged at her in rage, Xu Yi casually stepped in, sending him staggering back, barely staying upright.
Even Xu Yi seemed surprised at his own strength. Lu Qi’s stepmother and stepsister, now facing the menacing presence of Xu Yi and Zhuang Ling, fell to their knees, quaking with fear.
Lu Qi motioned for a transparent bag to be brought over, tossing it at her father’s feet. “Here’s a parting gift. Take a look.”
Gritting his teeth, Lu Qi’s father opened the bag, his eyes widening in shock as he scanned the doc.u.ments. “What have you done to us?”
Leisurely sipping her tea, Lu Qi replied, “Oh, not much. Just had a wealthy patron buy out the family business and this villa. As of today, this is my property, so I’d appreciate it if you’d leave.”
Lu Qi’s stepmother and stepsister frantically checked the doc.u.ments, their faces draining of color as they realized the truth.
“Lu Qi, please think of your father. He’s sick. How can we be homeless?” Lu Qi’s stepmother implored, panic-stricken. “Remember who introduced you to Ye Shaoxian. Maybe this is all a big misunderstanding. Please, ask him to reconsider.”
Lu Qi’s stepsister chimed in desperately, “Yes, ask Ye Shaoxian to give the company back to Dad. You wouldn’t even know how to run it.”
Lu Qi, raising an eyebrow, asked pointedly, “And if I did, you’d treat me better?”
“Of course! Your father’s always wanted what’s best for you. Please, stop this madness,” Lu Qi’s stepmother pleaded.
“Oh, really? Then why did you lock me in a dark room, let servants beat me, and starve me? Why not send your precious younger daughter instead? Dad, care to explain? Maybe then I’ll reconsider.” Lu Qi said sarcastically.
Her father, cornered, stammered, “I-I may have been harsh, but it was for your own good. Now you’ve caught Ye Shaoxian’s eye, and he’s bought the company for you. Doesn’t that prove I was right?”
With a bitter laugh, Lu Qi revealed, “Hate to break it to you, but Ye Shaoxian isn’t my benefactor. He’s not the one behind this.”
She then displayed photos of a battered Ye Shaoxian, unraveling the story of her so-called rescue..
