Chapter 144: Chapter 144 causing trouble
Chi Luoxi returned home. After a busy day, she was exhausted. She couldn’t take a bath because of her leg injury, so she washed up and prepared to rest.
Suddenly, she heard the doorbell ringing. Who could it be at this late hour? He didn’t even make a call before coming over?
Chi Luoxi walked hesitantly to the door and peeked through the peephole. Two detestable figures were standing there.
It was her father, Chi Jianming, and her stepmother.
Chi Luoxi was stunned. What were they doing here so late at night? It definitely wasn’t anything good.
After waiting for a while, they saw that Chi Luoxi still didn’t open the door, so they kept pressing the button again.
Since they were already at her doorstep, there was no way she could hide. Chi Yuexi decided to open the door and ask them what they wanted.
“What’s the matter? It’s so late, I need to rest. ” Chi luexi opened the door slightly. She only wanted to ask them questions and did not want them to come in.
His stepmother, li Lijuan, saw Chi Luoxi’s attitude and knew that she was trying to shut her out. Thus, she pushed the door open forcefully while Chi Luoxi was not paying attention and flashed past her.
Immediately after, Chi Jianming also walked in arrogantly.
Upon seeing Chi Luoxi’s unhappy expression, li Lijuan sat on the sofa and poured herself a glass of water. She smiled at Chi Luoxi and said,”
“Although we don’t keep in contact much, they’re still your parents, so don’t be too cold to them.”
Upon hearing her stepmother’s words, Chi luexi sneered and shook her head.
“I’m tired from a busy day and want to rest early. What’s the matter?”
The stepmother’s eyes darted around, and she suddenly turned around and asked,”
“Eh? Oh, Yue Xi, didn’t I hear that your grandma was discharged from the hospital some time ago? Where are you staying now? You’ve returned to your hometown?”
Looking at her stepmother’s meddlesome face, she knew that she had no good intentions. It had been so long since her grandmother was discharged from the hospital, but they had never asked about her.
Now that her grandmother was in the hospital with a brain tumor, they had come to cause trouble.
Chi luexi thought about it and decided that she couldn’t tell them about her grandmother’s hospitalization. It would be more naggy and would only add to the trouble instead of helping. From their attitude, it didn’t seem like they cared about her grandmother.
“You don’t have to trouble yourselves with grandma. I’ll take good care of her. Even if I don’t have time, I’ll get someone to take care of her.”
Her father, Chi Jianming, who had been silent all this while, looked up at Chi Luoxi and said,”
“You should say that. After all, your grandmother took care of you the most when you were young.”
“Since there’s nothing else, you guys can go. I’m going to rest.”
Chi leixi didn’t want to waste time with them on such meaningless topics.
Li Lijuan was anxious when she heard Chi Luoxi’s order to leave. To her, she had yet to settle the important matters.
Li Lijuan had already prepared a topic of conversation, but it was hard to talk about the money. She had hit a wall several times and the Chi Luoxi now was different from the past. She didn’t seem to be so obedient.
Seeing that she would be chased away if she did not say anything, Li Zheng cleared his throat and looked at Chi yaoxi sternly.”
“I just wanted to ask, where did grandma put the 50000 Yuan that she had hidden away?”
“Private savings?”
Chi Luoxi was shocked. She had never heard her grandmother mention that she had a secret stash of money.
“I’ve never heard of grandma having a private stash of money. ”
As expected, one wouldn’t visit a temple without a reason. He had come so late at night for money. Chi Yuexi had finally seen what kind of people were obsessed with money.
“When grandma was hospitalized last time, she even mentioned that she had a private savings of 50000 Yuan. Whether you’ve heard of it or not, this 50000 Yuan was to be used to pay for the hospital fees.”
Chi yaoxi glanced at li Lijuan. She looked down on such a person who had nothing to do all day and used such tricks to cheat money.
“Since you’re asking this, I also want to ask, where did the money I gave grandma every month go? Didn’t I ask you to take them all away under the excuse of helping Grandma contact the hospital?”
Chi yaoxi’s father, Chi Jianming, said unhappily when he heard Chi yaoxi’s blunt words,”
“Chi Yuexi, don’t say such nasty things. What do you mean by snatching her away? if we don’t help grandma with her hospitalization, who will? You’re still too busy with your own matters, so I still have to wait for you, you know?”
Chi luexi had been feeling guilty about her grandmother’s hospitalization. When she heard her father mention it again, she was stunned and speechless.
Li Lijuan took the opportunity to continue,
“Do you understand now that your dad said this? Don’t make it sound so bad, what do you mean by snatching, it’s just taking it and using it!”
“Anyway, grandma still has 50000 Yuan in her private savings. Quickly take it out. The expenses last time were too big, so quickly take it out to offset the amount!”
Chi leixi shook her head. These two people were really unreasonable. How was this any different from robbery?! He even wanted to ask for 50000 Yuan.
“I’ll pay for all the hospital fees for grandma’s discharge and transfer. I’ll also make up for the hospital’s debt. Moreover, you guys helped grandma find such a lousy hospital. Fifty thousand Yuan! Don’t be delusional! Please leave, I want to rest!”
Chi luexi was angry and anxious. There were a lot of things to deal with and they had not stopped recently. These two insensible elders were even deliberately causing a scene. She walked to the main door, opened it, and let them out.
Seeing Chi Luoxi’s firm attitude, li Lijuan put her hands on her waist and stood up without any hesitation.
“Chi Luoxi! If you don’t take out the 50000 Yuan tonight, you won’t be able to rest! Let’s see who can last longer!”
This was not the first time she had met such a shameless person. Chi Luoxi was angry and anxious, so she had no choice but to call the security.
A few tall security guards came up and asked the two of them to leave.
“We can’t let this matter pass just like this! Chi Luoxi, just you wait!”
After being driven away by the security guards, her stepmother li Lijuan still turned around and shouted loudly when she was leaving.
Chi Luoxi closed the door and sighed. What was going on recently?
Unhappy things came one after another, and it was annoying and chaotic. If this continued, he would collapse.
Her grandmother was hospitalized for a brain tumor. The operation time had not been set yet. At her age, it was still unknown if it would be successful.
The little guy was in a car accident again. Fortunately, he had woken up. He was also injured. Why were there so many bloody disasters in may?
Chi luexi lay on the bed, unable to calm down for a long time.
Her phone vibrated. Chi Kexi took it and opened her WeChat. A smile appeared on her face unconsciously.
Li Jingjing sent a Goodnight message,”thanks for your hard work!” Rest early, good night and good dreams!”
This was the first time Chi leixi had received a Goodnight message from Li Jingjing before she went to bed.
This man seemed to have changed into a different person recently. From his usual cold face, he had become gentler and gentler. He even knew how to say caring words.
After thinking for a moment, Chi leixi politely replied,””Good night!” Then, he put down his phone and went to sleep.
