“Is that so? Then I should be thanking you. I really can’t ever hope to be part of the Xia clan. Please go back.” Zhao Chuchu smiled. “Have a safe trip.”

“Y -you…”

Xia Chenglan couldn’t find the words to yell back again.

She glared at Zhao Chuchu as if she wanted to rip the lady to pieces.

After a while, Xia Chenglan finally scolded, “Zhao Chuchu, if I want to, I can ruin your entire reputation! Do you want to live like that? Where everyone Imows how low you are and despises you?

Zhao Chuchu met the woman’s glare. “They are just baseless rumors, after all. Do what you want. Consider it my loss if I get scared. But remember that if you can’t kill me with that, it’ll be my turn to make your life a living hell.”

Zhao Chuchu’s tone was as cold as it could get, and her glare was much sharper than before.

Xia Chenglan was intimidated by that and took a step back without thinking.

Zhao Chuchu continued, “You aren’t even young anymore. Can you think of the consequences before you do something? You can use the Xia clan to bully other people, but not me. I know what your clan is plotting here.”

“Miss, she was just worried about you. She just wants you to go back to see your grandfather. She means no harm.” Lu Ming quickly stepped in.

Zhao Chuchu turned. “She’s already old enough to be a grandmother. She herself knows if she’s coming with ill intentions or not. There’s no need for a butler to help her. What are you, her dad? There’s no need for you to do that. Also, let me remind you that I have nothing to do with the Zhao clan and not your Xia clan, either! Stop trying to use my responsibility to force me. That won’t work. You guys weren’t here when my mom had no money for her medication, and you guys weren’t here when my life was hard, either. Now that I’ve become a doctor, you guys suddenly come out of nowhere. Do you think I still owe you guys something? My mom and dad loved each other a lot as well. She never mentioned the Xia clan to me. If I were to look into this, you guys could have forced my mom out! I should be exacting my revenge on the Xia clan instead!”

Lu Ming and Xia Chenglan were both taken aback when they heard that.

Zhao Chuc.hu had openly exposed their secret.

The lady noticed their reaction and grinned.

“Since you have left the Zhao clan, you should still have a family to lean on. The Xia clan can be your best supporter. Old Mr. Xia also felt bad for not helping you in the past and asked me to bring you home. He just wants to make up for that.”

Lu Ming had to force himself to say that. Even he wasn’t arrogant enough not to have a guilty conscience.

It was all because Zhao Chuchu had previously visited the Xia clan.

Even if she didn’t know everything about the clan, she would’ve still found out

“Make up or use me? I’ve frequented your clan enough to know how rotten it is. Even I’m ashamed.”

“Zhao Chuchu! Enough is enough!” Xia Chenglan was already at her limit after being humiliated by Zhao Chuchu. “You should be grateful that we are willing to take you back! Do you think that you’re something just because you have some medical knowledge and that you happen to save a few people? If you don’t have the Xia clan backing you up, you’ll never become successful! You’ll never know what riches are or how the world works!”

Zhao Chuchu grinned. “Well, I don’t need you to show me that. In the end, I’m still legally married to my husband. Even if my life is a little hard, I still have a good reputation. Have you ever heard of the saying that even if you’re legally married, you will only be considered a lover once you’ve eloped?”

That saying was directed at Xia Chenglan, and it made her lose her mind. She pointed at the lady and yelled, “You bitch! I’ll…”

Before she could even finish a sentence, a loud slap echoed throughout the garden.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Xia Chenglan held her burning cheek and looked at Zhao Chuchu.

“It’s time to teach that foul mouth of yours a lesson. You should learn that there are people in this world you can’t offend. You don’t stand above everyone else.” Zhao Chuchu waved her hand around and slapped Xia Chenglan again. “You should be happy that it’s illegal to kill people here. Would you still be yapping around here if I could kill you?”

The killing intent from Zhao Chuchu’s eyes was so intense that Xia Chenglan had to gasp for air.

Zhao Chuchu paused for a second. “Even the Zhao clan can’t do anything about me. So who do you guys think you are? If you don’t want to die, then get lost. Or I’ll make you wish that I’d killed you instead.”

“Y-you! How dare you hit your elder?”

“What elder?” Zhao Chuchu laughed and leaned forward to whisper, “Are you perhaps referring to yourself? Don’t you clearly know that my mom is actually your aunt? Are you really trying to threaten me with this? Go back and tell Xia Songquan that he should be happy that I’m already showing him enough respect by not exacting my revenge on your entire clan.”

Xia Chenglan’s face turned pale, and she jumped back. She could not believe that Zhao Chuchu knew about that.

That could be used to threaten Zhao Chuchu, but there was a catch. Zhao Chuchu had to be worried about ruining her reputation for that to work.

However, Zhao Chuchu had made it clear that she wasn’t afraid of the Xia clan using that against her. She could even use that to ruin the entire clan’s reputation.

Xia Chenglan didn’t want to believe that Zhao Chuchu would do that, but her reasoning told her that Zhao Chuchu would do that if needed.

When words of her elopement got out, there would be no place for her left in Guangqing Province.

“I’m warning you; if you come and mess with me again, I’ll have the Yuan clan take care of the Xia clan. So let’s see if the rich life you just mentioned will still be there or not.” Zhao Chuchu smiled, but it was a dangerous smile.

Xia Chenglan couldn’t help but shiver.

Lu Ming had the same reaction as well.

Zhao Chuchu didn’t lower her voice too much when she said that) and Lu Ming could hear her.

Her words had completely ruined their plan.

They thought that taking care of Zhao Chuchu would be easy.

Lu Ming always thought that a lady who grew up in a village, no matter how good she was at medicine, would still look forward to living a lavish life.

It was clear that he was wrong.

If Lu Ming could still not see the ill-intent Zhao Chuchu had when she visited the Xia clan as Miss Lin, then he should quit as the butler.

“You knew about everything?” Lu Ming stared at Zhao Chuchu.

“What does your gut say?” Zhao Chuchu asked.

The pressure Lu Ming felt from Zhao Chuchu was way stronger than Xia Songquan.

He could not understand why a lady who grew up in a village could be so hard to take care of.

Compared to the ladies of the Xia clan, Lu Ming could clearly feel that Zhao Chuchu was not someone he could handle..
