Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 272 - 271: Kicked Out

"Here’s a check for a million, as long as you never appear in front of Han Xiao again, it’s yours. I don’t think my request is unreasonable. I believe you understand this is a mother’s way of protecting her son."

A check was lightly pushed in front of Gu Xiaoqing, and Aunt Han’s eyes clearly showed disbelief in Gu Xiaoqing’s words, not trusting her at all.

What Gu Xiaoqing didn’t know was that because of the stock issues with Shanghai Yu Garden, the Han Family thought Gu Xiaoqing was trying to use Han Xiao to raise the price of Shanghai Yu Garden for her own gain.

Although Shanghai Yu Garden is indeed a stock with excellent potential, once people believe something, they hold onto that belief unwaveringly.

If they believe you’re a demon, then everything you do is suspect; if they see you as an angel, then even if you’re greedy, you’re still surrounded by celestial aura.

This is human nature.

Gu Xiaoqing picked up the check and pushed it back in front of Aunt Han.

"I don’t need the money, I’m not short of money. Just with my family’s dividends alone, I earned a million this year, so I really don’t need this money. As for whether I appear in front of Han Xiao, I can guarantee that as long as Han Xiao doesn’t appear in front of me, I absolutely won’t go to him for no reason."

Gu Xiaoqing said with a smile, not forced, but sincere.

It was the first time someone belittled her to dust; the first time money was used to insult her, it truly felt different.

Maybe this is the way of the wealthy, solving any problem in this manner—simple, direct, fast. This is the allure of money.

"Well, think it over carefully. You’re still young, doing things so unrealistically will only bring trouble," Aunt Han said gracefully, picking up her small bag and heading out.

The bodyguard behind her quickly followed.

Gu Xiaoqing sighed.

Guo Donghua sat down across from her, glanced out at the departing car, and said, "It seems Han Xiao’s mom has quite an opinion about you."

Gu Xiaoqing rubbed her face and said, "What can I do? Han Xiao, this dead guy, just won’t leave me alone. You think I don’t want to kick him out? I changed the locks, and he just found a locksmith to change them again.

I tried to kick him out. Do you think I can fight Han Xiao? With my skinny arms and legs, I’m no match for Han Xiao. I’m really being messed over by Han Xiao. Now even his mom has come to accuse me of being a seductress. Who did I ever provoke?"

Full of resentment, Gu Xiaoqing never felt in her whole life, or past life, that she had the potential to be a seductress.

How did she end up with such a label above her head?

Lu Qi thought someone was just stubborn, rigid, and unconventional, but Han Xiao’s mom didn’t consider if she herself was attractive to her son?

Why doesn’t anyone believe it?

Actually, what Gu Xiaoqing didn’t know was that it’s precisely women like her, without any particular allure, who need to use every means and strategy to latch onto a wealthy man, which is what people imagine when they think of women trying to leap up into wealthy families.

Guo Donghua shook his head, "Take care, I have a feeling this aunt is aggressive, not the type to compromise easily. She seems very threatening."

The past few months of the milk tea shop’s earnings already recouped Guo Donghua’s investment, so he wasn’t worried about anyone targeting it. But not giving Gu Xiaoqing a heads-up would be unlike him.

Moreover, just looking at Han Xiao’s spoiled behavior, it was clear the power of the Han Family wasn’t something ordinary people could handle. He was the epitome of a playboy, so the mother couldn’t be a pushover.

Gu Xiaoqing said helplessly, "What can I do? Take the check? That’s not my style either. Being wrongfully accused of being a seductress is bad enough, and now being a target for revenge, I’m really fed up. I’m going to find Han Xiao."

She stood up and walked out.

To untie the knot, you need the one who tied it.

Opening the door, Gu Xiaoqing was exasperated.

The air in the house was terrible, filled with the smell of alcohol after a hangover and thick smoke from cigarettes, making it hard to see.

Gu Xiaoqing made a call to Lu Qi, asking him to come to her place and take Han Xiao away immediately.

Lu Qi didn’t say much, but Gu Xiaoqing sensed the person on the other end was probably gloating.

Lu Qi inexplicably looked down on her, she had no idea what she owed Lu Qi in a past life.

Whenever they met, he was in full-on sarcastic mode, eager to see Gu Xiaoqing in disarray.

Resigned, she gathered the beer bottles, cans, peanut shells, and bone fragments from snacks and packed them into a garbage bag, then started sweeping up. The floor was littered with snack crumbs, cigarette butts, and ash. The ashtray was overflowing.

Tons of meal boxes and disposable chopsticks piled on the floor. She had no idea how Han Xiao could live like this.

She opened the window to let the air circulate. The room was suffocating, she couldn’t fathom how Han Xiao survived in this environment.

Fifteen minutes later, Lu Qi came up, seeing Gu Xiaoqing cleaning the place, he smirked and asked, "Where’s Han Xiao?"

Gu Xiaoqing didn’t respond, thinking "Can’t you find him yourself? I’m not a babysitter."

Lu Qi bypassed Gu Xiaoqing and opened the bedroom door, finding Han Xiao wrapped in a quilt like a caterpillar, sound asleep.

Lu Qi yanked the quilt off, "Hey, wake up."

Han Xiao didn’t even open his eyes, muttering, "Get lost."

Standing at the door, Gu Xiaoqing threatened, "Han Xiao, if you don’t get up, I’m going to douse you with cold water."

Today, come what may, she had to evict this troublemaker. The sooner he was out, the sooner she could have peace. Gu Xiaoqing wasn’t eager to see her milk tea shop close down or her family’s business caught in any trouble.

Upon hearing Gu Xiaoqing’s voice, Han Xiao finally came to his senses, opening his eyes to see Lu Qi by the bed and Gu Xiaoqing at the door. He asked curiously, "What are you two doing? I’m still sleeping."

He sat up slowly, stretching his neck left and right, his joints cracking, finally fully awake.

Gu Xiaoqing tossed all of Han Xiao’s clothes from the floor and the closet into his suitcase, zipped it up, and threw it at the door.

Han Xiao was dumbfounded.

Gu Xiaoqing had never been this fired up; she usually cared about people’s feelings.

"What are you...?"

"You need to leave now. My place is too small for a big Buddha like you."

Gu Xiaoqing showed no courtesy whatsoever.
