Now, despite the distance of a thousand miles, she inexplicably found herself missing this domineering and authoritarian man...

Could it be that after being by his side for so long, she had become habitually dependent on him and was not used to life without him?

Just then, the door creaked open, and footsteps sounded.

Could it be Xiaxia returning?

Jiayi turned around: "Xia..."

Before the second syllable could drop, Chu Xinyu stood in front of her, her delicate palm pushing forward, causing the door to slam shut with a "bang".

In front of the door, Chu Xinyu, because her hair had been messily cut, decided to chop her beloved long hair into a shoulder-length bob when she returned home. She also covered the wounds on her face, neck, and arms with a layer of white powder.

Although it temporarily hid the truth of the **** she had suffered in China, the humiliation etched deep in her heart was impossible to forget.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Chu Xinyu almost went mad, her silver teeth nearly crushed by her anger, wishing that Jiayi would end up just like her.

At this moment, she didn’t conceal the fury on her face.

Jiayi responded calmly, "What are you here for?"

Chu Xinyu, seeing her defensive stance, chuckled lightly, "As a sister, can’t I come to greet my younger sister?"

Chu Xinyu’s smile made Jiayi feel sick, and she couldn’t help but have images of Chu Xinyu and Nie Yixiao rolling in the sheets flood her mind.

"So, you’ve made your greeting? Can you leave now?" Jiayi tried to keep her tone polite.

Chu Xinyu was furious at her attitude, "Leave? Where to go? This is the Chu Family, this is my home."

Jiayi replied indifferently, "Don’t worry, once I have visited my mother, I intend to take her back to China and will not continue staying in your home."

This was her planned intention all along.

Xia Tingxuan was originally from China and because of a tragic love affair, had already spent half her life abroad in a small town, hiding her real identity and raising her daughter.

In the past, perhaps she was too weak and too young to be able to take her mom away, so she could only rely on Xuan Yu. But this time it was different—

That day when Nie Yixiao showed her the ID card, she realized she was already nineteen years old.

Last year at this time, she hadn’t yet reached adulthood.

But now, she was an adult, and after enduring this year of hardship, she believed she was definitely capable of taking good care of her mom.

If her mom was fine, she would immediately prepare to take her back to China for recuperation, severing all ties with the Chu Family, sparing herself from further insults as being called the spawn of a vixen by others! 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Chu Xinyu’s facial expression slightly changed, having known beforehand that Jiayi had returned just to see her vixen mother. Unexpectedly, Jiayi had planned everything.

Planning to leave?

If she left, who would marry the paralytic in her stead?

This cursed child would have to be able to fly away first!

The minute this cursed child stepped into the Chu Family, her mom had already ensured that the villa was tightly guarded by the family’s bodyguards.

It was all to ensure that two days later, they could smoothly marry off this girl to that paralytic!

Chu Xinyu curved her red lips, scoffing contemptuously.

Seeing that Chu Xinyu lingered, Jiayi reminded again, "It’s getting late. If you have nothing else, please leave. I need to rest now, thank you."

Her tone of sending a guest away annoyed Chu Xinyu greatly.

The former Jiayi, how could she possibly talk to herself like this?

In G City of China, she strutted around with the backing of that powerful, sky-supporting man.

In the Chu Family of S Country, what did she count for?

It was Chu Xinyu who was the princess of the Chu Family, all right!

In the morning, although Chu Xinyu had promised mommy and Nie Yixiao not to bother Jiayi anymore, the humiliation and pain she suffered from being tormented by Huo Zhenyang’s men for two days, how could she possibly forget.

Chu Xinyu no longer disguised her emotions but sneered coldly:

"Are you trying to drive me away now? Don’t forget, you are not in China anymore, Huo Zhenyang can’t protect you here, so why the act? Showing me attitude? I came to your room to talk to you in person, and you actually want to drive me away? Who do you think you are?"

Chu Xinyu, who had lived a life of privilege and purity for over twenty years, was held so high by those around her that she never knew the meaning of the word ’humiliation’.

But this time in China, from start to finish, she had felt nothing but humiliation.

If she didn’t vent now, she would surely implode!

Jiayi coldly watched Chu Xinyu’s hysterics.

She didn’t feel she had shown Chu Xinyu any attitude, wasn’t this a very polite way of dismissing a guest?

One could imagine how she had never dared to defy Chu Xinyu in the past.

Chu Xinyu was accustomed to her arrogance in Jiayi’s presence, so now she couldn’t tolerate even a hint of defiance.

Although Jiayi was no longer afraid of Chu Xinyu, she wasn’t in the mood to argue with her, trying to keep the peace: "If you have something to say to me, please just speak directly."

Chu Xinyu took a few steps forward, her beautiful, delicate features slightly twisted: "Behave yourself, don’t fantasize about seducing Brother Yixiao, you hear me? That night at the embassy, did you or did you not seek out Brother Yixiao? You and that slut of a mother are the same, with Huo Zhenyang to yourself, you still throw yourself at Brother Yixiao; such mother-daughter fox spirits, indeed like mother, like daughter—"

That day, after arguing with Brother Yixiao, she put the blame on Jiayi.

Although she believed that Brother Yixiao cared for her more, the injury on his face was undeniable – it must have been done by Huo Zhenyang!

It must have been this little slut who took the initiative to talk to Brother Yixiao, clinging to him, and when seen by Huo Zhenyang, she got what she deserved!

No sooner had the words left her mouth than Chu Xinyu’s cheek received a "smack" from a slap!

She covered the beautiful half of her face, barely able to believe Jiayi had slapped her, stunned for several seconds.

Jiayi’s almond-shaped eyes stared at her coldly.

No matter how Chu Xinyu had bullied her in the past, she would not tolerate it anymore in the future.

"Nie Yixiao used to be my boyfriend; it was you who seduced him and deliberately made me witness it. Now you act like a victim, is that amusing? I don’t care about you and him anymore; a piece of trash, recycled by your recycling station, I’m rather grateful to you! So both of you please stay away and continue loving each other, but don’t come and disgust me! I’m seducing him? If you have any charm, then keep your boyfriend in check and stop harassing me!"

She paused for a moment, then added, "And, my mommy is not necessarily the mistress. If you keep calling her a fox spirit or a slut, I will keep slapping you!"

These were doubts she had had ever since she learned her birth mother was Xia Tingxuan.

If mommy’s boyfriend at the time was her biological father, Chu Yanhan, who clearly came before Xuan Yu!

There must have been something else going on!

Without clearing up the past, she would never allow anyone to malign or insult her mommy again!

A slap and harsh words spilling from Jiayi’s mouth, all the suppressed emotions of many years were released at once.

Utterly satisfying.
