Chapter 195: The Right Bet

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Xu family’s current situation was tumbling. The two projects could only improve the Xu family’s liquid funds a little, but it was not enough to keep them afloat.

Lu Huai had indeed promised to help the Xu family, but he did not help the Xu family to the end. Xu Lian no longer had any bargaining chips.

She returned home in a daze. Mister Xu quickly came up to her with a smile. “Did you see CEO Lu today?”

Xu Lian nodded, but her throat was a little choked.

“That’s great. I knew it. He must be interested in you. It’s near impossible for him to ignore our family.” Mister Xu was still very happy.

The next second, Xu Lian’s words almost caused her father a heart attack. “He only promised to help us with two projects. He didn’t care about anything else. Let’s think of another way to do this.”

This was already the best she could get for her family. She had really tried her best. She did not want to go against Lu Huai again. It was too terrifying.

“Only two projects?” Mister Xu glared at her. “Didn’t he support the Xu family before this? Why did he say to only support only two projects? Do you know that if the Lu family doesn’t cooperate with us, the other businesses won’t continue to cooperate either? This… This won’t do!”

He pushed Xu Lian to the door. “Ask him again. Didn’t you say that you helped him a few years ago? He should return the favor!”

Lu Huai’s contemptuous expression appeared in Xu Lian’s mind, causing her to shiver. She had only helped him up, was that really considered helping? Lu Huai was already being merciful by not killing them all.

Mister Xu sensed that something had happened.

He tapped Xu Lian’s head in disappointment. “All you do is get spoiled. Why can’t you restrain Lu Huai? If you become Madam Lu, no one would dare touch the Xu family! You’re useless! All daughters are trash! Go and dress like a lady. 1’11 contact Chairman Zhao tonight. 1 know he likes you. As long as you marry him…”

“Are you crazy?!” Xu Lian roared, “Chairman Zhao is two years older than you! 1’11 be like your aunt if I marry him!”

Xu Lian felt disgusted when she thought of that ugly and fat Chairman Zhao.

If it wasn’t because her father was forcing her to marry an old man, she would not have turned to Lu Huai for help.

However, Mister Xu’s eyes were already red. “As long as the Xu family can be saved, I’ll call you whatever 1 need to!”

Xu Lian looked at him in disbelief. Her tears flowed down unknowingly. Then, she quickly turned around and ran out of the door.

It was only at this moment that she understood that if she could get Lu Huai to help, she would have been seen as a filial daughter.

If she couldn’t, she would have to become the sacrifice of the family. Her family did not care who she had to marry.

Xu Lian walked blindly on the street. When she saw farmers selling their agricultural products, she immediately thought of Pei Xin.

Pei Xin was clearly a fake heiress. She was a woman who had been in prison and had given birth to a bastard child. How could Lu Huai be that good to her?

Xu Lian narrowed her eyes and thought to herself. ‘The enemy of my enemy is my friend.’ If it wasn’t for Pei Xin, she wouldn’t be in such a miserable state now. Ling Xue was also a victim to Pei Xin.

Her eyes finally lit up with this thought. With the Ling family’s help, the Xu family’s crisis could be resolved.

She and her friends in the circle found out the hospital where Ling Xue was at and bought a fruit basket to visit Ling Xue in the ward.Thɪs chapter is updated by ɴoᴠel ꜰɪre.nᴇt

“Miss Xu?” Ling Xue looked at her in surprise. “Are you here to see me?”

Xu Lian nodded, then shook her head. “I’m here to visit a friend. I heard that you were here too, so 1 came over.”

The two of them had only spoken a few times, so her excuse was quite far-fetched.

However, Ling Xue did not find it strange at all. The circle of the upper class was tight knit. She had also heard about Xu Lian’s matter. Seeing that Xu Lian had come to look for her, Ling Xue could roughly guess her purpose of being here.

“Miss Xu, you’re too polite. I haven’t been doing that well physically, so I don’t go out often. It’s nice to know that you thought of me.” Ling Xue looked disappointed. “1 haven’t had a good life since 1 was young, and my health is deteriorating. Unlike Pei Xin, who has had a good life since she was young. Even when she got out of prison, Lu Huai kept helping her for some reason.”

At the mention of Pei Xin, Xu Lian’s blood started to boil. She felt that she had made the right bet. As expected, Ling Xue hated Pei Xin.

She quickly sat by Ling Xue’s bed. “Yeah, she really is detestable. Not only did she steal your status and life, but she also harmed the Xu family.. Why should she get to live so comfortably now?”
