Withered Broken Ice Blue

Chapter 3 Collapse

At this point, flights to Beijing were delayed and many people were rushing to book hotels online.

But in the face of absolute financial resources, even if the hotel rooms are full, someone will make room for the Chi family.

Although the Chi family members don't like Chi Feiwan, in the eyes of outsiders, Chi Feiwan is the apple of the Chi family's eye.

What's more, the person who booked the hotel was Shen Linxi, who also came from a wealthy family.

Shen Linxi is also a famous designer in Haicheng's business community. If she were not a woman, her achievements would be even greater.

Moreover, Shen Linxi is a famous beauty in the socialite circle of Haicheng. Her mother is mixed-race, and she has her father's mixed-race genes. Her sapphire-like pupil color was also passed on to Chi Feiwan.

When she was young, she was the object of marriage proposal by countless young men, but such a beautiful and powerful woman was bound by a marriage contract for her whole life.

Chi Feiwan followed Uncle Li to a high-end hotel.

The spacious and bright lobby, with its gorgeous chandeliers and exquisite decorations, luxurious marble floors and tall vases, gives people a sense of luxury.

The hotel manager came out specially to receive us.

Few people in the outside world have seen Chi Feiwan.

Chi Feiwan was wearing a pink coat and skirt, with a cute bun on her head, light eyebrows, a pair of watery blue eyes, baby fat and a cherry mouth that were unique to her age. She looked so cute and charming.

Seven-year-old Chi Feiwan is undoubtedly good-looking.

It’s hard to imagine how beautiful she will be when she grows up.

"Miss, my room is right next to yours. If you want to find me, you can come next door."

Chi Feiwan sat on the bed obediently.

She began to look at the decorations in the room.

The rooms are equipped with the most luxurious fabric furniture and facilities, and the balcony is covered with a thin gauze curtain.

The hotel's luxurious private room was much better than her room.

Chi Feiwan opened his luggage, took out his pajamas and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

When I came out, the rain in South City had stopped.

The clock on the wall showed 24:, so Chi Feiwan turned off the lights and went to bed.

The faint moonlight shone through the gauze curtains, and soft sobbing sounds were heard in the room.

The next day, Chi Feiwan got up early and saw Uncle Li at the door.

She quickly washed up, and under the watchful eyes of the front desk staff, the two of them left the hotel.

The news of leaving the hotel soon reached Shen Linxi's ears.

Shen Linxi stared at the red dot on the computer screen and said slowly: "Out of sight, out of mind."

"It's so cruel to send your own daughter away." Shen Linxi felt uncomfortable listening to the boy's sarcasm.

"Your own sister is gone, wouldn't you be reluctant to let her go?" Shen Linxi exited the interface and stared at the face that was extremely similar to her husband.

Chi Shiyun closed the book and said, "I just came back from abroad."

Chi Shiyun, the eldest son of the Chi family and Chi Feiwan’s older brother, is five years older than her.

"Shi Yun, you should stay abroad. You won't be able to adapt to the education here in China in a short time if you come back now."

“The strong never complain about the environment.”

Shen Linxi took out a book from the bookshelf behind him and handed it to Chi Shiyun: "I know your grandfather's purpose for letting you return to China, but the Shiyun Chi family is not short of sons. If you don't satisfy the old man, your mother can't protect you."

Chi Shiyun sneered: "You'd better take care of your third brother."

Although the words were not made clear, they were both clear about it.

Chi Shiyun was sent to study abroad since he was a child. Shen Linxi did not have deep feelings for her eldest son. On the contrary, she loved her third son more.

Chi Feiwan and Chi Yizi are twins, a boy and a girl, and they were born prematurely.

Besides, Chi Yizi and Chi Feiwan look the most like her, so she naturally treasures Chi Yizi.

Everyone in the wealthy circle knows that Shen Linxi and Chi Yuanqing's marriage is a business marriage. There is no marriage before love, nor is there any equal strength between them.

Even if two people who are not bound by emotional bond have children, they only regard it as a mission to continue the family line.

Chi Shiyun is very much like his grandfather, cold-blooded and ruthless.

He no longer needs motherly or fatherly love. Twelve-year-old children are the most rebellious.

Chi Shiyun didn't listen to Shen Linxi's words, nor did she bother to listen.

The mother and son were competing secretly.

A warning, a disdain.

Chi Shiyun stayed in Shen Linxi's office for two hours and learned the news that Chi Feiwan had arrived in Beijing: "Chi Feiwan is only seven years old and you sent her to Beijing alone. Are you crazy?"

He thought that Shen Linxi sent Chi Feiwan away just to drive her out of the Chi family.

Shen Linxi said calmly: "This is your grandfather's arrangement. I am only responsible for execution."

"Without your acquiescence, Grandpa would not have resorted to such a desperate measure. If Grandma, who has passed away, knew about this..."

"Get out!" Shen Linxi interrupted him and pointed at the office door.

Chi Shiyun wisely shut up, put away the books on the table, put on her backpack, slammed the door and walked out of the office.

The unpleasant parting of the mother and son was also regarded as after-dinner gossip by colleagues at the company.

It was already ten o'clock when Chi Feiwan arrived in the capital.

Tall buildings rise from the ground, majestic and spectacular.

Uncle Li took Chi Feiwan to a dilapidated alley according to the address on his phone.

Due to its age, the alley has become a bit haggard, with moss-covered walls, gray and dilapidated doors, uneven stone roads, and stone archways with blurred patterns... Occasionally, a few branches of pink plum blossoms slanting outside the wall and the pure white flowers add a bit of vitality and elegance to the alley.

The houses in the alleys of Beijing are very valuable.

School district housing + a long history can be sold at sky-high prices in a prosperous city like Beijing.

Uncle Li stopped in front of a big door, opened the door ring, and Chi Feiwan stuck his head out and looked inside.

The house is made of red bricks and cement, and the roof is gray-black tiles. From a distance, the old house appears and disappears under the shade of the trees, and presents a beautiful convex view under the sunlight.

Going further inside, most of the furniture in the house is made of wood, and many of the pieces of furniture are covered with spider webs.

A one-bedroom, one-living room and one-bathroom apartment is acceptable.

But for Chi Feiwan, who lived in a big villa, the shabby furniture and dusty house were unacceptable.

Even though she was not treated well in the Chi family, this time the gap was too big.

Chi Feiwan didn't want to believe it, "Uncle Li, did we make a mistake?"

Uncle Li was still repeatedly confirming the address on his phone, and then he looked at the number and said, "Yes, that's the address the madam gave me. Not only that, she even sent me the exterior of the house. It can't be wrong."

If Uncle Li hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really wouldn't have believed that a pampered young lady would live in such a place.

Chi Feiwan wanted to escape, when Uncle Li's cell phone rang.

"Uncle Li, are you here yet?"

Uncle Li was on speakerphone. When Chi Feiwan heard her mother's voice, she immediately snatched the phone and asked loudly, "Mom, why?!"

Shen Linxi's computer already showed their location, and she understood why Chi Feiwan asked her, "Chi Feiwan, what are you yelling about? Do you know how expensive the house I found for you is?"

Chi Feiwan's eyes were red: "I would rather live in a cheap rental house than in an expensive old house."

"It's normal that this old house is dirty since we haven't lived in it for a long time. When your uncle Li cleans the house later, won't it be no different from a new one?"

"Can that be the same?!"

"It's good enough that Chi Feiwan has a place to stay."

"Mom!" There was a beep from the other end of the phone.

Shen Linxi hung up the phone.

Chi Feiwan fell into despair again, tears streaming down his face.

I don't know how many times she has cried...
