"Okay, get up!"

Chu's father also came over and reached out to help Xu Jiaqian up.

"Thank you uncle!"

Xu Jiaqian thanked Chu's father like a little white rabbit. When Chu's father saw Xu Jiaqian's frightened appearance, he paused for a moment.

Finally, he touched his nose, nodded slightly, let go of her hand, and left.

Chu's mother looked on without any particular expression.

Before her family fell into poverty, Xu Jiaqian always wore heavy makeup and dressed very fashionably, giving off a queen-like and sharp vibe.

Even without makeup, her bare face looks quite fresh, and she appears to be a few years younger than her actual age.

Seeing her like this, Chu's mother felt even less that anything was wrong.

"Alright... tidy this up, I'm going out to play cards!"

In an instant, Chu's mother seemed to stop feeling stifled, as if she wouldn't care at all about Chu Jin leaving.

I put on my coat, grabbed my handbag, and went out.

"Ah……"

Xu Jiaqian sneered and walked to the sofa to sit down.

To put it nicely, we're keeping her here; to put it bluntly, are we keeping her as a maid?

At this moment, a series of sounds came from upstairs. Xu Jiaqian's eyes flickered slightly, and she knelt on the carpet to tidy up the cups on the coffee table.

The people upstairs also came down.

Xu Jiaqian glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw that the person getting off was Chu's father.

At that moment, she lowered her head, revealing her neck.

"Qianqian...why are you doing these things!"

Seeing her doing something, Chu's father was slightly taken aback. He walked up to her and helped her up.

"Uncle... I already feel bad for staying here, and I'll feel really guilty if I don't do something!"

Xu Jiaqian had tears hanging from her eyelashes, looking pitiful.

His father felt a pang of heartache at his daughter's frail appearance.

Actually, Chu's father is quite well-preserved. Although he is almost fifty years old, he still has the air of a successful person. In addition, men don't usually look old.

Especially for a pampered man like him.

He looks to be in his late thirties at that moment!

He held Xu Jiaqian's hand, and Xu Jiaqian's hand trembled slightly in his palm.

Even though she had her head down, she could still see his trembling eyelashes.

Chu's father couldn't help but swallow hard; the scent of that young girl still lingered in his nostrils.

For a moment, he was a little distracted, after all, Chu's mother had the traits of a tigress and liked to put on airs of a noblewoman in public.

Before, when the family fell into poverty, all I could hear was her jingling.

Like a fly, buzzing around and annoyingly persistent.

Xu Jiaqian lowered her head, a smile playing on her lips, thinking to herself that she had taken the bait.

She spoke in a very soft voice.

"Actually... I've admired Uncle since I was little..."

"Yeah!?"

Upon hearing Xu Jiaqian's words, Chu's father couldn't help but smile knowingly and pulled Xu Jiaqian to sit down on the sofa.

"Yes!"

Xu Jiaqian raised her head and smiled slightly.

"Qianqian... don't worry, you'll be living with us from now on. Just tell me whatever you need!"

As Chu's father spoke, he gently stroked Xu Jiaqian's hand.

This girl's hands were different from Chu's mother's; they were soft and smooth, unlike Chu's mother, who spent so much money on skincare.
