Master Zhan, your daughter has gone out to catch ghosts again.

Upon hearing Jin Xi's words, Jin Dong's anger surged to the top of his head, and he immediately launched into a tirade of curses like a shrew.

"Alright, Mom, stop arguing with her. If she doesn't give us the money, we'll expose her and let everyone see how stingy this eldest daughter of the Zhan family is. We've raised her for eighteen years, and all we asked for was a little money to improve our family's life. She even insulted us and told us to get out. Is this what people who have studied so much do? They don't even understand the most basic sense of gratitude."

Jinxi laughed in exasperation! She hated being threatened more than anything!

“Jinxi, don’t listen to your brother’s nonsense. He just wants you to give him some money to ease the burden on the family. If it’s really not enough, just give us whatever you have now. Once you’ve given us a hundred million, we won’t come looking for you anymore,” the adoptive father said righteously and matter-of-factly.

"Do you think I believe it?"

She knew better than anyone what kind of people her adoptive parents and younger brother were.

She keeps saying she'll give you 100 million, but once she gets that 100 million, there's always another 100 million, and another 100 million after that, like a bottomless pit. No matter how she tries to fill it, she probably won't be able to in her lifetime.

"You... Jinxi, let me tell you, don't think that just because you're the young lady of the Zhan family, we won't dare to do anything to you. You grew up in our family, your life belongs to us! Don't push me too far, believe me or not..."

Jin Dong is young and impetuous, spouting wild words without considering the consequences, and has the fierce appearance of a gangster.

The adoptive father quickly grabbed Jin Dong, trying to calm him down.

This is the Zhan family's territory, not some underworld place.

If anything really happens to Jinxi, they definitely won't get a single penny, and they might even be sent to jail.

"What's wrong? Did my son say something wrong? Why are you stopping him from speaking? If it weren't for us, her body would be scattered somewhere. It was us who gave her life, and she's still ungrateful. She won't even take out a mere 100 million. What an ingrate we raised."

The foster mother's sharp and mean eyes pierced Jinxi fiercely.

"Who is this ingrate you're talking about?!"

Suddenly, a solemn and dignified voice came from not far away.

Turning around, I saw the entire Zhan family walking towards me in a grand procession, with Old Master Zhan holding Yoyo in his arms.

The average height of 1.9 meters and the innate sense of oppression emanating from them made the adoptive parents' family feel suffocated and breathless.

The foster mother hurried forward, chuckling annoyingly, "Hehehe, Grandpa Jinxi, you misheard. There's no such thing as an ingrate."

As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face.

Then, wiping her eyes, she sobbed, "I just can't bear to part with Jinxi, our only daughter. I always feel empty inside when she leaves our family. But seeing how happy she is in your home, I'm relieved."

“Yes, my sister has never suffered any hardship in our family. I hope you will treat her well, otherwise I will take her back to my hometown right now,” Jin Dong said.

The adoptive father laughed and said, "You're too kind. Jinxi has always had a close relationship with her mother and younger brother. They can't bear to see her suffer any injustice."

"Is that really the case?" Old Master Zhan looked at Jin Xi.

Her adoptive parents and younger brother frantically gave her meaningful glances, sometimes hoping that Jinxi would lie, sometimes warning and threatening, and sometimes cowering when they saw the Zhan family's expressions, perfectly portraying their panic and helplessness.

"No, they weren't nice to me at all!"

This was the first time Jinxi had spoken the truth, and her throat was choked with the grievances she had endured over the past eighteen years.

"You ungrateful wretch, how could you..."

The foster mother instinctively cursed and made a move to hit Jinxi, but then suddenly remembered something and stopped herself from saying the next thing she was going to say. She wanted to explain, but she didn't know how.

"not me……"

"Ungrateful wretch?" Old Master Zhan's old face flushed with anger, his eyes sharp as those of an eagle king.

"Uh...no, no, I misspoke."

"Said the wrong thing? Then these are also wrong things!"

As Zhan Weiguo spoke, he guided everyone to look at the large screen on the stage not far away.

A video appeared on the screen, showing the scene where Jinxi's adoptive parents and younger brother had just grabbed her and demanded money. Every word was crystal clear.

The adoptive parents and younger brother panicked. They opened their mouths as if to say something, but looking at them, they didn't dare to utter a single word.

Grandpa Zhan and the others didn't say anything, because it was pointless, and simply kicked their adoptive parents and Jin Dong out.

Even when out of sight, I could still hear my adoptive mother's high-sounding words.

"Are you alright?" Zhan Guiting asked with concern.

"It's nothing." Jinxi shook her head.

"Bang... bang bang bang..."

Suddenly, a dazzling display of fireworks burst across the sky.

Everyone looked up.

Nearby guests also gathered around, looking up at the dazzling fireworks that filled half the sky.

It smashed away all their unhappiness.

The adoptive parents and Jin Dong walked out of the Zhan family manor, cursing and swearing.

No matter how dazzling the fireworks were, they had no interest in stopping to admire them.

"Hello."

Suddenly, a girl blocked their way.

The three of them stared blankly at Zhan Luya.

Judging from her expensive clothes, could she be a guest of the Zhan family?

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?" the adoptive father asked.

“Oh, I know you. You’re Zhan Luya, the fake heiress of the Zhan family. I’ve seen you online,” Jin Dong said.

Zhan Luya was embarrassed when her shortcomings were exposed in public.

But now is not the time for embarrassment.

"Yes, that's right, that's me."

"Were you kicked out of the Zhan family?" Jin Dong guessed, looking at Zhan Luya who looked a bit disheveled.

Zhan Luya lowered her head and remained silent.

"This Zhan family, on the surface, is incredibly powerful, but I never expected them to be so heartless. They raised us for eighteen years, how could they just kick us out like that?" The foster mother looked at Zhan Luya's pitiful appearance, seemingly out of pity, but in reality, she was just taking the opportunity to vent her anger by scolding the Zhan family for not giving them money and kicking them out.

"And you, were you also kicked out?" Zhan Luya deliberately emphasized the words "kicked out" to amplify their hatred for the Zhan family.
