It marked exactly ten years since Wang Xiu father,Wang ji died a very painful death.
Wang Xiu and her family lived in a little house in the country side of Benjil city in harmony and peace. Her mother had a convenience store in front of their house while her dad was a teacher in the high school she attended.
Her little brother Wang ling was still learning in a primary school since he was barely ten years.
With the little they earned,they had no worries.
Everything was smooth,their neighborhood was also filled with love and honestly.
Wang Xiu wanted to live there forever with her family until a day came and ruined their happiness.
Back in the city of Benjil, there's a family with everything:Money, influence,fame, status, and of course media and people's support;The Zhang cooperation.
A saying goes," you can call the President daughter crazy,but do not mess with anyone in the Zhang family ".
Their history has been beyond years of Fame and influence.
The Zhang family can destroy a whole generation by snapping their fingers.
Everyone tries so hard to curry favor of the Zhang family, including the President.
The Zhang family is not like other big families, instead it's just a small family with three potential heirs.
Zhang Ber and Da Xia have three children; Zhang Chu, Zhang Chen and Zhang mei.
On a sunny day,News outlets published that the Zhang cooperation has plans on demolishing the country side of Benjil, therefore paying demolition cost to those affected on their plan on building an urban amusement park.
The Wang family were watching the news at that time when it aired and they were shocked.
"What are we going to do now?" Wang Xiu asked not directly the question to anyone in a sober mood.
"Don't worry, nothing is going to happen to us"her mother Yan Xiu said trying to comfort everyone.
"Yes that's true,as long as they pay the money they promised,we can move somewhere else and start living our normal life"her father Wang ji added.
The conversation went on for a while before they all went to bed.
The next morning,as early as eight am,there was ruckus in the neighborhood.
"What's going on"Wang Xiu asked herself peeping from the window.
"Should we tell mom and dad?"her little brother Wang ling asked
"Yes we should"Wang Xiu said anxiously leaving the room to her parents room..
As she was about to knock,the door opened and her parents stepped out.
"Good morning mom and dad, Something is going on outside"Wang Xiu said
"Yes,let's go take a look"her mother said
*They arrived outside*.
"Why is it so sudden?"
"They just announced it yesterday and they want to start demolishing now!"
"What are we going to do now"
The people in the neighborhood kept complaining as the structural engineers kept getting ready to demolish the houses.
"Mom are they going to demolish the house now?" Wang ling asked tugging her clothes.
"It's ok,We are going to be fine"She replied trying to fight back the tears.
Without wasting time,they started to demolish the houses and in less than five hours,The neighborhood filled with little houses built with love were now crumbled into pieces.
Wang Xiu and her family went to her cousins house to pass the night.
*The next day*
Wang Ji and Yan Xiu went to the Mall to purchase some necessities and on their way back a car ran over and crashed Wang ji.
Hurriedly,he was rushed to the hospital on time and he needed instant surgery. The hospital insisted they must pay a down payment of fifty thousand yauns before they carry out the surgery which their family didn't have now.
"Mom let's collect our fee for the demolition now,Dad must not die"Wang Xiu said sobbing profeously.
"Yes that's what we should do.Stay here and remove the ten thousand in my bank account,I will go and collect the money now"her mother said while walking out in a rush..
Wang Xiu did exactly what her mother instructed and waited beside her father's hospital bed.
*One hour later*
"We are done for"Yan Xiu said walking into the ward with her clothes leaving disheveled and her eyes red due to her crying for a long time.
"Mom what happened?,Did you get the money?,Is it going to be enough for the surgery?,Dad is not going to die right?"Wang Xiu bombarded her mom with questions as she entered the ward.
"Xiuxui,they said they won't be paying us.According to them,they are going to spend a lot of money on developing the site so they cancelled the fees at the last moment"Her mom replied wailing.
"What!!"Wang Xiu exclamed.
"They promised to pay the fees, aren't they the biggest cooperation in China,the fees they are going to pay is like removing a drop of water from pacific ocean.That's not going to affect them or make them bankrupt.
"Xiuxui, there's nothing we can do. It's the Zhang cooperation, even the President can't confront them talkless of we normal and pennyless citizens.Let's just try begging the doctor "she said in one breath.
"Let's do that first, Dad's health is very important now.What of the driver that hit dad?"she asked calmly
"He ran off after the accident"Her mom said wiping her tears.
"Mom don't cry, let's go and beg the doctor so that dad will do the surgery"Wang ling said
The three of them went to the surgeon and knelt down begging him.
"Please sir,we don't have the money now,we would pay after the surgery"Wang Xiu said.
"Haha, you want to pay after the surgery?.. That's not allowed here.Infact we have seen lots of cases like yours.Shameless family,if you don't have the money then we are going to discharge the patient "The surgeon said ruthlessly before walking out of the office.
Later that evening,they were kicked out of the hospital and they went back to their cousin's house in hope of begging them for money.
"We don't have any money,take your father and get out"the couple shouted at Wang Xiu like she had offended them before
Dumbstruck, Wang Xiu asked "Uncle, aunt did we offend you in any way"
"You have always offended us,Get out or we will call the cops,we only allowed you guys to stay yesterday because we wanted to benefit from the fees.Now that you don't have any money, you should go, you are so useless.Such a cursed family"Her Aunt screamed closing the door on them
Her mom was shocked,how could her sister do such to her. She did not expect this behavior from her and it was like her heart was ripped in pieces.
They stopped a taxi and carried Wang ji into the car.
They stopped at a random hotel to spend a night..
