"What did you say?" Zhuzhu turned around to meet the Xu sisters, her eyes cold and icy.
Xu Jing almost fell backwards from the icy glare but she regained her composure.
"I said, you are not allowed to take anything that belongs to the Xu family out of this door," Xu Jing euniciated each word to her, eyebrows raised.
A mocking laugh followed after those words. Xu Lan sneered at Qin Zhuzhu.
"Everything here belongs to the Xu family. Even your shoes, clothes, bag, bracelet. Oh, and even your makeup. Weren't they bought with my Xu family's money?" Xu Lan said, her chin raised.
"Even the money that grandpa gave to you belongs to the Xu family. You have to return everything today! If not, You cannot leave! You are no longer part of this family!" Xu Jing added. The two sisters did a high five in front of Zhuzhu, celebrating the fact that they had successfully insulted her.
"So you want me to strip in front of you and leave like that?" Zhuzhu's eyes narrowed.
Xu Jing cocked her head to the side pretending to think.
"Well..... Not so extreme but something like that!" They were excited to see Zhuzhu embarrassed herself in front of the entire people in Shengjing.
They smirked and laughed as Zhuzhu began to put her luggage down. She took out her phone before she threw the bag into Xu Lan's arm, catching her off guard.
"Hey! Y-you!" Xu Lan scolded but Zhuzhu started to take her shoes off, kicking them at Xu Jing.
"Watch your dirty feet!" Xu Jing scolded.
"Oops! Sorry! You were in the way!" Zhuzhu grinned at them. It was the opposite reaction of what they expected of her. They thought that she would fall to her knees and begged them to let her keep her clothes and expensive bag.
The Xu sisters scowled at her. Qin Zhuzhu unbuttoned her jacket and threw it at them. They avoided it and realized that she was doing it on purpose.
"Stop doing that, you poor bitch!" Xu Jing cried.
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry! Did I hurt you?" Zhuzhu had a smirk on her lips. Xu Jing and Xu Lan were shocked. Did she get possessed by a demon or what?! The Qin Zhuzhu in front of them was so different from the one in the past who wouldn't dare to talk back and look at them like this!
Zhuzhu wiped the lipstick off her lips in a single swipe and the makeup on her face with a wet wipe. She threw the wipes at their feet.
"Qin Zhuzhu, how dare you -" Xu Jing opened her mouth.
Suddenly Zhuzhu threw stacks of money over their heads, some of the paper money hit them in the face!
"Too bad. I bought this clothes on my body from your Xu family. I don't have to strip, right? I'm sure your prestigious Xu family wouldn't want a cloth that has been dirtied by a poor heiress, hmm?" Qin Zhuzhu smirked coldly, her gaze darkened.
The Xu sisters quickly back away, suddenly feeling scared of her for the first time in their lives.
Then Qin Zhuzhu kicked the luggage at them until it toppled over and flattered Xu Lan's foot. She left with nothing in her hands but her phone which she bought with her own money.
"Ow! How dare you, bitch!?" Xu Lan screamed but Qin Zhuzhu was out of sight. Xu Jing and Xu Lan felt utterly humiliated!
"What happened? What's with all the ruckus!?" Their mother, Zhang Qing came rushing over.
"Mom! That Qin Zhuzhu is too much! Look what she did to us! My face hurts so much!" Xu Jing pretended to cry to gain her mother's sympathy.
"Mom! My foot hurts so much! Please tell my brother to teach her a lesson!" Xu Lan cried. Zhang Qing pulled both her daughters in a warm embrace and hugged them tightly. She pampered her daughters a lot. It's no wonder that they grew up spoiled.
"Qin Zhuzhu! I will make you pay for hurting my precious daughters!" Zhang Qing's eyes were filled with murderous intentions.
Qin Zhuzhu made her way to a pawn shop, barefooted. The rough road scraped at her feet until there were blisters and wounds. She walked as fast as she could away from the hell family, forcing herself to go on despite the pain.
Right now, she has no money to call a taxi or stay in a hotel. Not even the cheapest hotel there is. She used all her hard earned money to buy the clothes that she was wearing on her body from those two malicious women. Xu grandpa did give her money but overtime, she used that money on Xu Meng to buy him gifts for his birthday and anniversary. However, he had never once taken a look at the gifts.
She couldn't go and see her mother in this state. She didn't want her mother to worry about her. It broke her heart to see her mother working hard everyday just because she didn't want to put pressure on her daughter.
"Mom, I'll definitely give you a better life. Just wait," Qin Zhuzhu swore to the heavens.
"All those humiliations that we suffered, I'll repay them tenfolds!"
"Hello!" The shopkeeper sized her up and down and noticed that her shoes were missing and her feet were bleeding.
"Hi, I was wondering if I can pawn this," Zhuzhu took off the jade bracelet from her wrist. The jade bracelet was given to her by her late grandfather, her mother's father. She was reluctant to pawn it because it reminded her of the good old times with the old man.
But she had no choice as she was lacking in money. So she forced herself to give up her treasured jade bracelet.
"One day, I'll redeem it back," she said in her heart.
"This is good quality jade! I can only give you five hundred for this," the shopkeeper said.
"What!? Are you sure? This jade bracelet costs thousands, almost a million. It was also crafted by top jade experts," Zhuzhu said.
"I'm sorry. But as you know, the value of an item drops once a person pawns it. And you have been wearing this jade bracelet for a long time, causing it to look worn out. So the price I offered was very fair. Take it or leave it,"
