Hearing that Xia Cha could not attend high school in Yan City, Xia Zi was very happy.
So what if she was the top scorer? She still couldn’t go to school.
“Furong, you have a handsome and rich boyfriend now. Can you ask him for help so that I can go to the private high school in Yan City? If you can help me, I will obey your orders in the future!”
Xia Zi was usually arrogant at home. Being able to make her submit to her was also a sense of accomplishment for Xia Furong.
“Of course.”
Xia Zi widened her eyes and held Xia Furong’s arm excitedly. “Really? Ah! I can go to a private high school!”
Xia Furong pulled down Xia Zi’s hand that was holding her arm and smiled. “Little Aunt, don’t forget what you just promised me!”
.
“Of course, of course. As long as I can go to a high school, I can be your slave in the future!”
…
Xia Cha did not return home until dinner time.
The whole family was worried about her.
Seeing her return, Qiu Zhi hurriedly pulled her into the house and fetched some water to wash her face.
Xia Lan brought the dishes to the courtyard, and Qiu Zhi pulled Xia Cha out to eat.
After dinner, Qiu Zhi and Xia Zhenyuan asked Xia Cha, “Cha Cha, how is it?”
Xia Cha pursed her lips and said, “Dad, Mom, someone posted a video of me singing on the JP stage on the school forum, creating many rumors.”
“What?” The family was astonished.
Every time Xia Cha went to the JP stage, it was Xia Chuan who accompanied her. Later, the old residence increased Xia Chuan’s workload, and it was Xia Zhenyuan who took time every weekend to accompany her.
Everyone close to her knew that she was innocent.
However, the school would definitely not believe him if they testified!
“Tomorrow, I’ll go to the school to explain. My Cha Cha only sings and does nothing. She works so hard and keeps herself proper. Why can’t she study?” Xia Zhenyuan was furious.
Xia Cha held Xia Zhenyuan’s hand. “Dad, it’s useless.”
The person who reported her must have a certain status. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have posted it on the forum and let the matter spread so quickly.
Hearing that Xia Cha’s words were useless, Xia Zhenyuan frowned. He held Xia Cha’s hand and said, “Cha Cha, we’re not going to build our new house. Since you can’t go to No.1 High School. Dad wants you to study in an elite school.”
“Yes, even if we don’t build a house, we must let Cha Cha go to school,” Xia Lan and Xia Xing said in unison.
Qiu Zhi nodded with reddened eyes.
Xia Cha was touched by her family’s warmth and concern.
However…
“We must build the new house. I will find another way to attend school. I will not go to any school except for No.1 High School.”
Under Xia Cha’s insistence and persuasion, Xia Zhenyuan and Qiu Zhi could only listen to her and build a new house according to their original plan.
It was an auspicious day.
According to Wenfeng County’s tradition, anyone who built a new house would treat their family and friends to a meal.
The people from the Xia family’s old mansion came over.
Xia Zhenyuan had only invited them symbolically, but he did not expect them to really come.
Qiu Zhi’s eyelids kept twitching when she saw the people from the Xia family’s old mansion.
She felt that something bad was going to happen.
But today was a good day and she didn’t want to think too much about it.
Xia Lan helped Qiu Zhi cook in the kitchen while Xia Cha and Xia Xing entertained the guests in the main room.
As she poured the water, Xia Xing mumbled unhappily, “Those people at the old residence are really thick-skinned. They treated our family like that in the past, and now they actually have the nerve to come over for a meal?”
Xia Cha glanced at the people in the Xia family’s old residence. She frowned slightly when she saw Xia Furong wearing all luxurious brands.
She also didn’t know why she could recognize the expensive clothes and jewelry on Xia Furong at a glance. With the old residence’s conditions, it was impossible for Xia Furong to wear such expensive clothes.
Xia Cha suddenly remembered that she was reported by someone. She had a grudge against her and had a certain amount of money… could it be related to Xia Furong?
She remembered that Xia Furong was also at an arts school in Yan City.
Xia Cha pursed her lips tightly and looked at Xia Furong sharply.
It was best that this matter had nothing to do with Xia Furong. Otherwise, she wouldn’t let her off so easily!
Xia Furong was texting her boyfriend when she suddenly felt a sharp gaze on her. She looked up and saw Xia Cha. However, the moment she looked up, Xia Cha had already turned around.
Xia Furong sized up Xia Cha.
Xia Cha was wearing a cheap white dress with a thin waist. She had grown taller in the past year. Her arms and legs were slender, and her skin had turned white. She looked like a young lady.
Xia Furong coldly snorted. So what if she looked good? In the future, she would only be a junior high school graduate.
She was not on the same level as her.
There were more guests than usual, and Qiu Zhi cooked three tables worth of dishes.
As the man of the house, Xia Zhenyuan treated the guests warmly. Xia Zhenxiang and Xia Zhenli were jealous of him, but they did not show it on their faces. They kept on toasting him to drink.
Qiu Zhi saw that Xia Zhenyuan had drunk a little too much and went forward to persuade him to drink. Xia Zhenxiang could not help but berate, “Second Sister-in-law, men speak. Why is a woman like you interrupting?”
Xia Zhenli echoed, “That’s right. Second Sister-in-law, what’s the use of you controlling Second Brother like this? You might as well take care of your own daughter!”
Before Qiu Zhi could say anything, she heard Xia Zhenli say to the other guests, “Everyone, you don’t know yet, right? My second brother’s daughter, Xia Cha, is the top scorer of this year’s middle school examination, but she didn’t receive No.1 High School’s admission notice. It’s not because she didn’t get an admission notice to No.1 High School, but because her morals are corrupt. At such a young age, she went to a nightclub to sing. Tsk, if we put it nicely, she was singing. Who knows what kind of deal she was secretly making!”
“I was wondering why Second Brother and his family insisted on separating from the family and chose this barren mountain instead of the fruit land at home. So it turns out that they sold their daughter to that kind of place.”
The moment Xia Zhenli finished speaking, he received a heavy punch on her face.
Xia Zhenyuan punched Xia Zhenli to the ground. His eyes were red as he shouted angrily, “Third Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? Our Xia Cha is innocent and relies on her own ability to earn money!”
“Heh…” Ye Guixiang, who was sitting next to Xia Zhenxiang, sneered.” Of course it’s based on your own ability, but what ability? We don’t need to point it out, the people sitting here should be able to guess it. ”
Fang Liu helped Xia Zhenli, who had been punched, up. “Second Brother, your Cha Cha has done something shameful, and you’re still afraid of people talking about it? If she’s innocent, why didn’t No. 1 High School accept her? If she did, take out the admission notice!”
“That’s right, take out the acceptance letter! We will believe that your Xia Cha is innocent!”
With the Xia family’s family taking the lead, the other guests gradually began to believe that the second branch had started their business because of Xia Cha.
Just as the situation became tense, a lazy and light laughter was heard. “Tsk, what’s all this fuss about?”
Three figures walked in.
They were Huo Heng, Old Madam Huo, and Principal Wu.
